An Eclare Story

November:

Eli - The next day I took Clare home. I had to park a few houses down and let her out there so her mom wouldn't suspect anything.

I invited her to spend the night the next weekend. There was something I had to show her. We spent the day hanging out with Adam and the night watching movies. It was her turn to pick so you could imagine what she wanted to watch. All 3 of the Twilight movies. Yay. But it didn't really matter. If it made her happy then I could deal with it for the night. We started to fall asleep on the couch during the 3rd, so I suggested we go to bed.

I had set my alarm clock to wake us up at 3 in the morning. She was going to love me for this. She was confused when we woke up, probably because she was half asleep. Once she was awake a little more awake, I grabbed her hand and led her up to the roof of the building.

"Where are we going," she asked.

"Just trust me."

I placed a blanket that I'd brought up down and held her close.

"Ok, are you ready?"

"For what?" A slight tone of confusion was in her voice.

"For that," I said, pointing up to the sky. We looked up as a comet zipped past us. She gasped in awe.

"It's beautiful," she said.

"Yes, you are."

She smiled and kissed me.

"Make a wish," I said. I made one too.

Let this last for as long as possible.

We watched the comet until it was out of sight.

"What'd you wish for," she asked, nuzzling her head in my shoulder.

"If I tell you it won't come true." I know it sounded lame, but I wasn't ready to end this, if I ever would be ready.

"Can you at least tell me how you found about this?"

"Read about it online. It only comes around once every 150 years. Thought it'd be perfect."

"It was."

I gave her a long kiss and we went back to bed.

Clare -

It was my birthday. I had told Eli that I wanted to do something special today. He was picking me up in half an hour. I'd just finished getting ready when my phone buzzed.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Hey there, birthday girl!" It was Eli.

"Hey. I just finished getting ready, so I'm ready when you are."

"Yeah, about that...I have some bad news. Morty's been acting up all morning so I can't pick you up for your birthday today. But, if you meet me at my house in a few minutes we can just take the bus somewhere."

Thank goodness that's all that was wrong. I was afraid it was going to be way worse. I didn't care how we got there. I just wanted to spend my whole day with Eli.

"No problem. I'll see ya then," I said excitedly.

"Oh, and if I don't answer the door, I'm probably in the shower, but I'll leave the door open so you can just come in."

"Alright, I'll see ya in a while."

I hung up, grabbed my purse, and walked over to Eli's.

I arrived at Eli's and saw Morty in the driveway. On the outside he seemed fine, but then again what did I know about cars, especially a hearse.

I knocked on the door. After a few minutes it didn't seem like he was going to answer it, so I did what he said and just walked inside. It was a little dark for some reason.

"SURPRISE!"

I turned around and there they were. Eli, Alli, Adam, my parents, and Eli's parents, all standing in the living room, smiling at me. Even Jenna was there. I had started becoming friends with her since KC dumped her because of her pregnancy. I knew I had an ear-to-ear smile on my face. The room was decorated with balloons and a banner that read "Happy Birthday Clare!" I ran over and hugged every last one of them. I grabbed Eli and gave him a kiss. I didn't even care that both our parents were there. By now they knew we liked each other enough to just smile and be happy for us.

We had an amazing birthday dinner that Eli cooked himself.

"He insisted on doing everything himself," his mom said. "I offered to help him all day, but he just said no."

I smiled at Eli and he just blushed and looked down at his plate. That was probably the first time I've ever seen him blush. He looked so cute.

After dinner we had cake. Eli even took the time go out and get my favorite, double-chocolate with whipped cream and strawberries. It had pink flowers in the corners and read "Happy Birthday Clare!"

Things couldn't have gone better. My parents were on their best behavior, not starting a fight the whole night. I knew it wasn't going to last but I still appreciated it. Eli had felt the same way about his parents. Alli, Jenna, Adam, Eli, and I watched all of my favorite movies in the living room, while the parents went to the backyard to talk amongst themselves. They didn't mind, since the weather was surprisingly nice outside, and they trusted we wouldn't do anything wrong with them only a minute away. Alli, Jenna, and Adam had given me the most thoughtful gifts. Alli gave me an adorable floral skirt, just my style. Jenna gave me a pair of ballet flats that went perfect with the skirt. I figured they probably went gift shopping together. Adam made me a mix CD of some of his favorite bands. Since I was hanging out with Eli so much, and Eli and Adam like the same music, I'd grown to start liking it too.

"I'll give you your gift later," Eli whispered in my ear.

"You didn't have to get me anything, Eli. I'm happy just to have you."

He smile and kissed my cheek.

After a few hours, Jenna's brother came and picked up her, Alli, and Adam. My parents left after Eli assured them he would take me home. Eli's parent went back to the backyard, leaving me and him alone. He grabbed my hand and led me to the from steps of his house.

