A/N Thank you all for reviewing!
Later—The Grill
"What are we doing here?"
Klaus held the door to the bar open for Skylar as he replied."This place is a bar, love, what else do you expect we'd come here for apart from a drink?"
"You had a bar built inside of your home."Skylar retorted, walking into the bar and Klaus following behind her."Why would you come here?"
"Well, as much as I love my family, they are a bit mad, and I need a break now and then. Besides, why should I not come to my local bar for a drink?"
"Maybe because it's asking for trouble?"
Klaus let out a chuckle, shaking his head."I create trouble, sweetheart; I don't need to fear it."
The brunette rolled her eyes, hiding her smile.
Klaus walked beside Skylar as they made their way up the steps that led from the tables and booths to the bar. The two passed some that were drunk far too early and got to the bar, Skylar sitting on a stool and Klaus remaining standing. A second later a young man came up, tossing a towel over his shoulder as he looked at the two.
"What can I get ya?"
Skylar opened her mouth to give her order, but Klaus piped up before her."A bourbon for the lovely lady and I'll have the same."
The hybrid met the young man's eyes, compelling him."It'll be on the house, right, mate?"
The young man nodded, giving Klaus a kind smile."Of course."
"Be a good boy and keep them coming."
The bartender nodded, walking away to get their drinks and Klaus turned around to face Skylar, arm on the bar.
"It's the 21st century, y'know," Skylar raised her eyebrows, grabbing the glass when the drinks were served."I can order my own drink."
"I was merely a gentleman, love."
"A gentleman would pay."
The Original hybrid leant closer to the female vampire, smiling when his forehead rested against hers."Why would I go through all the nonsense of dinner and a movie if I've already had the pudding?"
She felt his fingers brush underneath his chin before he grasped it, raising her head up to him, thumb tracing her bottom lip. The hybrid leant closer, lips brushing hers, smiling when she inhaled sharply. He moved to kiss her, but that was when his words sunk in and a glare appeared, replacing her dazed look.
She scowled at him, pushing at his shoulders, making him laugh when he stumbled back a few steps.
"I hate you!"
"Oh, you may dislike me, love, but that doesn't stop you from ending up in my bed whenever you're feeling a bit lonely."
Skylar raised her fist, ready to swing for the hybrid but, just before she could punch him, he grabbed her wrist. The Original yanked on her wrist, pulling her up against him so that her body smashed against his. She gasped as he squeezed her fist but not enough to break her bones. His hand moved from her fist to her arm, wrapping it around his neck and his hand settled on her hip.
He tilted his head as her arm remained around his neck and he leant closer, eyes staring into hers. The female vampire hummed as his hand moved to her lower back, keeping her against him.
Skylar swallowed, a breathy sigh spilling from her lips."I really want to punch you..."
Klaus gave her a ghost of a smile, eyes darkening with lust as she arched her body into his.
"I don't doubt it, sweetheart."
Skylar dug her nails into his neck as she leant up, lips brushing against Klaus' softly. His gaze flickered from her eyes to her mouth before he closed the distance between them, lips claiming Skylar's. The Salvatore sister hummed, something she always seemed to do when he kissed her, and her now bloody fingers found themselves in his curls. Their kiss started off as somewhat soft and tender, but when Skylar, demanding more, bit down on his lip, the Original let out a growl of approval and deepened their kiss.
Everything and everyone else began to slip away.
The bartender slowly came up, tapping the bar to gain their attention.
"Uh, guys?"He let out a nervous chuckle, wiping sweat from his forehead."You can't do whatever your doing in here; it's kinda against the health code."
The two didn't seem to notice and continued to kiss.
The bartender rolled his eyes, reaching out and grabbing Skylar's shoulder, trying to turn her to him."Hey, lady? Can you-"
Klaus pulled away an inch, turning his head to the bartender and flashing his eyes, growling.
The bartender instantly let go of Skylar and backed off, holding up his arms."Okay, okay!"
Klaus smirked and chuckled, lips instantly finding Skylar's again.
The two moved to deepen their kiss once again, but someone clearing their throat made them pause.
The two turned their heads at the same time to see Elena standing in front of them; her arms crossed over her chest as she stared at them with a sour look in her brown eyes. The female vampire wet her swollen lips as she let her arms fall back to her sides, the lustful look in her orbs turning hateful as she looked at the doppelgänger.
"Taking your relationship public?"
The Salvatore released a long breath, shaking her head."I'm not in the mood to deal with you right now."
"Do you know what you've done?"Elena ignored Skylar's words as she glared at the two of them."Damon is drowning in drink and Stefan won't talk to him. They won't speak to me."
"I don't think that's got anything to do with us, love."Klaus spoke up, taking a long sip from his drink."I think that's got to do with the roundheel that's playing with their hearts."
