My love will never die~Chapter One.
Evanna had been living in the booming city that was New Orleans in the state of Louisiana for a couple of years now. She had a steady job in a large law firm on avenue. As a child growing up Evanna had a hard time, her adoptive parents had mistreated her to the point that it was abusive but as soon as she turned eighteen she made her escape and moved to New Orleans.
Evanna was making her way to her slightly shabby apartment after joining her work colleagues for a social evening in one of the local bars, needless to say she was slightly tipsy which was most definitely not a great thing at this time of the night especially with some dodgy characters hanging around the streets and alleyways. Sure Evanna had done this before on occasion so it did not exactly phase her but it did always come with potential risks.
Klaus however was walking on the opposite side of the street when he spotted the blonde woman who seemed to be walking without company so he decided to make his way over to her. He cleared his throat and spoke in his strong british accent, "Excuse me miss, I was hoping to accompany you home, New Orleans is not exactly safe at this time of night." He definitely was not trying to be creepy about it but she reminded him of someone, a certain someone to be exact that he knew from years gone by. "Oh of course, I would actually appreciate it. Thank you." She responded as she turned to look at the man who was standing beside her, she was not creeped out by him at all actually Evanna thought it was a lovely gesture. "It would be my pleasure, I'm Klaus by the way." He introduced himself and offered his hand to her. "It is lovely to meet you Klaus, I'm Evanna, Evanna Gilbert." She said as she shook his hand and smiled, even her smile was pretty much the same as hers, the way her eyes crinkled, she was too similar. He had to get to know her...
The pair walked along the quiet dimly lit street, "So where are you from Evanna, if you don't mind my asking?" Klaus asked the young blonde woman. "I lived in Atlanta, Georgia for my whole life. However I moved here to New Orleans once I turned eighteen." she explained to him. "Oh wow, Atlanta is nice." He commented. "Yeah it was, that is not why I made the move though." She answered, her move was nothing to do with her home city but it did have absolutely everything got to do with her adoptive parents. "Oh of course, I understand. I did not mean to pry. I do apolologise." He said with a weak smile, he felt pretty bad for asking now but then again it was not like he had known in the first place. "It's alright Klaus, don't worry about it." Evanna said as she returned the smile.
A few minutes went by as the pair walked the New Orleans streets to Evanna's apartment in silence, it was not an awkward silence, it was more of a tranquil one. Evanna spoke to break the silence between the two of them, "I really do appreciate this Klaus, thank you." she smiled slightly. "It is no problem at all, I'm only doing as any gentleman would."
The pair eventually reached the tower block that contained the apartment that Evanna lived in. "Thank you again Klaus" She said as she stopped at her door. "It is no problem at all Evanna, there is one thing though..." he said as he looked down, he was not entirely sure if he should ask her or not but he went ahead anyway. "I would like to see you again, here is my number. Text me sometime." He grinned, eagerly awaiting her answer.
