A/N: So, I decided to start writing again. This is the first story I publish on here. This first chapter is a little boring, I know, it will get better, I hope. The summary is not the best, but well. There may be some spelling mistakes, I'm Spanish, that means English is not my native language, I'm good at it, but I still make mistakes. So I apologize in advance!

I decided that it would be a Kol story because he's one of my favourite characters and he's got a lot of potential and I wanted you all to see what's on my mind about this character.

I rated it M for future chapters!

I just hope you enjoy it and that you leave some feedback!

Chapter.1

My name's Alexandra Danielsson and I've been living with the Mikaelsons since I was five years old, so by now I consider myself a Mikaelson. My parents were friends with them, but one day they left me in front of the Mikaelson's house and left without explanation. They never came back, so the Mikaelsons adopted me as their child even though they already had a lot of children. Mikael and Esther had always taken care of me; they were like parents to me. I owned them everything.

Living with five young boys and only a girl was very difficult and stressing some times. But I handle it well. I loved all of them to pieces, but, especially Kol, he was my best friend since I arrived to this house. He was two years older than me. He had always been there for me; always taking care of me and protecting me. He was the one who would always come to my bed when I had a nightmare, the one who would try to calm me down and tell me that everything was going to be alright when I felt down, the one who had seen me cry and the one who always made me laugh when I needed it the most.

When he started growing up he changed a little but, he turned cheekier and loved causing trouble in the village. But he still was my friend and I wouldn't have changed him for anything in the world.

I was walking through the woods with Rebekah, we were collecting some fruits together for the dinner.

- So, Bekah, did you accept to go on a date with Joseph? –I asked her, she turned red and smiled.

- I don't know if I should, to be honest. –she looked down.

- Oh, Bekah. You like each other, you should accept. You turn red every time I talk about him. –I smiled. –Just go on a date with him. –I encouraged her.

- Okay, I'll go on a date with him, Alexa. –we both smiled and I hugged her. – What about you? Did some gorgeous man set eyes on you? –she asked.

- No. –I answered. –No man likes me, Bekah. Why would they like me if there's you? –I wasn't jealous of her, but I had to admit that she was more beautiful than me. She had long curled blond hair and gorgeous blue eyes, while there was me with long curled brown hair and hazel eyes. I was nothing compared to her.

- Don't talk non sense, Alexandra. You're gorgeous! Look at you! Every man would like you! –she tried to cheer me up.

- Thanks, Bekah. But I don't believe it. –I kept on collecting the fruits. The rest of the time we spend there, I kept quiet. I didn't want to talk about it anymore. And Rebekah understood it, because she didn't say a word.

When we arrived home, I left the baskets in the kitchen and walked out of the house, and walked again through the woods, I need to talk a walk alone. I walk to the lake; I liked to go there when I need some time to think. I kept on walking till I arrived there. On my way there, I heard some noises coming from behind a bush, I stopped, maybe it was just a rabbit or something like that. I was about to start walking again when someone pushed me against a tree. I hit my head with it and flinched in pain. I opened my eyes and saw a man standing in front of me.

- What is such a beautiful girl doing alone in the woods? –he looked at me with a cheeky grin. My breath quickened but I tried to stay calm.

- I was going home. –I answered trying to hide my fear.

- Why leave so soon? We could have some fun. –he approached his lips to my neck and started kissing it. I began to tremble with fear.

- Stop. I want to go home. –I tried to push him but he didn't move. He was stronger than me.

- You're not going anywhere, beautiful. –he kept on kissing my neck, and then my jaw line.

- Please, leave me alone! –I was begging. – Stop it! –I slapped him. He looked at me and suddenly he hit me in the face, I fell on the ground. He quickly grabbed my arm fiercely and made me stand up and pushed me again against the tree and started to undress me with one hand while the other was stroking my thigh. I was crying and wishing he would stop and that someone would come to my rescue, but what was I thinking? I was alone with this man who was going to rape me and no one would save me. I couldn't stop crying.

- Stop crying, we're just having fun. –he kissed my lips but I didn't kiss back, I bit his lip and he hit me again. – You, whore! –he lifted my dress up and with one hand he started roaming all over my body while the other was stroking my thigh. I was trying to push him away, but I couldn't, I closed my eyes and let him rape me. But, suddenly I heard a loud crash, I still didn't want to open my eyes. I was really scared.

- Shhh! Alexa… It's me. –I recognized the voice. But I couldn't dare to open my eyes. –Shhh, love! It's okay. –I slowly opened them and saw Kol in front of me.

