A/N: guest thank you for the wonderful comments. I am glad that you are liking this story. We are almost to the end. One more chapter after this one. I hope you enjoy this chapter and don't hate me too much :). I know I am dragging on with this Klaus not knowing that the baby is his but he needs to fall in love with her first before finding out that tiny detail LOL.
Synopsis: Someone makes a life altering decision after a major life altering event in his life. Sabine makes another attempt on Hayley's life.
Klaus went to Elijah and ignoring Rebekah said to him "you stay with her, I am going to find out what is going on".
He went to his room and saw that Hayley was not there any more. He went to the walking closet and took out the Papa Tunde's blade and was leaving when he had a weird sensation. He stopped at the door and then darted to her room. One glance in her room told him that she was not there. He tried to sense her in the house but she was not there. He yelled "Elijah, she is gone".
In a minute Elijah entered Hayley's room and said "what do you mean she is gone?"
Klaus snapped at him "what do you want me to elaborate? gone or she?"
He brushed past him and ignoring Rebekah who was looking at his face now with a bit of concern on her face went outside and then he turned towards him again and said "Sabine?!"
Elijah shook his head saying "i don't see how she can bypass all of us".
Klaus laughed humorously and said "they are witches, Elijah. Bloody witches".
He suddenly remembered their conversation in his room a couple of minutes ago and remembered her expressions and he thought 'is it possible that she left on her own account?'
He said to Elijah "I am going to check in the bayou. You try to locate Sabine.. Celeste again".
Without waiting for his reply he left the compound.
Hayley was looking into the river flowing at the back of the hut thinking about what had happened between her and Klaus. Her vision was hazy because of the tears in her eyes which were threatening to fall at any moment. She suddenly felt a chill run through her and then someone grabbed her arm harshly and turned her towards them forcefully startling her.
As she turned around she looked into his anger blue eyes and then looked at his hand holding her arm and said "what are you doing here?"
Klaus pushed aside the relief that he had felt at seeing her and said in a chilled voice "more to the point when I told you that you cannot go alone then why have to come here?"
Hayley glared at him and said "you cannot control my life Klaus. You don't have any right".
Klaus said angrily "Hayley I am not in a mood. We have an enemy from our past and she will go to any length to take revenge from me and I don't want to see you getting hurt"
As the words were out he realized what he had said but there was no way of taking it back so he just tried to pull her towards the car but Hayley jerked his hand away and said "why don't you want to see me hurt? You and I are just acquaintances, you don't have to be so much concerned about me".
Klaus stared into his hazel brown angry eyes and then grabbed her from both her shoulders and yelled "fine, I care about you. I love you. Is that what you wanted to hear? Fine, I love you but we cannot happen Hayley".
Hayley who had been wanting to hear these words from his mouth for so long felt her heart break as she realized that it was not the way she had imagine him to say them. So she said to him almost as angry as he was "I don't even want to know the stupid reasons you have concocted in your head Klaus. Right now I want to be alone. I …."
He cut her off by shouting angrily "no you cannot be alone" and before Hayley could say anything he had whooshed her out of their and to her car. He almost pushed her in the passenger seat and went to the other side.
He looked at her and said "listen whatever issues you have with me right now I want you to put them aside and think about your child. Celeste wants to kill you because of either Elijah or me and I don't want to see you or this child die".
He stopped for a second as he saw the realization dawn on her. She looked down at her stomach but didn't say anything knowing that he was right.
He started the car and then said angrily "I don't understand where is the father of this child. Why is he not involved Hayley?"
She looked at him and was about to say that he is the father when she remembered him saying no when she had asked him about if he wanted to have kids. She said quietly "he is not interested".
She saw his jaw clench and felt warmth in her body for no apparent reason.
She took a deep breath and said "so what is the plan? How will we find Celeste?"
He looked at her still absorbing what he had told her. It was now starting to sink in that he had told her how he feels about her and that was very unnerving for him as he realized that the last time he had said it to someone, it was a hundred years ago. He shook his head while keeping his eyes on the road and said "Elijah is looking for her. She had been body jumping for almost two centuries so you can assume that she is expert in hiding herself".
She looked at him and then said "do you suppose that she will come after me if I become a bait…"
she couldn't finish her sentence as Klaus looked at her sharply and said "no".
