Through pain comes love

I wish

"I wish you loved me like you love her. I wish you cared enough about me to put me before anyone else, I have a long list of wishes and it hurts cause I know you'll never care about me the way you care about her." Klaus said upset "I'm in love with her. And I do care about you, but it's always been her and it always will be" Damon replied "I know but I'm still aloud my wishes" Klaus said making his voice cold "you are. But you should start wishing for something different" Damon replied equally as cold.

Klaus stood up without a word and left "where are you going?" Damon asked standing up and vamp speeding so he was now in front of Klaus, "I'm leaving" he said vamp speeding past Damon "you know I care about you, but I don't love you, your my friend I can always talk to you about anything but I don't love you." Damon said vamp speeding so he was outside standing next to Klaus.

"I can't just be your friend anymore" Klaus said oddly vulnerable, Damon stood there shocked they didn't speak for a while they just stood there in silence, "Damon, it's too much, I can't be there and act like everything she's done to you doesn't matter. She's hurt you, she played with you but your to blinded by your love to see that's shes completely wrong for you. You deserve better than that, I'm fed up of watching you get hurt. Whenever you wanna talk I'm there, I give you my advise and I want you to be happy but I can't watch you get hurt anymore." Klaus spoke honestly.

"I never realised that you felt that way" Damon said sadly "yeah well you never notice any one but her" Klaus looked away before vamp speeding behind Damon and breaking his neck, klaus picked up Damon's limp body and placed him on a bench before walking away.

"I'm ready to return to New Orleans" Klaus said when he found his brother "what changed your mind brother?" Elijah asked "the truth" was all klaus said, Elijah stayed silent knowing klaus no longer wanted to talk about this.

"We can leave in the morning" Elijah said Klaus nodded then walked away.

Damon woke up a few hours later with a pain in his neck "that bastard" Damon muttered as he stood up, Damon pulled out his phone and rang Klaus "hello?" Klaus asked politely "seriously, you broke my fucking neck" Damon shouted pissed.

"Now really isn't the time Damon" Klaus replied calmly, in the background he could hear people talking "where are you?" Damon asked annoyed, klaus stayed silent. After a few minutes of silence Damon figured it out "your leaving" Damon realised quickly "I'm surprised you realised it so quickly" Klaus replied "why are you leaving?" Damon asked stupidly "I don't think even you are that stupid."

"You coward instead of talking about this you leave" Damon shouted angrily "there's nothing to talk about, I said everything last night" Klaus sighed "Klaus" Damon said softly but before he could continue Klaus hung up.

"Are you sure you want to leave brother " Elijah asked as they drove to the airport. "There's nothing left for me here" klaus replied looking out of the car window, after that they didn't speak again.

When they arrived at the air port Elijah shot a glance at klaus trying to see if there was any sort of doubt in his brothers eyes, but of course there wasn't. "What time is our plane?" Klaus asked "9:30" Elijah replied, klaus looked at the clock and it was only 8:30, klaus sighed and sat down.

Damon once again tried to ring klaus and it went straight to voice mail "you're a fucking coward" Damon shouted down the phone, he felt like killing someone, and it just so happened that someone was walking past at that very moment.

Damon bit into her neck without a second thought after he drank his fill he broke her neck and left, when he got back to the Salvatore boarding house Elena was there with Stefan.

They were sat on the sofa and looked like they were in a deep conversation, when they seen Damon the conversation instantly stopped "oh carry on don't let little old me disturb you" Damon said walking straight past them, down the hall then up the stairs heading towards his room, Elena followed closely behind him.

"Why are you covered in blood?" Elena asked shutting Damon's door after they both entered the room "don't pretend like you can't figure it out" replied Damon "you killed someone. Why?" She asked "because that's what I do Elena, I'm a vampire I kill things because I want to. It's the way I am and you need to learn that I'm not going to change" he stated stripping of his shirt.

He kicked of his shoes then started on his pants when his phone rang, Elena was still in the room frozen with shock, "hello?" Damon said answering the phone "what did you do to Nicklaus?" Elijah asked over the phone "nothing why?" Damon asked confused 'why the hell would Elijah be ringing me?' Damon thought to himself "we're leaving and before we go I want to know if this is really the right decision for Nic" Elijah explained politely.

"Nic is a thousand year old hybrid, what makes you think either of us could stop him from leaving?" Damon asked, the other end went silent, Elena gasped and looked at Damon shocked, Damon only rolled his eyes in response.

After a minute Damon could hear Elijah chuckle on the other end "what you laughing at?" Damon asked annoyed "nothing. You shouldn't let him leave" Elijah replied "why would I try to stop him from leaving?" Damon asked "because you love him" Elijah spoke.

"Elena get out" Damon demanded Elena was about to say something but after she saw the seriousness on his face she left quietly, after he heard her footsteps disappear he finally spoke, "I don't love him" Damon stated.

"I don't mean like a lover I mean like a close friend. If he leaves now he's never coming back, do you really want to lose your closest friend?" Elijah asked, Damon stayed silent, "I'm on my way" Damon said before hanging up.

"You know brother I have perfect hearing" Klaus reminded Elijah "if you have perfect hearing then you know he's on his way" "yes i did hear something about that, but i'm still leaving. There's nothing left for us here brother" Klaus said seriously "we have friends here" Elijah replied "oh you mean the people who tried to kill us multiple times and did succeed in killing our brother Kol" Klaus once again reminded him.

Elijah looked away only for a second but that was enough time for Klaus to realize what his brother was thinking or rather what he felt "you like Elena" Klaus stared with a knowing smirk, Elijah stayed quiet "you know he'll never leave her, and even if she did leave him it would be for Stefan" Klaus said sadly he knew what Elijah was going through it was painful to love someone who didn't love you back "he doesn't want to admit it but its true he does love you, maybe not in the way you love him but it is there." Elijah replied.

"you shouldn't be giving me love advise brother" they were stood outside the airport so when damon pulled up in his basic 1969 Chevy Camaro Convertible they noticed straight away, "i really didn't think you'd show up" Klaus stated when Damon walked towards them "i only came to say goodbye" Damon stated.

They stood in that silence for a while no one knowing what to say, Elijah didn't speak only turned on his heels and entered the airport "will you come back?" Damon asked "at some point maybe" replied Klaus "in some messed up way i'm going to miss you" replied Damon honestly, Klaus just nodded for once he was speechless.

"goodbye Damon" Klaus said he took a step forward and kissed Damon gently, Klaus turned away and followed the path his brother took.

"bye" Damon said with his eyes downcast.
