A Dangerous Desire- Elijah x OC

Maps

Vee POV:

I can't believe I gave Klaus Mikaelson a chance, I was actually nice to him and still gave him the benefit of the doubt after he choked me, twice! Well, I am done being nice.

I jump in my car and drive over to the Boarding House,

Storming in I start shouting for "Damon!"

Stefan happens to walk in first, "What's going on?" he asks

"Meeting now, get everyone over here," I instruct

Damon comes strolling down the stairs, "wow, what crawled up you're butt?"

"Klaus Mikaelson," I tell him

He tilts his head and quips "you're a little late to the party on that one,"

"He daggered Elijah," I tell them

"So that's why Elijah's been AWOL," Stefan says assuming Elijah has been daggered a lot longer than just the past day and that's the reason he has left Elena and them alone.

"Great, one less Original to worry about, why are we supposed to care?" Damon asks

"Oh just that Katherine handed over the moonstone to him and considering Klaus is going to start killing you all soon I thought It was pertinent," I tell them giving them a damn good reason to care.

"Should have led with that," Damon says narrowing his eyes at me.

"Can't we just explain to Klaus that Elijah has it?" Stefan asks

"No, screw Klaus I am done being nice about this. Klaus has all his siblings daggered, he carts them around in coffins. If we find them, we have the leverage, we call the shots and we get Klaus Mikaelson to start playing our game."

"You're talking about starting a war," Stefan tries to caution me but I am too far gone to be reeled in now.

"I'm talking about stopping a war before it can begin, so are you in or out?" I ask the two of them,

Damon gets a sinister smile, "you had me at pertinent,"

I nod, "good, we're gonna need some maps."

3 Person POV:

The gang has been up all night at the Boarding house on google maps trying to find any location one could store 5 coffins within an hour's drive.

It is not a small list so they all split off checking as many locations as possible, everyone except Elena and Stefan they stay in town to be the decoys and keep Klaus' attention elsewhere.

No one has found anything and it's nearly midnight now, the gang is tired and ready to call it quits but Vee refuses to stop looking.

Damon sends everyone else home and tags along not wanting to leave his pregnant friend on her own.

"Don't you think you're taking this a little far, there's nothing wrong with going home getting some sleep and getting back at it tomorrow," he tells her

"I can't stop looking," she says

"why not?"

"I just can't! Okay, Damon so please don't ask me to."

They approach the next warehouse and walk-in, there they see what they've been looking for the past day and a half,

"Remind me never to question you again," Damon mutters not quite believing what he's seeing

Vee runs over to the first coffin and throws open the lid, it's Kol, she moves over to the next one, it doesn't open... it must be Esther. Finally she finds him- Elijah,

She reaches for the dagger and removes it shocking Damon, "What the hell are you doing?!"

"Elijah, hey come on wake up," she says softly to the original patting his cheek.

"You know him," Damon says realizing there is more going on here then she told everyone.

"Elijah! Please, please wake up," when he still remains frozen she tells him what she's been dying to ever since she learned Klaus had him,

"I love you!"

Elijah's eyes snap open and he turns to stare at Vee, "those are the sweetest words one could hear upon waking,"

Vee laughs relieved before leaning down to kiss him, their noses brush against each other until they fit perfectly side by side as their lips meet, despite the lack of oxygen Vee feels like she can breathe again,

"Hold up, did you just trick all of us into saving your secret boyfriend?" Damon asks incredulously

Vee pauses from kisses Elijah to say "You're damn right I did," she tells him never taking her eyes of Elijah.

Elijah POV:

Getting a dagger in my back from my brother shouldn't have surprised me as much as it did, but I wasn't gone long, it felt like I merely blinked before I was once again staring into the eyes of the woman who had completely stolen my heart,

... did she say she loved me?

"Those are the sweetest words one could hear upon waking," I tell her and she rewards me with a kiss,

It's funny I have done a lot of saving in my existence, but being the one saved those occasions have been few and far between, leave it to Lavendar to find even more ways to impress and surprise me,

unfortunately our happy reunion is cut short when the voice of Damon Salvatore interrupts,

"Hold up, did you just trick all of us into saving your secret boyfriend?"

"You're damn right I did," she tells him making me proud of her all over again,

I hop out of the coffin and approach Mr. Salvatore, "whatever assistance you provided ms. Donovan, you have my gratitude."

"Yeah well, can't get much at the candy store with just gratitude," the young vampire tells me already annoying me.

"What is it you would like as thanks then?" I ask just wishing to be rid of him so I can get back to the lovely woman behind me

"It's a lengthy list but it starts with a moonstone."

Taking a step back I turn to look at Lavender to gage her take but that's when I see where we are, I count 5 coffins, my siblings and I would only account for 4 but that's not relevant right now, right now I am realizing just how much my girl has achieved.

I wanted to wait until we weren't in the company of Mr. Salavatore but I can't hold it back any longer,

I zoom over to her, taking her face in my hands I utter the words that have been dancing on my tongue ever since Thanksgiving, "I love you."
