Here's the last chapter thought i'd make it sort of Christmas influenced because why not. Thanks for all you're reviews! Happy Halloween to all of you! Oh and i might write more about this little family, just let me know if you want to read more. Insert Klayley quote "I got you love. I got you."


Hayley found herself pacing outside the living room yet again, she didn't let her thoughts run wild and unsure over a man but it wasn't just any man it was her daughter's father who was sending her world upside down, unknowingly. She couldn't help thinking of how his hands felt on her skin, how the thought of hurting him ached was family really worth all this, family was all she ever wanted.
She pictured sitting down leaning on her husband's shoulder him throwing one firm arm around her waist, only to be interrupted by their child bounding in to see them.
She pictured a perfect family, it was selfish she loved Hope and she thought she might even love Klaus despite all his flaws he had a way of worming inside your head.
Exhaling a determined breath she stormed into the room where Klaus was sitting on the couch, the fire burning in front of him, the tip of his finger about to turn the page with that playful smirk on his lips. He'd known she'd been silently fighting herself on whether to come in here, asshole she muttered to herself. He dropped the book holding up his hands in mock surrender "Are you going to attack me again?"
She smiled crossing her arms against her chest to hold back her accelerating heart, really she growled annoyed. "That wasn't my fault, that stupid witch was.."
She was cut off by a smirking Klaus "I wasn't talking about that."
She remembered how uncontrollably she had launched at him, unable to feed the need she had for him close to her "Well after your obvious disgust I wouldn't dare lower myself again." She snapped looking away from those eyes which unravelled her.

He stood slowly with purpose throwing the book to the couch, he took a sure step towards her and she didn't dare move. "Love I didn't want to stop. I just didn't want Hope to get caught in the middle of all of this if it isn't a sure thing."
He gaged her reaction, she found herself nodding slowly "After you nearly ripped my arm off its hinges thanks for that. I thought I might have to kill you, and it….terrified me. I don't scare easy, unfortunately for you I think I might need you."
His eyes were wide, open, even innocent and looking at his vulnerable face for once unsure she found her heart clench. She broke into a slow smile biting the corner of her mouth "It's a sure thing unfortunately."
That confirmation was all it took for him to cradle her face his hands, pushing her as close to him as humanly possible, fumbling with her hands for a second she placed them securely on his chest.
Gripping his shirt till her knuckles turned white, their breaths were becoming haggard "Niklaus!" roared Elijah they sensed his presence at the door.
Klaus waving him off growled "Not now." His footsteps eventually retreated.
She laughed shortly because he grabbed her lips eagerly with his own, she found herself being slowly forced to step backwards down the hall, most likely in search of his bedroom.
All the while their mouths frantically needed each other making things a little easier she jumped up wrapping her legs firmly around his waist. Feeling the heat off each other's body, he fumbled against the door and she'd never seen him look so adorable. "Where the bloody hell is the door knob, did someone lock this."
She went to slide away from him everything inside her disappointed but he ripped the door knob off growling, he threw her on the bed swiftly kicking the door closed.
Smiling he placed his body over hers their feet jumbled together kicking off shoes, in annoyance he ripped the top from her chest flinging it across the room. Taking his lead she ripped his shirt with a little too much vigour it shredded away from him. "I liked that top." He teased lightly kissing her neck and her head fell back.
"Can you have sex with it?"
He laughed lowly in his throat "No but I'm sure Elijah has tried. You'll look much better on me."
Pulling his head closer towards her before they continued she kissed his slowly savouring him, hoping he'd get the depth of her feelings. He looked shyly at her "I know little wolf, me to."

She woke up smiling taking it as a good sign, she hadn't made a mistake that was for sure, his hair was all bed riddled and fluffy, she found herself laughing. Big bad wolf huh, she tried to release herself from his iron grip around her shoulders and untangle their legs but his eyes opened sleepily. "Running out again little wolf."
She shook her head "Never again. I was going to get us breakfast."
His eyebrow shot up "You! Get me breakfast, I must be really good."
She slapped him on the chest playfully, he pulled her closer towards him snarling "You're not going anywhere."
She yelped causing the cavalry to storm in, Hope sprinted down the hall banging the door wide open and Klaus put his arm lazily around her again. "Finally." Yelped Hope jumping on to the bed throwing her two arms around both of them.
Elijah his arms swinging furiously, perched at the door his towel femininely tucked in to his waist, shaking some droplets off himself. "Niklaus you wanted me?"
"No brother." Klaus sighed and Elijah retreated.

Marcus followed unsurely down the hall a very excitable Hope not realising she was heading to her mum and dads room, he wasn't allowed in there.
That wasn't his family moment, he stood awkwardly at the door fiddling with the corner of his shirt, Elijah had been kicked up and the three family members finally noticed he was there.
He smiled quickly at Hope diverting his gaze from Klaus he still scared him a bit "Come on. Why you standing over there." Demanded Hope.
She looked for reinforcements off her Dad. "If Marcel is a member of this family then you are a huge improvement."
He smiled gratefully slowly stepping into the room, Hope grabbed his shirt yanking him on to the bed where Hayley playfully ruffled his hair.
"You're stuck with us now." Hope laughed easily taking his hand in her own.

