Clare Point of View
Holy macaroni and soon as Eli slowly pulled away from me and looked lovingly in my eyes. I realized and immediately tensed up. We kissed. And we didn't really stop. Eli's still holding me and I feel flustered. I awkwardly push him away and mumble "Eli." "What did I do wrong-" "Holy fucking shit dude." Drew breaks the silence that has fallen upon the other 4 friends. "I am not in the mood." Eli goes and sits back in his spot. "You seemed in the mood, just a moment ago." "What happened?" Adam looks horrified, at the scene he saw just before his eyes. "They kissed dipshit," "Wait, kiss is most likely an understatement, I meant fucking made out." Drew adds. I shoot him a death glare. I risk a glance at Eli and he's looking at me...Staring maybe. A small smile takes over my mouth and his eyes are trained on my lips, he looks in my eyes and smirks; how I wish I knew what he was trying to tell me. "Are we continuing the game or what?" Eli, always the outspoken one, speaks up. "Um yeah, I agree." I get out, noticing I need a 'drink of water'. "Of course she'd agree with Eli now. What a coincidence." Drew says sarcastically. "I need some water." I leave, excusing myself. I hear a faint 'me too'. I lean back against the dining room table. "What happened to you needing water?" Eli stands a mere 5 feet away from me...Give or take a little. "What happened to you needing water?" He raises one eyebrow. "I didn't really need any; I just wanted to be alone with you and not left alone with them." He nods his head in the direction of the living room. "Oh." "I'm off. I just wanted to be able to look at you intensely before I left and averted my gaze for a while. Don't kiss me anymore either." He adds on playfully. "Look at you, Mr. Einstein. And you kissed me." "Did you mean Einstein?" "I meant what I said." I cross my arms. "And I meant what I said." He winks and leaves. You meant what you said about what exactly? I've officially made it my mission to get him to kiss me again. This will be too easy. "Clare, come on, your Eli is waiting for you to come?" I remain rooted in my spot. "How do you know Alli?" She smiles brightly. "He asked me to come and get you. You're on his mind. Eeeppppp." "No. no. no eeeepping necessary. It is pretty adorable though, just a little." I find myself smiling. "When we go back out there, I don't wanna see you guys eye-fucking each other, okay?" She says giggling to herself. Alli takes things out of proportion at times. "You won't." I reassure her. I didn't promise, but I told her that I wouldn't be, which doesn't stop Eli and didn't stop Eli. The next day I went to school like a normal day and I saw Adam at my locker. "Clare what happened yesterday?" He said "What do you mean?" I said trying to be confused. "You know what I mean you and Eli kissing yesterday!'' Damn that didn't work. "That-that was nothing." I said trying to play it cool. "Well that didn't' look like nothing when your 7 minutes in heaven turn out to be a full make out session!" I looked at him with a little blush and then said "Adam! That was nothing at all but if you want to know Eli and I are just friends. Nothing is happening between us. Ok! We broke up for a reason. It was just a spur of the moment." I said a little loud so he hopefully understands. "Ok Clare if that's what you say." He then left for his next class, speed walking all the way around the corner. I just stood there dumb and went to my next class. English, the class I had with Eli and Adam, but we had 10 extra minutes so I decided to go early. It wasn't until later that I realized Adam went the wrong way for class.
Eli's pov:
I asked Adam excitedly, "Did you ask her?" "Yea I did she said that it was nothing and that you two are just friends, that nothing's going to happen, and that you guys broke up for a reason. " Adam replied. I was sad because I know she's my ex but I still love her. "But I think she just said that to get rid of me and stop asking her questions, so she might still like you." He said. I was happy but I was thinking if Clare wants me back she has to know what she missed out on when she dumped me. It may be a little hard to get some kind of help to get it through her head, that's only if she wants me back though; I have to do more investigating, next phase is requires Alli's help. I got interrupted by Adam. "Eli! Eli!" he said almost screaming. "What? Yea," I said fast. "Look!" he said pointing at the door way where Clare was standing. Then the bell rang to get to class. Clare was just staring at me; we were both just staring at eachother, standing outside of the classroom door, already late and just staring...Someone needs to break this unbreakable silence.
