Rebekah was sitting in Klaus' study/art room on a plush couch when she heard a commotion downstairs. "Kol," Klaus hissed. ""Baby sister! I thought this day would never come. Me, the loving brother, Niklaus the nutcase, and you. We are all slowly getting domesticated and you happen to be preggers!" Kol joked from the door of the study. "Niklaus, do you mind explaining why my train of thought was interrupted by this bastard?" Rebekah shouted angrily. "Now, now Becks, we all know that the real bastard is going to storm into this room in three….two…one." As Kol points at the door, Klaus marches in with a scowl on his face.
"Elijah will be here in a few hours. You have successfully made us all frantic. Elijah said that he has some news for Rebekah and possibly me." Klaus says surprisingly calmly.
"In response to that, I did some research and our dear sister will deliver in approximately nine weeks. According to the Bennet witch vampire babies grow very quickly. Then after birth a spell must be cast on them to slow their growth." Elijah suddenly says from the double doors.
"Elijah, you made it! I thought you would ignore something that is as impossible as this. I just need my family here right now." Rebekah says from her makeshift throne on the couch. She quickly adds, "Don't worry brothers; I will be spending tomorrow with Caroline, Elena, and Bonnie."
Kol placed a hand to his chest and in mock hurt said, "Ouch, my sister is ditching me for friends. It's not like I wanted some drinking time alone or possibly with my brothers or anything." Elijah and Klaus scoff and roll their eyes as Elijah goes to kiss Rebekah's cheek and begin asking his burning questions.
Elena was sitting on her couch with Bonnie when Bonnie gasped. "Uh, Elena why do I sense a heartbeat inside of you?" "I don't know, I don't have a heartbeat so…" Elena said, beginning to panic. Before Bonnie could respond Elijah burst into the house. "Elena, Katarina called me and she shared some news about what condition you are now in. Considering your facial expressions, I should hurry this up. Katherine was cursed and now she can conceive children. She conceived and found a witch to transfer the, well, it into your womb. But she obviously didn't learn her lesson and got pregnant again and had that fetus transferred to a witch who, in hopes of getting revenge, planted the fetus in my sister whilst she slept." Elijah finished with an exasperated look.
As Elijah spoke Elena thought of what the Salvatore brothers would do, they had already both left her. Then her thoughts wandered to Tatia, who had been fought over by two brothers and had a baby before marriage. It didn't stop there though; Katherine had a baby before marriage and was fought over by not one but two sets of brothers. When she thought about the doomed future of all of the doppelgängers so far, a lone tear trailed down her cheek.
Elijah looked at Elena and asked Bonnie something when Elena was lost in her own thoughts, Bonnie nodded and told Elena that she had to go meet with someone that she was helping decode a spell.
Soon it was just Elijah and Elena staring at each other. "Just so you know, I forgave you for leaving me with Rebekah. My only regret is not tracking you down and telling you sooner." Elena said, breaking the long silence. Elijah nodded solemnly and wiped the stray tears from her cheeks. "Tell me dear Elena, what could have thoughts drove you to tears?" He asked kindly, but truly curious.
"Tatia and Katherine went through what I'm going through now. Maybe all doppelgängers are doomed to this fate. I also was thinking about how the hell I am going to raise a baby on my own, and pay rent." She rushed out all of her new found fears with a few sobs following. Elijah felt her pain and pulled her to his chest and rubbed her back comfortingly while whispering kind words in her ear.
"Not to ruin a moment but you will deliver in nine weeks." An angry Damon said from the doorway.
A/n: Here is the second chapter! I think I want to get Caroline and Matt involved in the story more, considering they are part of my main couples. Maybe… like always review please!
