Most of these will be short. Just do you know.

"I let you down, Clare."
Eli and Clare were sitting inside of Morty. They were parked on the side of the road, in silence.
"I only did it because I have no self-esteem. No self-respect. I don't care about myself. I only cared about doing what I thought was right."
"You could have died," Clare said through choked sobs.
"I'm stupid."
"Yes, you are."
Eli sighed and there was a silence. It wasn't exactly awkward, but it was the opposite of comfortable.
"Eli," Clare started, "I'll forgive you if you promise to never do anything to anger bullies again-"
"But I will!" Eli yelled. Clare was surprised at Eli's outburst. "It's my nature, Clare. I don't like bullies. I have to tease them. I have to get myself hurt. It's my nature, and I can't stop."
Clare thought about this. Eli didn't want to change for her. Her heart became hollow.
"I don't deserve you," Eli said. Clare started to tear. She had become so used to this boy. They had gone through so much together, and he was practically saying that he didn't care enough about her to change.
"That's why I'm leaving tomorrow," Eli said. Clare was shocked and confused at his words.
"What?" She said.
"I can't stand being at this school without you in my arms...and I can't let Fitz be a bully. I'm going back to my old school tomorrow."
Clare cried harder. "Eli, no-"
"I'm sorry," Eli said, and with that, they were off.
This wasn't the whole story. There was still the other part about he couldn't love again...after the incident.
I thought this was okay-written, but I disliked the idea. It wasn't an Eclare happily ever after, and I'm mad at myself for that. What did you think?
Sorry about this being so short. It was like, 280 words! I'm annoyed.
