Prologue: April walked along the street as she made her way to the Grills. She took out her phone and checked for the time. She believed that she still had time to get herself a drink and a salad for supper. She walked into the grill and sat at an empty table.

Chapter 1: The Meeting.

"Hey! April may I take your order?" April looked up and saw Matt stood in front of her while holding a small notebook and a pen.

"Ermm... I would like to have a cup of tea and fruit salad." She looked at Matt and then looked down.

"Hey! Is everything okay?" Matt asked as he took down her orders.

"Yeah everything is fine. I am not that typical teenage girl who just moved back to town and feels lost." She said looking at him with her cold blue eyes. Matt nods and walked away. April took out her diary and scribble lazily on it.

After waiting for about five minutes, her orders arrived. She put her diary at the side and ate her salad quietly. Her mind is just full of unwanted things. Discovering the existence of vampire and the one where her dad blew up the council. She was still wondering the reason why he did that. Her mind stopped thinking suddenly when there was a good-looking guy sat in front of her and gave her that devilish smirk.

"Sorry but do I know you?" April asked.

"No, you don't. You must be my sister's friend, April Young right? I am Kol Mikaelson." He took her hand and left a gentle kiss on it.

April quickly let go off her hand. She stood up and packed her stuffs. She left her unfinished food on the table and left Kol behind.

Kol stood up and followed her from the back.

"What is wrong love? I was just trying to be nice and make friend with you?" He smiled innocently as he vampire speed in front of her. April frowned slightly and walked away.

"Walking away from me is surely not a good sign." He held her right arm tight and turned her to look at him.

"I tried to be nice and friendly here and you ignored me. Now I should use the opposite way." He frowned as he tilted his head to look at her. Veins began to appear under his eyes. He leaned close to her neck and bit it. April screamed in pain.

Suddenly she felt the presence of another vampire. Rebekah pulled out Kol from April's neck.

"Feeding on April is surely not a good move, brother." Rebekah bit her own wrist and fed April with her blood so that the wound would heal.

"She ignored me, sister. You do know that I hate to be ignored. I was being nice at first but then she kept walking away from me so I decided to use the harsh way." Kol's face was back to the human form.

"April darling, go home and rest. I shall deal with my brother." Rebekah's voice was calm. April looked at Kol in fear and started walking home.

"I won't stop until you are willing to be my friend or better as my toy to play with. Keep that in mind, April dear."

April stood in front of her house door and she unlocked it with her shivering hand. She was still in fear of Kol. There was a little bit of regret in her for ignoring Kol. Now, she realized that Kol will hunt her and might appear out of nowhere. She entered the house and locked the door. She threw her bag on the couch and the keys on the table. She made her way to the kitchen and poured herself a glass of ice water. She walked out to the living room and turned on her television. Her vision began to fade and slowly, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Chapter two: Obsession

"You didn't have to do that, Kol!" Rebekah walked into the mansion and slammed the door.

"Pretty much I don't care, sister. I don't care if she is your friend or not. All I asked was to be her friend and she ignored me completely." Kol's voice was calm but there was anger in it.

Both stopped their argument as they heard footsteps walking down the stairs.

"What is the fight about, darlings?" Klaus walked down the stairs; smiling slightly but with his serious look.

"It is none of your business, Niklaus!" Kol replied looking at Klaus with his narrowed eyes. Klaus vampire speed to them.

"Anything that you brought up in this mansion is going to be my business. Now spit out the problem." Rebekah gave Kol a glare and looked at Klaus.

"Our brother here has a little obsession with my friend, April Young. He bit her earlier on just because she ignored him!" Klaus gave Rebekah the look.

"Rebekah darling, you do know Kol's attitude right. He can't be ignored or else he will get upset. And you Kol, there are a lot of woman out there. Why chase for that pure, innocent, young Miss Mystic Falls?" Klaus looked at both of them.

"Her purity that makes me wants her. The smell of her blood flowing inside her arteries surely gave me the temptation to make her as my little pet to be played with." Kol sounded playful when he said the last sentence.

"Don't you dare to touch her again? You heard me!" Rebekah gritted her teeth as she said that. She was being protective of April because she owes her one. She promised her to give her protection and surveillance.

Kol walked upstairs and ignored Rebekah's warning. He didn't give any damn to her warnings. He does whatever he wants. No one could stop him. Not even Klaus or Elijah. Kol entered his bedroom and lied down on his bed. April kept appearing inside his mind. Her raven hair, cold blue eyes, her red lips.

