-1A/N: still no dream sequence requests. Well…there was one that I wasn't sure if it was a request. Please request dreams or I will be unable to think of any. So far, I have three which all follow the same basic storyline (a storyline which will later become my next Klaus/Elena fic) PLEASE HELP ME! Can be smut, fluff, romance between any characters but it must have Elena there or Katherine, since all the dreams are through her eyes.
"Elena…" called a singsong voice from distant point above my head. I opened one eye.
"What?" I muttered sleepily. A delicious smell caught my nostrils and I opened my eyes fully. A plate of food was sitting not three feet away, next to Klaus who was cross legged on the floor, by the doorway.
"I brought you some breakfast if you want it" he said, offering me the plate. I looked at him suspiciously.
"What's the catch?" he shrugged. I still didn't move. He sighed.
"Fine. You want to starve because of your pride, fine by me. Go back to sleep" he was annoyed, I could tell by his eyes. Annoyed that I hadn't fallen for his trick? Or some other reason.
I expected him to leave but he stayed where he was, the plate of food at his side. Hmmm…
I decided to ignore him and focused my gaze on the other side of the room. Klaus began to hum quietly, something that sounded suspiciously like the Harry Potter theme tune.
"Do you have to do that?" I asked, irritated.
"Hum? Not really but I'm going to continue"
"No. sit there"
"I sit where I like. My house, my rules, remember?"
"How many times are you going to use that pathetic excuse?" I asked.
"As much as I can. Bothering you is entertaining" he said. I ignored him and closed my eyes.
"Pleasant dreams Elena" he whispered.
I was in a garden, dressed in an old fashioned dress that was synched in at the waist. Bonnie and Caroline were with me, one either side and they were also dressed the same although Bonnie's dress was plainer and she was wearing a white bonnet.
"Honestly Elena, I don't know how you manage in a house with all those young men lusting after you"
"Well Caroline, it is hardly my fault if they can't keep their eyes to themselves, now is it" she laughed.
"Oh, Elena" she said, her gaze directed somewhere else in the garden "it looks as if one such admirer wishes to converse with you" I followed her gaze and saw Klaus coming towards me, dressed in a suit.
"Elena" he said "May I speak with you?"
"You are speaking with me" I said.
"Alone?"
"It would be most improper of you to request this" I said. He smiled roguishly.
"Yet you know I will"
"True. Bonnie, Caroline, would you excuse me for a moment?" I followed Klaus along the path, around a bush until we came to a concealed corner, shielded by ivy.
"Have you thought any further about my request?" he asked.
"Yes"
"And your answer?"
"No. as always" I turned to leave but he grabbed my wrist.
"Why Elena? Why must you do this?"
"Because I am to marry Stefan! You know this as well as I! Why can't you accept it?"
"Because I love you and I will fight for you. Marry Stefan if you must, but do not leave me"
"You are asking me to take a lover?" I said, eyebrows raised "Never! Besides, in a month's time you shall leave here and forget about me"
"I will never forget about you. Why can't we be together?"
"I am bound by the rules of my society. You are not. That is why"
"Elena…please. Run away with me. I need you to be with me…please"
"I can't Klaus" I said, bowing my head.
"Then…meet me tonight? By the lake? Please?" I heard someone calling my name. Father.
"I have to go" I said, turning once more.
"Say you'll be there"
"I'll be there" I promised, kissing his cheek.
My eyes snapped open.
"Bad dream?" Klaus asked, a blatant smirk on his face. I jumped slightly. One, I hadn't been expecting him to still be there and two, he was a lot closer then he'd been when I'd gone to sleep.
"Did you do that?" I asked, breathless. He rose from his seat and came over to me.
"I'm sure I don't know what you mean" he whispered, his lips grazing my ear. He turned and left the room. I sighed and pressed my head against the cold wall. Great…
**two days later**
The next few days continued much the same way. Klaus would arrive, offer me food. I'd refuse, I'd have a weird dream, Klaus would try and annoy me before leaving out of boredom. I was hoping that he'd get bored and impatient of keeping me locked up before I died of hunger. But I wasn't that hopeful.
"Elena" Klaus said, coming in with his normal plate of food and crouching at my side "Come on. Eat. No strings attached"
"No" I said, looking away.
"It's just a plate of food. Nothing sinister" he promised. I shook my head. He grimaced.
"At least drink some water" he said, nudging the water bottle that had been sitting next to me for three days.
"No" I said, simply. I didn't want to touch anything he'd given me.
"Why not?"
"Because you'll use it against me later" I said.
"Come on. Just give in and you can be out of here. Nice clothes, soft bed, food, showers" I jumped to my feet, anger lending me strength.
"Do you expect me to whore myself out to you for a pretty dress? Let you feed from me in return for a shower? What kind of girl do you think I am?" he shrugged.
"Katherine would have" I grabbed his shirt, shoving him against the wall. I think it was more out of surprise that I managed it.
"I am not Katherine" I hissed. He flipped us round so I was against the wall.
"I know" he said, a malicious smile on his face. His hand grasped my flesh tightly, his mouth rested on my neck. Then, he was gone, leaving a burning imprint against my cold skin.
A/N: This is the Nightlark Early Warning System. The next chapter is going to be a nasty one. I mean…really nasty. As in, me letting a large chunk of my psychotic mind out. It will include mental torture and a lot of desperation. If you don't like that kind of thing, let me know and I will mark off the nasty bit with a triple X, so you know what's safe to read.
