Elijah's POV:

I gently opened the door, expecting Rebekah and Hayley to be asleep, but instead they ran straight towards me and Mia. I set her down on her feet and Rebekah tightly hugged her.
"I'm so glad you safe." She said in a relieved tone. I smiled as I watched my sister embrace Mia. Rebekah hadn't really cared about many people recently, other then a young man called Matt. Mia turned to face me and smiled.
"I've only ever come through this door twice, and both times you've carried me in." She said, gesturing to the door. We all laughed, when Niklaus walked through the door.
"What did you do to Marcel?" I asked.
"We had a bit of a fight." He replied. I was confused, but Niklaus just smirked.

Klaus' POV:
*flash back*

As Marcel lead us towards a big hall, I feared that what we were about to see, wasn't going to be pretty. He pushed open the door and Elijah immediately ran over to Mia. I soon followed and my mouth hung open in shock. I watched as my brother desperately tried to awaken her, feeding her his blood. I don't usually care about people, unless they effect me and my family somehow, but I cared about Mia. Her story about her parents touched my heart. She was so young, yet all she seemed to do was suffer. I spun around and shouted at Marcel. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
"She killed 13 of my guys, she deserves to suffer." He quickly replied.
"Why didn't you fight back?" Elijah asked Mia.
"Because he threatened to kill Sophie."
"Why did you let him hurt you? She's just a witch, let her die." I moaned.
"What, and let Hayley die to?" She asked. I felt tears begin to form in eyes, as I dragged Marcel out of the hall.

When we got outside, I threw him on the floor. He groaned in pain, before quickly standing up and running at vampire speed, but I quickly blocked him off, by punching him as he ran. He did a half flip and landed on his back. I went over and put one foot on his chest.
"Don't mess with hunters or originals."
"How was I supposed to know you were besties with the girl?" Marcel argued back at me. I pressed down harder on his chest.
"Just because she killed 13 of your vampires, doesn't mean you can hurt the poor girl. She's a young hunter, so most of the time, she can't control herself." I replied.
"Why are you sticking up for her?" He asked in an angry tone.
"Well, my brother seems to like her," I smirked and bent down to whisper to him. "Also, it's quite handy having a hunter around, if you know what I mean." Marcel looked confused, but I wasn't going to explain to him. I was done talking. I lifted up my foot and pulled him up by the collar. "Sorry mate, but I don't really feel like having you follow me home." I scoffed at him, before snapping his neck. I watched his limp body fall to the hard ground and ran off back home.


Elijah's POV:

I went into the living room and sat next to Mia, looking at her, while she looked down, playing with her fingers. I smiled to myself, before asking her a question.
"How do you feel now?"
"Alright, thank you. How do you feel?" I chuckled lightly and she smiled at me.
"I'm fine thank you, but I'm not the one who lost loads of blood." I stated. Mia looked back down at her fingers. I pulled her hand closer to me and gently held onto it. She looked up at me with her gorgeous, brown eyes.
"I will always protect you. Whatever happens to you, I'll always help you and make sure your safe." Mia continued to look into my eyes. "You have my word on that." I added assuringly. She smiled weakly at me and I returned it. We had a moment of silence, just looking at each other, but it wasn't awkward. It was a confutable silence.

"Why is the window smashed?" I heard Niklaus yell, breaking the silence and making Mia turn away, breaking our eye contact.
"Marcel broke it. That's how he took Mia." I explained.
"You mean to tell me that Marcel knows where we live?" Niklaus said angrily, as he walked quickly into the living room. I nodded my head and he sighed loudly, pacing anxiously around the room.
"Where's Mia going to sleep? She can't sleep in her room, it's to dangerous." My brother said worriedly. A thought popped into my head as I smiled to myself.
"Mia can sleep with me. That way, if Marcel comes back, I can protect her."
"Sounds like a plan." Niklaus said as he left the room.
"If that's okay with you?" I asked Mia.
"Yeah, that's fine. Thank you." She said sweetly.

We made small talk for a while, before deciding to go to bed. I walked into my room to see Mia tucked in bed. I laid down next to her and looked into her gorgeous eyes.
"I've only been here two nights, and both nights I've said this... thank you for saving me." I laughed and Mia quietly giggled.
"It's always a pleasure." I replied.
"Goodnight Elijah." She whispered.
"Sweet dreams." I said, before turning off the bed side lamp.
