3rd person
Eli sat down beside Clare on there bed and patted her forehead with a wet wash cloth.
"Eli, I told you I am fine," Clare insisted. "Ok, I will be right back." He kissed her cheek and left her in the room beside Ali. He slowly shut the door behind him and went in the kitchen and grabbed 2 bears out of the fridge. He sat down on the couch next to Dallas. "Here." he handed Dallas a glass bottle. "Thanks." The room was uncomfortably silent for about 10 minutes. Eli broke the silents. "Ok, am I the only one who is scared here?" "Yeah, of course were all-" "No, I mean... do you not see a pattern?" "With what?" He took a deep breath thinking how slow he is to catch on. "In the killings? Adam, Jake, Connor. Dude, dude, dude. It looks like the killer is one of the girls, and the only reason im telling you this is because..." he took a deep breath swollowing his pride, "is because... I dont think you did it." Dallas sat back drinking his bear taking a minute to process what Eli was saying. "I dont think it was you either. So that leaves the girls." "I dont think Clare did it, she is tore up and I dont think you can fake a fainting that well." "Yeah, I dont think Clare done it either. I wish I could say the same for Ali but..." Eli looked around to see if any of the girls were around. "So that leaves..." "Katie and Ali." They both sat back on the couch drinking there bear.
Menawhile...
Clare sat up beside Ali. "Ali? Do you have any Pain killers for my headace?" "Clare Edwards. I didnt think you were the drug type." "I meant like, Ibuprofen." "Oh, no I will go look in the medicine cabnit." "Thanks." Ali shut the door behind her.
Clare's POV
I thought to myself 'didnt I pack some?' I got up off the bed and opened my drawers. Nothing. 'Maybe in Eli's closet?' I opened the closet next to Eli's side of the bed. Now that I am thinking about it I'm not sure why Eli got the closet and I got the chester-drawers. I looked through his duffle bag. Nothing. I slid my hand around on the top shelf that I was to short to see. 'boxers, t-shirt...' Something fell to the ground. It took me a second to react. Then I accidentaly kicked the object under the chair in the corner. 'why is there a chair in here?' I shrugged it off. I stepped out of the closet and grabbed the flashlight in my top drawer. I got down on my hands and knees and shined the light under the chair. There sat a knife. Not a regular knife. A knife with... dry blood.
I screamed and stood up and shut the closet. I ran back over to the bed so anyone who came didnt see me in Eli's closet. Eli soon swung the door open. "CLARE! Whats wrong are you hurt?" I took a second to recover my words. "I-I... Head-ace...i think its a migrain. It-It just like attacked me and my head- really... it really hurts." He sat down on the bed next to me and pulled me into a big hug. I shived with fright as knowing I was now hugging a killer.
Soon, Ali, Dallas, and Katie ran in. Dallas ran over to us. "Whats wrong Clare?" I tried to recover my words again but nothing. Eli spoke for me. "She had a really bad migrain attack." "Oh." Dallas sighed with relief and turned toward Ali. She then came over with us and handed me the bottle of ibuprofen. I was scared I didnt even know I was shaking. "Are you cold," Katie asked gently. "I-yeah." Eli pulled the cover up on us and I layed on his chest, scared as shit! Dallas, Ali and Katie retreated in the livingroom.
I decided if I was going to say something about the knife I needed to do it now. I stood up off the bed. "What are you doing Clare?" My back turned toward him. I started to tear up. "Whats wrong? Did I do something?" I turned toward him, my eyes flooded with tears. "E-Eli. Did you do it?" "Do what-" "DONT LIE TO ME! DID YOU KILL THEM?" He stepped toward me, I stepped back. "I found the knife in your closet. Dont try and lie." He looked at me confused and opened his closet door. "Where?" I took a deep breath. "DID YOU DO IT," I screamed. "He closed the closet door. "Adam was my best friend and I was just starting to be friends with jake and I harly knew Connor." "That isnt what I asked you!" "Clare, I didnt do that. I am being framed... I swear." "THEN WHY WAS THE KNIFE IN YOUR CLOSET?" I screamed loud enough to make my point but not to the point where the others heard. "I dont know... Clare you have to believe me." "Thats the thing...Why dont I Eli? Why is there this voice in the back of my head saying Eli did it, Eli did it." "Because... the knife was in my closet." I stepped closer to him crying. I went in the closet and grabbed the knife under the chair. I opened the door to the hallway and walked swiftly toward the living room. I threw the knife down on the table in front of Ali, Dallas, and Katie. Eli soon walked up behind us. There faced were in ah. My eyes still tearing. "Which one of you did it?" Katie started to tear up to. "Where did you find this?" She picked it up and started examining it. Katie quickly threw the stained knife back on the table and back up. I took a deep breath considering weather or not to tel them where I found it. "I found it in my closet." Katie Dallas looked at me confused. "I thought you found it in Eli's closet." I took a step back realizing that they now know that i have lied. "I-" Eli interrupted me. "Wait! How do you know where she found it?" Dallas at this second looked forever guilty. "You? You did this? YOU KILLED THEM?" Dallas took a step back and started laughing. An Evil laugh.
