Clare's POV

I woke up at 6am the next morning and got ready for school. I didn't see my parents so I figured they had gone to work. I made toast for breakfast since it was fast, I ate it and remembered I left my book bag in Eli's car so I texted him and he said he'll pick me up for school at 7:45.

I left the house at 7:44 and Eli was right out front waiting in Morty.

"All ready for school?"

"Well minus my book bag."

"It's right here" Eli said picking it up

I walked around to the passenger side of the car; Eli leaned in and kissed me.

"So how did last night go when I dropped you off?" Eli asked as he pulled away

"Well my dad was waiting up for me, apparently I walked in the door at exactly 10 he was surprised, and basically told me to go to bed so I did."

"Wow so did you figure out what I owe you yet?"

"No I'm still thinking."

"Ok well we're here" Eli said as he pulled into the parking lot.

Eli walked me to my locker and then we went to our classes together. We walked to lunch together and English after that.

"Class work on page 54 in your lit books with your partners." Ms. Dawes said when there was a knock on the door.

"So partner what should we do later tonight?" Eli asked

"What do you mean?" I inquired

"Want to go on another date?"

"Well" I said looking down "Let's -"

"Eli, please go to the door." Ms. Dawes said cutting me off

"Hold that thought I'll be right back." Eli smirked as he got up.

I sat and watched Eli walk out and talked to Simpson, he had looked upset and really angry when he came back in the classroom.

"I love you Clare" Eli told me as he kissed me.

"I love you too Eli…" I whispered against his lips I watched him stand up and wave to Adam. He said something to Ms. Dawes and she left the room with him. I was worried about what was going on I never seen Eli this upset before.Eli's POV

I was just about to get an answer from Clare as to whether we're going on another date and Simpson pulled me out of the classroom. I was a little pissed, but I shrugged it off knowing I could just ask her again.

"Eli, I just got a call from your parents, your dad got recruited again."

I was beyond pissed. My parents knew about Clare and how much I loved her.

"I love you Clare" I told her I was upset because I didn't know if I was going to see her again. Then I decided to kiss her once last time. Then grabbed my bag

"I love you too Eli…" She seemed confused I waved good bye to Adam and he waved back, but before I left I had to talk to Ms. Dawes.

"Ms. Dawes can I talk to you outside?" I asked

"Sure" She said

She followed me out into the hallway.

"What's up"

"Mr. Simpson told you the news about my dad right?"

"Well, of course."

"Please don't give Clare another English partner I'll be back on Monday I'll make sure of it."

"Ok, but if you aren't here Monday I'll have no choice"

"Deal" Ms. Dawes then rubbed my shoulder and gave me a smile. I then walked out of the building.

I walked out of the building and then to my car. I got into Morty an sped home as fast I possibly could. I skidded to a stop all my anger had built up. They knew I loved Clare my mom's a lawyer she could stay here.

"Mom! Dad!" I yelled as loud as I could when I got inside.

"Good you're home we leave for Germany, we have to be at the airport in three hours."

"Mom what about Clare you can't do this to me. I lost Julia and now that I've moved on and I'm happy you're making us move what the fuck?" I yelled

"Eli we get you're upset, but you can always keep in touch with her"

"Upset mom, really? Upset doesn't even begin to cover it. I'm not leaving" I yelled then sat on the couch like a 4 year-old that just got his favorite toy taken away only I wasn't crying.

"Of course you are dear."

"No I'm not I don't have to"

"You're 17 you can't just stay here by yourself"

"Yes I can. I'll get emancipated if I have to. I mean we already own the house."

"If you want to stay that bad we'll have to come to an agreement and I'll type up a contract it'll be faster and easier."

"Deal, what are the rules?"

"Well, one until you're 18 the house will be under our names your dad's and mine. Two, no parties, but you can have one or two friends over. I'll give you an allowance for food, clothing, and your needs which will be about $5,000 a month, then you'll get $2,000 for whatever you want and if your hearse breaks down you'll need to call us. Three I'll call to check in once a week and I'll also ask for pictures of the house to show you're keeping it clean. Of course you'll have to get good grades nothing below a C and no burning the place down. Do we have a deal?"

"Do I get a maid since I'll be at school most of the time?"

"More reason for the house to stay clean."

Then movers came to take out some of the furniture she left the main things here for me, she only took their bed, dresser, china cabinet, and the furniture from their office. Everything was moved in about 15 minutes.

"So that's a no?"

"We'll see, so deal or no deal?"

"Deal"

"I'll type up the contract you'll have to sign it and send it to your principal. You'll have to sign it too."

"That's fine as long as I get to stay."

My mom then typed up the contract, then I read it over before I signed it, my mom signed it after I did, then she stamped it to show it was legal, she scanned it into the computer, and sent it to the teachers. She printed out two copies one for me and one for her.

