Chapter 28
Andrea P.O.V
I had volunteered to help decorate the hall for the upcoming decades dance; I knew Caroline was handling the organizations so I thought if I got involved then it might get them to talk to me a little bit. I was right they did start talking to me; they kind of forgot I was in love with Klaus; we talked about what we were wearing.
"Hey I heard you were an infamous jazz singer in the 20's, so do we get a special performance" Caroline said while placing some decorations on the table, I couldn't help but smile after thinking about the memories.
"Ha- Ha you wish, sorry but my jazz singer days are over" I said while sorting through some fabrics. I remember those days, Klaus and I would go to clubs and dance all night long.
"Here are some more decorations to sought through" Rebecca said while placing them on the table, Caroline had been pulled away to help someone else. "I am guessing you haven't seen my brother" she asked in curiosity.
"Nope last time I saw him it was the other day when I went to your house and he was keeping Bonnie hostage" I said while picking the fabrics of the table.
"Speak of the devil" she said while pointing towards the door. I turned around and there is Klaus walking through the hall towards me. All the girls stopped what they were doing and stared and even some hearts stopped, they thought he was stunning. In any other time, I would of loved how all the girls fell head over heels for his looks but today I was still mad at him. I could see that Caroline, Bonnie and Elena had stopped what they were doing and staring at him wondering what he was up to.
"What do you want; you know I am still mad at you for what you did with Bonnie" I said not bothering to look up at him, but I knew he had his charming face on.
"Love you know I needed that spell done if not all of us would have been dead due to your brothers selfish way, they should of listened to you" he said. This made me stop and glare at him; he knew he wasn't making the situation any better.
"Oh come on already, just have sex already, the sexual tension between to is making me sick" Rebecca said while walking past with some more decorations, it broke the silence and us starring at each other. She was right I think everyone could feel the sexual tension between us. I just rolled my eyes knowing Caroline could hear the whole conversation and was probably going to tell Elena and Bonnie.
"May I talk to you outside for a second, where there is a bit more privacy" he said while glancing towards Caroline and Rebecca who were leaning on a table pretending they were doing something but were really ears dropping. I just nodded and followed him outside.
"So love I didn't come here to argue, I know you're still mad at me but I am here to tell you I am leaving for good" he said while we took a seat at an empty table. I couldn't believe what he just said. "It's too dangerous here, I need to start over. So Rebecca and I have decided to leave tonight." I just stared at him not knowing what to say, I thought he was joking.
"I would ask you to join me but you need to stay here, sought things out with your brothers" he said while looking at me, he knew he was hurting me. "What about Elena, your hybrids" I asked finally getting the words out of my mouth.
" She will be coming with me, if she likes it or not, but not just yet I will come back for her" he said, I was shocked at that but I knew she would be safe. I got up not knowing what to do or say. "What about her family, her life is here in mystic falls. She hasn't even finished school yet" I said, I knew my brothers wouldn't go down without a fight but I wasn't really interested in that at the moment.
"So you will take her and not me, ha-ha this is just like the situation with my brothers. Am I ever going to be someone first choice or priority" I yelled, tears were falling now I couldn't keep them in. he just followed. "Love it's not like that, this way you can patch things up with your brothers. If you came with me I knew you would start blaming me after a few years and then begin to hate me" he said while grabbing my shoulder and turning me around he came in really close our faces were almost touching "love I promise we will be together one day and I will look out for you and love you till that day comes, but for now you have to work on getting you family back together, trust me you don't want to be without an family" he said. I couldn't say anything because in a second we were kissing. It was a kiss that I had been waiting for and it was more magical than any other kiss. He pulled back only a fraction away so I knew he wasn't finished.
"I love you; I always had and always will. Till the end" he said giving me a small smile. His breadth was mint and cold.
"I love you too, I have never stopped and never will. For always and forever" he kept smiling. We pulled back into each other and started kissing again. I didn't want this to end. I haven't kissed him like this for over 40 or odd years, I couldn't believe it was going to be the last for a while. He pulled back and within seconds he was gone. Leaving me like I have been for the last 10 years or so, Alone!
As soon as he left I broke out, even though we weren't together just knowing we were in the same town made me feel better. For years I wondered where he was, if he was safe or not and now it's going to be like that again. I tried to clean myself up before entering the hall, but I knew you could still see that I had been crying. As soon as I walked in the, I had seen the girls turn towards me and watch as I walked across the hall, trying to hide the fact that I had been crying. I knew it was only minutes before they tell Stefan or Damon.
Stefan P.O.V
I got a call from Elena telling me that Klaus had come to the school and spoke to Andrea, at first I was going to rip his throat because I said for him to stay away but then when she told me she came back in crying I knew he was the reason. I immediately got in the car and drove to the mansion; I was going to find out what he didn't get about leaving her alone and not hurting her.
