Finding A New You

Chapter Four

"Hey boyfriend" Claire happily cheered as she walked to Elli the next morning. "Hey girlfriend ready to go to class?" he asked closing his locker.

She nodded grinning as she took his hand as they walked down the hallway.

"So I was thinking maybe at lunch I should introduce to my dad." She said.

He looked over to her giving her a look. "I already know your dad though"

"Yeah but he doesn't know you as my boyfriend. Pretty please?" she asked giving her best puppy dog face.

"Really a puppy dog face? Ugh fine only because your puppy dog face is funny and kind of cute." He said laughing.

She hit him playfully. "Gees I said cute!" he laughed. "I'm beautiful not kind of cute" she said sticking her tongue out.

He squeezed her hand gently. "Of course you are." Claire blushed as they arrived to Claire's first class. "Well here we are" Elli said. "See you at lunch?" she asked. He nodded. "See you later then" she said giving him a hug. She walked into her class glancing back seeing Elli. She smiled gesturing for him to go and not be late to class.

He smiled as he walked away. He felt a little disappointed he had to wait until lunch to see her. When she made the cheerleading team her schedule changed a bit. He was happy they still had English together even if it was the only class they had together.

She was all her could think about when he went to class. For some reason he thought about what she said when they first met. "But I'm only here for the semester…" The semester ended in 2 months. Did that mean she was still planning on leaving? When they first met Claire seemed mad but now she was happy all the time. So was she going to leave him?

Elli shook the thought out of his head. All that he knew was he better cherish whatever time he had with her.

At lunch Claire and Elli walked together to her dad's office. She softly knocked on the door. "Who is it?" he called out. "It's me dad." She responded. "Come in!" he said. Mr. Edwards's expression softened when he saw his daughter walk in but it quickly frowned when he saw Elli behind her. "What brings you two down to my office?" he said glaring at Elli.

"Dad, I think you already know him but this is Elli my boyfriend" she said smiling.

He nodded his head "I see and when did you Mr. Williams ask my daughter for a relationship?"

"Uh just yesterday sir after the uh football game" he said nervously. Normally the father of the girl he was dating didn't scare him but this was his principal.

Mr. Edwards nodded turning to his daughter. "Does your mother know?" he asked. "No I haven't had a chance to tell her yet. I was going to tell her this weekend" she said. "What's this weekend?" he asked. "Don't you remember? I'm staying with mom. She hasn't seen me in 2 and half weeks. I told you a couple days ago at dinner"

"Oh yes." He said. He turned his attention back to Elli. "Look I'm saying this as Claire's father break her heart and I will find you. I have your address and number in the school file" he said.

Elli gulped nodding. "Yes sir. I don't plan on hurting her."

Claire smiled. Finally she was in a relationship where she felt safe in. "Well I let you get back to work Dad!" she said taking Elli's hand rushing out of his office.

"See it wasn't that bad" she said. He scoffed "It wasn't that bad? Your dad just scared the crap out of me!" he said.

She giggled. "Hey compared to my ex-boyfriend you got off easy."

"That was easy? I don't want to see hard" he said.

"Trust me you don't" she said.

"So I'm guessing I won't be seeing this weekend?" he frowned

"Nope my mom is picking me up after school tomorrow but she's dropping me off Sunday evening so if you want you can come to my dad's house at like 7" she said.

"Ok but I'll probably be late since I'm helping out my aunt at her house on Sunday afternoon."

"As long as you show up I'll be happy" she said. The bell rang to go to class. "Off to English my lady" he said putting his arm out. "Of course sir" she giggled as she wrapped her arm around his.