Marcus looked up at the Christmas decorations hung all around the compound, the tree the centre of the Christmas household. Who knew vampires loved Christmas so much.
His mum never had much interest in the holiday normally he faked his own excitement in hopes she might join in, he shrugged away the depressing thoughts lingering in his mind when Hope ran towards him. She screamed "It's Christmas!" throwing her arms around him excitedly.
He laughed at her gleeful face as she jumped up and down taking his hands so he followed her, "Come on let's run around." She urged.
They lowered their heads to the ground taking off in a run dodging Elijah who looked puzzled while Marcel explained his gym and the discounts it was offering at Christmas. They heard him mutter "I don't care Marcellus."
They looked at each other chuckling, they stopped so he could catch his breath his lungs felt like there was a tingling fire running through them. "Are you happy? You like it here right?"
Hopes concern always baffled him she just let him into her family with open arms literally "I love it here. I can't believe I do but I don't think I could leave here even if someone tried to make me."
Hope grinned "No one can make you do anything I'll protect you."
She nudged her shoulder with his own looking shyly up at her "Can't have a girl protecting me. I'm going to have to become a strong man."
Before Hope could respond she was legging it away from him screaming "Aunty Becks you're home!"
She crawled up the famous Aunty Becks she always ranted on and on about, how she would love him and how she was so bloody funny. "Of course. I wouldn't miss Christmas with you, screw the rest."
Hope leaped down from her arms "Not Marcus, he's cool."
Becks leaned down putting one hand comfortingly on his cheek, her smile was warm and encouraging she didn't seem like a vampire at all. "You're famous. Hope has told me all about you."
He looked down blushing slightly "Same with you. Maybe we should be paying for them to be around us."
She laughed in surprise ruffling his hair, they always seemed the need to do that to him. "I like him."

Klaus threw his arms around his sister jokingly saying to her "You with no hopeless man trailing after you, who knew."
She rolled her eyes hugging an excitable Hayley, Hayley's hand dropped next to Klaus's and he gave it a discreet gentle squeeze but he noticed Beck looking at them and quickly looking away.
"Did you hear. I like saved everybody, Dad would've been screwed without me but all I get from the old couple is Hope it's dangerous, you could've been killed, you're only a child."
Klaus looked sharply at her "It wasn't all you I was there too. Who the hell ripped Nathaniel's heart out, sure as hell wasn't you."
Hope sighed "Oh you're gone all soft. Wasn't for me we'd be all dead."
Klaus grabbed her swinging her up into his arms, shaking her playfully "Gone soft. Not possible." He muttered throwing her back on her feet.
"You have weird arguments." Observed Marcus and they all turned to each other looking amused.
"Marcus thinks I'm the strongest person in the world."
Hope turned to him expecting him to back her up he nodded blushing, Hope grabbed his hand pulling him away from the adults and his stomach churned nervously. "Come on they're boring."

Hayley didn't want to broadcast whatever the hell her and Klaus was she just couldn't be happier she finally had the family Christmas she'd always wanted.
She'd never been happier, she sighed contently instantly feeling Klaus and Becks who were teasing each other look at her amused. She yelped in surprise at Klaus's display of public affection as he playfully swung his arms around her waist dragging her back to hit his chest.
He pressed his nose close into neck nuzzling her, kissing her lightly and she felt her body stir it always did when he touched her like this. She fit perfectly, she never thought she could, she let her head fall back on to his shoulder resting in his embrace.
"Aren't you two bloody adorable. All in love, isn't fair I've only been trying to find a man for hundreds of years." She groaned.
Klaus laughed drawing her in, tightening his grip on Hayley "There's always Marcel."
"Oh. Oh now you approve. Well you'll have the same problem with Hope and Marcus, I see him forming a little crush on her. Besides Marcel would never choose me over his gym, idiot."
Klaus released her putting his hand on Becks shoulder "That is what I told you for years only now you see it. Marcus is a child I won't have to rip his heart out for years to come and unlike you Hope can take care of herself." He snipped walking away, dragging Hayley with him.
"I can so!"
She was pulled to the other side of the room gently moving her finger along the side of Klaus's hand swearing she saw him shiver, "Where we going?"
They "stumbled" under mistletoe because Klaus would refuse to say it was planned, he's just that good. His finger slowly traced her lips, he teasingly kissed the top of her lip lightly until they crashed together. Hope tugged on Klaus's hand holding Marcus's sleeve in the other "Now me and Marcus are under mistletoe."
Klaus's jaw dropped, Marcus spluttering backed away trying to prove his innocence and calm the fire in Klaus's eyes. "Joke." She grinned running away with Marcus at her heels.
Hayley trying to calm his nerves draped her arms around his neck trying to make him look at her, he was being stubborn. "She'll be the death of me." He finally said as she brought his lips down to hers.
"Merry Christmas." She laughed.
