For those who had gotten confused with the bridge scene I am deeply sorry...I was writing on a small device and did not catch it, I have fixed the bridge scene.


"How could you let her out of your sight, You do realize she's a newly crazed emotional vampire right or are you stuck in wonderland believing and thinking she's still the human girl who's heart you stole?" Stefan spat glaring at the original he thought wasn't taking very great care of the girl he loved, if Elijah wasn't going to do it then he would step up and do it.

"Mind your tongue Stefan, Remember I can tear you to pieces in an instant...Your solution is to watch her like a guard dog and make sure she never does anything what she wants, No freedom at all...How is that living, How is that love? I call it prison a slow rotting death...I will not be the one who controls Elena like that, like you and Damon do. I believe in her and I feel she will make the right decisions all she needs is space and I respect that and you as her friend should as well..." he made sure to put the fact that Stefan's only a friend and nothing more just to drop him down from his pedestal. "and if she needs help I will be by her side." Elijah says.

Damon strolls into the kitchen where Stefan and Elijah argued.

"Elijah is right...she needs space she doesn't need us smothering and hovering over her when we aren't even in a relationship with her it's not right...I can't believe I'm going to say this but I feel Elijah is the best option for her..." Damon says.

"Best option?...Damon by leaving her alone out there he's going to kill her...The best option is if he leaves town and leave her in my care..." Stefan responded.

Elijah felt that maybe leaving her out alone was a horrible idea and the fact she might end up ending her immortal live occurred in his mind but pushed it away he did not want to think that way, she would come to her senses and come back to him, he prayed.

"I think I know where she is...you both don't you dare think of following me stay in case I'm wrong and she comes home." Elijah orders grabbing his dress coat leaving the door slamming behind him.

"Bossy..." Damon chimes always keeping that great positive attitude while Stefan sulked.


Elijah quickly made his way to wickery bridge, he stopped slowly his eyes lightly glossing seeing the woman he loved standing there alone looking out to the water.

Elena turned towards him her eyes filled with tears. "Why are you here, How did you find me?"

"I took a chance that you would be here...Elena, why do you even have to ask why I'm here don't you understand that I care about you." Elijah says he takes a step closer, Elena takes a step back.

"Elijah, leave me be...I can't do this, I can't live in a world where everyone is always watching me because poor Elena can't do anything, poor Elena is too weak...everyone is in danger because me, I drank my brothers blood and I didn't even care to pull away, could have killed him and in that moment all I cared about is getting every drop...I'm a monster, I can't control this...It would be best if I..." Elena says stopping herself, she couldn't say it.

"Elena, Don't you dare think that you deserve to die...You can fight this, I know it's rocky believe me I should know...Elena, You are strong and I know deep in my heart that you can make it through this."Elijah reassures.

"I'm not as strong as you, I'm not an original who's had all their life to process this!" Elena cries. "I know I agreed to do this but I can't...I can't...It's not right for me, I'm not right to be a vampire!" Elena shouts slipping off her daylight ring, a tear slides down her face she was about to throw it in the water when Elijah swiftly comes and grabs her wrist taking her ring he holds her close letting her melt into him.

"You have people who love you. I love you, your friends and your brother if you can't do it for me or your friends do it for Jeremy, you know that he's lost so much he can't lose you as well...Family stays together." Elijah whispers gently calming her. "I know you'll make it, I just know it."


Elijah continued to train with Elena away from everyone, in the forest everyday and each day she got better at her vampire speed, not much of running into trees as well as catching her meal. Each time Elena returned to him he felt Stefan in the back of his head telling him she would be better off if he left her in the hands of her friends. As Elijah though more and more about it and as they trained more he felt he might have been intimidating every time Elena failed she had this sad look on her face and now she was better and in his mind this was the last training session.

Elena zipped past in front of Elijah a huge smile on her bloody mouth. Elijah pulled out a tissue wiping her mouth of red stain.