She said "Elijah had not gotten any luck in locating her. We cannot live like this, looking over our shoulder for the rest of our lives. I think I can draw her out… listen" as she saw him trying to say something "I am not putting myself in danger. I can go with Rebekah. I know you don't trust her right now but she is your sister and she will not want to harm this baby".
Klaus said with eyes still on the road "Hayley I don't like it".
Hayley shook her head as she realized that he didn't even hear what she said because if he had he would have asked her 'why' but he didn't so she said after burying the disappointment in her heart "I don't care if you like it or not. I am doing it. Trust me for once. I can do it".
Klaus looked at her determined face and tried to calm his nervousness as he remember the brutality with which Celeste had killed Liz. He shook his head and refused to even contemplate the thought that the same can happen to Hayley too.
Hayley looked at his expressions and suddenly remembered how Liz had died and her heart ached for him. For some reason she knew he was thinking about her, may be it was because of how his knuckles on the steering wheel had turned white or perhaps it was the jaw clenching on his face.
The rest of the drive was quiet. As she started to calm down she felt her heart starting to feel lighter too as she realized that she knows how he feels about her. She thought to herself 'his way of expressing was not exactly desirable but he at least loves her'. That brought a smile to her lips and she was glad that Klaus was not looking at her to witness it.
When they reached home Rebekah and Elijah were standing in the courtyard. Elijah darted to her and said "Hayley what was the meaning of that?"
Klaus looked at Hayley suddenly feeling very conscious as he remembered what he had confessed to her in the bayou.
Hayley said "I am sorry Elijah if I upset you guys. I don't know what I was thinking. I promise it wouldn't happen again".
Elijah stared at her for a moment and then he looked at Klaus who was looking somewhat tense so he decided to step back thinking 'has she told him?'
After a couple of seconds Hayley said "Klaus and I have talked about it that the best way to draw out Sabine is to use a bait and what better bait then me".
She smiled at the end of sentence and looked at Klaus but he was looking concerned. Seeing him looking concerned for her warmed her. Knowing that he cares that much about her was making her heart race.
Elijah looked at Klaus and from his expressions he realized that he does not like the plan but for some reason not saying anything so said "I would love to hear how you managed to convince Niklaus on this plan Hayley"
Rebekah suddenly said "actually I think it is a good idea".
They all turned towards her who flushed and said "what?! I like it".
Klaus looked at Rebekah and was about to say something when Hayley said with a smile "good, so two out of four and as I am pregnant so the baby's vote counts in my favor that makes it three out of five".
Klaus looked at each of their faces and said with annoyance "You guys waste time in coming up with a plan while I am going to get my answers from Monique Devearux. She knows something and I will find out what does she know".
He looked at Elijah directly and said "you are responsible here" and then glancing one last time at Hayley he left.
Hayley looked at Rebekah and said "what are you thinking?"
Rebekah said "I was thinking may be we should move a bit farther from French Quarter. She will not suspect you leaving French Quarter. I am sure by now she knows that we know she was Mary-Ann and why she is after you. We have an advantage that she does not know that we know she is Celeste. By the way Elijah how did you find out she is Celeste".
Elijah rubbed the back of his neck and said "the note she left in the crypt. It was encrypted. There was a colorless writing at the back and I accidentally discovered it when I threw it in the fire".
Hayley smiled and said "clever witch. I have to give it to you Elijah. She is very smart if she managed to escape death for so many centuries".
She smiled at his expressions and said to Rebekah who was looking at her with annoyance "so where are you thinking of going?"
Rebekah said "plantation house".
They both looked at Elijah who was lost in thought and then he nodded and said "you two go and keep me in loop. I have an important business to attend to for this plan to execute successfully. If we are talking Celeste down then we need to make sure that she does not body jump next time and I have figured out how to stop her".
Hayley asked "how?"
Elijah said "burn her bones and lucky us that I know where she is buried".
Hayley said "okay then".
Elijah gave them one last look and left the compound.
She looked at Rebekah who was lost in the thought. She said "Rebekah!"
Rebekah said "okay lets go".
During the drive Hayley realized that Rebekah was awfully quiet so she asked her "what is going on?"
She shook her head.
Hayley looked around in the plantation house and said "so what do we do now? How do we let her know we are here".
Rebekah said "you don't have to do anything. She already knows you are here".
There was something about her tone that made Hayley turned around slowly. She saw her hardened expressions and said "Rebekah what is going on?"
