Chapter 2: One Step Closer
CLARES POV:
Tick, tock
Tick, tock. UGHHHHHH, why can't it just be 6:00 already, DINGGGG. It was my laptop. I open it to see a message from Alli.
Want to hang later-Alli
Can't, hanging out with Eli tonight, getting an escape from my parents- Clare
Oh you are now aren't you?-Alli. I roll my eyes at this message. I guess she can sense I'm staying at his house. I hear the door bell ring
YES ELI IS FINALLY HERE!I grab my bag and run down the stairs. Calmly I open the door.
"FITZ?" I screamed so loud. He slowly started walking into the house and I started to back away from him.
W-what are you doing here? How did you even find where I live" I started questioning him. He just kept walking towards me. At this time my back was against the wall. Fitz was right in front of me. WHERE IS ELI I kept thinking to me self. BUZZZZ. BUZZZZ. BUZZZZ. It was a text from Eli.
Sorry I'm late. Be there in 5.-ELI. Fitz just walked out of my house like none of this happened. I saw Morty pull up. I felt instantly safe.
ELIS POV
"Hey, is everything ok?" I questioned her. She was acting very out of it, very un like Clare.
"Fine, just a little tired, that's all" she responded. She was acting very strange ever since I picked her up. We are finally at my house.
"Do you want to talk about something?" I asked.
"fine, just wait until we get in your room." She barked. Sounding annoyed, I just let it go.
CLARES POV
I didn't really want to tell Eli about the whole Fitz thing. I know he is going to freak out and want to kill him. Eli interrupted my thoughts.
"Do you want to tell me why your acting so weird" he whispered, not wanting his mom to hear him.
"I feel bad, Alli wanted to hang out, but told her I was coming here." I lied. I lied straight to his face. He looked confused.
"That's why you have been acting so weird, I thought it would have been something bad" he said.
ELIS POV
That's what she was so worried about. I don't believe her.
"Are you sure that's all Clare?" All she did was nod. I hope she is telling me the truth. I decided to just let it go.
"Where are your parents?" she murmured.
"Somewhere downstairs." I said. I got up and walked over to my dresser. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes Eli, I'm totally ready for this!" she said
THE END OF CAPTER 2! I DON'T OWN DEGRASSI!
