Rebekah stood in front of her brother she knew the answer to the question that she was about to ask but she wanted to make sure."Answer me this question do you still love her?"

"I always will Rebekah." Kol hated himself for everything that he had put her through and he didn't think that there was a way that he could ever fix things between them.

"She's at Marcel's condo don't mess up this time. Cause i had never seen her that broken then night i found her on the steps of the church. She would never hurt you ever. Doppelganger can get pregnant and she was one of the lucky ones. Go."He nodded and flashed out. Rebekah ran her fingers through her hair she really hoped they were able to recover and be better than they were years ago. She needed them to be for her nieces and nephews."Was that stupid."

Hayley shook her head she understood why Rebekah did it. And she hoped that they weer able to find a way to get through everything now."No. They deserve their happy ending after everything that they went through they deserve to finally be a family."

Rebekah sighed she understood her brother a little bit but that didnt make her feel bad about anything that she had ever said to him."If he would have went back to Elena after getting with Davina she was sure as hell going to kill them all."

Freya nodded she know they got lucky in getting Davina today and she was happy that they did."Davina's not easily killed we had the jump on her today and we outnumbered her."

Elena was standing by the window looking out she had took so alcohol from his cart. She needed it after what had just went down. She heard someone flash in and she knew exactly who it was. She didn't get why he was here not sure if she even wanted to talk to him."What are you doing here?"

"I never should have doubted you." He knew that he had let how he had been done to in the past effect his relationship with Elena and he shouldn't have done that.

She turned to face him after all these years she didn't even know if she could stay mad at him."16 years to late." She didn't want to see him she hated how things had happened 16 years ago.

"I didn't know you knew i was following you." He had been careful when he was following her because he didn't want her to find out.

"Yeah you messed up i had heard something outside my house and used my magic to find who it was." She had been surprised to see Kol wondering what the hell was he doing out of New Orleans. She didn't like that he was following her she didn't need someone loking after her."What were you doing in New York?"

He regretted his kids growing up without him and he knew that there was nothing that he could do about it."Maybe i wanted to make sure y'all were ok."

"We were doing just fine without you." She had her friends help she didn't need his help ever.

"I know?" He knew that she did do a good job raising them despite everything that he had put her through."Yeah i figured that when i watched you raise them."

"I didn't need you I had Freya Rebekah Hayley, even Marcel we made sure that they still got to grow up together i never needed you." She never needed him then and she didn't need him now her life was going perfectly fine. At least that was what she was going to keep telling herself until she was positive it was true.

"I get it i'm a horrible person do you even think that i realized long before this." He did he realized that he had messed up he knew that he had ruined the best thing that he had ever had and he didn't know how he was supposed to fix it.

"I don't care if you noticed you never came to see me you never came to apologize. You get hurt all the fucking time i would never hurt you and yet you thought that i was lying about me being pregnant with your children. Your wife tried to kill them she tried to kill me because even she knew that they were yours."Elena knew that he had trust issues but he should have trusted her enough to believe her. He should have known that she would never lie to him then."Freya knew and her Hayley and Rebekah have been planning revenge for a long time. Years they have watched waiting for the time they could finally enact there revenge for what she did for me. You should have been the one to do that i guess you really don't love me anymore all those promises that you had made before i moved to New Orleans 17 years ago had just been lies." She turned back around downing the rest of her drink she needed to calm herself she didn't need him to be getting to her now.

He knew that he had done a lot of things to her but never had he lied to her"I may have been angry when you told me but never once did you lie to me."

"Hmm thats funny then if you knew longer then when i figured out that it was you. Then why didn't you say anything." She turned back to face him that was something that she wanted to know. Why had he never come back for her if he knew that he was in the wrong."Why did they have to grow up without a father why did they have to grow up with a mother that was withdrawn. You made me that way they are Carbon copies of you and you know it especially Evie she looks just like you and acts like you and no one can lie about that. They have your blood pumping through there veins. They have your tempers and my attitudes. They have both of our need for revenge that makes them worse than Hope. Cause whether or not any of y'all will admit it your the most dangerous of your siblings and thats why they put you down over and over again."She knew that maybe he deserved a chance maybe he was trying to keep them safe. But she could take care of herself her kids could take care of themselves."Thats why Rebekah issued all those warnings when we started dating because she knew that you would hurt me. You would fuck up and let your past get the best of you and that is on you and not on me and it never will be."

"I was trying to protect you." He did he knew that when he did find out that Elena had never actually lied Davina or someone was going to try and hurt her to get to him.

She scoffed and rolled her eyes their were ways to protect her he was not just trying to protect her."I don't believe that for a second."

"What would Davina have done if i left her to go back to you." He didn't want to imagine her getting hurt because of decisions that he had made.

She took a breath that was not an excuse. If he wanted her dead there were ways to get it done. He had allies he had siblings they could make it happen."Its called take her life i just did it."

"You a witch an original and a hybrid."

Elena tightened the grip on the cup and it shattered in her hand."Evie could have killed her with her eyes closed that is not an excuse." She turned back around she was angry anyone of her kids at 7 could have taken Davina and he couldn't that was a problem.

He knew that she was right he was just making excuses but e didn't know what else he was supposed to say he messed up."Fine how about this after everything that you have been through after i hurt you i couldn't do it again i wouldn't do it again is that what you want to hear. That i couldn't risk breaking you again that i knew that i fucked up the first time and i thought that you wouldn't forgive me. I was scared that i lost the best thing that i ever had and that there was no way that i was going to get you back. No matter how hard i tried. I ruined my chance at a family two different ways. I lost you and a chance to have kids of my own. Because of what i did i put a rift between me and my sisters me and Hayley even Nik and Elijah couldn't stand me. My own niece looked at me with hatred and i deserved it. I knew that i deserved all their anger that nothing would change what i did to you. But i still love you and nothing will ever change how i feel not after two decades when we first met at my mothers disaster ball. Not after everything the two of us went through not after you saw good in me and saved me that night. Not after you stood up to your friends and brother to be in a relationship with me. Not after you gave up your dreams so that you could move here with my family to New Orleans even though you knew how dangerous it was going to be for you to stay with me to be apart of this family. That you were always going to be a target because you loved me. I lost your trust i could of ha what i have always wanted and i thought that the person i loved most in the world had played me with something thought to never be able to ever happened and i thought that it was a lie and i couldn't take it. Because of what i did the one person that i had chose to love had betrayed me but instead i had betrayed you and lost the love of the one person that truly understood me."

"I never stopped loving you even after everything the two of us went through." She wiped the incoming tears turning around. She would always love him but she was not going to make it easy for him."After you turned me away after you got with her. I never stopped i didn't know how. Trust me i wanted to but it wasn't possible. if anything is ever going to change between us you got to prove it to them. And let me tell you good luck with that Evie and Liv are teh easy ones but Noah is just like you he just looks like me. He'll fight you every step of the way no matter what the girls want. "