Rebekah said "I am sorry Hayley, She has gotten Marcel and she will kill him if I don't help her".
Hayley said in shock "Rebekah!"
Rebekah said desperately "I love him Hayley. I cannot see him die".
Rebekah took one step back when Hayley said "Rebekah I am carrying your niece. you are putting her in danger too".
Rebekah stared into her eyes and said "she promised me that she will not hurt her".
Hayley said "are you out of your freaking mind. If she kills me, my daughter dies too. Your niece".
Rebekah said softly "she is not going to kill you Hayley".
Hayley stared at her and then it dawned on her "you have got to be kidding me! She is going to be using me for body jumping".
Rebekah said "I am sorry. She promised me that I can have Marcel and she will help us take the city back from Klaus and my niece will survive too".
Hayley took a step towards the door but Rebekah blocked her. Hayley raised her hand and before Rebekah could do anything it swung in the air and landed on her cheek with a loud smack. She hissed "I thought Klaus was overreacting but I get it now. Who wouldn't when he has a bitch of a sister like you".
Rebekah stared at her and with sinking heart she left. When Hayley tried to follow her she felt as if there was some invisible force blocking her. She stared at Rebekah walking out of the house through the open door and then to her shock she saw her collapse on the ground. She said "Rebekah!" but then her eyes widened as she saw Sabine walking in the house. She stepped back and took out her cell and said "stay away from me Celeste. Elijah and Klaus are on their way".
She was taken aback when Sabine started laughing and said "So you know who I am . I am impressed. And I have to give it to you, you lie so confidently. I am almost sad to kill you. I have a thing for babies".
Hayley said now feeling afraid "but Rebekah said that you will not kill me. you are using me for body jumping" taking one step back from her still clutching the phone in her hand.
Sabine said sadistically "why will I want your body? So that I can see Elijah drool over me. I am so over him. He is most hypocrite people I have ever seen. The nobel Elijah saying that he will die without me and look he is still walking around 200 years later and did he avenge my death, falling in love with that wolf girl".
Hayley looked down at her cell and hurriedly dialed Elijah's number but he was not picking up so she looked at Sabine who was smirking. She asked taking one step back from her "what have you done with Elijah?"
Sabine laughed and said "Elijah is indisposed right now and so is Klaus and so is Rebekah. Lets see who Elijah chooses to save. His siblings or the love of his life".
Hayley felt her heart stop beating and she took a step towards her and said angrily "if you heart anyone of them I am …"
But Sabine laughed and then flicked her finger. Hayley jumped back as the fire erupted in the living room. She saw in desperation as Sabine retreated closing the door behind. Hayley tried to pass by the fire but it was spreading very fast. Her mind went to Rebekah and Klaus and Elijah again and she took out her cell again and called Klaus but he was not picking up so she tried Elijah again and took a sigh of relief when he picked up the phone. Hayley said "Elijah, I am trapped in the plantation house. there is fire everywhere". She had hardly finished her sentence when she felt him standing next to her and scooping her up and carrying her outside the house. As soon as they reached out she said "Celeste took Rebekah and Klaus".
Elijah said "I know" and then he said to her "go home Hayley, I have to take care of this thing"
Hayley said "I want to help".
Elijah looked at her and said sternly "no Hayley. This is really bad situation and if you are with me it might slow me down so please go"
She stared at him and controlled the anger bubbling in her at his words when she saw stress on his face and nodded.
Elijah gave her one last look and whooshed out of there.
Hayley was pacing her room. It has been a whole day and they were not back yet. Her anger at how Rebekah had betrayed her was replace by worry for Klaus and Elijah. She She tried calling Elijah a couple of times but he was not attending the call. Hayley was pacing the room and thinking where were everyone when Elijah entered her room and said "I have to go take care of some business, can you look at Niklaus ? He is hurt and when he will get up he will need blood. There are blood bags in the freezer. I will get you some so that he can use".
Hayley asked him "what happened?"
Elijah said "I daggered him with Papa Tunde's blade".
Hayley asked "why?"
Elijah looked at her and said "he was about to kill Rebekah".
Hayley said "why? did he found out Rebekah's role in today's…"
When Elijah looked at her in confusion she shook her head and said "you were saying?"
Elijah said "come" and then headed towards Klaus's room while Elijah gave her cliff note version of how Marcel and Rebekah had called Mikael to New Orleans in 1919 to get the city rid of Niklaus.
