Klaus & Hayley + Kiss
AN: fluff, klayley family feels, takes place in the same universe as my Klayley wedding One Shot called You've Been Lonely Too Long (which you should read if you haven't already lol).
It was a quiet night, one of the few Klaus and Hayley get these days. Hayley had just finished putting their 2 month old daughter to sleep and Klaus was just wrapping up telling their 3 year old her favorite bedtime story about knights in old England.
Their life had been a chaotic mess the past year. Within a year they went from co-parents of one to married parents of two. They went from wedded bliss to in over their heads after Hayley gave birth a few months after they promised to love each other for the entirety of their immortal lives. The changes were drastic and happened quickly and they still hadn't gotten the hang of it, but they were trying no matter how difficult things were and sometimes things got really difficult. Still Klaus was content with his life and so was Hayley. Neither would trade the joy they've experienced since welcoming Hope into the world with anything else.
Klaus smiled as he tucked a sleeping Hope into bed, planting a tender kiss on her forehead. He sighed and rubbed his face with his palms as he made his way to his quarters.
It had been a long day for him as well as for Hayley with faction business and caring for their two children and all he wanted to do was collapse in his bed besides her and savor this rare night of peace with her in his arms. Only a wrench was thrown into his plans when he reached the room and she was nowhere to be found. He thought for sure she would have been there after putting their daughter down but there was no Hayley in sight. He went to the room next door expecting to find her there in her favorite rocking chair but she wasn't there either. He thought about yelling out for her but if he woke Dianna and Hope up Hayley would stake him in his chest so instead he dejectedly made his way back into the room, content with seeing Hayley whenever she returned to their room. He removed his shirt, slipped into bed and grabbed a book hoping to drift off to sleep soon.
Hayley finally came back to the room 15 minutes later. Klaus looked up from his book when he heard the door knob turn and laughed when he saw Hayley trying to open the door while juggling two glasses of wine and a large bowl of cut strawberries.
"A little help here" she huffed as she nearly dropped the bowl on the ground.
Klaus returned his attention back to his book. "You seem to have it all under control love." He said smirking.
He got up and took the two glasses from her hands while Hayley put the bowl down on the bed and took off her robe. She slipped into bed with him. He handed her the two glasses once she was settled. "I was looking all over for you little wolf…"
"Why? Did you have trouble with Hope? Do I need to go check on her?"
Klaus let out a playful laugh "No she's fine, sound asleep as we speak actually. I was expecting to see you when I returned that's all."
Hayley smiled. "I was in the kitchen. I thought we could use these after the day we've had." She said as she handed him one if the two wine glasses. "I cracked open the bottle you drank our wedding night. Now I can't actually enjoy it with you."
Hayley lifted her glass up in the air as if to toast before taking a large gulp. "To peace" she said.
"And quiet" Klaus interjected quickly after.
Hayley snuggled up to Klaus, who had since abandoned his book, with her glass and her bowl of fruit. He put one arm around her as they sat in bed enjoying the peaceful time alone. Neither wanted to talk about werewolves or witches nor their children so they sat in relative silence, content with just being there with each other.
Hayley finally finished her glass and reached over to put it back on the nightstand. When she tried to lie back down she was intercepted by Klaus, who quickly grabbed her and wrapped her in his arms. He pulled her back close into his chest and removed her hair from her neck so he could have access to her smooth skin. Hayley smiled as she felt his nose against her neck and as she heard him breathe her in. She reached a hand back and tickled the stubble on his face before intertwining her fingers with his hair. She could feel Klaus start to nibble on her neck.
"What are you up to Klaus" she questioned.
"Nothing" he said brushing her upper thigh with his hand.
"You're a terrible liar."
"That's only true when you actually think I'm lying."
"And you're lying right now, making it true."
"Fine… I'm trying to do what I wanted to do when I first entered our room expecting to find you, only to be sorely disappointed when I found you were not here."
"Klaus I know It's been over six weeks but I'm too tired right now."
"Nonsense love you don't get tired you're a hybrid remember?"
Hayley turned her body around to face him. "I know but I'm still tired, can't you just wait, why do you have to ruin a good night with this."
"Who said anything about sex?" He asked.
"You did…you said—"
"Hayley shut up and turn around" he said cutting her off.
Hayley paused and looked at his suspiciously. She didn't know whether to obey or get angry and kick him out of bed.
He gave her a soft smile. "Just do it please."
She decided she didn't want a fight so she obeyed and turned around. She felt Klaus's hands travel up her back slowly.
"Klaus I meant what I said"
"Shhhh just relax little wolf" he said as he let his hands continue to travel up her back. He stopped when they finally reached their destination at her shoulders and gently caressed them.
"What I was trying to say, before you wrongfully accused me of seducing you and trying to have you against your will, was that all I wanted to do tonight was curl up in bed with my wife in my arms on a peaceful night after a tough day. My intentions were entirely pure sweetheart, not that I wouldn't mind more x rated activities of course."
