Chapter 12: going home
After getting dress and eating breakfast they got in the car, this time, Klaus was driving and Stefan sat at the back with Rebecca. Klaus was sure that he could deal with Meredith next to him this time, but he was wrong.
"Meredith," he said. "Mmm?" she hummed. "Say something," he asked. "Like what?" she asked confused. "Anything, I need the distraction." Klaus answered. "Distraction from what?" she asked. He stared at her. Is she trying to drive him crazy? Distraction from wanting to take you to bed. He thought to himself.
"Are you alright Nick?" asked Rebecca. "I am fine." Said Klaus. Meredith stared at him. "Are you hungry?" asked Meredith. He rolled his eyes at her. "What do you want?" she asked, irritated. He sighed. You! His brain was screaming.
"Where are we going?" asked Meredith. "We are going home." Said Klaus. "Who is home?" she asked. "All of us home. Mystic falls were our home too, remember?" Said Klaus. "Why?" asked Meredith, keeping on a blank face. "I already told you, I need a witch," said Klaus. "And you think Bonnie will help you? Small reminder, you killed her best friend." Said Stefan.
"I thought Meredith is her best friend." Said Klaus. "I am no one best friend, I am just there." Said Meredith. It was true. Everyone could trust her if they needed to, but no one really sees her as a best friend. She is an outsider. Too gloom for Caroline, too vampire like for Bonnie, too unnecessary for Elena.
Klaus looked at her with a soft look. He didn't intend to hurt her. "Anyway, I agree with Stefan. Bonnie wouldn't help you." Said Meredith, hoping that it will make him turned back to Chicago. "She will help; I just need to push the right buttons." Said Klaus. Meredith looked at him, and realized that there is nothing she can do to change his mind.
It was early evening, when they got in town. The truck with the coffins was right behind them. "Let's go to your place first." Said Klaus, looking at Stefan. "Do what you want." Said Stefan.
Meanwhile in the boarding house…
"We are not trying again." Said Damon. "Why not?" asked Elena. "Because if he wanted to come back, he would have done it." Said Damon. A knock on the door stopped the argument. "Are you waiting for someone?" asked Elena. "No, you?" asked Damon. "no." said Elena and opened the door.
"Somehow I am not surprised to find out that you are alive, my dear Elena." Said Klaus. Damon stared at his brother. He wasn't supposed to bring Klaus back home.
Elena went backward. "Klaus." She breathed. "Yes. You don't mind if we come in would you?" asked Klaus and they stepped in. Meredith closed the door behind them. "Who are you?" asked Damon, looking at Rebecca. "My sister, Rebecca. Rebecca this is the other Salvatore, Damon." Said Klaus, looking around.
"So, you survived the sacrifice somehow, and this is the reason my hybrids are dead." Said Klaus. Elena looked confused.
"I thought we did a blood oath." Said Klaus, looking at Stefan and Meredith. "Well, I didn't do a blood oath, you did it with Meredith." Said Stefan. Elena and Damon were surprised. They didn't expect that Stefan will blame Meredith this way.
"Fine, Meredith?" asked Klaus. "Loophole. You asked Elena to the sacrifice and we gave her to you. You didn't say that she must stay dead." Said Meredith. Klaus was staring at her. She gave him a warm look.
He never expected that Meredith will lie to him, not after what happened between them. "Call Bonnie. I need her to find a way to fix it," said Klaus. "She wouldn't help you." Said Damon. "Really? I am sure she will help if I will do that," said Klaus and wrapped his hand over Damon's heart in his chest. Elena screamed. "Nicklaus!" called Meredith. He looked at her, his hand still in Damon chest. "I am calling Bonnie," she said and pulled out her cellphone. Klaus released Damon that went to take some bourbon.
"Hi Bonnie, can you come to the boarding house?" asked Meredith. "Yes, we just came back, Nicklaus is with us." She replied to something that Bonnie said. "Yes, Elena is here." Said Meredith. "O.k. bring your book." She finished the call.
"She is on her way." Said Meredith. "Good," said Klaus coldly. "Nicklaus, can we talk?" ask Meredith. "Talk." Said Klaus. "Outside maybe?" she asked softly. "Fine." He said and followed her outside.
"What?" asked Klaus at the moment they were alone. "I know you are hurt," said Meredith quietly. "You were the last one I expected to lie to me." He said. "What did you expect me to do? To tell you that we saved Elena? To put my friends in danger?" she asked. "You told me that you are in love with me, but lie to me anyway." He said angrily. "We just got here and you already attacked Damon! You can't act like that." She said. "I can do whatever I want. You are not my wife, so stop telling me what to do." Said Klaus. "I am trying to help you, and you are pushing me away. You will stay alone." She warned him. "I will have my hybrids." Said Klaus. "It doesn't mean that they will love you." Said Meredith and walked inside.
