Always and Forever.

Two

6 years later.

"Elijah!" A familiar voice roared, echoing through the compound. "Fuck." I muttered, slipping on my robe over my pyjamas. "Elijah isn't here Klaus, what do you want?" I groaned, trying to keep my distance from him. "Hello again, Rory. Still afraid of me?" He chuckled, taking a step towards me. "No, you stay the hell away from me." I backed up, only to hit the wall behind me. "Why should I? You were mine first." He grinned, getting closer and closer with each word. "You do remember our time together, don't you?" He whispered huskily in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. "Nik, stop. I'm not doing this again, you really hurt me." I had tears in my eyes as I pushed him away. To my utter disbelief he took a step back "Rory, I'm so sorry for what I've done to you. I truly mean that, and if you'll let me, I would do anything in my power to make it up to you." He looked as though he would start crying. As much as I hate him right now for everything he's ever done to me, maybe I could get some closure in hearing him out. "Meet me at Rousseau's tomorrow. 2pm. Do not under any circumstances be late, this is your one and only chance." I pointed my finger at him, turning on my heel and walking away to my room. Locking my door, I slumped to the ground holding my head in my hands ready to break down. After a few minutes of feeling sorry for myself I decided to call Elijah and tell him Nik was looking for him at the compound, and about my encounter with him. 20 minutes later I heard a faint knocking at my door, I lifted my head up praying to God it wasn't Klaus back again. "Aurora, it's Elijah, may I come in please?" I sighed a breath of relief, getting up and turning the lock. He opened the door and immediately I ran into his arms and finally let my tears flow. "Just know, you don't have to meet with my brother tomorrow if you don't wish to. I will protect you from him, always." He stroked my hair gently. "No, I have to. If I don't let him at least try to explain himself I know I'll regret it." I sniffled, lifting my head up to look at him. "If at any point you want to get away call me and I'll get you out of there." He wiped away stray tears from my cheeks. I could always count on Elijah to be my knight in shining armour, he's never once wronged me in the 6 years I've known him. He and Kol seem to be the only people I can truly trust in this family, Rebekah seems to just follow Klaus' every word like a sheep. Some things I can trust Freya with but she's closest to Rebekah, and with Rebekah comes Klaus. He's everyone's worst nightmare. "It's late, you should get some rest." He kissed my forehead, walking me over to my bed. I sat down on my bed and he started to walk away. "Elijah, wait." I started, just before he could walk out the door he turned to face me. "Yes Aurora?" He walked back over to me and stood right in front of me, his eyes piercing into my own. I took a deep breath, knowing what I was about to say could come back and bite me in the ass. "I want you to turn me." I stated bluntly.
