Eli's POV
It's been a month since I've spoken to Clare. Yes, a month. She's been too busy with Tyler.
Sure Clare and I speak during English, but that's because we have too. Stupid Miss. Dawes made us partners, along with Adam, but I think he's in more torture than me. Clare and I mostly bicker about what to do for the assignments and such and Adam sits there, watching us, probably wishing he was anywhere but there.
Clare has tried to be civil with me, and to be honest, I have tried also. But every time we begin to act civil towards each other I end up thinking of her and Tyler and I get ticked off, which leads to me flipping out for no reason. Well, there is a reason, but Clare doesn't know what it is, and I'd like to keep it that way.
I was currently walking down the hallway with Adam by my side. We weren't really talking about anything in particular, just walking. We turned a corner and as we walked by another hallway, I heard giggling. But not just any giggling, it was familiar.
I pinned my eyebrows together and walked backwards before I stood in front of the other hallway. I looked down the hallway and noticed it was Clare and Tyler making googly eyes with each other. I rolled my eyes but my jaw clenched when I saw them begin to make out.
"Get a room!" I yelled before walking away, making sure Clare didn't see me, though she probably knew it was me from my voice.
"Dude, how long are you going to pretend that that doesn't bother you?" Adam asked.
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"Eli, you walk around pretending that Clare and Tyler being together don't bother you, when obviously it does."
"They're not official yet." I said through clenched teeth.
Adam sighed, "Hate to rain on your parade, but they became official a few days ago." He gave me a sincere look.
I stared at him, completely confused. By now we had stopped in the hallway. For the people walking by, we must've looked retarded. Here's two guys standing in the middle of the hallway; one has his hand on the others shoulder while the other one looks utterly confused. Great sight to see.
"What? Where was I when this happened?" I asked, trying to register this.
Adam shrugged, "I don't know, probably trying to find a way to murder Tyler without leaving any evidence."
"Ha, ha, very funny." I said in a mocking tone.
"Well, I gotta go, see you later dude." Adam said, patting me on the shoulder before leaving me here.
Later
It was around 9:00 and I was currently sitting in the lounge with the guys all sitting around playing COD. I was slouched on the couch with my arms crossed and my legs spread out. Normally I would be playing COD with the guys but I didn't feel up to it right now.
"Eli, man, are you going to play?" KC asked. Yes I was pissed off about what happened at the pool but if I chose Clare over the guys then they would know something was up, so I stayed friends with KC and Owen. Even though Owen is a complete sick bastard.
I sighed, "Nah, I think I'm just going to go to the library." They paused the game and everyone turned to face me, looking at me like I had ten heads. "I have a test tomorrow, I need to pass it." I covered. I did have a test, but I already knew the material, I just needed some peace and quiet.
"Alright, whatever dude." KC said and they all turned back to the screen.
I got up and made my way to the library. Things tonight were pretty quiet. I didn't know everything would be so quiet on a Thursday night.
Once I got to the library I walked inside and made my way to a table, just to relax. I sat in the chair and looked around, noticing it was empty, and that was how I liked it. The only person here was the librarian, but she was quite familiar with me, so she knew I was no trouble.
I crossed my arms on the table and rested my head against them. I was just beginning to relax when someone tapped me on the shoulder. I looked up to see the librarian. She was about in her late forty's or early fifty's. She was really sweet and had glasses that were a light pink.
"Elijah, I'm sorry to bother you but it's time to lock up." She said sweetly. I sighed and nodded.
"Sorry, I just needed to think about things." I mumbled.
She pursed her lips and looked around before she turned to face me again. "If I gave you the keys, would you lock up after you leave?" she asked.
I raised my eyebrows, "you would let me stay here?"
"Yes, but no longer than ten. It's already 9:30 and I was supposed to lock up already, but I trust you, so… here." She held the key's out.
I smiled softly at her before taking the keys' and replying, "Thank you, and I won't let you down."
She smiled and nodded before walking out the library doors. Soon it was only my breathing that was heard in the library.
I sighed and decided to go look for a book. I walked up and down the aisles, looking for a book, but none caught my attention. I sighed and dug in my pocket, pulling out my I-pod. I put the ear-buds in my ears and pressed play on my playlist. I began walking around and back over to the table I was previously at.
I slouched in the chair and closed my eyes and I let my head fall back. What is wrong with me? I use to always be out partying or hanging out with the guys, but now it's different. Now, I want to be alone most of the time.
