Bonnie, who knew what it was about tried to distract them all by giving them  drinks, but suddenly all eyes were on Elejah.

"Elena" Elijah now started-"last night was very meaningful

"Elena" Elijah now started-"last night was very meaningful. And I am sorry that I used the sms to write how I feel about you"

"Elijah-stop- I just - Can we - like talk about it - in private - I - everyone is listening" Elena now said.

"So? Let them listen - I want everyone to know how I feel about you."

Elena now cut in again,
"I just don't really believe it - what you wrote - I mean - how come now - and you waited a year - but you had no problem sleeping with - ugh- doesn't matter-"

Elena now turned around to walk off, but Elijah caught her hand stopping her leave. Still gently holding it, he continued,
"Last year, when you were leaving for Boston I wanted to tell you, that I wanted to be with you-"

Flashback

A year ago

Klaus' apartment

"I think I am in love."  Klaus said as he got off his phone to Caroline Forbes.

"What?" Elijah said taking a sip of Bourbon-"You are serious?!"

"I am very serious. You should try it - but yeah - you don't do love. "

Elijah now just took another sip of Bourbon not saying anything.

"Sorry." Klaus  said as he knew that he kind of overstepped the mark, but then changed his mind and said-"No, actually I am not sorry. I know that Brooke hurt you. But seriously, are you like not let yourself fall for anyone again. Not all women are like her."

"Who says I am not - fallen for someone."  Elijah now said.

"Right- and? Who is she?"

"Elena. Elena Gilbert." Elijah replied.

"The young Associate that helped you crack the case-?!" Klaus remembered Elijah introducing her to him at the party celebration after they had won a big case.

"Yes." Elijah said.

"Great. She seems to be - a good one. And - what are you waiting for? Go for it!"

"She would never be interested in someone like me."

"Someone like you? What are talling about?"

"She wants someone like Enzo St. John. A cool guy. Plus, I am damaged goods."

"Damaged goods? Come on. Get this out of your head."
