Chapter 4: Fall for You

Eli's Pov

July 27, 1810

I woke up this morning looking for something, and I found it. I found the girl that was in my room, reading my journal, in my dreams. I was eating with Marie and my family when she came in. My family saw how I reacted to seeing her and they know I feel something for her. But, what do I feel for her? It can't be love…can it? Or maybe I'm just attracted to her? I honestly don't know what I feel at the moment. The only thing I know about love is from me reading what it's like in books and Adams told me how he feels for Melissa. But me, I never even liked a girl. I kept all my secrets, feeling, and thoughts all in this journal. I don't know how to show my feeling for a girl, a blue eyed one especially. I'm feeling confused and lost right now. But when I was with her I felt whole, I felt right. Her name is Clare Edwards. I don't know much about her, except that she works here and that she the most beautiful thing he's ever laid eyes on. I will try to talk to her again tomorrow. I just...need to see her again.

I sighed and, put down my pen and went hide my journal in its normal spot behind some books in my shelf. I lay down on my back in my bed, staring up at the ceiling. I closed my eyes and there they were again, floating blue orbs, but this time they were brighter. The blue orbs weren't moving, it's like it was meant to stay there and not move. Look what this girls doing to me, making me feel these things I never felt before and dreaming these weird dreams. I groaned and rolled over to my side, this is going to be a long night.

Clare's Pov

I saw the light of the morning come through my eyes as I fluttered them open. I slept so good last night, dreaming of the green eyed boy…Eli. He was so perfect, well of coarse he was perfect, he was the prince. But I saw in his eyes yesterday something different, like he was lost and needed help. He looked at me with those bright green eyes of his, like he cared about me. But that's crazy talk; he probably has to show everyone he cares. I'm just a poor maid, I'm nothing special. I'm…..

"Clare it's time to get up, I have something for you to do." I groaned and rolled out of bed, went to my drawer to put on my clothes. I walked over to the door and opened it to the wrinkled eyed lady. She smiled a crooked smile and I smiled back.

"You had something you wanted me to do?"

"Yes, It's been a while since someone has cleaned Eli's room" she looked at me and smiled again, but this time I didn't smile back. She wanted me to go to Eli's room.

"I don't want to disturb him." I said ...hopeful she would change her mind (even though a part of me wants to see him again)

"Don't worry, he's with Adam." She moved aside and moved her hand in the direction of her room. "Well get going" I gulped and nodded my head. I walked down the hall and went to his main door, not the secret one I found. I knocked, please don't answer the door. I waited for a couple of minutes and put my ear against the door and heard nothing. I put my hand on the knob and twisted it until it opened. I walked in and sure enough nobody was there. It was exactly the same as the last time I was in here; his bed was still in the corner, his desk was still in the middle of his room but there was something missing. I walked up to the desk and there was no Journal. I shrugged my shoulders and looked around for what to clean first. But then the book shelf caught my eye. I walked up to it and studied the authors. There was some Jane Austin, Victor Hugo, and some Oscar Wilde books. Wow, he really did have a lot of books, I wonder if he's read them all? Well I don't really see how his room is messy or dirty. I grinned and snatched a book from the shelf. I looked at it and it was a Jane Austin book: Pride and Prejudice. I shrugged and looked around for something to sit on and saw in front of the fire place a big red velvet chair. I sat down and opened the book and started reading.

Eli's POV

I laid my head down on the soft grass in my mother's garden with Adam. Letting the hot sun's rays beat down on my face. I had a flower in between my fingers and I twiddled it around, trying to get my mind off her. But it was so damn hard! Those blue orbs that haunted my dream…I almost went try to find her last night. I was going to go find her this morning but Adam wanted to talk to me. I know he wants to talk about the girl and why I reacted the way I did. I heard shuffling beside me and I knew Adam was going to start talking.

