Chapter 6: Happiness
Hello and welcome to chapter six! Really sorry for the late update. Drama is brewing at Degrassi CS but you'll just have to read to find out what! All I have to say is review review review! Comments make the author happy! Ok enough chatter! To the story!
….
It had felt like minutes had passed, but the movie had ended and soon so would their night. Clare yawned and looked at her watch. 9:30. "Tired already Edwards? That has to be a new record" Eli joked.
Clare laughed "Not tired, just relaxed" she smiled. Without even looking she could tell Eli was smiling too. She could fall asleep right then and there but she knew her Dad wouldn't like coming home to find her asleep on top of Eli. Ever since the night he came over for dinner her parents never totally trusted him.
Clare looked up at Eli and smiled "I wish you didn't have to go" she said.
"About that" Eli smirked "When is your Dad coming home again?"
Clare looked at her watch "I think he said 11:00" she said smiling "That means we have a whole hour and a half to spend together"
"What do you have in mind?" Eli Smirked.
Clare laughed "Absolutely nothing"
"Then that's what we will do!" Eli exclaimed grapping the TV remote. He chose a channel and set the remote down on the coffee table. He gently picked up Clare's hand and intertwined their fingers.
Whenever he was with her he was filled with warmth. She made him feel happy. He could feel her slowly breathing on top of him. A smile spread across his face as he placed a soft kiss in her auburn curls.
Clare woke up seeing the sunlight flooding through her window. She yawned and slowly stepped out of bed. It was Saturday. Today was the day her parents would switch for the week. Her Mom would come in and discuss the week with her Dad.
She slipped on her jean dress and got ready for the day. Soon she would be getting ready for school. Spring break was almost over and soon Degrassi CS would be filled with gossip and drama again.
The Anti-Grapevine was the main place to find the latest gossip. It was the main drama creator. No one had any idea who wrote what was on the Anti-Grapevine or how they knew the small part of the real story that they actually told. Clare had only been on it a few times. Eli was usually the reason they talked about her. The site hadn't been active since spring break started, but Clare knew that would change soon enough.
Once she was ready, Clare headed down stairs just in time to see her father leaving. She gave him a quick hug goodbye then smiled at her Mom. She was excited for a whole week with her, but mostly she was excited that she didn't have to do all the cooking for a week.
Clare decided that her last week of break would be spent with friends. She picked up her phone and called Adam.
"Hello?" his voice questioned over the phone.
"Hey Adam, its Clare." She said.
"Oh! Hey Clare, What's up?"
"I was just wondering if you wanted to have lunch at Little Miss Steaks today. If you're free of course"
"Uh. Yea that sounds great! Meet you there?" He said
"Sure that sounds perfect" Clare said with a smile.
"Hey is Eli coming?" Adam said before she hung up the phone.
"He could if you want" Clare answered.
"That sounds great. Just like old times" Adam said he hung up the phone.
Clare smiled and sent a text to Eli.
To: Eli Goldsworthy
From Clare Edwards
Hey! Meeting Adam at Little Miss Steaks. Wanna come?
Clare couldn't even shut her phone before he responded.
I'm limping out now.
Clare laughed and slipped her phone into her pocket. She grabbed her jacket and headed for the door.
"Mom! I'm heading out to lunch!" Clare yelled. She left the house not waiting for an answer. She started to walk down the street towards Little Miss Steaks.
Adam slipped on his favorite beanie and walked into the kitchen. Drew was out doing who knows what and his Mom was at work. He wrote a short note in case one of them came home before him and headed out the door to meet Clare and Eli at Little Miss Steaks.