- He was going to rape me. –I cried and he hugged me tight.

- It's okay now… He won't touch you. –he tried to comfort me. –in that moment someone pushed us and Kol fell over me.

- And who do you think you are? –the man who a moment ago was trying to rape me, shouted at Kol. I saw Kol standing up and facing him.

- You filthy bastard! Don't ever touch her again or you will be dead! –Kol punched him hard in the face and when the man was in the ground he continuously kicked him in the stomach. –That will make you learn no to rape a woman. –when Kol stopped hitting him, he came back to me. I was still lying in the floor, very scared. He picked my up with his strong arms and started walking to the village. I was still trembling but he was trying to comfort me but whispering in my ear that it was okay that he wouldn't hurt me anymore. I kept on crying till I fell asleep in his arms.

*Kol's POV*

I walked to our house with Alexandra in my arms, she had cried a lot and fell asleep. I'm glad that I arrived in time, if not that man would have raped her and I wouldn't forgive myself for that. I had to protect her, she was my best friend and I loved her.

I kept on walking till I arrived to the house. I saw mother running to us looking worried and so looked Rebekah. Klaus and Elijah who stopped fighting with their swords approached us.

- What happened, my son? –mother asked me.

- A man tried to rape her in the woods. –everybody looked shocked. –But I arrived in time.

- He's dead. –screamed Niklaus.

- Niklaus. –mother looked at him. I saw how Elijah's fists clenched. Rebekah had her hands on her mouth, she looked very shocked.

- What's wrong? –I heard father's voice from behind.

- They tried to rape Alexandra in the woods. –answered mother. –Kol saved her.

- What? –father looked furious, Alexandra was like a daughter to him and he couldn't let something like that happen. – Did you kill him? –father asked me.

- No, father. I hadn't my sword with me.

- You always should have you sword with you, Kol! –he shouted at me, I just looked down. – I gave you one and trained you to use for something, boy!

- Mikael, calm down. –mother approached him.

- Bring her inside; we're going to search that bastard. –ordered father.

- I'm coming with you. –I said.

- No, you're staying with her. Elijah and Niklaus are coming with me. –I nodded and they left.

*Alexandra's POV*

I slowly woke up. It was very dark and I was in my room. I looked around and saw Kol asleep on a chair next to my bed. He looked so peaceful, I didn't want to wake him, but I didn't want to let him sleep in that uncomfortable chair. I sat up and approached him. I slightly shook him so he woke up.

- You're awake. –he said while trying to adjust to the darkness of the room. I didn't say anything; I tapped the bed and moved to the side, signalling him to lie down next to me. I didn't want him to be uncomfortable while I was lying on a bed where the both of us could fit perfectly. He stood up and stretched a little bit before getting into the bed with me.

- Thank you, Kol. –I said looking at him.

- You don't have to thank me anything. –he looked with his hazel eyes into mine. –I will always protect you. I won't let anything happen to you. –he said while hugging me tight. I lay my head on his chest and he started stroking my hair. If somebody from the village had seen us at this moment they would have thought that we were together. But we were always like this, it was nothing new, we always acted like this when we were together.

I let myself fall to sleep again, I was tired and I couldn't keep my eyes open and with Kol stroking my hair it was way more difficult, I was feeling more sleepy.

- Sleep, Alexa. You need it. –he kissed the top of my head. And I drifted of to sleep.

I was running through the woods, someone was following me, I kept on running, the branches hitting my body, it hurt and I was bleeding but I couldn't stop, not now, that someone who was following me would catch me, so I tried to forget about the pain and I ran for my life, but I tripped with a log and I fell to the floor, I must had broken something because I felt an excruciating pain in my right leg. I tried to move but I couldn't, the pain was holding me back, but I couldn't stay there, that someone was going to catch me. I tried to drag myself forward to escape, but something grabbed my leg. I hissed in pain, it was my broken leg.

- -Where are you going? –that someone asked me. I couldn't see its face.

- Don't touch me! –I screamed trying to kick him with my other leg. –Leave me alone.

- Shut up! –he put more pressure in my broken leg and I screamed in pain.

- Kol, please help me. I need you. –I called for my best friend in hope that he would appear.

- No one's going to save you. –the strange man approached me and tried to rip off my dress.

- Don't, please! –I kept on screaming. I was really scared but I couldn't do anything to stop him. I just hoped someone would hear my scream. – Leave me alone! Don't touch me! Help! KOL!

