So, I was thinking about starting a new story… anyone interested? Any ideas? I might start doing One-Shots, since sometimes I get inspiration to write a piece, not a whole story. This chapter is going to FULL of drama, so BEWARE.
*Eli's POV*
I tried to process what I just read, it may involve a gun. Watch your back little emo boy. To say I was scared was an understatement. My thoughts were interrupted by Clare, sobbing. I walked over to her and put my arms around her. She buried her face in my chest and cried. I could feel my shirt begin to turn damp.
"Shhh, baby it's going to be okay." Her cries began to slow down a little. After a couple of minutes she pulled away from my chest, her eyes red and puffy. Her big blue eyes looked at me, filled with pure terror. I could feel my heartbreak at the sight.
"Eli… what if you get hurt? I couldn't live with myself if you died because of this case. I can't loose you Eli…" she whispered the last part, but I could still hear it.
"Clare, I'll be fine. Your not going to loose me, I've dealt with death threats before, nothing is going to happen." I tried to reassure her, but at the same time I felt like I was also trying to reassure myself.
"Why don't we go back to my house and look at the information, make whatever calls we need to make?" I asked her. I figured she would be too scared to stay here.
"Okay…" she whispered. I grabbed my bag; putting all of the files in. we headed out the door. I locked everything up. I looked around to make sure there wasn't anything suspicious. I didn't see anything so I out my arm around Clare's waist securely, and made my way to the car. I helped Clare get in, and made my way to my side. As soon as I was about to open the door, I thought I heard car tires. I turn my head, looking everywhere, but saw nothing. I just shrugged it off and got in the car. As we started driving away, I noticed a black van get behind us. As we kept driving, it followed us. A bad feeling started to develop in the pit of my stomach. I started to drive away from my house.
"Eli? Where are we going?" Clare asked me worriedly.
"I don't want to scare you but, I think someone's following us. So, I'm going to drive around; see if they are or not." I noticed a tear trickle down her face, so I grabbed her hand as we continued to drive around.
"I'm going to take us to the library, that way if someone is stalking us, they won't hurt us since there are other people around." She nodded her head slowly. I pulled up to the library, looking behind to notice the black van gone. I let out a shaky breath as we got out of the car. We made our way into the library and decided to look around. We made are way to the back, looking at the wide selection of books available.
"I think someone's stalking us, here, right now." Clare told me. I waited a little bit before I turned around to see a black figure disappear quickly, not wanting to be noticed. I grabbed Clare's hand and started walking around the library. Then I noticed the black figure open the back door to escape.
"Get ready to run." I told Clare. I then held her hand tight and ran fast pulling us to the entrance. We got outside to see someone's shadow by our car. I put a finger to my lips, signaling to Clare to stay silent. We crouched down and walked slowly to Morty. We got to the front of Morty; I peered around to see the shadow still there. I slowly made my way around the car when all the sudden they turned to looked and I was face to face with a person in all black wearing a clown mask. I was shocked for a couple of seconds until the clown leaped at me. It began to punch me, and then I heard Clare shriek. The last thing I heard before I blacked out was.
"Not so strong now, emo boy." Then darkness consumed me.
Pretty intense right? I hope you liked it, and PLEASE REVIEW. I cannot stress this enough. I need to know people are actually reading this. I know I said I wouldn't abandon the story, but if no ones reading it, then I will. I WILL ABANDON IF NO ONE REVIEWS. So, get your fingers typing.
