teenwolf-theoriginals: The number one issue that always had the tendency to start an argument - your safety. Elijah was adamant that whenever danger presented itself, that you would stay far away or remain in the compound. He didn’t want to give anyone the opportunity to harm you. If he could prevent that from happening, Elijah was 100% behind the idea.“How many times do I have to tell you I can protect myself!?”, you shouted to Elijah who remained calm, which for you made the situation worse.“I know very well that can you Y/N, I’m simply asking you to stay here while I go deal with this werewolf issue”. He was speaking to you as if you were a child, rather then a grown adult.“You know what, I don’t feel like being locked away today. But thank Elijah for the concern”. You stubbornly stated, and to show him how mad you were, you marched towards the compound door.Before you even made it halfway, Elijah beat you to it. “Either you remain here purely out of your own free will, or I shall put measures in place that will make it near impossible for you to leave. Do I make myself clear?”.Never had Elijah spoken to you like this, he always respected your choices. And now hearing him throwing around demands, frightened you. Not trusting the strength of you voice, you nodded to show that he was clear.After he left, you let out a shaky breath.All throughout the afternoon, waiting for Elijah to come back. You tried to distract your mind from replaying the scene from earlier. The one where Elijah acted more like Klaus, then himself.But every time you distanced your mind from thinking about it, it made it that much harder to not think about it. Without even meaning too, you cried.Clutching the pillow, you made it to the spare bedroom but once you stepped foot inside, you slid down the wall. Hearing the sound of someone walking up the stairs, Elijah came into view and you saw softness in his eyes. “I don’t know what to say”.Head in hands, Elijah climbed the last 3 stairs and joined you against the wall. “I know you care about my safety, but the way you spoke this morning…I hardly recognized who you were. And it scared me, Elijah”. Hands shaking, he grabbed them in his own and moved in closer.“Forgive me, I never meant for you to become scared for me”.Looking up, Elijah’s eyes were too beginning to well up. “Promise me that you’ll never speak to me like that again, or that you’ll take away my choices. I want to live Elijah, and I can’t do that if you don’t let me”.You leaned onto his shoulder.“I promise you that I’ll try my best”. He whispered into your hair.No-one had the desire to move, so the two of you just sat there watching the moon replace the sun.Masterlist -- source link
