...

I sighed putting my head in my hands, feeling completely zapped of my energy. It's been a very very long, hard month filled with sleepless and eat-less nights. After he died there was no one else to protect the innocents from the demons and other evil entities. Demons from the under world if I was being more specific. They loved to kill good witches, so they could get their powers or for what ever reason. My family had a well known name to the demons and evil beings of this world. My family along with the name came with a dangerous line of work that wasn't exactly suited for the faint of heart. Most witch families weren't as powerful as ours had been. In fact we were the strongest, that is why demons feared us. Feared my family name and my family history. It was why they hunted my family among all others in the magical/witch community. My family the Halliwell's had vanquished the most demons in history. It was not only because of the powerful potions we brewed, or all the training exercises we did. It was about the raw power. Our abilities separated us form all of the other witch families, it's one of the many things that made us stronger compared to them, and them weaker. The spells we made and the spells our ancestors created. We put all of our selves and our power into the spells. And that's what made us such a threat to the demons in the underworld, and just evil period. The Halliwell's were said, well prophesied to destroy all evil. I didn't know if that was even close to being true, but the demons believed. And that kept them away well most of the time. And even if they did come around then they would be vanquished, destroyed, and sent back into the underworld, hell, where ever they belonged but it was not on earth.

Back to my physical health I had lost at least twenty pounds from not eating, I could now see my ribs. I stopped working out and exercising all together. What was the point, I didn't have any time anymore. I was busy. Dad's been up there with the elders trying to convince them to bring him back (my brother back) either as a whitelighter or even as a mortal again. But as usual the elders were being a bunch of dicks so there wasn't any progress being made, and that made me angry, no that made me furious. My brother was a good person, well he had been a good person when he had been alive. He doesn't deserve to stay dead. He was probably all alone and terrified. After all my family had done for them, the elders, all we ever got was a slap in the face. Every single time, it was a cycle that tended to repeat itself over and over again. We Halliwell's had sacrificed so much, so much for them just to sit back on their thrones in there fancy white robes. My brother, my older brother the only sibling I had. The only family I had left besides my dad and my grandpa. He was gone. I had three aunts but they were all dead, just like my mom. I don't even have a memory of any of them. Wyatt remembers but only a little, but when he had been alive he didn't like to talk about them much, because it made him sad. And he wasn't wrong our family had a sad history, but I wanted to know everything. He was lucky, well he had been lucky he had memories and all I had left to sort through are old dusty photographs. It was sad that they hadn't even made it to 25 years old, they died younger than they should have. Being a Halliwell after a while of demon slaying you start to feel invincible because of how many demon's you killed. Because of how much evil you purged from the world. But in my world nothing was always invincible. I think that's what happened they had let all that power go to there head, that had been there fatal mistake. They had been killed. Not by any weird human stalker, not by some rouge witch, but by demons. They had been killed by demons, that's where the all-powerful charmed one's were in the ground, 6ft under. We had to make a special place for there bodies because demons and other family enemies would dig them up, and try to bring them back, or worse. It was just to hard to handle seeing there decaying bodies, and my grandpa told me my dad that he couldn't take seeing them like that anymore. So they were cremated, burned down to nothing but ash. Locked away somewhere in the house. I did not know of it's location. I did not want to know. Then there had been the charmed generation 2.0, and that had been me and my only brother Wyatt. We had a lot on our plates as teenagers. More than any one should really. Juggling not only school (magic school at that), demon hunting and killing/vanquishing, and whitelighter lessons from my Dad. Even though for a while Wyatt was the only one that could orb, Dad still thought it was important to teach me everything. In the end it was all worth it. He promised me that I would get my powers, that they would just take some time to grow. I remember not believing him at first. Because if I was born with powers why didn't I have them now? And why isn't Wyatt having trouble like me? He had smiled and said it would take some time, and that every first born always had there powers first, and that every kid after that had to work for it. At the time I though that was unfair, and I still felt that way. But that is exactly what I did. I worked my ass off. Not only in magic school but studying to. I spent all my free time in the attic. All those months I spent up there studying, I had gotten very familiar with the attic. Reading about demons, powers, potions, and everything in-between. I stayed up late focusing trying to orb. Dad said every time that he did it. He just thought about where he needed to go, why he needed to go there, and the motivation behind it. It took me a while at first. Some times I was to tired to practice. So I would have to take days off. It was becoming a job for me. Some times I had to much homework and missing assignments from magic school, but some how, some way I managed to accomplish my goal. I was able to orb anywhere as long as I had all of my energy, so I wouldn't over exert myself and end up getting hurt. Sure I wasn't strong enough back