A/N Thank you so much for the reviews, follows and favs. I'm glad people like this, now to clarify if anyone is unsure, there will be no Hayley and no Hope because season 4 of TVD never happened and also I ship Hayley and Elijah on the Originals. And Finn will be explained later but he just doesn't fit this story
I don't own TVD or TO
Chapter 2
The next morning Elena is about to head out when Thierry appears next to her.
"Marcel says for now at least, I'm coming with you" he says.
"I'll be fine Thierry, Rebekah is the only one with a real reason to want me dead" says Elena.
"Better safe than sorry, I don't want anything to happen to you Lena, you're my friend, and my best friends girlfriend it's in the rulebook" he smirks.
"Alright, I'm meeting Cami at Rousseau's I also want to see if there have been any whispers as regards Sophie and the witches" adds Elena as they head out.
As they walk into Rousseau's Elena spots Cami in the corner.
"I'll be at the bar" smiles Thierry as Elena heads over.
"Hey" she smiles.
"Hello to you to" smiles Cami.
"So how'd it go?" asks Elena.
"Pretty good, almost top marks" smiles Cami.
"Well done Cami, you worked really hard on that paper, you make me interested in Abnormal Psychology" laughs Elena.
"Good to know" nods Cami.
Elena just smiles and sips her drink, despite Marcel's best attempts the moment she tried to sleep she couldn't help but see the originals, Elijah didn't bother her as much and Klaus had no use for her anymore, Kol was psychotic and unpredictable, and Rebekah still seemed bitter.
"Okay what's wrong, I know your brooding look" says Cami.
"Nothing" replies Elena.
"Don't bullshit me Lena, I can see something is wrong, tell me" urges Cami.
"Some people from my past have come back, and lets just say I didn't part on the best of terms with one of them, and she's a little nutty, plus they have a history will Marcel, the girl doesn't like me, and she used to date Marcel" explains Elena.
"Ah, ex girlfriend, that can't be good, was it serious?" asks Cami.
"Very" replies Elena.
"But he loves you Lena, surely they broke up for a reason" says Cami curiously.
"She left, but she thought he was dead, long story but it isn't like she left because they fell out of love" explains Elena.
"He loves you Lena" soothes Cami.
"Maybe but I think she may want him back, if just to spite me, I dated another one of her ex's and she got pissed when she found out about it" adds Elena.
Cami reaches over and takes her hand, "oh honey I'm sorry, but I am sure Marcel wouldn't even dream about it" says Cami.
"It's not him I'm worried about its Rebekah, she's petty and vindictive and god does she hold a grudge" says Elena.
They sit in silence when suddenly a shadow appears behind them.
"Hello love" smirks Klaus.
"Klaus, Cami this is Klaus, he's Rebekah's older brother and an old friend of Marcel's, Klaus this is my friend Cami" introduces Elena.
"Nice to meet you" nods Cami and Elena can see her checking him out, she couldn't fault her, she may not like the man but god was he not sex on legs.
"The pleasure is all mine" he smiles taking Cami's hand and kissing it softly.
"What do you need Klaus?" asks Elena.
"Well I was headed to the compound when I saw you in here, I was hoping we could talk love, have a catch up" he explains.
Cami's phone rings and she pulls it out.
"Hey" she smiles.
Elena hears Father Kieran's voice on the phone.
"Yeah I'll be there in a minute, I've got to run Lena, I'll talk to you later, nice to meet you Klaus" smiles Cami as she heads out.
The moment she was gone Thierry appeared next to Elena.
"I see you have a guard dog, I thought you left the Salvatore's in Mystic Falls" smirks Klaus.
"What do you really want Klaus?" asks Elena.
"I meant what I said love, a catch up chat, seems I've missed a lot in the six months since you left us" says Klaus.
"Its okay Thierry, not even Klaus is dumb enough to do something in public" soothes Elena patting his arm.
"You sure?" asks Thierry.
"I am" nods Elena.
He nods and backs away as Klaus orders a drink.
"So what do you want to know Klaus?" asks Elena.
"How my little doppelgänger from small town Mystic Falls, ends up the new vampire queen of New Orleans to start with" he offers.
"I met Marcel my first day here, he knew I was a vampire and that I had a daylight ring, we hit it off, things progressed from their, do you want the gritty details?" she snorts.
"So when you left us you came here, quite a trade up my doppelgänger has made, a queen, a crown suits you my dear, but I can see, some of that shine is gone" notes Klaus.
"You helped with that, and I am not your anything Klaus" she says sipping her drink.
"Really love, I built this city, I made Marcel, I suppose he thinks of himself as my heir and he was like my son, practically makes us family Elena" smiles Klaus.
"No it doesn't and I've seen what you do to your family and what you did to mine" she replies coldly.
"Still sore about that one are you love, good to know, so tell me how do you know the witches aren't up to anything?" he asks.
"Unlike you I'm actually someone capable of making real friends" replies Elena.
"Sure that's it, just your sunny personality huh?" he asks.
"Yep" nods Elena.
Klaus looks at her, this Elena was different clearly her six months in New Orleans had changed her, he hadn't heard anything about her from the Mystic Falls group, she must have really meant it when she said a clean break, he had to admire her though, the crown she apparently wore really did suit her, much better than it would've Katerina.
"If you're done I have things to do" she says standing up.
"What minions to order about, a city to rule?" teases Klaus.
"You're the one who has minions, not us" says Elena as she walks out, Thierry joins her at the door and they walk out into New Orleans and its busy street.
"You okay?" he asks.
"I'm fine thank you" she assures squeezing his arm reassuringly.
They head back to the compound and Marcel appears as they arrive and motions for her to come up.
"What?" she asks taking his hand.
"D called me, Jane Ann Devereux did a spell last night, she isn't sure what but she used magic, you know the rules" explains Marcel quietly.
"So do they, we need to do this Marcel, especially with the Originals around" says Elena.
"I know I just wanted to check with you first" he nods.
"Aw how sweet wanting to check in with me" she smiles.
"Always, what's a king without his queen" he replies.
"Let's not find out" she replies.
"Might it have something to do with Klaus thinking a witch has a grudge against him?" muses Marcel.
"Maybe but, who knows, I know lots of people who have a grudge against Klaus, but it could be trouble if its part of a larger plan" says Elena.
"We can think it over more later, maybe talk to the witches after we deal with Jane Ann" suggests Marcel.
"Sounds good, though they won't like us much" reminds Elena.
"They never do" says Marcel with a chuckle.
"I'll see you later" smiles Elena.
"Love you" he smiles hanging up.
"Love you" she replies as she pockets her phone.
A/N Hope you liked it, let me know what you thought, I will use some things from the Originals but change it up to suit my story :)
