Still at the restaurant still at table, still not uttering anything in the form of words, Elena looks at Elijah - whatever she says is unnecessary as she knows he
listens to her heart. And her heart jumps uncontrollably. It has always done so in his presence. It had a will of its own when he was concerned. She cannot hide that seeing him didn't shake her to the very core of her being, even more so because this time it was the matter of his own heart spilling openly what was suppressed.

She would lie if she was to say she never felt anything for him. His Willoughby kiss left her wondering what if many times afterwards, but he left and everything that followed in her life shut it out.

Elijah now says what her heart murmurs-
"This came out of the blue. Out of nowhere. Even though it is not really so. And  I have no right to come here disrupting your life with this after everything that had happened, acting selfishly-"

Elena now continues-
"But had enough of mistakes- being lost-"

Her words always direct. Always to the point. There is silence between them again. 

Come to me and I shall give you peace

Come to me lay down your head
Touch the rain and feel the summer breeze
Say the things we've never said
I will keep you from the world outside
I will never let you go
I will be the thing you dream about
Come to me and you will know


I adored you before I laid my eyes I laid my eyes on you
l'amour toujours I just can't take my eyes can't take my eyes off you


Follow me to where the rivers meet
Tell me I belong to you
Feel the grass crumble beneath your feet

Set me free and let me loose
Take my heart for it is yours to keep
Shackle my spirit to you

You are mine and mine eternally
Come to me you always knew  

Elena gets up and says-

"You knew, but you left" and she walks away from him into the restaurant kitchen completely shaken. She holds her hand on her stomach trying to steady herself. Tears flow now down her face.

Yes, he knew how she felt and he had left
