ELI POV

She quirked an eyebrow at me as I stood there motionless. After a moments of silence she planted her hands on her hips and stared at me through squinted eyes.

"You have been going to church every Sunday, right Eli?" she asked

I rubbed the back of my neck out of nervousness, "Well…"

Her mouth turned into a frown as her eyes grew wide. "Well, what?"

I sighed heavily as I leaned against the door. "No I haven't."

"Since when?"

I shrugged, "Since I left home."

"That's was two years ago…"

I shrugged again, "I must've forgotten."

"For two years you forgot to go to church?" she raised her brow as she stared at me incredulously. "How dumb can you be?"

I grabbed the hem of my shirt and faked pain. "Ouch, that hurt."

She rolled her eyes. "You better get dressed. We leave in ten minutes."

"Didn't you just hear me?" I grabbed her wrist and pulled her toward me. "I haven't been to church in two years."

"And?" she looked down at my hand that was griping her wrist. "That just means you have a lot of catching up to do."

I sighed, clearly defeated. "Give me ten minutes."

She nodded and slid down the wall to the ground. I closed the door as she took out a book. I rubbed my face with my hands as I walked to my dresser. What the hell just happened? Two minutes ago I was fucking a person I barely met and now I am going to church. How is that normal?

"Eli?" a person moaned in the direction of my bed.

I spun around and saw Jenna sitting up on my bed with her hair in all directions. I frowned as she smiled up at me. "I forgot you were here." I mumbled as I yanked the drawer open.

She pouted as I rummaged through the pile of clothes. "Where are you going?"

"That is none of your business." I replied as I threw a shirt over my head.

She pulled the sheet up to cover up her chest. "No need to be rude."

I stumbled as I tried to put my pants on. "I wasn't being rude. It just none of your concern." I walked over to the bathroom and opened the faucet. "You should leave Janie."

"It's Jenna." She called back. I rolled my eyes as I brushed my teeth. I could hear her moving around as she got ready to leave. I soon finished and walked out of the bathroom and found her wearing the same skinny jeans from yesterday but instead of her white blouse she was wearing my Dead Hand shirt. I frowned as I looked at her. "That's my shirt."

"No duh." She walked up and stood on her tip toes. Her lips pressed against mine for a second before she pulled back. "I need a reminder of our night." She pointed to the bed. "I left a little something for you to remember me to."

I saw a red thong on my bed and I couldn't resist the shudder that ran through my body. One word: Eww. "Thanks Jenna."

She bit her bottom lip and sucked on it trying to be seductive but I just wanted to barf. "Next time you need a good time, call me. With me there are no strings attached."

I want to die now. "Okay, well I got to go." I walked over to the door and grabbed the door knob. "Can you wait five minutes after I leave to go out?"

She nodded and I stepped out. Clare was biting her lower lip, with her eyes glued to the page. A smirk spread across my lips. "My oh my, still a nerd I see."

Her eyes snapped to my face. "Whatever, dork." I stretched out my hand to her and she grabbed it as I pulled her up.

"So," she looked up at me through her eyelashes, "Who were you talking to?"

My eyebrows scrunched together. "When?"

"Just now," she said as we walked out of my building and into the blinding sun.

"Oh," her eyes stared at me intently as she waited for my answer. "My roommate. It was Adam.

She frowned. "That didn't sound like Adam."

"You haven't seen him in a while. He went through puberty."

"You do realize that the voice sounded like a girl not like a man that went through puberty."

"Must you always question everything I say?"

"Well yea," she had a smirk on her lips. "Your answers are kind of stupid."

I rolled my eyes. "Let's get this over with."

~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"We must pray to the Lord." The pastor cried out.

"Amen." Voices said in unison.

"Amen!" I cried out as I stifled a yawn. People turned their heads and glared at me disapprovingly.

Clare was tense beside me. She had her hands on her lap with her back straight. She was in the perfect posture for church.

"Clare, loosen up."

"Hush." She hissed

I rolled my eyes as I slouched more and more in the seat. Before I knew it, I was practically on the floor. Clare's eyes followed to me and they widened as she realized I was being 'rude'.

"Eli," she tugged on my arm. "Get up."

"Why?" I whined.

"Because, you're being rude."

I rolled my eyes. "When am I not being rude?"

"Not in church."

I sighed and got up. "Happy?"

"Ecstatic."

"I love to make you happy." I mumbled. Her mouth fell open as a blush formed in her cheeks. I chuckled as she turned red.

3 years ago.

I stumbled up the porch steps with my hands pulling up heavy bags. I just came back from the market and my mom made a huge list. I frowned as I struggled to open the door. After a moment I quit and kicked the door.

"Clare, open up!" I shouted.

The door flew open and black eyes stared up at me. "Oh, hi Eli."

I nodded as I walked in the house. Of course Alli had to be here. I swear her and Clare are inseparable. I tossed the bags on the counter and began to place them away. Clare walked down the stairs and smirked when she saw me.

"You're back."

"No duh, Sherlock." I mumbled.

She rolled her eyes and punched my arm. "I have friends over today."

