Not much to say. Here you go!

Clare sat inside the Dot. She stared outside at the raining sky. It was coming down hard so no one would come to the Dot for a coffee. Only Clare was there at a lonely table.

"What can I get ya?" a waiter asked. Clare sat and stared.

"Oh, nothing."

"Well, either buy something or get out."

"I'll leave in a bit."

"Alright."

Clare sighed and looked out the window again. A bell ring brought her back to real life. She saw a boy walk in. He had a black jacket, a black and red Dead Hand shirt, and skinny jeans on.

"I'll have a hot chocolate." he said to the waiter. Clare focused on the table she was sitting at and thought about her family.

Meanwhile the boy had gotten his drink and was sitting at the counter sipping it and looking out the window. He heard sniffling and looked at Clare. The thought of family made her cry. He looked at her, with a sad expression.

"Hey, you alright?" he asked. Clare's head shot up.

"Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine." Clare wiped her tears, but started to cry more.

"Hey, hey. It's alright." the boy spoke, as her came up behind her and hugged her. "It's not that bad, it'll be okay." Clare laughed and looked up at him

"Do you even know what I'm crying about?"

"No." he said, still using that comforting voice. "But, I would if you told me." he smirked.

"I'm not supposed to talk to strangers."

"Well, I'm Eli Goldsworthy. Which means I'm worthy of gold and you are."

"Clare Edwards. Which means I'm related to Edward Collin." they both smiled at each other and laughed.

"Okay, Ms. Collin, what on earth has made a beautiful lady like yourself cry this wonderful, rainy day?"

"It's nothing."

"I give you my name and ask you a long question and you tell me nothing? I wasted five seconds of my life for nothing."

"Sorry, I don't feel like talking about it."

"Come on."

I can't tell him I ran away from home. He'll probably call my parents and make me go back.

"I broke up with my boyfriend." Eli raised an eyebrow. "We lived together and he broke up with me, so I got kicked out."

"I see. How old are you?"

"16." Eli raised his eyebrows in shock. "He was an older man and my parents aren't living here. I moved with him."

"Okay. Well, do you need a place to stay? Cause I have an extra room."

"I don't think I should." Eli smirked.

"Excuse me!" Eli yelled at the waiter, and he looked up. "Do you have a camera phone?"

"Yeah?" the man said, and held it up. Eli walked over.

"Take a picture of me." the guy looked confused, but did it. "Now if that girl turns up missing, tell the police you've got my picture." Eli turned and walked over to Clare. "Now if I kill you you'll get some justice." Clare smiled.

"I'm not going."

"You want to sleep on a bus tonight?" Clare thought.

"Only for a while."

"Yeah. Now let me buy you some hot chocolate."
