Always and forever[BOOK 1]

9.Reigning pain in New Orleans

Outside the house was a blue truck as workers were going in and out taking most of the furniture and all of Klaus' stuff.

'' Absolutely not, I paid for that!'' I heard Rebekah shouting at the worker as I walked downstairs and into the living room. The worker ignored her completely and took the coffee table out the house.

'' Please, you never paid for anything in your life.'' Elijah said to her as he was pacing slowly around the room.

'' I hardly see how that's relevant. Nik's just punishing us.'' Rebekah exclaimed and sat on the couch.

'' Well, we've hurt him. Deeply, it would appear.'' Elijah said.

''Not we. I did.'' I said as they both looked at me. ''This is all my fault.'' I said and Elijah walked to me.

''Don't say that Amy. That's not true. This is us. We all hurt him.'' Elijah said.

''Yes but he will never forgive us. Well he will never forgive me.'' I said.

'' We believed the worst about him, the one time in a million when the worst wasn't actually the truth.'' Rebekah said. I looked at them and then turned to walk away.

''Where are you going?'' they asked together.

'' To make sure Hayley doesn't suffer for my mistakes. Nik is hurt, we cannot know that she is safe.'' I said but Elijah grabbed my arm.

''You're not going anywhere!'' he shouted.

''What are you saying, Elijah? Let me go. I have to fix this!'' I shouted back.

''You're not going there. You're not going to Niklaus. He is going to dagger you or worse!'' he said and paused. ''I'm not going to lose you.'' he said more quietly. I looked inside his eyes.

''I'll go.'' he said and started to walk away. ''Don't go anywhere you two!'' he said as he left the house. I looked at Rebekah and she at me.

''We are so talking about this.'' she stated. I sighed and rolled my eyes as I poured as two glasses of scotch. I sat beside her at the couch.

''Did you know that?'' I asked her.

''What? Nik being in love with you? No way!'' she said.

''I don't know what to do. I just wish he changes his mind and comes back here. I can't bear this!'' I exclaimed as she wrapped her hand around my shoulder to comforted me.

''Don't worry. Everything will clear out.'' she said. I nodded but I didn't quite believe her. I then looked at her.

''Ready to break the rules one more time?'' I said and smiled. She smirked.

''When am I not?'' she asked as we both drunk our drinks and walked out of the living and of to the French Quarter to find Elijah.

After reaching Marcel's house and knocking some vampires down we reached Hayley's room and saw her talking to Elijah.

'' Come, we mustn't linger. We'll get you some place safe.'' Elijah said but Hayley shook her head.

'' No, you don't have to worry about me. I'm fine. I've been deemed under protection by the almighty Klaus. It's the werewolves who need help. He ordered a wolf hunt as some jacked-up peace offering to Marcel's crew. You have to help them.'' she said looking at us. Elijah followed her look and then rolled his eyes.

''What are you doing here? I remember telling you to stay put. I don't recall saying it at another language!'' he said angry.

''There's nothing you can do, Elijah. We have to stick together.'' I said.
