It was 11 am. Klaus was sitting on the couch waiting for Stefan to wake up so they could go find those witches. He saw Hayley walking down the stairs. He didn't know how to explain this to Stefan. What was he supposed to say? That Hayley is having his baby after a one night stand and that even now he is still in love with Caroline? It didn't even sound good in his head.
Hayley gave him a quick look and headed to the kitchen. She could tell that Klaus didn't really care about her. At least the feeling was mutual. All she knew is that he was the only one who could protect her and the baby. She had no feelings for him.
Klaus followed her in the kitchen. They didn't get the chance to talk since Stefan arrived. ''I haven't told him yet. But I am going to today. I want him to learn it from me so don't say anything even if he asks you''
Hayley cocked her head ''I wasn't planning to chit chat with Stefan anyway. Do whatever you want. I'll be in my room'' He took a bottle of milk and headed upstairs.
Klaus sat back on the couch and started drinking a glass of blood.
After a half hour Stefan woke up. He was feeling much better. Now that he had a place to live, food and a partner in crime everything was supposed to feel great. But it didn't. He couldn't help but worry about everyone in Mystic Falls. Caroline, Jeremy, even Elena and Damon. He had no idea what Silas had in mind. They could be in great danger right now. He needed to put an end to him fast.
He put on a white T-Shirt that Klaus left for him next to his bed and a pair of black jeans also given to him by Klaus. He threw some cold water on his face and starred at his reflection. He could tell that something has changed. He wasn't the same. He was full of hate. He hated Silas more than anything. He never felt like this before. Besides that, he was craving for blood more and more. Was he turning into his ripper alter ego? He shook his head and headed downstairs.
He found Klaus sitting on the couch. He could smell the blood he had in his glass. Klaus titled his head so that he could face him. ''Good morning sunshine.'' he said with sarcasm with a smile lighting his face.
Stefan ignored him and sat on one of the couches. His gaze met the glass with the blood. He wanted it. He needed it. Klaus noticed that Stefan was looking at his glass. He poured some more blood in his glass and handed it over to him ''Have a drink so that we can go pay a visit to a pretty little witch I know''
Stefan hesitated for a second but then he grabbed the glass and finished it in a couple of seconds. Some blood dripped in his lower lip. He licked it and left the glass on the table. Klaus smirked. He had a feeling that the ripper was rising. He liked ripper Stefan. That's the way he first met him and liked him after all. ''Okay then let's go'' Klaus said. He grabbed his car keys and went to the car. Stefan followed him.
Stefan decided to start a conversation on the road. ''Can you tell me why is Hayley living with you? Remember that you promised to tell me today''
Klaus' eyes remained on the road. He was sure that he would bring it up. He sighed. ''Fine, I'll tell you. It might sound strange but..'' he shook his head slightly ''Hayley is having my baby''
Stefan gave him a puzzled look. Then he started laughing. ''Come on Klaus. We both know that vampires can't have babies and you are half vampire so same goes to you. Just tell me the truth''
''I am serious Stefan. Werewolves can have babies and I am half vampire, half werewolf. I didn't know it was possible either but apparently it is''
Stefan looked at him. He was serious. ''But how? I didn't know that you liked her. I thought that you had a thing for Caroline''
''It was a one night stand. It meant nothing to me. '' He cocked his head to face Stefan ''And I don't have a thing for Caroline''
''Oh right, I am sorry. You are in love with Caroline'' Stefan chuckled and titled his head to the other side so that he could look out of his window. He decided not to ask anything else. He could see that Klaus didn't like the way things turned out. He could also see that he needed someone who would understand him not judge him. No matter what Klaus has done and what people say, Stefan could tell that he wasn't as bad as he wanted to make people believe. What if this façade was his way of protecting himself from getting hurt? What if he was afraid of being loved?
Klaus laughed too and shook his head lightly. His eyes were on the road again. It was like old times. Could it be that they could bring that friendship back? He wanted it. He wanted a friend. He wanted Stefan to be his friend. He always liked him. Who knows? Maybe their hate towards Silas would bring them closer. At least that's what he was hoping for.
