After searching and searching. She couldn't find elijah. He'd been gone to long now for this to just be him leaving. No something was up. She needed to find elijah and speak to him. After their fight the other night after drinking and then when she'd caught up with him afterwards... this was all her fault. Wasn't it ? Sitting down by the water at the bayou she stared out at it, resting her head on her knees thinking back to the last conversation she had with Elijah.
(A couple of Nights ago)
She was so pissed off. Alcohol and she didn't go well together anyway. But all the blood and violence that was mixed in with it she was hard to control her temper. She'd stormed out and was sitting at the river watching the riverboat go along the river. She didn't want to head all the way to the bayou and this was the second place that she could get some peace and calm down. She needed to go speak to Elijah. Talk to him calmly. But first she would have to find him.
Sighing she got off the bench and started walking slowly back to the compound hoping he was there still... if not she would try where he and katherine were staying.

After the beast had broken loose from its cage Elijah had felt the anger consume him and had lashed out at his brother Niklaus. He had never acted so impulsive before and he had already begun the battle of the demons that he had long ago caged. He was nothing like his brother and never wanted to be, for so long he had been named the noble one but right now he felt nothing like that man.
Seeking solace in a bar on the outskirts of the French Quarter seeking peace and quiet. With the bar empty and the bar tender compelled to close the bar except to him. With a bottle of bourbon in front of him and a half empty glass. He raised the glass to his lips and drained the amber liquid in a mouthful. Letting out a slight wince at the foul tasting liquid, it was nothing compared to how it tasted 50 years ago.
Pouring himself another glass to the brim, he took a moment before repeating the same process in draining his glass.

She'd had no luck at the compound. Or at katherine. So she was going to do it the hard way. sniff him out. Although in her human form she had a fantastic scent. In her wolf form it was even better. Elijah couldn't avoid her for long. She would find him and they would talk.
Following the trail outside of the french quarter to a little bar she smirked. She could smell the alcohol and it wasn't from the bar. Walking in she spotted him and walked over to him taking the bottle of bourbon before he could grab it. "Don't you think you've had enough of this already tonight ?" she asked

Elijah was about to grab the bottle of bourbon again so that he could pour himself another drink when it was snatched out of his grasp, craning his head he soon spotted Hayley. "Hayley" he sighed as his voice mimicked irritation as the alcohol had already began to affect him.
"When one is immortal. Why should one not indulge in various tastings of New Orleans finest bourbon" he smirked.
Grabbing hold of the bottle from her hand, he poured himself another glass "Please. Join me in some rather exquisite liquids" he grinned and reached over the bar and pulled out another shot glass.
"Will my brother be joining us? I fear that this establishment would not survive another refurbishment" and poured Hayley a glass.

Glaring she took hold of the bottle after he poured her a glass and launched it across the room, before pouring the alcohol out of the glass onto the floor. "I think you've had enough of New orleans Finest bourbon. don't you ?" She asked smirking back at him.
"No Niklaus will not be joining us. You and I need to talk Elijah. without the drunken haze. Without Nik coming in. Just you and me. Or are you going to run off again ?" she mocked him. "Hide away from me like you do everything else ?" She asked snapping before she calmed herself down.

Elijah craned his head watching the bottle of bourbon smash against the wall and turned back in his seat as he sipped slowly on his full glass. Not looking forward to talking about whatever Hayley had chosen as her topic of conversation. But he was curious to know what she had to say to him.
"Please, continue" he waved out his arm and raised the glass in mid air before draining it in a mouthful. Elijah was never one for heavy drinking but he believed that tonight was an exception "And what would you like me to say Hayley? What wise words of wisdom would you like me to bestow onto you?" he turned to face her raising his brow waiting for her answer.

She glared at him. "you walked out. I told you something that i've been trying to not admit. I am FALLING for you Elijah. How many times do i have to keep saying it. I need you. But I'm not good enough for you. Look what i did to you today. NONE of this would of happened, the ignoring. the you trying to kill Nik again. None of it. If i had just left you alone. I don't know what i want you to say Elijah. Just.. say ... something before i lose my mind and leave."

