"You have to let me go back to Mystic Falls, though. You cannot keep me here." I reasoned.
"You can go back to Mystic Falls," he started, "On the condition that you can't be with Damon anymore."
"Fair deal, I'd say." He kissed my cheek before rolling out of bed to pull on boxers and pants.
"Feel free to leave whenever you want to. There's a car parked out back for you use." He said as he buttoned up his jeans.
"Leaving so soon?" I asked, looking hurt.
"I have some things I have to take care of, love." He apologized.
"You don't even have time for a quickie?" I winked as I pulled the covers back to reveal myself to him. He got restless and looked to the bedroom door and back again before groaning a "Fuck it." and taking off his clothes again and climbing into bed.
"I swear, if you try and stop me one more time, I will make sure you will not be able to walk after." Klaus said, rolling out of the bed again and pulling on his clothes.
"Is that a threat? If it is, please don't make it so appealing," I teased as I watched him button up his shirt.
"When I come back, sweetheart," he winked.
"That better be a promise." I smirked as he bent down to kiss me on my forehead.
"I'll see you later?" He asked as he headed to the door.
"Better be," He smiled at me before heading out of the bedroom.
I heard him leave the house before I got up and made my way to the bathroom. I took a shower and cleansed myself. I adored the hot water washing over my body as I washed my hair. I felt all of the grit and dirt wash away and, after a solid forty-five minutes, I was finally sufficed.
I grabbed the towel off of the rack and dried off my body and wrapped myself in it before going back into the bedroom and to my bags. I pulled out a one-sleeved navy shirt that had embellishments along the neckline and a pair of dark-wash jean short shorts. I grabbed out a matching set of undergarments and dropped the towel on the bed to change.
Once I had my clothes on, I walked back to the bathroom so that I could style my hair and put on my make up. I rimmed my eyes with midnight black eyeliner before applying black mascara onto my eyelashes. After my face looked decent enough, I moved onto my hair. I tied it into a fishtail braid, too lazy to wait for it to dry to curl it.
Once I was satisfied, I headed back to my bags and fished out a pair of sandal wedges and put them on. I decided to pack a bag in case I wanted to stay the night at Elena's or something.
I took one last look, trying to see if I had forgotten anything. I turned on my heel and headed out of the bedroom and down the stairs. At the bottom, I saw a key hanging up with a note from Klaus attached to it. I read the note over, which just stated to have a good time and hope I enjoyed the car.
I walked outside and made my way to the back of the house. I stopped dead in my tracks as I spotted the car. "You've got to be shitting me," I said to myself, walking closer to it. There, parked in front of me, was a brand new white Audi R8 V10. I squealed in delight as I threw my bag in the back and climbed into the front seat. I marvelled at the interior and was even more amazed when I started up the engine. It purred as it was brought to life and I screamed once more in amazement as I pulled onto the road.
It took me a record of twenty minutes to make it into Mystic Falls. Klaus really did spoil me, not that I minded. I figured out my way to Elena's eventually and parked on the side of the road before getting out. I hoped she was home because I really didn't want to go to the Salvatore house.
I knocked on the front door, hoping someone would be there to answer it. I heard someone walking closer to the door before it opened. "Aisling!" Elena exclaimed in shock as she pulled me in for a hug. "Where have you been? We've been trying to track you down!"
"Sorry about that, Klaus took me captive, so to speak." I apologized.
"What happened? Are you okay?" She asked with concerned as she ushered me in to her house and closed the door behind me.
"Oh, yeah, I'm fine. Klaus and I made up so we're all good now." Elena looked at me and I could tell she was disappointed in me. "Look, Elena," I sighed, taking a seat in her living room, "With Klaus and I it's... complicated, to say the least, but being with him the past couple days made me realize that I can't not have him in my life." I said apologetically. "But you guys are my friends too and I'm going to do my best to find common ground." I reasoned. Elena still looked sceptical, but accepted nonetheless.
"What did you even do while you were with him?" She asked with curiosity, getting back into her typical teenage girl habits.
"He tried to show me that I wanted him in my life. Unfortunately, he succeeded."
"Unfortunately?" She raised an eyebrow.
"I didn't want to have him in my life. I have spent my whole life trying to sabotage his plans and make him pay for what he did and it took him two whole days to change that. He irritates me like no other." There was a knock on the door before Damon walked straight in. "Correction: him and Damon irritate me like no other." Elena laughed, but as she looked at Damon, I could tell something was going on.
"And who would him be?" Damon asked, taking a seat next to me and throwing his arm on the back of the couch behind me.
