Thanks, for reviewing everyone! So, I'm in the middle of my exams and this morning I had my English Lit exam, writing about Of Mice and Men and An Inspector Calls, both are great books, although I think Of Mice and Men is slightly boring whereas An Inspector Calls is quite mysterious and I want to know if there is a second one because I want to know what happens next! Anyway, here is the next chapter to my story, it's getting quite depressing between Damon and Alex, and I'm not completely sure what I have planned for them yet so. And I have an idea with what I want Alex and Klaus' relationship to be, I have one major plan but I can't seem to fit all the small little details along with it so bear with me. Please review and tell me what you think and about Damon and Alex, Klaus and Alex, Stefan and everyone else. Criticism is welcome but nothing rude please. So enjoy!

O COME, ALL YE FAITHFUL – SEASON 4 EPISODE 9

Everything seems to be going wrong, my life is caving around me, making me suffocate inside. Mine and Damon's relationship is shattered, I have no idea what to do. He slept with Elena. I can never forgive him for that. I love him. I do, I feel like I do, but I feel like I shouldn't. And Klaus? Mine and Klaus' relationship is confusing and doesn't make sense but he's been there for me. He always has and he always will, I know he loves me, and I'm not sure if I feel the same way. I know I did, but that was a long time ago, can I still feel something towards the immortal hybrid. I know we have some connection, always have; we're so alike it's kind of scary. But then so are Damon and I. I don't know what to do, I just want my friends beside me, someone with wisdom that I don't have. Me and Stefan have been closer than ever, we always have been best friends but it's like this whole thing with Elena have brought us closer.

And Elena? I don't even want to speak her name. This is all her fault, why couldn't she just stay human or die? I know this sounds incredibly harsh, but she hasn't done anything productive since she turned. I killed Connor for her, but mostly I did it for Jeremy, he's like a little brother to me too. But I hated what I had seen. And I have yet to meet my doppelganger; I don't understand how I have one? Why should I? Is there something above questioning me? I just don't know what to think anymore. I'm a hybrid that's lived for almost a thousand years and I have no idea why I am still even alive, there's nothing here for me anymore, but I have to look out for my friends. Stefan, Caroline, Bonnie, Matt and Tyler. Damon? I can't die, not yet. I know he still needs me but it's hard to forget and even harder to forgive. But I don't want him to switch off his humanity again. Well, I suppose I better go and see what Klaus is up to. I've been living here since the…You know what. Klaus has been good to me and there's nothing I can do to thank him for that but it must be hard for him too… I have to go.

I sighed to myself, shutting the leather bound book slowly. I still had no idea what to do, but I have to live my life, and carry on with another day. I could hear the meshing of paint on a canvas that must be Klaus. When I walked in Klaus' art room, I saw endless amounts of beautiful paintings that I wish I could've done. I'm not a huge painter, but I've always had a thing for it. I guess that's one of the reasons why I fell in love with him.

"Are you feeling any better love?" Klaus spoke up, carrying on putting brush to canvas.

"I could be better, but that's just how these things are right?" Klaus didn't answer me, knowing, I didn't exactley want an answer.

"So, what are we doing today?" I asked looking around the room.

Klaus smirked at me. "We?" He set his painbrush down and turned to me a smile on his face.

"What? Are we not aloud to do things anymore?" I slightly smiled back, I was just glad that he sort of managed to take my mind off Damon. I could still feel and think everything about him, probing in the back of my mind, but I don't want to feel that today. I want to have a Damon free day. Yeah, that's it. Today, no one is going to mention the D word. I'm not gonna see him. Think about him.

"Of course we are sweetheart, but today, you are going to hang around with Caroline and Bonnie, while I sort some buisness out." Klaus wiped his hands on a cloth on a table next to him.

I raised my eyebrows at him. "Buisness? What kind of buisness?" His blue eyes held persuasion and determination.

"Not yours" He replied. I opened my mouth to protest but Klaus beat me to it. "Alexandra, please, do this..for me? Just go and forget about everything for a day and leave the rest to me." I glanced up at him confused. I was stubborn, I wanted to say no, but a part of me was screaming to take his advice and just lay low and relax for a day, but another part of me was saying that he was up to something, but who was I to say no? After everything he's done for me recentley. I think I could put my stubborness aside. Just this once.

I nodded.

Klaus looked confused for a second. "What? That's it? No, no you're not doing this without me, or this isn't some kind of decapitating heads buisness?" I smiled slightly and nodded.

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. I'm gonna take your advice for once and lay low and just hang with my friends. So, do whatever it is you have to do, and I don't want to know about it okay?" Klaus nodded along with me. "Okay, well then, I will...catch up with you later."

