Sorry it took me so long to update but when life gives you lemons, no pun intended, and no there's no lemon, yet anyways.

Chapter 10

Elena gasped and shot up in a sitting position as she tried to figure out what happened to her, why her neck felt like it was broken and put back together, why she could hear no one in the house, why she didn't see Stefan when he called, why Elijah was sitting on the floor in a corner starring at her.

Wait

Elijah was sitting in a corner starring at her. He probably knew what happened to her.

"What happened, why my neck hurts so much, where's…"

"I think I can safely guess that Caroline snapped your neck and my dear sister snapped mines as the lead us down here to force us to speak to one another. I must say it's rather childish of them but effective" Elijah mused, suddenly seeing the irony in it.

"Well, I'm going to go to get some coffee, you want any?" Elena asked, as she got up and headed towards the exit of the living room only hit an invisible wall.

"Bonnie spelled the room, we can't leave this room" Elijah informed her and sighed in the annoyance as he buried his head in his hands.

Meanwhile…

Caroline, Klaus, Kol and Bonnie found a clear spot behind the house to relax for the day.

Caroline and Klaus strolled along the beach, in complete silence.

"I hope they talk it out, the tension in that house was tiring and annoying" Caroline mused, she really wanted them to just kiss and make up but knowing Elena, she'll make everything seem like physics.

"Knowing my brother, there's going to be a lot of denial, fear and then he'll surrender" Klaus mused, he knew his brother well and when it comes down to women, he would deny his feelings, then he'll feel guilty for feeling for her in the first place and he'll surrender to those feelings whether the girl likes it or not.

"I think he's a little too serious for my taste, but he's a good brother" Caroline knew he loved his brothers and sister even after everything Klaus did.

"Enough about our siblings and friends, I want to talk about you" Klaus smiled at her.

"There's nothing to talk about" Caroline replied, nonchalantly.

"Ah but there is, like did you enjoy yourself on our date?" he had to know, he was sure of it but he still wanted to know.

Caroline hesitated a bit before honestly replying.

"Yes I did"

Klaus smiled at her honesty.

Caroline couldn't really think about Klaus at the moment, not when her friend probably hates her for what she did but it was for her own good. What Kol did was wrong but Elijah had every right to know that he was unconsciously making her uncomfortable, although it's not entirely his fault because she has feelings for him but she won't admit it. She probably thinks that Elijah doesn't feel that way about her. Caroline thought about that too but she knew that Elijah had feelings for her, he didn't come out of his room either, he would have shrugged it off as almost nothing if he didn't feel anything for her, she knew that, but not owning up to his emotions, hiding in his room like something Kol would do, it wasn't like him, but then again, she doesn't really know Elijah like his brothers do.

Klaus wanted to talk about her, not his brother and intimacy issues or her friend's urges, he wanted to know her hopes, her dreams but she won't talk to him, he really respected the loyalty she had for her friends and family but he had her to himself yet she was with her mind and not him. He felt a little sad by this. A question then popped into his mind, it was something he wanted to ask her since after the date but couldn't muster the courage to ask, not in the house anyways, his siblings would judge him.

"Do you still think of me as a monster?" he didn't mean to sound terrified and scared but it came out like that and he became instantly more scared when her head snapped at him.

Did she still think of him as a monster? No she thought. She saw him as a man who kills and tortures for his own pleasure; she saw hate, sadness, pain, fear of rejection in him. Whenever she saw his art, she saw sadness covering all the beauty behind it. Sometimes she wonders if that's who he is, Sad on the outside and beautiful on the inside. The way he told her about great cities and genuine beauty was beautiful. She wanted to see the world in his eyes, but how does someone do that. Does she see him as a monster? No. Not anymore. Does she see him as a sad man who fears rejection so much that he will do anything to make sure that his own siblings does not leave him? Yes, very much.

"No, I don't see you as a monster Klaus" Caroline replied honestly.

Meanwhile…

Kol and Bonnie sat on the beach in complete silence. Bonnie didn't want to mention what Caroline had said but it was nagging her that she was being so strict with him.

"Kol" she sighed. She wanted to get it out of the way so that her mind can focus on something else.

"Yes?" he perked up and sat up, and looked intensely at Bonnie, deep into her beautiful green eyes.

Bonnie smiled at his perky attitude before continuing.

"I want to talk about what Caroline said" She said nonchalantly.

His face fell with sadness and the feeling of rejection.

"I don't hate vampires, but I'm not a big fan of them either. Because of vampires, my grandmother died, I got access to dark magic and my mother was turned, but because of them, I found out how strong I am, I found out that I have a cousin who has magic as well, she helped me control this dark magic, I found out my heritage, straight back to the witch Ayana, I can stand up for myself and not rely on protection; I am strong because of vampires but I also lost loved ones because of them, so I'm not really sure how I feel about your kind" Bonnie explained to him hesitantly.

She looked at him but he was still looking down, feeling like he was being rejected.

Bonnie didn't know what to say to him. She liked him that much, she can reveal to herself but she didn't know if she could trust him, trust him not to harm anyone, feed off humans.

