We don't talk anymore

Sometime in the future- 
Johnstown, NY

"Elena"- Elijah said as she got to the porch of the house he was staying at.

"Elijah"- Elena said back now as she  got onto the porch.

and there was silence, they both looked out into the dusk for a second and the eyes locking at one another saying-

We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, like we used to do
We don't love anymore
What was all of it for?
Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

And then Elena's streaming at Elijah's as her heart pounded with a whiff of jealousy -

I just heard you found the one you've been looking
You've been looking for
I wish I would have known that wasn't me
Cause even after all this time I still wonder
Why I can't move on
Just the way you did so easily

Weeks before in New York

Elijah swished away from the place after seeing Elena into a bar ordering The Four Roses bourbon

Elijah swished away from the place after seeing Elena into a bar ordering The Four Roses bourbon.

Elijah couldn't get Elena off of his mind. She seemed happy and content with this guy.

A song played in the background

Don't wanna know

What kind of dress you're wearing tonight

If he's holding onto you so tight
The way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

In New York, a few weeks before

Elena hang up the phone as she finished talking to Bonnie. Everything her vampire friend told her drummed in her head- "The Originals need your blood. I know- again. Elijah asked. And he will understand if you say no."

Elena closed her eyes-her mind wondering off into another time and another space. Why was her heart strangely hung up on the Original vampire when she knew he was with her.

I just hope you're lying next to somebody

Who knows how to love you like me
There must be a good reason that you're gone
Every now and then I think you
Might want me to come show up at your door
But I'm just too afraid that I'll be wrong

And her heart went into a strop-

Don't wanna know
If you're looking into her eyes
If she's holding onto you so tight the way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

*****

And now in this little town in  the heart of New York state, on the porch of this sweet little house- Elejah eyes still fixed on one another.

That we don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)
We don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)
We don't talk anymore, like we used to do
We don't love anymore (We don't, we don't)
What was all of it for? (We don't, we don't)
Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

There is this anguish, pain, frustration, need, apologies, hope.
Kiss.

 Kiss
