~ The End of The Affair part 2.
~ I was going to fit the rest of the episode in this chapter, but it would have been a longer chapter and you would have had to wait longer.
~ I ended up starting another story... I don't know when I will learn not to post a story when I'm already working on six at one time (now seven).

storylover3: Sadly, that is how he feels. I can say that he will get a chance to earn Elena back. As for Elena and Klaus, let's just say there will be many bumps between them... especially when Elena remembers all that he did.

~ There was only one review on the last chapter... there is usually two to four... although I am glad that it got at least one review.

~ Katherine, Damon, and Stefan all make an appearance in the beginning, there is a mini Klena (I think that's the couple name for Klaus+Elena), and of course, Gloria will make an appearance.

ENJOY!

~Stefan and Katherine~

Stefan and Katherine were in an apartment. Stefan stayed in the apartment when he was in Chicago, back in the 1920's. There was a layer of thin dust over everything, except the bed and a chair that Stefan was sitting on.
"I'm bored." Katherine said, sitting up on the bed to face Stefan.
"Then go." Stefan said, looking at her. "No one is keeping you here."
"You are such a party pooper Stefan." Katherine got up and stood and faced Stefan. "From what I remember you used to me so much more fun." She began to walked up to him, so they were a foot apart from each other. "Whatever happened to him?" Stefan was slightly annoyed by Katherine but if she wouldn't leave, then he would have to put up with her. He wasn't going to play her games, it would mean playing right into her hands.
"He found someone worth living for."
"Ouch." Katherine said, faking that she was hurt by his words. "She doesn't even remember you Stefan." Katherine stepped within inches of him. "Even if she does, she's with Klaus. It's not like she's going to come back to you."
"You don't know that."
"You're right Stefan, I don't. Neither do you. Klaus could be compelling her to stay with him. She could be his little puppet." She started to trail her finger along Stefan's shoulders. "You have almost no chance of getting her back." Katherine said in almost a whisper. "But I'm still here. The doppelganger you first fell in love with." Her finger reached the first button on his shirt. "You know I'm much older than her and wouldn't hesitate to shove a stake through her heart." Katherine looked straight into his eyes. "Elena doesn't have to know." She whispered as she slowly brought her lips to his. Stefan grabbed her hands and gave her a slight shove away.
"I'll never love you Katherine." He said, looking straight into her eyes.
"We'll see." Katherine said with a smirk.

A moment later, the door opened, revealing Damon.
"I hope I'm not interrupting anything." He said as he walked in, shutting the door behind him.
"Not at all." Katherine said, faking a smile.
"Good." Damon tossed his jacket over a chair. "I'm 99% sure Elena has some memories back."
"How do you know?" Stefan asked.
"That's not important." Damon said, not telling his brother about the feeling he had. "They are going to Gloria's, at least I'm pretty sure."
"What makes you think they are going to that old place?" Katherine asked.
"Yesterday Klaus said he was going to visit an old friend. That plus knowing he has trouble making hybrids equals a witch."
"Gloria." Stefan said in realization, which made Damon nod.
"That's assuming she's still alive."
"Well, lets go." Stefan got up from his chair.
"Hold your horses Stefie." Damon said. "We can't just try to get her back without a plan."
"If you have no plan, you'll end up dead." Katherine said, backing up Damon's point.
"I'll go." Stefan said, which gained the attention of both Katherine and Damon's attention. "I'll convince Klaus to let me take your spot. I can find out his plan and find out what Elena remembers." Stefan looked at his brother. "I'll text you when we can meet up and I'll tell you what's happening."
"How will you be able to get away from Klaus?" Katherine asked.
"I'll think of something." Stefan said before standing in front of Damon. "We will get her back." He emphasised 'will'. Damon nodded his head before Stefan started to make his way towards the door.
"Stefan." Damon said, which made Stefan turn around. "Good luck." Stefan nodded before leaving his brother alone with Katherine.

"Let's be clear on one thing Katherine." Damon said before Katherine said anything. "If you didn't know what was happening with Elena, I'd kick you all the way to Hawaii."
"And here I thought we were getting along." Katherine said with a smile. "Don't worry Damon..." Katherine took a step closer to Damon. "I haven't told Stefan about your dirty little secret."
"Who says I have a secret?" Damon asked, easily masking the slight panic he felt. 'Could she know I turned Elena?' He couldn't help but think.
"Elena's been compelled before by you." Her eyes connected to Damon's. "I wonder what it's been about."
"You'll never know." He said before picking up his jacked from the chair and walked out of the room, leaving Katherine alone.

