Luna Pov

...

I opened my eyes only to be met with the sun's bright light. I groaned and turned over, not really wanting to move I was so comfortable. I was also a little sore. This place felt, and smelled oddly familiar. I wondered if I was dreaming. I looked down to see that I was tightly tucked in. I lifted the blanket up to find that I was wearing a t-shirt, and luckily my bra and panties. I picked up the front and smelled it. My heart sunk, it smelled like him.This washis bed,I was inhis room.I was inhis shirt. Had we slept together?

I asked myself because if I was being completely and totally honest it wouldn't be the first time me dreaming aboutus.Not that I would ever admit it to him or any one else.It was strange.For me to think of him, inthatway. Saying things,doingthings that would piss both Damon and Hayley off.

I quietly got out of bed. I tensed hearing something. It sounded familiar, like a paintbrush on a canvas.

I walked a little further wincing, at the coldness of the floor. I tensed when the sound stopped. It then resumed, and I exhaled relieved.

I had to resist the urge to scream. There he was in all of his glory. He was wearing one of his dark gray long-sleeved t-shirts. I loved it when he wore them, they huggedhischest perfectly.

"Well, that's the first time you've been able to walk up on me. Have you been practicing?"

I bit back a gasp,hisvoice sounded so real. I cleared my throat, "No, I guess it's because I spend most of my time around vampires and hybrids. Some things you just learn to pick up," I said, referring to all of the vampires I knew, plus Klaus and Hayley.Hepaused for a moment and turned around to look at me. I smiled, andheset the paintbrush down and the palet.

I took a deep breath, and then he smiled at me.He took my hand and led me outside to the balcony. It was a little chilly, but I was warmed up enough withhimholding my hand.

"So, what did you think of our date last night."

I smiled, looking at the city around us. "It was great, I can't wait to go again," I said, the first thing that came to mind even though I didn't have the memory ofourdate, I knew that I would have wanted another one. I knew that it would have been amazing. Everything with him was amazing, even in my dreams.Hesmiled and let go of my hand. I looked up confused, did I say something wrong.Heplacedhishand on my waist pulling me closer, againsthim.

Warmth flooded through my core, my legs were unsteady, and my breathing unstable.

I gasped, surprised whenhislips brushed against mine gently. I moaned when he deepened the kiss. He was a really good kisser. This couldn't be real, but it felt so undeniably good... While I was here, I might as well enjoy it anyway.

...

I coughed and sat up. Feeling very hot and sweaty. I looked down to see I was in a tank top and a pair of Pajama pants that looked a lot like Rebekah's. My body was still warm from my dream.

I felt the back of my head, careful with my movements, I was sore.

It all came to me then. Kol finding me, Kol being daggered, Kol telling me to run, turning into a wolf to avoid getting captured by Ester's minions...

"I thought you would never wake up."

I turned too quickly, wincing when I did. But I ignored it, the pain when I saw the speaker of those words. It washim.

"Klaus?" I asked, and he nodded, walking closer to me with a concerned look on his face.

"Yes, who else would it be. You need to lie down. I'll go get you some water." I winced, sitting up to grab his arm.

"Wait, don't leave."

He winced at my words turning around. He folded his arms over his chest.

"I'll stay, but only if you lay down. But you need to stay hydrated."

After saying those 14 little words, he left. Out of those 14, only two were my favorite;I'll stay. I sighed, laying back into the warm mattress. I smiled, noticing that I was in his room. I guess dreams do come true, well, at least parts of them.

"What are you smiling about?" I gasped and turned to see Klaus holding a glass of water.

"Uhhh, it's nothing, I was just thinking about something."

I took the glass and sent him a smile, it was meant to be a 'thankful' one, but I think it came out as more nervous.

Now he made me nervous.

Our fingers had brushed briefly when I had taken the cool glass of water, which didn't help anything. I drained the glass down, happy to satisfy my dry throat. Klaus sat next to me on the bed and smirked.

"So, what were you smiling about?"