Hayley stared at Elijah wondering 'what is wrong with Rebekah?' as they entered his room.
Elijah walked to Klaus when she asked him "what happened to Celeste?"
Elijah rolled his sleeves up and said "she has been taken care of. I made sure she couldn't body jump this time".
He put his hand on Klaus's chest and said to her "you might want to look somewhere else".
Hayley asked him "why…" but then she yelled "what are you doing?" as Elijah dived his hand into Klaus's chest and took out the dagger.
He looked at Hayley after wiping his hand and said "I am in the study for a minute before I take care of that other business".
As he stepped back after rolling his sleeve down Klaus said in whisper filled with agony "Elijah" and motioned him to come hear him. When Elijah neared him he said "you will pay for this".
Elijah looked at the agony on his face with pursed lips and left whereas Klaus lost consciousness.
After he left Hayley walked to his bed and sat next to him. His eyes were closed and his breathing was shallow. She stared at his stressed out face and then got up and walked over to the fire place and then turned around and looked at him wondering about what Rebekah did. Her heart ached for him so bad as she thought about all she had found about him since yesterday and now this new betrayal by Rebekah. She walked to him again and after looking at him ideally she ran her fingers through his hair gingerly. She stood there for a minute and then went to the study to get a book for herself. She took out the book and took it to his room and settled down. As she opened something fell on her lap. She picked it up and realized that it was a picture. She stared at it and then looked at Klaus who was still unconscious. She got up and left the room.
Elijah went to his study. Elijah took out an old big and started flipping through the pages and then stopped as his gaze fell on one picture. He leaned in and said "so you are back too Genevieve".
He looked up as she walked in his study angrily and threw something at his desk. He picked it up and a sad smiled appeared on his face as he saw his brother smiling while looking down at Elizabeth.
He looked up and saw anger and surprise on her face. She asked him "who is she?"
Elijah said "where did you find it?"
Hayley said sternly "that is not your concern Elijah, who is she?"
Elijah said "this is Elizabeth Labanoir".
Hayley said "what?! why does she look like me? Was she my relative or some sort of doppelgänger?".
Elijah said "Yes she was your distinct relative. A great great great aunt or something. And no you are not doppelgänger. Yes you do look similar but you are exactly same. Doppelgänger have to be exactly same like Elena and Katherine. If you look carefully you will see that your feature are also different from Liz but I must admit that there is something about you that … Liz".
Hayley shook her head and said in a teary voice "No Elijah, I can see the resemblance and I know that every time he looks at me he sees her and whatever he feels for me is basically her".
Elijah walked to her and hugged her and said "no Hayley. He knows you are not Liz and knowing that he is developing those feeling for you. Listen" he separated her from him and then Elijah took a deep breath and said "you are carrying his child Hayley. You and Niklaus have something going on. Don't let that past destroy it. You can help him. You can give him something that will want him to live again".
Hayley was quiet for a few seconds and then she looked at Elijah. She didnt know her eyes were swimming with tears until she realized that her vision had gotten blurry. She wiped her eyes before the tears could fall down and said "so that is why you guys took interest in my life. That is why Klaus hates me".
Elijah said "no Hayley, that is not it".
Hayley raised her hand to stop him from talking and said "no, I don't want to hear used me. You lied to me. You wanted your brother to start a new life, find happiness and you used me to get that".
Elijah said desperately "Hayley no, I just wanted you and him to be happy".
Hayley yelled "how dare you Elijah? How can you dictate our lives and to think that I look like the woman whom he loved and lost so cruelly".
Elijah said in exasperation "listen I have to go and deal with Rebekah and Marcel and this new witch Genevieve. She was supposed to be dead but now is back. There is something big going on here. Can you please forget about all of this right now and take care of him. He is really weak and when he will get up, he will want to go after Rebekah. You have to make sure that he does not go. Can you do that for me?"
She was still reeling with emotions but he nodded.
After Elijah went Hayley went back to his room with heavy heart. She sat on the sofa seat looking at Liz and Klaus's picture. They looked so happy in that picture. Her heart ached for him. She suddenly looked up and saw that he was getting out of bed. She darted to him and supported him as his knees buckled.
He said "where is Rebekah?"
Hayley said "Klaus she is…" she pushed him back on the bed and said "you need blood. Let me get you some blood".