I titled my head and saw Alli watching us intently. "By friends you mean Alli?"

She frowned and crossed her arms. "I have other friends and for your information they are coming today."

I chuckled. This was fun for me. I just loved to get under her skin. I loved to see her frown and pout. When she crosses her arms, I want to burst into laughter. So far I am the only person that can get her this irritated. It kind of cute…

That's perfectly normal to say your little sister is cute right? I mean she is cute. I can't lie…

The doorbell rang. Alli ran down the hall to answer the door. Clare's eyes widened as a blush formed in her cheeks. I raised my eyebrow. "Why are you so happy?"

She looked at me with an emotion I have never seen before. It was guilt. "N...No reason." She stuttered. I frowned

"Then why are you nervous?"

She shook her head. "No I'm not."

"Right." I said unconvinced.

"Clare your friend is here." I frowned. The way she said friend was off. It was as if Alli was implying this person wasn't just Clare's friend.

A guy with shaggy hair and big lips walked through the door. He was wearing a beanie on his head with skater clothes. In his hand was a skateboard. "Hi Clare."

"Hi K.C" she whispered as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. And suddenly my stomach fell. I knew that look. A lot of girls give me that look. Oh my God, my little sister was flirting!

I stepped forward. "Hi. I'm Clare's big brother."

He nodded and his eyes left Clare to stare at me. "I know dude. Your name is Eli."

"Yeah everyone knows me but who the hell are you?" I asked.

Clare's eyes widened. "Eli, don't be rude." She hissed.

"I'm just asking. This guy is in my house. I deserve to know who he is. For all I know he could be a murderer. Or an alien."

"I highly doubt he's an alien."

"That's why I'm asking. I'm making sure."

She rolled her eyes and walked to K.C. My blood boiled as her soft hand grabbed his. "We're going to my room." She stated as she led his upstairs.

And that's the day I realized Clare was growing up.

Present:

"That was fun." I stated as we walked out of church.

She scowled up at me. "You were being disrespectful in house of God."

I laughed. "His house is in heaven. Not here in earth."

"Not funny Eli." She whined

"Yes it was funny."

'You were practically on the floor. In fact you were on your knees."

"I want to see you in your knees." I laughed as I grabbed her wrist and pulled her to my chest. She turned red as she shoved me away.

"Har har." She said sarcastically as we made our way to the parking lot.

"Oh Eli." A voice called out. I frowned as I turned my head and saw Jenna walking toward me.

She was wearing my Dead Hand t shirt with her hair in a messy ponytail. "Don't you just love my outfit?" she asked me. I felt my face heat up as she waited for my answer patiently. Clare crossed her arms and looked at me accusingly.

I finally nodded. "Yeah I had one just like it."

"Oh you lost it?" she faked concern as she grabbed my shoulder. "What a coincidence. I just lost a red thong."

Clare coughed as she covered her mouth. Her eyes bulged from her sockets.

"Oh I didn't you see you there Clare-bear." Jenna said bitterly. She glared at Clare with distaste and Clare rolled her eyes.

"You must've been too busy looking for your thong." Clare placed a fake smile on her lips as Jenna threw daggers with her eyes.

I rolled my eyes as I grabbed Clare's upper arm. "We have to go." I stated before walking away.

"Please tell me she wasn't one of your one night stands."

I chuckled. "Thankfully, no." I lied. "She was talking to me yesterday about Dead Hand. She seemed to like the band so I talked to her."

Clare scoffed. "Probably saw your shirt and lied to your face. Were you wearing your Dead Hand t shirt?"

"Umm…maybe."

She rolled her eyes. "You're so gullible."

"My oh my. Does Saint Clare not like someone?"

"Don't call me that?" she warned. "And yea, she is the definition of a bitch."

"Gasp. How could you just take me to church and then cuss two minutes afterwards?"

"Whatever." She mumbled. "Just promise me, you will never sleep with her."

I stopped walking. "What?"

"Promise me, you will never sleep with her." She repeated as she looked at me seriously. "Or you'll loose me forever."

I swallowed hard. "Okay."

We walked to the parking lot in silence. Suddenly Clare let out a huge gasp. "Eli!" she screamed as she ran. Her eyes beamed as she glowed. "It's Morty!"

I chuckled. Clare was the only girl who actually liked Morty. Every other girl pretended to or hated it. But Clare is different…she get me.

"Could never get rid of a family member now could I?"

She shook her head as her hands grazed Morty's hood. I would never let anyone touch Morty but I would never say no to Clare.

"Well you coming?" I asked as I hoped in the car. She let out a sequel as she climbed in and hopped excitedly in the seat.

"To dinner!" she shouted.

I nodded with a smirk on my lips. "To dinner."

Suddenly there was a knock on the window. I turned my head and my heart skipped a beat. My stomach fell and my heart crumbled. He had to show up now?

"It's K.C."

You liked it? Review and tell me. So tell me what you think about the story. I'm going through writers block. I swear everything I write I feel like its crap. I'm going through depression again. And I send my prayers and thought to the victims in Japan.
