Clare held Eli's hand tight squeezing it with her whole might just sobbing as she looked at him. Alli was waiting outside to hear word about Adam but Clare couldn't let herself think about Adam right now. The nurse had told her Adam was in critical condition she could hear her voice in her head over and over "critical...critical..critical condition Ms. Edwards..We'll let you know" She took in a sharp breath and pressed her lips to Eli's hand she couldn't stand the thought of losing either of them.

Eli watched Clare hold his hand and sob he wanted so badly to be holding her and telling her it was okay. He had given up a while ago,Clare wasn't able to see him, he wondered if it was some kind of law since he was a loved one but that couldn't be true because Clare had seen her grandmother when she died. Eli looked at his body laying there and knowing when it awakens it won't be him that is waking up to his Clare it'll be Adam and where was Eli going to go, if he left then Adams body would never come to, he needed to talk to Clare but she couldn't see him maybe he could find another ghost one with useful information.

He looked around the hospital there weren't any ghosts to be seen or maybe there were but they just looked like normal people. He wasn't really too sure how this worked and I mean did he look normal? He sighed shaking his head and walked right through a person and watched as they got the chills, he frowned mentally making a note to not walk through people it was weird. He closed his eyes and thought about Adam, his body so ruined and wrecked just like Morty, Morty was gone and Adam was gone too in a way he wasn't in Adam he was Eli now. Eli cringed at the thought of that there had to be a way to fix this..a way to get everything normal again.

When he opened his emerald eyes he was standing in an operating room, he blinked as he watched doctors and nurses rapidly move working on someone. "Wipe" a doctor called out and a nurse began to clean what he was working on and another proceeding to clean the dripping sweat off oh his forehead. He stepped closer and saw they were working on Adam, draining blood from his punctured lung as one of the doctors has mentioned, sewing up the gashes, trying to stop his internal bleeding but the worst thing they mentioned was the contusions to his head and they could only hope he would make it through the night with such a smack to his head. Eli had to look away he couldn't watch anymore and something was telling him he needed to go back..back to Clare.

Clare laid next to Eli in his hospital bed she rested her head gently on his chest the only thing keeping her sane was the steady sound of his heartbeat. She closed her eyes still holding his hand, she couldn't believe this was happening that there was a chance she could lose Adam forever, or that Eli could've died she was glad his injuries didn't end up being so serious but still her best friend. She let her tears silently spill onto his chest and a moment after she felt her fingers being played with, she gasped and looked up to see Eli looking down at her. Out of excitement she sat up quickly and pressed her lips firmly to his kissing him in a way she never had before.

When they broke apart Clare smiled placing her hands on his cheeks and resting her forehead gently against his. He smiled back pulling her close with a slight wince "Ah" he groaned softly. Clare frowned placing another gentle kiss on his lips. "Go back to sleep,please" she whispered and he nodded giving her another kiss "I love you Clare". She smiled and laid back against his chest "I love you too" She sighed a huge relief laying against him she drifted to sleep once again listening to the sound of his beating heart.

Eli had been watching the whole time he saw Clare cry and he stood next to her. His heart ached watching Clare kiss what she thought was Eli but it was really Adam. Why was Adam saying he loved Clare? Didn't he know he was Adam? Clare said the step in she dealt with didn't even know who he was at all he had lost all memories but Adam seemed to know exactly who he was talking to. It made him sick to think Adam could be that much of a bastard, had he always had secret feelings for Clare or something? Eli was so angry and hurt he could kill Adam too bad Adam was Eli now...Damn you Adam

No not damn you damn you Adam how about fuck you Adam. Eli had never felt so much anger and pain in one shot. Nothing in his life had ever hurt this bad then to watch Clare think she was kissing him but it was really Adam. His hand balled into his fist and the lights began to flicker and the door slammed shut to the room, Eli was panting even as ghost he didn't know he could feel all of this. He knew his anger was effecting the energy in the room it happened a lot at the house whenever Clare was helping a ghost that decided to help itself to their house. He wanted to thrash something this wasn't satisfying enough, but the anger vanished with the words that he just heard. He looked over to see Clare sat up in the bed staring right at him.

"W-what..no" she squeaked out her eyes never leaving him.

"Clare..its not what you think" he whispered moving to be near the bed side now.

"But you..just" she looked back at his body.

"That's Adam..."

"But that means...he's a step in.." she whispered looking at Eli then back to Eli's body still in disbelief.

"I know..that's what I figured"

"But I...I kissed him..or you or.." she wiped the tears from her eyes "How long have you been here?"

"Since the crash..Adam was angry that he wasn't breathing and I was..I think he somehow slipped in" Eli reached out to grab her hand but he couldn't grasp it.

"Eli...if he's you.." Clare began to sob and Eli went to grab her hand again but nothing he couldn't touch her, he couldn't feel her hand in his.

"We'll fix it Clare" was all Eli could manage to stutter out. Clare put her hand on top of Eli's body hand she was holding it tight trying to hold in her sobs. "This isn't you anymore..." she whispered still not processing these words as they left her lips.

"No but I'm here Clare, I'm still here and I'm not going anywhere"

"Eli you have to!" Clare raised her voice a little.

"What? No and leave you..never"

"You can't stay Eli..." Her voice shook and more tears fell.

"What are you talking about Clare? "

"I'm talking about the fact that you aren't Eli anymore...you're dead..this is Adam now!" she yelled and Eli felt his heart breaking hearing her say that. He wasn't dead..not really he was here and sure Adam was in him now but Clare was the fixer, always had a way to fix everything. Eli has assumed she would know what to do and proceed to making things go back to normal.

"Clare, please don't you know how.." Eli trailed off tears poured down his own cheeks now he hated Clare seeing him cry but he couldn't be tough right now,she was telling him to leave..how could she do that to him of all people?

"I-I don't know how..I had to send the other soul into the light..Eli you're the other soul" She let out another sob her stomach knotted and she cried the hardest she ever had still not letting go of what used to be Eli's hand. She brought it to her lips once more kissing it softly and when she looked up Eli had vanished.

Clare had spent the rest of the night sobbing against what used to be Eli, when she woke in the morning Adam or was it Eli now was playing with her hair and gently rubbing her back. She looked up at him and he leaned forward placing soft kiss on her lips, they still felt like Eli's lips and still sent the same shiver down her spine, she gave in for a second before realizing what she had done. She pulled back moving away, blinking rapidly she looked at him and confusion etched across his face.

"Do I have morning breath blue eyes?" he asked with a smirk.

"Why..are you calling me that..? Only Eli calls me that" Clare spoke softly still kicking herself for giving into that kiss.

"What..? Well the last time I checked I was Eli" he quirked an eyebrow and grabbed her hand but she pulled it away.

"No..you're not"

"Clare, I think I know who I am...I'm Eli your fiancee we live together on 1319 Clearfalls avenue, Ring any bells?" He asked.

"You're Adam.." she whispered softly

"What, is this a ghost thing?..I'm confused"

"Well yes..but..you I have to go..." She got up grabbing her things and ran out of the hospital as fast as she could. She needed to go home, away from all of this.

I know its a little short sorry guys but I felt it was powerful even though it was shorter. I hope the next chapter satisfies you. And what do you guys think is happening? Do you think Adam knows who he is? Who do you feel the worst for? What do you think is going to happen in chapter three? Are you angry with Clare for kissing Eli/Adam a second time? LET ME KNOW :)
