Chapter 8: Jealousy
"The Village." She smiled wide. Clare started walking away only for me to grab her and pull her back against my chest.
"Where are we going to stay at this Village?" she chewed on her bottom lip and looked up at me.
"We will have to see when we get there, and find someone who would be nice enough to let us stay with them. I do know someone in the village who would let us stay, that would be my best friend, but they wouldn't have room." She frowned slightly then took my hand.
"We have to start walking now if you want us to make it there by nightfall." She stated, with my hand still in hers she started walking in the direction towards her village, but I pulled her back in one swift movement to which she was facing me.
"Clare, I want you to know before we continue on, that I will do everything in my power to get things back to normal and make you safe again." She smiled shyly and looked down at the ground.
"We can make it through anything Eli, even if it's just to stay away from your dad for a couple of days." I looked into her blue eyes that were full of trust, but you could see behind all of that, she was worried too.
"I'm just scared my father won't accept me, my decisions, and most importantly you by the time we get back." I lifted my free hand to rub my thumb against her cheek, while looking at her with confused and scared eyes.
"Your father loves you and he will except your decisions, by the time we go back he will be begging for your forgiveness." I shook my head sheepishly and returned the smile she was giving me. She turned to start walking but stopped and a gasp, I went to grab her, thinking something was wrong when she bent down and picked up a little blue flower.
"When this flower is shown directly into the sunlight it turns a greenish blue." She smiled wide, twiddling the little flower between her fingers. I sighed and put my arm around her waist pulling her towards the village.
"Come on, love."
She was right; it was already nightfall by the time we arrived. It looked like most people in the village were already asleep, but there were a few lights on, here and there. It was very dark out; the moon was shining against Clare skin making her glow. She was smiling looking around the village, her eyes would sometimes get wider, probably from something that has happened before, and she was shivering. I held her tighter and looked around; we passed an old couple that didn't look at us as we walked by. I could see a boy around my age, picking up wood from the ground, looking very deep in thought. I looked down at Clare and she was looking at him too, also very deep in thought. We were about to pass him when I stepped on a branch, the boys head snapped up. He looked at me and then looked down at Clare and gasped.
"Clare?" he asked taking a step towards us. "Is that really you?" I glared at him then slowly looked down at Clare, who had her head cocked to the side and then her eyes widened in realization. By that time she was gone from my side and hugging the boy in front of me. I glared angrily at him, balling my hands into a fist, and watching the girl I love snuggling next to this boy.
"Jake." I heard her whisper against his chest. I stayed there glaring at him, watching to make sure his hands and eyes stay were there supposed to. But I couldn't take it anymore.
"Clare." I said, placing a hand on her back. She unwounded her arms around the boy and took a step back, and when she did this I pulled her back tucking her gently under my arm. Jake looked between us and sighed.
"Jake, this Eli Goldsworthy." All he did was stare at me, making me feel uncomfortable.
"The Kings son." I nod my head once. "What are you doing here?"
"We can explain later, we just need to find a place to stay for a couple of days" Clare explained.
"Well it's okay if you stay with me, it's just me in there, and I'm sure I could fit two more." Jake said with a friendly smile, but I still didn't like it.
"Yes." Clare said as the exact same time as I said my answer.
"No." I looked at Clare. "No." I glared straight into her eyes; I didn't want her under the same roof with this boy. She lifted a brow and turned to him.
"We would love too, thank you Jake." I huffed and tightened my grip in her. He nodded, picked up some wood and started walking towards the little wooden house. With Clare still under my arm I followed him into his house. Once we got inside I looked around, there was a stove on the right, a wooden dining table with four chairs in front of the stove, there was a bed in the corner on the left, beside it was a door to the washroom, and a quilted sofa against the wall next to a fireplace. I looked at Clare who was staring at the bed with her eyes heavy. Jake must have noticed this to because he went straight to the bed and pulled back the covers, and then looked at her. With her feet dragging against the ground I finally pulled her to the bed, she fell unto the bed with a huff, and I pulled the covers over her. I leaned down and kissed her cheek before standing up and looking over at the boy; Jake.
"Thank you." I told him as he lit the fire.
"No problem." I nodded and walked over the sofa and sat. I stared at Clare as she slept peacefully; with her lips parted, her messy curls, and her hands under her head. She was beautiful.
