Jade's POV:

Eliana dragged me away and took me to a room upstairs. She just embraced me in her arms while I was crying.

"It's gonna be okay." She whispered.

She pulled back and we heard a knock on the door. I quickly wiped my tears and Eliana opened the door to see it was Elijah. She looked at me and left. He came and removed his tuxedo jacket and hung it on the door. I went into the bathroom and changed into my nightdress and I lay on the different side of the bed. He eventually lays on the bed and I was alarmed and straightened my back. My stomach was aching as I felt this knot in my stomach. Niklaus's words were echoing in my years about going easy on me tonight. I was facing the other side and He noticed me and said, "You don't have to worry about anything." I got up quickly.

"I wasn't worried about anything, Heh," I said. He smiled and scoffed.

"Okay." I laid back on the bed and my back was facing him.

"You have scars on your back." He said and I quickly turned around.

"And they look fresh. What happened?" He said with a worried look.

"Nothing," I said but he gave me a serious look.

"Dad happened," I said and rolled my eyes. He turned me back seeking an explanation.

"Okay, I ran last night and one of Dad's men found me," I said.

"Do they hurt?" He said.

"Not anymore," I said, and then he fell asleep but I couldn't. I got up and picked up my phone and a diary went into the farthest room from there Luckily, it was the gust room. Boy, the house is huge. Mikaelsons are Richie rich.

I went to the balcony and sat down just looking at the stars thinking what's next. Plugged in my headphones and the song 'right where you left me' hit me. God, Taylor Swift is talented. It was so nicely written and then I found 'All too well' It was even better. I grabbed my diary and drew in it. With each song chanting in my ears, I felt that space in my heart. I felt that I am never gonna have someone even similar to relate to the song and with tears falling from my eyes thinking if mom was alive, she would've been so happy to see me in a wedding dress and would probably save me from this mess too. I hear footsteps behind me and I turned around to see a gorgeous blonde woman. She gives me a puzzling look and I quickly wipe my tear.

"Hey."

"Hii, I am Rebekah."

"Oh, the wedding was organized by you? god, it was beautiful. Nice work."

"Hehe, thanks. couldn't sleep?"

"Um yeah. Just missing someone really important."

"Hm. a boy?"

"Oh. I wish." I scoffed.

"Why are you so sad?"

" Nothing."

"Come on. Tell me."

"It's just I always had this dream ever since I was a little girl. When you read those fairytales and watch those silly romantic movies and when you're 13 and staring at the stars. looking at couples together and picturing yourself with your prince charming. Practice how to slow dance with you're largest teddy bear imagining yourself with your happily ever after.  Imagine yourself falling in love, him asking you out on prom, proposing with a room filled with roses where he hung up your pictures and the moments you spent together. Thinking you would just squeeze his hand while watching a horror movie and he'll wrap his arms around you when you sleep. Spending Christmas with his family and teaching our kids how to make Christmas cookies. Wearing silly Halloween costumes and cooking together for Thanksgiving. It's just I know it's immature and silly but----

"It's not silly." She said. "It sounds lovely. But you know you can still do these things with Elijah. This may not be a perfect start for a love story but what matters is a happy ending."

"I guess you're right," I said.

"Why don't you get some sleep now?"

"Yaa. Hey, he is still asleep right?"

"Well, he saw you here and told me to check up on you and I can't keep a secret."

"Oh god, he must think I'm pathetic."

"No. Believe me, my brother is not like that."

"Fine."

I went into the room and saw Elijah pretending to be asleep. I look at him and scoff and then lay beside him. He looks at me with pitiful eyes.

"You know I used to be a lot of fun, I swear." I saw which made him laugh.

"Good night."

"Night."

He fell asleep. I could see the soft moonlight on his face. Oh, look at those biceps! So sexy. I mean he is kind of like Barney from how I met your mother but the difference is he is not a playboy. I mean maybe, it can work? I should sleep. I can barely keep my eyes open but I just can't get enough of his gorgeous face.
