Recap: Damon is still compelled to go after Jeremy, Elena is on her "You gotta kill Kol" spree. Kol compelled Adelina out of jealously over Jeremy, and Jeremy and Adelina kissed.
Jeremy and Adelina fell back onto the bed, breathing hard. "Woah," Jeremy said, trying to catch his breath.
"Not bad for a human," Adelina laughed. She looked out, it was morning. Jeremy rolled over so he was on top of her, he kissed her again.
"Jeremy, we need to talk." Adelina said, as he kissed down her neck. "No more talking," He said, silencing her with a kiss. Adelina flipped them over, so she was on top. "We need to talk."
"Okay, okay, what do you want to talk about?" Jeremy asked, putting his hands on her waist.
"How about the fact, that you come to my house, tell me you love me, and seduced me into my husband and I's bed." Jeremy sighed, as Adelina got off him, and but some clothes on.
"It's not like it was a crime." Jeremy sighed,
"It's adultery!" Adelina said putting on her shirt.
"It's not like you haven't done it before," Jeremy said, walking over to her.
"This is different, Jer, last time Kol was in a coffin. Now he's on a manhunt for you and he compelled me to stay away from you and we were just having sex. If Kol finds out-"
"He's not going to find out." Jeremy reassured her,
"We can't to that again. I care about you Jer, I do. You're my best friend and-"
"Save it, Lina. I need you to look me in the eyes and tell me you don't feel something with me." Adelina felt her heart pull at his words, true she felt something, but nothing compared to what she had with Kol. He was right when he said she loved him from the time they first met.
"I love him, Jeremy. Now I'm not saying I don't have feelings for you, but I love Kol, and that's not going to change." Jeremy was about to say more, but Adelina stopped him. "You should go." Adelina walked over to the bed and began changing the sheets to cover her tracks. She didn't look back as Jeremy left.
Kol came back around noon, "Honey, I'm home!" He said walking into their bedroom. Adelina was standing by the window, twirling her wedding ring around her finger. She jumped when she heard him come in. "Someone's jumpy," Kol commented.
"Yeah, I'm sorry." Kol looked her over, noticing how she fiddled with her ring.
"You're nervous." He said, eyeing her.
"W-Why would you say that?"
"You're playing with your ring; you only do that when you're nervous." Kol said, walking closer to her, Adelina fought the urge to back away from him. Kol was nose to nose with her, when she heard him inhale. She took a shower to get the Jeremy's scent off her, her heart pounded hoping Kol wouldn't notice.
"You're heart's racing, darling." He whispered his hand at her pulse point in her neck. "Did you find Jeremy?" She dared to asked,
"No, but I'm sure he'll be dead by tonight. No matter, he's not what's on my mind." Kol said, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear.
"What's on your mind?" Adelina asked trying to control the shaking in her voice, as Kol's hands wondered down her body. Her body reacted with vigor, it would have anyway, but the compulsion just made it worse.
"How delectable you look in my shirt," His smile was evil, Adelina could feel her heart in her throat as Kol slowly unbuttoned the shirt she was wearing, pulling it away to reveal she had nothing on underneath. His eyes went dark, an animalistic sound came out of him as he grabbed her, and sped to the bed.
Kol watched her sleep, he always did. She was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen and she was his. But not completely, not while Jeremy Gilbert had a hold on her. Her love was his, there was no doubting that. But Adelina was loyal to Jeremy, she felt something toward him, something she never felt toward him. Kol knew it in the way they looked at each other back at the bar. Adelina didn't help Kol when Damon grabbed him, she helped Jeremy.
He knew that if Jeremy died at his hand, Adelina would never forgive him. She stayed with him through everything; a thousand years of darkness he had put her through. She didn't deserve that; Kol didn't deserve her. But she stayed with him, that's why he loved her. She was his light. If he lost her, he'd be gone.
He got out of bed, grabbing his phone and went for a walk. As he was walking his phone rang, it was Jeremy. "Jeremy Gilbert, nice to see I'm still on your speed dial, mate. Listen no hard feelings; you know how I get about Adelina." Kol said,
"Actually, it's Elena Gilbert."
"What a treat." Kol said dryly, "Here I was just thinking about all the clever ways I can have your brother killed. But I'd settle with ripping off his illustrated arm instead."
