Degrassi: The Story Of The Un-Expected (Eclare Fan-Fiction) #Wattys2016

The Hunt

Eli's P.O.V.

Why? Why would Clare sneak off like this? Hormones are really getting to her. I know her better than anyone. I know that hormones isn't the only thing that is behind this behavior. Now I know how Clare felt 4 years ago. She used to think I was mysterious... Look who's mysterious now.

Clare had helped me through my bad times. My REALLY bad times. I need to help her. This is serious. I will take down anyone who makes a joke about this. Wow, my inner goth Eli is acting up.

I need to text Darcy.

DARCY EDWARDS:

ME: Hey Darce, Can you help me with something?

DARCY: Sure. What do you need?

ME: Okay promise me that you won't tell your mom? Clare would kill me.

DARCY: Promise.

ME: Clare is having quadruplets and she got mad during a fight after the appointment and she stormed off to Alli's house (What I heard), and Alli and her had a fight so she went to your dad's place.

DARCY: W-whoa, 4 kids?! And it's kind of ironic how Alli and her are still friends. Anyways, Yes I do know where he lives. At your wedding, when he came, he gave me the info.

ME: Thank goodness. May I have it so I can find her?

DARCY: Okay.

ME: Thanks Darcy:)

DARCY: No problem;)

Darcy gave me the address about an hour later. I needed to know where Clare went. I need to call her.

Calling... CLARE EDWARDS:

CLARE: Uh, hello?

ME: Clare! Where are you?

Clare: Um... Just hanging around why?

ME: Just wanted to know.

CLARE: Okay bye.

Now I knew for sure that she was at her dad's house. All I had to do is drive there.

I arrived at the house about an hour later. I wonder if Clare really walked that far.

I got out of my car and walked to the door. As soon as I rung the doorbell, Clare opened the door. "Wha-what are you doing here?" Asked Clare. She has said that phrase so much that it could be famous!

"I wanted to come check on you. And I have some bags for you in the car if you're not ready to come back" I lied.

She looked like she was in her pajamas all day. She said,"Eli I know you well too. There are no bags in that car. You came here alone" then she gave me a look.

I said,"I really just want to know if you were coming back. I can talk to Simpson into him letting you not come to Degrassi tomorrow if you want me to"

"Thanks. And I kind of miss that giant house of ours" replied Clare with a smile.

I smiled back. Man, that was so easy! I of course didn't want her to miss a day of school, but it really wasn't my choice.
