Disclaimer: I do believe I've mentioned that I don't own Degrassi. I do own a pair of extra high converse, a flat iron, hair spray, a tooth brush, and other girl accessories, Degrassi is not mine…

A/N: Funny how I got the idea for this story, I was watching a chick flick and this idea popped up. I'm not really sure where this story is going to go. I might make it just a five shot, maybe a four shot, I'm really not sure. This story is going to be a horror, mystery, and romance. Since I can't put all three genre's it's, of course, a horror romance. Um, what else to say… the characters might be a little bit OOC, but just a little bit… maybe… I don't know, but the point I'm trying to make is, I told you, so you can't bitch and complain. If you end up whining in a review, I swear the God that I don't believe in that I will call you out in a PM.

Um, warnings… hm… warnings for this story: sexual themes, language, anorexia, bulimia, cutting, blood, etc. I really have no idea why I even bothered in telling you guys, you know what to expect when you read my stories :D Anyway, reviews means I will proceed to update, so don't forget to click the review button once you're done reading! Reviews are great, a review equals updates, and reviews tell me you're interested in this story! :D Oh, and another warning, judging from the story Lust for Blood, my horror writing SUCKS, so please don't remind me -_-;

Enjoy!

Summary: Waiting for change to lead him down a more innocent path, death obsessed Elijah Goldsworthy finds it in a blue eyed beauty, but perhaps with an even darker past than his own.


CHAPTER 1

A blue Honda Civic parked in front of my house.

I looked up from my sink, the water from the faucet still going. It was parked in front of the house that was opposite of mine, a dark brick red house, with a small white picket fence, surrounded with a different variety of wild flowers. A man and a woman climbed out of the car, staring at the house in complete awe.

I narrowed my eyes at them. Just great, more cheery neighbors. This is exactly what I need. This town was full of goody-two-shoes, and having three more moves into the town would just pollute the area more.

I watched as the man and woman glanced around the house from their spot, turning their heads to glance around the neighborhood. I stared at them for a little while, and my gaze swiftly averted to the car door as a girl about my age stepped out of the car; she walked around, standing against the bumper of the car. I subconsciously licked my bottom lip, wondering if she was single, eyeballing her physical appearance. I found her curly hair to be a pleasing look, her pale skin looked creamy and soft.

I nearly dropped the plate I was washing when her gaze landed on mine, and I felt my face immediately flush pink. I picked up the plate and looked down, just as she turned around and walked up to her parents. I sighed a heavily, and turned the faucet off, placing the dish I was washing into the other sink, and then dried my hands with the dishrag.

"Oh, it looks like we have new neighbors."

I turned around, eyeing my mother. She smiled brightly, and said, "Why don't you go out and say hello?" I hesitantly chewed on the inside of my bottom lip, and turned back around, staring at the small family, my eyes were mainly focused on the girl with curly hair, who was now accompanied by another girl, with long chocolate brown hair. Might be her sister I'm guessing. I sighed in defeat. They've already spotted me, so I might as well just say hi for a few minutes.

Stepping out the front door into the bright sun, I slowly walked down my cobblestone side walk, and headed towards the parked U-Haul across the road. The sun was so damn bright, that I had to hold my hand up to shield my sensitive eyes, I couldn't help but let out another frustrated sigh as I got near them.

"Hi there." I said softly, but it was clearly loud enough for the curly haired girl to hear. She had greeted me with a small highly noticeable smile. I finally caught a glimpse of her eyes, and they were the most gorgeous blue eyes that I had ever lay eyes on. They immediately lit up as she made her way over to me. I had to fight the blush that was threatening to creep up to my face.

"Hello there." She chirped; a cute smile adorned her gorgeous face. God, she was beautiful up close. I smiled a little when she looked to the ground, her teeth started to pull on her bottom lip. Do I make her nervous? She cleared her throat and before she could say anything, I said, "I'm Eli Goldsworthy."

