Mia POV.

When I woke up the first thing I did was giggle, Kol was snuggling up to me with both his arms wrapped around me and was currently kissing up my neck making a tickling sensation shiver down my fingers and toes.

Not that I was complaining.

"Morning darling. How did you sleep with yours truly right next to you?" He murmured between kisses and little nips.

"I slept fine, though you hogged the blankets" I snickered before yelping as he rolled us over so he was hovering over me with a mischievous grin coating his face.

Gulping I offered a shy smile before releasing a sigh of relief when there was a knock at the door.

"Mia? Kol? We need to leave in half an hour if we want to get to school in time, not to mention, Kol needs to enroll for classes." Rebekah's voice hollered with her typical annoyed English lilt.

"Crap!" I yelped before rolling over the bed underneath Kol's caging arms before almost leaping to the bathroom to shower quickly while I left a shocked Kol on the bed glaring at the door.

Showering with the provided honey and cream scented shampoo and conditioner before cleaning myself in pomegranate scented body wash before shaving.

After drying off and brushing my hair and teeth I wrapped myself in the large blue towel before going to the wardrobe noting that Kol left most likely to get ready.

Slipping on some underwear and a navy blue skirt I slipped a long sleeved black shirt on which slightly bellowed before being tucked into my skirt. Hesitating a little I shrugged before sliding on some white tights and a pair of blue and black plaid trainers and slipping on my satchel making sure my Ipod, phone, keys and purse were all inside already knowing all my books were in my school locker.

Checking the time on my phone I sighed knowing there was still ten minutes until we needed to leave.

Slumping downstairs I nodded a morning to Klaus as he exited his bedroom in his pajama bottoms glaring slightly at my happiness.

"Not a morning person?" I asked with a smile, whilst refraining a laugh at his low growl.

We continued to walk down the stairs in silence (occasionally disterbed by his yawns) when we made it to the kitchen. The tense air made us both pause in the doorway at the sudden change of environment.

In the room Rebekah was standing leaning against the cream marble counter with Kol sat on it next to her while Elijah was standing by the coffee machine and they were all glaring at the last sibling.

In the center of the room stood by the large table was Finn and an older woman with graying blonde hair sat on one of the chairs almost projecting an annoyance towards the other occupants of the house.

At our entrance all eyes darted to us. The woman - who I assumed was their mother - glared subtly at me and Klaus while Finn looked at me confused at who I was.

"Klaus." the woman said in a cold greeting before her almost reptilian eyes looked at me.

"And guests. I think we need a little privacy Miss...?" She asked slightly harshly as a shiver chilled my spine.

As I opened my mouth to reply Kol came to my side and wrapped an arm around my waist directing the woman's glare to him and then flick to Klaus and to me again gaining more venom (if possible).

"Mother, this is Miss Mia Dell, she lives here now and is Kol's mate, is all our friend and a very loyal person." Elijah said in my place before Rebekah stood straight and simply murmured to myself and Kol that we needed to leave for school.

"Miss Dell?" The woman said as me and Kol turned and began leaving the room, me only saying bye to Klaus and Elijah as I went.

Pausing I turned slightly enough to look her in the face, and not liking what I saw.

"Yes Mrs Mikealson?" I said making sure I was polite but I knew that we both sensed the uncomfortable dislike between us. Most likely everyone else did as well.

"So polite...I would like to have a word with you, in private." She said while standing and brushing her long skirt as she went.

"Sorry. I have school." I said as Kol tugged me further to the kitchen door wanting to leaver faster.

"Well dear. Maybe when you get home." She said slightly glaring at my refusal.

"Maybe." I said not bothering with formalities or politeness knowing that she was planning something and it wasn't good, not only was she almost shooting fire out her eyes but I could remember Klaus mentioning to us all when she first came back that she was acting strange and we should all keep an eye on her and Finn, though Finn was a less likely threat providing we found Sage for him to anchor himself if that made sense.

Leaving the house, Bekah and Kol each released a breath of relief.

"She's up to something..." Rebekah murmured, me and her discussed how much she admired her mother when she was dead and she told me that she was very cold to Tatia and could be incredibly malicious.

"No doubt." Kol said bitingly. Though he loved being a vampire I think both he and Rebekah would have wanted to age a little before they were thrown into the world of the supernatural. Though witches/warlocks before they were stabbed and murdered by their father and mother turned into the creature never heard of or seen and they hadn't even fully matured.

We all piled into Rebekahs Jeep before driving in silence to school.

"I will take Kol and get him enrolled, since your lockers near mine do you mind grabbing my books before class?" I asked Rebekah as her locker was about six down from mine, we had all the same classes other than art and history.

"Of course I don't mind, see you in a few." She said with a smile trying to cheer herself up after the little confrontation this morning.

Taking Kol's hand we walked to the student support before waiting a moment for the other student to finish before reaching the desk.

"Hello Mrs Lang, this is Kol Mikealson, a new student - brother of Rebekah." I said smiling at the older brunette who grinned at me before typing his name in and asking a few basic questions before printing out a schedule and locker number before grabbing a leaflet map thing and handing them to him as he smiled dashingly and led the way out as I thanked her.

Grinning, I looked over his time table and noted that other than Math and PE we shared the same classes and his locker was next to Rebekahs.

Just as the bell rang we entered our first class and I led him to the back where me and Rebekah often sat, Caroline was just in front of me and Elena and Stefan in front of her. Kol grabbed his books from the teacher and then sat on my other side so I had a Mikaelson on either side of me and the rest of my classes went like that.

Once the final bell rang Kol was moaning about the cheerleaders and 'popular' girls that kept flirting with him as me and Rebekah laughed ... though I may have been clenching my teeth on a few occasions.

"Well I got cheer-leading practice, you two want to watch?" She asked, already knowing the answer would be no - or in Kol's words a snicker and a comment of 'darling sister the only woman I want to watch dance that temptingly is my little vixen'. Which promptly made me blush as she laughed.

And so me and Kol ended up at the Grill in a booth.

"What do you think your mother wants to talk to me about?" I asked as I munched on a chip from the large plate we got to share.

"I don't know darling, but when you have that talk please be careful. While I will always love my mother, I don't trust her. But I know what she is like, she wants to talk to you then you will end up talking to her whether you want to or not and since the golden boy seems to be hanging around her no doubt they are sharing their plans. I hate to admit it darling but I can't trust them and neither can you because whereas before I would fight head on, now I have something to lose and that's you." He said quietly for a change and I could see the genuine fear in his eyes that his mother would do something and break the last caring emotions they all had for her because of her view.

I nodded and rubbed his hand gently before leaning over the booth and gently kissed his cheek to let him know I was here for him.

"I will be wary Kol, and I have the most terrifying concept that I could lose you, well all of you and I know we have been through alot over such a small time but this is a magnetic relationship and if I lose you I can't imagine how I would live on." I murmured with tears bubbling in my eyes, I was scared. I was finally happy and it was thanks to him, Rebekah, Klaus and Elijah and the plans that their mother and possibly Finn might have would destroy everything that has made my life worth living.

What we didn't know was that Finn was at the bar listening to every word we uttered.


Please review, I would love to know what you think.