I felt a pair of hands on my shoulder; I kept on fighting, kicking and hitting that body that was now over me. I had to free myself.

- Shhh, Alexandra, it's me, Kol. –I shot my eyes open and saw Kol over me looking very concerned. I was breathing heavily. –It was just a nightmare, love. It's okay. I'm here. –he tried to calm me down.

- What's wrong? –it was Rebekah's voice; I had woken her up with my screams. She looked at us from our bed.

- Nothing, don't worry Bekah. She just had a nightmare, that's all. –Kol explained her.

- What are you doing in her bed? Father will kill you if he sees you. You're not children anymore. He doesn't like you sleeping together. –she said. I was still trying to control my breathing.

- Shut up, Rebekah. Will you? –Kol looked at her sister, he was mad. She just rolled her eyes and turned around in her bed.

- Don't say I didn't warn you… -she whispered, but we could hear her, Kol just snorted.

- Are you okay? –he asked me. I nodded. –Just try to get some sleep; I'm here with you, okay? –he stroked my hair and I lay my head on his chest, falling asleep once again.

When I woke up in the morning I was alone in the bed. Kol must have sneaked out so Mikael didn't get mad at him for disobeying him. I stretched a little bit, but I hissed in pain, my body hurt from the incident from yesterday. I didn't want to think about it. I just got up and walked to the kitchen. Everybody was there having breakfast.

- Good morning, Alexandra. –Esther greeted me.

- Good morning. –I greeted all of them.

- You won't have to worry about that rapist anymore. We took care of it. –informed Mikael. I nodded and sat down between Henrik and Rebekah.

- I looked around but I didn't see Kol.

- Where's Kol? –I asked.

- He left very early; he said he had some things to do. –Esther looked at me. I stood up and they all looked at me. – Aren't you going to eat anything, love? –Esther asked me.

- I'm not hungry. If you excuse me. –they all nodded. I walked to my bedroom and changed my dress into another one; I didn't have the occasion to do it yesterday after all what happened. I heard a knock on the door.

- Alexa, can I come in? –it was Henrik.

- Of course. –he opened the door and I smiled.

- I want to go to the lake to play, but no one wants to come with me and mother only let's me go if I don't go alone. Would you like to come with me? Say yes, please, I want to go and play, Alexa. –he pleaded.

- Okay, I'll go. –I smiled. –Get ready. –he nodded and hugged me, then he ran off.

We both walked to the lake, Henrik had brought two wooden swords, he gave one and then he looked straight into my eyes.

- Fight for your life, Alexa. –he said. I chuckled. –You know I'm very good at it, don't laugh. –he wasn't lying, he was very good at it, Kol, had taught him how to use a sword. – You know Kol taught me! –I remembered when he trained with Kol and smiled.

- And what if you don't win? It will not be easy. –I smiled cheekily.

- We'll see that. –he started fighting. He was good and fast, but I fought back, I also knew how to use a sword, Kol had also taught me few things, even though Mikael didn't like when Rebekah or I grabbed a sword, he said it was a man's thing, that woman shouldn't touch a weapon. It was too dangerous. I fight for a while, till I stepped on my dress and I feel over. Henrik pointed at me with his sword.

- Do you give up? –he looked at me. I raised my arm, Henrik followed my every move, and let fall the sword in the ground.

- You win! –I said.

- Yes! I won! I'm the best! –he ran around very happy that he had won. I smiled seeing him so excited.

- Well, well, what do we got here? –I saw Kol coming out of the woods. Henrik ran to him.

- Kol! Kol! I won! I won the sword fight! –He jumped and Kol grabbed him in the air.

- Very good, little brother! Congratulations! –he nuzzled his head. He let Henrik down and walked to where I was. I was still sat on the ground. He held out his hand for me to take it, so he could help me stand up.

- It's good to win, Henrik, but if you fight against a woman, you always have to let her win. –he looked at his brother and then at me.

- But that's not fair! I want to win! If I let her win, I'll be a loser. –protested Henrik.

- But that's not gentlemanlike, brother. You always have to let women win. You have to learn that. –he nuzzled again his head.

- Okay… -said Henrik.

- Now go and play a little bit. But don't go to far away, always close to us, you hear me? –Kol said to his little brother, he just nodded. – Were you having fun? –he asked me while sitting on the ground, I did the same.

- Yes. It's always good going out with Henrik. He so full of energy, I love that. –I said. – And as you don't have too much time for me lately… You're very busy. -I looked at him.

- That hurt! –he put his hand on his heart pretending it hurt. I laughed. – I always have time for you.