"Here don't lose this you'll need it" my mom said as she handed me the document

"I won't."

"Come on honey we need to go" She said as she grabbed her suitcase heading to the door.

I put the paper down and helped them load their car. The moving truck was gone by the time we got out of the house. We all loaded up the car.

"Honey don't tell anyone you live here alone unless you have to. Tell them we're on vacation or something." She said getting into the passenger side of the car.

"I will mom"

"Be safe and don't get in trouble."

"I won't"

"Well your father's in the car so give me a hug goodbye"

I then hugged my mom goodbye, then walked to the sidewalk in front of the house, and I waved good bye as they drove off. Clare's POV

I walked to Eli's to see him waving goodbye to his parents as they drove off somewhere.

"Hey what happened?" I asked

"Oh nothing my parents are going on vacation and needed me home. Nothing big they needed to set down rules. So what about later do we have a date?" Eli asked me.

"Well what would we do?"

"We could hang out here after all my parents are on vacation"

"Ok, by the way I decided on what we're going to do already let me go home I'll be right back"

"Need a ride I'll drive you."

"Ok" I replied

I ran inside to grab a few things.

"Clare what are you doing?"

"Noting mom I just forgot my cell phone in my room" I lied

"Oh ok."

I ran into my room and grabbed my Twilight DVD and my Vampire Diaries Season One box set along with some from Season Two that I've recorded onto a DVD I cut out the commercials, then quickly shoved them in my purse and ran down stairs.

"Clare back by 11!" my mom yelled.

"I will I yelled as I ran out the door"

I then hopped into Eli's hearse.

"So what time do you have to be back?"

"11"

"So it's 4:30 now and we have 7 and a half hours together alone, so I'll cook us dinner and then we'll…"

"Watch movies" I said as I went in my purse and held up my Twilight DVD

"Oh no not Twilight please, Clare that's torture"

"Eli you owe me remember" I said with my puppy dog eyes

"Fine"

"I win"

"Only by default"

"But still"

We then got to Eli's house and went inside. I noticed he picked up a piece of paper and put it in a folder and then putting it in some drawer in the kitchen.

"So what do you want for dinner?"

"I don't know are we ordering out?"

"No I'm going to cook"

"You're cooking?"

"No need to be so sarcastic I've cooked before. So what do you want?"

"Whatever you want to make and did you burn the house down?" I joked

"Yes it went up in flames so fast everyone was in the hospital for months I guess that's why my mom refused to let me cook" Eli said "You can't put cooking oil in the oven can you?….You know what we'll find out soon" Eli then put something in the oven

"What?" I ran over to him to stop him.

"It was a joke you looked so scared, I know cooking oil is flammable." Eli said as he put his arms around me.

"Not funny Eli, for some reason I really thought you'd put cooking oil in the oven"

"Nope just chicken nuggets." Eli chuckled. "They'll be done in ten minutes."

"Ok so we should get plates and ketchup"

"Here already done" Eli handed me two plates

I set them down on the table then Eli put two Sprites down and some napkins.

"7 minutes until the food is done"

"What should we do."

"Well we could do this" Eli kissed me I kissed him back.

I felt Eli's tongue rub against my lower lips and then find its way in my mouth. I then put my tongue in his mouth to return gesture. I felt Eli's hands go to my waist and I put my hands on his shoulders. We then laid on the couch Eli was on top of me with his hands by each side of my head we continued to make out. Then the timer went off.

"Eli…" I said out of breath he was still kissing me "The food's going to burn."

"Ok. I'm getting it"

Eli then got off me and I got up and put Twilight in the DVD player.

"The nuggets are done and not burnt."

Eli put the nuggets in a bowl and carried it to the table in the living room so we can watch Twilight. We then put some on our plates and I loaded up on some ketchup.

"The nuggets taste good Eli"

"Thank you"

Then the movie came on. We were finished eating every last nugget when it ended.

"Ok that sucked and it has a flaw. That's seriously on my "Worst movie ever made list" Eli chuckled

"Ok what was the flaw"

"Well, Vampires don't sparkle in the sun and it didn't look like diamonds they were covered in glitter. What man wears glitter?"

"I'm pretty sure Ms. Jay Alexander does, he's from Americas Next Top Model"

"Ok a guy that is called 'Ms. Jay' he's gay and I didn't know you watched that"

"Ali gets bored and puts it on to make fun of the anorexic models and so what he's still a man that wears glitter."

"Ok name one straight guy that wears glitter without getting paid"

"I can't"

"Exactly, so what's next"

"Vampire Diaries I bought Season One and parts of Season Two"

"Do the Vampires sparkle?"

"No they don't actually. I get scared during this, but it's really good."

"Ok I'll put in disc one."

Eli sat next to me on the couch after he put in season one. I jumped a few times while watching it.