"Eli" I slowly opened my eyes, they were burning from the suns light. I looked over to him, squinting my eyes for they can adjust to see him. My eyes finally adjusted and I looked him in the eye and he cocked his head to the side.

"What?" I didn't mean to sound so rude when I said it, but I know he will want to know things that I can't even answer.

"You know what I want to know." I smirked.

"Oh no I don't oh wise one." I joked but he just rolled his eyes.

"Eli, I want to know what happen yesterday." I huffed and rolled over to my side and onto my elbow, holding my head with my fist.

"What do you want know about yesterday?"

"The girl."

"Yes, she's a girl" I smirked.

"I'm aware, I want to know why when you looked at her yesterday it was like you saw the light for the first time." I looked down.

"The first time I saw her she was in my room and then she ran away, but not before I looked at her." I looked at Adam and he was nodding to himself. "She's beautiful and I'm confused." I said honestly.

"What are you confused about?"

"What I feel for her and just why I have feeling for someone that I know I won't be able to be with." I didn't realize till now that I can't be close to her. My gut tightened at the thought. I frowned and shook my head, I looked up at Adam. "What do I do?"

"You won't be able to be king if you be with her."

"I know"

"I think you should take some time and follow your gut Eli" I looked at him with hopeful eyes.

"I don't want my gut to do wrong and make people unhappy."

"Eli for as long as I've known you, you were always stuck in your room, you always looked unhappy, and I know your scared but you have to make your own choices." He patted my hand "You choose your own life" he stated, "Remember Grandpa used to say that." I nodded and smiled; now he was a wise man.

"Thanks Adam, I need to think." I got up, stretched and started walking away towards the castle.

"You will make the right choice Eli, you always do."

"I hope so" I whispered, sighed and kept walking. I walked in through the back and dodged all opportunities for people to talk to me. I walked up the stairs and walked down the hall avoiding my dad's room, and went to the guest bedroom where I have my secret door. I walked right in and stopped where I saw the girl… she was sleeping with one of my books on her lap. Usually I would be mad by this but…I just stood there. I walked up to her and stood in front of my big velvet chair. She looked so peaceful with her head leaning against the side of the chair and her lips slightly parted for where I can hear her steady breaths. I looked down at the book she was reading: Pride and Prejudice. I liked that book but not all of it; it was a little too sappy for me. I looked at her again; I didn't have the heart to wake her, she looked so tired. I decided I would let her sleep so I gently took the book off her lap and her hand slid of it. I grasped when I looked up to see her eyes open and looking at me. I gulped and smile, she smiled and turned red, she tried to get up but I stopped her.

"No, you don't have to get up." She sat back down.

"I fell asleep reading your book," she looked around "What time is it? I was supposed to be cleaning your room." She groaned and I got stiff…something about it made me feel different, I all of a sudden felt uncomfortable. "I always let curiosity get in the way." She kept rambling.

"Hey." She looked up "Don't worry about it." I smiled "So you read books?" I asked hopefully.

"Oh yes, I love books." She looked at my book shelf. "You have so many books"

"Yeah...i get bored and reading is very entertaining." I explained.

"I love reading too," she smiled "It takes me places." I wrinkled my eyebrows together.

"Hm that's what I say usually to people who ask why I love reading." She blushed and looked down. "So since I hear you like to read, what's you favorite book." I ask hoping to get her to stay longer.

"I like Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austin." Interesting choice. "What kind of books do you like?" wow that's a hard one.

"Wow, um I would have to say my favorite is Les Miserables by Victor Hugo."

"I've never read it but it's probably very good." She showed me hear teeth when she smiled and that's when I realized I was falling for her.

"Well it is" I smirked back. "Well since its already noon. Would you like to come for a walk with me and see my mothers garden?"

"Oh I don't know." I saw in her eyes that she wanted to.

"Don't worry, I want to get to know you blue eyes, would you do me an extreme honor and walk with me." I put out my hand and she looked at it and grabbed it.

Just to let you know blue eyes, I have already Fallen for you.
