the outburst of hatred

-

"There is no way that actually happened." I said, amazed by the video Stefan was showing me.

"It did."  He insisted and chuckled to himself a little bit.

"And you caught it on video." 

My phone then rang, it was Elijah, I answered it and put it on speaker.

"Hey 'lijah." I answered.

"Hey, you have to come home now." He said in a rush.

"What's wrong?"

"Just come home, Niklaus." He replied and ended the phone call.

"That's weird." I noted out loud.

"It sounded urgent, maybe you should go."

I wanted to stay with Stefan longer, it was my birthday after all.

"Maybe not you could come with if you want."

"Getting to meet the family." He replied jokingly and I threw a pillow at his head.

"Are you coming or not?" I asked as I started to put my shoes on.

"Yeah I'm coming." He said pulling his shoes on and then we left his house and started walking to mine.

I never once realized how close his house was to mine because it felt like just a few minutes ago we left.

"This is your house "

"Yeah it's not as fancy as yours though." I said.

We walked into the house and that was the moment I wished I didn't bring Stefan or even come into the house.

"Hey Niklaus." She said and my body froze at the sight of her, my mother.

I looked at Elijah as if asking for help.

"Don't you want to give your mom a hug? I mean I know it has been awhile but I'm here now."

"It's been four years mom." I told her not trying to look at her.

"I know but I'm here and it's your birthday which I will never forgot."

" I told you it was today you didn't remember his or Kol's birthday."

"I have tried my best for this family and I will not have anyone shame me for what is good for me." She said as if she was in the wrong.

I quietly told Stefan that we were going to my room and left before she would notice.

"I see you've met her." Kol said.

"Yeah."

"Who is your friend? Is he a new one."  Kol questioned.

"We've been friends for a few months and his name is Stefan." I told Kol as I reached under my bed for some pizza that was in a container.

"How long has that been there?"

"A few hours." I told him, popping open the container.

" Give me a slice."

"What do I get out of it?" I said and gave Stefan a slice.

"Your brotherly love and affection." I laughed but still gave him a pizza.

We talked  for quite a long time and in between that time Stefan and I got to know more about each other until he had to leave.

Our mom was still here so Finn came up to give us our food.

"Happy birthday, sorry it's a crappy one." He said to us.

"It's okay." We had both said at the exact same time.

"Okay, good night guys."

"Night Finn." I answered.

He then walked out the room, closing the door.

"Here's to another shitty birthday." Kol mused.

"At least we're fifteen now."

We went to sleep shortly after.

-

"Niklaus sweetly, please say something to me." My mother veged me but I just ignored her and went to grab my lunch for school.

"Niklaus, listen to me. I came home for you and you brothers and your sisters because I care about you guys and I love you."

"Leave me alone." I said as I went to get my shoes by the couch.

"Don't you trust me. There used to be a time that you did and now you are throwing it all away like a."

"Shut up." I yelled towards her and then Elijah, Finn, and Freya were walking in the room.

"I have a right to talk to my own child who is someone who should not yell at me like I'm some stranger." She lectured, as if she had the right.

" I don't care about you. I don't care what you think, I just wish that you would go away and die." I yelled as I felt myself starting to cry.

"I birthed you and this is how you treat me like some old hag who doesn't deserve any type of love "

"No this is how I treat someone who left me on my eleventh birthday without a single call or card. This is how I treat someone who doesn't deserve any love because she left her kids with a father who couldn't give a crap about me. About us."

My chest was starting to feel heavy and my breathing was irregular. The tears had already fallen down while I was shaking and shouting. But it felt more like a memory than me having just said it seconds prior.

I did notice how Elijah was looking at me though.

"I am not a bad person, just someone who was wronged by your father, don't you get that."

"And I wasn't. I had to watch him care about the rest of my siblings while I didn't get shit in return because he hated me so much. And I wished for years that you would do something to stop him but all you did was leave and only come back when you needed us so I couldn't care less about how he treated you."

"Niklaus." She tried as if she was too stunned to face the truth.

"I think you should go." Elijah said and I really hoped she listened to him.

My prayers were answered once she left.

"Niklaus, are you okay?" He asked me softly,  moving closer to me.

" 'lijah." I whispered before my feelings took over my body.

He was then next to me holding me as if I would break, and honestly I probably would, but I had to get to school.  I leaned into his touch as I cried into his chest and he moved us over to the couch.

As much as I hated crying in front of people I sure was crying in front of people a lot.

I fell asleep soon after this.

While I was sleeping mother came to get her stuff and leave again.

I wasn't complaining though