Klaus got in after Meredith, and Bonnie got there a few moments later.
She jump on Meredith with a hug and suddenly moved back. "Are you a vampire now?" asked Bonnie. "Of course not." Said Meredith. "I had a wired feeling when I touched you." Said Bonnie. "It's probably nothing." Said Meredith, trying to look innocent. "Yes, probably." Bonnie agreed.
"Now, what do you want from me?" asked Bonnie coldly. "I tried to transform werewolves in to hybrids, like me. It failed, probably because Elena survived the sacrifice. I want you to fix it, so I can have my hybrids." Said Klaus. "And if I refused?" asked Bonnie. "I will kill anyone you care about, starting with Damon, and there is the gilbert boy, and the baby vampire Caroline, should I continue?" said Klaus. "Fine, I will try." Said Bonnie and opened her book.
After half an hour Klaus become restless. "Well?" he asked. "There is nothing in here, sorry." Said Bonnie. "Talk with your dead witches." Said Klaus. "Fine." She said angrily.
"Damon I will need some candles." Said Bonnie. Damon went to bring candles from the kitchen.
When the candles were on their place, Bonnie closed her eyes. The candles lit up by themselves and Bonnie started to mumbled.
After a few moments she stopped and her nose was bleeding. "Bonnie, your nose." Said Elena, worried. "You stopped because of your nose?" asked Klaus. "No, I stopped because they refused to help and pushed me away, they don't like you." Said Bonnie. "I also don't like them." Said Klaus and then he froze.
"Son of a bitch." He mumbled. "What is it Nick?" asked Rebecca. "She tricked me. She made me kill the doppelganger so I can become a real hybrid, and wanted me to stay alone. Because I can't make more hybrids without the doppelganger blood, and Elena were supposed to be dead." Said Klaus.
Meredith was confused. "Nicklaus, your mother and the original witch are the same woman right?" asked Meredith. "Yes, why?" asked Klaus. "I don't get it." She said. "What is it, love?" he asked. Meredith smiled. She thought that he will never call her this way again. "Why would she do this? Trick you, I mean." She said. "Because she hated me." Said Klaus softly. Meredith face were hard. How a mother can hate her child? She thought to herself.
The door opened and Caroline came in with Tyler. "Hi Meredith! Hi Stefan! Bonnie texted me that you came back, I just got her message late," said Caroline happily. "Hi Caroline." Said Klaus. "What are you doing here?" asked Caroline. "Creating hybrids." He said and jump on Tyler.
He forced Tyler to drink his blood and then broke his neck. "What are you doing?!" cried Caroline and hugged Tyler's body. "He will be fine, I promise." Meredith hugged her. "Don't promise what you can't keep." Said Damon. Meredith stared at him and said, "I always keep my promises."
They sat quietly, waiting for Tyler to wake up.
Klaus was sitting on the couch, and Meredith came to sit next to him. He looked at her. He was surprised that after the lie, and their talk earlier, he still wanted to kiss her. He moved a lock of black hair from her face. "I miss you," he whispered. "I miss you too," she whispered back. He smiled and stood up when he heard that Tyler woke up.
Klaus grabbed Elena's arm and sank his fangs in it. She gasped. He let Tyler drink her blood.
Tyler eyes got golden as a werewolf's, and veins showed up under his eyes like a vampire. "My first hybrid." Said Klaus. "And the last one too." Said Damon. Klaus turned to look at him. "You are not taking Elena." He said.
"Stefan, I want you to turn off your emotions switch." Said Klaus. "No." said Stefan. Klaus stared at his eyes and compelled him. "Nicklaus." Said Meredith but he didn't listen. "Turn it off." Said Klaus, and Stefan obeyed.
After that he grabbed Elena and disappeared in a vampire speed.
Meredith got sad. Now that he succeeded to create his hybrids, he will forget her, while she is carries his child.
"Damon, go to the hospital, he probably compelling someone to pull out some of her blood." Said Meredith. Damon grabbed his car keys and drove away.
"I am going home, someone needs a ride?" asked Meredith. "No we are good." Said Caroline. "O.k. call me when you heard anything." Said Meredith. "Sure." Said Bonnie. "Good night." Said Meredith and left.
"What's wrong with her?" asked Caroline. Stefan laughed. "What's so funny?" asked Bonnie, annoyed. "Isn't that obvious? She is in love with Klaus." Said Stefan. "What?!" shouted Bonnie and Caroline together.
"Good night girls." Said Stefan. "Wait, where is my room?" asked Rebecca. "Not here." Said Stefan and went to his room.
Meredith drove home alone. She unpacked her bags, took a shower and went to sleep.