"Klaus," I answered.
"C'mon, I have got to be better than him."
"Au Contraire. Il est beaucoup mieux que ce que vous."
"What? How can he beat me?" Damon asked, faking appal. I just smirked up at him.
"Believe me, it's not hard."
"Ouch,"
"Truth hurts."
"That it does."
"Speaking of truth, what's going on between the two of you?" I asked with an eyebrow raised. Elena looked down at the floor as Damon turned to look at her. It all clicked. "Ah," I sighed in understanding, "The classic act of falling in love with brothers. Don't worry, Elena, I've been in our position too. Technically, I still am. God, it makes it so much more difficult when they can't die." This time Elena and Damon looked at me.
"You and Elijah, too?" Elena asked.
I sighed, "Yeah, we spent decades together after Klaus turned me. It was hard not to fall for each other. But enough about me. What happened in two days to make things awkward? I knew you too had feelings for each other before, but things were never this awkward." And then it clicked, "You two kissed. That makes sense. Now it's all weird. I'll leave you two to it then." I smirked, starting to get up. "Oh, Elena, can I stay the night tonight and then go to school with you in the morning? I'll drive us."
"Is that your Audi parked in the front?" Damon asked.
"Audi? Since when did you get an Audi?" Elena asked.
"Since Klaus became my favourite person ever." I smiled.
"Since when does Klaus get people gifts?" Damon grunted.
"He owes me a lot." I smirked. "I'll be back. I'm heading to the Grill."
I left the house and got into my car, making my way towards Mystic Grill. I was going to drive everywhere now.
I parked in the parking lot and headed in. When I made it to the bar, I ordered a whiskey and took a seat on one of the bar stools. I could smell hybrids everywhere, and especially the one that took a seat a few bar stools away from me.
"Following me?" I asked quietly and knew he could hear me.
"Klaus wants to make sure you're not planning against him and making sure you keep up your end of the bargain."
"Tell Klaus that he can go fuck himself if he thinks I'll let him have his followers spying on me. I don't belong to him."
"According to him, you do." I took my drink and moved to the seat beside the hybrid. I put my hand in his lap and got him excited before clutching onto his balls and squeezed hard.
"I'll make you a deal, hybrid. You can stop spying on me or I'll make sure you don't fuck another girl. You won't be much of a man then now, will you?" I smirked as he gasped in pain.
"Klaus will kill me." He managed to get out.
"Well that's a pity now, isn't it?" I remarked sarcastically. "Do we have a deal?" I asked, accentuating every word as I squeezed harder.
"Alright, alright! We have a deal!" He almost screamed. I downed the rest of my whiskey, smiled, and kissed his cheek.
"Pleasure doing business with you, love. Tell the rest of your friends that the same goes for them." I let go of him and walked out of the Grill.
I decided to walk for a bit to try and find a drink before I headed back to Elena's. As I walked down the street behind Mystic Grill, I heard a scream before it was quickly silenced. In the hope of finding someone to drink, I followed where I heard the scream come from. Around the corner, I saw a hybrid terrorizing a woman who looked like she was in her 30's. Perfect.
I walked up to the hybrid and as it saw me, he threatened to kill the woman if I didn't back off. I smirked as I started walking up to them, calling his bluff. I knew he was too scared to actually be able to make a worthy opponent. I sped up behind him and snapped his neck before taking a hold of the women so that she wouldn't be able to run away. I covered her mouth and made her look into my eyes as I compelled her to forget everything that had just happened.
Once I was finished with her and she had run off, I turned towards the hybrid lying on the ground. He wasn't dead yet, I knew that. So I waited for him to wake up. As soon as he did, I drank from him immediately, draining every last drop of blood he had in him.
Once I finished, I staged it to look like a random murder and dropped his body into the nearest dumpster.
I made my way back to my car after making sure there were no remnants of blood on me, but heard a familiar voice behind me.
"For God's sakes, Aisiling. Stop killing my hybrids." He groaned as I turned around.
"Control them then." I spoke as I looked up at him. He pushed his body up against mine.
"Like your gift?" He smirked.
"You used one of my weaknesses against me," I frowned as he laughed.
"Knew you would love it,"
"Yeah, yeah." His lips went to reach mine but I held them back. "Stop spying on me, you paranoid idiot."
"Fine," He growled.
"Now, I've got to be getting back to Elena's. I'll see you soon." I made him much happier as I reached up to kiss him. It soon became heated, but I pulled back again much to his displeasure.
"Goodbye, love."
