It took them only a few days to pack up the abandoned house and make their way back to Mystic Falls, but when they arrived things seemed different. Perhaps because she had been away for so long? Averie didn't know, but she was grateful to be back. Looking up to Kol though, it was obvious he didn't feel the same way. It was almost as if he was nervous…..

Averie reaches for his hand and kissed his knuckles, "Caroline won't be home from school yet, come in and help me unpack?" She raised an eyebrow with a smile.

Chuckling, the original agreed and followed the younger girl inside. Once inside, Averie took in her familiar home, but before she could give Kol a tour, Caroline came running down the stairs.

"Averie! Oh thank god!" The Blonde squealed, attacking the younger Forbes with a hug.

Of course Averie hugged her back, she really did miss Caroline's quirks.

Before the sisters could catch up though, Caroline's eyes narrowed in on the original vampire inside their house, "What are you still doing here?"

Averie saw the fire in both of their eyes and knew that neither of them would back down, but very quickly she ran to Kol's side and took his hand, "It's okay Care, I invited him in."

Seeing their hands intertwine, Caroline gasped and searched for words to express her inner thoughts. The first that came to mind were 'what the fuck' but she figured those weren't the best choice.

With a deep breath, the blonde vampire looked up with her arms crossed, "So what are you saying? Are you two together now, you're dating your kidnapper?"

Kol rolled his eyes, but before he could speak, Averie stepped forward, "Don't act all high and mighty, you and Klaus set this entire thing up thinking I wouldn't find out what was wrong with me!"

Almost immediately, the two vampires lunged towards her, "Nothings wrong with you!" They said in unison before glaring at each other.

Caroline's fury towards Kol was already getting on Averie's nerves, and with a huff she pushed past her to go upstairs. The girl turned to look at the original and signaled for him to follow her, and before Caroline could complain, he sped up to the younger girl's bedroom.

Once Kol was in her room, Averie locked the door behind them, rolling her eyes as she plopped down on her bed. She knew that the idea of her relationship with Kol would give Caroline cardiac arrest, but had hoped she'd have a little more time before having to deal with it.

With her head in her hands, she sighed, looking up to the dark eyed vampire before her, "I've been gone for weeks, and this is the welcome home I get." She laughed pathetically, shaking her head.

With a cool hand, the original cupped the girl's chin and pressed a kiss to her forehead, "Darling, she's been worried, that's all." He explained, kneeling down in front of her, "I would be too if my innocent little sister went to stay with a womanizing vampire."

Averie laughed, for real this time, before crossing her arms and teasingly saying, "I'm not that innocent, not since you've corrupted me."

Kol raised an eyebrow, "Corrupted you?" He hissed, crawling onto the bed and over top of her, "Darling I've barely even begun with you."

"Prove it." She grinned beneath him, tugging at his shirt.

She couldn't determine why she was so antsy to go all the way with him, was it because she finally felt comfortable with where they were at, or perhaps it was just to spite her sister…. Either way, the original's lips soon found their way to her collar bone.

Kol could feel her pulse as he kissed her skin, and it was everything in him not to bite down and drain the girl's body right there. He refrained though, and instead ripped her shirt off to reveal her plump breasts. Continuing in his trail down her abdomen, the original came to her shorts and looked up for her permission. Very quickly, she nodded and spread her legs for him, helping him get her shorts off. His lips trailed over her navel and soon found the hem of her panties, he nibbled at the fabric and pressed one finger against the wetness that was accumulating around her core.

"Be quiet, we don't want Caroline coming up to check on you baby Forbes." He whispered, kissing her inner thigh softly.

Averie breathed deeply, trying to follow his instructions of staying quiet, but it was hard. She had never done this before, not to mention she was nervous. He had so much experience, and here she was, a teenager experiencing the act for the first time. To any of the boys in her high school it would've been seen as some sort of conquest, but something told her original vampires didn't care for things so petty.

As his lips moved closer to her center, Kol looked up to make sure she was still okay with it. She had stopped him before, multiple times…. Suddenly his mind went to the night he made her forget and he very quickly rolled off of the bed.

"W-What's wrong?" Averie asked, sitting up anxiously, "Did I do something wrong?"

Kol stood with his back towards her, trying to stop the memory from replaying in his mind. She was waiting for him to take her, and not only her, but her innocence as well. Even if her feelings for him were fabricated by some compulsion, she wanted him to be her first, and that meant something; because for as long as Kol Mikaelson had been on this dreadful planet, one thing remained constant:

Virginity was saved for love.

Averie loved him, not only that, but she trusted him enough to make herself completely vulnerable to him. His guilt was overwhelming though, and with a sigh he turned back around to face her.

Sliding onto the bed beside her, Kol placed a hand on her thigh gently and shook his head, "Not you, love."

His voice was soft, and Averie was confused. Had he done something wrong? Nothing felt wrong…. She was confused, and the anxiety was beginning to boil up inside of her.

"What do you mean?"

He looked down, trying to think of some way that he could cover for himself. He refused to give her those memories back, no matter how terrible he was for it.

With a deep breath, he laughed, "I don't want to do it with your sister in the house," he lied, "you shouldn't have to suppress yourself during your first time."

Kol winked and nibbled at her chin before pulling away, speeding to grab her clothes from the floor.

She slid her clothes back on, her face red as cherries, "Suppress myself?"

"Why of course," the original smirked, climbing back into her bed and on top of her, "you should be able to be as loud as you please, unless I tell you otherwise of course."

Averie chewed at her lip, feeling herself get hot again. Without a comeback, she simply grabbed his neck and pulled him down to kiss her, hoping that would satisfy her for the time being.
