As I now stood in front the mirror in my jogging suite, while working to put my hair up in a ponytail. I found my mind once again drifting off as I allowed myself to get lost in my own head.
Ok so it's been about week or two since I was rescued from out the clutches of one homicidal Niklaus Mikaelson. And in that time Stefan somehow managed to get Klaus to send his Hybrids away, Bonnie located her mother, and Alaric alongside his now girlfriend Meredith Fell are the two main suspects in the recent killings of a few council members. So as you can see for everyone in town it's just been business as usual, except for me that is. You see ever since I expelled that electrical discharge as Damon and Stefan now refer it to as. I've been having these weird and random fits of rage added with reoccurring flash backs from my childhood, that I honestly don't remember ever happening.
Now I've told Damon about what I've been experiencing but he doesn't think anything of it and it's not like I can go to Stefan. Especially seeing as he's still in his douche bag revenge mode which leaves me to figure this out all on my own. I would have gone to Bonnie but she's far too busy dealing with mother and trying to unseal a coffin, and even though I'm on somewhat on good terms with Caroline now I wouldn't want to burden her with my weirdness. After she nearly died do to Tyler being forced to bite her. Speaking of which is the reason we're on somewhat good terms right now. I mean the girl nearly died at the hands of my ex-boyfriend who's now her current boyfriend, none the less. What can I say, being screwed over by the same guy tends to somewhat bring girls together. Oh and that brings me to my next thought which is why on earth would Klaus have Tyler bite Caroline when he's just gonna heal her anyways? Don't get me wrong I am beyond glad that Caroline's alive, or undead, or whatever the politically correct term is for someone in her current situation. But the whole thing just seems messy and all over the place for such a careful and devious planner like I digress; the main thing here is that something's up with me and as usual, I'm alone in trying to figure it out.
So upon bringing myself back to reality I exhaled, glanced myself over in the mirror and then headed out the door for my now routine mid day run.
0~o~0
After about a good solid two hours of alternating between running and walking I finally stopped and took a break at the corner of an intersection. As I stood there kneeled over trying desperately to steady my breathing, I saw from my peripherals someone just peering at me from the other side of the street. So with that I casually lifted myself up right and glanced over to my right, but when I did I saw that there was no one there. Now feeling a bit uneasy, and with my nerves getting the better of me I quickly ran across the street and didn't stop running until I made it home. Fearing with every step that Klaus would just suddenly appear in front of me and take me away, god I hate living in fear.
Now home, I wasted no time making my way up the stairs and though my room was the intended target. I instantly noticed that Stefan's door was slightly ajar and as I drew closer to it I began to hear the voices of both Damon and Stefan in what seemed to be a slightly heated conversation. Apparently Stefan wasn't too happy with something Damon had just recently done and then after about a few more minutes of snooping I heard Stefan say as clear as day "There's nothing smart about un-daggering Elijah. He betrayed once before or did you forget."
Immediately after hearing Elijah's name be spoken a light gasp escaped passed my lips, and obviously it caught the boy's attention. Because the next thing I know Stefan's bedroom door suddenly flies open and in the door way now Damon.
"Didn't anyone ever tell you it's rude to eavesdrop?" asked Damon in a highly mocking tone
"Well didn't anyone ever tell you to make sure that the door is closed when you're engaging in a private conversation?" I countered back
"Touché." Grinned Damon before the proceeding back into the room, only this time he left the door wide open.
"So what's this about Elijah being un-daggered?" I asked trying my hardest to sound uninterested about the topic at hand
"Why don't you ask Damon, he's the genius that un-daggered him in the first place." Responded Stefan in a less than happy tone.
"Hey I played the cards that I was dealt. Klaus was on his way for all the coffins and I made decision. Now hurry up and get dress so we can negotiate a fake truce with Klaus." Stated Damon with authority
"Ok so you un-daggered Elijah, but when exactly was he a daggered to begin with?" I asked as I was a bit confused. I mean I knew that Klaus had his family daggered in boxes but up until now I didn't know that Elijah was one of them. I mean I never asked and neither Stefan nor Damon ever told me so talk about new information.
"He was daggered by Klaus not long after helping him escape from us. I saw it happen when I went to Klaus to get the cure for Damon." Answered Stefan
"Wait a second why do you care when Elijah was daggered?" asked a now curious and highly skeptical Damon
"I don't." I quickly responded, though maybe it was too quick seeing as after my reply both Damon and Stefan began giving me a weird look. Feeling very uncomfortable now I decided that was probably best for me to leave this these two alone. "You know what I'm just gonna go."
As I hastily rushed into my room I wasted no time at all closing the door shut behind me. With my back still pressed against the door countless thoughts and feelings suddenly came flooding back as I thought about the well suited Original. I mean to find out now after all this time that Elijah had been daggered and was one of the family members being lugged around in a coffin all this time.
I felt so guilty for being mad at him this entire time but then I remembered that his daggering came after his betrayal. He got daggered because he lied to me, because he decided to go back on his word. If he had helped us kill Klaus then he would have never been locked away in a box. God what was wrong with me, was I just about to let Elijah get off the hook all just because he was daggered and stuffed in a box?
No that wasn't the reason why; it was because at one point in time I found myself greatly drawn to him. But you know what, that little girly fantasy I had would have to be destroyed. Elijah is an Original and they can't be trusted. Plus everything that has happened since the hybrid ritual was all because Klaus survived, and the only reason he survived was because of Elijah. So snap out of it Sam, because Elijah's an enemy not a friend. And if I knew what was good for me I'd remember that.
