I'M FINALLY BACK! My deepest apologies for not updating for what seems like years, but guess what? EXAMS ARE FINALLY OVER!
WRITERS NOTE: Here's the third chapter, just to warn you there may be a hint of reference to Frankenstein in this – been watching it in English; a brilliant film if you haven't seen it. I may update later tonight if I have time. ENJOY AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE REVIEWS, FAVOURITERS AND FOLLOWERS!
HENRIK IS 2 YEARS OLD COMING THREE.
BRITISH FORBES
A small boy's voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Mommy, where is Daddy? I heard shouting" her little baby; her beautiful baby boy. He was so advanced for his age. His voice sounded shaken. She and Nik never argued whilst Henrik was in the house, yet alone being two doors down.
Little Henrik Elijah Mikealson had small dirty blonde curls laid upon his head, an already perfectly chiselled jaw; which he had inherited from his father. However, the one thing was stood out to everyone was his eyes. His left eye had a dominant vibrant royal blue colour; however he had a spots here and there which were green and a golden colour. In his left eye he had a forest green dominant colour, however the same as his right he had spots of blue and a golden colour making an appearance. A mixture of both his parent's eyes and his hybrid side sneaking out.
Yes, Henrik was a hybrid.
He would remain a normal child till the age of 18. On his 18th birthday he would be given the choice to drink human blood and become immortal or stay mortal; regardless of which choice he would inherit his hybrid powers. It was in his blood.
Before Caroline she could even process what Henrik had said to her, Nik came swaggering out the door in his robe. She had always loved him in that robe…
This was all a big joke he was pulling. Henrik was obviously part of the plan too.
Well that's what she thought until Henrik rain to him and jumped, latching on to his torso and Nik pushed him down to the floor with quite some power, then walked out the door with his head held high like he was actually proud of what he had done.
She quickly scrambled down to the floor to pick Henrik up; who was now in floods of tears and bruises were already starting to form on his lower spinal area.
What had happened to her love?
Henrik was hanging on to her for dear life. If it wasn't for her vampire strength she would have easily of been bruised by the tightness of his grip. She began rubbing his back in an attempt to comfort him when she heard a wail. She had touched where he was bruised, he was in more pain that she intentionally thought.
No-one touches my baby, not even his own father; especially not his own father.
She had not noticed the warm liquid running down her cheeks. She too was crying.
Why was her Nik acting like this? Had something happened to him?
She needed answers.
She lifted herself with Henrik in her arms from the floor and went to stand at the window. She needed to see him; she needed to see his facial expression.
That's when she broke down into floods of tears.
He was just walking; walking away from her; his son, and then a moment of hope passed through her when he turned around. He looked like her Nik for a second then she saw it.
She saw Klaus, she saw the man who had come to Mystic Falls with full intention of Elena.
She needed answers and she needed them now.
That's when he saw her. He slowly approached her not trying to be too forthcoming. He gently tapped her on the shoulder.
"Klaus" she said almost cheerfully.
"Elena, I presume"
"What are you doing here, where's Caroline and Henrik?"
"Ah, Caroline and Henrik" he said evilly.
His pupils dilated and so did hers.
"Start from the beginning of mine and Caroline's relationship and happenings and tell me everything up to this very moment"
For a moment he thought she was on vervain, and then her mouth opened…
"Caroline finally gave you a chance, ignoring all our warnings. She said she was sick of you stalking her all the time so she took you up on a date. You took her to a little restaurant. She said she loved that night. That was the night she started to fall in love with you," she said with a smile emerging on her face, "After that date you took her on many other dates, they differed from small dinners to a trip to Paris. I wish someone did that for me.
Anyways she finally became your girlfriend.
Two years later you got married, it was the biggest event any of us had ever seen it was clear to everyone how much you two was in love with each other.
You found out that the baby Hayley was carrying was Tyler's heir and not yours. You were heartbroken and so was Caroline. You had fell in love with that baby. It was truly emotional to see.
