Fearless- A Matt Donavan Love Story

Chapter Eight/ I Let Them Die

"Ugh, what the hell happened?", I asked placing my hand on my neck.

Elijah must have knocked me out, because everything went dark and now I was in a dark room. It was a bedroom. Was I at the Mikaelsons?

I sat up, still having a pounding headache. Looking around, to find the door placed on the wall next to a dresser. I quickly hopped up and opened the door.

As I walked down the stairs an unfamiliar voice appeared. "Hello brother. Have you missed me?"

"Me as well brother?", another voice asked.

I could tell that was Rebekah. I wanted to rush down and say hello, but I knew not to interrupt.

"Elijah, what have you done?", a deep voice asked. The voice belonged to Klaus.

Another voice answered, the noble Elijah, "I brought our family back together."

"You missed one.", Klaus said, smarting off.

"Oh, brother. I'm here. Don't you worry.", a deep voice replied.

A family reunion? What was going on?

I began to walk down the stairs.

"I hear a heartbeat.", a voice announced.

"Yes, Kol. We have a guest at the moment.", Elijah told him.

"And I wasn't informed!?", Rebekah said loudly.

I walked down meeting the bottom step of the stairs. I walked past the front door, making my way to the living room, where the originals sat.

"I'm awake.", I said looking Elijah in the eyes, with anger.

"You must understand. I had to knock you out. You would have tried to help Nicklaus.", Elijah replied.

I tore my eyes from Elijahs and looked at the others. Klaus had a smile on his face, because of my actions. I looked over at Rebekah and ran up to her, engulfing her in a hug.

"Well, now I know I was right, to think Klaus put you back in there.", I said, glaring at Klaus, still hugging Rebekah.

I pulled away from the hug and looked at the two guys standing near each other.

"And who the hell are you two?", I questioned.

"Woah, darling. Don't be feisty.", one of them said.

"What's your name?", I asked.

"Kol Mikaelson."

"And yours", I asked the next.

"I'm Finn Mikaelson."

"So Klaus, these are the morons you told me about?", I turned toward Klaus.

"Watch it. I tend to not play nice.", Kol said.

"Am I supposed to be scared?", I asked, turning back to him.

Without answering he came speeding toward me.

"Motis", I stated, causing him to fly back.

"I wouldn't try anything if I were you.", I told him fiercely.

Standing up he said, "you're nothing compared to me."

"You might want to reconsider.", I said, before rubbing my thumb with my pointer finger.

He fell to the ground in pain, holding his head. Then I flicked my wrist and he fell lifeless. Before turning to face the Mikaelsons behind me,  I flicked my wrist again, sending Finn to the ground.

"I'm not in a very good mood to meet your unwanted family Klaus.", I said acting moody.

"This was all Elijah.", Klaus replied smiling.

I looked at Elijah and he looked down toward the ground. Rebekah let out a snort causing him to look back up.

"Why am i here?", i asked.

"The others. They want to kill Klaus and me, but most importantly you.", Elijah said.

"Th-they want to kill me?", I asked, almost crying.

"You let Elena die and Jenna.", Klaus said, making me feel worse.

"You killed them and I only helped because you're my best friend.", I snapped back.

"I'm your best friend?", Klaus asked, shocked.

I nodded, as if it wasn't obvious. I turned to look at Kol, who had just woken up.

"What the hell?", he said, standing.

"Play nice and I'll be nice.", I said before walking past him.

"Where are you going?", Elijah asked.

"I'm headed to make up to the people I care about.", I told him.

"Be safe. We want you in one piece.", Klaus smarted off.

***********************************************

After leaving, I drove to the grill. I know no one wanted to see me, but I felt Matt would be the least deadly about it. Alaric wouldn't hurt me, but I know that he wouldn't want to see me and he's actually family. I couldn't live seeing him hurt and angry with me.

I parked the car and walked into the grill. Matt was working behind the bar.

"Hey Matt.", I said hesitantly as I sat down.

"Hey.", he said.

"Are you mad at me?", I asked.

"Of course I am. You let Elena and her Aunt die.", he said looking down.

"I'm sorry. I'm truly am, it's just-", I began before he interrupted.

"Elenas alive. Bonnie brought her back, human.", he said.

I felt relief flow through me. I know they al would be mad at me, but maybe not as much now that she's back.

"Am I on the kill list?", I asked, desperate to know.

"No, we don't plan on killing you.", Matt said, almost shocked by my question.

"But, I was horrible and I let people die."

"We love you too much. Sure everyone is super pissed at you, but we won't kill you. I think you need to talk to Alaric, he's been worried about you. We never told him what you did.", Matt said abruptly.

"Really. I'm so thankful, but I can't lie to him.", I said.

"Then don't. Be truthful, but put it on him easy. He loves you too much, to lose you.", Matt told me.

I kissed his cheek quickly before heading to the car. I knew I had to see Alaric, before he had the chance to hate me.
