Elejah Always

Tearing me apart

Elena's flashback

"Where is the money?" shouted at Elena as the other one grabbed hold of her with his arm around her neck.

"Take what you want. Here's my bag. Just don't hurt me please" Elena gasped looking horrified but thinking how she would kick the goon off. So she tried stomping with her heal on his foot and he screamed and Elena thought she got free, but the other one got hold of her and now kicked her in the stomach.

Elena fell on the floor gasping for breath. He got hold of her hair now pulling it.

"This is not a game. We don't want your few bucks. Jeremy Gilbert double crossed us! So where is the money? And don't tell me you don't know. You were tight. You look after him. We know that! SO TALK!"

"I really don't know. Please-"

The man was getting really angry and now slapped her across the face as he pulled her up to sit down.

"Talk! That scum played us all". He slapped her again. Blood was now running out of her nose and mouth.

"I don't know-" Elena murmurred.

That only angered the man and now he punched her hard.

"That is what I remember" Elena said looking into nothing as Elijah held her hand wishing so hard this was not the memory that would float out first.

"I am sorry" he said gently pulled her by the chin to face him.

There was a numb look in her eyes, "I had a surprise for you that night"

Elijah thought her heart would explode as his knew she was going to mention the baby.

"I did a test that afternoon. I was pregnant" she continued in her numb state.

Tears now streamed down his face and as he wiped them off with his palms he nodded. "They told me. There was nothing they could do to save it"

The ER felt as cold as a tomb. There were people, doctors, nurses buzzing around, but the of them felt like the whole place emptied.

Rebekah who stood not far from the examination area, stood silent witnessing all that Elena had said, cried as well. Klaus walked in putting his hands on his sister's shoulder nudged her a little to get ouy of there.

"He needs me," Rebekah said making Klaus move her arm off of her now," I have gone through it with Elijah once before"

"They need all of us now" Klaus stressed out."Go and wash your face. Then find Kol. I don't know where both Sophie and him are not answering any of my calls. Can you do it?"

Rebekah nodded.

"Good. I have sorted things out with mother and father." Klaus informed her.

"I should have known that Mason Lockwood would stir shit up" Rebekah said.

"You know the Lockwoods. Arch enemies never sleep." Klaus said.

"Caroline?" Rebekah turned to her brother quizzically furrowing her eyebrows.

"She left." Klaus said shortly. It was clear that this was one subject he didn't want to discuss further.

Rebekah now took her phone and dialled Sophie. Klaus went into the examination area.

***

Elsewhere, Kol went away from the Ball oblivious to Mason's clash with Elijah, sending a message to Sophie that he needed to slip away.

And Sophie left shortly after the message being a nervous wreck eversince she found out he was doing the undercover job.

At home, she listened to all voice mails Klaus and Rebekah sent. Her heart was in turmoil, but she swore she would keep quite till it all ends.