"I can't have feelings for her. That is impossible!" Kol thought to himself.

April woke up from her sleep. She realized that she had felt asleep on the couch. She looked at the clock and it was three am. She switched off the television and dragged herself up to her bed. Just when she was about to close her eyes, she remembered the sentence that Kol said before she left.

"I won't stop until you are willing to be my friend or better as my toy to play with. Keep that in mind, April dear." April gasped the word "won't stop".

She wondered why he is trying so hard to be her friend. Was it because she saved his sister or there is an agenda behind it? April pulled out the blanket and fell asleep. Meanwhile, Kol lied down and stared at the ceiling. He hated the feelings that he is having now. He is a vampire. He can't easily fall for a girl especially a girl like April.

The next morning...April woke up and stretched lazily on her bed. She dragged her feet lazily to the bathroom and took her morning shower. After a ten minutes bathe, she put on her robe and walked down to the kitchen. She poured a bowl of cereal and a glass of fresh orange juice. When she was about to put the first scoop inside her mouth, the doorbell rang. She put down the spoon and walked to the door. When she opened it, standing in front of her was the blonde original, Rebekah Mikaelson.

"Hey! I came here to apologize on behalf of my brother's rudeness yesterday. He just hated being ignored." Rebekah looked at her thoughtfully.

"That is alright. Would you like to come in? I was about to have breakfast. You can join me though." April said calmly as she tried to forget what happened to her last night. Rebekah smile slightly as she got invited in. Just as when April was about to close the door, Kol stood in front of her.

"If you can allow my sister to enter, why can't you let me in, my dear April?" He gave her that devilish smirk on his face while holding the door using his strength. Rebekah vampire sped outside and pin him to the wall.

"Didn't I tell you to stay away from her?" Rebekah gritted her teeth.

Kol turned and pin her to the wall harder.

"Didn't I tell you that I pretty much don't give a damn to your warning? She is my toy to be played with and pet to keep me entertained!

April stepped outside and held Kol's hand that was on Rebekah's throat.

"Let her go. I will be your friend, pet or toy. Just stop hurting my friend." Kol let go of Rebekah and turned to April.

"Well, that was easy for me to make you agree. We shall start all over again then." He smiles widely as he looked at April.

Chapter three: Fresh Start

"My name is Kol Mikaelson. What is yours, love?" Kol held out his hand making an offer for her to take it. April breath heavily and looked at him.

"I'm April Young. The daughter of the man who blew up the council." She accepted his hand offering.

"Why don't you leave sister? I am going to have my own time with my new friend." Kol turned to Rebekah. "Promise I won't hurt her." He added. Rebekah looked at Kol's eyes. She knew she could trust him especially with that kind of eye contact he made with her. Rebekah vanished.

"Come love, why don't you invite me in so we can talk more and get to know each other better?" Kol stepped closer to April, giving her the please look.

"It will be better if we just sit here." April insist on inviting him into the house. She was still in fear though. Her heart pumped so fast that she could feel and hear the beat.

"As you wish, love." Kol sat down on the step of stairs in front of her house. April looked at him thoughtfully, thinking how much effort has he put in to get to know her.

"Alright, you can come in, Kol." She stepped inside of her house as she invited him in. Kol stood up from his seat and speed in front of her. He gave her that charming smile on his face and stepped inside.

"Thank you, sweetheart. Now shall we have our new friend bonding session?" He sat down on her couch and leaned back. April sat opposite him not wanting to get any closer to him. She looked down and noticed that Kol is eyeing on her.

"Why did you run away from me, love? I was just trying to be nice and friendly back then." Kol's accent and voice made April looked up at him.

"Stop calling me love, sweetheart or whatever nicknames that you could give me. I ran away from you because Elena had warned me about you. You are the meanest of all." April's voice was calm but there was a frown on her face. Kol laughed a little when he heard Elena's name being mentioned.

"Elena Gilbert? Well she don't really stand out the crowd unlike you dear April. She didn't even win the Miss Mystic Falls so she has no right to warn the queen." Kol said as he glanced the Miss Mystic Falls crown. April rolled her eyes and walked to the kitchen and came back with two cans of soda. She handed it to Kol. Kol took the can and hold onto her hand tight when she was about to get back to her seat.

