Selina found herself lying down in the middle of the road, about 500 meters away from where Beth was killed.
She was staring up at the night sky, watching the stars sparkling trying in vein to brighten darkness. She used to love the night, with the stars and the moon. Now she feared it, she feared the darkness because she knew what hid within it.

She placed her arm over her eyes blocking out the world, and sighed loudly. The sound of an approaching vehicle not effecting her at all, and she showed no sign of moving. The gentle sound of the car slowing down meet her ears but still she showed no intrest. Not even when the car door opened and closed and the sound of approaching footsteps did Selina aknowledge it.

"You do know this is a sure fire way to get your self killed, don't you?" came a voice that she could have picked out any where. Elijah. Confusion flew though her brain a million miles a minute, how is this possible? He was dead in the Salvatore's basement.

Selina slowly moved her arms from her face and cracked one eye open a little, and glanced up at the man, then groaned, before slamming her eyes shut again and rubbed her face roughly.

"What!? How!?" she growled jumping nearly a foot away from the old vampire, her eyes narrowed in suspission, causing the man before her to chuckle softly at the young werewolfs reaction to his sudden reapperance.

"Please don't panic, i merely wish to speak with you" he smiled down at Selina, who was still laying on the road. He put a hand down in offer to pull her up, she glanced at it momentarily before brushing him aside and standing up in her own accord, though she saw it, she deicided to ignore the brief look of hurt that shot across his face at her rejection to his help.

"Ok then, your here. I'm here. Talk" she said with a hint of irritation in her voice, as she crossed her arms over her chest, keeping her eyes on Elijah's face.

"Klaus is in town, you can't trust anyone. He could be any where, and the only way you are going to be able to find him is with my help. I know he's tricks." Elijah spoke with a hurried tone, almost like he was scared of being overheard.

This sparked Selina's intrest, who could big bad Elijah possibly be frightened of? She glanced up at him, being almost a foot shorter and sighed. She sighed and dropped her gaze to her hands, where a ring her mother had given her sat on her right middle finger, her eyes then moved behind her while she was lost in thought.
Until finally they returned to Elijah who was still standing before her.

"How do i know i can trust you?" Selina asked softly, her eyes holding an innocence that hadn't been there for many years, as she absentmindedly started twisting the ring on her finger.

Elijah tenderly placed a hand under her chin and rose her head, stooping slightly so he could look her in the eyes.

"You don't. But i promise you i would never do anything to hurt you" Elijah spoke softly, a look of complete compassion on his face, Selina smiled softly at the look of sererinaty in his eyes.

She had no idea how it happened and she had no idea who made the first move. But the next thing she knew,
she'd leaned forward and smashed her lips onto Elijah's throwing her arms around his shoulders, as Elijah's arms snaked around her waist and pulled her closer to him. She couldn't help but notice how well they fit together,
and how safe she felt in his arms.

Finally she pulled back for air, Elijah placed his forehead against hers and smiled at her, "Remember what i said"
he reminded her before placing a tender kiss on the top of her head and walked away.

Selina woke up cuddling her pillow tightly to herself, she shot up in her bed and threw her pillow across the bed, groaning in frustration. How could a dream be the best you've ever had yet also the worst. She had never thought of Elijah in that way. Ok, so that was a lie, she found him attractive.

She glanced down as her phone lit up alerting her to a new text message, she picked it up and read it. Just a reminder about the decade dance that night.

She thought back to the dream, if she was right and Klaus was using Ric then they were all in deep trouble and the only person that could really help them now was Elijah.

She had come to the conclusion that she did need help from Elijah, but she couldn't get to that help until it was unprotected. The best chance she had was the decade dance, while everyone's backs were turned and distracted by the dance, she was going to revive Elijah.

Her thoughts drifted from Elijah to Beth, she had made the hard desision last night to not allow the death of Beth to consume her, but rather let it help her. She was going to put all her anger and depression into helping Elena.