She smiled. I don't know what it is, but… something about this girl made me nervous. I couldn't concentrate around her. I took in a small breath to steady myself, as I watched her lips move, she was speaking but since I was so lost in my thoughts, I didn't catch a word that she was saying.

"I'm sorry what?" I asked.

She frowned, but that didn't stop her to repeat what she said.

"I said, nice name," And she smiled in approval. I couldn't get enough of her smile; hell I don't think I could get sick of it. I held out my hand and she took it. Now just tell me your name, and we will be even. We shook hands while she asked, "Have you lived here long?"

I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly, responding after we let go of our hands, "I've lived here a few years."

Her smile grew even wider.

"Really? So that means you know the area, is it as dull and quiet as everyone puts it out to be?" She asked. My eyes began to wander again, I looked behind her, eyeing the girl with long hair, who was speaking to her parents, and occasionally looking in my direction. I tried my hardest not to laugh, knowing all too well that she was watching me like a hawk. Her father turned around, and his eyes narrowed at me, glaring at me.

I grimaced.

Relax… just relax Eli…

"Oh, pardon my manners; I haven't even properly introduced myself."

My eyes shot towards hers, and I smiled a little. I asked, "Okay what is it Blue Eyes?" Her face instantly turned pink, and she stammered, "Cl—

"Clare! Who is your new friend?"

I was taken aback, eyeing the girl who was standing next to her, her arms crossed over her chest. I smiled sheepishly and the auburn curly haired girl turned to her saying, "Darcy this is Eli, Eli this is my sister Darcy." Said girl arched her eyebrow as she stared me up and down. Darcy grimaced. Damn, was I really that hideous? Darcy said, "Well nice to meet you, but Clare has to come with me now. Mom and Dad want us to go inside the house." Darcy directed the last bit of her sentence to Clare.

I watched as her face dropped.

"U-um, okay… I'll see you around?" Clare asked.

I smirked, watching her eyes drift to the ground. I cleared my throat a little, and she blinked up at me in slight surprise. I said, "I live across the street, you won't be seeing me around as much, since I'm always inside, but if you ever need anything, just shout." Before she could respond, I turned around and headed back into my house. I heard her sister and herself whisper amongst each other.

"He seems a little weird doesn't he?"

"Weird? No… he's actually really nice."

"Yeah, you say that now, wait until you actually get to know him."

"Darcy why are you always so judgmental?"

The small conversation died as I walked into the front door, slamming it behind me. I leaned against it, and my mom walked around from the kitchen, holding a dirty rag in her hands. She blinked a few times, cocking her head to the side.

She said, "You're back already? You haven't even been gone for… thirty minutes." I swallowed hard, and walked away from the door, heading towards the back of my oversized one story house, and towards my room. I walked inside, and slowly shut it behind me. I leaned against the door, eyeing the wall in front of me. Sighing heavily, I bowed my head. My bangs covered my eyes, and I couldn't help but start to laugh.

"Why do I even bother," I laughed again as Clare popped into my head, her face, blue eyes, curly hair, smooth creamy skin. I continued talking to myself, "She's way out of my league. There's no way in hell she would go for a guy like me." I shook my head and made my way to my window, peeking through the blinds. A large moving van blocked my view from the house, but I could clearly see legs moving from behind the truck, and then I saw her again.

I licked my lips.

God… could I be any more creepy. I felt like a pedophile who was eyeing a small boy. She moved around the truck, grabbing something from the back of the car she climbed out of earlier. Clare turned around and she held a thick book in hand, and then made her way to the house, disappearing behind the large truck.

I moved away from the window, and walked backwards, I sat down on my bed once the back of my knees hit the mattress. I stared blankly at the floor and sighed heavily once again.

Just as I was convincing myself that this summer was going to suck major hell, I smirked, knowing all too well that I was kidding myself. This summer, was going to be very, very interesting.
