Least as much
"None loved her more than Niklaus"
"says the guy who loved her least as much"
He was infuriated least to be told when he knew, he cursed his sister's behaviour, yet the sane rational part of his mind told him she did the right thing.
So when he was back, he let it pass.
Elijah was sad, sad for Elena, he never wanted it that way, he wanted her to choose.
Part of him really liked her. yet naturally, he couldn't scold Rebekah for it, not in that state of mind.
Rebekah was really losing it, she was really in bad Shape, that is why they teamed up to protect her against the fangs in mystic falls.
It was once that Niklaus slipped.
"Stupid, now try to deal with it" he cursed himself as he made it to her room.
"Bekah love, open up I am sorry"
She doesn't open up, so he does what he naturally does, he breaks in.
He finds her nestled in Elijah's arm with Kol shoving him out.
He breaths out relief that she was still there, safe and sound.
Later on, Elijah is down with him, scolding him stoically yet harshly.
"you can't just stop wreaking havoc or messing up who ever left that loves you, Can't you see what she has been through?"
"yes, I know better, you see unlike you I was here whilst you fled, remember why?" He feigns a thoughtful expression "Ah, The dopplegagner"
"A real good show Niklaus"
"struck a nerve, haven't I?"
"Least I can hold up not whine like a pathetic kid"
"you are scolding me for Bekah or Elena?"
"Both"
"it isn't my fault that Rebekah lashed out at her, neither mine that you have a soft spot for the dopplegagner"
"like you don't"
"Not an ounce"
"Doesn't she remind you of someone?"
He inhales sharply and grips on his glassful of red
"That I'd rather not remember"
"She screwed you up that much"
"How would you know? She loved you"
"she used us both Niklaus"
"Oh yeah, to get back at Mikael ,see we come from a along line of cheaters"
"but she regretted it and…"
"and went on to string us both, then chose me then ditched me like worthless then choose you, then strung us back and…."
"She played you I get it"
"She made me lose you" the glass in his hand shatters leaving his hand s in shreds and embedded glass
"Damn" he curses as he takes it out
Elijah eyed him indifferently, over the course of their existence as vampires he could count the times Nik opened up to him, showed his affections, reverted back to his human self, his brotherly self.
"we may have loved her both, and she played us both yet I love Bekah much more than any other female Niklaus and trust me, I will take you down if you don't manage to cheer her up and rebuild what we have been doing for the past months that you crumpled down"
"I love her least as much, Don't worry I will manage ,just need your help with something"
Next Morning,
She woke up to find a beautiful scarlet dress hanged opposite to her bed and beside her a piece of parchment ,drawn on is a grand ballroom very resemblent to their own ,full of light, people.
Centrally they were both dancing.