- I missed those times when we were younger; we used to do everything together. –I looked at the beautiful view I had of the lake.

- I grew up and so did you, but I'm always here for you. –he made me look at him. And we can always make things together like when we were children. –he smirked. That wasn't good.

- Like what? –I was afraid to ask. He just looked at me, he stood up and grabbed me with his strong arms.

- No, Kol! Stop! –he ran to the lake and when the water arrived to his knees he threw me at it.

- Idiot! –I shouted when I emerged from the water. He was just laughing at me. I ran to him and tackled him with all my strength making him fall in the water with me over him. He looked at me, all his hair wet, he looked mad, but suddenly we both burst out laughing like two little children, and then we stopped and looked at each other, still smiling.

- Are you two going to kiss? –we turned around and saw Henrik in the lakeside looking at us.

- We were just having a laugh. –answered Kol. I stood up and help him get up and we both walked to where Henrik was and we sat down.

- Alexa, did you already have your first kiss? –Henrik asked me, my eyes widened. –I know Kol already had his; he kissed lots of different girls. –Kol rolled his eyes. I got lost in my thoughts. My first kiss… It was with Kol.

*FLASHBACK*

I was fourteen and Kol was sixteen, we were both in the woods, we were sat on a huge rock. He had just given me a flower he had found and I was smiling while looking at it.

- Did you already have your first kiss, Alexa? –I looked at Kol, my eyes widened. I didn't know what to answer; I knew he had already kissed many girls. I didn't want to say that I didn't maybe he would think I was weird.

- Yes…-there was a pause. He looked at me. –I mean… No. –I looked down. He made me look at him.

- Can I be your first kiss? –he asked me. –It's just a kiss and you're my best friend, so it's nothing weird. –he smiled. I turned red. He waited for an answer. I just nodded shyly. He stood up and held his hand for me to take it. I stood up. He came near me and looked me straight into the eyes. I felt one of his hands on my waist, he pulled me closer and the other he brushed a lock of hair from my face. He then stroked my face and came closer. I could feel his breath on my lips. – Close your eyes. –I did what he said. I felt his soft lips on mine, at first I was shocked but then I got used to feel his lips on mine. I liked the feeling. I liked that Kol had been my first kiss and not anyone else. It had been so special. I never knew how it was to kiss someone, but now thanks to Kol I knew it.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

- Alexa! Alexa! –I heard Henrik calling me.

- Uhm, what? –Kol and Henrik were both looking at me.

- Henrik was asking if you already had your first kiss. –said Kol while smirking, he was thinking the same as me.

- Yes. –I turned red.

- And who was it? Do I know him? –Henrik was curious.

- I don't want to talk about it. Anyway, why do you want to know it? –I asked him.

- I like a girl and I want to give her a kiss. –Kol and I chuckled. –But I don't know how to do it. Could you show me?

- Of course we can! –Kol stood up. –Come on, Alexa. –I looked confused. –First step: You have to look her straight into the eyes. –Kol explained. –Alexa please, stand up and help me explain it to Henrik. –I was still in shock but I stood up. –As I said, you have to look straight into her eyes. –Kol did was he was explaining, I looked straight into his eyes, trying not to look away; I was a little bit nervous. –Then you have to get closer to her. –he came closer. –One hand can go here, to pull her closer and keep here there. –he put a hand on my waist to pull me closer. –With the other hand I will brush a lock of her hair from her face. And then I will stroke her face like this. –he did all what he said. I was very nervous at this moment and I knew he could feel it. –Don't be nervous, you already know how it goes. –he smirked. – And slowly you face starts getting closer to hers. –I felt his breath on my lips. –You close your eyes and let your lips touch hers. –I waited for his lips to touch mine, but it never happened, I opened my eyes and saw Kol smirking at me. –And that's how you kiss a girl! –he turned around to look at Henrik. I was still confused and felt embarrassed, I thought he was going to kiss me.

- But, you didn't even kiss her! –complained Henrik.

- I let that to your imagination! –he smiled. –Now that you know how it goes you can practice with the girl you like. –he winked.

- Let's go home. Esther will kill us if we don't arrive for lunch. –I finally talked changing the subject. I started walking, Kol walked next to me. I felt a little bit uncomfortable, but I didn't let him notice it.

- Are you okay? –he passed an arm over my shoulders.

- Yes. Why wouldn't I be okay? –I smiled. He just smiled back.

- Let's go, little fighter. –Kol called Henrik.
