"Y/N, let's go!" Elijah's voice came from somewhere next to you. Panting you looked around to find out where your boyfriend was standing. He was just some metres away from you and you ran to him with supernatural speed.
He was covered with blood and for a second, you were afraid that it could have been his. But Elijah slightly shook his head. "I'm alright", he assured you. You nodded and grabbed his hand. The last fifteen minutes had been terrible: Three werewolves had attacked you and Elijah when you had gone to the Bayou. Now all the three of them were dead and you and Elijah were covered in blood. You looked at your bloody hands and didn't wish for more than taking a long, hot shower to wash it away.
"Why the hell did they attack us?", you murmured as you followed Elijah back to the car. He shrugged. "I've got no idea. But maybe simply because we entered their district and are vampires. You remember: Vampires and werewolves are supposed to be enemies."

Back at the Mikaelson house, you hurried to get undressed. Elijah did the same. When you took off your jacket, a burning pain rushed through your left arm. "Ouch!"
"What's the matter?" Elijah came over to you, frowning. "I don't know, my arm just hurt...", you murmured as you watched your boyfriend grabbing it. "Y/N...", Elijah quietly said and now you looked at your arm for the first time.
If your heart would have still beaten in your chest, it would have skipped a beat. A bite. One of the werewolves had bitten you and you hadn't realized it until now! You slowly looked up at Elijah. Your eyes met and you could see how worried he was.
"We need Niklaus", was all he said as he brought you to the bed. You wriggled out of his grip. "Elijah, I want to take a shower. I...I know what that bite means. I just...I want to wash away all the blood", you explained to him as calmly as you could. He just nodded, knowing that he couldn't change your mind right now.
"Alright. I'll call Niklaus."
~
When you crawled into bed and under the duvet after you've taken the shower, you started to feel unwell. Your arm was burning and the wound had gotten a bit bigger by now. You were sweating and you felt sick.
"I can't reach him!" Elijah came back into the bedroom, holding his phone in his hands. When he saw you laying there, he rushed over to you. "How are you feeling?" He placed a hand on your sweaty forehead.
"I'm...feeling awful. And that happened within the last ten minutes", you quietly said. It was as if you'd have a really bad flu. Just with a growing, burning and itching wound on your forearm.
"Niklaus' blood will heal you, darling", Elijah promised you and sat down on the edge of the bed. "Where is he?", you asked. You knew that Klaus' blood would help you but Klaus wasn't here and you slowly started to get scared. This bite would kill you if you wouldn't get what you needed. And you didn't want to die.
As tears started to show up in your eyes, Elijah gently stroked your cheek. "Shh, don't cry. Everything will turn out alright", he tried to calm you down. You nodded and swallowed back the tears.
Elijah stood up again and dialed Klaus' number again. "Niklaus, that's an emergency. So, I hope you're dead because that would be the only excuse I'd accept for not answering your damn phone!", Elijah exclaimed. You slightly winced at the loud sound of his voice. He rarely lost his temper and when he did, you knew, it was serious.
Well, your situation was serious, that was for sure. You coughed and turned on your left side. "I'll bring you some water", Elijah said and was gone the next second. You closed your eyes and tried to concentrate. He was talking to someone else on the phone, you could hear it. Rebekah. Elijah was talking to his sister. He asked her to search for Klaus and she'd promised that she would find him.
When Elijah came back with a glass of water, you felt so weak you weren't sure you'd be able to sit up and drink it. "Elijah...", you whispered. He understood and sat down before he gently grabbed your neck and helped you sitting up a bit. But you didn't feel satisfied after that glass of water. You needed something else.
"Elijah, is there...any blood in the house?" He looked at you in surprise for a moment. "I think there must be something in the fridge. I'll be right back." He kissed your forehead and then got up again.
You laid back again and closed your eyes. You felt so exhausted and your arm was burning like hell. You wished you could get rid of it. For a moment, it was like you fell asleep. It was as if you were dreaming. When you opened your eyes again, there was a person sitting on your bed you hadn't seen in hundred years. And you knew, this couldn't be happening. But...he was here.
"Dad?" Your voice sounded raspy and your throat hurt. But you tried to get to the other side of the bed. Your dad had been abusing you since you had been a little girl and you had been afraid of him always. Even when you had been turned into a vampire.
A sob escaped your lips. "Go away! Leave me alone!" You kicked in his direction, suddenly full of strength again. But then, two strong hands grabbed your arms and held you down. "Y/N! Stop that! I'ts me, Elijah!"
Your eyes widened when your dad's face disappeared and Elijah's appeared again. "Oh god", you sobbed. Elijah immediately wrapped his arms around you and pulled you closer to him. "Take deep breaths. You'll be fine", Elijah murmured while he stroked your hair and your back. You clawed on his shirt. Your whole body was on fire now and if you were honest, you just wanted to die at this point. You had never imagined how fast it could go when a werewolf bit a vampire.
~
Two hours later, you felt incredibly weak already and there was still no Klaus to give you what you needed.
"Here's some blood." Elijah reached you a glass filled with the red liquid. You grabbed it and drank it as fast as you could, just to spill it all out again a moment later. "Elijah, what's happening with me?" You couldn't hide your fear in your voice.
"Your body is starting to refuse what a vampire usually needs", Elijah replied. He looked all worried and stressed now. Every few minutes he gazed at his phone, hoping that Rebekah would have sent him a message or called him to say that she found Klaus. But there was nothing.
You were in some kind of coma when Elijah put you in his arms, kissed your cheek and your hair and stroked your back. "You won't die. I won't let this happen", he murmured over and over again. You slightly smiled.
"Elijah...", you whispered and managed to place a hand on his cheek. "I love you."
"I love you too, Y/N. But stop trying to say goodbye. You won't die." Elijah pulled you even closer to him. "Where the hell is Niklaus when you need him?", he murmured between clenched teeth.
"I'm here, no reason to freak out." Elijah jumped from the bed and you looked up. Klaus. He was just walking into the bedroom. "Where have you been, brother? It's not like this is an emergency!", Elijah exclaimed throwing his hands up in the air.
"Y/N needs your blood, hurry up." Elijah had lost all his patience and literally dragged his brother towards the bed you were laying in. Klaus let out a sigh, before he bit his own wrist and held it towards you.
And as soon as you could taste the hybrid blood, you started to feel better again. "Thank you", you murmured.
"Sure. You're my brother's everything. He would find a way to kill me if I'd let you die." With these words Klaus left again and let you and Elijah alone.
"Can...I have some blood?", you asked and with a smile Elijah nodded. But before he left to bring you some, he leaned down and kissed you. "Thank god you're safe now."
"Thank you for taking care of me, Elijah."