"Klaus you're here" I said as I opened his front door, I knew if he wasn't home then some of his hybrids would be. I walked in and glanced around, still no one popped out from anywhere. So I continued to his study probably thinking he was in their painting. I walked past lots of boxes, so I figured the rumors are true that he and Rebecca are leaving for good.
I was going to continue through to the study but stopped when I saw some drawings falling out of a folder on top of a box. I wasn't going to stop but the person in the drawing caught my eye, it was of a girl but it wasn't just any girl it was Andrea. I picked it up and studied it closely, I then flipped through the rest of the folder, and there were more drawings of her. But what fascinated me the most was the dates on them. The dates started from like ages ago till now. I couldn't believe that he had drawn and kept these drawing throughout the years. I started to actually think he did care and love her. The drawings were so detailed and he captured every detail of Andrea's Beautiful face. She always had been so pretty and stunning. I hated to admit myself but he wouldn't draw these for any one, he wouldn't take the time to make them so detail if it was some random girl. So he must of loved her, I am guessing he still does because the newest one dated on back to a couple of days ago. I heard a noise coming from the other room and knew someone had arrived home, I didn't want to get caught sneaking into his stuff, so I quickly through them back and within a flash I had gone.
Andrea P.O.V
The dance was going to be boring, I wanted to get out of it but I knew if I stayed at home then I would just think about him. I had worn a dress that I actually wore back in the 20's but just fixed it up a little to make it more modern. As I predicted the dance was really boring, I just stood around while I watched everyone dance. Elena looked happy and so did Caroline they both had men that loved them, well Elena had Two. All night long I could see Stefan keep glancing at me, I didn't know if he was checking up on me or if he actually felt bad for the way he had been treating me lately. I couldn't help nut stand in the corner and consider what I was actually doing in mystic fall, why I kept putting myself into situations that always ended up making me suffer.
"Now why is such a beautiful lady, standing in the corner? When I know for a fact she should be out their making all the girls jealous" he said while standing beside me. As soon as I felt his presence, I could feel his familiar breath and I knew for a fact it was Klaus. I couldn't help but smile, when he put out his hand to lead me to the dance floor. I knew by now Stefan and the groups were probably looking at me but I didn't care, for one I was going to live the moment the way I wanted to. I didn't care that they were starring, for that moment I couldn't be happier.
"Thought you were leaving" I asked as he took my hand and wrapped it in his hand while his other one made its way to my waist. I felt comfortable the way I was being held and touched. I loved every second of it.
"Rebecca wanted to come to see how it all turned out, so we are leaving later tonight" he said while staring at me, our faces were close. I the tension between us was unbelievable. For a while I was quite nervous dancing with him, but he led the way. I glanced over his shoulder and could see that Elena and Stefan were standing on the side watching me; I knew the group had gathered up to talk about what he was doing here.
"I have to say, you look amazing tonight, it reminds me of back then. How you always take my breath away as soon as you enter the room" he said while still looking. He never once stops eye contact. It was like we were the only ones in the room. Our dancing was slow and in time, I couldn't help but feel butterflies in my stomach, something I haven't felt in a long time.
"Thank you, you don't look too bad yourself. It's a good way to remember you by" I said. I couldn't get the thoughts of him moving out my system.
"Like I said before, it is for the best, you'll thank me again one day when we meet again" he said. We twirled slowly around the dance floor. I didn't know what to say, so I leaned in and put my head on his chest. I just wanted this dance to last forever. I wanted to be this close with him till the end of time.
He leaned in even more, this time his lips were just above my ear. We talked for a bit, just saying cute little things to each other hoping the others wouldn't hear but I knew Damon was listening to every word. Klaus said something and I heard Damon Chuckle under his voice saying a comment. I got mad so I just stuck my finger up at him without leaving eye contact with Klaus. Damon was such an annoying brother sometimes, well actually all the time.
The dance was nearly over but all of the sudden I started getting weak in the head. I looked down trying to regain myself without Klaus hopefully noticing.
"You alright my love" he said while looking down at me and letting me lean on him a little bit more. My eye sight went weird and I felt really dizzy in the head. It felt like when you get up too quickly.
"Yeah, I just went a little weak in the head that's all" I said while placing my hand on my head and trying to regain my posture. Klaus could see it in my eyes though.
"Why do we go take a seat" he asked while gesturing me towards the seat. While we were walking towards the seats Stefan came up to both of us. I thought he was going to yell but he quickly just nodded letting Klaus know he was wanted him outside.
"Love why don't you have taken a seat and I will be back any second" he said while placing me on a seat before walking out of the hall with Stefan. Caroline and Tyler came running up as so as he left, making sure I was ok. As much as I said it, I knew something was wrong.
"I just need to go to bathroom" I said quietly while still looking down to the ground before getting up and walking towards the bathroom. I didn't know what was happening. All I knew that it was powerful.
I couldn't even get to the bathroom, I just had to lean on a locker and hope someone finds out where I am; besides it couldn't get much worse. It was like someone was draining all of my power outs. I had to try and stand little.
