LOVE IN AMERICA BY JTX (best song ever lol)

i know theyre in canada but i love this song lol

CLARE POV

Thank god! oops sorry, lord. Anyway i am so glad my shift at borders ends in 15 min. Our boss is a total bit...mean person. I swear she must be bipolar. Everything we do, me and the other workers, she yells at us whether it's out of place or perfect no matte what, she will yell. I swear one day I'm gonna find out who put that pole up her ass. UGH! i can't stop with the swearing! i really need to stop hanging around Eli...

Eli. Now there's a pleasent thought. We've been dating for about 3 1/2 years. We've been living together for about a year and we're both attending the university of toronto. We live in an apartment near the university graciously paid for by Eli's parents. I honestly love them as much i love my own parents. They've always been supportive of Eli and I, unlike my parents who tried to break us up since day one. I love Eli and he loves me and that's that.

I wonder what we're doing tonight, he said it was a surprise and that he'd text me after i got off of work. Speaking of work, I'm officially off! I grab my purse and walk out the door and start walking toward the main entrance. BEEP BEEP BEEP. That must be Eli's text. I pull my phone out of my purse and open it.

'meet me underneath the IHOP sign-Eli'

The IHOP sign? Well he did say it was a surprise. I start walking towards the town's IHOP which wasn't that far from the mall. I see it up ahead and there's Eli leaning against Morty. Gosh he is so hot sometimes, ok all the time to me. "Hey blue eyes, I see you got my text?" he smirked that to die for smirk. "Yeah apparently, why IHOP?" i asked still confused. "I don't know i was going for original." i laughed, "OK, so what are we doing tonight?" "That's for me to know and for you to find out." He winked at me and i blushed.

ELI POV

She had a point. Why IHOP? Oh yeah, that's where Morty broke down and i had to fix him really quick so i could actually drives us on our date tonight. Tonight is the night that i ask Clare to marry me. I've wanted to ask her ever since we told eachother we loved one another. She is so amazing, i have no i dea why she would even date a guy like me! But, i am so thankful she is. I'm positive I want to spend the rest of my life with her. We'd live in Toronto for always and have a nice 2 story home with 2 or 3 kids.

Whoa! I haven't even asked her to marry me and I'm already thinking about how many kids we're going to have. I need to just live through tonight first. After we got into morty, i asked her, "Are you ready to have the time of your life?" "I don't am i?" she retorted. I smirked. I am seriously rubbing off on her. "Oh i think you are." she giggled. Her laugh is like music to my ears.

I pulled into a local club and parked. "A club?" she asked. "Yup and you are gonna love it." We pay our way and walk in. I immediately recognize the song because it's Clare's favorite song. "Come on Eli, let's dance!" She dragged me to the dance floor and I'm surprised she didn't rip my arm out of it's socket. She swayed to the song, Known as Love in America by JTX.

I could faintly hear her singing along over the loud music. I decided to really get into the song and i dancing almost as fiercly as Clare. After a few songs, we got really thirsty so we went over to the bar and I ordered us two drinks. I handed a cup to Clare and she just stared at it. "Relax Clare it's just cherry with a little bit of vodka. I'll personally make sure you don't get drunk. she smiled and took a small sip.

After we had our drinks we danced a little more and looked around. When we decided we were done, I walked her outside ,we could still feel the bass kicking on the street, feeling the ring in my pocket. I walked right pass Morty, "Eli, where are you going?" she asked a little nervous. "Don't worry, just follow me." she sped up and grabbed onto my arm. I walked over to the small park nearby and also near the oh so famous Degrassi Highschool.

I walked over to a picnic table and sat down and she followed in suit. "Do you remember why this place is so special?" i asked her. "mmhmm it's where we filmed that Romeo and Juliet project and had our first kiss." She smiled and nuzzled her head in my neck. "It's also the place that i realized i was in love with you." She blushed. We both looked up and watched the stars. They were really pretty tonight.

I stood up in front of Clare and got down on one knee and pulled out the ring. Well here goes everything. "Clare, I love you. I Have for a long time and i plan on loving you for the rest of my life," i took a deep breath and continued," Clare, will you marry me." She smiled wide and nodded. "Of course i will Eli!" she punced on me and wrapped her arms around my neck.

We layed on the ground watching the stars again. Clare layed on my chest with my arm around her waist. "You know i had a dream about this last night." She smirked as she talked. "Well i guess you dreams do come true."
