CLARE'S POV

"Clare ! Babe, sorry I took so long."

Eli was getting out of Morty with his hair wet, which was so hot. He kissed me on the cheek and put his arm around my waist.

K.C.'s face was hilarious. "Your boyfriend ?"

"Oh it's nice to meet you too; I'm Eli, Clare's boyfriend."

What the hell ? I thought he needed some time. Boyfriend, I liked the sound of that. Thank god Eli was here to save me, I don't know what I'd do without him. Thank you Eli !

"Wow, your dating the freak that drives a hearse." K.C. was giving Eli a dirty look.

"K.C., Eli isn't a freak; you're a freak for leaving Jenna when she needed you the most."

"Clare you've changed, apparently this freak has had an influence on you."

Aww hell no, you did not just say that about my Eli, I am seriously going to kill K.C.

"You know what K.C. ! I am about to punch your eyes out of their sockets.

"Clare it's alright, let's just go. I don't want you to catch a cold in this rain."

How could he be so calm when he was being insulted ? Oh yeah, Eli didn't care what people think.

"Ok, let's go Eli." I said it through my teeth. I didn't even want to look at K.C.

Eli took off his black blazer and put it on top of my head. God, he looked so hot with his wet hair. He opened the door for me and got in the driver's side. I stared at Eli the whole time we were driving; he was so cute when he was concentrated.

"Ok, haven't you heard that staring is rude ?"

"It's just that…"

"I see, once again my hotness leaves you speechless."

I am speechless. WOW.

"C'mon Clare, what's wrong ? I totally saved you from that psycho K.C., tell me what's wrong."

I really didn't know what to say, so I looked into his green eyes for the longest time.

ELI'S POV

Clare actually stood up for me. This silence is bugging me.

I couldn't take this silence from her, so I parked Morty on the side of the road.

"Clare tell me what's wrong or I'll get out of Morty and run in front of a car."

She gave that 'you wouldn't dare' look.

"Ok you give me no choice Clare Edwards."

I got out of Morty and started walking to the road, when someone hugged me from behind. Clare ? Could it be her or some creep ? I turned around and sure enough it was Clare and I saw something running down her cheeks. Was she seriously crying ? I wiped the tears away from her face and hugged her. What brought on this drama ?

"Clare why are you crying ?"

"Who wouldn't cry ? ! I thought you were gonna really do it"

"Really Clare ? Like I'd leave you."

She was still staring at me and we were standing in the rain, crap she's going to get really sick now.

"C'mon lets go inside Morty and talk."

When were sitting inside Morty, I turned on the heater and then I looked at Clare.

"Please talk now."

She blushed and bit her lip.

"It's just that I'm so lucky to have you, and every time you look at me it DOES leave me speechless. Thank you for earlier, K.C. was being a jerk."

"Clare I should be thanking you for standing up for me."

Was she really saying this about me ? I was the lucky one to have her, she was the one that left me speechless. I looked at her and we just looked into each other's eyes for the longest time.
