This book is made of Elena and Elijah One shots and short stories like- "Uncompel", "Heal", "Never Tear Us Apart", "I lost myself again", "We don't talk anymore", "Where did your Heart go?'-
it all started as I was Inspired by J.J. Cale 'Magnoli...
"Elena, what happened? Who is this guy? What did he do?"- Maria, a fellow waitress asks.
Elena brushes her tears saying-
"No one"
"For a no one, he sure knows how to shake you"- Maria says
Elijah now walks in the restaurant kitchen and without any innuendos he goes- without caring that all eyes are set on him -
"Yes, Elena, I knew and I cowardly backed down. And no excuse will cut it. I know I have made a mess of everything hiding behind my family, where in fact, I was hiding behind my own inability to accept my true feelings and express them no matter if you would despise me- for I have behaved abominably... and I came here to ask for your forgiveness... to tell you that I ardently admire and love you and -hope you give me a fighting chance no matter how small it may be"
Elena now feels that her head is spinning. Her heart races up and she can hear people cheering her to give him a break, put him out of his misery- but her mind feeds her the hurt and disappointment he had left her with. It filters in her eyes now at him.
Elijah nods a little understandingly. He walks out.
Maria now looks at Elena and makes a following comment-
"OMG- what was this? He is no one? Seriously? You two put this kitchen on fire right now- what are you doing? Why are you letting him go? The man just spilled his soul out to you?"
"You don't know"- Elena then says taking the apron off, putting it aside on the counter. She walks out to the bar, where she takes her bag. She leaves the place with the thunder still in her head, in her heart, in her soul. Yes-what was that? Never in her wildest dreams could she have imagined that he would appear again. He had this life in New Orleans. Stefan told her everything. So, how come now? She takes her phone and dials the vampire's number.
"Elena?"- the vampire answers.
"How is he here?"- Elena asks.
"Who?"- Stefan is not understanding who she talking about.
"Elijah!"- Elena says-"you said that no one can find us. We are off the magic grid?"
"I don't know"- Stefan says-"what did he want? Are you all right?"
"Nothing. Yes, I am fine"- Elena fibs.
"You don't sound fine."- Stefan says-"if he has come because something is up with his damned family, this will be the last thing they will ever do"
"No, Stefan. It's nothing like that. It's -"- Elena reassures the vampire.
She goes quiet and by the way Elena takes a deep breath, the vampire now knows what it is about and says-
"And how do you feel?"
"You know how I feel. But- it's not that simple"- Elena says with a teary voice.
"It never is when he is concerned"
"No, it's not."- Elena sighs again -"but it is too late anyway. He left. I don't know why it bothers me. Why I am just so - huh"
"Because you love him. You always have."- Stefan says.
Elena nods. It was so. She loved the Original vampire. It was that simple. She hangs up.