"I need to talk to you, in person, I want to call a truce in the name of Silas." Elena said, Kol stopped in his tracks.
"You want to talk about Silas?"
"I'll meet you wherever you want, I'll come to you." She said,
"Tell you what, I'll come to you." Kol zoomed up to the Gibert house, ringing the doorbell. "If you want a truce, open the door and invite me in." Elena stopped, not knowing what to do, anything she said to Jeremy or Matt, Kol would hear. She grabbed the chalkboard on the wall and began writing.
"I'm waiting, let me in and let's talk truce." Kol said from outside. Elena quickly wrote a note to Matt telling him to find Stefan and the dagger. Then telling Jeremy to go and get Bonnie. Matt left, leaving Jeremy and Elena to invite Kol inside. Elena went and opened the door, "You'd think being alive 1000 years I'd learn some manners, but I couldn't resist stopping by." Kol said, turning off his iPod.
"If I let you in, my brother goes, you're not getting near him." Elena bargained, Kol looked at Jeremy who was holding a crossbow up at him. Kol smiled, "Fair enough."
"You can come in." Jeremy said, Kol smiled stepping through the threshold, "Adelina sends her hellos, but she's rather sore at the moment." He smirked at him. Jeremy just left through the back door.
"No gold medals for bravery I see," Kol commented. "You know the thing I love about the modern age is music, anytime you like." Kol put the iPhone in his pocket, not before Elena saw the white oak stake in his jacket pocket. "So, this is the part where you offer me a drink, so we can have a proper chat." Kol smiled as Elena stepped back, gesturing toward the living room.
Kol was standing in the living room, playing Jeremy's Xbox, when Elena walked back in. "Sorry, had to dig up the old people alcohol." She shrugged, holding up seltzer water and vodka. Kol sighed, pausing the game,
"See that's the problem with people today, they have no drinking imagination. Turn of the century New Orleans, now they knew how to make a drink." Kol said,
"You lived in New Orleans?" Elena asked, acting intrigued by his story.
"It was my family's favorite place to be, Adelina's too, we were married there." Kol smiled at the memory. It was Adelina's favorite place in the world.
"I thought you two were married when you were human?" Elena said,
"Well when you live for as long as we have, you get married many times. New Orleans was our favorite place, so I thought why not." Kol said, "Then Niklaus shoved a dagger in my heart."
"Wow. What did you do?" Elena asked getting glasses,
"What makes you think I did anything?" Kol defended. "Has your alliance with my brother softened you to his horrors?"
"I'm not in an alliance with Klaus, we had a mutual interest in finding the cure, that's all." Elena said.
"Had?" Kol asked,
"Yes, and I promise to give up looking for it if you promise to leave my brother alone." Elena offered, "Now can you teach my how to make this?" She said, Kol just continued to look at her, wondering whether to trust her or not. But he took the seltzer water anyway, as Elena went to get ice. She checked her phone, seeing a text from Jeremy that he needed more time to get Bonnie.
Jeremy got to Bonnie's house, she was working on a spell to stop Kol. "Is it done?" Jeremy asked, as Bonnie finished the spell on one of the daggers. "Yes, why do you need this? Why not use the stake against Kol?" She asked, Jeremy had texted her, asking her to find a way to stop Kol without the white oak stake.
"Because killing Kol would kill Adelina, and I can't let that happen." Jeremy said. "Will this work?" He said holding the dagger.
"Yeah, the dagger will work like it normally would, desiccate Kol. No vampire or human can pull it out except the person who daggers him. You. All compulsion will wear off, the works." Bonnie explained.
"And Adelina will be safe?" Jeremy asked, Bonnie nodded. Jeremy quickly left her house, heading back to his house.
Elena and Kol were still in the kitchen, talking over drinks. "You're really good at that game," Elena commented on the Xbox game Kol was playing earlier, "You know, considering you've been locked up in a coffin for 100 years." She took a sip of her drink.
"I'm a quick learner, fast reflexes; it's nothing like the real thing though is it?" He asked, Elena looked at him, putting her drink back on the counter. "You've killed haven't you? Or are you one of those Mary Sue vampires?" He took a sip of his drink.