"You're in love with her aren't you?" I heard Jake ask, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Yes." He nodded looking disappointed.
"What?" I asked him.
"Since were living under the same roof for a few days I guess I should be honest with you." He looked at Clare, longer then I would have wanted him too. "I used to be in love with her too." My heart stopped. I stopped breathing, clutching the material underneath me to stop me from attacking him. I gulped, resting my elbows on my thighs, and rested my head against my hands rubbing my temples. I looked at Clare, still fast asleep. Of course he would love her, who wouldn't. With her looks and her personality, she was perfect.
"I even told her I loved her and she said she loved me too, but not that way." I sighed, still trying to regain my breath. I nodded still unable to speak.
"She one amazing girl, I'm glad she found you though." I looked at him, crinkling my brows. "You could give her much more than I ever could, you could give her everything her heart desired." He smiled sadly. I suddenly felt bad, for ever having those hatred feeling towards him. If my father wouldn't accept my decisions, I would want her to be with him. He may not be able to give her everything she wanted, but I know he would go to great lengths to make her happy.
"If my father can't accept her and I can't be with her, I would want her to be with you." I say, speaking my thoughts and looked at him to see his reaction.
"I would gladly take her, but why would your father not accept her, isn't that a bit extreme, she's just a girl." He shook his head. "She would be no harm to the Kingdom." I sighed.
"My Father is very powerful man. He has since I was I was born told me that I was to be become King, but I never wanted it. I didn't realize that until Clare came along. I fell in love with her instantly; I knew that I would have to tell my father. As you know now he didn't take it so well. He didn't understand why I would throw away everything he has taught me, for her." I looked at Clare that was now on her back with her hands to her sides, still fast asleep. "I overheard his plan; he wanted to take her away."
"That's a bit drastic." He looked down. "Where would he take her?" I shrugged.
"Anywhere, he could send her to a whole other Kingdom If he wanted too."
"That's why you are here?" I nodded.
"I will do whatever it takes to make her safe, and if that would be to let her go in the end, so be it." I closed my eyes not wanting to think about ever being without her.
"Let's not think about that, you look tired." I sighed nodding my head. I got up and walked over to where Clare was laying. I crawled to the other side of the bed, with my black bag still in my hand, and sat up against the headboard. I looked over at Jake to see him already passed out on the sofa. Quietly I took out my journal and started to write.
July 27, 1810.
I write in this journal for first time away from the Castle. I had told my father that I didn't want to be king yesterday, which is what had brought me to today. He doesn't understand that for me, love had concurred all…all of me. Clare is everything to me. She has taught me so much in just the few days that I have known her. She made me feel all these emotions for the first time ; pain, sadness, happiness, love. I've felt some of these emotions before but with her they were more powerful. Today she made me feel this horrible most selfish emotion…Jealousy. The way she hugged her friend Jake, all I wanted to do was snatch her away from him, and hide her. Now here I am, becoming friends with the boy, who told me that he had once loved Clare. I told him a lot, and he was very understanding. I have never felt such pure sadness until this night talking to this warm hearted boy, if everything didn't work out, I honestly would want Clare to be with him. As I'm writing this, my heart is beating really fast and my palms are getting sweaty. I just…
I just can't live without her.
Well...what do you think? You see I added a new character in there! Jake :P I think this chapter made up for the last one, I hope I answered some of your questions J
Okay so here are my new story idea's ~
1. The Twilight Saga/Eclare ~ yes if you choose this, it would be the whole saga…Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. I think it would be really fun to write some intense love between Eli and Clare J
2. Edwards Manor ~ Eli is a servant to the richest people in town; The Edwards. He only works there for one thing; there daughter. Clare Diane Edwards. It's an intense love story between two total opposite people.
3. She's my obsession~ this would be my first Flare fanfic. Fitz has always loved her from afar and his thoughts the first time he has ever laid eyes on her. Pouring all his feeling out into his head as he stared at her…she was his obsession.
Aha..so do you like? I want you to review and put a number when you review on which one you think I should write. Also..do NOT steal any of my idea's.~ Thankyou.
HOPE YOU ENJOYED! PLEASE REVIEW!
