**Elena's POV**

After I had told Klaus the truth, that it was me who helped Hope, that it was me merely pretending to be Kathrine, I couldn't tell what he was feeling. Was he upset because I had pretended to be her? Was he happy that it turned out to be someone who actually cared? Did he not care whoever it was, and was just happy Hope was safe?

"I owe you Elena Gilbert, for saving my little girl's life." A smile graces his beautiful features and I see his perfect dimples.

I let out a breath I wasn't aware I was holding. "Klaus, it is fair enough you letting me stay here." I tell him, gesturing to the huge beautiful house/mansion.

He shakes his head, disapprovingly, walking in my direction. "That is not pay enough, you have saved my little Hope." I couldn't help but smile, I was glad I helped him with Hope, but of course I would, she was a baby and I was going to do what I could, it was not her fault her father was/is a psycho. He was now standing infront of me"I promise you, I will repay you love" he picks up my hand, bringing it to his mouth, kissing it. I instantly blush from the contact, but I didn't know why. It was a simple friendly gesture.

**Elijah's POV**

As I stood there, watching Niklaus and Elena converse, I couldn't fight the small anger that made its way into me. When he kissed her hand, I felt as though it should've been me making her blush and look down; smiling.

I have been alive for a thousand years and have never felt a feeling like this. I had known I have had a liking on Elena as I had began getting to know her, but this is far from that. My mind suddenly wondered back to the kiss we had shared a few days back, when I had thought she was Katerina.

"I will show you to your room." I suddenly speak, gaining both of their attention. Elena just nods and follows me up the stairs. I lead her to one of the unused rooms.

"Wow, it's beautiful." She smiles at me after looking around the room. "Thank you Elijah, for letting me stay here."

I look over her face before replying "Niklaus is the one who insisted upon it, though I have to admit. I am glad you're here." It was true, Elena made me happy. Living with her everyday? "I will see you in the morning Elena, sweet dreams." I kiss her forehead before exiting the room. I notice Niklaus walking this way seconds later with a piece of clothing in his hand and he smirks at me before entering. I shook the feeling off and headed to my own room.

**Elena's POV**

I hear the knob to my door being turned and turn around to greet the mystery person. "Thought you might need something more comfortable to sleep in, luv" he hands me a tee shirt, his tee shirt.

"Thank you Klaus." I smile and he returns it. "For everything." I meant it, he was actually being decent. Worrying about others and being kind all over.

"Of course sweet heart" it suddenly became quiet, but it was comfortable. We just stood there, looking over each other. He had on a tight black tee shirt; that showed his muscles, and a pair of dark jeans, his hair was golden and beautiful, as always and as I trailed down to his lips I couldn't help but wonder what they would feel like pressed up against mine.

A voice clears their throat at the door and both me and Klaus look at the person, snapping us out if our reverie. He had dark skin, and brown eyes, he was pretty much bald (buzz cut?) He was tall, and he had that familiar look to him.

"Oh my god Marcel?" I question out loud. It was like he just had noticed me, and when he had his hard eyes went soft and the corners of his mouth were curving up.

"Elena!" I ran to him and hugged him, I could feel Klaus's gaze on us and decide to move back. "What brings you to New Orleans?" He asks.

A/N

So you may be able to tell I changed it, a lot. Hope is born but they are still in the house and are still trying to defeat Marcel. Apparently Elena knows Marcel and yeah.

Do tell me what you think. If you like it please vote.
