Chapter Sixty: Bad Things Happen

I told Nik and Elijah that I had to leave after Nik blurted out the ridiculous question of me choosing between him and Elijah. So I got dressed and went back to my house, when I got there Jenny was sitting in the couch and yelled at me to go in there. She's usually really laid back and cool about what we do, but I guess overnight wasn't the smartest idea. She came up to me and immediately noticed I was drunk, so she asked where I had been, I told her I was at Nik's house and someone brought some champagne to celebrate me winning Miss Saint Falls, so she understood, but she said not to do it again or there would be major consequences. I was glad she let it slide. But now the big problem, how would I choose between Elijah and Nik? Elijah is passionate, dangerous, sexy and mysterious. But Nik is honest, lovable, compassionate and serious. They're both fun, sweet around me, they both know they can trust me and that I can trust them and they let their guard down when they're with me because they both love me. But that's the problem, if I choose one, I'll most likely lose the other because both of them will always love me! But then I thought about recent events and how Nik wasn't able to control himself, what if that happens when we're together and Elijah isn't there to stop him or save me, I could end up dead or hurt. That wouldn't get me anywhere. But Elijah has been there for me, more than I could have ever thought he would, and he can control himself perfectly, of course he gets a craving for blood, but all vampires do, he got the good part of being a vampire, Nik however, he got the bad parts. How can I have a future with someone who can't learn simple self control, but I couldn't have a future with either most likely, but for now, Elijah would be the better man. And I know, I've had a thousand amazing times with Nik, but recently, Elijah has been there even more than anyone has in my whole life! So I know who I was going to choose...I would go to him and tell him...

N: Hayley asked Caroline to take her to Elijah and Klaus's house, where she would reveal who she chose to be with...

Hayley's POV: It was raining when Caroline and I were driving. While we were crossing the bridge on the way to their house the turn started to get slippery and the tires started to spin, we ran off the bridge and that's all I remember...

Klaus's and Elijah's POV: We got a text from Hayley saying she was ready to make her decision, but she didn't show up for awhile. So we got worried and went out looking for her...we found tire marks off a bridge near our house, then we saw the car sunk in the river beneath it! Caroline and Hayley were drowning under there, it took awhile to open the door, we managed to get Caroline's side open, Hayley was still awake and begged us to take Caroline up first. And when we went back down to get Hayley, she was dead, she had drowned. Now all we could do is hope for her to wake up. Then, a few hours later we saw her waking up, Hayley was alive. She was up breathing heavy and scared...
