A│N: Sorry that I've dropped off the face of the Earth, I've just been too busy to write. At the end of this chapter you'll find a very lame explanation as to why I disappeared. Anyway, I forgot to mention that Adam is not an FTM in this story. I know sometimes people don't like it when Adam isn't an FTM in stories, but it made that last chapter easier for me to write. Are stories with explicit sexual content actually being removed?

Warning: This chapter is extremely crappy.

Clare groaned as the sunlight beamed through her sheer lavender curtains. She rolled over and saw Eli smirking lazily. Her mother trusted Eli to bring her home safely, although Clare was pretty sure her mom was already asleep when they came in.

"Good morning, gorgeous."

"Good morning, pretty boy." Clare chuckled. "What time is it?"

"6:30 in the morning. We got two whole hours of sleep," Eli replied, going into Clare's private bathroom and turning on the shower.

"I think that's a new record. By the way, thanks for offering me the bathroom first," Clare quipped. Eli smiled and shut the door. She left the room, seeing her mother and waving when she saw her leaving for work. Clare opted for the bathroom a few doors down the hall. When she finished her morning routine, she returned to her room. She knocked on her room door checking if Eli was decent and he called her in. Walking in, she wasn't the least bit surprised that Eli was only wearing a towel around his waist.

"Well, would you look at that? We're both only wearing a towel."

"Yep," Clare winked, closing the door and locking it. She dropped her towel and sauntered over to her dresser, bending over and reaching in the bottom drawer to pull out a lacy yellow bra with a matching thong. She ignored Eli's lust filled gaze and began looking for an outfit to wear. Suddenly, Eli was behind her, grabbing the articles of clothing from her hands and throwing it on her bed. She turned around and Eli planted kisses around her chest. He grabbed her thighs, hoisting her onto her dresser and removed his towel, exposing his rock hard member. Clare smirked and wrapped her legs around his waist.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Eli waited for Clare to be dismissed from her first class. She turned around as the teacher finished assigning homework and waved. Eli smirked and as Clare walked out, she punched him in the arm.

"Ouch! What was that for?" Eli asked, feigning injury.

"You almost made us late!"

"There's no need to pretend you care about school, your mom isn't around." Clare pouted playfully at his words and Eli chuckled deeply. They walked into English and greeted Adam. Ms. Dawes, their English teacher, began lecturing the class and Adam could tell that Eli had checked out. Crumbling a piece of paper, he threw it at Eli's head while the teacher's back was turned to them. Eli jumped, scowling at Adam.

"Thanks for helping me out last night," Adam whispered.

"No problem man. Have you talked to Bianca yet?"

"No, I have class with her next period."

"Good luck," Eli responded, watching Ms. Dawes pass back their latest assignment. Eli looked over Clare's shoulder at her grade and frowned.

"Wow, you got an A, how surprising." Clare heard Eli quip from behind her. It still surprised Eli how well Clare did in school; she parties harder than all of their friends. She turned around and stuck her tongue out, glancing at Eli's grade.

"Wow, you got a C, how surprising." she began, followed by her scrunching her eyebrows together. "Wait, that really is surprising. What happened?"

"You know I'm not good with summarizing things." He answered, and Clare nodded in agreement. He was wordy at times and as he looked over his assignment, he realized that he practically rewrote "Catcher in the Rye" in three single-spaced pages while Clare had kept it short and sweet, summarizing it in less than two. The bell rang and every student rushed out of the classroom, leaving Clare and Eli behind. They packed their belongings slowly and fell into light conversation until Clare heard fast clicking coming from down the hall. She rolled her eyes and chuckled as Eli's face twisted in annoyance.

"In here, Alli!" The clicking sped up and Alli's head peaked into the doorway. Eli loved her like a sister, but those shoes would be the death of him.

"Clare, please tell me you've heard the latest rumor," her breathing was ragged and Clare was actually worried for a second.

"No, please enlighten me," Clare smirked.

"It's about you."

A│N: I just finished my junior year and I had to study for my regents (and if you don't know what those are, they're final exams). I've also been really busy with college stuff, summer plans, etc. When I wasn't busy, I suffered from writer's block. I was planning on finishing this last week, but then my boyfriend and I broke up and I kind of lost my will to write. For those of you reading my other story, "Tales of a Broken Heart", I'm not sure when I'll update it. I just can't seem to focus on writing the next chapter. Sorry for this really crappy update, I just felt like it had been too long.
