Katherine woke up and almost immediately, she started replaying the scenes between her and Klaus that had happened last night. God, it had been one of the best nights in her whole life, with no worries to haunt her, just Klaus' touches and his voice whispering her name again and again. The memory made her shudder.
"Good morning sunshine" Klaus smiled and Katherine pressed her lips to his, still a little sleepy.
"'Morning" she replied groggily "did you sleep well, Klaus?" her words were accompanied by a mischievous smirk and she started moving her hand up and down his neck teasingly. She could feel Klaus' flawless skin underneath her fingers, it was warm, warmer than the skin of vampire's usually was (given the fact that Klaus was a hybrid).
"I slept perfectly" Klaus put a lot of emphasis on the last word and Katherine shivered as his lips found her ear "how about you, Katerina? I trust you had wonderful dreams you can reflect upon?"
"I did indeed have fantastic dreams" Katherine whispered "I just hope we didn't make too much noise; Elijah probably won't be that happy"
"Don't worry about Elijah; when you were human it wasn't any different, sweetheart. Except, now you are much more fun to play with, so much more wilder, and I don't think my brother fancies you anymore like he used to; all that innocence that drove him crazy is now gone"
"Elijah fancied me when I was human?" Katherine hadn't expected that one. She had expected many things from Klaus and many things from Elijah, but the fact that Elijah had fancied her and Klaus had actually told her came as a complete shock.
"Yes; I'm surprised you didn't know" Klaus grinned manically at Katherine's shocked expression; it amused him that Katherine, the vampire who managed to find out everything hadn't found out the one thing that had been right in front of her nose for as long as he had kept her "captive" while he prepared himself for the sacrifice "Katerina, I thought that his actions indicated his feelings for you. He was always so kind and so keen to entertain you"
Katherine shook her head; there was no need to think about matters that were long lost, was there? Elijah didn't love her anymore; he wasn't even interested in the slightest bit so there was no reason for her to feel guilty about not loving him back or never thinking of him as more than a friend. Besides, if she would have known that he loved her, the most probable thing she would have done, would have been that she would have used his feelings to get her what she wanted, just like she had done with Trevor.
"I know that he was kind and I always appreciated it and took notice of it, but..." Katherine trailed off.
"But?" Klaus asked her.
"But I never saw it as... I mean, once or twice I considered that he had feelings for me, but I always was too afraid to ask him; I was afraid I would embarrass myself" Katherine admitted.
"And you considered that Elijah of all people would spend the nights with you because he wanted satisfaction? Katerina, I thought you knew my dear brother well enough to realise that Elijah is a gentleman and does not do these kinds of things; in fact, he rarely seduces young women and he hardly ever plays games with his victims"
Katherine rolled her eyes
"You slept with me too, Klaus, and we both know you didn't love me. I figured that out myself after a while..."
Klaus smirked at her hurt expression and Katherine felt his lips brush her forehead
"I hope I didn't hurt you back then, sweetheart. I think you understand why I did what I did, though. Well, probably you don't understand the second part"
Klaus shifted a little so that he was leaning on his elbow, looking down at Katherine. His expression said that he did not care- in other words, it was the usual expression he wore- his eyes, though betrayed some worry for her and Katherine couldn't help but feel a spark of joy lighten up when she noticed so.
"And the second part would be?" Katherine wanted to know.
Klaus bent forward and Katherine felt his lips gently scrape her ear as he whispered
"That's none of your business, I'm afraid, love" his voice was somewhat teasing and Katherine groaned, straightening up and trying to clear her thoughts, that were slowly turning hazy because Klaus was close; too close in fact.
Once Katherine had regained control of herself, she merely nodded; the doppelganger knew perfectly well that Klaus wouldn't tell her anything whatsoever.
"Good girl" that sounded almost like he was praising a dog for doing something right and Katherine glared heatedly at Klaus who shrugged and took her into his arms "now, maybe we should get out of bed, love. I think that my dear brother is already pissed off, we wouldn't want to make him any angrier now, would we?" he mumbled into her hair.
Katherine wanted to protest, and in any case she would have done so if this were not Klaus, who happened to be the only man who played by his own rules and not hers in their games.
"Fine" Katherine groaned instead, though she didn't make any movement that would indicate that she was about to get out of bed.
Klaus laughed
"You are not please with what I just said, are you love?"
"Do you know one person on this planet who would be pleased if the guy they just slept with, with who they were having a nice moment suggested that they go see his brother? If you seriously expected me to start jumping up and down at the prospect, then you were wrong. It's not like I don't like Elijah, but did you really have to break this whole thing off so he doesn't get angry?"
Klaus didn't reply immediately. He took his time looking at her then Katherine felt his lips on her cheek
"I think that you owe him, sweetheart. He did save your life after all. Think about what would have happened if you would indeed have been alone; I doubt that you would still be alive. You fate would have probably been worse than Diana's and I think that Mikeal would have asked you quite a few questions about me"
"Okay, I'll come" Katherine pouted at him and Klaus shook his head, laughing "You have to go get me some clothes from my room" she muttered then, embarrassed.
Her comment wiped the smile off of Klaus' face in seconds
"I will not go to your room and collect your clothes, Katerina" he stated.
"Oh, and what do you await me to do now? Klaus, don't be ridiculous"
Klaus scoffed and sighed, getting out of bed, walking toward the drawer, grabbing a pair of boxers and putting them on
"I'll go, but next time I will not even make a move towards your door"
"Okay" Katherine agreed, as she watched him pull a pair of jeans on. Oh, he looked so damn good...
Klaus nodded and in the next second, he was wearing a black t-shirt; then, he was gone. Katherine lay back, once again thinking about how amazing last night had been. Hell, she could relive that experience as often as she liked; she knew that she would never get bored of it.
I hope you liked it! Please, review!
