The plans had been set in motion and all is left is to tell Niklaus of his soon departure. The very reason why he is here right now in the study room at the quarter.
Elijah leans against the table solemn. His eyes trailing Niklaus as the hybrid pace erractically while throwing him sharp glances very once in a while. He had told niklaus of his plan to leave new orleans and that was like 30 minutes ago. The hybrid had been silent since, prowling in the room like a predator waiting for his chance to strikes.
He can hears the exciment of the french quarter floting into the rooom from the terrace. the tourist are rowdy excited there were talks about tonights festival. he tuned them out. it is not of importance since he wont be here tonight.
Elijah is not diillusion. He came mentally prepared for whatever it is going to be coming from Niklaus's mouth. His brother is very talented with words. He always know the word that cut the deepest.
Klaus huffs and rub his mouth absentmindedly as he stares at his brother. He could not help but panders on what could have brought this outcome.
Rebekah had just left days ago. Now elijah wants to leave too. What is this? Is this a ploy?
He can see that Elijah patience thinnning with every silent moments past between them. He saw how elijah subtly fusses with his coat finger defly playing with his cuff and miscellaneous item on the table. Klais know him well enough to know his habits. He does that everytime something bothers him and right now what bothering his older brother is his silence on the matter.
Klaus doesn't care. Let the silence torment him a couple more minutes. He deserves it for the clusterfuck of headache Elijah made him have at this every unfortunate moment.
He starts to pace again. It help his process of thought. He searches his minds for the memories of last couple days. He assumes he must have done something that Elijah disapproved. Elijah is blackmailing him for his compliance for whatever it is or perhaps he has explicitly went against elijah words.
He just needs to remember and asks for forgiveness. Pretends to be remorseful. He added as an afterthought.
He gets more agitated when he could not recall any specific moments that could lead to this absurdity that Elijah has unleashed upon him.
"Niklaus. Would you please stop pacing?" Elijah groused irtitatedly. Niklaus stops.
He supposed elijah has enough of his continued silent. Another thing that adds up to his worries. Elijah is a a patient man. for him to rushed this means he has more important things to take care off. Niklaus sneers what more urgent than their conversation right now.
Elijah fiddles with his left wrist cuff.He realises that he has been doing that for awhile now. He sighs and stop.
He wants this to be short. He wants to leave as soon as possible. He had made all the necessary arrangement.
Nothing of what Niklaus going to say will change his mind. His mind was made. This is what he needs. This is what he wants. Well, he is not entirely sure about that but Rebekah says he needed this and she is one hell of a smart women. He has better heed his sister advise.
Niklaus finally stops his pacing and faces him. Elijah takes in his clenched jaw and the hurt that clearly evident in his younger brother eyes.
Right. Let the drama begins, he thoughts. He is not being insensitive or anything but sometimes Niklaus just like to start drama for the heck of it. Everything is a game to him and Elijah is not in the mood for playing games.
