I'll keep waiting } Elijah x reader

Other side

I take Elijahs clammy hand and walk him up the concrete stairs, Hayley in the lead. I look at Elijah fear in my eyes. I could tell my eyes were pulling with water, I blinked hiding it. I squeezed Elijahs hand tighter he looked at me and I nodded at we opened the basement door. I took a deep breathe looking around at the circle with symbols across it with black sand. Spell books sitting on the table, and a small concoction in a bowl that Freya was preparing.

"Take his chains off and lay him in the middle of the circle." I did so his brown eyes gleaming at me. He shook his hands and sat in the circle.

I walked over to him sitting next to him for a moment. I talked quietly so no one could hear me unless the listened in. "Promise me you won't die. I can't lose someone else. Especially you, promise me." I looked up at him.

"You have my word." He took my head in his hand and kissed my head. I did a fake smile that quickly went away then I got up.

"Klaus." I said walking over to him. He looked up at me from what Freya was showing him.

"I can't watch this I'll be with Cami at the bar. If anything, and I mean anything goes wrong and the second the spell is done. Call me." He shook his head and I walked out the gates.

I sighed walking down the streets running my fingers through my hair.

Should I have left? I just can't watch him.

I walk into the bar Cami pouring a drink. "Hey!" She says her ton of voice so cheery.

"Hey." I sat down on a worn leather stool, the room smelling of cigarettes from people smoking. The bar wasn't super crowded today. She placed a drink in front of someone. It was a brown color with ice to the brim. She walked over to me placing her hands on the counter.

"What would you like?" She said. Every noise in the room felt louder. The tapping of Cami's finger's on the table. The fizzing of someone's beer, the wind outside. I squeezed my eyes shut and blocked out the noise.

"You ok?" She asked me.

"Yeah just- yeah I'm fine." Rubbing my face with my hands I let out a big sigh.

"I will have some bourbon, please." She walked over to grab a glass and the rectangular shaped container, with a thin straw type thing coming from the top. She pored the bourbon and I downed it.

"Rough day huh?" She said pouring another drink and I downed it instantly.

"I guess you could say that." I messed with my hands and didn't touch the next drink.

"Klaus, or Elijah I presume." She said to me I looked up. My face blank but tears filling my eyes.

"Elijah, he's dying and we could only find one cure. It could kill him, or fix him." A tear slowly falling down my cheek and I quickly wiped it away.

"Hey they are the Mikaelsons they survive everything." She puts her hand on mine and next thing I know I hear banging on the window. I turn around to see Hayley. Her face was frantic and in pure panic. I ran down the street into the compound.

We had to go by foot to not expose ourselves so it took a lot longer. "What happened?" I asked in panic not looking at Hayley.

"I- he doesn't have a lot of time." Tears sprung into my eyes I didn't care if I exposed myself I used my supernatural speed and headed to Elijah.

"Where is he?!" I yelled coming inside.

I turned around to see Elijah on the floor his siblings surrounding him. I pushed my way through. I knelt down tears flowing out of my eyes. "Please, you promised." Sobbing in between words. He looked miserable dark circles around his eyes skin and bones he was freezing.

"I know. Listen to me, you will be ok." I shook my head in disbelief tears falling harder. He took my hand sending waves of chills down my arms.

"No, no please don't leave me Elijah." I was shaking at this point and everyone around us was crying too.

"I love you." I kissed his lips and he took his last breathes. I cried falling onto his chest. I couldn't bare the pain. It hurt, like knifes being thrown at me. Bex placed her hand on me and I felt weak. I closed his eyes with my hand before getting up and going upstairs. I could see him like that anymore. I didn't go to my room though, I went to his. I pulled out a shirt out of his closet and put it to my face. Sniffing in the familiar sent. I cried turning the shirt damp. Before I went to my room and fell asleep.
