Clare's POV
" Hey."
I was really nerves about seeing him for the first time in 2 weeks. Nothing had changed, he still had dark brown hair that brushed his eyes every now and then, he still had emerald eyes that pierced through me, and he still had that perfect smirk that was plastered on his lips.
" Hi." he said with a little bit of enthusiasm.
" We need to talk about Vegas Night." I hated bringing the subject up, but I knew I had to.
" Yea we do…" Was there something that I missed? Does he not remember that he was almost stabbed?
" Is something wrong? Are you mad about something?" I was really worried know.
" No nothing is wrong I just have been taking 2 weeks to think about the pain that I have put you through. I know I didn't call or return your texts and I should have. I love you Clare, more than anything, but I screwed up everything. I know you probably hate me…." He just kept rabbling.
I decided to cut him off, mid- sentence. " Eli, I could never hate you. I know that Fitz started everything, and that the only reason that you fought back was to 'prove yourself' but I can't stand there and watch you get hurt." I had tears on the edge of my eyes.
Eli's POV
God she was beautiful. Her hair was tossed to the side and her blue eyes shimmered with what looked like tears. I felt horrible about the way I hurt her, but I knew that words couldn't show it.
" Come on, we have somewhere to go." I said as I stood up from the table and pulled out the money for our drinks. She gave me a confused look.
" What?"
" We're going to go for a drive." I put out my hand for her and she took it. That was a good sign, she still cared.
I led her out to Morty and opened the passenger door for her to get in. She climbed in with a slight smile on her face. I walked over to the driver's side and started Morty.
