Ch.2: Clare going stag
Clare's POV
-oOo-
It was almost five o'clock when I arrived at the Bhandari residence. Sav let me in and I headed for All's room.
"Im so glad you're here I need all the help I can get!" Alli said as I entered the room. She was a sight; sitting In the middle of her bedroom floor surrounded by magazines her laptop cradled in her lap.
"Geez… you got enough resources?" I asked playfully as I attempted to find a spot to sit.
Alli let out a sigh of defeat "I can't find any costumes that say "yes that's right, we are the new Degrassi power couple"
"Well let me help you look, toss me that magazine over there" I said pointing at the one that wasn't open.
"What about a princess" I asked pointing at a pink princess dress.
"No to cliché" she said, turning back to her lap top "what if we went as Aladdin and Jasmine?" she asked
"Too skanky" I said shaking my head and we both let out a little laugh and continued our search.
"So are you going to the party?" Alli asked me
"I don't think so, I don't have a date and I really don't want to be a third wheel to you and Drew." I replied as I continued to flip through the magazine.
"Well you could always just go stag... or even better why you don't ask Eli. I mean it's obvious that he likes you and I know you like him… its perfect." She informed me
"I would have a better shot of getting Edward Cullen to go with me. Plus Eli has already clearly stated that he is not going to the party. He and Adam have tickets to this gore marathon playing at the cinema that night."
"That's it!" Alli exclaimed "Drew and I can go as Edward and Bella."
"Actually I think I may have just found you guys the perfect pair of costumes" I said holding up the magazine with a smile.

Study hall seemed like a great place to get lost in my thoughts and my thoughts always revolved around a certain gorgeous green eyed boy. Lately it seemed like Eli and I were still trying to figure out what we were. I knew we weren't a couple; he made that painfully clear the day after we filmed the Romeo and Juliet reenactment. When I confronted him about "us" and the amazing kiss we shared he decided to tell me about his ex and how he needed time. I completely understood that he wasn't over the death of his former girlfriend so I agreed to give him what he had asked for, but how much time did he need? We still flirted and bantered sarcastically with one another, and seeing it still made Adam sick but, if Eli didn't step up to the plate soon then I would just have to get over him and find someone new.
The bell rang and I made my way to our usual spot outside. Eli and Adam were already sitting there when I arrived.
"Well if it isn't the beautiful and smart Clare Edwards" Eli said as I sat down pulling the container of veggies from my bag.
"So Clare" Adam began "I was thinking if you wanted to join us for the gore fest on Halloween you can"
"Thanks, Adam" I said "but blood and guts aren't really my thing plus I have other plans for that night."
Eli looked at me intrigued "please… pray tell" Eli said fully interested in my answer.
"I'm going to Fiona's party" I said with a smile
"Alone?" Eli asked
"Why not?" I replied back sounding a tad annoyed at his question.
"No reason" he stated
"Do you have a costume?" Adam asked trying to lighten the mood.
"Not yet, but Alli and I are going to go get me one today" I said. Eli didn't say anything he just rolled his eyes.
As the warning bell rang we all got up and headed to English.