then to orb from one country to the next, but I was getting some where and that was better than nothing if you asked me. I had felt like I was now Wyatt's equal because I could orb like him. I was a lot happier because I didn't have all that pressure on myself. I had gotten my powers shortly after being able to orb. Wyatt had a power to. He could throw fire in his hands, as he got older he was able to create it he didn't need a source any more. But he never liked to use it. He preferred to use his more passive whitelighter side than his firey one. He was the good one, or the angel boy as the kids used to call him. He was more like my dad than I was. He could do no wrong. He was like a knight in shining armor. The girls loved it, even some of the guy's did to. I was known as the outsider of our small but powerful family, and magic school. I was a Halliwell to but so was Wyatt he just seemed to get more love for it than I did. I was an outsider for many reasons. I wasn't as athletic as Wyatt, I didn't get my powers until I was fifteen, I looked out of place in all of our family portraits. And yes Dad made us take one one for Christmas, and every year on some random day. I was the one with the dark brown hair, the paler one. Compared to Dad, grandpa Victor, and Wyatt. Dad had brown hair, but it was so light it could have passed off as blonde, but he was naturally tan like Wyatt. Wyatt had a natural tan like Dad and grandpa except neither of them had the golden blonde hair prince look. Everyone was a lot bigger than me to. Victor my grandpa, Dad, and Wyatt were all taller than me. It wasn't by much just a couple of inches but they were still taller than me. They were also more bulkier than me to. Even though I worked-out, lifted weights, and exercised regularly I could never seem to get my arms the same size as there's. I was what they called lanky, I was still strong, I just wasn't like them. Everyone besides me has blue eyes. My eyes are green, which is weird because no one in my family has them. I feel out of place some times because I don't fit in. I remember feeling relieved when I could orb, I just felt like I fit in a little more than before. After I got used to orbing and having my powers on call and demand. I never felt un-comfortable with my brother Wyatt, because now I felt more relaxed. After that day I could feel our bond grow and develop as brothers. I couldn't imagine a life without him, but now I was living one but this time without him. I did not cry, or at least I tried not to. That would mean that this was really happening. That I wasn't going to have a brother anymore. I didn't want to face reality. Instead I chose to treat this all like some messed up crazy dream inside of my head. I couldn't accept or face the fact that there would be no Wyatt. But the truth was now he was gone, he had broken his promise to me, he had left me here. In this big empty house, all alone. Even though he had been killed by a demon I still blamed him. I blamed him for his stubbornness and his stupidity at times like this. I had given him specific instructions on how to kill the demon, since he often insisted to do it himself. He was always wondering if he could take down a demon without me or Dad. So just this one time I decided to see how he would do by himself. I didn't realize that would be the worst mistake of my life. If I could take it back I would, but I couldn't erase time no matter how much I wanted to. I felt like it was my fault. The guilt was crushing me, that much was obvious. Dad didn't blame me, but he was angry with me. And a part of me didn't blame him for being angry at me. Victor, my grandpa was always there to comfort me, or give me his advice, or sometimes even smoke a cigar. But he wasn't here now, and neither was Dad. I had the old cat Kit to keep me company but she was sleeping in my room, on my bed as always. Poor cat, the old age is catching up with her. I don't think I've ever been so alone in my life. I missed having human contact, and human interaction. I didn't go to the store to get groceries or anything really. In face I didn't go outside the house at all. Every few weeks Victor would stop by make me dinner, re-stock the cabinets and the fridge. But I mostly think he was making sure I was alive. It was hard because I always had Wyatt with me, but now he was gone. Just like mom, my aunts, and my ex-girlfriend Kayla who I cared a lot about. Kayla died of cancer a few years ago. She had been my first crush in magic school and ever really. She had been a very powerful witch, in fact her house wan't to far away from mine. She had bright red hair and warm brown eyes. She had the nicest smile. I remember she used to always put her hair up in a high ponytail. I remember sitting behind her at a desk wanting to reach out and just touch it. I wondered if it was as soft as it had been in my dreams. Wyatt eventually slipped up and told Kayla (they had been friends at that time) that I had a crush on her. I remember wanting to do the demons' work instead, killing Wyatt but this time succeeding. I've never been more embarrassed in my life. The next day in class I was nervous. Normally I would enjoy this class because this was the only one we had together. But I was scared that she would be disgusted and then everyone would start talking about how I liked her. Kayla had been a very popular girl in magic school. But she wasn't snobby like the others, she was decent, kind even. But the thing is she wasn't disgusted with me at all like the other girls. She had said that she was flattered. I remember what she wore when she asked me out. I must have been so shocked that I didn't answer, because I vividly remember Wyatt answering for me. The first date wasn't the best, considering that this was my 'first' ever date. We had went to a McDonald's and we ordered our food. We took it outside of the restaurant and ate it on one of the many picnic benches that sat outside under the shade of a tree. I remember that day being hot, very hot. Almost to hot, even for San-Francisco. Later I discovered that