Damon followed the mysterious woman to the ashes of the burnt down Gilbert house. She then walked in the ashes and knelt down feeling the ground with her eyes closed. "What are.." "Sh. I need the emotional energy" "Care to explain?" The woman sighed and stood up looking at the demanding vampire infront of her. "I'm a witch. I know how to break the mating bond." "So that means Elena and.." "Yes they are mated." "Ah so it's not.." "Nope. Anyway to break the bond I need the emotion of Elena. She felt her most powerful emotions on this very spot so I can collect them as power and use them against her." "She'll be fine though right?" "Yeah. It will snap the connection she holds with her mate and they will become unlinked and no longer need each other." "Alright what do I need to do?" "When Elena wakes up you need to bring her here." Damon nodded at the witch "I'll do it."
Rebekah looked around the Salvatore Boarding house awkwardly. Her brothers had left her alone with the youngest Salvatore. They didn't know that she still felt something towards Stefan and that kept her hate towards Elena fueled. The doppelganger may have stabbed her in the back, literally, but she also stole Stefan's heart which Rebekah desperately wanted. "So hows your little doppelganger?" She said with a hint of spite in her voice. "Well she's not my doppelganger besides how would I know? She's in the past with your brothers." "Ah so she's still alive then?" "Yes Rebekah. I'm pretty sure Elijah would be making sure of that anyway." "Typical for my brother to fall for yet another doppelganger." "Yes well she may be mated to him for all we know." "Or Klaus." Rebekah said then exchanged a glance with Stefan before shuddering.
"You don't seem upset about the whole mating thing." Rebekah said with a questioning tone after a pregnant pause. "I'm not all that upset. I mean I should be right? But I don't really mind it. I guess i'm just not as in love with her as I was before I turned my emotions off. I made amends and i'm over it. Damon wants her but it's ashame that even he wont win her heart." "Ashame? More like a good thing." "He deserves someone. Even if it's not Elena, he should have someone to spend eternity with." "Maybe he'll give up on the little bitch." "Yeah.. He really wont." Rebekah smiled amused. Of course Damon wouldn't give up, it's so typical. "What about you?" She questioned after another pregnant pause. He looked at her and smirked. "I'm sure i'll find someone." They began leaning in to each other.
"Ah what have we here?" Klaus said walking through the door and causing the two to jump apart. Elijah and Kol walked in behind him looking rather amused. "Are you kidding me? I have to sit here with all the originals? Amazing." Stefan said with a sigh. "We could always snap your neck like your brother did to me." Kol replied with a growl. Rebekah narrowed her eyes at the youngest Mikaelson boy and growled. "Leave him alone Kol. You may be back from the dead but that doesn't give you the right to hurt anyone." "Oh dear our sister has grown soft for the Salvatore. Besides I never died." "In my world you did." "Charming little sister." "Yes well it's always a pleasure to be around you so I might as well be charming." "Ah well in that case shall I give you a gift of a dead boyfriend?" Elijah sighed irritated at his siblings. "That is enough you two. Kol sit down and keep quiet or you can go home." "I choose home." Kol was about to walk out but Klaus grabbed him. "Sit. I'm not stupid Kol. You'll just go on a killing spree." "I'm hurt brother. You don't trust me?" Kol said with a fake hurt tone. "Nope so sit." "Nice." Kol replied and took a seat on one of the single chairs. "So what is it we do here?" Kol asked looking bored already. "We sit and we wait." Klaus replied smirking. Elijah and Klaus took a seat on the sofa opposite Rebekah and Stefan. Kol looked at them surprised. "That is outrageous!" "Get used to it." Stefan said leaning back into the sofa.
Elena ran a hand over he face then looked at her hand. She could clearly see the shed tears that now graced her hand wetting it. "No no no no." She chanted shaking her head. She wasn't suppose to cry when she didn't have emotions! She ran a hand through her hair then cupped her head as if she was on the verge of a mental breakdown. She slipped down the wall until she was on the floor cupping her head still. "They're not back. They can't be back! I don't want them!" She began hyperventilating and just couldn't stop the tears streaming down her face. She didn't even need air so why was she hyperventilating? Everything was crumbling around her and she couldn't stop it no matter how hard she tried. Her emotions were free and they were mocking her. All her walls keeping everything back just fell and all her pain came back. Her heart swelled like it was about to burst from the jolts it was receiving. The memories of Jeremy that she had pushed back pushed their way to the front of her mind causing her to cry even more. She had to keep herself from screaming because the last thing she wanted was to wake everyone. The realization of the torturing and the spell fell on her and she could no longer hold back the scream as it rippled through her throat.
