Bonnie did not come home, she was busy preparing to their trip to find the cure.
Malik was alone in the living room, covered by a blanket laying on the sofa in silence. His eyes were red, no tears left for him to cry.
His mind was flooded by images, memories. His feelings were all over the place.
His chaos was only interrupted when someone knocked on the door. The boy slowly turned around but then returned to his original position, not caring at all who wanted to find him.
"Malik? Come on I can hear your heartbeat, don't make me wait. Open the door" came the voice of Rebekah which surprised the boy.
Malik slowly got up and walked to the front door, opening it he didn't say a word, didn't even try to smile, he just looked at the original vampire silently.
"Hey. You alright?" asked Rebekah worried and tried to move closer but she was stopped. Looking around the door she looked back at Malik and asked gently. "Can I come in?"
Malik just nodded his head. It was enough for Rebekah to cross the threshold and to the warlock's surprise she embraced him gently. Once again he began to cry as he finally began to let his emotions go, and the two of them moved to the living room.
They sat down on the sofa and Rebekah looked at the boy gently and spoke quietly.
"Thank you, for mourning my brother... it means a lot to me."
"I wish I would have gotten there sooner" admitted Malik. "Kol was out of control but he seemed to listen to me. If only I could have..."
"It's not your fault" interrupted Rebekah immediately. "Don't forget he was acting out, endangering himself. You couldn't be with him all the time to save him from himself. Don't beat yourself up."
"I know that" spoke Malik and tried to smile. "My feelings are somewhat heightened and I don't know why... Anyway, you came here because you needed something, right?"
Rebekah kept eye contact with the warlock, however instead of asking for the favour she got up to leave.
"Yeah, but it doesn't matter."
"No, come on. Rebekah, I'm okay. If something's wrong, tell me."
"I wouldn't say something's wrong. I was just hoping you would accompany me to find the cure. I know they're your friends but I don't trust them. And after everything that happened I have some trust in you and Stefan."
Malik just let out a sigh and getting up from the sofa spoke gently.
"Let me get my stuff."