there had been a demon behind that. But with the help of Wyatt and Dad the demon was long vanquished. Kayla asked for a second date. I remember being confused, did I do something right? The second date was a lot better than the first. It wasn't quiet because we were talking to each other about anything and everything. I was happy I didn't have to hide the fact that I was half whitelighter, half witch from her. Dad used to talk about how my aunts and my mom would struggle with it. But I was happy that I didn't have to. I thought Kayla was the one. This wasn't teenage boy hormones swinging out of control. This was real, I could feel it. Kayla had been my first everything. I wasn't upset with that fact either. Everything was going great. We were all (me, Wyatt, and Kayla), almost done with magic school. Just one more semester to go. Demon's had stopped showing up, reasons unbeknownst to me. But I didn't care because I was having the time of my life. I was happy because I had someone else's company besides' Wyatt. Happy because me and my dad were now fighting less. He even stopped by to have dinner with Kalya a few times, which was a huge thing. He told me that he liked her, which was also a plus. But he never seemed to find the time to do that with Wyatt's girlfriends. Perhaps because he would go through them like nothing. It wasn't that he was a cruel man, and enjoyed hurting others (because my brother was the exact opposite of that) I really didn't know why. I was happy because Victor like her to. Kayla got sick then. When I asked her about it she just said some demon that caused illness was in her house the other day. She had vanquished it but she had gotten herself sick in the process. That night I remember having dinner with her parents. They seemed to like me, but I could tell something was wrong. They looked almost nervous, and I knew it wasn't because of me. Their hands shook and their voices quivered. Their house phone rang out, loud and shrill. I'll never forget the look on Kayla's face when she heard it. Kayla had gone pale, her parent's to. Kalya's mother Jenny had gotten up. She made her way to the phone. Kayla's mother Jenny sank down to the floor after a while of being on the phone. Kalya's father Rupert had went to his wife. Excusing himself from the table before doing so. He comforted her, and led her away. I continued eating the dinner Kayla's father had cooked. It was meatloaf, with a side of oven baked potatoes and ketchup. Usually I hated meatloaf but I found myself liking this one. "I'm dying," Kayla had said after a while of silence between us. My hand apparently forgot that I had my fork in it's tight hand because I heard it clatter to the plate. "What?" I had asked, was I hearing her right. No way, Kalya had told me of stories before how her and her family where good pranksters, surely this all had to be part of some act. Well if it was they put some serious thinking into it. But after a while I started to notice how pale she really was. I could now see some of her freckles on her face, they usually didn't stand out. But the eye's are what bothered me the most. I remember them being filled with their own light, but now they were just empty, with no light at all. That's when I knew this was serious. She told me that she had some curse put on her as a baby. That she was going to die when she turned seventeen. Kayla's birthday was in the next two months. Kayla told me that phone call was just confirming what they already knew, but her parent's didn't want to accept. She had told me that she had known that she was going to die when she was seventeen when she was five. I had been a little angry that she hadn't told me. After that dinner continued on as normal. Although her parent's hadn't come back though. The light in her eye's had come back, and everything seemed to be going the way things used to. I put on a fake smile and I even faked a few laughs. That was just an act though, I was really tore up about it on the inside. After a couple hours past my curfew I decided that it was time to come home. I kissed her and told her that I would see her in class Monday morning. But things didn't just feel the same. I wasn't cold or distant with her. Although I had missed a couple of our dates, because I had been working on something. I was trying to find a way to safe her life and break the curse. But I was out of time, a month and a half had already gone by. And by that time Kayla was in the hospital. I visited her as often as I could. I got real pissed off when dad told me I couldn't miss school, just so I could spend the day with her. He didn't understand, he didn't get it at all. He never understood anything when it came to me. It seemed like he always understood Wyatt better than me. Luckily I had Victor, my wonderful, amazing grandfather who would often lie for me. He would take me to the hospital himself. I remember her last day, her birthday. I brought her favorite flowers, as usual. I even invested in getting a teddy bear which she loved. I remember she felt embarrassed to see me. She hadn't put her wig on yet. She had lost all of her hair thanks to the cancer treatments the hospital was trying. But they weren't working either as to be expected. I spent the whole day with her, even though today was an important die back in magic school. We were supposed to take a bunch of tests and do certain things for certain teachers. But I didn't care about anything like that. I cared about Kayla, and anyone who had a problem with that could go die, for all I cared. Kalya told me that she wanted me to go finish school that she wasn't important. But I told her that she meant the world to me, and I wouldn't leave her not today. She didn't say anything else about it after that. Besides I had nothing to worry about, Wyatt and Victor were both covering for me. Kalya wanted to go out side, and smell fresh air but the hospital wouldn't allow her to. But after getting a piece of paper, a pencil, and a lighter I had all the things I needed to make a new spell. In no time we were walking around in the park, she