-Disclaimer- I don't own TVD or any of its characters! First of all, thank you for reading my story. I hope you still enjoy reading my story. I was wondering to maybe change once the P.O.V, what do you think?
*Last chapter*
The spell itself was quite long. It took over half an hour to be finished and the ending was quite painful. My head hurt like hell and I just wanted to go back home and sleep. "How are you feeling?" "Like hell… is that normal?" "Yes, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention…" 'Oh, nice to know! Ah… this witches! You can't live with them, but you can't live without them either.'
*End of last chapter*
Elena's P.O.V.
After Liz had finished I took a taxi back to Rome. Once there I went to a coffee shop and called Rebekah. After some minutes of waiting she arrived and we went shopping. More than once I noticed Rebekah giving me weird looks, because she was trying to find out, what Liz and I did. "You know you're not going to find out Rebekah, so stop."
We got back to the house in the late afternoon and we simply sat around the living room, not knowing what to do. Then I had an idea. "Let's go partying! It's way too long, since I was the last time!" "Yes! Absolutely!"
After we had dressed up and everything, we took a taxi to a very popular club. Once there we didn't even have to wait in the line, we simply could go inside. Before the music got too loud, we talked what we were going to do. We decided to just hang out together, but if somebody would have a thing, we could kind of do what we wanted.
Rebekah and I were already a bit drunk, when some guys came up to us. Of course I was drunker then Rebekah, since it was harder for her to get really drunk. One of the boys, the one with black hair, danced the rest of the entire night with me. During the dancing and drinking, I noticed that Rebekah and the other guy weren't anywhere near. If I was sober I probably would've stopped partying and would've gone back to the house, but since I was drunk, I continued partying.
*The next morning*
The next morning I woke up in a room I didn't know. I had a one of the worst hangovers ever and I cursed myself for drinking so much. Only after cursing for some minutes, I realized that I was quite in an undressed state and that was still an understatement! 'What the hell? What did I do yesterday?' I suddenly had an uneasy feeling and decided to quickly dress and go back to the house. Finding all my clothes was one problem, the second was, and I didn't really know where in Rome I was.
When I was dressed I exited the, quit big and luxurious, apartment and went on the street. After some minutes of walking around town, I found some American tourists and asked them for directions. Thanks to them, I then found my way back to the house quite easily.
*Back at the house*
When I came into the house, I heard people talking in the kitchen. There I found Rebekah and 'her' guy of yesterday evening. "Hey, you two. Don't let yourself get interrupt, I'll just take a bottle and go again." "Oh, hi Elena. Meet Josh, Josh meet my cousin Elena." "Hi, nice to meet you", he said in a broken English. "Hi! Have a nice day, cousin!", I said while quickly walked out of the kitchen.
Once in my room, I took a much needed shower and then sat on the bed trying to remember the events of yesterday evening. I tried really hard, but at first I couldn't come up with anything, then some bits and pieces came back.
*Flashback*
"Let's go to my place…"; "What's your name by the way?", I asked him. "Danny and yours?" "Elena..";
*End of Flashback*
'Oh, man.. I hope I didn't do anything stupid…' Two or three hours later, I heard the doorbell ring. I run down to get it and it was a taxi driver saying he was here to pick someone up. I didn't have time to replay, when I saw Rebekah and Josh coming around the corner. I excused myself and went to the living room.
"Did you have fun yesterday?", I heard Rebekah voice behind me. "Don't know.. I can't remember.. It's all a big blur." She took a seat next to me and I think started day dreaming. "How was your evening, Reb?" "It was … fun." "Fun? Come on, there's more to it…" " Yeah, there is.. but .. there's not going to be some more.
" You alright if we go back to London?" "Oh…. Sure. When do you want to go?" "Can we go tonight?" "So soon?", I nearly wanted to protest, but then Rebekah made some really good puppy eyes. "Okay… But only, because it's you.." "Great! Now go and pack!" "Yes, chief!", I joked.
About two hours later, we were ready. Before we could leave we had to call the pilot and I wanted to call Gloria to inform her of our arrival. "Hello?" "Elijah? Is it you?" "Elena?" "Hi! I've got a quick question.. is Gloria here?" "Hello! Yes, I'll get her. Is Rebekah with you?" "Yes, as always."
