A/N: 100 REVIEWS! I love you guys so much. haha. So here's the tenth chapter. I hope you are still hung on this than ever. Okay. Enjoy :3
Chapter Ten-
"Breathe in, Breathe out"
"Is he breathing?"
"He's regaining strength!" I opened my eyes and peered at the people surrounding me. There were Docters and nurses crowding around me. Great, I remember the doctor who stood infront of me with a wide smile on her face. And there was only one place I remembered her from...
Crodane.
So here I was. Lying in a mental patients bed with tubes up my nostrils and IV's plunged into my arms in one of the hospitalized rooms at Crodane. All because of her! It's all her fault that I was madly inlove with her. That I was gonna be locked up in here again with nothing but rage seeping in me.
"How are you feeling Mr. Goldsworthy?" I sat up, wincing at the pain being spreaded into my right rib.
"Just peachy. How about you Dr. Cory? Ready to put up with my sarcastic and snarky comments?" Okay, I know it's not nice to be rude t authority but in this case I didn't give a hell. She made my mind crazy from the previous times being here. She would always have weekly meetings with me and ask me how my feelings towards doing sucide attempts feel. I'd joke and say I already tried some and she'd promote me to a more civilized and protective room so I couldn't try anything risky.
Dr. Cory walked along the side of the bed and checked the heart rate machine. She bowed her head and sighed madly.
"Elijah, your gonna have to stay here for a couple of weeks. Until we figure out where you stand." I know where I stand. I should be beside Clare. My Clare figuring out our future together. Figuring out what we should be doing toward one another.
"Of course. What room now? The usual or where you'll be able to keep your eye on me?" She carfully pulled the IV's out of me and marked something on the sheet she held at hand.
"No, you'll be surprised. You'll be bunking with Brook Havings. She's been lonley for months and would enjoy the company." A bunkmate? This wasn't gonna turn out well. I could just tell.
A redhead peeked her head into the door way and announced that I had a visitor for me. Dr. Cory told her to send the visitor in and we could be left to talk. When the person walked in my insides began to inflame.
There, blushing in the corner was the auburn curly haired big stark blue eyed girl Clare Edwards. She looked a mess. As if she were crying through out this whole night.
"I'll leave the two of you to talk. Eli tomorrow morning you'll be seeing your dorm." Dr. Cory exited the room and I stared up at the ceiling.
"Eli...Why did you do this?"
"Because you left. You broke me down Clare. You had no explanation for me." She slowly paced over to me. Tension crept into the room and it made me upset.
"Eli...You don't understand. I was trying to prevent this from happening."
"What? You thought by breaking my heart you'd be able to just 'prevent' my nervous and rational breakdowns not to implode?" Clare looked guilty. Really guilty.
"Adam told me everything. About how you cut yourself and where sent here. He told me why Eli."
"Wait!" I was in a total shock. My own bestfriend. My own damn bestfriend broke the only rule in our relationship. Telling the truth about me. "Adam told you? Why would you even ask?"
Her eyes came in contact with the floor and her tone was light and sad.
"Because you where giving me mixed signals. One day you loved me...The next you had a phobia to be around me. I needed closure, the truth to proceed the feeling." This whole time Clare was onto me. Like I was with her. She was only trying to help me. Not hurt me.
"I love you Clare. I am just messed up that's all. No big deal." Silence filled the room. She heastianly pulled her eyes up to my own. Fear inside. She jumped up off the bed and frantically yelled.
"That's all! Eli you need help. SERIOUS HELP! You cut yourself deep. You loose your temper very easily. You need help!" I pulled her into a tight, painful hug and cried into her arms.
"If I go through with this Crodane thing...D-Do you promise to be there for me. Tell me what I'm doing wrong. Trust me with your secrets?" After moments of heavy breathing and unresortful crying she answered.
"I promise. You need to get your rest Eli. I'll visit tomorrow." She kissed my forehead and waved a last goodbye before vanishing. I felt like things would be clear between us now. The only thing on my list to confess is about my past. And that would be very hard to get out.

I walked out of Crodane and hopped into the station wagon of my guardians. They were very mad that I left in the middle of the night, but were concerned about why I decided to leave.
"How was he?" The two asked? I pulled my seatbelt on and made the click sound.
"He was just in various pain. Dr. Cory said he'll have to stay in there for a few weeks. To see where he's at." Bullfrog put the car in drive and we left the parking lot.
That's when a question came to me.
"Why was Eli in there before?" CeCe's voice shook when she answered and she said...
"He was servierly messed up. We didn't know how to take care of him. Make him feel better. Ever since you came he's changed dramatically. Thank you."
My mind was shaky now. Because in a very short matter of time I'd be pulled away from him. "X" will have me on my death bed and Eli would never know the truth about me. I'll tell him tomorrow. Everything I plotted out tonight. I'd have to face the consequesnse of it all. No matter how much it'd hurt.