Hayley sighed heavily and closed her eyes, choosing not to apologize to him. Instead she would just enjoy her massage and the fact that her husband wanted to hold her close after a long day. They may have been together for over 3 years now but Klaus still managed to make her feel more loved and wanted as each day passed by.
"That feels great," she moaned as he continued to massage her stiff shoulders. He simply continued, giving her a light peck on her back right shoulder right above her crescent moon shaped birthmark. When he was done he collapsed onto the bed and pulled her close to his chest again.
"You know Hayley, you don't have to explain to me why you don't want to have sex with me. I'm perfectly content with waiting for whenever you are ready again, no matter the reason. Being with you, like this, is enough to sustain me until that time comes."
Hayley turned around to face him. She smiled at him and wrapped her arms around his neck, playing with the back of his hair. "I love you" she whispered, leaning in closer to him.
"I love you too little wolf."
Hayley wrapped her arms around him tighter, pulling him into a kiss. What started off as a tender kiss quickly turned passionate. Before they knew their tongues were dancing, their breathing was heavy and there was no space between them. Hayley sucked at Klaus's bottom lip before abruptly pulling away from him. "I want you Klaus…" she whispered.
"Are you sure? We can go to sleep of you want."
She gave him a seductive smirk as she wrapped her leg around his waist. She moved one of his hands to her waist, pushing up her nightgown, and placed the other between her legs. "Positive" she said nibbling at his ear. He brought his lips to hers and kissed her. He let them travel along her neck and collarbone as be pulled off her nightgown with the hand that was previously around her waist. Hayley panted and threw her head back with her eyes closed in pleasure as Klaus buried himself into her neck. She quickly discarded Klaus of his clothes. He got on top of her, both anxious to join with each other again. Klaus let out a moan as he finally entered her. Hayley panted and moan as they started to make love. That's when they heard the faintest knock on the door. Both stopped immediately when they heard it, knowing exactly who it was.
Klaus threw his head back in frustration as Hayley threw her hands up.
"I thought you said she was sound asleep." She whispered.
"She was" he snapped back.
"Maybe if we're really quiet she'll think we're asleep and go back to her room, then we can keep going" Hayley suggested. They both stayed completely quiet for a few seconds. They thought it may have worked but then they heard another knock on the door, this time It was a little harder and accompanied by a soft "mommy"
They sighed in unison and Hayley pushed Klaus off of her.
"I'll get it" Klaus said as He out his clothes back on. Hayley quickly put her gown and her robe back on as Klaus opened the door. Hope was standing there with her favorite green blanket in her hand on the verge of tears. "What's wrong sweetheart" Klaus asked looking down at her. "I had a bad dream. Monsters tried to get me, real monsters."
"Monsters, bloody monsters are what ruined my first chance at making love to Hayley in weeks" he thought to himself. He reached down and picked up Hope, who was now crying. "It's okay sweetheart. You're safe now." He said picking her up. He brought her into bed with him and Hayley. She quickly laid her head against her mother's stomach and griped her tight. "It's okay baby girl, mom and dad will never let the monsters hurt you. Okay." Hayley softly said to her.
"The next time you see a monster tell him your father will strike him down where he stands, he'll never bother you again." Klaus added.
"Promise daddy?" Hope asked.
"Of course, I'll strike down any monster that tries to harm you or your mother and sister. Always remember that sweetheart."
Hope smiled and made herself comfortable in her parent's bed. Hayley moved a few pillows around to accommodate her. Right on cue and as if they had magically exchanged lets Interrupt mommy and daddy's love making signals through the walls, they heard Dianna begin to cry.
Klaus buried his hands into his face in exasperation. Hayley looked at him. "Don't look at me, she's all yours."
Hayley rolled her eyes and threw off the covers. She picked Dianna up from the crib and brought her into the room. She slid back into bed and bounced the crying little girl up and down to comfort her, to no avail.
"Maybe the monsters scared her too mommy." Hope said with concerned eyes.
"Is that so? These monsters are very bold to frighten my two girls. I may have to call uncle Elijah or Aunt Rebekah for help. We will defeat them all for this won't we Hayley" Klaus joked. "Of course we will, no one messes with our girls, not even the scariest monsters in the world." Hayley laughed. Hope smiled and reached out to touch her little sisters small fingers.
"Shhh see baby, daddy and mommy will help us. We don't have to be afraid of the monsters." She rubbed her sisters hands to reassure her and infant quieted down.
Klaus and Hayley both looked at each other and smiled, their frustration now gone and replaced with nothing but joy watching their two girls bond. Once Diana went back to sleep she laid her in her in bed sleeper and put her next to a sleeping Hope in the middle of her and Klaus. Hayley smiled as she watch the three of them sleep. She walked over to Klaus's side of the bed and turned his face to hers, kissing him. She let the kiss linger for a few moments. "We'll pick up where we left off, I promise." She whispered. "Goodnight love" He replied.
Hayley laid her head down to finally go to sleep and just before she drifted off she felt a hand touch her waist. It was Klaus, holding all three of his girls close as they slept. She placed her hand on his and drifted off with a smile on her face. Despite the interruption it truly was a peaceful night.