"You ok, Andrea" Stefan said while walking down the hall, he came in and looked worried. I could see Klaus was behind him something obviously was wrong.
"My Mothers back, and she got has Got Elena" I heard him say while Stefan grabbed my hand. I looked up towards him. He knew I couldn't do the spell." Bonnie is in the middle of working on one" he said. It was like he knew what I was thinking.
"That explains why I feel someone is draining power out of me. You go to Bonnie, I will stay here" I said while gesturing him to go with Stefan and try and fix this.
I sat in the hall for a little longer; I need fresh air so I went outside hoping it would help. I walked down towards the dust and knew I wouldn't get past it, but it couldn't help but try. Unexpectedly it worked, I stepped right over it. I had no idea how but it worked for me, obviously this whole draining power and letting me past the barrier was a sign from the original mother that she wanted me to find her.
I knew exactly where she was going to be, the place where it all began. I ran and instantly saw Elena crying while Alarc was on the ground. Jeremy and matt had both of their weapons towards each there, so I knew it wasn't long. I couldn't believe she was really doing this. I didn't even think I just ran straight up behind her and ripped her heart out pulling it out while Elena looked up and saw the life drain from her eyes. I didn't even think about what the Klaus or the others were going to do, in that second all I cared about was Elena, Alarc, matt and Jeremy. I dropped her body and ran straight over to them.
"What happened" I said as I leant over his body. I looked and could see he didn't have his ring on.
"She killed him, he is dead Andrea" she said sobering trying hard to find the words to say. I looked down again.
"No he is not" I said while studying his body.
"What do you mean, he is not dead" Matt said while storming over with Jeremy. I looked up at them.
"If you have lived as long as I have, you can start to tell the difference between a dead body and a…" I stopped knowing it was going to be hard to say this to them.
"Vampire" I heard Elena said softly, before she could finish Alarc opened his mouth and started to take a big breadth like he had been holding on for it for ages.
As soon as he was awake, they looked at each other. I knew it was going to be hard to tell him he was one of the things he has been hunting for years.
I waited outside while everyone said their goodbyes to Alarc. I looked at Damon and could see he was hurting inside. Alarc was his best friend even If he didn't admit it. I went home soon after that, I knew Damon was going to stay longer and Stefan was probably going to make sure Elena and Jeremy got home alright.
"Hey Andrea, wait up" Jeremy said while gesturing Elena and Stefan to wait for him. They waited behind while he ran up to me just as I was leaving the bush.
"I wanted to say thanks for tonight, you saved our Asses. Look I don't the whole story but I am not mad at you and I don't think you betrayed us. Back there you showed us that you are just trying to protect the ones you love and that are what you have been doing this whole time, so I just want you to know I am not mad at you and Thank you. " he said, it made me smile to think he actually can see that I am just trying to help. I gave him a quick smile as I walked off into the bush.
I took the longer way home; I think I just needed to think about a few things but especially on how I was going to tell Klaus. I did rip his mother's heart out. I took a long shower and just kept scrubbing the blood of my hands, she was the second person I had killed and beside she was one of us, she was a witch. I got out and got into my cute little short PJs, when I looked up I saw Klaus in the corner of my room; I just stared at him not knowing what to say.
"I am so sorry, I had to she was going to kill Elena" I said as I quickly walked over to him trying to explain everything. "I know you probably hate me but... "He came quickly over to me and put his finger on my lips to shut me up.
"Love I am not angry at you, she was going to kill us. I am here to say Thank you, I know it must be hard on you" he said while coming closer I was really surprised that he was angry. He was actually happy she was dead. "But if you ever go do something that dangerous again, I will get mad. She wanted you there, she wanted you dead" he said. I just nodded and looked down a little knowing what I did was stupid. He just lifted my chin up and began to kiss me. Again the kiss was magical, I knew I wanted to go further but he stopped knowing he didn't want to lead me on because he was leaving soon. He was going to go leave but I stopped him by grabbing his hand.
"Klaus, can you stay. Just stay with me tonight, hold me like you used to. I need you" I said while looking at him. He just led me to my bed and we got comfortable. He laid into him, loving every moment. I knew I didn't want to fall asleep because I knew when I woke up he would be gone.
Damon P.O.V
"You reckon we should go wake up Andrea, see how she is doing" I said as I looked at Stefan and Elena, who were both in the lounge room.
"Why, don't wake her up. Just leave her she will be fine" Stefan said as we entered the house. I was concerned but, she didn't stay after.
"But Stefan, she just killed for her second time, she must be feeling upset" I said while I placed the things down. Andrea had only killed once before and that was when she was just turned. She always didn't believe in vampires being murderers. I said goodnight to Stefan and walked up stairs. I quickly checked up on her and saw she was fast asleep, I could see that her bed had been disturbed on the other side and I automatically guessed she hadn't been alone, but for some reason I didn't care I was just hoping my sister wasn't going to be affected by this all.
