My creative juices have been flowing and I needed to get this out. It'll be something I've never ever ever done before and it might be a total fail but I couldn't just let it sit in my head so here it is. Please review and tell me if you'd like to see more.
Also starting a playlist with this! Pay attention to the titles!
Welcome to Vagabond (Wolfmother)
Prologue – There Goes the Fear (Doves)
I was told this for a reason.
I could've lived my entire life not knowing.
But someone wanted me to know.
Living a lie for seventeen years would've been okay. Hell, living it my entire life with this lie would've been okay.
Right now, I wish I didn't know.
Because she was in danger. I forgive her for everything. What she did…I still forgive her.
I was driving around a neighborhood I didn't know, in a car that wasn't mine, but that wasn't even what I cared about. I had to find Clare.

I couldn't focus on that anymore. I didn't notice, it was too late, because now Clare was missing.
"No…we're not."
"How could you not tell me?"
For the past few months, I was given envelopes. I was given directions. I was given evidence.
But most of all, I was given Clare. Whoever this was that was leading me to this chase, and led me to the truth, they gave me Clare. She is worth everything. She is everything. How we came together sparked from someone obviously wanting me to know the truth. But it doesn't matter how we met. I fell in love with her and knowing that she wasn't safe, it kills me.
That kills me more than knowing that I could be killed trying to save her.
"Think I'm doing the right thing?"
"Take a leap of faith, Eli."
Taking leaps of faith. Look where that got me.
"I may have lied, but look at you now."
I tried to shake that memory. It didn't matter. They didn't matter. I don't care that I grew up with parents who weren't mine. I don't care who my real parents are because now…
Clare is what matters.
"I'm so sorry."
"Why do I believe you?"
Because we fell in love when we shouldn't have, when I was searching for myself and she was there to help me, because she's Clare Edwards and I'm…I don't even know who I really am.
"Find her. If you can."
Eli vowed to. And nothing would stop him.
