Changing the Future

Elijah POV:
Niklaus and I had just said goodbye to Rebekah. As I turned to look at him I asked: "Why are you truly trying to sacrifice yourself?"

Klaus POV:
Elijah, enough!!!

Elijah POV:
As I truly looked at my brother I realized that he loved Hayley. We both fell in love with the same woman. A woman who never gave up on this family and gave us hope. A woman who I gave up on by choosing to side with another woman who my love did not compare to my love to Hayley. Hayley, is my soulmate. I cannot live knowing she's not here with me. I cannot look at my niece knowing I did not choose her mother. A woman who I helped kill even if indirectly. How can I be on this earth if she's not here to share it with me?

I could not breath or look at life the same without her and as I looked and Niklaus I saw his broken hearted expression and I finally realized Niklaus feels exactly the same way I do.

"You love her, I said."

Niklaus:
Enough with this nonsense!!! Admit it!! Elijah screamed at me.

I do, I yelled back screaming as tears came out of both of our eyes.

Elijah asked why I never told her. I responded, because she was happy with you. Seeing her smile was enough for me. Seeing her live even if it was with my brother was enough for me. Don't you realize that she was it! She never gave up on me. Even when you and our family questioned my intentions she never gave up on me. She helped me understand that my love for any woman before her, was nothing to my love for her. She made me breath. Her touch even when unintentional scarred me and had me wanting more. She was my electricity and and reason to living. I existed to make sure she and Hope had the best life I could offer them. I could never get tired of her. She was it. You said, Hope was my hope. Although my love for Hope does not compare to any woman, the real person who gave me hope was Hayley. How can I be in this earth after she sacrificed herself for us. How can I look at Hope and not see her mother?

Can you fucking understand? I can't breath. I am drowning every fucking second of this eternal misery not seeing her. I just can't.

Elijah POV:
As I truly watched him break in front of me, I realized his love for Hayley was genuine and pure. I have never felt so much pain knowing my brother was hurting.

I apologize, I mentioned. "I apologize for falling for the wom... Stop! He screamed: "Don't you dare apologize. She was the definition of beauty and art put together with passion, compassion, heart, and soul. I can't fault you for falling for her. That was simply who she was. She was hard to move on from and once she reached your soul, she wouldn't be able to leave it. Trust me, he mentioned. I tried to move on. I tried with Cami and every woman I could with but she never left my soul."

Thank you for telling me. No matter what, I mentioned it was one hell of a ride brother!! It was indeed, he mentioned. We both grabbed the white oak and stabbed one another! Always and Forever, I mentioned one last time before we disappeared!