~Klaus and Elena~

Elena and Klaus were walking side by side to Gloria's. When Damon left, Klaus treated Elena to room service and let her order whatever she wanted. They also fed a little from the person who brought them the food, but Klaus healed and compelled him. There was something that Klaus felt but he believed he couldn't feel. He spent a thousand years believing that he didn't have emotions, because they made you weak. Elena brought something out in him. He didn't want to feel it, but something kept him from pushing it down.

Klaus glanced at Elena, who was slightly smiling. Even though she was wearing sunglasses, he could tell that there was something in her eyes. A mix of emotion. Elena was feeling regret, for not knowing her past and for what she must be making Damon feel. She knew he loves her and it she could tell that he doesn't like her with Klaus. There was things she wanted to remember about Damon, about the two of them together. She tried, but it was blurry. Elena felt gratefulness towards Klaus for taking care of her and for everything that he has done so far, but she also felt scared. She thought that there was memories that she was scared to remember.

Klaus noticed a slight shift with Elena.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" He asked as they came to a corner.
"Nothing." Elena said, not looking towards him. He started to gently rub his finger on her arm. "I've just been thinking." She said before they started to cross the street.
"About what?"
"My memories. If I'll ever be able to remember them."
"Nobody ever really forgets everything Elena." Klaus said as they started to approach Gloria's bar. "I've lived for quite a long time and never forgot anything."
"But I forgot everything."
"But you'll remember."
"How can you be so sure?" Elena said as they stopped in front of the bar.
"Anything is possible Elena." He said as he looked into her eyes. "I know there are some memories that you might not want to remember and some that you do, but you have to know that they will come back."
"But what if they don't?" She asked worriedly.
"Then you will have to create new ones." He gave a small smile that Elena saw. She was glad that Klaus has been helping her and the support that she's been receiving from him.
"Thank you." She said in a whisper.
"For what?" Elena opened her mouth, but before she could say anything she saw someone behind Klaus.
"Stefan?" She asked, which made Klaus slightly confused before he turned around. They both saw Stefan walking towards them.

Stefan hid the sadness he felt when he saw how close Elena was to Klaus. He needed to get her away from him, but he couldn't. Seeing Elena with Klaus hurt him, but he had to find out what she remembered. To do that, he would have to take Damon's place at Klaus's side.
"Stefan, what a surprise." Klaus said as Stefan stopped in front of them. "Are you here to negociate for your brother?"
"I want to take his spot." Stefan said without looking to Elena. She could see the emotion that Stefan was trying to hide from Klaus.
"One Salvatore for the other, both wanting to protect the girl they love."
'They both love me?' Elena thought. 'Why would they want to protect me?'
'I was right about them' Klaus thought as he was debating rather or not to accept the trade offer presented to him. He did favor Stefan over Damon because of the time they spend together in the twenties. Stefan didn't know of their time together because Klaus had compelled him to forget so he would be safe. At the moment, Klaus could sense that Stefan didn't have vervain in his system, which meant he could remember.
"You can take his spot at my side." Klaus said after a few minutes with a smirk. Stefan's expression didn't change, knowing how Klaus might react. Klaus slipped his hand through Elena's, who didn't do anything about it. This didn't go unnoticed by Stefan. He, like Damon, doesn't like how close Elena seems to be with Klaus. Stefan walked behind Elena and Klaus as they walked into Gloria's bar.

Elena was standing on a dock, with a blanket wrapped around her shoulders as Stefan walked up behind her.
"Having another moment?" He asked as he wrapped his arms around her and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"Jeremy broke his arm diving off this dock when he was 6." Elena said as she pointed to the end. "My dad taught me how to fish right off the edge over there. So many memories." She quietly said. "Do you ever think about us. What our future will be like, our memories?" She asked Stefan.
"I think there are a lot of conversations to be had about our future, about the kind of life we could have together." Stefan said as he himself started to wonder. Here he had his human girlfriend in his embrace and they never talked about the possibility of her joining him in eternity.
"Now there's a box that we shouldn't open." Elena said, knowing what would soon happen to her. She couldn't tell anyone, knowing how they would react.
"Oh, we can open it." Stefan said in a whisper. "Whenever you're ready."
"No." She shook her head. "I'd rather just be here... now."
"You know, this is a future memory." Stefan started to whisper in Elena' s ear. "It's where your boyfriend whispered to you that he loved you. I love you." Elena smiled as Stefan kissed her on the cheek. They both continued to look out towards the lake.

