~💙The mysterious man next door💙~<Eli x Fem Reader Pt.1>

Y/N's POV
I recently arrived at Oletus Manor, Maybe 2,1 week's ago. I was still getting used to the "game" and people here, I haven't really made any friends per say? More like people I talk to or help me like...Mutuals!. I knew a particular women, Emily Dyer. She says she's a doctor, she used to work at an asylum, kinda creepy not gonna lie. She was very kind and motherly towards me but I didn't know if it was just because I was new or if she's genuinely like this. She seemed motherly towards all of the other people, I sometimes overheard her scolding the survivors over being reckless. Although...there was one man in particular who I didn't know the name of that seemed extremely interesting yet mysterious...According to Emily his name is Eli Clark, The seer of the manor. I found it quite interesting that we had a seer in here, I've actually never met one in person.  I knew they existed but never believed in them, I always wanted to talk to the man but he was quite popular and busy most of the time so I never got the chance to say hi. He was indeed kind and seemed caring when I first met him, he gave me a warm, welcoming smile and offered to take me to my room. His room is actually next to mine, I sometimes hear him talk with other survivors but most of the time it's dead quiet. I sighed and fell back onto the bed and looked at the ceiling. I didn't know exactly what time it was but I for sure knew it was late. Maybe around midnight? I'm not sure...I felt my throat dry up and I scrunched my face. I was thirsty. I knew my way around the manor, but again it was late and I'm afraid of waking anyone up. I couldn't bare sleeping with a dry throat, I sighed and stood up, I stayed still for a while making sure I heard nothing. After a minute or two I opened the door and looked around, Nothing but a empty dark hallway. I sighed in relief and made my way to the kitchen. I heard some noises, some where animals and some were the faint sounds of my footsteps or the rain outside, I found it almost peaceful and yet a coincidence. It rained like this the same day I arrived, perhaps it's just the weather, it is early spring anyway. I noticed that some of the doors had light piercing through the sides and cracks some people must still be awake. I finally arrived at the kitchen and took an empty cup and opened a water bottle, I honestly felt kinda stupid. Why pour it in a cup when I could drink it straight from the bottle? I laughed at my nonsense and heard footsteps inch closer to me. I turned around and saw a man standing completely still "Hello?". He didn't respond, he got closer and I sighed in relief once I saw his face. It was the seer I was thinking about earlier, Eli Clark, what a coincidence. "Y/N? How come your awake? I apologize if I startled you.." I smiled and shook my head "No no not at all! I was just surprised to see someone else awake. especially you...I just got thirsty. May I ask why your awake?". He seemed a bit distracted, he flinched a bit but returned a smile "I heard a door open. Specifically yours since your next door and I wanted to see you". I felt my face heat up a bit, me? Did he mean that in a flirtatious way or in a friendly way? I honestly don't know. I placed the bottle down and turned my attention back to him "How so?" "No reason in particular...I just haven't gotten to speak with you properly but I have heard many interesting things about you and I wanted to get to know you". He seemed quite fidgety, he played with his thumbs a lot and scratched his neck from time to time. His voice seemed rather low and husky he must've been asleep.."that's rather coincidental. I was thinking about you and the other people I haven't met yet. I would love to talk to you. I was actually hoping I could speak to you in the morning or sooner". His face seemed to lit up, he had an eye mask but I could still see his smile and cheeks. He cleared his throat and placed in arm on my shoulder "Would you like to talk in my room? You seem rather kind and I don't think any of us are comfortable standing up in a dark kitchen like this, especially with the rain". I looked at his mask a bit dumbfounded "A-are you sure?" "Of course! Only if your comfortable with it though!" he waved his hands around and sort of panicked. I felt myself laugh and he immediately calmed down. "it's perfectly fine with me. Do you mind if I take the water with me?" "Not at all!". I smiled and took the bottle of water with me and followed him to his room. I noticed a few features about him that I never noticed, he's very skinny under all of those cloaks. He wore a white shirt with black joggers. It was basic but it really showed how skinny he was, He also had very fluffy like hair, it was a nice light brown too. His hands were also quite big- of course they would be, he's a male for crying sake!. He stopped walking and I looked up at him and noticed he opened the door for me. I stood still for a while but mustered a small 'thank you' and entered his room. As soon as I stepped foot inside a bird no- an owl flew on my face, causing me to stumble backwards. Eli let out a small chuckle and whistled. It seemed to have caught the owls attention, I turned around and saw him stroke the bird. "I apologize- Brooke is a very...crazy owl, I promise you she's friendly". The owl looked really beautiful and normal, it did startle me but I smiled and reached a hand to pet it "may I?" He nodded and I stroked the owl and earned a coo. It was extremely soft and adorable "what's its name?" "Brooke, Brooke Rose". Brooke..it was a beautiful name indeed, it was also feminine so I guess it was a girl, The owl soon flew away which left me and Eli alone. "Y/N L/N correct?" I nodded and placed my hands on my lap "Eli Clark?" "Yes".
...
The conversation between us two was normal. It was the usual questions like favorite food, favorite color you know the usual. Eli was a very kind person, he had a soft and sweet voice. He was also very caring and calm as well, it eased my anxiety from the loud survivors and he gave me a break. I nodded along listening to his ranting and took a sip of my water. "Can I ask you something?"