I smiled, "I missed that," I said without thinking. His lips parted slightly in confusion, I would guess.

"Your smirk, in fact, I missed everything about you. I don't think I would be able to take it if I was away from you that long again," he laughed lightly, but it sounded differently strained like he was stressed or something.

"Don't change the subject."

I frowned slightly this was going to be really embarrassing, I decided that I would tell himeverythingabout the dream.

"Ohh...it was just a dream," I said, trying to dismiss it. I sat up slowly, my stomach twisting and turning in knots.

"What was it about?" I looked down at the floor.

"You," I answered, honestly not being able to lie like I had wanted to. I looked up and then looked back down, embarrassed.

He had been looking at me, and a peculiar expression was on his face. He looked surprised almost.

I frowned, noticing my hands shake. I gasped, surprised when his hands held mine. My hands stopped shaking when I met his gaze. He looked up at me confused, and then he dropped them and turned to walk out.

I winced at the loss of contact but slipped out of the bed, and ran past him, blocking the doorway. I winced at the sudden burst of energy. He stood there patiently, arms folded across his chest.

"Where are you going?"

I asked, straightening up. Ignoring the soreness, I felt.

"Well, you're obviously afraid of me so, I think it's best if I just leave."

He said trying to push past me. I grabbed onto his arm, and he turned to look at me.

"Why would you think I'm afraid of you?" I asked, confused.

"Because you were shaking, you're obviously nervous around me." He moved to leave again, but I got in front of him. Putting my hands on his chest to prevent him from leaving.

"Klaus, I am not afraid of you."

"Oh, really?" He asked, and I nodded. Before I could blink, the next thing I knew was being up against the wall, with his arms on either side of me, trapping me. I wasn't hurt or frightened. Nervous thinking of what might happen next. Nervous because of my thoughts running wild.

He then leaned closer to me out faces were inches apart, I inhaled sharply, suppressing a gasp. I couldn't bite my lip either, so I did the first thing that came to mind. Taking a deep breath to calm myself.

"See," he exclaimed, putting his hands in the air.

"It's you too. Even you see me for the monster I am-" I cut him off by walking over to him. "You are not a monster. I am not afraid of you. Just because I'm nervous around you doesn't mean I'm afraid of you. I can't count the number of times you have saved my life."

Klaus frowned, and he grabbed my shoulder, gently. "You need rest, in sorry for keeping you up." He said as he led me back to the bed.

"Don't apologize, I don't mind." I then laid down, and then he proceeds to cover me up. He smiled down at me and turned away to leave.

"Will you stay?" I asked and mentally slapped myself in the back of the head, did I really just say that? I asked myself. "Al-Sure," he smirked as we climbed into the bed. I closed my eyes thinking.

That was weird, he had never stuttered before it sounded like he was going to say something besides 'sure.'

I shivered cold.

"Are you cold?" Came a voice not too far from below my ear. I shivered slightly and said, "yes." But it came out like a whisper.

For a moment, I wondered if he had heard me.

Then I found myself being pulled closer. I smiled, finally satisfied, feeling warm. I resisted the strong urge to turn around and wrap my arms around him. I was shocked when he put his arm around my waist. I leaned back, the back of my head now on his chest. I could feel his breath on my neck.

I shivered again though this time it wasn't because of the cold. He wrapped his arm tighter around me. I resisted the urge to moan by biting my lip. I tasted blood, but I ignored it. Suddenly aware of everything in the room. Everything was heightened. His heartbeat on me. It felt strong, steady. It beat with confidence, and held no fault unlike my own. I wondered if he could hear my heartbeat.

What would he think when he heard the sound of my heart and my breathing? When he heard the irregular beat, every time he so much as touched me or looked my way?

I frowned, feeling tired. Of course, my body wants to sleep when Klaus finally has his arms around me, well arm but still. It wasn't fair, I decided to give in. I wanted to be well-rested for whatever tomorrow would bring.

A part of me hoping to finish the dream that I had woken up from...just five more minutes...
