To Duet With You The broken might start healing
“Evan, you’re home!”“And you must be Claire. We are so glad you could join us. Come in!”When Claire meets Evan’s mom and his little sister, she learns he looks a lot like her. He’s got her heir and her eyes.“I have a trundle bed in my room, so you can sleep with me and we can have a pajama party. But mom says you probably want to stay in Evan’s bedroom.”Claire feels her ears burning hot at Julie’s very direct words.“Don’t worry.” Evan leans in to whisper. “There is a couch I can use as a bed there as well.”“Don’t mind Julie. She is just very excited to have her big brother back home.”“I am sure we can have a pajama party.” Claire tells the girl. “I haven’t had one in years. It will be fun.”But for the moment, her bag ends up in the guest room that was reformed into Evan’s room for whenever he wants to stay with them, Mr. Fogel tells her when they sit to have lunch together.This place reminds her of the house where she grew up with her parents when they were still married or t
To Duet With You From love to lust, from lust to trust
On Christmas, Claire prepares her lemon pie, and the five of them spend time at the table and playing cards afterwards, but then they are back to rehearsing for the next song cover.“So, we are preparing the next song for you, and Claire had this crazy idea that I should sing with her. But I think she changed her mind after rehearsing today and listening to me for the first time.”“Seriously, Evan?” “I am just documenting. Say hi.”Okay then. She smiles and waves her hand at the camera.“Hi everyone! Thank you for your support with the first cover. We hope you enjoy what we are preparing for you next.”Evan is satisfied with this, because he sets his phone aside and sits on the couch, facing her. “You have not opened my gift yet.”That morning she immediately wore the cardigan Halley and Henry gave her, and she quickly saved Julie’s handmade card saying it had to go to a new scrapbook, without doubts. The small box Evan gave her is on the night table, untouched, maybe because she i
To Duet With You This is why we can't have nice things.
At some point the conversation at their table goes from how awesome it is that she is doing an internship in the best fashion magazine of the country, to wondering about Claire's whereabouts.“Why didn’t she come home? Kat, what did you hear from Claire?”“She, uhm, I do not know. She told me she already had plans, probably with her father’s side of the family.”Kat looks at her, of course, because she blames her for Claire’s absence.“Bet if she was here then those waiters would not take so long to bring us the food.” One of the guys jokes.Of course, now they all have only nice things to say about Claire. How she threw the best parties, how much of a talented singer she was, and oh so pretty. Maybe she was a bit demanding and a perfectionist, but that was also why she made such a good president of the student council.They pretend they were all friends in their senior year. As if Claire did not throw mud on Erick and ruined Hannah’s relationship with Evan in the process.It is absur
To Duet With You Remember those walls I built?
“A creamy latte for you.” This semester Claire settles for Tuesday and Thursday mornings as her fixed study hours in the library. The first Tuesday Evan is at the door of her dorm, two cups of coffee in his hand. “Thank you.” She kisses him and grabs her latte. “You did not have to do this, don’t you have classes at eight?” “Actually, I am not good at waking up early.” He smirks. “This is a good incentive.” “Smooth talker.” The year started on a positive note because they won the first place in the radio contest. Some are surprised she can sing, the coordinator of the choir invited her to join them if she is interested. This time, Claire actually signed in for the Wednesday practices. The prize also helped her to buy a condenser microphone. It seems like a good idea, if she and Evan are going to continue doing the covers. People really liked that their version of Everything Has Changed, and she is already thinking about the next one, dragging him to learn a new song. Actually, s
To Duet With You What we hold on to, what we let go
He does not understand what she is doing here, but he doesn’t have time to process it either because the next second Hannah is greeting him with a tone that is clearly set to upset Claire, and his girlfriend is taking her backpack from the car and kissing his cheek to say goodbye.“I am tired, so I am going to change and take a nap. I’ll let you two talk.”“Okay. Let me know when I can call you later.”Evan feels something heavy settling in his chest when she walks away, so he can’t help but glare at Hannah, who stands with her luggage behind her, and the innocent smile on her face.So she chose today to see him, of all the time that has passed since they broke up, and she is waiting at Claire’s doorsteps, not his. His understanding of the type of person his ex-girlfriend was changed over the course of the last year, with time giving him the perspective he lacked before.“Why are you really here?”“I missed you. Can’t I even visit you anymore?”He sighs. “Hannah, we broke up a long ti

Claire is so obvious that five seconds after she enters her room, Tessa sees right through her.“I thought you went to spend some sweet time with your boyfriend, why do you look like you swallowed a lemon?”“She is outside.”“Who?”“His ex-girlfriend. That narcissistic, double faced woman that pretended to be my friend.”“What? Why?”“Probably to try and prove she can have him back at her beck and call.”By now it is clear Tessa loves gossip, because she jolts out of bed and goes to the window trying to see Evan and Hannah. Claire does, too. But they are no longer there.“Well, if Evan is as smart as he seems to be, he won’t be cheating with that bitch. Didn’t you just spend the last twenty four hours having amazing, wild sex?”Claire glares at her, but then gives up and sighs. “He would not cheat on me with her anyway. But I still hate that she is here.”She knows she should not feel like this. She knows it is not like Evan is suddenly going back with Hannah. After all, they broke up

“Ok, ok. I got it.”“Why does it feel like you want to get over the boring practicing bit of this?”“It’s not like that and you know it.”Teaching her how to play a part of this song is an excuse to tease her. He’s touched her in ways that make every dream fall short in comparison, it is even a bit funny that her cheeks get flushed and her heartbeat gets louder when his hands are on hers. But she also gets over too fast for his liking, and then she learns fast. Evan cannot get over her magic in the same way. She looks at him as she sings, it’s distracting because every time Claire does it, it feels as if she means every word.She does, and maybe that is why she captivates her audience. The comment sections of their videos are filled with more positive than negative comments.I love watching and hearing you guys. Every cover you do feels like you are telling your own story.Watching you makes me believe in love again.He also agrees with them, in that Claire makes him believe in the p
To Duet With You Thinking out loud
The night before it was easier to walk away from her father, furious as she was, and most importantly because she did not want Evan to be subjected to his judgment. Conciliations are more difficult than disagreements, which is why Claire is so apprehensive as they walk into the cafe where they are supposed to have breakfast together.She is also grateful that Evan is next to her, he did not have to do this, but his sole presence is encouraging her in ways she can't measure. “I’ll only greet your father before I go, but I am always just one call away, okay?” These words right before they enter the cafe work their magic to reassure her.“Ok, thank you. Evan, it's not the first time I’ve had a disagreement with him, I’ll be fine.”Her father still wears a severe expression on his face when they reach his table, but she is just pulling out a chair when he throws hostile words.“I invited my daughter, and I would like to talk to her without outsiders.”“Dad…”But Evan just smiles.“Of cou