"Ok that was good. I like the fact that the vampires burned in the sun and that they involved into wearing rings to keep them from burning, also that their faces became so distorted when their Vampire side came out. I liked the fact that Bonnie is a witch, Elena is normal, but looks like Katherine, and Caroline's mom is a vampire hunter who is friends with Damon, but doesn't know he's a vampire."

"I'm glad you liked it so much."

"Well it did have twists and turns in it which was a plus side. It's 8 now and there's somewhere I would like to take you."

"Ok. Where to?"

"It's a surprise, but we won't have much time"

"Ok"

We then got into Morty and Eli drove for about 20 minutes and stopped in front of a carnival. I was so surprised, as we got out of Morty I heard the music from the rides, smelt the aroma of the carnival food, and seen the bright lights it was all so surreal.

I felt Eli tug at my hand.

"Let's go" He said as we started running like little kids.

We ran right up to the ticket booth.

"Two bracelets please" he told the worker

'That's $20 and I need both of your wrists"

Eli slid the girl $20 through the hole in the window and then put his wrist through the hole so she can put a bracelet on him. I did the same.

"Ok what first" Eli said after I got my bracelet on

"I don't know your pick"

"Funhouse"

"Seriously Eli. It's night it'll be so scary inside there"

"That's the point plus I'll never let you go." He said as he was dragging me to the funhouse.

"Fine" I said as we got in line.

We then went running inside Eli still holding my hand. Then I heard a thud and Eli stopped.

"What happened"

"Feel around next to you we're in a maze of plastic windows I ran into one" he chuckled

"Are you ok?" I giggled.

"I'm fine, but we still have to find our way out."

I then started to listen to the music.

This used to be our funhouse, but now it's full of evil clowns it's time to start the count down I'm gonna burn it down down down….

"How ironic they're playing the song Funhouse by Pink." I said "Hey here's a way" I pulled Eli

He looked at me like he was trying to figure out how I knew it was Pink.

"If an evil clown jumps out I'm going to scream and hide behind you."

Eli looked at me confused

"The chorus say this used to be our funhouse but now its full of evil clowns I just hope they didn't fill this one with evil clowns"

"Ok if it's full of evil clowns and one crosses us I'm punching it." Eli said

I giggled.

"No seriously if I see a clown I'm punching it."

"Wow is Mr. Goldsworthy afraid of Clowns?" I said as we made it into a hall of mirrors.

"Well I'm not going to scream and hide when I see one Ms. Edwards and I hate clowns I seen a quote about them somewhere"

"What is it."

"Everything happens for a reason…except for clowns. I mean, seriously what the hell"

I laughed

"You must really hate clowns a lot. I'm just afraid of them amongst other things."

"I hate clowns with a passion."

"Well now it's just a moving sidewalk I don't think anything's going to jump out at us and I hope nothing does"

Eli never let my hand go the whole time we were in the funhouse and luckily no evil clowns. We were in there for a whole 30 minutes. We now had an hour left.

"Where to Blue Eyes?"

"There" I said pointing to a rollercoaster that went upside down

"You sure?"

"Yes" I pulled Eli's hand running to the coaster.

You can hear the people on it scream as we waited. The coaster had three loops and two corkscrews. I watched as it ran around the tracks.

"Are you ready Eli"

"Yea I just didn't know you were into coasters, especially ones that go upside down"

"Why is that a problem?"

"Nope"

We then boarded the coaster, we had to bucked a harness to keep us in place. Eli looked over at me.

"You seem really excited"

"Well it's been a while since I was able to get out like this and actually have fun" I yelled

"I'm glad you're having so much fun" Eli yelled back

Then the ride started. I laughed just about the whole time on the roller coaster as Eli stayed quiet. When the coaster came to a stop Eli and I got off holding hands.

"I can't believe you laughed the whole time. I mean you hate scary movies, you're afraid of the funhouse, clowns, and there's other things that I don't know, but you laugh on a roller coaster that goes upside down and you continue to laugh while we were upside down." Eli joked

"What shall we go on now your choice Eli and I couldn't help if I thought the roller coaster made me laugh. I just couldn't help it."

"How about we go on the go carts"

"Sounds fun"

After we went on the go carts, we went on the bumper cars.

"It's 10:30 we have one last ride to go on and it's your choice"

"Well how about we just relax in the back of Morty for a little I'm getting kinda tired"

"Ok"

We then walked to Morty and Eli drove off to some spot where we couldn't get yelled at for loitering or just staying parked which was the woods on an abandoned dirt path 15 minutes from my house I didn't notice it before and I don't think anyone else did.

"Eli, how did you find this path?" I asked as we got out of Morty

"I just seen something gleam from my head lights then I seen the path it doesn't look like it leads to anything so we should be ok here" Eli said opening up the back hatch.

I climbed in first and seen a pillow. Eli climbed in after me and we laid down and he wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my cheek.
