Our Secrets

Could this be it?

Elena's Point of View:

I groaned and woke up slowly, before getting up. I was a few months pregnant. I take a shower, before wrapping a towel around me and looking at myself in the mirror. It was only a few months until I get to hold my child in my arms. 

"Not long darling." I felt arms wrap around me, before feeling Kol bury his head in my neck. 

I smile and lean my head back on his shoulder, "I know. I'm so happy. And I am glad you're the father."

Kol smiled and kissed my neck before kissing my head, "And I am glad you are the mother. I can't wait for this child..." 

I frowned and turned around before caressing his face softly, "What's wrong?"

Kol shook his head, "Nothing, everything's fine." 

I gave him a look, "You can tell me..." I reassure him. Surely there was nothing wrong? What could be wrong?

Kol sighed and went and sat on the bed, before leaning his head in his hands. I followed and sat beside him before taking his hands in mine and keeping them close.

"Its just that...I don't know what to do as a father...I've never had a proper father. Mikael was abusive and angry...and I wasn't the most...well lets just say I was never well behaved since I was turned. You changed me, in a good way of course. You let me be who I am without constantly telling me off and controlling me. But I am just scared I will mess this up, and not be a good father for our child. You had Jeremy so you have some experience..." Kol trailed off tearing up.

I lift his face gently and wipe away the tears forming in his eyes, "You listen to me Kol Mikaelson. You are nothing like Mikael. You will never be like him. You are you. I have no idea how to be a mother. We will learn together. We will make mistakes together. We will do everything together. I know you will be a perfect father, a perfect father for our child." I take his hand and place it on my tummy, "And I know our child knows that already." 

Kol smiled and rubbed my tummy a little before kissing my head and leaning his head on my shoulder, "What do you fancy doing today?"

I smiled and wrapped my arms around him, "How about we go for a small walk along the beach, and go out for lunch. Then we can come home and watch movies?"

Kol nodded and smiled, "It sounds perfect darling."

I groaned getting up, knowing it wasn't the morning just yet. Why do I get up this early? I sigh softly, before going downstairs to get myself a drink of water and sitting on the couch. 

SMASH 

I gasp and turn around before getting up. 

"Hello?" I call out. I know no one was going to answer. I walk around, silent making sure I wasn't hearing things. I go to the where the smash came from and kneel down finding my favourite vase in pieces. 

WHOOSH

I gasp in shock and fear before turning around before being knocked to the floor. I wince and get up holding my stomach.

"Kol...? Please say thats you..." I tear up, in fear. I back away heading towards the stairs again, before seeing a figure appear infront of me.

"Hello, Elena." I didn't recognise the voice, but he raised his hand, which was holding a knife tight before stabbing me in the stomach. I screamed in pain, and cried, holding my tummy.

I gasp and sit up, breathing heavily. 

Kol groaned beside me, reaching for my hand. I squeezed his hand lightly, "Go to sleep."
