Disclaimer: This is an AU: which means everyone's human and this story centres on the Salvatore's and the Mikaelson's…. I must stress that in MY world… Rebekah is NOT a part of the Mikaelson family, she is a part of the Forbes Family and the Mikaelson's are the Smiths…. Don't like it, don't read it. Anyway let's go on with the show.
Sunlight streamed through the open window of Scarlett's bedroom. She hated getting up and facing the day, especially now since her older brothers Damon and Stefan had left home, she didn't feel whole without them. She could never manage a real smile or a real laugh without them. Most of the time it was fake and her Father Giuseppe would never catch on.
After getting dressed and walking downstairs Scarlett made her way to the dining room and stopped seeing Mikael Smith. She fought back an eye roll at her Father's business partner and put on another fake smile. She walked straight over to her father, kissed his cheek and said
"Morning Daddy, did you sleep well"
Giuseppe smiled at his daughter unaware that the smile was fake. He kissed her forehead then stood up and pulled a chair out for her, pushing it back under the table when she sat down
"I slept very well bambina, how did you sleep"
Scarlett half smiled and filled her glass with Orange juice then looked at Mikael and her father. She thought for a while then smiled brightly and said
"I slept very well, thank you Daddy. How are you today Mr Smith?"
Mikael smiled at the girl in front of him, blissfully unaware that Scarlett's happiness was fake. He picked up his glass of Orange juice taking a sip before setting it down and replying to Scarlett's question
"I am well thank you Scarlett…. Giuseppe your daughter is a very well-mannered young lady, I don't know why you worry so much"
Scarlett smiled, a real genuine smile then started eating her breakfast, listening to her Father and Mikael friend talk about work and his sons. She looked up at the doorway as Mikael stood up from his seat
"Ahh Niklaus, just in time my Boy, Giuseppe, this is my third eldest son Niklaus"
Scarlett smiled and bit her lip as her Father said hello to the attractive man in front of her. He was gorgeous with blonde curly hair, dimples in his cheeks and baby blue eyes.
"things are just getting interesting" Scarlett thought to herself as Niklaus flashed her a dimple filled smile
