13 Reasons Why ↣ Mystic Falls (Elena Gilbert

viii. Elijah Mikaelson

"Hey. It's Elena, again. I know you're tired of listening to me and I'm tired too. Tired of talking, tired of living. Anyways, this is not about my complaints as a depressed girl. Have you ever felt too attached to someone or too dependent on someone that once they leave, you begin to hate everyone? Yeah, like trust issues. They even start to hate you for not standing by their side, at the time."

"Holy insecurity issues." Klaus thought. As a girl who had sacrificed herself countless times to ensure the safety of the people who hated her, he didn't expect her to be this insecure.

"Elijah, I know you hate me and there's no need to keep it from anyone. At some point, everyone hates their friends. But your hatred was different, I knew it. And for what it's worth, I'm sorry. I attached myself to you. That I depended on you to help me with your brother. I'm sorry I made that stupid deal with you. That I believed in you being my only hope, welcome to your tape. Elijah Mikaelson. "But what I didn't realize was that you would end up, betraying me just like everyone else while you saw me as a friend. You were like an older brother to me.
But you, you shunned me and even though you betrayed me and you gave me the best advice. You told me my compassion is a gift. To carry it with me, as you will carry your regret. Remember that you helped me. You brought light to my life. And even though it wasn't enough to save me from drowning. You helped. Always and Forever, 'Lijah. Always and Forever."

Elijah sighed, heavily and filled with guilt. The audio stopped, making the Scooby Gang believe that it was finished. But when Caroline decided to get up, it showed that there was still another 10 minutes, ready to play. They had no other choice but to play if they wanted to know what and who caused Elena to go off the edge and take a bunch of her medication pills and kill herself.

"But I want you to know that you're really a reason, Because of a certain you were also one of the only people apart from your brother, the way you saw me from your past the doppelganger complexion. Katerina. Someone who treated me as my own person and took the time to know me better. But then I decided to open up, you thought it was something that wasn't serious at all. Well, I think that me being dead isn't at all serious, right Elijah? "Oh Elena, you're overreacting, Klaus will never come after you." Yeah, totally because of my depression, my anxiety, my constant worry, and fear are all just things I put in my head. I guess I'll never have the closure that I want. But I don't want you to feel like I'm laying this big burden, I'm not. Tell that to everyone on these files that killed me. And I hope you're okay over there. With your siblings. "

Elena's sigh brought tears to the eyes of Elijah. He hated the fact that he was one of the people who drove Elena to where she is now. Six feet under the ground. Rotting in her grave. He hated how he could have apologized, for treating her this way, for shunning her. Unfourtantley, he was too busy cleaning up after his brother. The one who had gotten him out of the coffin, defied the Salvatores to meet up with him, the one who was there for him. Who didn't judge him for his past.

It was Elena who proved to Elijah that Katerina never loved him. That she was just using him. It was Elena who proved to Elijah that the doppelgangers weren't all selfish and vindictive. That villains are made not born.

It was then that the Scooby Gang realized that Elena Gilbert's life was a never-ending funeral. That every person who she loved would hurt her, betray her or ignore her. She was the girl who sacrificed everything and was never the one.

And Elijah realized that the worst day of loving Elena was the day he lost her.
