The Vampire Diaries X Reader

Pajamas - Elijah Mikaelson x Reader

Elijah was away, he often went away with his brothers to do whatever original vampires do. You doubt yourself missing him, every time, you swore that after a century or two, it wouldn't be this way anymore. Clearly, not the case, you missed him so much, you swore when he got back, you'd tell him to never leave you again. You found yourself doing this often, he would leave, you would miss him, then in an attempt to feel closer to him, you would wear his clothes. You raided his closet the second he left, just to get his scent. You would find all his comfy loungewear. Which consisted of his pajamas, his t-shirts, and sweat pants, technically would also include jeans, but you mostly went into his pajamas. It was hardest to sleep without him, you shared a bed and when he left you often slept on his side, it wouldn't last forever. You put his pajamas on, his pajama pants are too big on you and yes, they have a drawstring, you just don't use it. They hang loosely on your hips, it was cute, it was a look, and you would wear them 24/7. If you had to go out, you would wear one of his shirts, if he was gone more than a week, you would start trying to stylize his dress shirts into cute outfits.

This particular week, Elijah had been gone a couple of days already, you hated when he left for more than a full day, it was going on day four, and you had just woken up. You eventually rolled out of bed and went downstairs for breakfast, Rebekah was in the kitchen with Kol. You walked in rubbing your eyes and you heard Kol snicker, probably because of your current outfit, Elijah's pajama pants, and a cropped tank top, you did throw a sweater on as you left your room.

"I see you miss our brother," Kol said as he put his hand on your shoulder. You went to sit on the bar stool at the kitchen island, you laid your head on the countertop, you were tired still.

"Of course, I miss him."

"Leave her alone Kol."

"After a century we all can tell you miss him." 

"Bite me Kol," he was of course teasing you; the entire family knew all about you raiding his closet when Elijah left, you heard him laugh as he left the room.

"When is he coming back, Rebekah?"

"Should be soon."

"I might die if he's not back soon."

"As much as I know that's an exaggeration, I also wouldn't be surprised."

"Well, it's a good thing I'm back then," it was Elijah, him and Klaus just returned. You and Rebekah turned your heads to look in the doorway, and the two of them stood there, you smiled and ran over to Elijah. You threw yourself at him, you jumped into a hug, wrapped your legs around his torso, and squeezed your arms around his neck. He squeezed you into him, he rubbed your back, and you immediately felt safe and warm again. You felt him kiss your cheek, Klaus chuckled next to you two, Elijah put you back on your feet on the floor, and you smiled up at him.

"Are you wearing my pajama pants?"

You just smiled at Elijah's question, "maybe"

"She does this all the time; I'm surprised you didn't know," Klaus said to his older brother with a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't judge me. It smells like you" you said more to Elijah, and he just pulled you into another hug.

"I'm surprised they fit you."

"Oh, they definitely don't," he laughed at your response, kissing your head again.
