Hey you guys so like I promised this is the very first chapter of my new story Eternal Lovers. I hope you guys like it.

As you guys know I don't follow a particular storyline but I do try to start off using an original plot from either the show or movies and then go from there.

This story starts off following the events if Eclipse after Victoria is killed and Bella decides she can't marry Edward and decides to leave Forks and she moves to New Orleans to help her cousin Cami deal with her brother's death and run Rousseau's.

This also takes place during season one of The Originals and yes Hayley is in this story and is also pregnant with Klaus' baby. As I stated I'm not following an exact storyline seeing as how I tend to do things my own way and go with the flow.

So sit back relax and be sure to tell me what you think.

Read, review, and enjoy!

Its been two weeks since Edward and I split up for good this time and I decided it was time for a change. I spoke to my uncle Kieran who is my mom's older brother and he told me that my cousin Cami was still having a difficult time dealing with her twin brother's death.

I brought up the idea of possibly moving to New Orleans to help her run the bar she owns which is Rousseau's. He said that would be a good idea although he really wanted her to move to Florida with my mom but he didn't see her leaving New Orleans and he thought she could use the company.

When I brought the idea up to my dad he thought it was a great idea as well and thought it would be a good change for me to leave Forks for a while anyways.

"Maybe you can take some classes with Cami while you're there but know you are always welcome back home if and when you are ready Bella."

"I know dad but I'm really excited to see what New Orleans has to offer."

New Orleans Three Weeks Later

"Bella will you watch the bar for me I have to run and pick up some supplies?" Cami asked me.

"Yeah sure I will be fine seeing as how the noon rush is over."

I found I enjoyed working at the the bar and I was able to manage it quite well when I was alone which wasn't often. Only when Cami ran errands or whatever but I still enjoyed it.

I was starting to learn some of the names if the regulars. On my days off or when I wasn't at the bar I was usually at the church spending time with my uncle or at my apartment which was right next door to Cami's.

I smiled as Marcel one of the regulars came in and sat down at the bar.

"Good afternoon Bella how are you today?" He asked with his Colgate smile.

"I'm great as always Marcel and yourself?"

"I'm good, so where's that gorgeous cousin of yours?"

"She actually just left a little while ago to run some errands. Would you like your usual?"

"Yes if you don't mind." I fixed him a glass of Bourbon and we chatted for a little while longer before another customer walked in and I went to get their order.

Marcel was a nice guy and very handsome and I could tell that he was really into my cousin and they tended to flirt with each other as often as possible whenever they were around each other.

I walked up to the table with the customer who had just entered and looked into a pair of gorgeous blue eyes and noticed he had curly blond hair.

He looked at me a spoke with a British accent that had me weak in the knees. "Good afternoon love, I don't believe we met. I'm Klaus and you are?"

"Bella, what can I get you Klaus?"

"Bella, what a lovely name for such a beautiful woman, and I will have Bourbon neat."

I walked away feeling hot all over and wanting to melt into a puddle at just the sound of his voice.

I fixed Klaus drink bringing it back to him nearly tripping in the process but I managed to catch myself before I fell and made a fool out of myself.

After quickly setting Klaus' drink down I made my way back to the bar noticing the stiff look on Marcel's face when he noticed Klaus sitting at one of the tables.

"So Bella how are you liking New Orleans, so far?" Marcel asked me when I got back behind the bar.

"I'm loving it actually. Its a lot bigger then Forks and its a lot more to do here."

"I'm pretty sure you would really enjoy some of the nightlife. Maybe I can take you and Camille out one night with a few of my friends. Its important that you don't wonder out alone here at night. It can be dangerous for a young single woman as yourself."

"I would love to but I would hate to put you out and danger is like my middle name." I said laughing at my own joke. If only he knew the things I have experienced.

"Trust me on this just promise that you won't wonder the streets at night alone I know Camille loves you a lot and I would hate to see something happen to you." Marcel said while getting up and paying for his drink.

"Ok, I promise." I said before giving him his change and watching him walk out the bar.

I checked on some of the other customers before making my way to Klaus again.

"Do you need a refill?" I asked him.

"No thanks love." He said while standing and reaching into his pockets pulling out a hundred dollar bill. "Keep the change." He said giving me a dimpled smile.

"Do you realize you gave me a hundred?" I asked him quietly.

"Yes, I know have a good day love. See you later." He said while making his way out the bar, leaving me to watch his back shocked.

"The way you are standing there holding that hundred dollar bill is my guess that Klaus was just here." Cami said standing in front of me.

"Yes, how did you know?"

"He does it all the time and that was my reaction the first time he did it to me. Trust me he takes some getting used to. He usually comes at night though I made him come this early?"

"Well anyways Marcel, stopped by and even offered to take the both of us out with a couple of his friends one night but made me promise not to go wondering the streets of New Orleans at night alone." I told Cami watching her facial.

I knew Cami liked Marcel a lot and I didn't know how she would feel about up a date of sorts for her with him even if I had to fake sick that night she was going.

"That sounds like fun I haven't been out in a while. Did he say when and what night?"

"No but he made it seem like it would be one night soon." I said happy that she agreed.

I quickly left the bar following Marcel out.

"What do you want Klaus?" Marcel asked without turning around to look at me.

"Well since you asked so nicely I was wondering if you would take me along with you when you take Bella and Camille out?" I said.

Marcel stopped walking and turned around to face me. "Why?"

"Because I would like to get to know Bella if you must know. There's something about her that I can't put my finger on plus she had a scar on her wrist that looked like a cold one bite mark but she is not a cold one so I would love to know the story behind that."

"I noticed that also but don't you have a baby on the way, what makes you think she would be interested in dating a guy with a baby on the way?"

"Please that's a technicality and she doesn't seem like the shallow type. Just say you will take me or do I need to go on a killing spree?"

"Alright I will take you, once I know what day they are free I will let you know." He said before leaving.

I don't know what it is but it was something else about Bella that caught my attention as well and I hope I will be able to figure it out. One thing for certain is she was absolutely stunning.

So that's the end of the first chapter be sure to tell me what you think and don't worry things will start to pick up pace as the story moves along.

If you have any questions just ask and if there is anything in particular you would like to see or certain characters let me know and I will try to make it happen.

Don't worry you will all find out what happens to the Cullen's and everything soon like I said I tend to go with the flow and I wanted to get their meeting out of the way.

Don't forget to review and tell me what you think. Plus reviews make me update quicker especially if they are good.

Until next time...