A minute later I had Gloria on the line. "Elena! So good to hear from you! Where are you?" "Gloria! I'm in Rome! We're coming back to London, we should be here in about 3 and a half hour." "You're coming back? That's so great! I'll prepare a cake, no we'll have a party and we'll.." 'I really have to interrupt her or she'll go and invite the queen…' "Gloria! Calm down… It's okay, you don't have to do anything! I'm really sorry, I'd like to continue talking with you, but I really need to leave. So see you!" "Bye! Have a nice flight, girls."
*At the airport in London*
We were just getting out of the plane, when we were greeted by Kol. "Kol! Please tell me you aren't our driver?", Rebekah said with fake horror in her voice. "Oh, sister. Of course I am! You didn't think I'd let someone else drive my precious sister and her best friend?", he said in a mocking voice. It was really nice and fun to see them interacting this way. It made me think about the way, I used to tease Jer.
During the drive they both continued teasing each other. "So, Elena… I heard from Rebekah that you two went to a club?", he asked me. "Ah, yes… we did. Last night, we went." "Oh, what a miracle. Rebekah isn't often going to a club or to parties. Don't tell her, but she got quite boring, since she's spending time with Elijah." "Hey, 'her' is right next to you! And that's not true!", she tried to say in a hurt voice, but ended up laughing.
Not so much later we arrived at the house and were greeted by Gloria and a cake. We brought our stuff upstairs and then ate the cake in the kitchen. While I was having my third piece and talking with Elijah, we heard the front door open and some seconds later Klaus was standing in the doorway to the kitchen. 'Should I greet him?... No, I'll let him do the first step..' It was very quiet and awkward. Nobody knew what to say, Klaus seemed to be rooted in the doorway and couldn't stop looking from me to the floor and back again.
"Klaus, you want a piece of cake?", Gloria asked to break the silence. "..No, thank you. I'll take some tomorrow. Good night.", he quickly finished and didn't wait for us to answer him, before he went upstairs. "I'm not one to talk bad, but… THAT was soooo awkward!", Rebekah said once Klaus was upstairs. In this moment she really reminded me of Caroline and I had to laugh a bit. "What? Did I say something wrong?" "No, I just thought that you sounded like Caroline AND that what you said, was the understatement of the year!"
*Next morning*
After a long, peaceful sleep I got up showered, dressed and then went down to get breakfast. Unfortunately I wasn't the only one with the idea of having breakfast at this time, because Klaus was there too. I thought about turning around and go away, but I was sure that he already knew I was downstairs.
".. Good morning, .. Klaus." "Elena, ..good morning. Did you sleep well?", he was trying to make a conversation with me. I didn't really want to, but thought that it wouldn't hurt in my plan to be a bit civil. "Yes, thank you.", but of course I wasn't going to be all smileys and happy.
For the rest of the breakfast we stayed pretty much silent. Occasionally he would ask me about some casual things or for salt or something like this. When he finished he put his dishes in the dishwasher and sat back down. "Can we talk?" "We're already doing that, Klaus." "Yes, but I mean, about what happened."
"Alright, what do you want to say?", I sighted. " You need to know, that.. I really regret it, okay? You know I'm not good in apologizing , but… I was drunk and…" "I get it, you were drunk it wasn't your fault." "Yes and no. Yes, when we're drunk we do stuff we sometimes regret.."
'Oh, you're soo right! I wonder what exactly I did two days ago…' "But, … I just wanted you to know… that I'm really sorry and that… I'd like things to get back to normal." 'Normal? Sure… just erase my memory, then that will be maybe possible.' "Yeah, I'd like that too…. But let's just take it slow..", I tried my best to convince him. I was shocked when he seemed to believe me. ' There are only two possibilities. One, I'm getting better at lying or two, he's to smitten to get anything straight.'
*Two weeks later*
During the last weeks, the entire group did often things together. Klaus often tried to get me to go out with him or to simply talk. I was now, not on normal terms with him, but I could again talk with him. I didn't forgive him, not now anyway, but I tried my best. But during these two weeks, I wasn't really present. I was nervous and couldn't stand still. At the end of a day, Rebekah came into my room. "Speak. What's wrong with you?" "Nothing.." "E-L-E-N-A, I know something is wrong." "Okay, I think I'm sick… " "You mean, sick as in… nine month sickness?" "Could be…?" "Oh, my god.. You need to know, if it's true or not!" "Okay, I'm going to take an appointment.."
