ALEX'S POV
How could she? I love her and she knows how I was turned and yet she still picks him over me. What is wrong with her? I had to find a way to keep her around. I needed her to live and she was my life. I had to make Sam happy. She turned to me as I walked to the mic. I looked in her eyes and the band started playing. I had told them the songs that I would sing this evening.
WHEN I WAS YOUR MAN-- BRUNO MARS
Same bed but it feels just
A little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio
But it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you
All it does is just tear me down
Cause my heart breaks a little
When I hear your name
It all just sounds like (oooooh)
Mmm too young too dumb to realize
That i
Should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby is dancing
But she's dancing with another man
My pride, my ego, my needs and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I never never get to clean up the mess I made
Ooh and it hunts me every time I close my eyes
It all just sounds like (oooooh)
Mmm too young too dumb to realize
That I
Should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby is dancing
But she's dancing with another man
Although it hurts
I'll be the first to say
That I was wrooooong
Oooh I know i'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know
I hope he buys you flowers
I hope he holds your hand
Give you all his hours
When he has the chance
Take you to every party
Cause I remember how much
You loved to dance
Do all the things I should've done
When I was your man
Do all the things I should've done
When I was your man
I looked towards her and saw her looking at Klaus and he was looking back at her. She had never looked at me that way. Was it me or was it because I wasn't him? I looked towards Damon and he shrugged his shoulders as if he was reading my mind. I had to keep her around, as a friend, if nothing else. The band started playing my next and last song for tonight. I wrote this song after our first fight. This was going to bring back memories to both of us.
WHY-- JASON ALDEAN
It's 3 AM and I finally say
I'm sorry for acting that way
I didn't really mean to make you cry
Oh baby, sometimes I wonder why
[CHORUS]
Why does it always have to come down
To you leaving
Before I'll say 'I love you'
Why do I always use the words
That cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you
Oh baby why, do I do that to you
I know I'd never let you walk away
So why do I push you 'til you break
And why are you always on the verge of good-bye
Before I'll show you how I really feel inside
[CHORUS]
Why does it always have to come down
To you leaving
Before I'll say 'I love you'
Why do I always use the words
That cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you
Oh baby why, do I do that to you
Why do I always use the words that cut the deepest
When I know how much it hurts you
Oh baby why, do I do that to you
Why do I do that to you
I looked at her and she remembered the song as she looked in my eyes. She made her way to me and stood by the stage as I got off and met her by the steps. I looked up and saw all the Mikaelson's, that I just met about 3 hours ago with the exception of Klaus, and they were all staring towards us. I took the last step as I looked behind her and saw her brother, Stefan, was standing close to her. As if to protect her, I would never hurt her.
I stand in front of her with my arms over my chest as she states. "Alex, you need to be happy." I put my hand on her arm and she pulls it away. "You need to find someone to spend your time with that isn't me. We can still chill but not the way we used to. They are having a bonfire later tonight if you want to go and meet the locals. It will be fun." She goes to walk away and I grab her and twist her around til she was in front of me against my chest. "I will do what you ask but don't expect me to be happy about it." I let her go and walked out the establishment. I walked towards the woods, when I heard a voice behind me "She cares about you, you know." I turned to see both Stefan and Damon. The brothers she went on and on about.
I shook my head and said "It doesn't matter. She has him now." Damon started walking towards me and started speaking "You were out of your league when it comes to them two. She hasn't something with him she will never have with anyone else." I looked at him confused and Stefan finished what Damon was trying to tell me "She has history with Klaus. A long history. They have a child and she has a family with them. You can't give her that." I shook my head. Was they supposed to make me feel better? Damon spoke "She still cares for you."
I was getting mad as I said "It doesn't matter. I have no one without her." They smiled and Stefan said "You haven't lost her. She still thinks of you like family. She sent us out here to tell you that you can stay at the boarding house until you can get a place of your own. If you need anything else, let us know. We are family." I was shocked. This was people I had never met willing to help me. What kind of Family was this. I heard a British accent, unlike my own, "You family as long as you would like to be." When I turned to look at Stefan and Damon, expecting to see just the two. I saw 4 originals, 2 Salvatore men and Sam. My eyes got big. Elijah stated "You took care of one of ours so we extend the same hand to help you out. We are family now." Sam smiled and Klaus looked to Elijah. I had never had family before so I hope this will take.
