Chapter 10

Clare's P.O.V.

My mom didn't find out about me skipping school yesterday. Luckily, the school called after I got home making it possible for me to answer the phone before my mother.

I had walked to school today, dismissing my mother's pouting. I looked around the school yard. Alli sat on top of a table talking to Eli, Adam sitting next to her. They both seemed engrossed into what Eli was saying. When I approached them, Alli's head whipped towards me and she smiled widely. Was I missing something?

I sat on the bench next to Eli. " Um, is there something on my face?" I asked when Adam began to stare at me as well.

Eli took my hand in his. " Only beauty."

Adam rolled his eyes. " You guys give me the runs," he said as he gathered his things. " See ya in English." Then he walked off, catching up to a girl that I think was named Bianca.

Alli laughed. " Lucky you, Clare."

" What?" I asked, truly confused.

Eli grinned. " I told her about our little adventure."

I stared at him. " Adventure? I don't think a trip from the living room to your room is an adventure."

Alli smirked. Oh Lord, is everyone becoming like my boyfriend? " Think about it, Clare." She got her stuff together and left, throwing a light ' Bye' over her shoulder.

I thought for a moment then when I got it, my cheeks burned with embarrassment. " You didn't ell her about...that did you?"

He smiled and slung his arm over my shoulder drawing me close. " What's wrong with telling her?"

I blushed even redder. " Well, um...the kiss...uh...it was intense. I-intimate."

His lips brushed my briefly. " Would you rather it would have been like that-" then he kissed me hard against my lips causing my knees to go weak " Or like that?"

My head was already spinning. " I like the second one better. Yeah, much better."

He grinned then glanced over shoulder and frowned. I turned to see what he had seen. Fitz stood at the school's entrance, his eyes on me. Our eyes locked and I felt a chill sweep up my spine. I didn't like that look. I quickly turned back to Eli. His eyes were on me, a worried look passed through. Then, just as quickly as it had come, it was gone.

He smiled and stood up extending his hand for me to grabbed. I stood up and took his hand, wrapping it over my shoulders, my arm around his waist.

He smirked. " Feeling bold, Edwards?"

I smiled. " Yes. Feeling shy, Goldsworthy?"

He drew me even closer and kissed my neck just as we passed Fitz. He glared at him then smiled at me. " Not even the least bit."

Eli's P.O.V.

Ugh! Fitz. I swear, if he looks at Clare like that again, I'm gonna-

" Eli?" Clare said beside me.

I loosened my grip on her shoulders. " Sorry, I was just thinking about...nothing. Never mind."

She looked at me worried, but she simply brushed it off and began to talk about or next assignment in English. I rolled my eyes. Leave Clare to make a serious moment into cram time. I loved her so much. I felt a blush creep to my cheeks at that thought. Love her? Wow, I'm sprung. I looked down at her as she smiled and waved at people while we walked down the hall. Then I started to pay attention to people's looks.

I smirked and leaned down to whisper into Clare's ear. " Don't look now, but I see some pretty jealous faces."

She grimaced. " Really? You see them, too? Aw, I don't want every girl in the school to hate me."

I rolled my eyes. They were going to come loose as long as I was with Clare. I'd take that price any day though. " No, not them. The guys. I'm so proud to be their target."

She frowned. " That's not true. They aren't paying any attention."

I pointed at some boys standing next to lockers stabbing me with their eyes.

We arrived at her locker and she opened it saying, " That's cold."

I snorted. " I don't really care."

She frowned. " I do." Then she turned away from me to the boys.

I don't know what she did, but they turned away, their heads hung in shame. She turned back to me with a smile. " Problem solved."

I smiled. " Clare, you are so delightful."

She blushed. " Stop that."

I tilted my head to the side. " Stop what?"

She looked at me for a moment seeming to have a hard time looking away. " Y-your eyes. Stop making them do that sparkly thing."

I smirked. " That's just natural, baby."

She giggled. " Come on."

I walked her to her class. When we got to the door, I peaked in to see if the teacher was looking. She was. I grinned. Perfect. I kissed Clare thoroughly. When I backed away, she nearly fell.

" Eli!" she hissed. Ah, I loved it when she said my name, even if it were in anger. She went into class her face beet red.

I laughed and winked at the teacher who's mouth hung wide open. This was gonna be a fun daily routine.

Fitz's P.O.V.

I stomped down the hall, pushing people out of the way as I went. So that was Eli's girl. Huh. Not bad for a freak. I grinned to myself. But I can't let him have her. Of course she seemed pretty into him right now, but wait until I got to her.

I saw Bianca down the hall with that kid who's comic book I ripped a page out of last week. I trudged over to them and pushed him out of the way. " What's up, B."

She frowned at me. " Damn, Fitz, you don't have to torture Adam. Give him a chance." She mock punched his shoulder and smiled. " He's i'ight."

I looked him over and shrugged. " Whatever, hey, meet me at the Dot later. Me and Owen getting some smoothies."

She nodded and began to talk to Adam again.

I walked off toward my locker and smiled to myself again. Maybe I'd see Eli and his girl there too. Huh. I could have fun with this.

Author's Note: Yes, I am bringing Fitz into the story. It's not an Eclare fic without Fitzy boy to cook up some drama now is it? XD Hope you all enjoyed! Holy crow! 52 reviews! Thanks so much!
