I hope you enjoy this chapter! I wanted give a special thank you to all of you who reviewed! It made my day, I couldn't stop smiling. P.s I don't own Degrassi or the charecters in this story. All I own is this story and the words on the page.
*Clare's POV*
Beep. Beep. Beep!
I jumped once I heard the third beep of my alarm clock. I rolled out of bed, slowly, and made my way to my closet. I picked out my clothes and glanced at the clock. I still had an hour and a half until I met Eli for coffee. I can't wait to see his gorgeous, face. Or his eyes; once I see them my knees go weak. I mentally slapped myself for these thoughts. I quickly took a shower and devoured breakfast. I grabbed my purse and made my way out of the door. I made to The Dot with 15 minutes to spare. I got my caramel latté and sat down in a booth. Sooner than later the door of The Dot opened and I saw Eli. I waved for him to come over and he smirked. I couldn't stop the blush that quickly spread across my cheeks. This is going to be a long coffee date.
*Eli's POV*
I got up later than I hoped and hurried. I didn't want to wait any longer, I had to see her. All last, I couldn't get her out of my thoughts. She would find a way into my train of thought. I hurried to Morty, my hearse. I practically floored it to The Dot and got their 10 minutes before we had to meet. I locked the door of Morty and noticed auburn curls in the window of The Dot. I smirked to myself and made my way inside. I could feel my palms get a little sweaty as she noticed me and smiled. She waved my over and I gave her my signature smirk. Then I noticed she blushed; I can't believe we barely know each other and I already have that affect on her. I got my coffee and sat down across from her. A silence fell over us, I decided to break it. "So Clare, did Fiona have any enemies or anyone the police think killed her?" She slowly looked up and I could see the hint of sadness in her eyes. This must be a very touchy subject still. Before I could tell what I was doing, I grabbed her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. She smiled slightly. "Well, Fiona didn't really have enemies… Oh except Katie Matlin. She hated Fiona since Adam loved Fiona, and not Katie. Katie was devastated to know Adam didn't like her and she swore to get revenge on Fiona. But, that was in high school. So, I don't know if that information really helps this case". Clare stated. "That could help us a lot Clare. Did Adam or Fiona keep in contact with Katie?" She hesitated, thinking quietly. "I know Fiona didn't, she would have told me. But, I don't know about Adam. I could call him. One second" She pulled out her phone and started talking. She hung after the couple minute conversation. "He said he kept in contact with here through his freshman year of college, but not after that. He hasn't talked to her since". "Do the police have any suspects?" I questioned. Katie seemed very suspicious. "They have one…" "If you don't mind me asking, who?" I questioned, I was very curious. She gulped. "Jake Martin. And last I heard, he was dating Katie." We talked a little longer about this and decided to meet up at the detective agency tomorrow to come up with a plan to get more evidence. We both got out at the same time and bumped into each other. Our noses brushed together and I swore I heard her stop breathing. We spent a couple seconds staring at each other, but, then I cleared my throat to try and stop the awkwardness. We pulled away and I saw her try to hide her blush. I tilted her chin and gave her a smirk. She smiled as she blushed more. She was as red as a tomato now; I couldn't help but crack a smile at her. I can't believe she's got me smiling now. She sure is special.
*Clare's POV*
I can't believe we almost kissed! Our noses were touching and we couldn't stop staring at each other. After he touched my chin, I about lost my balance, we'd never been so close. I decided to pull back a little and I noticed he was smiling at me. I can't believe he's not smirking. I cleared my throat. "So, I'll see you tomorrow?" I questioned hoping he would answer me; I needed to hear his low, husky voice before I left. "Yes you will." He answered quickly. I began to walk away when he grabbed my arm and whispered in my ear. "I can't wait till I see your beautiful face again". His hot breath on my neck and his voice sent chills down my spine and I swore if I blushed anymore, my face would explode. I turned and smiled and looked into his breathtaking eyes once more. I knew if I didn't leave now, I never would. So I said a quick goodbye and walked to car. Once inside I put my head on the steering wheel. His words clouding up my mind, his face was the only thing I saw in my vision. I can't wait until tomorrow, I thought, as I drove away from The Dot.
*Eli's POV*
Wow was the only word in my mind as I watched her walk away. I can't believe I just said that, but secretly I was glad I did. Once I saw her drive away I decided to leave and head home. I got into Morty and thought about her. I can't wait until were alone in my office tomorrow. I smirked at the thought and drove away.
