Elijah POV:
"Hello Elijah" Hayley greeted me, memories of the only night we had shared before she married Jackson, came to the surface. I suppressed the feelings directly again, it brought nothing. Hayley was married and happy with Jackson. "Hello Hayley, what brings you to this late hour?" I informed about the reason she was here.
"I wanted to say goodbye, I'm going to spend the next few days with Hope at Bayou, I just came here to give you free, I love Jackson too, and it doesn't feel fair to him when I still long after you," Hayley told me, and it sounded partly like practiced. "I understand that," She replied to her farewell, and she added, "I see that you care about Ella, the way you look at her, the best thing you can do is be there for her, just as you did for me when I was pregnant with Hope,she needs someone who doesn't deal with how he feels as violent like Klaus, you're good for her."
With one last look at me, she left my room and left me alone, she would disappear from my life for a few weeks because it was not fair to her husband that she felt torn back and forth. I could understand it very well, I felt torn back and forth when I saw her and Ella.
Something about Ella's gaze when I approached her about her thinking she wasn't even close to be a fit for me, left me no rest, in fact Ella didn't leave me rest since she entered my life.
The look with a hint of pain, of loneliness did not let me go, why had the mark appeared on our skin, if it had not like Rebekah and also Kol both said that it indicated the perfect partner? But was I worthy of that? Was i worthy to have someone like Ella, my companion, in my life and perhaps at some point in the future to find out what it was like to have someone who belonged to you?
I decided not to think about it today, there was no point in breaking my head about it, when the time was right, Ella might tell me why she thought she wasn't a suitable partner for me, which my siblings never grew tired of mentioning. Even though I didn't think much of the legends predicted that you would find the perfect partner for yourself by the time. I didn't know how wrong I was at that point.
The next morning I was awakened for the first time by the sunlight that shone into the room. Otherwise I was always awake earlier, but this time not, yesterday evening had played through my head even longer than I had thought. Especially that Ella, Niklaus had said, she was not a suitable partner still haunted my thoughts. Niklaus comment that she did not want to trust, I had not told him about her for good reason, so that he had no way to use knowledge against her. He had said I was worth trusting, but I knew from my own experience how hard it could be to trust. Ella had good reasons why she didn't want to trust. At some point, she might trust me enough to tell me what made her so sad, except for the loss of her life in her world.
When I was dressed, I left my room to go to the library, some morning reading couldn't hurt. To my surprise, I found Ella sitting on the balcony, her face facing the sun, her eyes closed.
"Good morning" I greeted her, to which she looked at me with her eyes pinched together, "Morning" she muttered more and by her attitude I could see that she most likely had headaches, which struck me positively in any case, was that her knee had healed by now. "Not well slept?" I asked her, she didn't look in my direction anymore, but answered me, "My head almost bursts, does it feel like you've drunk too much?"
I sat down with her, "That's what matters, I don't know what it feels like for a person, but if you didn't secretly gone trough the alcohol stock yesterday, the headaches have another cause," I told her, to which Ella looked at me. "I don't like alcohol, the probability that I'll ever go trough anything is very small," she told me, her face in pain.
I sat down with her and put her legs on my lap, so her legs were a little higher and if her circulation was to stabilize, in the next few seconds, I could hear her heart beating more calmly. Her knee was almost healed and I could feel her look on me, but she allowed me to examine her knee. That I helped her, even if she felt better than to be helped.