I felt the table move a little and I lifted my head as I opened my eyes. I raised my eyebrows as I saw Clare sitting in the chair in front of me. I took the ear-buds out of my ears and placed my I-pod on the table. She didn't speak and neither did I; we just sat there in silence for a few minutes.
"Can I help you?" I asked, breaking the silence.
"I just want to talk." She answered.
"Oh, you want to talk? I didn't think you would have time since your tongue is always stuck down Tyler's throat." I snapped.
She raised her eyebrow at me, "So it was you."
"What are you talking about?" I asked, wondering if she figured out it was me that yelled at her and Tyler.
"Don't play dumb. Does 'get a room' ring any bells?" she asked.
"Well I'm sorry, but I didn't want to watch you guys make a porno in the hallway." I said, my tone cold.
She scoffed, "What is your problem?"
"My problem?"
"Yes, you're acting weird. You never talk to me anymore and I know Adam told you I told him everything." she then looked at me like she figured something out. "Wait… is that why you're acting like this? Are you mad at me for telling Adam? I thought that's what you wanted-
"Clare," I interrupted. "No, I'm not mad about that, I'm glad he knows. But there was no point in telling him since it's not happening anymore." I said, changing the subject.
"What are you talking about?" she asked.
"Whatever we had going on, it's not happening anymore. You've got Tyler and I've got…" I trailed off, not knowing what to say.
"Blonde skanks who would do anything to be known." Clare finished, her tone cold.
I didn't say anything; I just got up. "You have to leave, I have to lock up."
She got up and walked towards me before placing her hands on my chest. I looked down at her hands before I looked back up at her. She moved her hands to my shoulders and turned us around, backing me up until I hit the table. I stumbled a bit and grabbed the end of the table as Clare stared at me.
"Are you sure you want me to leave?" she asked seductively.
Before I could respond she crashed her lips to mine. And just like that, I was hooked. I couldn't pull away, no matter how much I wanted to. My lips began to move with hers as her hands traveled up and down my chest.
Everything began moving fast. We kissed furiously and she reached down, grabbing the hem of my shirt and pulling it up. Our kiss broke and I helped her take my shirt off before our lips attached again. She pushed me back so I was lying on the table, with her straddling me. My hands found her hips and I gripped them as she rocked her hips forward. I could feel myself growing hard, and I suddenly regret wearing skinny jeans.
I grabbed the hem of her shirt and practically ripped it off of her before flipping us over on the table so she was underneath me. I removed my lips from hers and placed them against the soft skin of her neck. I heard her sigh and I began placing wet open mouth kisses near her sensitive spot. I began to suck and nibble on her creamy flesh and she moaned.
"Eli," she moaned when I bit down on her neck. I miss that, so much.
I loved the way she moaned my name, and I wanted to hear it again, so I rolled my hips to hers making her gasp and moan. I let out a groan as she lifted her hips up as mine went down against hers.
She wrapped her arms around my back and dug her nails in my back, moaning my name each time my cock hit her center. Even though there was clothing between us it still felt amazing.
Clare ran her hands to the back of my head and threaded her fingers through my hair, which was always a turn on, and lifted my head before she crashed her lips over mine, hungrily kissing me. I kissed her back as our hips never lost movement.
I suddenly remembered that she was with Tyler now and this was no longer just for fun. She was cheating on him with me; normally I would be up for this but if it was the other way around, with her cheating on me with Tyler, I don't know what I would do.
I tore my lips from her and jumped off of her, panting. I quickly picked my shirt up from the floor and put it on.
"Eli?" Clare asked, sitting up with confusion written on her face.
I picked up her shirt and threw it at her.
"Come on, I have to lock up." I said.
Clare stared at me, blinking rapidly and opening and closing her mouth.
"Wait, what's going on? Why did you stop?" she asked. I thought I heard a hint of hurt in her voice but I shook it off.
"Clare, this shouldn't have happened. You're with Tyler now and I can't- no, I won't be the other guy." I answered, my chest aching with every word.
She put on her shirt and stood up from the table.
"We used to always do this? Why can't we do it again?" she asked, walking closer to me.
"Clare, did you not just hear what I said! You're Tyler's girlfriend! It was different when you were single, but now you're not." I sighed. "Now, I won't tell Tyler about this, since it was just spur of the moment, but if you really like this guy and he treats you right, then don't mess it up." I swear my heart hit the floor then. With every word I said, I felt my heart break.
