Chapter 14
Clare took a deep breath and reached for the doorknob. She let out a sigh and opened the door. Putting a smile on her face, she swung the door open. Eli looked up in surpirse.
"Hey," he said, giving a small smile.
Clare returned the gesture. "Hey. Why don't you come in?" She sidestepped out of the way, allowing Eli to walk in the house.
He looked around. "So, where's her room?"
Closing the door, carefully not to slam it, she said, "Follow me. It's just down this hall."
They walked in an awkward scilence, not one of them daring to speak. The only noise heard was their shoes hitting the white tile floor with each step. It only took a few seconds to go from the entrance to Elizabeth's room, but it felt like hours - long, miserable hours.
Finally ariving at the pink and orange wooden door, Clare spoke, "This is it."
Eli nodded very slightly and went for the metal handle. Slowly, he twisted it and pushed it open. The door creaked loudly. Clare saw him flinch at the sound. Then, Eli carefully stepped onto the bright pink carpet, looking around the room.
Elizabeth's room had not be touched since Clare did her laundry earlier that tradgic Tuesday. Her bed hadn't been made, her computer was still pulled up to facebook -the last website she was on that morning, and she was still logged in- and her dresser and closet were still open from picking out her close for that day. The walls were orange on two sides, pink on one, and black on another one. She had posters hanging from her walls of famous actors and actresses and pictures of her and her friends taped to her mirror. Her fish, Greg (who is a female), swam around her tank happily as if nothing was wrong except the lack of food that was supposed to be floating on the surface of the water.
Clare reached into her pocket and grasped her daughter's iPod. She looked up to see Eli still looking around the room, his eyes landing on the fish. Clare pulled the device out of her pocket. "Um," she started. "Elizabeth had an iPod, if you'd like to look through her photos and music."
Eli's head whipped around to face his ex. "What kind of music did she listen to?"
She smiled. "Mainly rock." Clare unlocked the iPod and scrolled through the artist. "30 Seconds to Mars, Sleeping With Sirens, Miss May I," she recited, "Black Veil Brides, Bring me the Horizon, Asking Alexandria, Woe is Me." She glance up. "Any good ones?"
Eli gave a nodded. "No Dead Hand?"
Clare shook her head. "No Dead Hand." She addly shyly, "I guess she got her taste in music from you."
He gave a light chuckle. "I believe so." He took a step back, his knees quivering. "Uh, where's your bathroom?" He avoided Clare's soft gaze and focused on the floor.
She cleared her throat. "Right down the hall. The second door on the left."
"Thanks," was all Eli could manage to get out before taking off down the hall. The flung the door open, rushed it, and swiftly closed and locked it.
He couldn't do this. It was just too nerve-racking. He ran a sweaty hand through his messy hair. Why did I get my self into this?
