Hey Guys! Thanks for the comments! I really enjoy them! So I suppose you should start reading this chaper…ENJOY (:
*Elis POV*
After I left the Dot, I ran home to be alone in my room. Just to my luck Adam was sitting on my bed waiting for me. Crap.
"Hey man. I just stopped by to- what happened?" He said getting up from the bed and walking towards me.
I just sighed and shook my head. "Clare…She told you." Adam said slowly. I nodded.
"Dude, explain to me everything that happened." He said.
After I told the whole story, Adam looked angrier than I did. I stared at Adam with confusion.
"You're such a jerk. Clare only dated one guy, Eli. One! And I told her to go for it, since we BOTH doubted you were going to come back to Toronto. And considering…" I glared at him.
"Eli, you're being a hypocrite! You're so lucky I don't tell her. It's only because it'll hurt her even more right now. And for the past 3 years I've been there for Clare, and I've kept my promises. I bet she feels horrible with herself! And you should too." Adam said and then stomped out of the house.
I screwed up badly…
Adam was right. I shouldn't have done that to Clare. I was angry. How could she do that to me? At the moment it felt like she just stomped on my heart. I didn't even let her talk. I'm such an ass… and a hypocrite.
I dated Julia. Sure it wasn't that serious, but it was dating. I feel horrible for saying those hurtful things to Clare. I was still mad at her, even though I broke the promise too.
I was madder at myself, than her. As I screamed at her, I saw her piercing blue eyes begging me to stop, yet I didn't. The Dot was packed, and we were the entertainment of the day thanks to me. I went crazy. I'd be lucky if she ever talked to me again.
I always thought that she wouldn't be the person to do that. Adam had a point. I was gone a really long time. She probably did think that I wasn't going to come back. After a while,I didn't even know if I was going to come back. I deserved to be told off by Adam…
I have to call Clare, or at least try. It's been a day, She still couldn't be that upset..
I texted Adam asking for her number, since her number changed from the last time I called to her. I began to dial and I felt so nervous. My palms were sweaty and my stomach was turning. But I had to call her.
"Hello?"
"Hey, um Clare." I said pacing around my room.
"Eli?"
"Y-Yeah. Clare, listen. I have to tell you something."
"I have to tell you something first." She said sighing. "I'm just so sorry I broke our promise. You have every right to be mad and scream or whatever. I feel terrible for doing that to you, even if it was only one guy. And it was a mistake. I would be so mad if you did that to me. I probably wouldn't want speak to you either…"
"Clare, it's alright. I'm sorry for screaming at you like that. I was gone a long time and I don't blame you for doubting if I was going to come back."
"Thanks Eli. And thanks for not breaking the promise even though I did. It means a lot."
"I…um- no problem Clare." I'm such an idiot.
"So, what do you have to tell me?"
"I just wanted to say sorry…"
"Well, it's ok." She said. "I have to go, talk to you later."
"Bye, Clare." I hung up and threw my phone on my bed.
I couldn't tell her. I can't just smash her heart like that. I have a feeling the longer I wait, the more it's going to hurt…
*Clare POV*
"Are you sure you're alright?" Adam asked for the tenth time.
"Yes, Adam. I'll be ok…" I rolled my eyes. I put my headphones on and blasted the music.
"Clare! Clare!" Adam said as he ripped them off.
"What!"
"Your phone is ringing…" I groaned and went downstairs to get my phone. Adam just chuckled at my annoyance.
"Hello?" I said hoping not to sound so annoyed.
"Hey, um Clare." A male voice said. I'd know that voice anywhere.
"Eli?"
"Y-Yeah. Clare, listen. I have to tell you something." He said sounding… very nervous.
"I have to tell you something first." I sighed and sat down on my couch. I started fidgeting with my fingers. I always do that when I'm really nervous. "I'm just so sorry I broke our promise. You have every right to be mad and scream or whatever. I feel terrible for doing that to you, even if it was only one guy. And it was a mistake. I would be so mad if you did that to me. I probably wouldn't want speak to you either…" I said. I heard Adam start walking down the stairs, but then stop. I knew he was listening in on my conversation.
"Clare, it's alright. I'm sorry for screaming at you like that. I was gone a long time and I don't blame you for doubting if I was going to come back." He said still sounding really nervous.
"Thanks Eli. And thanks for not breaking the promise even though I did. It means a lot." I said. Adam scoffed. Why did he do that?
"I…um- no problem Clare." He said. Was he still mad at me?
"So, what do you have to tell me?"
"I just wanted to say sorry…"
"Well, it's ok." I said. "I have to go, talk to you later."
"Bye, Clare." I hung up and I saw Adam walk into my living room.
"You forgave him for being such an inconsiderate jerk to you?" Adam yelled.
"Adam, he was sorry! And it was my fault he was mad in the first place…"
"Clare, believe me, it wasn't." He said lowering his voice. "You have no reason to be sorry at all..."
"Huh? Adam you're not making sense…"
"Forget it. Let's just go upstairs and chill. Ok?" He said already walking up the steps.
"Uh, Alright." I said dropping the subject.
I could tell he didn't want to tell me something. I can read Adam like a book. When he's sad or mad or nervous. And I knew something wasn't right.
So what did you think? It's kind of long. Do you guys like long chapters? Anyways, Review please. They make my day :D