She turned around to get the blood when he saw the picture that had fallen from her lap as she had gotten up to help him. He bend down and picked it up and was looking at the picture when she turned around. She said with a smile that didn't reach her eyes "I cannot even say without sounding obnoxious person that she is very pretty".
when he didn't say anything she said "I am sorry about what happened to her"
Klaus stared at the picture and said "how long have you known?"
Hayley said "a couple of days ago".
Klaus looked at Hayley in shock and then stood up slowly and ran his fingers through his hair and said "you knew! You knew about her and you played me. That was pity kiss you gave me. That declaration of love Hayley?! You and Elijah both have played me".
Hayley stepped towards him and said "Klaus listen".
Klaus said as in trance "both of you played with my emotions. Nothing was real".
Hayley said "Klaus…" but couldn't finish her sentence.
He said in a firm voice "where is Rebekah, Hayley?"
Hayley shook her head with tears in her eyes. He gave her one last look and before she could say anything he grabbed the blood bag from her hand and sucked on it and then whooshed to the other room. Hayley heard a loud crash. She had a minute to think and then she darted to him and held his arm and turned him towards her and said "Klaus i want to tell you something about the baby …" but he gave her one steely look and whooshed out before she could do something.
She didn't realize that she was crying but then she suddenly realized that he had gone after Rebekah. She took out her cell and called Elijah.
Elijah put the cell down and then picked it up again as it rang again. He said to Rebekah "where are you?"
His heart skipped a beat when he heard Rebekah panicked voice "I am in the cemetery. I cannot leave. Some sort of boundary spell and he has the stake Elijah".
After listening to the other side he said "I am coming over, don't go anywhere".
When Elijah reach the cemetery after getting Hayley's call he saw him standing at a distance from Rebekah with the white oak stake in his hand. Rebekah looked at him and said "how did you get in? I thought there was some boundary spell".
He said to Rebekah "I could enter but perhaps will not be able to leave unless that spell is broken. I thought I told you to leave".
When she didn't say anything he said to her "go".
Rebekah didn't need to be told twice.
Elijah looked at Klaus and said "No Niklaus, you cannot hurt her. She is our sister".
Klaus laughed humorously and said "our sister" and then roared "Our sister who tried to get us killed".
Elijah said "not kill…"
but Klaus cut him off by yelling "what do you suppose she wanted Mikael to do to me? Hug me? or let me walk away unharmed on these two feet?"
He was quiet just for a second and then he said "you two took away the most prized possessions I had. She took away this city from me and you… " he couldn't finish the sentence in anguish.
Elijah was quiet for a second and then he said "I thought you never blamed me for Elizabeth".
Klaus whooshed to him and said while standing inches from him "not Elizabeth Elijah, Not Elizabeth".
He saw confusion on Elijah's face and then realization.
Elijah suddenly realized what he was saying. He said "brother…"
But Klaus shook his head with tears streaming down his face and said "I don't love her. you can have her. You love her. Both of you played me. You deserve each other" and then before Elijah could come out of shock he yelled in anguish and had jabbed the dagger in Elijah's heart and stepped back from him and stared at Elijah's painful expressions and whooshed to where he thought Rebekah was.
He couldn't believe it when Rebekah said "may be I did".
He yelled and jabbed her in the stomach with the white oak stake but then held her falling body in his hand. He put her gently on the ground and sat on the ground looking at her. He sat there looking at her thinking of what he had lost at that moment, at all the moments before this one. Marcel, Liz, Rebekah and now Hayley. He felt as if his heart will explode with anger and sadness but it didnt to his disappointment. He was feeling as if nothing was in his control anymore and whatever he will do, he cannot get that control. He cursed his immortality and then after what looked like eternity, he got up and took out the stake from her and went over where Elijah was lying on the ground and pushed his hand in his chest and took the blade out too.
He walked back to where Rebekah was lying and saw that she was getting up. He said to her "Elijah will be fine in a couple of hours".
She said to him "Nik, I am sorry. I know you think I am a horrible sister. I don't have anything else to say other than that it was desperate act to get away from you".
When he didnt say anything she looked at him and saw him staring into the empty space. She said "what is down is done. I cannot undo it".
