Thank you guys SOOOO much for the reviews. It made me very happy that people were reading and enjoying the story. I don't know how often I will update but I will try and update at least once a month. So, enjoy. :)
*Clare's POV*
I can't believe I'm doing this. But, I have to save Eli. If I don't, I don't know how much longer I live without knowing he's safe. I took a deep breath as the police car pulled up the abandon warehouse that we were going to use to lure the kidnapper. To say I was scared would be an understatement, I purely terrified. Remember, your doing this for Eli. I kept saying that in my head, trying to calm down. I shakily opened the car door. I stepped out on to the cool gravel.
I shut the door and stood next to the car, unaware of what to do.
"Are you sure you want to do this Clare? You can back out, but, you have to decide now." Officer Stevens told me. I let out a shaky breath before I spoke.
"I have to do this for Eli. I love him and, I just… need to know he's okay." The officer nodded his head and grabbed his walkie talkie. He began talking very fast and quietly, nodding his head occasionally. He stopped talking and put away his walkie talkie. He looked at me, almost pleading with his eyes for me to cancel this.
"You ready Clare?"
I took a deep breath.
"As ready as I'll ever be."
*Eli's POV*
No, no, no, no, NO. I thought to myself as I quickly ran to the police station. How could she do that? Is she crazy? Well no shit Sherlock she is, she could get hurt! Why Clare? Why must you worry about others so much? After running for 15 more minutes, I finally reached the police station. I panted heavily as I opened the door. I jogged to the main desk.
"E-e-excuse me… do you know where I can f-find a Clare Edwards. D-do you know where she went-t?" I asked, panting heavily the whole time.
"I'm sorry bro, that information is not available to the public." The officer told me. I groaned, completely frustrated and pissed off. I grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him up to my face, mere inches from each other.
"Listen here, my girlfriend is about to be kidnapped because she thinks I'm missing. I love that girl and I can't live without her, so please, just tell m where they went to I can stop them. I'm begging you, dude." I pleaded.
"Dude, they went to abandon warehouse on 6th street. Go to your girl, you don't have much time. Here's let's take my car, we can get there faster." I nodded and thanked him endlessly. He hopped in the car and he floored it. We got there in less than 8 minutes. Cop cars were everywhere, but the only thing I was concerned about was Clare. Suddenly, my eyes landed on auburn curls. I couldn't help but smile widely, there's my girl. I hopped out of the car but then was met with a horrible discovery. A masked figure was standing beside her, gripping her waist tightly, with a gun next to her head. She had tears in her eyes and was shaking terribly. My heart broke at the scene before me.
"Stay right where you are Goldsworthy, if you move she get's it. And you wouldn't want that now, would you?" the masked figure asked me as they chuckled darkly. I began to shake at the thought of Clare dying.
"What do you want?" I asked the figure. They chuckled and began to loosen their grip on Clare. Clare took that point to bolt away; as she ran all I heard was gun shots and screams as I blacked out.
*Clare's POV*
After I felt the masked figure release their grip I decided to run. As I ran I heard gun shots and turned around to see bullets and people going everywhere. Some people fleeing the scene while others were trying to save each other. But, all I could think about was Eli. What if he was dead? What if he just died because I decided to run away at that moment? I screamed and was then dragged away. I began to scream when I felt someone's hand on my mouth. I thrashed and did everything I could to try and get away but it was no use, this person was not budging.
I felt their breath on my ear. I began to cry, I was purely terrified.
"Clare its okay, its Officer Stevens, please calm down." He let go of me and I turned around to be faced with the white haired man. I pulled him into a tight hug and began to sob uncontrollably. He held me for a couple minutes then said.
"Come on Clare, let's go visit Eli."
*Eli's POV*
OW shit. What happened? I slowly opened my eyes to be blinded by lights. I groaned and heard light snoring. I look and see Clare cuddled into my side on the hospital bed. She must have put my arm around her and passed out. I lightly chuckled at how adorable she looked; lips slightly parted, hair every which way, snoring lightly. I kissed the top of her head and pushed some of her curls out of her face. I began to close my eyes again when I felt the little, warm body next to me stir. I closed my eyes tightly; I didn't want to disappoint her with seeing me as soon as I woke up. She stirred a little and looked at me, her big blue eyes staring at me, innocently. She gently pushed my bangs away from my face and moved a little to kiss my cheek. After she kissed my cheek I felt her move closer to my ear. I could feel her hot breath on me, and then she completely surprised me. She kissed my ear slowly and whispered 'I love you, Eli'. She slowly pulled away from my ear and laid her head on my chest, drawing lazy circles on my chest. I couldn't take it anymore; I needed her to know that I was okay.
I slowly opened my eyes, green clashed with blue. I saw her eyes light up as she saw me.
"Hey, Baby Blue." I told her. She gasped and slowly started to get off my chest. I wrapped my arms around her and held her closer to me. Soon are faces were inches from each other. I smirked and quickly said.
"I love you Clare." And I kissed her, deeply. She quickly kissed me back; with just as much love and compassion as I had. I felt her began to smile into the kiss, and I began to try and kisser her deeper. My tongue licked her bottom lip, begging her for entrance into her mouth. She gladly let me as she slowly opened her mouth. Our tongues began to wrestle. I couldn't help but be intoxicated by her, she tasted exactly like strawberries. We both pulled away at the same time, slightly panting. If I could kiss her forever, I would. We put our foreheads together, letting our breaths mix together. We were both smiling widely at each other. And in that instant, I knew any obstacle we went through; we'd make it out okay.
*Clare's POV*
After mine and Eli's little kissing session we laid down and watched a movie. He held me close under the warm blanket. Occasionally, he would nuzzle his head into my neck and give it a quick kiss, which always made me giggle.
"Hey Clare, I just realized, I don't know why I'm here." Eli asked me. I couldn't help but blush, I can't believe I didn't tell him before.
"Oh, um… whenever the gun shots went off your twisted your ankle and fell. You were unconscious. We think the gun man thought you were dead, that's why he didn't shoot you." I said nervously. The whole scene began to play in my head. I felt tears begin to well in my eyes at the thought. I tried to compose myself so Eli wouldn't notice but, of course he did.
"Blue Eyes, baby, what's wrong?" He asked me, his voice full of concern and love. I felt a tear slide down my cheek; Eli grabbed my face in his hands and wiped my tears away with his thumbs. His jade eyes were full of concern and worry, pleading me to tell him what was wrong. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding in.
"I was just thinking about earlier. Eli… I… I thought you-u d-d-d-died." After that sentence I began to sob hysterically. Eli quickly wrapped his arms around me and held me tight. He whispered over and over again that he was okay. I continued to cry for about twenty minutes. Eli pulled away and grabbed a Kleenex from the nightstand. He wiped my puffy red eyes and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
"Clare, it's okay, I'm fine and healthy. Were together again; I love you okay. Please, Blue Eyes don't cry again. Let's get some sleep okay?" I nodded my head and we laid down. He tucked me into his side and kissed my forehead. He began to play with my curls.
"Goodnight Clare, I love you so much." He said to, and I knew he meant every word.
"Goodnight Eli, I love you forever and always." I said, he kissed me curls and continued to play with my hair until we both drifted off into a peaceful slumber.
