Ch 4: Were you looking for me?
Ah. I feel so new as I stepped through the Degrassi doors, while Alli walked right beside me. Yesterday was so much fun that I felt like all my troubles went away, I was with my best friend in the world. We weren't going to be separated at all I was so relieved, that we didn't have to say goodbye we were going to see each other every day! I was such in a good mood yesterday until I came home and had to pack up all my things. Let me tell you I have a lot of things and had to help my mom pack up all Darcy's things that she left here. Ugh. So I love the new look Alli helped me pick all the stuff that I needed it seemed like everything that was picked was never ending black. I decided to add a little color, I also decided to do something to my hair. Well add something to it, I got extensions to make my hair longer down to mid-back like my hair used to be before I cut it but it was straighter with streaks of black.
"You look great Clare!" Alli told me as we stopped and she stared at me.
"Thanks Alli." I sighed
Today my hair was down, all the way to my mid-back with the streaks. I wore black denim skinny jeans that I was never used to due to all the dresses I wore, but I liked the feeling of not feeling the wind going up my legs the way the dresses do. Along with the jeans I wore a purple top with a black design on it that formed a blossoming rose, and black high top converse that I used to love so much but stopped wearing them. My make-up, oh my make- up I never really wore make-up but today I rocked it up with purple eye shadow, coal black eyeliner, mascara and a hint of lip gloss. I felt kind of off but I ignored it. We headed for the lockers and we got our books out but we just stood there and talked.
Alli asked "So what are you going to say."
"What am I going to say. 'Please Eli I need you to love me!' and run off into the sunset. Not!" I replied.
"Okay well thing of something else because here he comes." She told me. I sighed
"Speaking of the devil." I muttered.
"Hey Alli, have you seen Clare I need to talk to her." Eli asked as he brushed past me not noticing me.
"Ummm…" Alli murmured nervously, hesitantly pointing at me.
"Mmmm. Were you looking for me?" I said sarcastically turning my attention towards Eli. His eyes looked like they were about to pop out of his head.
"Clare?" He asked.
"Isn't the Easter bunny." I replied.
"Uh. I leave you two to talk." Alli said, I nodded.
"See you second period." I agreed.
"Clare why are you dressed like this." He asked.
"Wanted to start my last day here with a kick. Why you don't like it." I said smirking.
"I like the real you. Wait what do you mean by 'last day'." He asked with a mix of confusion and fear.
"Oh I'm moving to the states." I exclaimed
"When were you going to tell me?" He yelled.
"I found out yesterday. I would appreciate if you didn't yell at me!"
"Clare is there a way you could stay, I don't want you to leave you're like the only one who gets me besides Adam." Eli said.
"No my parents are separating." I sighed.
"Oh." That's all he said.
"Look I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you, but I'm still willing to try this dating boyfriend girlfriend thing if you are." He said sincerely. I didn't know what to say.
"Uh, I'm not sure I'll have to think about it." I said while my head was in a fog. Was I giving him a chance at hope for us. Was I willing again? His face broke out to a full blown smile.
"Great! When are you moving?" He asked happily.
"Tomorrow." His bubble popped and the smile dropped.
"Look I have to go to class. I'll see you later." I left him standing there, while he continued to stare at the empty space that I once stood. I walked down the hall while people stopped and stared at me. My hair flowing behind me, I heard occasional whistles.
Ah, I feel so new.
Soon on Starting Over:
"Oh my God! We are finally here!" I said
::
"Do you always serenade a girl whenever they are in the room." I giggled.
" Only ones with those eyes. What's you're name." He held out a hand.
"Clare." I said as I took his hand and shook it.
"Seth." He smiled. My heart stopped and I went to heaven.
::
"So is this going to be a long distant relationship?" Eli asked over the phone.
"Uh… I…." Kill me now.
