Falling In Love With Elijah Mikaelson

Chapter 49

"Isabelle please-"

"NO, YOU FUCKING THREATEND ELENA TO TRY AND GET DAMON TO LEAVE ME ALONE!" I threw a plate at him before I knew it I was pinned to a wall, tears in my eyes. "Elena and Jeremy are my family! I don't threaten yours anymore, don't threaten mine!"

Elijah held me still as tears fell from my eyes. My anger causing me to cry making him shush me gently before wiping away the tears. "I wouldn't harm her, I only want him to stop calling you. It's been contant with our break from everything, I'm sorry." He stepped back as I looked down. "I won't threaten her again just please calm down."

"Elijah...their all I have left. Only two family members, you have Klaus, Rebekah and Kol. I...I know Elena and Jeremy aren't blood related like yours are but their still my cousins. Don't... Don't ever threaten them." I walked past him and to the kitchen before finishing the food with Kol.

"...Sorry he done that and sorry you had a fight." Kol was being nice as he helped make dinner. He set the plates before helping me carry it to the living room. I sat on the couch, Elijah sat next to me but I moved to the floor. "Give her time, Elijah."

"I'll sleep down here, you can have the bed." I shook my head at his words before looking at him.

"No. Elijah you have the bed, Kol has the couch, I'll be going on a walk. I won't forgive you so easily like I have in the past, Elena has been through a lot of shit-"

"So have you-"

"Because of Klaus! And you helped him hid it over, my dad was killed by a wolf, my mother in a burning fire. Natural ways of death for a family that gave birth to a powerful creature." I put my plate down before getting up and walking to the door. "I'll be back about midnight, do not come after me or watch me."

I left the house before walking about and going to the ocean. I kept hearing my siren side say 'forgive' but my witch side said 'he'll do it again.' I groan as the sky grew darker as the sand finally hit my feet. I walked to the ocean before looking at the sky. Stars slowly coming into view, the sound of the waves moving and hitting rocks. It was relaxing, I sat down and crossed my legs before closing my eyes and looking down at the sand.

"I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you."

I felt tears fall as I spoke softly, bearly above a whisper. "What do I do now?" Just as I opened my eyes I felt my phone ring. I answered it calmly wiping my tears away. "Hello?"

"Isabelle, it's Elena. Damon told me what happened...You and Elijah gonna be ok?" Her voice was soft, I giggled slightly before letting my sadness show.

"What do I do Elena? He threatened you and I...I feel so bad for yelling at him for it but at the same time I don't. I'm so confused." I got up and walked about the beach, trying anything to break the feeling of needing to go back to him.

"...You love him don't you?" I answered yes, and she continued. "Then go back to him. I'm okay, well as okay as I can be with Klaus still here."

"If he hurts you just send me a text ok? And if you need me to go home, send me a picture of you and Jeremy saying 'we're fine', ok?"

"I'll remember that. So, Damon doesn't need to worry about Elijah hurting you?"

"Hurting me?" I stood still before sighing. "He won't hurt me, he loves me and I love him. If I...If I get hurt I'll tell you but I do have good news." I looked at the ocean as she asked what it was. "I'm gonna visit, alone. Elijah and I need a little time apart so we both can sort through this and I will be returning to him but I thought I'd go to Mystic Falls tomorrow to visit. Is my room still there?"

"Your things are in my room, I can't wait to see you!"

"Shhhh, don't tell anyone, this is a secret."

"Oh, sorry!" We both laughed before I felt complete calmness. "Um, Isabelle...Damon told me you were acting different, more protective. You ok?"

"Just miss you, cousin. But when I visit, I'll need to tell you and the girls something."

"What?"

"Nope, not until I visit. I need to head back, almost midnight." We both said goodbye and I went home.

I walked into the house to see Kol on the couch sleeping with a blood bag next to him. I grabbed a blanket and put it over him before cleaning up the blood bag, more was on the counter and Elijah was asleep sitting on a chair. I put the bags in the bin before tapping Elijah to wake him up.

"Isabelle?" He looked at me before smiling softly. "I'm sorry-"

"No more apologise. I'll forget it happened longs if I can be by myself for a few days. I wanna visit Elena, Klaus is scaring her." He nodded and got up before hugging me. I hugged back and pulled one of his hand off me so I could kiss his cheek. "Let's go to bed."

He picked me up and carried me to our room before setting me down gently and grabbed sleepwear. I got changes and got rid of the make-up before climbing in next to him, he was faster at chainging than me. I took my time because my sides still hurt. I cuddled into him before pecking the corner of his lips and closing my eyes, letting sleep take over.

I felt his hands wrap around me as he turned on his side to hold me close just as everything faded from me. Sleep, it didn't feel right to sleep with him after he threatened Elena but we made a deal. I just have to move past it, I can move past it right?