"I've killed, once. Guessing your number is a lot higher than mine." She said, Kol smirked, "You lose track over the years. So are we going to talk about Silas or just jibber-jabber?" Elena motioned to the living room, before pulling out her phone seeing that Jeremy got what he needed from Bonnie, but Matt needed more time, she walked over to Kol.
"No one else seems to think Silas exists, so why do you?" Elena asked,
"I used to run with some witches; Africa in the 14th century, Haiti in the 17th century, New Orleans in the 1900's. They all knew about Silas, that he needed to stay buried. I actually hold witches in high esteem." Kol explained,
"Yeah, but why Silas? Why are you so afraid of him?"
"They said if you raise Silas, he'll unleash hell on Earth. I happen to like Earth just the way it is."
"That's pretty Biblical," Elena sighed,
"Well that's the other problem with people today, they lost faith. And in that loss, they no longer know who they should fear." Kol explained, Elena left to get more drinks when they ran out. But came back with wine,
"So we're out of gin, but I think this is a good year." She said about the bottle,
"What if I said I don't believe you?" Kol said,
"Okay, you caught me, I don't know anything about wine." Elena said, putting the bottle down.
"It just seems odd that you'd be willing to give up something you wanted so much." Kol said, facing her.
"I would do anything for my brother; and if what you're saying about Silas is true, what does it matter what I want if it puts everyone else in danger?" Elena said,
"Well, this has been enlightening, thanks for the drinks." Kol said turning to walk out. Elena walked after him, trying to think of something to say to delay him. Kol turned before walking out, "I'll take your truce under advisement." He said simply.
"Is there any chance that you could be wrong about Silas?" Elena tried to stall him,
"Trust me Elena, some things are better left buried." Kol said shutting the door.
Jeremy got back to the house about an hour later, it was quiet, no one in sight. He pulled his stake gun out, aiming it around to make sure it was safe. Elena came into view, "I'm sorry, he left, I tried to stall as long as I could." She explained, just then the doorbell rang. "It's Bonnie, she was right behind me." Jeremy said, Elena went to the door to reveal Kol.
"I've considered your request for a truce. Request denied." Elena shut the door in his face, "I'm sorry, I've already been invited in!" He kicked down the door, Elena and Jeremy were gone. "Hide and seek? Fine by me." As Kol was searching around the house, Kol called Klaus.
"Well if it isn't the happy homicidal maniac." Klaus greeted,
"Did you know that your darling former blood bag and her brother are trying to kill me?" Kol explained, Klaus' face dropped. "What?"
"Don't pretend like you're not in on it? You're obsession with the cure, clearly trumps any sibling loyalty you once felt."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Klaus said honestly.
"I'm going to rip off Jeremy's arm and kill Elena just for sport, then I'm coming for you." Kol hung up continuing to hunt for the Gilberts. He got the bottom of the stairs when an arrow went into his leg. He saw Elena zoom up the stairs. She ran into her room, pushed her dresser in front of the door just as Kol got to it. Kol barged in, as Elena ran through doors locking them in an attempt to keep him out. Kol kicked down each one. He punched through Jeremy's door, when Jeremy fired a stake at him. Kol caught it.
"Missed me!" Jeremy fired another one, which Kol caught. "Missed again!" Elena fired the hand gun loaded with wooden bullets into Kol's chest. Kol threw a stake into Elena's leg as Jeremy ran into the hall. Kol grabbed Jeremy punching him in the face, "That's for sleeping with my wife!" He kicked him down the stairs. Elena jumped on Kol's back to stop him, but Kol just took a pole from the railing and shoved it through her stomach, nailing her to the wall. Kol walked back to the stairs where Jeremy was lying, "Now about that arm." Kol walked down the stairs, hopped over Jeremy and dragged him into the kitchen.
"Now I know, you fancy my wife and everything, but let's be honest here, who do you think she's going to choose in the end?" Kol asked, as he pulled Jeremy by the leg into the kitchen.
"She loves me," Jeremy groaned, Kol stopped, reaching down, picking Jeremy up by the throat. "She loves me. You're just a rebound because she's angry with me. I'm her true love, you're just the flavor of the month. She slept with you, so what? Has she admitted her feelings to you?" Jeremy was quiet, "No hard feelings, mate, but Adelina. Is .Mine." Kol shoved Jeremy onto the counter, tying is hands down.
