Lets Catch UP

It's been about 2 months since I've met Eli Goldsworthy. To be honest I never thought that I would meet someone I wanted to be with so badly since, well lets not talk about that. Anyways I met him at school in the drama room, I was looking for Ms Dawes, trying to see if I could help with the drama department after school, since my best friend Ali suggested it and then that's when I ran into Eli.

"Hey you look kind of lost." His gorgeous smirk immediately caught my eye.

"I'm looking for Ms Dawes, have you seen her?" I responded trying not to blush.

"Well that depends, what do I get if I tell you I've seen her?" I was taken back by such a response from someone I just met.

"You can get the gratitude of helping a poor lost girl who's trying to find the drama director." I smiled in my sarcastic response while he smiled back.

"I like your style."

"Well what can I say it's a gift really.?" we both giggled and he pointed towards the back of the stage.

"She's over there "

"Thanks so much"

"No problem, see you around uh?"

"Clare"

"Eli" I smiled, he smiled and I walked off.

Well I guess our meeting isn't so grand and obviously I thought he was cute but that wasn't exactly the part where I was completely swooned. Lets just fast forward to now, that way you can see why I'm completely falling for this kid.

As I walked to the drama room with my best friend Ali we were chatting it up until we reached the door and there I saw him leaned against the stage with Fiona, who thank god is a lesbian other wise id be super jealous. Every time I see him I get extremely happy like a little kid, butterflies in my stomach and a stupid grin stretches across my face.

Ali and me approach the stage.

"Hey guys" Eli says.

"Hey Eli hey Fiona" she waves. Ms Dawes appears from the back.

"Oh Ali thank god you're finally here I need your help with costumes, Fiona you too."

They nodded and both went with Ms Dawes leaving Eli and me alone.

"So what's up how was your weekend?" Eli asks.

"Fine how about yours?" I'm always so quick to respond to him because I get so nervous.

"Good, you look tired." I hate when people say that, it's like a nice way of saying you look like shit.

"I know I look a mess today." I giggle.

"No you don't your beautiful come on now, plus I hate when girls where a lot of makeup and there hair is all done up like there going to prom, come on now its school." He smiled.

"Shut up" I giggled.

"Come on would I lie to you" he smiles at me and I completely melt.

"I'm going to go help, with the costumes." I say and start heading towards the back of the stage and I here Eli walking close behind me.

"So on Friday there's this reading going on, you should come"

Oh my God Eli just asked me out! I'm so excited I have to tell Ali. I never thought he would ask me out, I thought it was just harmless flirting. Wait say something idiot he's staring at you like your stupid!

"Uhm… sure sounds great, uh where's it at."

"its at the bookstore by the dot, it starts at 6."

"Cool ill be there."

"Great see you then" he smiled and headed back towards the front of the stage.

I ran backstage to Ali.

"Oh my god oh my god oh my god!" I screamed.

"What what what?" Ali chanted back.

"Eli just invited me out on Friday"

she immediately screams.

"Yes I knew it I knew he liked you okay what are you going to wear how are you going to wear your hair? You should wear blue because..."

While Ali continues on with her rant about my appearance I cant help but think about Friday. I'm so excited. I never really get asked out, actually this would be the first and I'm super happy Eli asked me.

After we were done with the costumes me and Ali headed to my house.

"So explain to me again how he approached you." Ali demanded

"Again? I've told you like 4 times already."

"Aw come on Clare, its so cute, I'm just really excited for you."

"I know but don't jinks it, I mean what if it is a friend thing you know like what if he has a girl friend and is trying to set me up with like a weird best friend or cousin? Worst what if he's gay?" I start going crazy my mind is swirling with different scenarios of why he would ask me out to a reading.

"Clare he isn't gay"

"YOU DON'T KNOW THAT" what if Eli is gay and he just is looking for a friend hangout session thing.

"OKAY calm down, look if you're so unsure why don't you look on his facerange."

I freeze and give Ali a smile.

She stares blankly at me "What something on my face?"

"No your brilliant see this is why you're my best friend."

"Some of us are born this way"

We both giggle as we race back to my house to get to my laptop.

once we get to my house we burst through the door and run up the stairs.

"Ok moment of truth." I type his name into the search bar.

"Ready for this ?"

Ali asks me. I nod my head yes. And click search. Thank god there is only one Eli Goldsworthy. I click on his profile and then his info.
