A Kind Girl

Crying wolf

And the consequences came. The rain was a vicious creature sucking the life out of poor Elizabeth.

While she almost drowned in her own mucus, Rose got bit by a werewolf and died, Caroline got kidnapped, but Elijah and his witches saved her. Elizabeth got a bit better. Damon took care of her when he was not busy and Elijah was there when he left. He did not want her to be alone in that state.

She was better. Still a bit loopy and had a cough, but conscious most of the time.

She was planning on staying in her fluffy pajamas and watching Disney movies, while Elijah had a tea party with the Lockwoods and Damon, she was not sure what he was doing. He had a bad few days when Rose died, he did start caring for her.

.......

Carol and Elijah were talking about his 'research' as Damon walked up to them,"What a surprise. Elijah, I want you to meet Damon Salvatore. His family is one of mystic falls' founding families."

Damon stared into his eyes,  trying to assert dominance. Why did his daughter have to like this suit guy? He knows they have been talking when they thought he wasn't at home. "Such a pleasure to meet you."

They shook hands as Elijah said,"No. Pleasure's mine."

........

Elijah and Damon went to Richard's office to finally talk. Damon does not know how to talk to daughter's almost boyfriend. This was never in the plan. Get daughter. Raise daughter.  Make sure said daughter stays alive. Run off daughter's boyfriend. It might be a bit difficult. He's unkillable.

"What can I do for you, Damon?"

Damon replied, not to happy to be in his company,"I was hoping we could have a word. What are your intentions with my daughter? I know you sneak into my house, after you two think I left."

Elijah let out a sigh. He is not used to needing to impress the parents. What if Damon forbade them to be together? Both of these men, were used to blood and death. Now, they are just about the most awkward people to live.

"I like your daughter. And would like to continue to get to know her and grow our relationship if she wants to." Damon nodded his head sightly.

"Does she know?"

Elijah was confused as what he meant. "Does she know what?"

"That you are her soulmate."

"How do you know that?"

Damon run his hand thought his hair and replied,"After you got shot in the hand and staked, I noticed the exact scars on her hand. It was not as prominent. But since you are alive and healed , it went away. Which brings me to another question, if you die, will she?"

"I haven't told her yet, I was waiting until she was better. According to the research I did on soulmates, if one dies, the other soon follows. But I give you my word, that I will protect her. And if something were to happen to me, my witches will protect her."

Damon took in his words and warned him,"I think Stefan, John Gilbert and Bonnie are planning something. They haven't told me , but I think it has something to do with you. I am guessing the sacrifice will continue."

"Unfortunately yes, but my witches are working on a way to make sure Elena stays alive after."

They both awkwardly left and Elijah went to Ellie's house and Damon went to the Boarding house in need of a drink after that meeting.

Elijah's pov

I found Ellie in a good condition. For once not in pajamas and in casual clothes, eating lunch as she watch a movie. I sat next to her and I swear her eyes sparkled when she saw me. I would think so.

"How was the tea party?"

"As boring as any event in Mystic Falls." She gave an adorable laugh that brought a smile to my face. "Me and your dad talked for a bit and theirs things I have to tell. I just wanted to wait for a bit before I told you."

She put down her plate and took hold of my hands, calming my nerves.

I explained more about my family and about the real curse. And how it happened and how Nik's werewolf side was locked by a curse and needed to be broken by the ritual. And after she listened to that information, I gently told her about soulmates. And how she's mine.

She looked at me with shocked eyes and she let go of my hands. Not quite believing this.

"That's alot. Can I just have a few days to think about all this? And just take it all in."

I nodded my head,"Of course. I am not pressuring you into something. Take all the time you need to digest this."

I quietly left her house as she stayed on the couch. I hope this was not to much for her.
