Chapter 5:

Sunday seemed to have come and gone, however I did get a call on my wizard from Jess. She asked where I was considering that I was weeks late coming home from our family vacation. She was really concerned, so I told her how our time machine broke down and how I'm spending time in the year 2011. She honestly felt bad and wished she could do something, but there wasn't much she could do. She informed me on what was going on with everyone back home in the future, and I notified her with everything that has happened to me. I told her all about the friends I was making, although our conversation was cut short due to the fact that it was extra money between the two different centuries.

Soon Monday morning came, as I awoke to the hologram version of me, portrayed from my clock.

"Its 7 o'clock, time to wake up, Clare! And don't forget about your history test today!" it exclaimed. I had to make a mental note not to be so cheerful when I record this next time; it was quite annoying.

I got out of bed, showered and jumped through the dressing hoop. I was dressed in my Degrassi uniform, and my hair and make up was done. Ready to go, I sat in the kitchen and waited for Riley. I haven't talked to Eli since Saturday night, and I kept picking my brain to find something to say to him when I see him today. I couldn't tell him the truth; it was probably bad enough that Alli already knew.

"Hey, you ready?" Riley asked descending the staircase.

"I'm as ready as I'll ever be," I was unenthused, and really didn't feel like going to school today.

"What's wrong?" my brother picked up on my attitude, while we walked to school.

"Just Eli. I don't know what to say to him," Riley knew everything about me; I always told him about my situations. He was such a great big brother and knew the exact things to say. His advice seemed to help all the time.

"Ah, I see. You should tell him how you feel. And tell him the truth, but just leave the whole future part out of it," he comforted me.

"How exactly do you suppose I do that?" I challenged him.

He thought for a moment before he spoke, "Say that you want to be with him, but you're scared that you're going to have to move again. Tell him that you don't want to hurt him if we do move, and that a long distance relationship probably won't work out too well." It seemed like Riley had thought about this a lot too. Maybe he had someone he needed to say this to as well.

"That's good, thanks," I admitted and hugged him. "But you know I'm always here to talk to, if you need someone," I noticed Riley has been keeping to himself lately; not really sharing his emotions or what's been going on in his life, so I felt, I needed to say that. This way he knows I won't judge him or his dilemmas, and that I'll listen carefully to help him just as he helps me.

"Yeah, I know," he said with a playful smile as he slapped me on the back, looking up to the school that was now in front of us. I glanced around to see who was here. Alli was at one of the picnic tables with Jenna and Fiona. Adam was talking with his brother Drew and KC. Then I saw the sight that nearly made me break down into sobs. However, it made my blood boil in anger and jealousy as well.

Eli was walking from his car with his armed hung over Imogen's shoulders. I guess I put this upon myself from what happened the other night. I pushed him away and straight into Imogen's arms…literally. How could he go to her just like that though? He might have thought I didn't trust him before, but now he gave me a reason not to.

Even though Eli didn't notice me, Imogen did. She had an expression of victory on her face that laughed in mine. I tried my best to stay calm and not rip her hair out.

As I noticed my brother already ditched me to hang out with Zane, I strolled over to Alli and the others.

"Hey Clare," they all chimed in together. I just nodded my head for acknowledgement, yet they could tell that I was upset. Alli was the only one brave enough to ask though.

I confessed to them what happened that Saturday night with Eli. I told them about my conflict, but in my brother's words; the truth without the future part. Alli was the only one who knew the real truth, so she understood more than Jenna and Fiona. It was times like this where I was glad Alli knew because she was able to help me.

The beginning of my day was kind of slow. Homeroom was a blur. I had a test in History which was pretty easy considering I already traveled to the major historic events in our country and witnessed them in person. Then Spanish was just boring. All we did was take notes. Lastly, English came and that was probably the most awkward class I ever had. Eli didn't glance back at me once like he normally did, and Adam was oblivious to the whole situation. The class was uncomfortable, yet lunch was going to be much worse, with both Imogen and Eli there.

I left English without a word spoken to Eli. Once lunch came, Eli sat at the opposite end of the table than me. Fiona filled the empty seat next to me. I was quiet throughout lunch aside from the 'yeahs' and the 'ohs' during the conversations. I couldn't stop thinking about how I messed up big time. I didn't even have the guts to talk to him and tell him how I felt. I was too crushed seeing him with Imogen.

Before, I didn't think anything could get any more upsetting, until I heard my brother yelling from down the hall.

"Clare!" Riley shouted, "Clare! I have some news!" he cried out as he ran up to me. As soon as he reached our table he leaned on my chair and huffed and puffed, trying to bring his heart rate down, so he could tell me what happened. Everyone stared at him anticipating on hearing what was so important.

"Spit it out!" I ordered; the suspense was killing me.

"Dad called. We're going home," he looked straight in my eyes without a bluff. I dropped the sandwich I was eating onto the table exposing the ingredients inside. I looked over at Alli who was just as surprise as I was. Was this really happening? My dad actually fixed the time machine?

Everyone looked at me now; their faces expressed sympathy yet grief. However there was only one person who I stared at. Eli's face was unreadable; there was no telling on how he felt.

I didn't know if I should be happy or sad, so it was a mixture of both. I was pleased to go back home to 2150, but I didn't want to say goodbye to all my new friends…and Eli.

My dad said it was most likely going to take a while for him to fix the time machine, so something had to be up, but what? I guess there was only one was to find out…
