Daniel Gillies has said that Elijah is in love with Elena on The Vampire Diaries.
The 35-year-old revealed that he hopes the Original vampire will express his feelings for Elena (Nina Dobrev) at some point on the CW series.
"I know it's a little obvious in the world of Vampire Diaries, where everyone falls in love with Elena, but I agree that Elijah sees something beautiful in her," Gillies told The Insider.
"I would love for him to express that to her before he goes," he continued. "I feel like Elijah would be most drawn to her because she's living a better life than people who've lived for centuries longer.
"I think that's the sort of thing he's attracted to," Gillies insisted. "Even it was just a moment, I'd love to see them share something - but I think it should be more."
Gillies recently returned to the CW series after he was resurrected by Damon (Ian Somerhalder).
Joseph Morgan, who plays Klaus, said in December that he would love to see a battle between his character and Elijah.
The Vampire Diaries airs on Thursdays at 8/7c on The CW.






She really does. It should be unsettling, but it's not. lolRebekah has amazing (romantic) chemistry with her brothers![]()

. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty tired of every male on the show falling in love with her but still...I want Elijah and Elena to get together. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty tired of every male on the show falling in love with her but still...
because they have NEGATIVE chemistry!)
. And I get it, but I still ship Elijah/Elena because I like Elena much more in her scenes with him and because look at all the chemistry and eye!sexing!
I guess what I meant to say was how cliche or predictable it would be for another male character (i.e. Elijah) to develop feelings for Elena.
I don't recall ever seeing any Elijah/Elena action going down!? Or was that Katherine? 
It was their first meeting, and it looked like he was going to kiss her, but sniffed her instead. It was pretty damn awesome, because people were probably thinking WTF, is he kissing her? And then he just sniffed her, hehe.
. Don't care for Bonnie, Matt, (Tyler), Jeremy either. I think their characters are boring and the writing is just terrible for them.
