breaking the bond [ elena , the mikaelson brothers ] ✔️

13

Elena woke up to sun streaming across her face. She sighed in contentment as she felt Kol's arms tighten around her waist. She stretched and gasped when she felt a strange flutter in her stomach.

"Are you hungry already?" Kol said against her hair as he rubbed her stomach softly, "What do you want for breakfast, darling?"

She turned to face him, practically crying at how beautiful he was. His beautiful brown eyes, his flawless pale skin, his strong jaw line, his straight nose. She sighed, "Kol, we still need to talk."

He kissed her nose, "I know. I'm sorry for what I said before you left. It was wrong and immature. I was just frustrated and hurt, but it's okay now. As long as you decide to forgive me."

"Of course I forgive you," Elena said, staring into his pleading eyes, "I just have something else I need to tell you."

Kol stiffened, his arms turning to iron around her, "What is it?"

She looked down, taking his hand and placing it on her stomach, "I'm-" her stomach fluttered uncontrollably, making her blush.

"Hungry," He finished for her, smiling.

She shook her head, "No, I'm not hungry."

"Tell your stomach that," he quipped.

"Why don't you?" She suggested.

Puzzlement clouded his face, "I'm not talking to your stomach, darling. It's a one sided conversation."

Elena smiled wide, "Don't talk to my stomach, Kol. Talk to your baby."

"My what?" His eyes widened almost comically, jumping down to her stomach and planting kisses all over it, "You-you're pregnant? Are you sure?"

She nodded enthusiastically, "I'm sure. Bonnie confirmed it. I'm about six weeks along."

He suddenly stopped and looked up at her, "Is it mine?"

"I'm not sure," she admitted, sitting up against the headboard, "But-"

"I don't care," he cut her off and cupped her delicate face between his strong hands, "It doesn't matter if this baby is mine or not. I'm going to take care of you, darling. You and our child."

She smiled brightly at him, "Really?"

He pulled her into his lap and kissed her softly, "Really."

"Niklaus, what on earth are you doing?" Elijah asked as he walked into the kitchen.

Klaus stood in front of the stove, flipping an omelet as he whistled to himself, "I'm making breakfast for the mother of my child, Elijah."

Elijah took a seat at the kitchen table, leafing through the newspaper, "You never did this for Hayley," he observed quietly, "Why is Elena any different?"

"Because, dear brother," Klaus explained, pouring a glass of orange juice, "Elena happens to be one of our mates and I'm betting that it's me." He plated up the food and put it on a tray with the orange juice. He looked at Elijah cockily, "And I refuse to be absent during her pregnancy like I was with the little wolf. I don't want her to resent me as Hayley does."

"Good luck," Elijah bid his brother as Klaus disappeared upstairs.

"Oh my God, Kol!" Elena panted against Kol's chest.

He thrust into her, groaning as she tightened around him, "I've missed this so much."