Elijah was walking through the woods with Elena. The sun was high in the sky and it was casting a glow over the entire area. He sighed happily and turned to Elena who had tears streaming down her face. He narrowed his eyes at her and pursed his lips. "Elena?" "It's too much Elijah." "What's wrong?" "It's all coming back and it's too much!" "Elena it's okay" "No! Jeremy.." Suddenly she began screaming and everything went black.
Elijah sat up fully awake and could hear Elena screaming. He was out of bed and rushing in her room within seconds. She was against the wall screaming as if she was being murdered. He flashed over to her and knelt down in front of her cupping her cheeks. He forced her to look at him and her eyes were full of tears. "Elena?" She stared at him unable to speak because of her uncontrollable sobbing. He wipes the tears but they kept coming causing him to sigh and pull her into his arms. He rocked her gently. Klaus soon walked in looking unimpressed. His face changed when he saw the mess Elena was in. "What's going on?" He demanded in a gentle tone. Well as gentle as Klaus could go. "Emotions." Elijah only said causing Klaus to nod and leave quickly. He wasn't very good with tears.
When Klaus walked out Gwen walked in. He turned around and eyed her carefully not moving any further. "Will you please tell that doppelganger to be quiet?" "Leave Gwen she just got her emotions back." Elena was feeling really unwanted at that moment. Klaus kept wanting her gone and now this Gwen was barging it telling her to be quiet. It wasn't her fault. "Of course you're here with it." "Her names Elena now leave." Gwen was about to say something else but Klaus stepped in and dragged her out. "Go back to bed Gwen. She wont disturb you anymore." Klaus said warningly. Gwen scoffed and returned to her chambers. Klaus sighed with a shake of his head and returned to his room. Elijah sighed and looked at Elena who was trembling in his arms. Her sobs were filling the room and he felt useless. He couldn't do anything but rock her and try to calm her. Emotions were a very strict business and they hit hard.
Elena swallowed tickly and turned her head to meet Elijah's eyes. "T-they really w-want me gone huh?" "Of course not Elena" "Lies" She said with a small smile but the tears were still spilling out her eyes. "Don't let the emotions cloud you Elena. You're in control." Elena shook her head. The emotions were playing a game with her and she could tell. Everything she did were bringing regret forward but then everything with Jeremy brought distraught. Her emotions were mixing in her head and they were confusing her. She couldn't tell which emotion belonged where. It was like they were punishing her for hiding them away from the world. For trapping them behind an impenetrable wall. Well she wanted it to be impenetrable but clearly that's not how it was. She was fighting them constantly trying to gain control but it was no use. Elena sniffled and tried to stop the tears that were continuously flowing.
Elijah held her close for hours. The birds were now chirping and the tears had finally stopped. The emotions were still there and they were weighing her down but she had gained a little control. She couldn't lose herself in the blur of emotions. The silence they both shared was comforting to her. Normally silence was awkward but with Elijah it felt natural. Like words didn't need to be shared and they could just sit in this embrace comfortably. She liked it. It was as if this was meant to happen. She sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "I'm okay." "Really?" Elijah questioned unconvinced. "No but I will be." "Good don't let your emotions control you Elena." "I wont as long as i'm not alone" "I'll always be right here for you Elena." "Thank you really" Elijah smiled and nodded his head.
Elena was sat on her bed fiddling with the dress she was wearing. It wasn't as puffy as the others she had previously worn but it didn't make it more comfortable. Elijah was sat at the edge of the bed with his legs over the side. "Thank you for staying with me Elijah." "It's no problem Elena." "Also thank you for not leaving me and staying all night. I appreciate it." "Elena you don't need to thank me honestly. It's my pleasure." Elena smiled at him and he got up about to leave. "Wait where are you going?" She said standing up quickly. He turned to her and licked his lips. "I just thought you'd like some time to yourself" "No stay with me please. Sleep here if you like just don't leave." She sounded desperate in her own ears but she didn't care. She didn't want to be alone and she was comfortable around Elijah. "If that's what you would like." He took a seat on the bed again and she let out a sigh of relief before sitting down. She needed someone to help her through this emotional time.
