"I do love you more than words can wield.."
I look at Elena and Elijah from the backseat. Elijah is sipping a blood bag, his color finally returning, while Elena parks the car in front of the Lockwood mansion.
Elena sighs before looking at Elijah, "You look better." She says.
She's not wrong. He got his hair under control and the dust has fallen off of him. He doesn't look like he had just been daggered for weeks.
"Where did you get the dagger?" Elijah questions Elena, not even sparing her glance.
"I'll tell you everything but we have to work together, Elijah." Elena says, trying to persuade the vampire.
I look at them both and sigh, "We need your word." I speak up from the back.
Elijah looks at her through the mirror, "Your ability to make demands has long past."
I take a long look at him before continuing, "We are not demanding. We're asking for your help and in return we'll give you ours to the extent that we can. We realize we fucked up by daggering you but can you blame us? Elena and I got kidnapped so we could be given to you. Which was traumatizing by the way. Don't be surprised when you get my therapy bill."
He gives a slight chuckle but tries to hide it.
"But we didn't know much about you besides you can't be killed , so we freaked out. But now we have a common enemy and the only way we can kill him is if we have you. We're clearly desperate for your help, so does that not show that we wouldn't risk back-stabbing you?"
Elena gives a nod, agreeing with what I said.
Elijah takes a moment, going over my words before responding, "You're good at persuading. Reminds me of someone I know. Why should I even consider this?"
"For the same reason you haven't killed us. You need our help to kill Klaus, and we need you." Elena lips purse.
Elena's phone vibrates from the front console, and three pairs of eyes fall upon it. Elena sighs before answering, putting the phone up to her ear. Elijah puts his finger on his nose in boredom.
"Where are you? Are you ok?" I hear the shouting coming from the phone.
"Calm down Stefan, she's fine." I draw out the last word, confusing Stefan.
"...Kora's there?"
Elena says a quick 'yes' not looking at anything in particular.
"Kora." He says in all seriousness.
"Yes?" I ask shyly.
"What did you guys do." He sneers at me through the phone.
"Sorry Stef, I pinky promised I wouldn't tell you."
