Having her so close to him, the protective instinct in him grew immensely as he felt her behind him

A small adrenaline rush came onto Penelope as she heard a third set of steps, then a third breath. She was looking around all sides, too afraid to look behind her. The steps quickened and appeared right beside the two of them. As quickly as he had appeared he disappeared but with something, Penelope. A small yelp escaped her mouth before the man covered her mouth and escaped into the shadows..

Quickly turning around to grab her, but it was too late. His heart was pumping even faster than it was before and his head started to pound.
"PENELOPE"
Eli shouts as he runs towards the direction that the man had taken her, quickly getting out his phone flashlight and aiming his gun wherever the light shun.

Either Penelope had been blindfolded or it was super dark, she couldn't tell. She was shaking, tears streaming down her face as the man took her deeper into the parking garage. More memories were flooding into her head making Penelope freeze, her breath shallower than it had been before and heart beating faster than it had. It had gotten much much darker for her, so at that point, she couldn't see anything at all, not her hands and definitely not her captor.

Running deeper and deeper into the darkness, letting his flashlight guide him as he took each step.
"Hey!!! Let her go and i won't have to shoot you!"
He says loudly, and rather harshly. His voice scratching our of his throat, booming and echoing throughout the place.

The man looked behind him, seeing light coming behind him. He darted around a corner and through a gate. He dropped Penelope, taking off his hood. It turned out she wasn't blindfolded because light filled the room after the sound of a switch. She rapidly blinked both adjusting to the light and trying to blink away the still-strong stream of tears. Looking up, she instantly recognized her captor's face. He gave her a not-so-friendly smile, causing Penelope to crawl back into a corner. Her breath was as fast as the second hand on a clock.

Running up to the sound of a thud he turned the corner near the gate and saw them as he shun the light on them.
Penelope!! Are you all right?!"
He says glancing over to her, pointing the gun at the man who took her.

Penelope looked up upon hearing her name, jumping up immediately and clinging onto Eli, tears still streaming, heartbeat still rapid, and breath still shallow. There was nothing that could stop her from holding onto of Elijah.

His heart felt as if its been tied into a knot as she clung onto him.
Immediately he shot he guys leg with almost perfect aim, covering penelopes ear that wasn't against his chest as he did.
"Let's find your bike."
He says holding her rightly as the man fell to the floor.

"No no no-" Penelope couldn't say anything else, her voice incredibly quiet and still full of fear. She was still shaking unable to move much more than she already had. She was sobbing into Eli's chest, soaking his shirt.

"Okay okay. We can leave."
He says holding her close to his chest. He could feel his own heartbeat thwacking against his chest, sure Penelope could hear it.
"Let's go home then…okay?"
He says softly as he stroked her hair, kissing the top of her head.

Penelope nodded into Elijah's chest, still clutching onto him as if for her life. Her mind was going to fast to notice a heartbeat. The only thing she fully knew was that she was holding onto Eli and she felt safe with him. "T-thanks…"

"Okay….here are you hurt? I can carry you."
He says bending down to her height, wiping a tear from her cheek and kissing her forehead softly.

Penelope shook her head. "L-let's… let's g-go…" She looked into Eli's eyes, glancing to his lips for a split second them back up to his eyes, hoping he didn't notice. She hugged him again, her shaking had calmed down, but her heartbeat was still pretty fast.

"Oh I'm so sorry. Youre okay now."
He says with a whisper, moving her hair out of her face and behind her ear, though cursing himself in his thoughts. He officially hated himself now.

"No need to be sorry… I pulled you into this…" Penelope looked down, her face tear-stained. "Thank you…" She said in a quiet voice, remembering what had just happened.

Letting out a heartbroken sigh as he pulled her close to his chest holding her tightly. He didn't want to let go. That was the very last thing on his list of to-dos, which wasn't even on a list of to-dos. But he knew he had to.
"Okay let's go."
He says grabbing her hand and walking towards the entrance.

Penelope gripped Eli's hand, staying very close to his side again. She had no intention of letting go of his hand any time soon or leaving his side for that matter. She felt really bad for bringing Eli into that mess.

As they headed outside, Eli holding her hand as they walked out, the light entering their pupils as he squinted. Harley looked at the two, running over to them and cursing under her breath, then smacking Eli in the head.
"What the h*ll did you do!??"
She says annoyed, then she looked at Penelope and her heart dropped.
"Did he hurt you?! What happened?"

Penelope shook her head. "N-no… I… there was a guy and… he tried to kidnap me… and… Eli, he was right there to help…" Her breath was speeding up again as she recalled the events that had just happened. Tear stains were still very prevalent on her face. The memories were also coming back, making her tense up again.

Hugging her once again, Eli kisses the top of her head as he held her.
"It's okay."
Harley stepped back and leaned against the car, about to open the door.

Penelope clung onto Elijah, listening to his heartbeat which seemed to always calm her down. She closed her eyes and tried to take a deep breath, failing as it was still pretty shallow.
