Hayley stands beside the punch, as she tries to ignore her husband clinging to the auburn haired woman. She turns to Kol who stands beside her. His dark eyes shine with concern, something that never stretched to others. He's about to open his mouth when Rebekah whacks him with her fan. He narrows eyes at his sister.

"What the bloody hell, Rebekah." Kol snaps all the while rubbing his head.

"Why are you upsetting her?" The blond hisses.

"Always assuming that it's I that upset her; it wasn't I."

"Oh, I highly doubt that." Rebekah rolls her eyes as Elijah and Freya arrive and take residence on her right side.

"Kol isn't at fault, Rebekah." Hayley mumbles as she turns to the blond.

"How isn't the twit at fault?"

"It's Klaus," Freya takes a sip of her drink as her eyes wonder about the area. "He's dancing with that so called friend of yours, Rebekah."

"She is no friend of mine!" Rebekah hisses.

"Could have fooled us." Kol mumbles recalling how the two seemed to have shopping sprees with one another.

"Do not allow them to upset you, Hayley." Elijah places a hand on her shoulder.

"Would you prefer me to go over and spill the punch her?" Kol offers as he lifts the filled glass.

"If anyone is going to spill there drink over that loon it's going to be me." Rebekah huffs as she takes the glass out of her brother's hand.

"Not if I get to the loon first." He snatches the glass and starts to walk away.

"Why don't you dance with Hayley." Elijah takes the glass and hands it to Rebekah who just smiles at him.

"Come along sister, I'll sweep you off your feet and make you look like a Queen." Kol takes his sister in law's hand and takes her out to the floor.

Elijah and Freya mumble about Klaus being an idiot. As everyone mumbles about the pregnant young woman. Davina glares at Mary-Alice as she leans over Sophie and mumble to one another. Cami catches the look upon the younger woman's face. It's a known fact that Davina has no coven and has sided with mortals and Freya Mikaelson. Her friendship with the powerful witch has yet to stir any reaction.

"Davina?" Cami questions as the witch snaps out of her daze.

"I don't trust them. They are planning something." She mumbles as she turns to the gate.

"Someone here?"

"Someone wanting to settle a score." Davina turns to Cami. "I have to go prepare for something."

"I'm not letting you go out by yourself, I'll go with."

"I can protect myself."

"Yes I know. Let's go, teen witch. I need to get out of here. My uncle maybe involved with all this but I for one don't want to be around to often."

Everyone eyes the figure that goes up to Hayley and Kol how conclude their dance. Kol's smile drops and he narrows his eyes. Hayley blinks a few times seeing the reaction. Then again Kol dislikes everyone and anything. Klaus sees His brother and wife being cornered by the traitorous bastard he used to call friend.

"Let us leave, sister." Kol starts to lead Hayley away.

"So you are the lovely creature that has snatched Klaus up. I must say, he has a talent for finding and luring the most beautiful woman. Like moths to a flame." The man smiles.

"Why don't you go off to the bayou and get mauled by a-"

"A tab bit rude, aren't we Kol? If I may have this dance-"

"She needs to rest and to stay away from a leech as yourself."

"I'm offended, Kol. I am a friend of Niklaus after all." He turns his attention back to Hayley. "If I may have this dance."

"I-"

He gives her no time to answer and carefully takes her to the dance floor. Kol is cursing the leech his brother calls friend. Klaus narrows his eyes as he sees his wife in the arms of another man. A man that has the need to drown him down all out of envy and anger.

"You are quiet lovely, my dear."

"I'm sorry to cut this short but I am tired."

"No need, love. I'm sure you are due to carrying Klaus' child. I never did get your name."

"Hayley." Hayley offers as she eyes the dark haired man.

"Pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Hayley Mikaelson. I'm Lucien Castel at your service. If you ever need anything please do not hesitant to-"

"My wife does not nor will she ever need any of your so called help. Now, if I may. My wife does need to rest her feet." Klaus cuts in as he allows his voice to have a tone of annoyance.

"My offers still stands, Hayley. Do enjoy the rest of your evening." Lucian offers a smile and goes off in search of Aurora.

Anger clouds Klaus as he turns to his wife. Who seems to have been swept away by his sisters and brothers. Bitterly he turns back to see Aurora and Lucian chatting. Aurora was giving him a flirty smile and twirling her hair. Her brother seems to hover beside his sister. Klaus ponders what life would have been if he had married Aurora and the unborn child was theirs. Turning back he turns to his family to see them all gathered beside his wife. How both women are different; only lovely like a lovely spring day and other like a fall night. But only one can have his tattered heart and he can honestly say that it's neither one of them.

I have yet to decide when Hayley will learn of the family's secret and why everyone seems to be distant. I hope you guys enjoyed. Does anyone wonder what his marriage to Aurora would have been like if he did marry her? -Jasz