I left the mansion i search of Bonnie and Caroline, they were probably at the grill, so that's the first place I searched.

I walked into the Mystic Grill and looked around to see if Bonnie or Caroline were here. Well they wern't. I tried calling them but neither of them picked up, so I called Stefan. There was something going on, and for some reason, I wasn't apart of it. Stefan picked up.

"Alex?" Stefan voice sounded guilty, I knew something was going on. I doubt he will tell me but what the hell.

"Stefan, what the hell is going on?" My voice shouted down the phone.

"What are you talking about? Nothings going on."

"Stefan Salvatore don't you dare lie to me"

"Look, Alex I'll talk to you later okay? I've gotta go" Stefan hung up the phone. I stared at the phone confused and angry. Stefan Salvatore just hung up the phone...on me. No one ever does that, well Damon not included. Oh my God, don't even think about him Alex. Phew, okay, so no one is here apart from Matt. Well may as well go and get drunk on my own.

I trudged over to the bar and jumped up on the stool. Matt smiled when he saw me and I smiled back. That's what I loved about Matt, he was always so nice and adorable.

"Hey Alex"

"Hey Matt"

"Can I get you anything? Do you want a bourbon?" Matt pointed behind him, while he was cleaning a glass.

"Um, no I think I will have a...Russian Vodka please" Matt looked taken aback.

"Whoa Russian huh? Planning to get smashed?" Matt laughed.

I sighed "Pretty much" Matt handed me two glasses of Russian Vodka and walked off to serve another person. After a while I began to get curious again, when Matt came walking over I wanted to see if he knew anything about where everyone was.

"Hey Matt?" Matt turned and looked at me questioningly. "Do you know where everyone is?"

"No, sorry Alex, I've been working all day." I nodded.

"It's okay...But um...Do you know what they're up to?"

Matt shrugged. "Sorry Alex"

"Don't worry about it Matty" Matt paused for a second before he began speaking.

"Wherever they are, they should be back for the Winter Wonderland thing going on" I smiled and thanked him and he got back to work.

I trudged through the woods making my way back to Klaus' mansion talking to myself.

"I can't believe I didn't see anyone there! Where the hell are they?" I stopped suddenly hearing something coming from beyond in the woods. I blurred there and froze at what I saw, before I knew it there was a sword coming towards my head, and I just managed to stop it with my arm.

"Klaus!" Klaus gazed at me, finally figuring out I wasn't there to hurt him and he shoved me to the side roughly. I lay there, leaning on the back of a tree, watching Klaus slaughter the rest of his hybrids.

Klaus slashed at a hybrids throat, blood ran down the hybrids neck and onto the ground.

Klaus turned around to the next hybrid and shoved his hand in their heart, he gripped it and pulled it out viciously and all I could do was watch. When Klaus had finished he was soaked in his hybrids blood. His face held nothing but betrayal. After all his work, killing Elena, turning Stefan into his ripper self. He killed his own hybrids. Klaus glanced at me with watery eyes, and held his hand out slowly. I looked up with a tear escaping my eye and put my hand in his. He dropped the sword suddenly and brought me into a hug. He clutched me tighter as if I was going to do the same to me. This wasn't about his love for me any more, or trying to break me and Damon up forever, but this was about me and him as friends. Forever friends. I could tell that if I were to do the same to him, it would break his heart as he held his hand around mine and pulled, and watched he life fade before my eyes. I wouldn't do that to him. Lately Klaus hasn't been much of a threat, but we were always cautious of him. But I couldn't do that. Not after what he has done for me.

Klaus let go of me and stared deep into my eyes. "Listen to me okay?" His voice was shaky and shattered. "Go straight to the mansion, I have something I need to do" I looked into his beautiful eyes.

"Klaus-" I began to protest.

"Please, Alexandra, just go, and run! I do not want anything happening to you. Am I clear?" I nodded. I backed away from him slowly. I ran and looked back. Klaus narrowed his gaze.

"Go now!" I used my vampire speed to get out of there quickly and ran into the mansion slamming the door behind me. I slid down to the ground, my mind running back and fourth between watching Klaus slaughter all his hybrids, and seeing his torn face, staring at me. Thinking I was going to do the same. That was one thing I couldn't get out of my head.

I hope the others were okay.

Thank you so much for reading everyone! I know it's not much but I felt like I couldn't really put Alex into much in this episode, and there was a lot of Klalex and there will be more Dalex just wait I'm still figuring out how Alex is going to react to seeing Damon again. Please review it would mean so much!