Elijah let the glass roll between the palm of his hands as he listened to Hayley's words. Memories of what had happened earlier that evening were fresh in his mind. Like a poison that he could not cure, anger and rage flooded every inch of his body.
He had allowed the monster that he had been buried deep inside of him to break free. No matter how many pristine suits he dressed in, how noble he was, at the end of the day he was still a monster.
Turning his body fully towards Hayley listening more intently to her words as his brow arched as he replayed his words over in his mind "Have you heard yourself Hayley? You speak of words that you do not know. How can you love someone who lashes out at their brothers, someone who was seconds away from murdering their own flesh and blood?" he pressed his hand against his chest "To love and loathe the very thing that you are? I am a vampire, something that you despise in yourself. How can you love someone like me?" he grunted out

She grit her teeth and narrowed her eyes at him. "Because i have seen more than that in you. You are a vampire. an Orginal, yes. Yet I know deep down you only hurt those that are your enemies. True yo lost it today. Everyone loses it at one point or another. Would you honestly say you would of Killed Nik if i wasn't there. If you had the chance ?" She asked raising a brow at him. She knew the answer was no. Because that was Elijah. "I despise the monster in me Elijah, but I Can't help who i love." She said taking his fink from his hand and downing the rest of its contents.

Hayley had snatched his glass from his hands, with hardly enough for a mouthful left in his glass. He ran his hand through his hair "Niklaus and I have our ways Hayley. We step across some imaginary line that only Niklaus can see he places a dagger in our hearts for the next 100 years" he pinched his fingers together to express his point.
But Elijah pondered Hayley's question. Would he have really killed his brother because he had lost himself in the moment? No. He wouldn't have. But he would have made his point very clear to his brother and along with a snapped neck and several other bones to make sure that Niklaus understood.
"You have known me only a matter of months Hayley. What you see in front of you is not the man that I am. What you wish to see is nothing more than a façade. I cannot be who you want me to be" he assured her.
Elijah knew that he was hurting Hayley by saying these words, but she had to know exactly who he was and what he was capable of.

It felt like he hit her with a ton of bricks with his last sentence. Clenching the glass in her hand until it shattered she glared at him. "It's been over a year Elijah. a year in which a lot has happened. When i have seen you and looked after you at your very weakest. When you have looked after me at mine. But if this is all a facade ? Then fine. You believe what you want to believe. You're being a coward Elijah. At least face up to it." She snapped before she slid off the bar stool to walk away from him.

Coward. Yes, maybe Elijah considered himself a coward but he could admit that to himself. He could name himself a lot of things and coward was on the list, possibly in the top five things listed in his mind. He heard the bar stool scrape against the wooden floor as he craned his head to the side avoiding her gaze. Elijah knew that he had hurt Hayley, and he was hurting himself with what he was saying.
"...Hayley" he called to her. When she turned to face him, he climbed off his own bar stool. Standing still for a moment whilst he calculated his next move. He could see the pained and angered expression on her face, the angle of her body, the anger that rolled off her in waves of frustration and disappointment.
Taking her silence for a moment, he sped over. His hand wrapping around the back of her head as he kissed her with a fiery passion.

Closing her eyes as she felt his lips touch hers with such fire she wrapped an arm around his waist. Falling into him into the kiss. His lips. his scent. All of it so over bearing for a moment it made her forget what they had been talking about a moment ago.
After a moment she pulled away, opening her eyes to stare up at him. "Come back to the compound Elijah. Lets sort this out. Please." she practically begged him, her hot breath on his lips.

Elijah broke the kiss between them, his forehead resting against Hayley's as he let out a breath. His eyes closed as he heard her words, he could not go back. Now now. Not after everything, he did not trust himself around anyone right now.
Hearing her plea to return home, he took a step back and sped out of the bar leaving Hayley alone. He couldn't do this right now. He had already betrayed his words and had gone to Hayley when his mind had screamed out no.
He couldn't go home, he needed to cage the beast inside of him once again.
