Clare's POV

"Fitz, did you see that too?" I asked.

"You mean the bottle? Yeah…" Fitz answered. Either Eli had a really bad cold, or he's planning on doing something drastic.

"Fitz you should go. I have find Eli, I don't want anything to, you know." He stared at me

"But Clare! You can't! Emo boy – I mean Eli is dangerous and shit, he could hurt you! He isn't thinking straight."

"Emo boy? Really? Fitz, go home." I shoved him out the door and locked it behind us. I ran down the road, following the way I saw Eli go. Then I remembered, he'd be driving. There was no way that I could catch up to him like this.

I pulled out my phone and dialed his number. If I couldn't see him in person, I'd have to at least talk to him. Talk him out of taking the pills.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiing. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiing. There was no answer, so I tried again, finally, I heard his voice.

"Yeah?"

I was frantic. "Eli? Eli! Where are you! Eli, it's Clare. We have to talk!"

"Clare, I'm kind of in the middle of something." He sounded relatively calm.

"Where are you?" He said the streets where he was parked at, which wasn't too far from where I was. I ran to the road and finally, I saw his hearse in the distance. It was sitting there, waiting for me.

The moonlight let me see inside – Eli was in there, sitting alone. As I got closer, I noticed a half empty bottle of water on the dashboard. I was terrified for what Eli may have done, so I yelled.

"Eli! Open the door!" I pounded on the glass of the passenger's seat and he proceeded to roll down the window. "Eli, did you take those…those p-pills?" I stuck my head in the car.

"So what if I did?" He shrugged. He wasn't acting like himself at all; his face was paler than I was used to, his eyes dull.

"Eli. I'm serious." He grinned and threw something my way. Of course, I knew right away what it was. The very pill bottle that I spotted before except it was different now. Empty.

I was debating whether I should get into the car with him. If I did, I would be able to talk to him and get him to the hospital. But also, he could drive away and get me killed. Yet, if I don't he could drive away and kill himself or never get to the hospital and die.

So for Pete's sake, what am I supposed to do?

Before I could make my decision, Eli drove away smiling. As he revved the engine, I heard him whisper something. "I'll be with you soon, Julia."

And after that, I lost it. I was screaming and crying when I realized it would be best to call an ambulance for him. 911 said they would hurry, which is what they're supposed to do.

Luckily for me, Eli's vintage hearse isn't really a speed demon, so I could run after it and still have it in sight.

Eli's POV

Julia, don't go anywhere. I'll be there soon, I promise. I can't wait to see her – Julia is my one true love.

Why would I need Clare?

She's only a heartbreaker. Julia is the one for me.

And if Clare was choosing that bastard, Fitz, I didn't want to be in this world.

Death will be my happiness.

I felt Morty going as fast as he could go, and then I closed my eyes and fell into a deep, deep sleep.

Clare's POV

I couldn't keep up with Eli and Morty for long. It's not like I'm a fricking marathon runner. But as I walked down the road, trying to keep in the same direction as him, I prayed.

God, please let Eli be okay. He can't die. He just can't. I know he doesn't believe in you, but please, God.

I heard an earsplitting noise and began to smell smoke.

And then there was an orangeish red light coming from a car.

A hearse, to be exact.

Author's Note: Ohhai I wonder what happened to Eli. MAYBE HE'S DEAD. Hmmmm. Maybe he's in a coma. Maybe he just wanted a nap? xD lolol. You'll have to wait and see. Reviews? I hope you enjoyyyy. xoxoxosteff
