Chapter 26

"Yes," Elijah answered without hesitation.

"Then be with her," Rebekah reiterated.

"What if-" he began until she shook her head.

"Don't second guess this! She makes you happy and you make her happy!" Rebekah told him sternly. "I see all of my family happy with who they choose and I don't want any of you to hold back so go in there and get your girl."

"I'm sorry I walked out," Elijah opened conversationally. "We were together and then you were gone and I'm still trying to figure us out."

"I don't blame you." She whispered. "I left. I hid to protect her...I wanted to tell you but I was afraid of your reaction to this. There were nightmares that you would leave me to raise her on my own or someone daggered you...I'd end up waking up with tears in my eyes."

Elijah pulled her tenderly into his embrace. For a long time he just held her but then as she lifted her head to look at him he kissed her deeply.

She let out a moan and her arms went around his neck.

Elijah held her tenderly as he continued to kiss her. He steered them to the edge of the bed and sat down with her to get her off her feet.

She didn't dare remove her arms from his neck.

In the laundry room, Bonnie was placing the undergarments in a mesh bag and in the washer.

As soon as she had the washer loaded and started Kol gripped her waist and sat her atop the washer. He stepped between her legs as his mouth met with hers. He began to kiss his little witch senseless. By the time the washer really got going Kol had slipped a finger inside her and the sensations quickly had Bonnie moaning.

"You're having a good day," Kol commented while Bonnie was coming undone thanks to his romantic prowess.

"A very good day." She moaned.

"I love you my darling little witch."

"I love you Kol," Bonnie replied sincerely, "always and forever."

"Someday in the not too distant future would you like to be large with my children and look like Elena? I can give that to you Bonnie. I'll give you anything."

"I just want you." She whispered. "Even if I get as big as Elena...I want to be with you and carry your children."

Kol grinned largely and he lifted her from the washer and spun her around in his delight. As he set her back down he made sure every inch of her body slid along his. He smiled as he watched the desire flare I her eyes. It hadn't been like this between them in months. He was overjoyed.

He couldn't stop kissing her, happily. Her fingers went through his hair and he growled.
