Clare sighed as she opened the front doors to Degrassi community school ready to face her first day back after winter break. She and Eli had gotten back together just five days earlier and nothing had gone wrong yet. She took that as a good sign. They hadn't talked much since the night of the party; they sent a few texts here and there, but nothing too exciting. Even though they hadn't talked much, she still felt amazed by how everything worked out. Although she was dreading today since she just didn't feel up for school, she was excited to see Eli and when she turned the corner of the hallway to go to her locker, she got butterflies seeing him standing there waiting.

"Hey, Clare" Eli said, while a smirk appeared across his face.

"Hey" Clare replied smiling back at him while the butterflies continued to grow in her stomach.

She continued to walk and stood beside him while opening her locker.

"So..." she started," how was the rest of your break?" After asking him she looked directly at him waiting for his reply.

"It was alright, I guess. Pretty uneventful, would have been better if I had gotten to spend some time with you." He said as he continued to smile at her.

"Trust me; I would have loved to have spent time with you rather than Jake's side of the family for three days straight. I thought I was going to go insane" She said with a small laugh while she placed some of her textbooks into her locker and grabbing out others.

"I'm sorry" he said," That sounds awful, really."

"Don't worry about it, as long as I get to spend some time with my boyfriend soon?" right as she said it she was thinking it was going to taste like a foreign word on her tongue but was surprised at how natural it felt. Immediately a smile was placed on Eli's lips.

"Of course" He said while he grabbed her hand and intertwined his fingers with hers after she had closed her locker. They began to make their way down the hallway to their classes. Once Eli made it to the door of his Civics class he immediately stopped.

"Well..." he began," This is me."

He looked in towards the class and saw Fiona wave at him and point to the seat she has clearly saved him, next to her.

"I'll see you at lunch?" He asked her while turning back to face her and slowly leaned down.

"Alright" Clare replied before reaching up to meet his lips with hers for a brief moment.

After removing her hand from his grasp and making her way down the hallway to her biology class, she couldn't help but fight the huge smile that dared to cross her face. She was with Eli again. Her Eli and she could not be any happier.

...

"So, looks like you and Saint Clare have fallen right back into the pattern of being annoyingly yet cutely in love" Fiona said while raising her eyebrow at him.

"I wouldn't say in love..." Eli said with confusion in his voice," Well at least not for her. I don't know how long it's gonna to take for that to happen again."

"I wouldn't be so sure. She sure looks like she is." She said while watching the smile slowly appear on his face.

"You don't know what you're talking about." Eli said matter of factly.

Fiona gave Eli a look before continuing," Yeah, I mean what would I know about what a girl looks like while she's in love?"

Eli just chuckled in response knowing that she was referring to her and Imogen. At first he was mostly just shocked that the two of them had gotten together but at the same time he had known it was only a matter of time before something happened between them two.

"You really think she is?" he asked, his voice full of hope," I mean I don't want her to feel like she needs to tell me she is just to make me happy."

"No, Eli, it really looks like she is. I know you two had some problems before, a lot of them, but I think things are different now. I mean look at you! You're already doing so much better Eli. Just like I told Imogen, You're an amazing guy and any girl would be lucky to have you."

A blush began to form on his cheeks before he could reply to her.

"Thanks Fi, that means a lot."

"No problem. Now let's starts on our project for Perino. Wanna be my partner?" Fiona asked.

"Sure Thing" Eli replied.

...

Eli was laying in his bed thinking about Clare. They had already spent three days at school together as a couple and her lips never graced his again after that one kiss before Civics class. He decided that that really needed to change. He decided to text Clare.

"Hey...what are you up to?"-Eli.

She responded almost immediately.

"Nothing really. Just doing a little bit of reading. Why?"-Clare.

He wondered whether he should ask her and decided to just go for it.

"I was wondering if you maybe wanted to come over for a bit. You know...Spend some time with your boyfriend ;)?"

Clare laughed at Eli's proposal but also took in a tiny exhale noting the use of that word. She like hearing him say it.

"Love to. What time?"-Clare

"I'll pick you up in ten?"-Eli

"Sounds Good."-Clare

Clare quickly got out of bed and changed into some leggings and a light pink v neck. She grabbed her phone off of her nightstand and went downstairs.

"Hey mom, I'm going to Eli's for a bit. Is that okay with you?" Clare asked tentatively. She had already told her mom about them and she seemed alright with it after quite a long discussion.

"Sure, Clare. Be back by ten please." Helen replied glances up from the magazine she was reading on the couch.

Clare stepped outside to sit on the front steps and wait for him. She closed her eyes as the chill of the Toronto wind breezed across her face. She began drifting into thought before she heard a car pull up. She opened her eyes and squinted while they adjusted to the light. Once she realized it was Eli a smile crossed her lips. She stood up and walked around to the passenger side door.

"Hey you" Eli said while Clare climbed in next to him.

"Hi" Clare replied looking over at him before grazing his hand with her own and wrapping her fingers through his.

Eli smiled as he felt Clare's hand grab his own. He swore his heart picked up its pace just from that little bit of connection.

" So, what are you planning we do on this fine Thursday evening?" Clare asked glancing over at him.

"I was thinking we could maybe watch a movie in my room. Maybe some cuddling?" Eli asked, his voice laced with hope.

"Sounds lovely" Clare replied.

She hadn't been into Eli's room since cleaning it and she knew they never made much progress. She realized now that Eli was better, and maybe he had cleaned up his room by himself. She wasn't going to question him on this though. She was just hoping for the best and expecting the worse.

Reviews? :) thaaanks ! 3 hopefully Eli wasn't just on his phone in that promo and Clare was on top of him ! ;)
