Elejah Always

Still Falling For You

A few hours after the dinner with the Mikaelson siblings

Elena and Elijah said their goodbye's to the rest of the Mikaelson siblings and Sophie. This was the most fun evening they had for a long time. And that was the truth for all of them.

They entered their apartment.

"Oh, I really see now that we all had such great fun together"- Elena said-"but so much bickering, too. And you never ease on Rebekah- it was really tough growing up with the three of you."

"I am not that bad, am I?"- Elijah said half-jokingly seeking some compensation.

"Well, you have defended her and didn't tease her like Klaus and Kol did."- Elena said taking her high heel shoes off.

"So, you had fun?"- Elijah asked.

"I did." Elena confirmed with a smile."This was a good idea. Now we have to find someone good for Rebekah"

"Oh, I don't think I will do any match-making there. She finds fault with every guy I introduce her to. Ahm- I need some water- shall I get you something" Elijah said.

"No. I am good. Ok- I will go change" Elena waved as she turned around.

"Right-" he muttered.

Elena nodded a little and trailed off to what was her walk-in closet. A room she had specially decorated for all of her clothes. And next to hers was a smaller room, that was Elijah's walk-in closet. And she walked in it. There were all of his designer suits, shoes, trainers, shirts, T-shirts,jeans, a section of different casual jackets. Everything was perfectly organized. She brushed her hand over his suits.

"Elena-" he called out from the living room.

"Upstairs" Elena shouted back.

He came up - seeing her sitting on the little modular seat.

"Hey- what are you doing here?"

"I just walked in. Kol was joking earlier about how many suits you own." Elena gave a reason why she was in his walk- in wardrobe.

"You have always said you loved my sharp look. Plus I worked on Wall-Street. Suits obligatory. And when we re-designed your walk-in. It was clear that my stuff will not fit into yours- so we built one for me." Elijah explained.

"Do you think of going back to work now that I - you gave up everything"

"I couldn't - I couldn't concentrate on work. So, I just left. It's not a big deal. We are financially secured-" Elijah reassured her.

"I was not thinking about that" Elena said."I just feel... I feel bad that it had disrupted your life."

"Elena- you are my life. Ok, this sounds like I have nothing else in this world. I do. And I loved making deals. The stock market is a great challenging thing- but...it just- nothing made sense. Work didn't make sense." Elijah sat down next to her."I can't explain."

"You don't have to." Elena said.

"And you should not feel bad about it- or anything- we are not really sticking to our deal- about not going into the sad stuff" Elijah reminded her about the pact they made.

"Yeah. I'm not great at keeping deals? Or?" Elena rubbed her feet a bit. "So not used to walking in high heels yet. Not that I walked long."

"Ok. I'll run you a bath." he suddenly stood up.

Elena stood up, too thanking him for the suggestion. He went into their en-suite and she went to her walk-in to finally undress. She put the shoes away in its area. Took off her necklace, she then tried to open the zip on her dress and in went half way and then it got stuck. No matter how much she tried to move it- it didn't budge. Then she felt like her hair got caught in it and she went to look for him to help her out.
