Elijah looked at his watch for the 5th times, he was in advance, he knew it but it couldn't hold it anymore, he needed to see her now. Each time he had heard some heels sound he had turned around to see if it was her. He was standing in front of the Bacchanalin, in a two piece Armani suit, his left hand resting in his trouser pocket when a trail of shivers run along his back, she was here. He turned around to see her arrive; she was wearing a short red dress, covered of black lace. Her chocolate eyes were looking straight to his, her long lock were bouncing while she was walking. She reached him fast, maybe too fast. Elijah takes one step to make the small distance between them disappears, and slightly kissed her right cheek in a sweet move.
Katherine's breathe stopped when Elijah brought his face next to her; she closed her eyes to smell his perfume. He left her cheeks burning after the passage of his soft lips, she looked right to his eyes before to made her amazed gaze go away in a blink. She needed to be strong and to not show him what she really feels. She made one of her brown curl go behind her hear with a smirk. "Let's go!" She quickly passed neck to him, walking to the entrance of the restaurant.
Elijah stayed straight; he could have sworn that she had really felt something and then nothing. She was playing, but when? Did she really felt something and she was hiding it from him or didn't she felt anything and fake to manipulate him? He signed and followed her quickly inside the restaurant; they sat at a small table in the corner of the restaurant next to a window. A waiter rapidly came next to them and gave them the menu of the restaurant before doing a bow a turned around, but Katherine quickly grabbed his wrist and forced him to look into her eyes. "Two glass of Champagne and another full of your blood. Thank you." She let go his wrist with a smirk.
Elijah signed deeply, she will never change. He took the bottle of water which was on the table and filled his glass.
Katherine watched him with an eyebrow raised. "What? Are you are to drink water? Because I'm not!" She finished her sentence with a smile.
Elijah took a sip of his drink before to put it back on the table annoyed. "I'm here to listen to you, Katherine. So could you please tell me why you made me come here?"
Katherine kept his gaze fixed on his in sign of provocation. "Can you not be this hypocrite, pain in the ass original?"
Elijah raised his eyebrow in surprise in opened his eyes widely. "I'm sorry, I'm what?"
Katherine made a quick pout and shrugged her shoulder. "Oh you know, this guy you put his family first but only when he wants to, this man who is supposes to be a good man who ran after a girl for 500 years and locked her in a tomb for his brother even if he actually hated his brother and the only girl's sin was to save her life."
Elijah crossed his arms and laid his elbow on the table. She wanted to play, he will play just like her, or maybe worst. "The only sin of the girl was to save her life? Yes, it's not like for 500 years she had manipulated people and lied to everyone, she actually used a man's loved to save her life, and I'm pretty if hasn't been the only one even if he was the first. And she probably wasn't as good as that since her family throw her out. Why would they do that if the girl didn't do anything?" Katherine stood without saying anything speechless, Elijah continued "What is funny, you know, is that I had looked for some information about this girl and I have learned one little interesting thing. She had a child. But apparently this kid got abandoned, left alone by her heartless mother. But when you know what girl of girl she is, it was maybe a good decision to leave the child, she would have probably been a horrible mother and her child was better without her." Elijah ended his sentence with a small smirk.
Katherine looked through his eyes for few seconds, trying to control her feeling, he has no idea how deeply he hurt her. She suddenly pushed her chair away from the table and get up; she started to walk quickly to the exit of the restaurant. She pushed the door and kept walking a little a bit to enough for from the restaurant so she could use vamp speed, she passed her hand over her eyes trying to erase the tears which were filling her eyes. All of sudden she felt a hand grab her wrist and be pulled against Elijah's hard chest in a forced hug. She tried to push herself away from him but she couldn't. Damn it, this original was way stronger than her, she thought. She finally gave up pushing him away and let him hugs her but she kept her calm, she couldn't lose it in from of him.
When Elijah felt Katherine had stop to fight, he allowed his hand to slowly stroke her hair. They stayed like that for few long minutes, he quietly whispered in her ear to stop the silence. "I'm sorry… I shouldn't have, I don't know anything about this story."
Katherine closed her eyes, resting her head on Elijah's head, she slowly said. "There is a cure for vampirism."
Elijah frowned, and started to laugh nervously. "What? Have you drunk before to came here?"
Katherine rolled her eyes up and pushed him a bit away to look at his eyes. "No, there is really cure. Apparently our dear Elena Gilbert became a vampire and the Salvatores are looking for the cure for her. But I just thought that maybe we could help each other…" She made a pause for few second before to continue sincerely. "I don't want to run anymore, Elijah. I have done it for 500 years now, I'm done. I just want to take than damn cure and give it to Klaus in exchange of my freedom." She added in a whisper, looking down. "Even if I have the feeling that he will never agree this, that's why I need you…"
Elijah listened Katherine's word very closely, he believed her and wanted to help her, her life has never been easy. He felt sorry for her and was ready to say yes, to accept to help her at any moment, until he heard her last sentence. She needed him to make the deal with Klaus, he instantly realize what it means and why she called him. She was using him. All this, the cries and the hug it was just manipulation. He suddenly pushed her away in a rough move in front of a speechless Katherine; he put his hands in his pocket, and bites the inside of his cheek to contain the anger in him. "I was wright when I said you were a manipulated bitch. I actually didn't say it like that but that's what I meant. You just keep lying to my face, what am I supposed to believe? Does the cure really exist? Is Elena a vampire? Or that was just one of your lies?"
Katherine opened her mouth in surprise, what was happening? She tried to defend herself. "I didn't lie and I'm not lying right now!"
Elijah shook his head in sign of unpleasantness. "Just stop talking. I don't want to hear a word coming out of your mouth. I shouldn't have come and you're lucky that I pity you enough to not cut your head off right now!" Elijah directly used vamp speed and walked away.
Katherine felt apart on the floor without making a sound, she refused to let the tears come and she just stayed silence. She had lost her only chance to get her freedom and she had lost the only man she has ever really loved.