Kol turned grabbing the cleaver, "Now like I said, I don't fancy the hunter's curse, so I'm just going to chop off your arm. But don't worry, I'll heal you with a little bit of blood straight after." Kol held his head down, "Sorry about the sting," He stopped, "Which one is it? I'll just chop off both to be safe." Kol lifted the knife, when Elena rushed in, pushing him into the opposite wall. The cleaver came down on the tie freeing Jeremy's arm.
Elena shoved the cleaver into Kol's shoulder, as Jeremy got up. He grabbed the hose from the sink, spraying the vervain tap water in Kol's face. Elena grabbed the stake from Kol's jacket, but Jeremy had the dagger from Bonnie. He ran up, shoving it in Kol's heart. Kol stopped, gasping for air, as Jeremy made sure the dagger would stay in his heart. "She can't be yours if you're dead." Jeremy said letting him go, Kol's body slowly turned grey and he tumbled into the hallway and finally fell over, as good as dead.
Back at the mansion, Adelina felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She walked over to the door of their bedroom, and was able to touch the handle. Her heart dropped.
Elena and Jeremy ran to the front door to see Klaus standing looking down at Kol's body. "What did you do?" Klaus demanded,
"W-We didn't have a choice, he was trying to cut off Jeremy's arm." Elena tried to explain,
"Lies! He never would have gotten inside if you hadn't had set a trap for him!" Klaus growled at her,
"You were going to put him down too!"
"I was going to make him suffer on my terms!" Klaus yelled at her. "I'm going to burn this house to the ground, and then when you try to flee for your lives I'll kill you both without blinking." Klaus promised.
"If you kill us you'll never get the cure, you'll never get to make any more hybrids." Jeremy said,
"You think I give a damn about my bloody hybrids! I want the cure so I can destroy it. I would have killed you all the second we dug it up, but now I'm just gonna watch you burn instead!" Just then Klaus dropped to his knees in pain, Bonnie appeared behind him.
"Invite him in. Do it!" She told Jeremy,
"Come in." Jeremy said, Klaus ran into the house, but Bonnie crimpled him to allow Jeremy and Elena time to run. "Living room go!" Bonnie yelled after them. Jeremy and Elena ran into the living room with Klaus on their tail. Elena sped Jeremy into the kitchen leaving Klaus stuck. Klaus banged on the barrier speeding to the other side, only to be blocked again. Being face to face with Bonnie. "Witch! You can't do this to me!"
"You have no idea what I can do." Bonnie said,
"I will hunt all of you to your end!" Klaus promised, as Elena, Bonnie and Jeremy left him with Kol's body.
Adelina walked to Jeremy's house, the compulsion wore off, so she had to find Kol. She walked up to the porch to find the door left open. She opened the door to see Kol lying on the hallway floor, not moving. "No! No,no,no, Kol! Kol, wake up!" She panicked, tears came to her eyes. Why wasn't he moving? "Kol, please! You have to wake up! I'm sorry Kol, please wake up!" She shook his cold, grey lifeless body. She looked to see the dagger in his chest, she went to grab it when it burned her like she had touched concentrated vervain. She grabbed the dagger again, trying to ignore the pain, using all her strength to pull the dagger out but she couldn't. Her hands burned.
She touched his face, it was cold. "Kol, please, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! Please come back, I love you." She cried on his body, for what seemed like hours, when she heard someone behind her. She saw Klaus, "Who did this?"
"Who do you think?"
"No, he couldn't, he wouldn't." Adelina's heart sank, not wanting to admit what she already knew, Jeremy did this. "No, no!" Her head dropped back onto Kol's body as more tears fell. Then something just snapped in her, she sat up, looking at Klaus, "Where are they?"
"Off to find the cure, they'll be dead once I get free." Klaus said,
"No need." Adelina said, looking at Klaus with hatred in her eyes.
"I'm going to watch. Them. Burn."
A/N: Well that escalated quickly…So Kol isn't "dead" but he isn't alive. This was actually my idea when the episode aired of what I wanted to see happen to Kol and of course Julie Plec and her horrible team of writers killed him off.. But that's beside the point. Yes, Adelina and Jeremy slept together, yes, Jeremy daggered Kol, and all hell is about to break loose. Review and tell me what you think! Still Team Jeremy?