Elena blinked, hurt and anger building in her eyes, glowering with Klaus.
"Everyone knows about you two, y'know."Elena hissed, turning back to Skylar, pointing at Klaus."Why do you have to rub it everyone's faces knowing the pain it causes? Does it make you happy to know you're hurting people?"
Skylar sent Elena a harsh grin, picking up her glass."Funny, I remember saying the same things to you."
"I'm not the one in the wrong here. I don't know why you're doing this, Skylar."Elena shook her head, a frown on her face."Why do you want to hurt them so much?"
Skylar didn't reply.
Instead, she smiled gracefully and downed her drink before she flashed toward Elena. The vampire, with all her strength, smashed the glass onto the side of Elena's face, digging the glass into her skin, tearing it downwards so a large slash appeared down her cheek. Elena let out a loud, heart-wrenching scream and tried to pull the glass out of her face.
Skylar's eyes flashed in anger as she tipped Elena's head up with her fingers."Let's see them fall in love with you all over again now that you don't look like Katherine."
Skylar pushed the brunette backwards into a crowd of people who had come to help her. She stepped over the glass and flounced away from the crowd, pushing at people who had gotten in her way.
"We need to get her to a hospital!"
Skylar, almost bumping into Bonnie and Caroline as they entered the bar, not wanting to get her brain fried, entered the bathroom. But part of the reason she didn't want to see anyone was that she didn't want anyone to see her vampire features that had come forward due to her anger.
Skylar stormed into the women's bathroom which was bare due to the screams of Elena that had lured everyone out. The female vampire paced back and forth, hands clenched at her sides and, just as she was about to hit the mirror and anger, the door opened.
She opened her lips to demand the person to leave or to drain them but noticed it was Klaus.
But, instead of shouting at her for damaging the woman whose blood could create his army, he looked amused.
"That's gonna leave a scar, love."
Skylar didn't stop her pacing as she retorted."Aren't you going to scold me for damaging your precious doppelgänger?"
"It's not deep enough to scold you about but surely deep enough to scar her."Klaus replied as he shut the door to the bathroom behind him and leaning against it."I don't care what she looks like, as long as the blood running through her veins remains there until it drain it."
Skylar continued to pace back and forth; her vampire features still visible.
"At least there's someone not enamoured with the bitch."Her blood red eyes and fangs made her look even angrier as she brushed her dark hair from her face."When are you gonna kill her? Can I be there?"
"I'll be sure to give you a front seat."Klaus laughed, straightening from the door as he stepped closer to the Salvatore."Once I drain her for my hybrids, love, I'll deliver Elena's head to you on a silver platter."
Red eyes met his own as Skylar replied."I think that's the sweetest thing someone's ever said to me."
Smiling at her comment, Klaus' hands framed her face, and a serious look appeared on her face."Don't let her get to you; she's just a blip in your immortal life."
Klaus kept his eyes on her blood red vampire ones before he leant down and met her lips with his own once again. The female vampire almost gasped in shock as Klaus pecked her lips tenderly as if he were trying to comfort her through a simple kiss.
The two stood silently for second after the kiss until Klaus' eyes opened again, his green/blue eyes searching her own, a small smile on his face. Skylar, confused by his smile, opened her mouth to ask why he was smiling but was stopped when her tongue felt no fangs, just her human teeth.
Her human face had come forward.
Klaus' kiss had quelled her rage.
Klaus didn't look smug; he didn't brag about it. Instead, he just smiled at her, something that surprised her.
Skylar returned Klaus' smile before she whispered, a hungry look in her eyes.
"Love?"
Then, before he could process what was happening, he was pushed back against the door.
Klaus, startled, stumbled for a second before he gathered himself. His eyes widened slightly as fingers curled in the lapel of his jacket and he was pulled down. The Original was surprised once more as Skylar claimed his lips with her own as if she were hungry for something that only he could give.
The Salvatore released a moan as Klaus regained his composure, returning the kiss and taking control, just how she liked it. The hybrid grabbed her hands, winding them around his neck and he deepened the kiss as he pulled her closer up against him which caused her to arch up into him.
The two broke apart a moment later, Klaus' smirk returning as she tugged at his hair.
"You're telling me all I had to do was be nice and i'd get this reaction?"
Skylar smiled against his lips, hand on the back of his neck.
Klaus felt his heart race again.
Her smile was genuine and, for some reason, he wanted to see it again.
"Uh-huh."She nodded, fingers tangled in his curls."Don't be too nice, though; it ruins the whole bad boy vibe I like."
Klaus raised his eyebrows in amusement, retorting."Noted."
Skylar returned his grin before it faded.
"Klaus?"
He hummed, silently telling that she had his attention.
"Can we go home now?"
The Original released a breathy laugh before he nodded."As you wish."
He turned, offering the Salvatore his arm and she took it without a second thought.
