There was a small part of me that was upset that Clare was spying on Eli and me, But I did believe her that she had our best interests at heart. Plus, if Eli did go through something as she described then I don't want to set him off. That doesn't mean I won't hang out with the guy.

When lunchtime rolled around I went to the cafeteria and got some decent-looking lunch. I looked around at all the tables and surely enough I saw Clare sitting at a table with a girl with long black hair, and another with mid-length blonde hair. Clare saw me standing there and waved me over. I smiled at her and walked over to where the three were sitting.

"Hey Y/N! These are my friends Alli and Jenna" She says gesturing to the two girls

The girl with black hair shoots out her hand " Hi, I'm Alli! So I heard you've taken an interest in Eli?"

Clare glares at her "Alli"

I chuckle "It's fine, I've known the guy for less than a day, and I barely know how I feel about him" Lie.

"Ladies, what are we gossiping about today?" says a voice putting a hand on my shoulder which makes me jump

I turn to see Eli standing behind me with a stupid smirk on his face and I hiss at him "Don't do that"

He chuckles and I kinda lose focus for a minute staring into his eyes. He's talking but I'm not paying attention at this point. I'm just staring at his face, His eyebrows that perfectly frame his face or his jaw that looks like it could cut diamonds, or his soft-looking lips...

"N/N?" I hear him say snapping in my face and I jump back to reality

I try to play it cool with a light chuckle "Sorry I guess I spaced out there, what were you saying?"

"Well um... Could we talk over there?" He says sheepishly, gesturing to an empty hallway. I'm getting nervous I did something wrong

"Sure"

We start walking out and I look towards the table of girls making a face in which I try to convey 'If I'm not back by the end of lunch, call the police', Not literally of course. They just kinda give me a look back which I read as 'What's the worse that could happen?'

I sigh as we walk out into the hallway and Eli looks at me with those perfect eyes. It's so frustrating how perfect this boy seems in every individual way. I notice a loose hair makes its way from behind my ear and he tucks it back, which makes me blush again today!

"So um-I don't know how to approach this but how would you feel about going on a date... With me" He says trying to avoid eye contact

I swear if it was physically possible for humans I would explode at that moment

Okay gotta play this cool

"Yes Please"

Nice one Y/n

"Really! I mean- Okay that's great" He says with his face lighting "Could I get your number?"

I nod and write it down in the palm of his handwriting a heart next to it

"I'll see you later then?"

"Yes, yes, definitely," I say nodding probably way too many times

Before he walks away I grab his shoulder and give him a quick peck on the cheek before scrambling back to my lunch table...
