Friends?...with Benefits

Chapter 1:It Began one Day at Lunch

(Clare)

Clare was about to sit at one of the outside picnic tables to eat lunch when she heard the distinct sounds of a couple making out behind the tree. She peeked around only to see Jake and a girl with red hair laying on a blanket going at it like rabbits. "Really?! We break up two days ago and he refuses to sleep with me and now he's on a blanket practically dry humping some girl!" Clare thought to herself, anger and jealousy shot through her body. Her face flushed a deep red. She grabbed her bag and ran back into DeGrassi past a bunch students staring at her. She ran straight to the prop room and shut the door behind her. She dropped her bag on the floor and stomped her foot in anger.

"I can't believe him!" She said under her breath. She was sad and angry but couldn't cry. "I can't believe I was ready to offer myself to him." She thought angrily to herself. The problem was she still had all those pent up feelings inside her. Straddling him on her bed, unbuttoning her blouse, the lust, the tingling…it was all still there. She was ready to scream, and then the door opened.

"Clare are you…?"

She turned around threw her arms around his neck and kissed him with a great amount of passion and fervor.

(Drew)

Drew was near the doors when an obviously upset Clare came bursting through the doors and ran down the hall. He really didn't know the girl all that well but she was one of Adam's best friends and had always been there for him. The least he could do was check and see if she was ok. He watched her run in to the prop room and slam the door. He walked up slowly and opened the door.

"Clare are you…" He didn't get to finish his sentence because suddenly her arms were around his neck and her lips on his.

At first he was to shocked to do anything but suddenly he found himself kissing her back. When her lips touched his it was like a surge of electricity had gone through his body. That was a sensation he'd never felt before. He closed the door behind them, put his arms around her waist bringing her closer to him. He turned them around and backed her up against the door without pulling away.

"Why am I kissing Clare? She's Adam's best friend. He would so kill me if he knew. But god is she good at this. Her lips are like satin and her skin is incredibly soft. She keeps pulling at the hairs on the back of my head and it's driving me wild. For having the nickname of St. Clare she sure does kiss with a lot of passion. No one has ever kissed me like this." Drew thought at as he continued to kiss her.

(Clare)

Yes she knew it was Drew as soon as she heard his voice. Truthfully just about anyone could have come through that door and she still would have done the same thing. Ok so not an adult, Jenna or Alli or even Conner. Still it wouldn't have really mattered. She was glad it was Drew though. She knew him well enough to know he wasn't about to take advantage of the situation like say Owen would have. And honestly he was a really good kisser. Their lips seemed to be creating electricity and Clare loved it. She hadn't even felt this with Eli. His grip on her was firm but gentle and his lips felt oh so good. She bit his lower lip and he let out a small moan and parted his mouth more. She darted her tongue into his mouth and started doing the two tongue tango with him. He responded by pulling her in even closer and she was fully pressed against him now.

And suddenly the warning bell rang and they finally broke apart. For a minute they just stared at each other. Then suddenly Clare's cheeks turned red.

"Drew I am so so so sorry…I was upset because I saw Jake making out with this random girl. I mean we just broke up two days ago and I practically offered myself to him and he rejected me. I was just so…anyway I'm really sorry. Please don't tell anyone." Clare said in one breath looking anywhere but his eyes. She started to move past him to grab her bag but he caught her hand and turned her back to him. She still wouldn't look him in the eye.

"First of all Jake is an idiot for turning down someone as hot as you. Second you have no reason to apologize, it was…fun. More fun than I've had in a while. Third I think I can help you with your pent up sexual frustration." Drew smirked.

"My what?" Clare asked innocently.

"Come on you were all ready to get it on with Jake and he turned you down and you never got a release. And seeing as my last relationship ended badly and…well guys have needs. Sooo what if we came to each other when had those…needs. Kinda like friends with benefits." Drew said with a wink.

Clare bit her lip and thought about it for a second. "Okay, sounds good but two things; we tell absolutely no one and just because I was ready to sleep with Jake doesn't mean I'm going to have sex with you. I still have an abstinence ring. I won't wait for marriage but I will wait for the right person." Clare said holding up her hand to show him the ring.

"Oh St. Clare there are plenty of ways to get sexual release without having sex." Drew said. He took her ring finger in his hand and gently kissed her ring finger. Clare felt a shiver of pleasure vibrate through her body. "Now where's your phone?" She went to her backpack and pulled out her phone and gave it to Drew. He punched something in and then his phone vibrated in his pocket. "Now I have your number and you have mine. Next time your sexually frustrated let me know and I'll do the same and we'll meet up ASAP."

