Clare's POV

Beep

I groaned at the annoying sound of my alarm clock. I checked the time 6:00 am. Time to get up.

I got up and got dressed. Once I finished I did my makeup.

By the time I was finished it was 7:00. So it was time to leave. I grabbed my bag and went out the door to walk to school.

When I was about halfway there a hearse drove by and the passenger window went down.

"Need a ride?" A familiar voice asked.

I looked over and saw it was Eli, "Uh, sure." I said getting in.

The ride to school was silent. Although it was a comfortable silence.

About 5 minutes later we arrived.

"Thanks Eli, I said as I was getting out of the car.

"Your welcome," he said.

We parted and I went to my locker. There was a girl who looked new trying to get her locker open.

"Do you need help?" I asked.

"Yes, please." She said handing me the combonation and it opened when I tried.

"Thanks, I'm Julia." She said offering her hand.

"I'm Clare." I said taking her hand and smiling politely.

"What grade are you in?" She asked.

"10th, what about you?" I said as I opened my locker.

"Me too. What is your next class?" She asked.

"Math, you?" I said taking out my math binder.

"Me too. Will you walk with me I don't know where anything is?" She pleaded.

"Sure," I said.

As we were walking to class I asked, "Do you want to sit at lunch with my friend Adam and I?" I asked.

"Sure, but do you mind if my boyfriend sits with us?" She asked.

"It's all right," I said before we went and took our seats.

Lunch Time

Adam and I were at lunch talking when I heard someone say "Hi Clare,"

I looked up and saw it was Julia. And Eli?

"Hey, Clare. This is my boyfriend Eli," She said smiling.

Like that I felt extremely Jealous.
