Prompt: Queen
Summary: Liz trying to impress Klaus but it unexpectedly backfires.
It was another day at the academy and I was at the prefect's office organizing files and stack of books as usual but today was different, my grades were going up and I finally had decent control of my magic compared to when I first came to the academy.
Earlier today I got up early and had some spare time so I felt like putting in some effort with my hair and accessories, my mood was soaring and I felt determined to look like I was a big deal, so I put my hair in a sophisticated up do style and used some less childish accessories in my hair to look a bit more mature. I added some of Klaus's previous gifts as my jewelry and finally decided to wear make up for the first time in forever. Amelia helped me with the finer details of my look and finally I was ready to grace the academy with my radiant presence.
As Amelia and I made our way to through the gardens, there were hushed whispers along the way.
"Isn't that the prefect's girlfriend, Hart?"
"Yeah she looks super confident today, did you hear that she's finally stop making so many mistakes? Bet her buddy must be relieved"
Liz smirked at the comments and added a subtle swing to her steps.
She entered the classroom with her head held high and moved around like she owned it.
Elias was bright red as a tomato.
"...H-art? When did change…. your hair?" asked Elias stuttering in disbelief.
"This morning, I felt like a change, is there a problem Elias?" Liz relied with a wide smile.
Before he could answer, Yukiya appeared behind them and took his seat while throwing a comment to them.
"You look beautiful this morning Liz, Klaus is a lucky man" greeted Yukiya casually.
"Thanks" Liz said.
Professor Schuyler walked in and class began.
Later on break, Liz had a crowd gather as most of the males stopped by to comment on her new look. Some of the girls asked for tips and as usual Luka flirted.
News spread fast and before long Klaus had heard about the new gossip about some girl that was nicknamed Queen.
The word was that she was quite the beauty and quite confident and her magical prowess was quite surreal. Who on earth was this interesting wizardess?
His investigation led him to the dining hall and to his surprise and horror, he found his girlfriend hosting a crowd of students and showing off a few new spells.
He watched closely and noticed that she was quite beautiful today, though she looked not at all like his girl, secondly she wasn't behaving like Liz, she was more confident and making a fool of herself with all the fuss. She did remember of how horrible jealous he could be right?
He swept in and wrapped her in his arms and stared coldly at everyone, the crowd dispersed quickly.
"... Bunnyhead! What have you gotten yourself involved in now?" He asked her crossly.
She pouted at him clearly upset that out of everyone he wasn't complimenting on her new looks, being her boyfriend and all.
"Nothing…sorry I'm heading back to class, I'll see you after class…" she replied quietly.
Klaus watched her go feeling a bit bad about his reaction, but mad at the fact she didn't notice of how much unwanted attention she attracted. She was his and only his.
Afternoon was less exciting once Liz decided to cool down her excitement on her new look, all that effort seemed wasted when the one person she wanted attention from didn't seem to care, instead she got the opposite reaction. she guessed that no matter what, she would always be plain and childish.
After class, on her way to the prefect's office she removed her makeup, took off and stored her jewelry and took down her hair.
She knocked twice on the door before Klaus gave her permission to enter.
"Sir I have arrived, sorry for being late, I'll start with that stack over there?" Liz said entering the office, getting straight to work.
Klaus put his pen down and stood up, he crossed the room over to me before taking the paper out of my hands, putting on the table and whisking me over the couch before laying me gently.
He apologized, hugging me tight.
"Liz, I was mad at how you were gaining unwanted attention, not because your aren't beautiful and in every right a queen but you forgot, your my queen and I don't want another crowd of men fawning over you ever again! Tsk and you undid your transformation… I was quite enjoying the view of you being so powerful. Not that I don't love you for you cause I always will" lamented Klaus as he put his face in the crook of her soft neck.
Liz finally smiled; she finally got the only acknowledgment she had wanted all day. She lifted Klaus's face gently and pressed a sweet kiss of forgiveness to his lips.
Yes she was the Queen and he would forever be her King.
