'you're compassion is a gift, Elena. Carry it with you...Always and Forever'
That was supposed to be their good-bye, but what if it wasn't. Secret meet ups, lies to family, when finally it has to come to an end. Elijah leaves without so much as a good-bye, and Elena breaks down. So she finally goes to Alaric, asking for something, she wants to forget. Elijah returns with his family to protect Hope. How will he react to this change in the girl he never got the chance to tell he loves? Follow our favorite characters through love, hate, betrayal, lies, and faith.
So kind of a AU, but it will follow some of the story line from the canon. Mature for some chapters. All rights to the creators of the show, and L.J Smith.