She liked him regardless of what he is.

She liked his smile, his sincerity when he spoke to her, his laughter. She liked it all.

She sat up on her knees and crawled closer to him. She lifted his head up and rests her lips against his.

His lips were so soft and delicate, she melted against him immediately.

Kol took a while to realize what was happening before he answered her kiss.

The tingling feeling she got on her lips, the giant wave of energy flowing through her was exhilarating and so new to her, and she grabbed on to his neck and positioned herself closer to him. Kol wrapped his arms around her waist, pressing her closer to him.

Bonnie released his lips, breathing heavily against his lips. His lips trembled at her hot breath.

"I know that I do like you Kol, whether you're a vampire or not" Bonnie breathed, and then smiled at him as she snaked her fingers through his soft dark brown hair.

Meanwhile…

"Elena sat on the couch, clutching one of the pillows as she tries not to breathe altogether. His scent is so strong that she tries not to breathe but when she has to breathe, the scent it hits her harder and harder each time.

Elijah sat in the corner of the room trying so hard to ignore her presence, her harsh breathing, and her small growls as she tries to control herself. He needs to distract himself, he needs to distract her, but unfortunately it means that they have to talk.

"How long?" he asks, as he raised his head from his hands to look at her.

"How long what?" she growls slightly.

She must be trying to control it again.

"How long have you had feelings for me?"

Elena's features changed back to normal and she slowly turns around to meet with his face.

"After the ball" she simply replied. "Everyone questioned me when I felt guilty for not telling you what Esther was up to I questioned myself, then I came to the conclusion that I had feelings for you" she explained further. "What about you?"

Elijah smirked. He remembered the exact moment when he grew feelings for her, it was an odd situation.

"When you pulled the dagger out of me" he chuckled lightly at the memory.

Elena smirked.

"I should not pry into your personal matters, I am a little curious as to what happened between you and the Salvatore's"" Elijah stated with amusement.

Elena laughed lightly, she didn't mean to but the thought of talking about them to Elijah was a little amusing but not impossible. She loved them both, but she was not in love with either of them anymore.

"Damon's blood turned me, after a few days of being turned I couldn't hold down blood, whether from animals, blood bags, even from vampires, from humans only, Damon said that I'll want the blood straight from the vein and that was the only kind of blood that I could keep down. Stefan thought that something was wrong with me, like I was some toy that got broken, because I always listened to Damon, did what Damon told me to do. He decided that we should break up because she figured out that I had feelings for Damon. Then it was later discovered that I was sired to Damon, that's why I did everything he told me to do, so he did something selfless for the first time in his life and set me free, allowed me to drink any kind of blood I choose and told me to go away from him so I went to Caroline. I lived with her for 4 years, single of course" Elena explained coolly, oddly she felt like she could tell Elijah anything and he would not judge her

Elijah just looked at her with a poker face. She hated when she couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"Forgive me but I'm still consuming the information, you've had a stressful five years" he realized with a small smile on her face.

"Yes, but I feel at peace here, oddly in the same house with Klaus of all people, I wish I could live the way you guys live, in peace with one another, unfortunately almost all of my family is dead"

"You have my deepest condolences" Elijah said sadly.

Elena noticed that it was getting dark, which means that they would be returning soon.

"You could have informed me of these feelings when you saw me at the hotel why didn't you?" Elena was a little curious as to why he didn't say anything to begin with; he didn't strike her as the shy type.

"I assumed that you were still with one of the Salvatore brothers" he simply replied and shrugged his shoulders.

"You assumed wrong" Elena countered and hugged the pillow tighter as she forced herself not to smile at him.

Meanwhile…

"We should head back" Caroline sighed, she hated walking in an awkward silence.

"Very well then" he huffed and turned around and walked back.

Caroline followed and walked side by side with him.

Suddenly as the sky turn into a deep blue color, dark grey clouds start to form at a unnatural rate, surrounding the sky, covering any light the sky gave off as the thunder rolls and lightning strikes become loud and frightening.

"What the hell is going on?" Caroline yelled over the sudden heavy gust of wind that came.

"Let's get back to Kol and Bonnie" Klaus yelled as he grabbed her hand and pulled her into a flash speed back to where Kol and Bonnie where.

He stopped half way to see Kol and Bonnie sitting across from one another as their hands is joined and their eyes are closed.

"Your friend has created a storm" Klaus yelled over the loud thunder rolls.

Caroline shook her head at his lame attempt of a joke and approached them and screamed to the top of her lungs which alarmed Bonnie to snap her eyes open.

Immediately everything quickly vanished and went back to normal

"What's wrong?" Bonnie asked as she got up and checked Caroline for any signs of injury.

Caroline pulled her hand away "I'm fine, I was trying to make you stop with the freak storm" she added.

"Oh" bonnie sighs and looks around.

"Should we head back inside?" Kol asked as he got up from the ground.

"Yea we should, I think I should end her suffering and tell her what to do when she has those urges" Caroline sighed in defeat and headed back into the house.

I hope you guys enjoyed it. Finally Kennett Kiss..You wouldnt believe what Caroline finds when she enters the house...
