Chapter 4
Eli and Clare Fan fiction
"Eli-" I said in a soft whisper, he looks absolutely stunning even when he's sleeping, his dark brown hair was messy but so perfect, "Eli" I said again in my regular voice, "hey beautiful" he said has soon as he opened his eyes, those two words almost made me start hyperventilating, "Eli-" I stuttered" "Eli-" I tried again but before I could stutter again he already pulled me in for another amazing kiss, this one was not like the last, his soft warm lips touched mine ever so lightly, then as he put his warm hand on my cheek, and I put my hand on his , his tongue traced my bottom lip, immediately I pulled away, my eyes wide, but I don't know why, why was the question, why did I stop our intimate kissing? Why did I like him? Why? "Clare-" he started, "Clare" he said, "I'm so sorry" he said in the sweetest tone, why in the world was he sorry? "I went to far" he said with his head down, "no you didn't" I blurted out. maybe even to quickly, "okay saint Clare" he said in his humorous tone, followed by the famous smirk, "we should get you home" he said, as he held out his hand for me to take.
It was amazing how our hands fit so perfectly together, as we were walking I was thinking about last night how he was so warm, so comfortable, then I remembered "Eli what about the blankets?" I asked, him sounding as he just remembered too, "I'll get them later". Eli going into the woods all alone? No, I can't let him; I defiantly can't let anything happen to him. I can't lose him. Ali is psychic. As we were making our way out of the woods I saw his hearse parked illegally on the side of the road, "nice Eli" I said pulling off one of the dozens of parking tickets, as I got in he started driving fast. Too fast. 90 miles per hour. As he came to a skidded stop, I remembered. My parents, I snuck out, they are going to kill me. Eli noticed my sudden shock, "Clare what's wrong? He asked in a worried tone, huh, Eli Goldsworthy. Worried. About me, "my parents-" I tried to say but I felt as if I was choking, "I snuck out they are going to kill me" I said my stomach doing flips, "ok Clare I think its time for me to meet your parents" that took me by a bigger shock. Eli Goldsworthy and my parents? No way. "What Clare I cant meet your parents?" he asked in a hurt tone covered by humor. "Ok fine Eli" I said staring straight at the road ahead, my parents are going to kill me in my sleep.
"Are you coming?" Eli quoted me from when we skipped class. I hadn't even noticed we were parked in my drive way, what a shock to my parents, theirs a hearse in their driveway. I opened the hearse door so slowly; I have no idea what is going to happen. As soon as I opened the front door I saw my mom sitting at the table with her makeup tear stained and my dad leaning on the counter holding a beer. He never drinks, never, not ever.
"Mom!" I blurted out not remembering Eli's presence, "Clare where were you", she asked in a weak tone, almost cracking, "I-I" I stuttered, still in shock, "we were working on our English papers early this morning" Eli said, I was just now remembering his presence, I glanced at the clock it was almost 3:20. "Yeah right" my dad said in a slurred angry tone, "You weren't in your room last night" he said in a more furious tone, I stepped closer to Eli, grabbing his hand behind my back, I was scared my dad was going to lose control. "See Helen!" my dad screeched at my mom, I squeezed Eli's hand tighter, "This is your entire fault" he screeched at her again, I was truthfully terrified. "Our daughter was out with a boy!" my dad said in an ear piercing tone, if flinched, Eli grabbed my hand even tighter if that was possible, by now my dad raised his hand with a beer bottle in it and smashed it to the floor, it made aloud smash, a tear was streaking down my face, my dad raised his hand once more and slapped my mom. Eli was pulling on my hand, I thought he was trying to make a run for it, I wasn't able to let go, but he was actually pulling me out the door. My dad was headed towards us with his hand raised ready to strike again.
