1920s
Klaus sat at a table with his drink watching Rebekah dance with Stefan. He saw happy she looked and smiled. He always wanted her to be be happy.
Within five minutes Klaus went to take a sip of his drink but stopped when he heard cops outside Gloria's, getting ready to shoot through the wall. Within 30 seconds, the shooting began. Rebekah and Stefan ran behind the bar. Klaus watched them run, took one more sip of his drink and got up to go get her.
When Klaus got to them, he grabbed Rebekah's arm and pulled her up. He looked at Stefan and said "the three of us need to leave now!"
Stefan nodded and they quickly ran out of the bar. They reached Klaus and Rebekah's car and hoped inside. Klaus sped out of Chicago as fast as possible.
"Stefan, are you willing to spend what could be an eternity with Rebekah and I?"
Stefan knew his answer "Nik, Im in love with Rebekah, of course I will." Rebekah smiled at him and reached for his hand.
"very well then, welcome to the family" Klaus said with a smile.
Stefan smiled back. He finally found someone that he could love just as much as he thought he loved Katherine. He hated what Katherine did to him for over 50 years but now that hate was gone. If Katherine had not turned Stefan, he would have never met the love of his life Rebekah Mikaelson.
