Chapter 15: old friend
At the morning, Meredith went to mystic-grill and fined there an angry Klaus. "Hi." She said. "Hi." He growled. "What's wrong?" asked Meredith and sat across from him. She was wearing a yellow dress today, her hair was still curly. "Stefan took the coffins, and refuses to give them back." Said Klaus. "What does he want?" asked Meredith while ordering a chocolate cake and orange juice from the waiter. "He didn't say yet." Said Klaus and stared on her cake.
"Do you want some?" she asked him. "No, thanks. Since when you are eating cakes?" he asked confused. "Since I want to," she answered. "o.k." he mumbled. "So what are you doing now?" asked Meredith. "Building a house, here in mystic falls." Said Klaus. "Cool." She said. "That is the way you treat me," he said. "What?" she asked confused. "You are cool with me, cold, frozen, icy." He said. "I got the point, but what did you expect? You left me." Said Meredith. "To create my hybrids, so I wouldn't be alone." Said Klaus. "You had me," she said. "But you are not like me." Said Klaus. "Fine." She said, put some money on the table and left.
After that day, Jeremy almost got killed, and Elena gave Klaus Rebecca. He put her in a coffin and put the coffin in the almost finished house. Stefan demanded that the hybrids will get out of town and Klaus gave up after Elena almost turned in to a vampire by Stefan.
Meredith walked quietly to the house of the hundred witches. She looked at the empty room.
"Can you show them to me please?" she asked looking up. The four coffins showed up. "Nice job huntress. Is your boyfriend on the way?" asked Stefan. "No. I am here alone." Said Meredith. "Why?" asked Stefan. "I wanted to wake up Elijah." Said Meredith. "Why him?" asked Stefan. "Because I am lonely, and he was my friend." Said Meredith. "I see." Said Stefan.
"Bonnie and Elena left to fined Bonnie's mother; they hoped she will be able to help opening the locked coffin. I am going after them." Said Stefan. "O.k. just be careful." Said Meredith. Stefan was the only one she still really cared about. It wasn't his fault that Klaus changed him completely. Stefan stared at her for a moment and left.
A few hours later, Damon ran in. "what are you doing here?" asked Damon. "Waiting that Elijah will wake up," said Meredith, showing him the dagger she pulled out from Elijah. "It's not a bad idea." Said Damon. "Why are you here?" she asked. "Klaus has Bonnie, so I am going to take the locked coffin out before we give him the others." Said Damon. "Do what you want; I left Elijah a note to meet me when he wakes up, just in case." Said Meredith. "Cool." He said and took out the fourth coffin.
Meredith left. She waited on the bridge. Meanwhile Klaus got back three of the coffins and asked the hybrids to come back in town. The house was finished, and Meredith already started her fifth month of the pregnancy.
"Hello," said a voice next to her. "Good morning," said Meredith. Elijah chuckled.
"You said you wanted to talk with me, in your note." Said Elijah. "Yes, listen to my body, what you hear?" she asked. He fined her request funny, but he obeyed anyway. He was listening carefully. "Your pulse." He said. "Keep listening." She asked. He gasped. "You are pregnant." He said. "Yes, I just started my fifth month." She told him.
"But who is the father? You had something with Damon but I am pretty sure vampires can't have kids." Said Elijah. "I had what?! Are you out of your mind? Me and Damon? Hell no!" she shouted. Elijah chuckled again. "Then who?" he asked. "Nicklaus." She said. "What?! But vampires can't- ho. He is a hybrid." It hit him. "But you… I am confused." Said Elijah. She laughed. "Let's go to some coffee place, I want cake." Said Meredith. Elijah followed her to her car, chuckling.
"She is with your brother sir. I didn't hear everything, but they went to a coffee place." Said one of the hybrids. He was a blond boy. "Do you know where?" asked Klaus. "No sir. They were in her car, and I was on foot, but it's out of town." said the boy. "Thank you Tom." Said Klaus and the boy left.
He send the hybrid to follow Meredith because he missed her, and she was mad at him. Now she is with his brother, and it make him jealous. She is his girl, she loves him. She didn't stop loving him, did she? He should have told her that he loves her, why didn't he do it?
Meredith was sitting at the coffee place with Elijah, telling him the whole story.
When she finished the story, there was silence for a moment. "So the witch told you that you are pregnant." Said Elijah. "Yes." She said sadly, remembering how she killed her. "It wasn't your fault." Said Elijah. "Maybe. But was she right? Do you think my baby is a monster?" she asked with tears in her eyes. "No, of course not. This baby is a blessing to our family; he will give us a second chance to be a real family again." He said softly. "But what if Nick will hate me for laying to him, or what if he doesn't want him?" she asked. "So you will have my full support." Said Elijah. She nodded.
"But from what you told me, Nicklaus is different now, he is in love." He said in a smile. "Thank you Elijah, it's really help, talking with you. I feel less lonely now." Said Meredith. "You're welcome. Can I ask something?" he said. "Sure." She replied. "Can I feel the baby?" she chuckled, "sure." She put his hand on the right place, and he smiled when he felt the baby's kicking. Her cellphone rang and they both jump. She looked at the unfamiliar number. Elijah moved back, giving her some space.
"Hello?" she asked. "Hello love." Said Klaus. "Nick. How did you get my number?" she asked confused. "I stole it from Rebecca's cellphone." Said Klaus. "Ho. That's not nice." Said Meredith. "Sorry. But I wanted to speak with you, I miss you." He said. "I miss you too." Said Meredith. "Really? Because I know that you are with my brother now." He said. "Are you stalking me?!" she asked angrily. "I didn't have a choice! You are avoiding me!" he said. "You left me. And Elijah is my friend. The only friend I have." Said Meredith.
"You are not dating him?" he asked softly. "No Nicky, I don't." she said softly. Klaus felt that he was melting just because she called him Nicky. "You called me Nicky." He stated. She laughed, "I know." She said. "I like it. It's new." He said. She chuckled. "When are you coming home? The house is finished." He asked. "Soon, I need to speak with you." She said. "ho. O.k. see you." He said quietly. "See you, Nicky." She replied and hanged up.
"You turned him in to a teenager." said Elijah. She laughed, making Elijah smile. "You are going to tell him?" asked Elijah. "Yes." She said. "It's good." Said Elijah. "I hope so." Said Meredith.
