WARNING: Kardashian reference, abusive boyfriends, stupid jerks are back && mere mention of Eli :D
Chapter Twenty-Three: Suspension (Clare's POV)
Suspension is boring. Final line. I've been cooped up in my room, being on the laptop writing stories hasn't fed my insanity and watching TV doesn't either. I forced myself to watch Keeping Up With The Kardashians to feed boredom, until I completely wanted to throw my TV out the window. I have a week to kill. Jenna has is easier, I'd rather take care of a newborn, at least I'll have something to do. I'm wasting my breath here. I felt something vibrating underneath me and saw that my phone was on vibrate. The message that came up was KC Guthrie is calling. I smiled sly and accepted the call. "Hello?" I said in a flirtatious voice. "Hey beautiful." KC said in a suave voice. I smiled. "So what's been up in the exciting world of Degrassi?" I asked, twirling a short curl on my stubby finger. KC chuckled. "Not much. Just the same old same old. It's been boring because I haven't seen my girlfriend in five days." KC moaned. I giggled. "Well.. I suppose that I could sneak out." I whispered so Mom or Dad couldn't hear from downstairs. "Yes!" KC hissed. I stifle another giggle. "Where do you want to meet up?" I whispered. "The Dot? My treat." KC offered. I smiled. "How could I refuse, KC. I'll see you there." I said. "Alright. Bye." The line was quickly hung up, I tip toed to the peak of the stairs, Mom was watching a soap opera and Dad was working on papers. I tip toed back to my room and locked the door silently. I turned the TV on higher than usual and slipped out the balcony door. I spotted the ladder against the balcony and smiled. "So dumb." I muttered. I climbed down the ladder silently, happy that the curtains weren't drawn back. I quickly jogged from the sight of the house. A new feeling arousing in me. I've never done anything this bad. Sure I've stolen Mr. Simpson's vibrator, but that was completely Alli's fault. And then setting off the stink bomb during exams, to stop the fight between Fitz, Adam and Eli. Eli. I stopped jogging and held my chest. My breathing ragged as I thought of his emeralds. I haven't seen them in months and I missed them dearly. If KC knew that I was thinking about Eli.. My ex boyfriend. He would blow a gasket. I made it to The Dot and opened the front door. Many students were all ready in there, I quickly noticed, Fiona and Adam sharing a mocha café, Adam saw me and touched Fiona's hand and nodded in my direction. Fiona gave me somewhat of a dirty look and Adam gave no look in particular. They returned to their small talk and drinking of café's. I quickly turned around to see KC sitting down at a table already. He beamed up at me with a smile. He looked good in a purple polo. Not as good as Eli in his red polo, Clare. My conscience told me. I ignored it and its continuous commands of me and sat down in KC's lap. "Someone's very loving today." KC observed. I giggled and bent forward, my arms around KC's neck and kissed him deeply. KC was taken back, but smiled and held onto me longer. "Damn KC. Let the girl breathe." A familiar voice said. I broke free of KC and looked down at my worst fear. Fitz was back. And he was only a couple inches away from me.
"Now before you lose it." Fitz began, I slipped off KC's lap, and crossed my arms across my chest. "No. Fitz. What the hell are you doing here?" I spat. He looked the same, the same jerk smug look. "Your still pissed about me almost stabbing loony boy?" Fitz chuckled. KC cracked a smile also. I looked at him and his smile fell. "Yes. I'm still mad. You could've hurt Eli.. So much." I said. Fitz and his friends howled in laughter that other students were staring at them. "What's so funny?" I asked, feeling like an idiot not knowing what they were laughing at. "Hurting Eli?" Fitz managed to say through laughs. "He's hurting himself in that loony bin. Right where he needs to be." Fitz added. I grimaced at him. "Your sick. Eli has a mental problem, it isn't his fault. He's hurting on the inside." I said through a choked gasp. I hated Fitz, I hated him making fun of Eli. It wasn't his fault. "Aww. Do you want a tissue?" Fitz said, as he faked cried. I sneered. "Nice friends, KC. I'm going back home. This so wasn't worth my time." I pushed the door on my way out of The Dot. I took the alley around the back for my way back towards home, when I heard footsteps following me. "Just go back to your new friends, KC." I sneered. KC sighed. "Dammit Clare. Let me explain." KC plead. I turned on one heel and stared up at him. "In there was pretty self explanatory." I scowled as I turned back around. Suddenly I felt KC push me against the alley wall.. Hard. "KC.." I whimpered. I've never be handled this way by a guy. KC never use to do this and Eli.. He'd treat me like a fragile cardboard box. Every move ever so careful. KC.. He was a gush of anger. "Listen.. Clare." KC sneered. "I'm doing this because I'm sick of being called out on leaving Jenna." KC admitted. "You should!" I shouted. KC pushed me against the wall again. I winced as my head slammed against the wall, my head jolting a bit. "I'm sick of it. I don't want to be apart of Jenna or Bethany's lives. I don't care about them. I care about only one thing." KC stated. I gulped. "Who is it?" I whimpered. "I care about my reputation, and if you thought it was you.. Than your sadly mistaken." KC said. "Then why are you dating me?" I questioned in a small voice. KC chuckled lowly. "Because.. That's all hush hush. Now your going to date me for as long as I want. Understand?" KC murmured lowly. When I didn't answer, KC tighten his grip on my healing forearms. "Did you here me?" KC sneered. I nodded. "Yes.. I won't break up with you." KC dropped his grip and backed away from me. "I'll call you tonight. We'll have to meet at the Ravine." KC said with a sly smile. I gulped and swallowed as he walked away and over to Fitz and his boys. I walked down the alley slowly, catching up on speed and I was full force running through alleys to get to my house. I climbed up the ladder and onto my balcony. I opened the doors and smiled to see that everything was left the way I made it. I closed the balcony doors and locked them, pulling the drapes closed. I sat down on my bed, and rubbed my sore forearms. Curious, I pulled the long white sleeve up to see a faint handprint, large enough to be KC's, a slightly smaller one that was Eli's. I pulled the sleeve down and felt the tears wash down my face. I buried my face in my hands and just cried. I cried because I was stupid enough to get involved with KC and now I'm sworn to him until he says otherwise. I'm crying because I lost my friends because of this, Alli must also hate me. I cried because of Eli. Abandoning him at his time of hour. I missed him dearly and his lopsided smile, his pure lips that were so amazing against mine. I cried myself to sleep in the thought of him.
Aha. Had to make a Kardashian reference. I watch the show and at times it's so fake, but entertaining, not to Clare though :D. Haha but the reason behind KC fake liking Clare and dating her will be reveal soon && MAYBE next chapter will be in Eli's POV. Although the next chapter will take place MANY MANY months after Clare's incident with KC. && Don't forget to…