"Why don't you sit next to me? I won't bite you...for now." He tightened his gripped. April turned and looked at him.

"Let me go, Kol. You are hurting my hand." April begged him. Kol, who was still holding her hand tight, stood up and looked at her cold blue eyes. He then felt something on April's wrist. He brought her hand up and looked at the bracelet.

"Vervain bracelet huh? Interesting, you can't be compelled. This will make things better." He pulled back the bracelet and lean April's wrist near his mouth. April's heart beats even faster when she felt the cold breathe out of Kol's mouth. She managed to free herself and pushed Kol down to the couch. She quickly ran upstairs and locked her door.

April leaned her ear closed to the door trying to listen to Kol's footstep. She assumed that he was gone. Just as she was about to sigh with relief, she felt someone's presence behind her.

"I told you not to test my patience. Now you are making me mad." Kol's eyes began to become darker and veins appeared under it. He vamps speed behind, cover her mouth and tilted her head so that her neck will face him. He let out his fangs and sank it down on her arteries. April was struggling in pain. After a few seconds, he let go of her.

"Don't you dare to move, you making me lose my temper, little April." He bit his wrist and held out his wrist near to April's mouth.

"Drink love, so you're neck would heal." April having second thought about drinking his blood. First he bit her and now he is healing her with his blood. What is on this guy's mind! April didn't want to disappoint or upset him once again; she took his wrist and drank his blood. He pulled her closer while stroking her hair.

For once, April didn't let go of his wrist. She kept drinking his blood as if it tasted delicious. Kol smiled devilishly and quickly snapped April's neck. Kol didn't waste any time. He carried her to her bed and sat next to her dead body. He looked at April's face and slowly caresses her cheek. From that moment he already knew he is in love with her.

Chapter four: the Awakening

Kol sat next to her and wait impatiently for her to wake up. He thought of getting some late night snack while waiting for her to wake up. Just when he was about to leave the room, he heard a loud gasp and quickly vamp speed to April. April's head was spinning around and her vision was blurry.

"What the hell did you do to me, Kol?" April freaked out.

"You drank my blood. Seems like you enjoyed it so, I decided to snap your neck and let you die. Now that you come back to live, you are a vampire sweetheart." Kol sat next to her. He pulled her closer to him and hugged her tight.

April's emotions heightened. Her feelings towards Kol slowly changed. From the feeling of hate, it slowly evolved into love. She hugged him back even though she was still in shocked and was still able to feel the pain on her neck. Kol turned his face so that his lips met with April's neck. He kissed it slowly. April turned to him and pushed his face slowly.

"You fed me with your blood, snapped my neck and now you are trying to seduce me! No way in hell you are going to get me." April stood up weakly and left her room. As she got down, Kol was already there holding a blood bag on his hand.

"Easy love, you need to feed. I want you to take this blood bag and drink it." Kol who had already knew she is sired to him gave her that devilish smile and handed her the blood bag. April walked down the stairs and took the blood bag from him. She ripped it off and drank it. Veins began to appear under her eyes. She looked at Kol with her vampire look.

"Now we are even, love." He pulled her closer to him, wiping her mouth that is covered with blood. He kissed her forehead.

"There are a lot of girls out there but why me. Why did you pick me, Kol?" She looked into his eyes. Kol smirks and pulled back her hair behind her ear.

"I will tell you that sooner or later. I promise that I will take full responsibility of you especially now you are sired to me." Kol narrowed his eyes as he studied her expression.

"Sired? Mind explaining that to me?" She raised her eyebrows. Her face was filled of curiosity. Kol sighed and looked at her.

"Sired bond is the link between creator-creation. Whatever the creator orders, the creation will obey and do it. Like for example, I told you earlier on to drink from the blood bag and you did." Now Kol began to feel regret. He wanted April to love him without any siring but on the other side, he knew April would stay and be loyal to him. April looked down at the blood bag and sipped it.

"We shall go hunting tomorrow or do you want it to be tonight? You make the choice." Kol bows to her. April looked at him and sat on the couch.

"Tomorrow night! I'm tired. I need to rest." She leaned her head on Kol's chest, tugging it deeper and closed her eyes. Kol smiled widely when she did that.

"Goodnight, little April. Rest well my love; there are a lot of things to be learnt tomorrow." He kissed her hair and carried her to bed. He lied her down on her bed and covered her with blanket. He smiled slightly and lied down next to her and watched her sleep.
