So I know it's been awhile and I'm super sorry. I've been so busy. I signed up for a few school events. And I have dance and babysitting on top of that, so it's been crazy. This is a little short, but at least it's something. Thanks to everyone who's been leaving comments and reading. You guys are the best. I promise to try and work on getting the story up faster. I'm almost done writing the second part of The Love of a Brother on my Who We Are story, so I'll post that soon. Hope you guys like this chapter. Tell me what you think, REVIEW! Love Anernerk (:
Adam's POV
"Hey what kind of pizza do you want," Fiona asks holding a menu and her phone.
"Whatever," I shrug.
"Hawaiian okay then," She asks.
"Yeah that's fine," I say.
She walks into the kitchen to order the pizza and returns a few minutes later. She sits down next to me and cuddles close as I wrap my arm around her.
I hit play on the remote. "Watchmen, really? Haven't you seen this like twenty times," Fi giggles.
"It's only my favorite movie," I shrug.
About 20 minutes into the movie the doorbell rings.
"I'll get it," She says jumping up from the couch. "Can you get the plates in the kitchen," She asks.
I stand and walk into the kitchen. I open the cabinet and take out two plates.
Out of the counter of my eye I see that Fiona has new emails on her laptop. I know I should snoop, but I'm curious.
I open the emails: "Lesbian Lover!" "Why are you dating that freak?" "You two are disgusting!"
"What are you doing," Fiona says running over to her laptop. She slams the screen closed. "I can't believe you're snooping in my computer."
"How long," I ask her.
"How long what," She asks, softening up a bit.
"How long have you been getting these emails Fiona," I ask quietly. She stays quiet.
"How long Fiona," I ask angrily now.
"Since we've been hanging out, but it's no big deal. Just a bunch of jerks that have nothing better to do," Fiona says.
I turn away to keep her from seeing the tears that are welling up in my eyes.
"Adam," She says softly placing a hand on my shoulder. I turn to face her.
"I don't think this is going to work out," I whisper.
"What….what are you saying," She asks looking pained. "Are you breaking up with me?"
"Yeah….I think I am," I say softly. I look up at her to see tears in her eyes.
"So you're just giving up on us because a few people are jerks," She asks bitterly.
"A few? Fiona no one approves of this relationship," I say raising my voice. "The whole school is against us."
"This relationship has nothing to do with the school. It's between you and me," Fiona says wiping tears.
"Maybe it's just too much to handle," I sigh. She shakes her head and scoffs.
"I think you should just go Adam," She says. I leave without argument.
Clare's POV
I look at Eli who smiles as he places the last box of clutter outside his door.
"You did it," I smile. He pulls me close to him by my waist.
"You helped," He says moving a strand of hair out of my eyes.
"Yeah, but I was just here for moral support," I say.
"Well I couldn't have done it without your moral support," He says.
"So it looks like Hotel Eli is open for business. And you have a whole lot of free night stays," He smirks.
"I might take you up on that offer," I smile. I move past him and sit on his bed. He joins me and kisses my head.
"Looks good," We hear from the doorway. I snap my head up to see Rachael. "Your room, I mean."
"Thanks," Eli says not really looking at her. She begins to walk down the hall.
"Rach," Eli calls. She reappears in the doorway.
"Uhm, ….uh never mind," He sighs.
"It's good to see you too Eli," She says smiling slightly before walking down the hall again.
I look at Eli from the corner of my eye to see a small smile on his face.
