Alexandra stood in her room holding two different kinds of wedding dresses. Rebekah had dropped them off to her, saying that she had to try them on. Of course Alexandra wasn't going to, she wanted the first wedding dress on her to be her own wedding dress.

"Good morning." A voice behind her called out. Alex turned and smiled towards Elijah as he leaned against the door frame.

"Morning." Alexandra replied before turning back to the dresses. Elijah took slow strides into her room before standing beside her, looking at the dresses as well. "Your sister dropped them off, wanting me to pick one."

"That's defiantly sounds like Rebekah." Elijah stated with a chuckle. Alexandra nodded before picking one up and eying it before laying it back on the bed and picking up the other one.

"Which one do you think?" Alexandra asked before holding them both up again. She turned to face him, holding each to her skin. Elijah shrugged.

"I'm gonna need to see them on you." Elijah said. Alexandra signed before nodding. She took the first one into her bathroom and changed, the zipped had been on the side so she easily got it on. Alexandra took a deep breathe before walking back into the bedroom. Elijah stood from his place on her bed and smiled, looking at her up and down. "You look beautiful."

Alexandra blushed before doing a quickest twirl which made the bottom of the fabric flare out. Elijah chuckled. "I like this one." Alexandra said looking at herself in the mirror. Elijah smiled.

"You haven't even tried the other one on." Elijah stated. Alexandra turned her head and glared at him playfully. Elijah raised his hands in defense before Alex walked back into the bathroom to change into the other dress. This one was more difficult because the zipper was at the back. Alexandra held the strapless material to her chest and walked out.

"Can you zip me up please?" Alexandra asked. Elijah sucked in a breathe before nodding. He stood up and took long steps towards her. Alexandra turned, staring at Elijah's reflection in her floor length mirror. His finger tips grazed her back as he dragged the zipped upwards. Once he finished, Alexandra moved her hands and flattened down the material. "You were right...this one is better." Alexandra whispered.

"Would you like to go to the festival with me tonight?" Elijah asked, his nerves getting the best of him. Alexandra blushed.

"Are you asking me out on another date?" Alexandra asked. Elijah chuckled but nodded in response. "I would be delighted. Although I am not wearing these dresses." Alexandra stated. Elijah laughed lightly.

"I have to speak to Niklaus." Elijah whispered. Alex nodded and Elijah turned to leave.

"Elijah!" Alexandra called. He paused and turned back towards her. Alex gestured to the dress. "Do you mind?" Elijah cleared his throat before walking back behind her. His fingers again found the zip, pulling it slowly down, his knuckles moving against her skin giving her goosebumps. Elijah smirked when he noticed them. As he finished unzipping the dress he paused for a moment, letting his hand linger at the bottom of her back. Alex sent him a smile before he returned it and left quickly. Alexandra signed out a breathe she didn't realize she was holding before retreating to her bathroom to change again.
