I saw a prompt and had to do it.Also I'm feeling really uninspired for addicted right now, but i did start a story set during season 4 of TVD/one of TO about Elena and her humanity.
Elena flips through the pages littering her desk and curses herself for not numbering them earlier. She should know better by now; this is her fourth year living with the Originals so she knows she should always expect her desk to get flipped over at the most inconvenient of times.
She is cursing everyone and everything when the object of her annoyance saunters into the study she has claimed as her own. She doesn't look up, not trusting herself not to yell.
"Hey," he greets with a smirk, "I didn't kill anyone today."
"Great; what do you want?" Elena scoffs and cocks an eyebrow, looking up from her task. "A gold star?"
"Well, yeah," Kol grins.
Elena turns her full attention to him only to see that he isn't looking at her but at Caroline.
"Seriously?" She scoffs.
"New systems," Caroline shrugs.
"When I get ten I get a treat," his grin grows.
She thinks he looks like a kid in a candy store.
"I see," Elena nods. She picks up the small stack that comprises the first two chapters of her latest novel. "How many do you lose for this mess?"
"I only lose stars for killing people," he explains, shoving his hands in his pockets.
"It's a system that works…" Caroline grimaces, "… sort of."
"Well, you need another one for general misbehavior," she holds back her huff.
"I'm working on that."
"You two realize I'm not a child, right?"
Caroline and Elena exchange a look and a nod before turning to him.
"We've yet to see evidence of that."
His smile turns to a pout.