"Thank you so much for teaching me...I honestly would be lost if I didn't have a badass original like you to show me the ropes." Elena says happily staring lovingly at him as he wiped her mouth, his touch sending hot shivers up her spine.

Elena couldn't help but press her lips roughly against his in a passionate kiss, she pulls away briefly never far away. "So is this the part where you stop playing my teacher for a few and be my boyfriend?"

Elijah looks at her in his heart was filled with sadness but he hid it so well. He leans in kissing her passionately pushing her against the tree Elena ran her fingers through his nicely cut dark brown hair kissing him back with just as much passion taking his bottom lip between her teeth lightly biting and 's hands roam down her body reaching the hem of her shirt touching her skin, she presses her body into him as she moves to remove his dress coat.

"Ew gross...Doesn't anyone ever use bedrooms anymore?" Rebekah questions standing in the middle of the forest with Damon by her side.

Elijah and Elena part to see the company they had.

"Rebekah I thought you would have left to New Orleans by now?" Elijah questions.

"Oh Elijah trying to get rid of me...I thought it was always and forever I feel hurt..." Rebekah says.

"I'm deeply sorry, Rebekah I never meant to hurt you...I assumed you would want to join brother Kol that's all." he replies.

"I heard Elena had become a vampire I wanted to see it for myself..." She answers. "I must say I'm surprised to see you made it past the few couple of days." Rebekah adds coming closer brushing a hand out towards Elena touching her hair, Elena flared and slapped her hand away.

"Don't fucking touch me...Don't think because I'm dating your brother that I've forgotten you tried to kill me." Elena says her hate for the blonde original stronger than before. "Damon how could you be hanging out with this crazy bitch...She's worse than Klaus." Elena adds.

"I'm getting over you." He answers. "And it just happens Rebekah here needs to get over Stefan so why not." Damon Adds.

"Jealous, Elena?" Rebekah says a smug smirk on her face.

Elena glares at her picking up at stick she throws it at her only for the original sister to catch it turning it around and stabbing Elena with it, Elena pulled it out letting it fall.

"Hurts doesn't it?" She says. "Elijah, the best wishes for you." Rebekah adds walking off.

Elijah silently watched her leave, Rebekah was the only one who knew what he was going to do and he knew that was the only reason why she backed off of Elena.

"Is all your family nuts?" Damon questions.

"I'm afraid so...but I still love them they're all I have, except Elena here." Elijah says pulling her close kissing the top of her head, she smiles.

"Are you ready to go home?" Elijah asks as it nears dark.

"I think we got enough training in so yes." Elena replies she takes the arm he lent out towards her wrapping her arm with his they take off together.


Elijah walks Elena to her door, she opens the door ready to go inside but see Elijah was reluctant she turns to him.

"Are you okay?" She asks. "I probably should have asked if you wanted to come in but I assumed you would since you've been basically living here."

"I know...Elena this is goodbye." Elijah says

Elena narrows her gaze. "Goodbye, Why Elijah?" Elena questions. "Everythings been going great...I mean today we were going to have sex in the forest for crying out loud...We're we going to do that and then you drop this bombshell on me about leaving you can't do that, Why now?"

"I'm sorry, Elena...I only wanted one more day with you and I wanted it to be filled with happiness...I wasn't thinking with you...I never think when I'm with you...Oh you make me weak..." Elijah says he knew this would be hard.

He steps up to her running a hand across her face. "I'm sorry but I need to say this...Elena, you've changed me made me a better man and made me learn to love again, I love you so much and you need to know how much this is hurting me."

"Don't do this" Elena begs. "Please..."

He looks into her eyes. "You will forget this...You will forget that we had ever loved all you will remember is that day we met and I wanted to take you away and the small meetings we had you were forced to work with me because I had agreed to protect your friends as long as you would do as I said." Elijah says compelling the young vampire, he looks longingly at her before turning and leaving her porch.