Klaus said "what is done is never done. It stays with you reminding you of what we are, a bastard brother, a sister who betrayed him. perhaps it is time to write a new story"
THey both stared into the empty space when the door of the cemetery swung open telling them that the spell is broken. She looked at him and said apprehensively "the spell is broken, what are you going to do?"
Klaus stared at her for a moment and then asked her "what do you want Rebekah?"
Rebekah said "what I always wanted Nik. A family, a home".
Klaus said "well you can have that. You wanted this city me so I am giving it to you. You can have it. You and Elijah can have this city".
Rebekah took a step towards him and said as tears streaked down on her cheek "Nik…"
Klaus smiled but Rebekah noticed that it didn't reach his eyes and said "Rebekah I have forgiven you. I have not forgotten it but have forgiven you. What you did will always remain within me reminding me of who I am, why you betrayed me and may be that will help me live my life. With time I might forget it. I have an eternity to forget it. I am sure I will forget it".
He then hugged her and kissed her on her cheek, turned around and vanished into the night.
Rebekah stared at the spot where he was standing a couple of seconds ago in shock and then she turned around and helped Elijah up with heavy heart. She helped him in the car and took him to the compound.
She took him to his room and laid him down and said "Hayley, I need some blood bags".
Hayley was in her room thinking about Klaus and how she can convince him that she truly loves him when she heard Rebekah's yell. Hearing her voice made anger shoot in her but she also got the urgency in her voice so she ran to get them and went to Elijah's room. After Elijah had had a few bags he sat up and then got out of the bed and walked out of the room. He stopped as he saw courtyard filled with vampires and Marcel standing in the middle. Marcel said "I am here to take what is rightfully mine".
Elijah ignored him and looked at Rebekah and asked her "where is Niklaus?"
Rebekah looked at him and then at Marcel who was standing there looking at her. She said in a whisper "he is gone".
Elijah took a step towards her and asked her "what?!"
Rebekah said with tears falling from her eyes "he left Elijah. He said he gave me the city back. The city and the man for which I betrayed him".
Elijah felt as if all energy drained out of him. He turned around and looked at Marcel and said "you are banned from this city Marcellus. Take your minions with you and never return to this city ever and if I see any one of your minion in the city then you will be sorry".
When no one moved Elijah roared "leave" and then started towards the his room.
He reached his room and looked around in desperation and then his eyes went to something on the side table. He walked to it and picked it up and started reading it.
Elijah, I am leaving this city. I didnt want to leave without saying my farewell but I don't want to see you and Hayley right now. This city has given me nothing but grief. It has taken everything that it gave me. It gave me Marcel and it took it back. It gave me Elizabeth and took it back and now… I cannot lose any more. I have forgiven Rebekah. I have forgiven Marcel. I know you wanted my redemption. I don't think I can give you anything other than this. I have forgiven everyone. I wanted our home back and I got it. I wanted the city we built back and I took it back and now I am giving it to you. I know you love Hayley and you are not taking any steps because of me. Hayley is not Liz Elijah, I know that. I loved Liz, you can love and have Hayley. I am sure that you will protect her and you will give her child a home. I just want you to give her as much as love as I loved Elizabeth. I am leaving but not breaking my ties with you and Rebekah. We will meet again but not for a while. I am sure you and Rebekah can take care of each other. She can be handful. Spending 300 years with her was not easy but it was full of memories. Now I want you to experience it. I am happy for you and Hayley because I know no one can love her more than you, she deserves best and she got it.
I am leaving the white oak stake and the dagger for you. I am sure you can locate it in this house somewhere. A little payback for what you have done with me. You didn't think that I will let you off the hook that easily did you? I don't trust Rebekah right now but I might in future. Guard the stake with your life. Keep your friends close but your enemies closer".
KLaus Mikalesons.
Elijah stared at the letter and then spun around as he heard a sound.
Hayley walked to him and saw the letter in his hand. She took it from him and as her gaze slid on the words, her vision got blurry. She folded the letter and gave it back to him and said "good for him, may be he will find what he is looking for" and turned around and was walking out when Elijah said to her "Hayley!"
She turned around, gave him a sad smile and said "you know what? for a second I thought I will feel bad that he didnt know about the baby but I don't have any regret that he didnt even know she is his".
Elijah realized that her hand was on her stomach when she had said that and his heart broke for her. He walked to her and hugged her and said "he will come back Hayley".
Hayley pushed him away gently and said "I don't care if he comes back or not" and left his room.