All she needed to do now was come up with a believeable reason as too why she wasn't going to the dance, and she needed to make sure that everyone else went. She needed the Salvatore place to be empty, which wasn't a problem seeing as both brothers would be at the dance.

Then she had it, she grabbed her phone and quickly dialed Elena's number, impatiently waiting for her to answer.

"hello, Sel you ok?" Elena finally answered, Selina closed her eyes tightly and prayed that she would be forgiven for what she was about to do.

"Elena, i've had a phone call off a friend from college, who just found out about Beth. She is pretty cut up, so i am going to go see for a few days. Which means i won't be at the dance. Do me a favour babe and pass the message on?" Selina replied already feeling awful for her horrible lie.

"Oh, yes of course. Don't worry about anything, i'll sort it. You go and help your friend" Elena replied.

Selina thanked her quickly and threw her phone on the bed, now she needed somewhere to hide her car, people would know something was off, if she dissappered with her car. The only thing she could think of was hiding her in the woods behide the Lockwood estate.

Just over an hour later, after telling her mother where she was going and her car safely hidden in the woods, she now had to be sure not to be seen until everyone was at the dance.

After spending hours avoiding everyone, the sun finally set and night time fell. Telling her that everyone would be getting ready to leave for the dance soon, she checked the clock on her phone and smiled slightly. 6:45, the Salvatore house would now be empty. She had found out a few days ago, that everyone was planning to be at the dance for 7.

After a ten minute walk she found herself out the Salvatore's place, she took a stealthy step forward just in case anyone was still in the house, her eyes darting left and right. The last thing she needed was to get into a shouting match with Damon, she rolled her eyes at the thought of the older Salvatore. She didn't know what it was but something about him just rubbed her the wrong way.

Finally after a painfully slow walk towards the house, she found herself outside the front door. She placed her ear to the door and listened closely for any signs of movement, but sighed in relief when she found nothing.

Firmly she pushed on the door, and smiled happily when it swung open. Bless Vampires and their arrogance. She stepped into the house cautiously, crouched slightly ready to spring into action if needed. She crept though the living room and headed straight towards where she knew the cellar to be.

She stopped at the steps leading down to the cellar, she glanced over her shoulder and sighed. Was she doing the right thing? Yes of course she was, they needed his help.

She continued down the stairs and stopped in front of a heavy door, she stepped up on her tip toes and grabbed the bars with her hands pulling herself up higher, so her toes barely touched the ground. She poked her head up to look into the room.

Her eyes scanned the room before they landed on a grey skinned Elijah with a dagger in his chest, she jumped down from the door and looked around it hoping to find a key, but had no luck. Her mind thought to the front door, could they really be that cocky? she thought to herself. At that she tried the door and to her amazment found it opened with little force.

Selina stood in the door way looking at the 'dead' original before her, she slowly walked forward and knelt down beside him, her hand twitching by her side. Taking a deep breath she firmly wrapped her hand around the handle of the dagger, and before she could talk herself out of it she swiftly pulled the dagger from Elijah's chest.

Cradling the dagger to her chest she shuffled across the floor, and sat as far away as she could from Elijah. Half an hour later selina saw movement from the corner of her eye, she turned towards the vampire and saw his fingers twitching. Slowly she crawled across the floor leaving the dagger behind.

She looked at her phone quickly, 8'o'clock she had no idea when everyone would be back and she didn't fancy having to explain herself tonight. She needed him to wake up, and she needed him to wake up now. She looked over him and sighed seeing his skin had returned to its natural colour, she leaned in a little closer, so she was pretty much leaning over him looking at his face. She had to admit he was a handsome man.

A noise caught her attention, and her head span towards the door so quickly she was sure she'd given herself whiplash. She stayed silent for a few moments just listening. When she heard nothing else, she put it down to her nerves being on edge and relaxed slightly turning back to look down at Elijah.

She jumped back, barely muffling a scream when she found herself looking into a pair of dark brown eyes.

Elijah was finally awake.
