"Come on let's go" Stefan got in the car and I walked following klaus but he stopped and turned to me

"You, my love... are staying here" he said sternly leaning no room for my protests

"What?" I asked. Wondering why I couldn't go, apart from the fact Alaric was now a very skilled hunter and I could be killed very easily

"Your not coming with us"

"Why not?" I frowned

"I want you safe love, and you can be safe in here"

"But what if... Alaric gets away and uses me to get to you?" I try to convince him but he was having none of it

"Not gonna happen" I sigh walking into his arms. He reciprocated it and kissed the top of my head

"Okay. I'll see you soon. It's just.. your leaving today. And I wanted to spend some time with you before you leave, but I guess not" I whisper

"It's okay" he closes his eyes and sighs but I don't miss the large smile crossing his face. When he opens his eyes he dips his head down and traps me in a kiss

"Get in the car before I change my mind" he mumbles. I bite my lip trying to contain my smile and he rolls his eyes ushering me to the car

We got out of the car out of the school

"Abby just showed up" Stefan tells us, shutting the car door behind him

"Good. Perhaps this plan won't be an epic failure after all" I walk over to klaus and wrap my arm around his waist

"When did this happen?" Stefan asks referring to what's going on between me and klaus

"She bumped into me in a park" klaus smirked at me and I blushed looking down

"And then we saw each other at mystic grill"

"I would think this relationship was horrendous" Stefan stated shaking his head

"If it wasn't for the fact you guys look at each other like their the most amazing person. I envy you" I sympathised for him, he didn't deserve the love triangle he was put in.

"Elena loves you Stefan. When you was gone, although I didn't know the reason why you left at the time, I still knew she would never stop loving you"

"Thank you Rea"

Klaus: "No, no. Andrea, call her Andrea" Stefan looks at me with a small knowing smile

"Andrea, sorry" we hear a phone ping and Stefan looks down at his phone before turning to me

"Bonnie can do the spell. But she needs to stop a humans heart"

"A human? Is she going to do it?" Stefan sighs. A pitiful took taking over his features

"She's doing it. To Jeremy" my eyes widen

"H-he's gonna die?" I ask, tears pricking my eyes

"She's gonna bring him back, he won't get hurt" klaus tells me

"He's 100% not gonna get hurt?"

Klaus: "It's not 100%"

"So whys he doing this? He can't just sacrifice himself"

"We need to do this"

"They're here" klaus says lifting his head up like he's listening in on something.

"Let's go" he takes my hand in his and we walk the short distance to the other side of the school where I see Jeremy, bonnie and Elena

"Andrea?" Jeremy says seeing me. I walk over to him and hug him before going back to klaus and taking his hand

"I Forgot about your psycho boyfriend for a second"

"Jeremy please" he nods

"I'm sorry" he sighs

"Drink this" bonnie says holding up a small bottle filled with red liquid

"It's my blood. It bridges us all together so when I stop Jeremy's heart you'll have the power to stop Alaric's. You'll have to make a physical connection to his bloodstream. A vein, artery. Something connected to his heart"

Stefan: "If one of us gets a clean shot, take it. The other 2 hold him down"

Klaus: "Before we all walk through this door I want to tell you all I was the one who created your bloodline so if I die, you all do too"

Damon: "Or your lying"

"I'm not lying. But call my bluff. If the teacher kills me you'll all be dead soon thereafter"

"Let's get this over with" Stefan says walking off followed by Damon

"I'll see you soon love" klaus says putting his hands on either side of my face and kissing the top of my head. I held onto his arms

"Be careful" I whispered.

"I will. I'll see you when this is over. Stay in the car and don't leave" he let go of me and walked in the direction of the school

"I don't even want to say it" Jeremy states with a kind of annoyed expression

"Well I hate to say this but they're cute together" bonnie says looking at Jeremy

"No they're not" Jeremy mumbles

"Come on quick, we need to do this spell. Andrea stay in the car, I don't feel like getting killed" he said before walking off with Bonnie

—

Around 20 minutes later klaus got in the car with Elena and put her unconscious body in the back seat

"Klaus?" I asked confused

He said he wasn't going to hurt her

"She just passed out because she cut her neck with a knife. I just need some of her blood, it won't hurt or anything"

"Your not gonna hurt her?"

"No, I promise you love, now sleep. I don't know how a human can be so tired all the time but you look exhausted" he took my hand and rubbed circles on it lulling me into a sleep

—

The next time I woke up I was alone again in the Mikaelson house. I frowned looking around the house

"Klaus? Did you leave?" I got up off my seat and walked around the place and sighed when I found it empty

I missed him already

—

When I walked into my own house I walked past Jeremy and Elena and their friends who was hanging in the kitchen

"I'm so sorry about klaus" Elena said stopping me

"Hm" I hummed

"I know you liked him. But him being desiccated like this is for the best"

"Desiccated? You guys desiccated him?" I turned to Jeremy

"We had to Andrea" he tried to explain

"You had to? You didn't. You didn't have to. How could you?" I said

"He's killed many people Andrea" I walked into the living room trying to get my head wrapped around it

"And Stefan and Damon haven't? When Damon turned his humanity off? Or Stefan as a ripper? But klaus is the one that stands out to you? You can't just pick and choose who you want to forgive Elena. They've all killed people"

"We had to" Jeremy sighed

"Did you guys even think how this would've effected me before you did it?"

"We didn't have enough time"

"Enough time? Or care? Because there's all this talk about family but klaus has been there for me since I met him more than you guys have my whole life"

"And who's fault is that?" Jeremy said getting angrier

"Who was the one that distanced themselves!?"

"That's different" I mumbled

"How!?"

"Cause I couldn't handle lying to you"

"Yeah! And what could've been so secretive you had to distance yourself!?? ANSWER ME ANDREA?!" He said towering over me

"Mum and dad abused me!" I stumbled out. Jeremy stopped walking towards me and furrowed his eyebrows. I looked to Elena who had a similar reaction

"What?" She spluttered out

"When you would go out, with only one parent? And I stayed home. They would.. take turns in hitting me, Punching me, kicking me, throwing me against walls. And I couldn't lie to you, either of you. I couldn't tell you. That our parents would beat me any time they wanted" tears were streaming down my face but I didn't stop

"Okay? Aunt Jenna knew, dead. Alaric knew, basically possessed. And they were the only ones that cared" Jeremy walked forward, tears also visible in his eyes

"Andrea-"

"No, you. Don't. Care. They cared. The only 3 people that cared about me, are gone"

"We care. We do" said pulling me into a hug to stop me from getting away. I sobbed trying but failing to push him away

"Then why did you take him away!? You took him from me! You didn't care how I would feel! I just wanted someone that cared" he held me tighter

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" he mumbled. I shook my head, not struggling against him anymore

"I'm so sorry"

Once I calmed down he let me go and I walked past him to my room

"Elena!"

—

I sat in the hospital waiting room next to Jeremy on my phone looking at klaus' number although there would be no way he would be able to answer

"I'm so sorry" he whispered

"It's not your fault"

"You distanced yourself. You was scared I'm so sorry I didn't realise"

"Don't blame yourself" I whispered

"It's in the past. Let's keep it in the past"

"Klaus isn't that bad when he's with you"he says suddenly

"You keep him in check. And he gets you out of your shell. I hate him. But he's actually good for you" I smile putting my head on his shoulder

"Thank you" I whispered

"Best apology ever. Except the fact he's desiccated"

Ping
