Clare's POV.
It's been two days since we found out Owen was the one who had snatched Eli.
My heart and mind were still set that Eli was still out there alive and that he was a lot closer than I think.
Me and Adam were still think of why Owen, of all people who snatch him. They had barely talked to one another.
My thoughts drifted off and now it was just Adam and me still in the kitchen eating breakfast.
For some odd reason I had remember that I didn't get the mail this morning.
I slipped out the door and as soon as I got both feet out I got the sudden eerie feeling of being watched.
I quickly made my way to the mailbox grabbing everything inside and I quickened my paced to the door. I swung it open and quickly shut it tight.
I glanced at the mail briefly. Bill, Bill, Bill, Coupons, For My Clare, Bill.
Whoa hold up, what?
I pulled the letter from the rest of the mail. With trembling hands and a shaky breath I opened up the envelope.
Pulling out the sightly crumpled letter, my breathing completely stopped.
I immediately recognized the handwriting, Eli's.
Blue Eyes,
You can't hear or see me. Well I think you can hear me, just barely.
I'm pretty sure I'm still still alive.
I'm half way right now. You have to find me soon before it's too late. Please.
I'm always around, Remember that. I'll help as best as I can.
Your,
Eli.
I gasped and the letter had fallen out of my grasp.
"Clare?" Adams curious voice was suddenly right behind me.
I looked up at him, my mouth gaped and eyes as wide as ever. My face was clearly shocked and Adam quickly figured it out.
He's here? Like here here?
The sudden eerie feeling was back but now it wasn't as creepy after reading the letter, but still alarming.
He's not completely gone?
Adam reacted down for the letter on the floor. His eyes scanning over the crumpled letter, his expression mirroring mine.
He was just as confused, shocked and just as alarmed as I was.
"Adam..." My voice barely coming out as a whisper.
"Eli where are you?" I wanted to scream but my voice didn't come out as more than a whisper.
He was so close but just out of reach for me.
Eli's POV.
I wrote the letter to Clare trying to explain what's going on, the best I could without completely scaring her.
I placed it in her mailbox before she checked it. I watched as she opened the door to get the mail.
And from the second she walked out the door I knew she felt uncomfortable by the look on her face.
She could feel my gaze on her?
She nearly fell on her face while sprinting to the door after she grabbed the mail.
I just walked though the door with ease, waiting for her reaction to the letter.
Her hands began to tremble as she found the letter in the pile, she had pretty much stopped breathing as she opened it up.
Her eyes became huge and her mouth had fallen open as she finished reading the letter.
Soon Adam had also found the letter, his expression similar to Clares.
Adam left shortly after and Clare made her way upstairs.
She can't hear me or see me, but surprisingly I can still write to her. That was my way of communicating and i'll take it.
I sat on Clares bed watching her pick out her outift for the day.
It pained me that I could see her but I couldn't touch her.
She can't feel my touch.
'Eli..' She whispered.
I looked up, I thought she had seen me but I was wrong. I was holding the picture of us taken on our one year anniversary.
She was looking right at the picture but the one she was looking at was on the nightstand.
Even though I had just picked it up, she still can't see it in my hands.
Tears started streaming down here face, and sobs overtook her body. I cursed that I couldn't be holding her right now. My heart shattered every time a new tear would fall.
"I miss you Eli, I need to know where you are. I can feel you around me."She was talking quietly, she spoke in that angel like voice of hers.
I scooted closer to her, and her eyes immediately shut.
I wanted to scream that I was right next to her, but I knew she wouldn't be able to hear me.
But hey it's worth a shot. "CLARE!" her head immediately whipped around looking for the source of the voice.
She can hear me but just barely.
Her eyes wide and her heart racing she got up and raced out of the room.
This is killing me, I can fell my body slipping away and my heart beginning to beat slower.
It's now going to be a race against time.
Clare you have to figure out where my body is, please!
Clare's POV.
I heard him I think!
The shivers that went up my spine were chilling.
I raced out of my room as fast as I could, I was terrified for some reason. But I quickly walked back in and sat back on my bed.
He's here I know it!
I'm going to figure this out, it's going to kill me but i'm not giving up.
I grabbed a sticky note and wrote down the only thing I could at the time.
'Eli?' I placed it on my wall hoping I will get a response soon.
I got up off my bed and walked out of my room, briefly looking back at the sticky note hoping when I return there will be another hanging there.
I picked up my phone and dialed Adams number.
"Hello?"
"Hey, I wanted to ask a favor. Can you drive me too the park?" My voice pleading with him.
"Uh, sure Clare. Why do you need to go to the park?" His voice unsure.
"Eli and I have a special place where I got whenever I need to think," I paused taking a breath. "Because right now I need to think and declutter my head."
In his groggy voice he responded. "Ehh, sure. Be ready in 5 minutes."
And with that I hung up the phone and got my coat on.
I went out the door, locking it and sat on the porch waiting for Adam.
He soon pulled up and I jumped in.
Now it's off to our special place.
So I got some questions for the story. Yes Eli can still write, but he can't be seen and he's barely heard.
And my friend actually just told me about that movie, she told me yesterday my story sounded like a movie called the invisible or something like that.
I'm just going to have to watch that.
But tell me whatcha think? Bitte. (:
