I know I must make a choose. My life and heart has been split into two. I don't know what to do. With it my heart has been split for two women. My true love or the love I have fallen for. I don't want to hurt either. But I must make a choose.
I have been thinking all of this over since I got my memories back of my family and Hayley. The promise we made for each other. Always and Forever. But now it's different. I have two different lives I have lived. I don't know which one to be. My first life with my family and Hayley. Or the second one with Antoinette.
I went to my bother's study. I want to let someone know that I am going out. So, if someone is looking for me then Klaus can let them know. I knocked on his door and waited for him to let me know to enter.
"Enter." Klaus said.
I walked into the room. Klaus was standing there working on something. It looks like the city. But I can't tell until it is done. He looked over at me when I entered the room.
"Elijah, what do you need?" He asked me.
"I just wanted to let someone know I was heading out to think. If anyone is looking for me please tell them I will be at the place where everything began. Trust me the people who will be looking for me will know where that is." I told him.
"I think one of them will know. But are you sure about the second one. Have you told her about it? Or anything about your life before her?" Klaus asked me.
"Yes, I have." I told him.
"Very well." Klaus said.
I then went to think. There was only one place I could think the best. I don't know why. But this place always helps me the most.
*Hayley's POV*
I just wanted to get away from everyone for a bit. I am happy to have the family back together as one. But I sometimes miss the quietness. So, I went to hide in the one place I can get alone time. But if this one person is in there I am going to leave. I don't want to be around him right now. It hurts seeing him.
I went to Elijah's study. It was my favorite place to be. Even when they were all gone. I still felt close to him when I was in here. I knocked on the door to see if he was in there. When there was no response I opened the door and looked in. No one was here. He must be somewhere out with Antoinette.
I went right over to the couch and relaxed there. I picked up the book I was reading. I just wanted to go somewhere else right now. A book is the perfect away to do that without leaving your home. I was all into my book until I heard the door open. I thought it was Elijah. I was going to leave. But when I looked up I saw Antoinette.
"Oh, I thought Elijah was in here. I can't find him anywhere." She said told.
"Nope. Just me and these fictional characters." I told her.
She just stood there looking at me. I thought that was a little bit funny. Not even a small smile. I know the women hates me and all. But just a smile won't hurt. I then sighed and asked,
"Did you ask Klaus or Rebekah? One of them might know where he is at."
"No. Thanks." She said.
She then walked out of the room. I tried to go back to my book but couldn't. I was to distract on wondering where Elijah was. He usually just hangs around the compound. Not letting his fiancé on where he was going. I then got up and went to find Klaus. If anyone he would know where he was.
"Klaus." I said when I saw him.
"Yes, Hayley?" He asked me.
"I was wondering. Where is Elijah? Antoinette was looking for him." I asked him.
"Well, she did come and asked me. I am going to tell you the same thing I told her. He is at the place where it all began." He told me.
I looked at him weird. Klaus then gave me a smile and walked away. I stood there and thought it all over. Then it hit me. I know where he is at. But does Antoinette? I then went to find Antoinette to let her know where he was. That was just the right thing to do.
*Elijah's POV*
I have been thinking everything over for a while now. But I hoped my answer would come soon. Looks like I was wrong. Neither of them has come. I was just about to leave when I heard someone coming. I looked over to see Hayley entering.
"Hello my dear." I said.
"Where it all began. Really Elijah? You do your best thinking here." She said to me.
"Yes. I know spuriously I do." I told her.
"I did tell Antoinette where you were. But I think she didn't care to listen to me." She told me.
I am not surprised Hayley tried to do the right thing most for someone she isn't fond of. But looks like my answers have finally came. I think I know what I am doing. My heart and head has finally come as one. But I will wait and see when I see Antoinette.
"Thank you for that. I bet she will find me sooner or later." I told her.
"Okay. So, you are okay? Klaus told me you had to think a few things over." She asked me consured.
"Yes, I am better. I have figured a lot out." I told her truthfully.
"Okay. I will let you be to think some more. I will see you when you get home." She said.
"Yes. I will see you when I get home." I told her.
I then went and waited for Antoinette to find me. It won't be any longer now. A few more minutes has passed. Then I heard foot steps coming. I looked up to see Antoinette entering. She was surprised to find me here.
"Elijah, there you are. I have been looking for you everywhere." She told me.
"Yes. I heard." I said.
"Why were you hiding here?" She asked me.
"I was not really hiding. But I needed to think a few things over. This place helps me think better." I told her truthfully.
"Really? Why?" She asked me confused.
I sighed. I thought her what this place meant to me. When we first got here I took her around and told her about this city and what it meant to me. Memories I had here. How everything began. So, she knows. But looks like she just doesn't care to remember.
"I told you that this place was where it all began. What it meant to me." I told her.
"Yes. Where you first meet her." She said. I think I hinted a bit of hatred in her voice.
I have finally had made my decision up. I looked over to Antoinette's hand and lead her to the stone bench. We sat there, and I then said,
"We need to talk. I have been thinking everything over on what I wanted to do with my life. I felt like I was split into two. I know I needed to make a choose on what I wanted to do. For you and my family. But also, for me."
"What have you decided? Because I do think it is time to go home." She told me.
I looked at her. I know this is the right choose. I took in a breath and let it out. Whatever I decided it is what best for me.
*Hayley's POV*
I know Elijah was thinking about what he was going to do with his life. He didn't know if he wanted to stay in New Orleans with his family. Or leave with Antoinette. Whatever he decides I am going to stand behind. Even if he decides to be with her. It is going to hurt me. But he did it for me when I got married to Jackson. So, it's my turn for him.
I went to hide away. I didn't want to talk to anyone right now. But I know I must. I have all of emotions bundle up. I need to let them out somehow. I then went to find Freya. She and I have become close ever since the curse. She has always been there for me.
"Hey Hayley. What's wrong?" She asked me when I came up to her.
"I need to talk to someone before I blow." I said.
"We don't want that. What's on your mind?" She asked me.
"I think Elijah has decided on what he wants to do. I am scared that he chooses her. It kills me knowing he is happy with her. And I can't be with him once again." I told her truthfully.
"I know Hayley. But here is the thing don't you want him to be happy. Even if it is with her." She said.
"Yes. But it still does hurt. I just miss the time we were together." I told her.
"Then maybe you should tell him yourself." She said. She then made me turn around. Stand there in the door away was Elijah. Freya then left.
"I never know you felt that way." He told me.
"I didn't want you to. You are happy with her. I didn't want to ruin that for you. Just like you did it for me with Jackson. So, I wanted to do it for you." I told him truthfully.
"Well, then I should tell you I have decided on what I am going to do." He told me.
He then came closer to me. I just stood there. I didn't want to move. I liked having him near. But I never saw was coming next. He then pulled me close and kissed me. When we pulled away I looked at him confused.
"I have chosen to stay. To be with you. I am happier here with you Hayley. I have chosen you. It was always you." He told me.
*Elijah's POV*
It was always got to be Hayley. She was my true love. My always love. She has my heart and always will. New Orleans is my home. I wanted to stay here with my family. I wanted to stay and make everything better. I know I messed up a lot when I didn't remember. But I feel like everything is going to get better.