She smiled and took her phone back. "We should probably get to class." Clare said putting her phone in her backpack. "And Drew I'm serious not a word to a single soul."

"Not a problem, keeping it a secret makes it that much more hot. You go to class first, I don't mind being late." Drew smiled at her.

Clare smiled and left the prop room, she made it to English just as the final bell rang and slipped into her desk. "My my Clare Edwards is almost late to class. I must have been bad influence on you St. Clare." Eli smirked.

The minute she called him St. Clare all she could picture was Drew calling her that. She bit her bottom lip and smiled coyly.

"Are you okay?" Adam asked breaking her out of her thought.

"Hmmm?" She asked looking at Adam and then she blushed as she had just been thinking about his brother with his tongue in her mouth. "Oh yeah I'm fine, just fine."

"Your blushing." Adam said.

This caused Eli to turn around and look at her. "I am not." Clare said.

Eli cocked an eyebrow at her but turned back around. Clare sank down in her seat a little. Miss Dawes was having them read poems by D.H. Lawerence. Clare couldn't concentrate though. She could only feel Drew's lips on hers, his tongue playing with hers, his strong arms bringing her close to him and holding her there. She kept biting her bottom lip, and smiling and shifting anxiously in her seat. She wanted to…no needed to feel him again.

"Clare what is with you?" Adam broke her out of her thoughts once again.

"Nothing, nothing I'm just bored. I've read all this material before." Clare replied. Adam didn't look like he believed her but he turned back to the front. Clare grabbed her phone from her backpack and went through her contacts, but she didn't find Drew's name and then she saw it instead of a name it was the winky smiley face emoticon. "Drew does not get enough credit. That was extremely clever, if he'd put in his name and someone saw it…that could be bad." She thought to herself and smiled again. She opened the contact and texted Drew.

Hey we were kind of rudely interrupted by the bell and I don't think we got to finish.

She waited for a second, it only took a minute Drew texted her right back.

You read my mind blue eyes. After school prop room again?

She smiled again her body tingling in anticipation.

Perfect! See you then.

She put her phone back and looked at the clock. "The next two periods are going to last forever." She said under her breath.

"You say something Edwards?" Eli asked turning his head ever so slightly to look at her.

"Not a thing." She said biting her lip.

(Drew)

Drew slipped into science class two minutes late. "Mr. Torres I assume you have a good reason for being late to class?" Mr. Bettancamp said.

"Sorry sir I couldn't find my book." Drew lied.

"Fine join your group please."

Drew walked up to his usual table with Owen, Mo and KC. "So what are we doing?" Drew asked.

"Making some kind of chemical reaction with chemicals. So where were you really?" Owen questioned cocking an eyebrow.

"I told you, I couldn't find my book." Drew said.

"Yeah ok…and that's why you've had that goofy grin on your face since you walked in the door?" Owen retorted.

"I have not!" Drew said defensively.

"Yes you have." K.C. and Mo said in unison.

Drew blushed and looked away. "So which girl did you hook up with now?" K.C. asked as he poured a liquid into the beaker.

"Uh I don't know her name, some drama club chick with blonde hair." Drew said. "Yeah that's a good lie, they'll buy that." He thought to himself and then he started thinking of Clare. Her soft lips and hands, the way she bit her bottom lip, her body pressed up against his. He could feel his cheeks get hot, among other parts of his body, and then his phone buzzed. He reached down and pulled out his phone and smiled when he saw the emiticon telling him exactly who it was. His smile got bigger after he read her suggestive text. He quickly replied back.

"Meeting mystery girl for another hook up?" Owen asked.

"Yeah something like that." Drew smiled trying really hard to hide his smile. "Okay don't think about it, don't think about her. Think about anything else but her soft lips, that she bites in that oh so sexy…no Drew come on, concentrate on school. Is school over yet?" Drew thought biting on the inside of his cheek to distract himself.

(Clare)

The bell rang and Clare grabbed her stuff and ran out of class to avoid Eli and Adam. The next two classes dragged on and Clare was impulsively bouncing her leg under her desk. Finally the last bell of the day rang.

"Oh thank god! I was about to lose my mind." Clare said exasperated it took all of her self control not to run to the prop room. She opened the door and was happy to see Drew all ready in there waiting for her.

He smiled at her, reached past her and locked the door, took her backpack from her shoulder and pulled her to him by the waist band of her skirt…
