HERE WE GO AGAIN- CHAPTER 4
CLARE'S PROSPECTIVE
"He makes you cry, yet you beg for him…why?" Fitz asked me backing me up against the wall. When he roughly slammed my head against the wall I held my head in pain. He grabbed my wrists in a bruising grip and he shoved his face in my face. He growled, "Why, Clare? What does he have that I don't?" I looked at him and I looked at the steps leading to the basement. Eli was holding Elena at gun point. He was sweating and screeched in pain when Fitz held his knife to my stomach. "If you kill Elena, then I kill the baby. Let her go." Fitz told him. I cried and said, "Eli! Let her go!" I screamed. Eli said, "You let Clare go first." My eyes roamed around the room and I said, "Fitz…please." He wrapped his arm around my waist and said, "Elena first…" Eli gripped Elena as she sobbed, "Fitz! Just, let her go!" Eli said, "How do I know you will let her go?" I sobbed when Fitz gripped me tighter towards his body.
He held his hand over my stomach. "I think holding Clare and your child is much more important than Elena," Fitz hissed at Eli. Fitz said, "I wouldn't care if you blew her head off." I screamed, "Stop! This is so stupid! Just, both of you drop everything!" I looked around and Elena screeched, "I thought you loved me, Fitz…" Eli said, "I told you he uses people…including you." Eli winked at me and I looked in the mirror behind Eli and Elena. I saw Drew in the reflection. I lunged to the floor and everything went so quickly. Drew hovered over me and Fitz fired and so did Eli. Drew hovered over me and protected my body. I screamed, "Eli!" There was so much gun fire smoke I couldn't see, or was it just me…I was feeling dizzy…
When the firing finally stopped I looked around. "Where's Eli?" I asked shaking as Drew got off of me. "Stay here Clare…I will be back." He told me getting up. There was no sign of any of them. I saw Fitz and he was shot in the shoulder. "Drew!" I screamed. I looked up at Fitz and he held out his hand. "Come with me Clare…please…" I shook my head and started tearing when I saw his arm. He had two bullets in his arms. I said, "Fitz you need to go to a hospital." He said, "Never mind the hospital, and come with me. We can run away and get away from all of this…" Then, before I could respond Drew jumped on top of Fitz tackling him to the ground. I heard sirens and Drew screamed, "Go to Eli! Clare, run!" I got up and searched for Eli. I saw Eli lying on the ground…
I looked at him and ran towards the end of the hallway. He was lying on the ground. I checked him and Eli grabbed my hand. "Clare…my leg…" I looked at Eli's leg and saw a huge piece of glass stabbed into his leg. "Fitz…stabbed me with…" He was choking on his words and I looked at Eli. "Sh…just be quiet. Don't talk…Just, listen to me. I love you Eli, and I am sorry. I am so, so, so, sorry." He looked at me and sighed heavily gasping for air. "I love you too Clare." There was a big piece of glass and little pieces of glass in his leg. He held my hand tighter and said, "Don't leave me Clare…just stay with me. Because, I am just as scared as you are…" I looked at him smiling trying to lighten the mood. He smiled at me and began to relax. I didn't hear Drew or anyone. I wonder what happened, but I couldn't leave Eli. I heard the sirens getting closer. "Where is Adam?" I asked Eli. He looked at me, "He escaped…he is probably at the police station by now." I looked around and it got silent. I saw Elena rushing down the hallway holding a gun. She screamed getting closer as I stood. "You little bitch! You took Fitz away from me and now you are going to pay for it!" She screamed firing her gun at me…
The bullet was too quick for me to move. Eli screamed, "Get down!" He grabbed me by the arm and lunged in front of me. I tried to move quickly enough but the bullet was going to hit Eli, and I knew it. I turned my head and saw Drew jump in front of Eli and the bullet fired into his chest. "No!" I screamed. Elena tried to fire another shot but she was out of bullets. "Consider yourself lucky, you bitch. I'll come back for you…just wait." She spit at me and I glared at her. I looked down at Drew and Eli suffering because of me. "Drew…Why did you do that? You are so stupid!" I screamed as he said, "Clare…I did it because I wasn't going to…let…her get away with what she did." I smiled and I saw a tear form and fall down his cheek. The police rushed in screaming "Check the place!" I looked around and saw Drew coughing blood up. He couldn't die; he couldn't die because of me.
Before I knew it, Drew and Eli were taken strapped onto stretchers and I searched the house before I left. I looked around for Fitz, and he was nowhere to be found and neither was Elena. They, once again got away with what they did. I found my phone lying on the floor. I picked it up and dialed Adam. "Adam! I need you to meet us at the hospital on thirty fourth." I told him and he said, "Why? What happened?" I said, "I will…just get there okay?" He said, "Ok, ok I am on my way!" I sat on the side of the ambulance. I sat there with my head in my hands. I screwed up big time. I screwed up, so bad. I got Drew shot, and Eli hurt. I felt a hand over my head. I looked up and wiped my tears when I saw Eli.
He reached for my hand. I grabbed it and he held it tight. He smiled at me and said, "Don't cry Clare…" I smiled a little and Eli whispered, "That's better. We are going to be fine." I smiled at him and his eyes shut. "Nurse! Nurse!" I screamed. The paramedics immediately were surrounded by Eli. Eli and Drew were being surrounded. I heard someone scream, "This one is a goner." I looked down at Eli. "He lost too much blood. Both of them are too low, that's it. They aren't going to make it…" I said, "You have to do something!" I closed my eyes and hoped to wake up somewhere else then here…