We sat down and he put his arm around me.

"Time for your gift," he said, smiling at me.

He pulled out a black velvet box.

I took it and opened it. I gasped. Inside was a beautiful silver necklace with 5 charms on it.

The first charm was a pair of glasses. Right next to that was a car. No, wait, it was hearse. It was Morty. It reminded of how and when we first met.

On the left side, there was book with "Romeo & Juliet" engraved on it. The scene we had to perform when we shared our first kiss. Next to that was a movie reel. It reminded me of our first date. Our perfect first date.

In the middle was a silver heart. "E+C Forever" was engraved on it. That was my favorite.

I looked up at Eli and saw him smiling at me.

"Eli, its amazing. It's the best gift anyone's ever given me. I love it and I love you."

"I love you, too."

He took the necklace out of the box and placed it around my neck. Then he pulled me in for a long, loving, passionate kiss.

After an hour of some alone time together, Eli drove me home.

"Glad to see Morty's feeling better," I said, smirking at him.

"He does work in mystyrious ways," he said, smirking back.

We pulled up to my house, but I didn't want to leave.

"Thank you so much for everything, Eli. It was probably the best birthday I've ever had."

I leaned in and kissed him, but we never separated. I put my arms around his neck and he pulled me in closer. His tounge hit my lips, begging me to let him in. I did and it wasn't long before we were in the middle of a full-on makeout session in the front of his car.

I didn't think I could stop, but I had to come up for air eventually. We separated after a few minutes and I gave him one last quick kiss before stepping out of the car.

Eli -

It'd been two weeks since Clare's birthday party. Everyday, for those whole two weeks, I never saw her without the necklace I gave her. She wore it everyday and never took it off, even when she went to bed. She told me that herself. I was glad she loved it so much. It meant a piece of me was always with her.

Thanksgiving weekend was coming up. That meant a nice, long, four-day weekend.

Unfortunately, that weekend wouldn't include Clare. She was staying at her grandma's the whole weekend, who lived 3 hours away. She wouldn't be back until late Sunday night.

Fortunately, that meant I could catch up with Adam. It's not like we stopped talking to each other, but ever since Clare and I became a bit more serious, I hadn't spent that much time with him.

I picked him up around noon. Dead Hand was having a free concert at midnight in Davisville Village. There was no way we were missing that.

The ride took a while, but we didn't notice since we were blasting every Dead Hand song ever made on the way there.

I hadn't had this much fun with Adam in a long time.

We finally arrived to where the concert was being held. Lucky for us, there weren't as many people there as I thought there would be. We were only a few yards away from the stage and we had a perfect view of the band.

The concert finally started and Adam and I rocked out the whole night. I hate to admit it, but I actually forgot about Clare for a minute. But just a minute.

The band played all of my favorite songs, and when the lead singer threw his guitar pick into the crowd, I was the one who caught it. This was definately one of the best nights of my life.

The concert ended around 3 or 4 in the morning. I was way too tired to drive, but I had no choice.

Adam was asleep in the passenger sheet. Lucky.

I was starting to zone out, but I just kept shaking my head awake. The highway was pretty empty, maybe one or two cars trailing behind me.

After a half hour of driving, I noticed Morty starting to slow down.

"Morty! C'mon, don't do this to me man!"

We kept slowing down until we came to a complete stop. Great. I pulled out my cell phone and called roadside assistance. I told them where we were and they said they would be there soon. I decided I would wake Adam up. He should at least know what's going on, plus I wasn't waiting alone while he got to sleep.

"Where are we?" he asked, half asleep.

"Morty ran out of gas, but help is coming soon."

"Oh, good."

We sat there and waited, falling asleep faster and faster. I wondered what was taking so long. The headlights were on, so it's not like they wouldn't be able to see us. I could see something in my rear view mirror. Headlights. Finally, help was here. They were coming closer and closer. But it didn't look like it was slowing down. I honked the horn, hoping to get there attention.

I looked in the mirror, and started to make out the vehicle as it got closer. It wasn't roadside assisstance...it was huge truck. And it was heading straight for us without stopping.

I was too shocked at what was coming next to speak.

Adam was the same way.

We looked at each other and screamed at the top of our lungs.

Suddenly the truck hit us. We went shooting foward, then we started spinning around.

I was gripping onto the steering wheel, trying to get the car back on track. Adam was holding onto the sides of his seat, panic written all over his face. I saw my life flash before my eyes.

As we kept spinning, I saw we were heading towards a nearby light pole. Now I was the one panicking. We finally stopped spinning when the back of Morty crashed right into the pole.

And that's when I blacked out.