Klaus opened the door, letting Elena enter first. Stefan went in after Klaus, staying behind because Klaus didn't want him near Elena at the moment.
"I used to visit this place in the twenties." Klaus whispered to Elena as she looked around. "Looks familiar, doesn't it Stefan?"
"I can't believe this place is still here." Stefan said as he looked around.
"You gotta be kidding me." Gloria said as she stepped into their view. Klaus smiled at the sight of her, knowing that she was still alive.
"So a hybrid walks into a bar, says to the bartender..."
"Stop. You may be invincible, but that doesn't make you funny." Gloria said before her eyes went straight to Elena. "You're the last doppelganger." Elena looked at Gloria with slight confusion. "You've turned." Elena gave a nod. "How did it happen?"
"I don't know." Elena said quietly, but Gloria was able to hear.
"You're Gloria." Stefan said, changing the subject from Elena's memory loss. "Shouldn't you be..."
"Old and dead?" Gloria asked. "Now if I die, who's going to run this place, huh?"
"Gloria's a very powerful witch." Klaus whispered to Elena.
"I can slow the aging down some. Herbs and spells. But don't worry, it'll catch up to me one day." She finished by looking at Elena.
"Stefan, why don't you go and fix us up a little something from behind the bar?" Klaus asked Stefan as a suggestion.
"Yeah, sure." Stefan glanced at Elena before going towards the bar.

Klaus stepped toward a table and pulled out a chair for Elena.
"Care to sit down?" He asked Elena, who just gave him a nod. "You look ravishing, by the way." Klaus said towards Gloria as he sat down. He placed his arm around Elena's shoulders, who wasn't bothered by it.
"Don't." Gloria said as she sat down. "I know why you're here. A hybrid out to make more hybrids? That kind of news travels."
"So what am I doing wrong? I broke the curse." Klaus said.
"Obviously you did something wrong." Elena could feel frustration starting to radiate from Klaus. "Look, every spell has a loophole, but a curse that old... We'd have to contact the witch who created it." Gloria explained.
"Well, that would be the original witch. She's very dead." Klaus said. He was too occupied with his conversation with Gloria to notice Stefan finding a picture from the last time he was here.
"I know. And for me to contact her, I'll need help. Bring me Rebecca."
"Rebecca. Rebecca is a bit preoccupied."
"She has what I need. Bring her to me." Elena looked at Klaus. She could tell he was starting to debate rather or not to introduce Rebecca to this decade.
"What is this?" Stefan said from the bar with a picture in his hand. Klaus, Elena, and Gloria, all turned their attention to Stefan.
"Well, I told you, Stefan." Klaus said as he stood from his chair. Elena sat a couple seconds longer than Klaus before getting up. "Chicago's a magical place."
"But this is me." Stefan said as he walked closer to Klaus. "With you." He flipped the picture towards Klaus, who gave a smile inside his head. Elena stepped up next to Klaus to get a better look at the picture. She felt confused when she saw Stefan and Klaus in the picture, smiling. 'What happened?' Elena thought. 'If they were friends before, why not now?'
"Let's get going." Klaus said before turning towards Elena. "We have to get Rebecca." He glanced towards Gloria before he started to walk out. Elena glanced at Stefan, who was looking at her. They almost shared the same look of confusion before following Klaus out the bar.

~ I'm thinking about having some Stelena moments in this story, but it will mainly be Damon/Elena/Klaus
~ I was originally going to have Elena wear the necklace, but then Rebecca would recognize it when she wakes up. I'm going to figure out a way to explain when and where the necklace went missing and possibly by who.

~ I'm going to put this story on a bit of a hiatus. I don't know how long it will be... but the more reviews, the shorter the time between chapters will be. I will try to get one chapter up a month, but if there are a lot of reviews, I'll try to update more often than once a month.

~ If everything goes to plan when I write the next chapter, this things will happen:
- Elena will reveal something that she remembers.
- Jeremy, Caroline, and Bonnie will have a scene together
- Damon pays a visit to Gloria
- Elena and Klaus might talk about Rebecca
- A possibility of Rebecca almost attacking Elena.
~ If there is anything you want to see in future chapters, don't be afraid to share.