Then the inevitable happened.
The witches made a loophole, they allowed Caroline to procreate and you were blessed with my gorgeous godson Henrik.
I haven't seen you for years.
Then all of a sudden you waltz into the Grill."
WHAT?
This news hit him very hard. Niklaus Mikealson – he was the vampire who did not love. He would never allow himself to love; love was a vampire's greatest weakness.
THIS WAS A TRICK, he thought. I would never fall in love. I would never marry. I would never procreate.
Those three things were impossible.
He had to do something about this.
"You will forget all about what you have just explained to me. You will only remember what has happened up to the year before this "relationship" with I and Caroline happened" His pupil undiluted and shortly after hers did too.
She jumped back in fear.
"KLAUS?!"
That was more like it…
"Elena, I presume" The Klaus smirk never leaving his face.
However what the big bad hybrid didn't know was an old friend was watching from a distance.
She needed answers and she needed them now.
She quickly got herself and Henrik ready and then raced to Elijah's mansion as quickly as her vampire speed could take her.
Elijah was the Mikealson Caroline had grown most closest too. He became her best friend over the years she spent with Klaus. He was also Henrik's godfather. No-one dared touch his family, everyone in the supernatural community knew that.
IF YOU TOUCHED A STRAND OF HAIR ON ANY OF THE MIKEALSON'S ESPECIALLY THE BABY, YOU WOULD NOT ONLY NEVER SEE SUNLIGHT AGAIN BUT YOU WOULD BE TORTURED UNTIL YOU BEGGED FOR DEATH.
That was what everyone knew. There hadn't been many threats over the years but when there was, Elijah showed his true vampire side. It was not pretty.
But Caroline knew Elijah would do anything for her and that was the exact reason she was here, at his home, now.
"ELIJAH, I NEED YOUR HELP" She shouted at the top of her lungs even though she knew he could hear her.
"Caroline, calm down. What's happened? Is Henrik okay? Where's Niklaus?"
"Elijah, he's –
She broke down into floods of tears, knees buckled from under her but before she could feel the impact of the floor Elijah had her securely pulled into a hug.
"We'll get Henrik settled and then we'll talk"
"Mommy, where is Daddy?"
"Baby he will be back soon"
"But he always sings me his special song"
She could feel her eyes filling.
"He'll be back soon, I promise"
"But what of my song?"
"How about I sing it to you?"
"Somewhere down the road, you're gonna find a place
It seems so far, but it never is
You won't need to stay, but you might lose your strength
On the way
Sometimes you may feel you're the only one
Cos all the things you thought were safe, now they're gone
But you won't be alone, I'll be here to carry you along
Watching you 'til all your work is done
When you find your heart, you'd better run with it
Cos when she comes along, she could be breaking it
No there's nothing wrong, you're learning to be strong
Don't look back
She may soon be gone, no don't look back
She's not the only one, remember that
If your heart is beating fast, then you know she's right
If you don't know what to say, well, that's all right
You don't know what to do?
Remember she is just as scared as you
Don't be shy, even when it hurts to say
Remember, you're gonna get hurt someday, anyway
Then you must lift your head, keep it there
Remember what I said
I'll always be with you don't forget
Just look over your shoulder I'll be there.
If you look behind you, I will be there." She sang in her angelic voice.
Not only was her eyes filled with tears but so was little Henrik's and Caroline was sure she could hear Elijah sniffling in the room down the hall.
"You remember the end of that song sweetie, Daddy will always be with you no matter what"
"I don't understand why he walked out Mommy, you two had a fight and he walked out. Are you two going to split up? Mom, is he going to leave us?"
Had they really put this into his head?
"No of course not sweetie. Daddy's just ill and Uncle Elijah's going to help me make him better. Now you get a little nap you was up early this morning."
THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE ON CAROLINE AND ELIJAH AND KLAUS AND ELENA.
