I am so sorry I didn't update for the past few days or so. I would have updated last night, but I was just exhausted. I was also busy and I was grounded from the computer one day, but I'm back so here's chapter 3! Yayyyy! :D

I'm going to try and make this chapter have less drama by the way, I don't want to have too much drama here :P


"Wait so you like me? I uh never really thought you would" Eli liked Clare too, he just never actually thought someone like Clare would fall for him. He was the complete opposite of her, but they did have a few things in common.

"Wait you mean you've been trying to impress me or you just tried to um get me to…like you?" The two were now walking around, ignoring everything that had happened.

Oh the two were destined to be. Eli kept that in mind anytime they were together or he saw her walk by. It seems like he's head over heels for Clare. He thought if Clare didn't like him back, he would definitely try to avoid her. Eli hadn't been so "in love" with a girl he met not long ago. He believed this to be,

"Love at first sight" Eli stopped Clare and faced her. "You're such a mystery to me, your like the opposite of me, hey "opposites attract" right? Well yes I do like you "

"Eli" Clare whispered his name so faint she could barely hear herself say his name. "I like you too" She smiled as she leaned towards him. He stopped her a few inches before their faces smooched together.

"Tell me, why were dating that crazy guy?" He said pulling his head back. He could see Clare's pretty blue eyes. I wish I could kiss your eyeballs, Eli thought.

"Well he never really asked me, he dragged me into the relationship after Jenna broke up with him. He said he was sorry that we broke up," Clare said as she continued to walk with Eli.

"Well then he must be a very stupid person, and a jerk."

"Indeed. He's just so ugh, I can't believe I even went out with him in the first place!" Clare began to fume.

"Whoa calm down Clare, don't need to start attracting more people. I get it though, you were furious with him. You hate him, but its over. You have a new beginning to last forever" He winked at her.

"What is that supposed to me - " Eli, once again, stopped her placing his hands on her shoulders.

"Does me telling you I really like you, mean anything to you?" At first Clare was confused, but then it hit her. Hit her right on the lips.

It was like Eli had stalled to get Clare to not even pay attention so he would surprise her with a kiss. She returned the favor wrapping her arms around his neck. She smiled into the kiss and quickly realized something.

"Eli," She said pulling away. "I have to get home. I want to check on my parents"

"Why would you want to?" He asked. He didn't quite know exactly what was happening.

"They've been fighting. Not much infront of me, but loud enough for me to hear."

"You want a ride?" He asked pulling out his keys and dangling them infront of her.

"Please?" Clare asked.

"How about you give yourself a ride and walk?" He said with heavy sarcasm. She began to joke along. She had to admit that playing along with his sarcasm could get pretty funny sometimes.

"Okay I'll walk then, bye!" She turned around and began walking away from Eli.

He followed after her but she turned it into a game. To Eli, it looked as if she was moving away from him gracefully, even as she tripped and began laughing. Eli walked over to her before she could get up and offered her a hand. She smiled and grabbed his hand and stood up.

"Thanks Eli, your turn!" She said as she pushed Eli towards the ground. With quick thinking, she knew Eli would try to bring her down with him but this time he outsmarted her. She fell right on top of him. She was staring right at his face.

"Well isn't this quite awkward?" Eli asked focusing on her.

"Well if my parents were to see this, it would be very awkward." She said dusting herself off as she got up. He got up after her grabbing her hand.

"But they aren't."

"Well there's other people too not to mention families with little kids snooping around" She said pointing out a little kid who just looked into a bush finding some sort of trash.

"You worry too much about anything. You need to stop being such a pessimist"

"I am not! Whatever I still do need to get home anyway, my parents can be fight-ugh" She knew Eli was right. He raised an eyebrow and smirked at her.

"Ha" He released from his lips. "Well I'll give you a ride. Come on" He said walking with Clare to his car.

"I still can't believe you drive a…a hearse. Doesn't that creep you out? You drive a vehicle that carried dead people" She shivered at the thought of being in the same car as a dead person.

"No you'd get used to it. It's actually pretty neat" He shrugged. "Now are you going to get in or walk home?" He said as he was already sitting in the driver seat while she wasn't paying attention and still hasn't opened the passenger door.

"Oh yeah sorry" She said getting into the car. Clare didn't know what to talk about so she stayed quiet thinking of what to start a conversation with. She heard sirens off in the distance towards her house. She feared the worst of course.

"Clare it's probably nothing big," he said. It was as if he could read her expressions. He knew she was worried. He knew she thought it involved her and it worried him a little bit too.

"I think its pretty big if there's about 20 police cars and a SWAT team in front of my house! What if K.C. did this?" She panicked as she got closer to her house.

"Well only negative things happen when you think too much of the negative." Clare ignored Eli throwing herself towards her house after rushing out of the hearse.

"Ma'am it is a dangerous situation. We had a foot pursuit that lead to this, please refrain from this area." An officer said stopping Clare in her tracks. "Apparently this started from a fight at some park, evaded police and ran off, and ended up here"

She was to surprised to say anything. She walked back to Eli with a sad look. She thought K.C. was a nice kid at first but he's changed all of a sudden. He became more violent.

"K.C. has my parents hostage," She said as she sprawled onto the hood of Morty. Her eyes were bawling with salty tears. "This is all my fault. I should've stayed in my room and-"

"Clare stop" Eli interupted her sitting next to her. There was something about his voice that seemed comforting to her. No matter what he said she would feel like smiling.

"Well-" She began but stopped as she heard a gunshot. "No" She said choked up. Her voice sounded weak compared to his. She didn't even want to look to where she heard the loud bang. She closed her eyes and pressed her back down against the hood. She even thought for a moment that SHE was the one who was shot.

Eli stood there trying to understand what exactly may have happened. He had to admit to himself that he was also a negative person but he was the positive kind of negative person.

Sorry I didn't know how to end this one so I tried to end it in a good way? I don't know what kind it was but it's an end. An end to this chapter I mean.

So tell me guys what you want to see in the next chapter. I want to put your ideas in this story :)
