Eli's Pov:
So I was driving Clare home in an awkward moment and then I was going to my house to talk and play video games with Adam. We get to Clare's house and I said "I'll miss you" and Clare rolls her eyes, biting her bottom lip and says, "I'll see you tomorrow at school." I sadly smiles wishing that it would be that way forever. We got home and when I open the door Bullfrog say "Hey Eli where have you been. Oh hey video game kid! " I rolled my eyes when my dad said Video game kid to Adam "I was at Adam doing homework and we got bored so we went to the movies and Dad how many times do I have to tell you HIS NAME IS ADAM" I said He looked at me and said "You call him Adam I call him Video game kid" "Well ADAM and I are going to play video games" We went upstairs and started to play modern warfare. After 10 minutes Adam said "Ah I won at your game what now." I just sat there not really caring but having Clare on my mind. Adam looks at me and said "Hey whats wrong. I never bet you and if I do I know you would want rematch." Then I looked at Adam and he was thinking. "Hey didn't you have to tell me something?"
Eli rubs his face, hoping to rub off all the worries, knowing that he knows that he has to tell Adam and eventually Clare. "I'm moving." Eli looks anywhere but at him. Everything seems to float away. He's leaving Adam and ...Clare. "Dude, no jokes right now, right?" Adam nervously laughs. "Are you serious?" He throws the video game control somewhere on the bed and comes leaning down near Eli. "Man, are you for real?" Eli bitterly nods his head. "What? When?" "Exactly a week from today. We're moving to stupid California. I'm just gonna willingly go. Why stay?" Eli whispers. "What about Clare?" Adam whispers too. "What the hell about Clare!" Adam gets louder, clearly upset. "I don't know!" I yell back, feeling my eyes watering. Fuck, this was not supposed to be hard. "I wanna stay. I think I will." "Dude, you can stay with me. That's it. You can move and stay with me. Yeah." Adam calms down., thinking everything will work out. "I don't think I wanna stay if Clare doesn't love me. I can't handle being near her anymore and not being able to call her mine." "But you know she does." Adam leans down, lowering himself onto the bed. "Honestly I dont. I wanna think she does. But I don't know and if she does, I just wanna hear her say it." "Wow, so the thing that would make you leave, everything behind, is not getting a measly I love you from Clare." Adam gets angry once again. "Really Eli Really? Clare loves you, but I doubt she'll ever say it again to you." "Just leave, Adam leave! I need to think this all through. Eli fell asleep silently crying himself to sleep, even though he'd never admit it, he felt broke down and unsure of just about everything at those moments.
*The next day at school*
Eli looked a complete mess. He had dark purplish eye circles under his eyes as if he hadn't slept in weeks. His eyes didn't hold its usual spark, he looked as if he were just existing but he wasn't living at that moment. He looked up and wanted nothing more than to just turn around and go back home, than to see Clare and know he had this burden on him. As he was walking up, Adam looked up and left the other way down the hall. "Eli." Clare mutters, hoisting a smile up on her face. She even looked a little down. "Adam said you have something to tell me, sounded pretty serious." She closes her locker, giving Eli her undivided attention. "I do have something to tell you. unfortunately." "Spit it out Eli, You're giving me the chills." "I'm moving." Before Clare responds, she looks at Eli's face for seriousness and once she realizes he's serious, her emotions on her face change as every second goes by; first curious, to surprised/shock, then to what the hell, then to sad. "Eli-" Her voice cracks. "What do you mea-I mean when exactly?" Her eyes are watering up quicker than Adam's and 2 tears fall from her right eye before 1 falls from her left. "6 days." She wraps her arms around me, making a scene as more and more kids turn to watch us. "But I don't want you to go, please Eli please." Tears fall freely from her eyes, as I hold her tighter than I ever have, wishing I would never have to let her go. "Clare, calm down, I don't need to cry again." She whispers in my ear, "Please, don't leave me." She literally breaks down. Eli grabs her bag from the floor and holds Clare up before holding her wedding style again. "Calm down, I don't wanna ever have to leave you." He mutters in her ear repeatedly, walking swiftly down the hall, looking for an empty classroom, any empty classroom. He stumbles upon one and locks the door behind him, before he falls to the floor with Clare right beside him. She is crying like that's all she knows how to do. "Clare, I don't wanna leave you." Slow tears make their way down Eli's face. He can't comprehend correctly right now and he does what he only hopes will get Clare to stop crying somewhat. He kisses her. A kiss full of need, no longer want right now, but both need and want. He wraps his arm around her and her hands move to his hair. She pulls back to breathe. "Eli?" "Don't leave." She looks down. "I don't want to." Eli breathes hard. "Tell me you're not going to move." Eli once again says, "I don't want to move." "That's not what I want you to say to me." She looks up, sobbing. Eli connects their lips together, "Tell me you love me." He says in between kissing her. "What?" She gets out as Eli kisses on her neck. He presses his lips to hers again, "Clare, tell me you love me.