She looked at me with a sad expression and looked to the ground before walking towards the doors slowly. I followed and Clare opened the door, stepping outside and standing there, her back facing me. I was just about to lock the doors but Clare spoke.
"You forgot your I-pod." She mumbled.
I sighed and ran back in the library, grabbed my I-pod from the table and ran back over to the door. Clare was still standing there, her back still facing me. I turned the rest of the lights off and locked the doors before turning and making my way down the hall.
"Eli, wait!" I heard Clare say.
I stopped, sighed and turned around to face her. She walked up to me, her eyes burning a hole in the ground. I watched as she took a deep breath, closed her eyes and let the breath out.
"I think... we got off one wrong start," she started as I raised my eyebrows. "Maybe we could... start over... you know, be ... friends." She asked, hope laced in her voice.
She looked up at me through her bangs and chewed on her bottom lip, waiting for an answer. I thought about it. We did start out pretty badly, and well, it was my fault. So, maybe we could start over.
I smirked and stuck my hand out, "Hi, I'm Eli."
She looked up at me and giggled, "I'm Clare." She shook my hand.
"Well Clare, it's nice to meet you." I smirked. I couldn't get over how ridiculous this was.
She giggled, "You too. So, I'll see you around?"
My smirk formed into a little smile. "Guess you will."
And with that I turned on my heels, stuck my hands in my pockets and walked down the hallway and to my room.
Once I made it to the hall I noticed a familiar figure, with an unfamiliar figure. It was Tyler with a girl I didn't recognize. She had long dark brown hair and she was skinny and short. I pinned my eyebrows together as I noticed just how close they were. I slowly made my way to my door, my gaze still locked on them. My eyes widened a little as the girl giggled and flipped her hair as Tyler looked at her and licked his lips. It looked like they were nodding in agreement on something before they looked around, noticing me.
I quickly turned and made it look like I was trying to unlock my door. Once I turned my head again I noticed they were gone. I looked around, only to see an empty hallway. I sighed and walked inside the room.
Clare's POV
"Where were you, missy?" Alli asked as I entered our room.
I ignored her at first, a blush creeping on my face as I walked over to my bed and took off my jacket, throwing it in the closet. I went to my dresser and began taking off my jewellery.
"Were you with Tyler?" she asked.
I pondered on what to say. "Uh… no, I went to the library."
"The library closed at 9:30, it's almost 11." Alli said.
Dammit! Come on Clare, think!
"Yes, it did. But I left my jacket there, so I had to go look for the librarian and ask her if I could go get my jacket, and by the time we were done, it was getting late, so I made my way up here." I explained so easily that I almost believed myself.
"Oh, okay. Well, I'm going to bed. Night."
"Night," I responded.
As I laid there in bed, under the covers, I couldn't help but think of Eli. I know, weird when I'm dating someone else, but I couldn't help it. He was just so… ugh. Sure Tyler was a nice guy, but… he's no Eli.
I smiled softly as I remembered what happened a little while ago between Eli and I. I was really glad we tried to start things over. We could put the past behind us and start over. But, I didn't want to forget our little late night meetings. I never wanted to forget the way his hands would burn into my skin when he touched me, or the way his lips fit perfectly with mine, or the way he made me feel. Even though he was a jerk at times, he was also the only one who could make me blush.
I closed my eyes as I remembered what actually happened in the library. I don't know what made me go onto him like that, and even though I am dating Tyler, I don't regret it. Yes, I care about Tyler and I feel bad for cheating on him, but I also wish Eli hadn't stopped us. It's like I'm torn between two guys, but the only thing is Eli has no idea how I actually feel about him.
So I've come to a conclusion… I like Eli, a lot more than I should.
Reviews?
So now you have both sides of the 'relationship' going on between Eli and Clare. If you don't get it, then I will explain. This is also a little peak into the next chapter… ish. Lol. : Eli and Clare like each other but they're both too scared to admit it to the other, in case the other doesn't feel the same way, and then they would have to stop with their meetings. But now that Tyler's involved, Eli and Clare have to stop… for now ;)
So, as promised, no goal for this chapter, but that doesn't mean you don't have to review, because you do! :P Do it for Eli; if you don't review, you will never find out if Eli will get Clare or if Clare will get her man. ;)
I have a few other tricks up my sleeve, so if you want to see them, then review!
Seriously! I have this big surprise planned and I really want to write it! … okay, so it's not really a big surprise but it's definitely worth reviewing for!
Oh look, I'm rambling aren't I? Well, I have one more thing to say…
REVIEW! :)
