Chapter 4
"Elijah what are you doing here?" I ask him completely shocked as he approaches me.
"I don't know. I was walking into the woods and came to here without noticing." He says honestly. "What about you?" He says and I start to look over to the trees, still sitting on the floor.
"Rebekah went to school I went to the grill, found Klaus and end up having a fight with him."
"I didn't knew you were still angry at me brother." He says and I noticed he is sitting next to me but still keeping a distance. Thank god for that distance or I would know what would happen.
"He killed members of my family because of her." I say not being able to say her name. Her name is the reason to all this mess.
"I know he regret the moment he did it." He says looking at me, but to at me eyes, just like I am looking at him. Neither of us was able to look into each other eyes, for a lot of reasons. I also know is not only speaking of Klaus but about himself too but I can't forgive him, I can't.
"You are apologizing for him?"
"What else should I apologize for? Since I know it is the only mistake you can forgive, because deep down you already did forgive him." He says and I take a deep breath. He's right. I did forgive Klaus decades ago when he came looking from me.
"You're right. I can forgive him because even in this angrier moment your brother still was able to keep part of the bloodline alive. Because even in that state your brother was able to still remember our friendship what is means to me. What is your excuse?" I ask him getting angry. Angry is good it keeps me for falling apart in front of him. I look at him and I see the regret on his face. The regret I saw before but that I can't let it affect me because it will break me once more.
"I don't have any because I broke the best think in my life, our love." He says to me and I start to feel the tears so I ran. I ran faster as I could.
Elijah P.O.V.
When she runs I can blame her. What I did to her was horrible and terrible. I look around at this place, the place, our place.
*Flashback*
"I found you once again in here." I say sitting at her side she looks at me with a smile.
"I like it in here. It is the only place here I can think."
"About what?"
"Everything. My family, my crazy dreams, my hopes." She says softly the last part.
It has no strange for me what I feel for her. I love her in a way I never loved any woman before. Tatia and I are more than broken, she was selfish and couldn't make a decision and to be honest when I look at her I didn't saw her brown eyes, I saw the soft blue/grey eyes. Even Klaus was steeping back and forgetting her. We were finally the brothers we were before.
"What hopes?" I ask her and she looks down one more time, I push her jaw and make her face my eyes. I could see everything, the doubt, the fear and the love.
"You." She simply says and I kiss her lips softly. They start to move together and it was like there was nothing but the two of us. We kiss for what it look like hours even if it was minutes, I pull apart so that we can breathe.
"I'm sorry, I should not be this forward." I say and I notice her blush. "I want to woo you." I say and she looks at me surprised. "I want to woo you, public and I wish with your father permission to make our union officially forever."
Her eyes got bigger just like her smile and I fell warm with her in my arms. It feels right. "Are you sure?"
"I haven't been surer of anything in my life."
"I still cannot believe my father and your both agreed with our engagement." She says to me while she is leaning on my chest between my legs.
"My family loves you. Rebekah is happier than ever because she loves you. Kol and Klaus are happy because they always saw you as a sister. Everyone is happy about it."
"Not everyone." She says getting a little sad. It was true there is a member of her family that isn't much happy about it.
"Tatia is being selfish Bella. She knows it."
"Do you still have felling for her?" She asks me with her insecure. Over the past 2 months I learn a lot about her and I found out who she always fells on the shadow of her younger sister which for me is crazy because she is one hundred times better than her.
We are both looking at the stars. Well Bella is I am just looking at her face lighter by the moonlight and I take a deep breath.
"What is it?" She says turning to me worry.
"I love you." I simply says and her smile worth more than the starts.
"I love you too Elijah." She says and I give her a gently kiss on her lips.
I get up and start to walk home regretting what I have done years ago. I love her, I always love her. There was no way to convince myself that I wasn't. But everything we been thought, all the love, it was gone.
Klaus P.O.V.
I get into the Salvatore's because I need to speak with Val, she is gone and this is my last hope. When I get there I see Stefan, Caroline, Damon, Bonnie and Elena looking at me surprised.
"What are you doing here?" Stefan asks.
"Have you seen Valeria?" I ask the group showing my emotions.
"No, I'm sorry." Caroline says to me and someone with vampire speed enters and climbs the stairs and I hear a door close. Stefan is about to get upstairs when I stop him.
"I will go."
"Klaus." Stefan says warming me but I look at him showing that I know how to deal with this.
I get my phone and call my sister Rebekah.
"I found her." I say as soon she answers.
"Where is she?"
"She just came to the Salvatore's."
"I am on my way."
"No, go home."
"Why?"
"Trust me, I want the house intact, I will talk with Val."
She takes and deep breath. "Ok."
I start to climb the stairs in direction to the room. When I get in I can hear she sobbing on the bed with her face turn to the window. I get to the other side of the bed and hug her kissing her hair.
"Nicky." She says between sobs.
"I'm here. I'm here Vallie." I say to her and she turns and starts to cry on my chest and I put my arms around her and memories of two kids running around the village come to me.
*Flashback*
I run with Vallie around the place when she falls in the grown and I get to her faster.
"Are you ok Vallie?" I ask her and she nods a no while sobbing and holding to her knee. She raises her dress and I see blood falling down her leg.
"It hurt Nicky."
"It hurts Nicky." She says to me and I hold her tight.
"It will get better, I promise. I will make it better." I say to her.
"Can you stay with me?"
"I will."
*Flashback*
"Tatia may I speak with you?" I say to my sister was she is getting some make up.
"What is it Isa?" She says to me and sees my look. "I see that it is important so I don't we sit."
"Of course." I say sitting in front of her and I start to get anxious.
"What is it that you have to tell me?"
"There is a man who wants to marry me." I say to her and she looks at me surprised.
"Really, that is good Isa, you are 22, and it is time for you to get married but who is he?"
"Elijah." I say almost as a whisper.
"Did you just say Elijah?" She says getting up and then turning to me. "When did it happen?"
"One week ago. He told me you too where no long together and I hope you are ok with it." I say to her not waiting to hurt my sister.
"We weren't a couple." She whispers but I can hear it. "I think I should be happy for you. You are a good person, you deserve someone good."
"So you aren't hurt?" I ask her.
"Of course not. I'm just surprised that he got over me so fast." She says the last part again as a whisper for me not to hear but I did listen to that.
I hope you all enjoy the chapter. Thank you for reading it.
