Clare's POV
I just got back from my first date with Eli. I can't help, but smile as we stand on my front steps.
"I had a great time tonight," Eli says.
"Me too," I say biting my lip.
"I'll see you on Monday," He asks. I nod before leaning in. Eli puts his finger to my lips.
"I don't kiss on first dates Edwards," He smirks. I roll my eyes.
"Ok fine then," I say pretending to head into the house. Eli quickly spins me around and his lips find mine.
"I guess I can make an exception this once," He says when we pull away. I shake my head and kiss him again.
"See ya, Goldsworthy," I say opening the front door.
"You too, Edwards," he says heading back to Morty.
As I close the front door behind me, I hear glass shatter, followed by screaming. I walk into the kitchen to see my parents fighting. Mom looks at me.
"Oh Clare, sweetheart, we didn't know you were back," She says. Dad plasters on a fake smile. I shake my head.
"I thought you two were done fighting. I thought you were getting along," I say.
"We are," Mom lies.
"Really Mom, I'm not an idiot and I don't appreciate being treated like one. You two are fighting again. Don't lie to me," I say louder than necessary.
"Clare," Dad sighs. "Sit down. We need to talk." I cautiously sit at the kitchen table.
I know what's coming. I know exactly what they're going to say. I don't want to hear it, I want to run away, but I can't seem to move.
"Clare sweetheart," Mom says taking my hand. I bit my lip to keep the tears from falling.
"Clare, we're getting a divorce," Dad sighs heavily. Mom glares at him. I'm guessing that's not the way she wanted to tell me. Tears start to run freely now, there is no stopping them.
"No," I whisper under my breath.
"I know this is going to be hard sweetie," Mom begins. I don't let her finish. I stand and run out the front door.
The last thing I hear before the door slams close are my parents yelling my name.