was outside just like she wanted to be. But we were in some dream state, I was happy that the spell worked, because of it Kayla was happy. Then everything turned sour. She started coughing up blood, it was a bad mess. I was dragged out of the hospital room by five really buff male RN's. I fought back even harder when she started calling my name, but it was no use. They were to strong. I had no choice but to sit behind the glass and watch as they worked over her. Checking her vitals which weren't the best. I called her parent's telling them what had happened. And they showed up shortly after that. Watching them through the glass like me. It wasn't long before Wyatt showed up along with our grandfather. I remember them standing on either side of me, both of their hands on my shoulders trying to comfort me. I had my eye's locked on Kalya. And when I couldn't see her I had them locked on the heart monitor. I didn't realize what had happened at first. I was confused, my adrenaline clouding my brain and my thought process. What did that mean? Why did the beeping noise stop? That couldn't mean that- I remember being pulled out of my head when Wyatt started crying on my shoulder. I looked at him and then to Kalya but why wasn't she moving. She was moving just a few seconds ago. It couldn't have been that fast, this wasn't the end not for Kalya. Then it happened I broke. But not in tears like Wyatt, I broke in anger. They couldn't take her from me, why? She was such a good person. Good people don't deserve a fate like this. I pounded on the glass, ordering them to get away from her. I remember Wyatt and Victor having to drag me away. I had adrenaline coursing through my veins, but I couldn't fight them off. I had no chance to, Wyatt had orbed me and Victor home. Where dad was, angry as always with me. He started yelling at me then but before I could retort Wyatt started in. (That was the first time Wyatt fought with dad over me, and it wouldn't be the last either) I was to tired emotionally and physically to be shocked and surprised. I remember Victor leading me away from all the fighting and the yelling. He led me away to my room. He tucked covered me up, and tucked me in. Just like he used to do when I was small. He sat there for a while telling me everything was going to be alright, as I cried. I cried and cried until I couldn't anymore. I couldn't even force myself to open my eyes they were so sore. Day's after that I remember feeling guilty. Guilty because I felt like I failed her. Guilty because I didn't try hard enough to save her. Kayla was the first innocent I wasn't able to save, and I promised her and myself that there wouldn't be any one else. And thankfully there hadn't been.

But that was all in the past, when my brother was still alive. Now I had no choice to live in the present, no matter how much it hurt. I wondered how long I was going to last, here by myself. I didn't know how to cook. I didn't much care to for driving, Victor or Wyatt took me where I needed to go. I could have orbed I just didn't think I could take it, psychically at least, being as low on energy as I was. Of course I had Dad. I had already finished and graduated magic school, like Wyatt. Dad could drive but he was working. Not only with his charges, but with the elders, Trying to convince them to bring Wyatt back, I hadn't heard from him in two day, which was weird. Usually he would orb in and tell me what was going on, and where he was but he hadn't. And I didn't like the fact that the last interaction we had was fighting. I was just so angry at him for brushing Wyatt's death off like it was nothing, for not being a better father, for leaving me and Wyatt alone without a father for so long. Dad was around sometimes but he always had to work, guiding future white-lighters and witches.

And that was great and all for them, but I sometimes just wanted my dad. And I think sometimes he forgot about that. The fact that he was a father of two, well now one. And if he kept acting like this he was soon going to be a father of none. I tried bringing that up with him but it made him even angrier. Then he raised his voice and I raised mine. You know how it goes. I don't remember all that was said, because I had been so angry, but I knew it had been hurtful. I mean I was basically raised by my grandpa and he had just received news that he had 1 year or more to live, he was dying of cancer. The man who raised me, was going to die, and he was an innocent I couldn't save, just like Kayla. It seemed like I was losing everyone around me. But I couldn't fight his cancer like a demon. He had to do this on his own, I couldn't help him, or heal him. And now I was going to lose him, who was next my dad, me? I had lost my mom before I had even been born, my dad being a whitelighter. He had said that he had saved me, but something didn't really sound right with his story. Something inside me, told me that there was more to it then he was willing to say or tell me. There was just this feeling, that I couldn't explain.

I wished that I could just have my brother back, I wished that I could meet my mother and my four aunts even if it was just once. Even if it was for just five minutes. I didn't know much about her except what she looked like and her name. Piper, Piper Halliwell. We had pictures of her and my aunts all over the house. She looked the most motherly out of all of her sisters. With her soft features. I knew that she had the power to freeze time, that she was the middle sister. But I was the youngest and I had the power of telekinesis and the ability to orb when I had the energy. Wyatt also had the ability to orb, but he had fire power, it had been in his hands. I knew that telekinesis had been my Aunt Pru's thing. I wished I could ask her about tips for these powers. Maybe she would know something that could help me use them better. I also knew she could astro-project. I wished I could ask her about that to. I had so many questions, but not a single answer.

I sighed getting up hearing the doorbell ring. I put the notes that I had made, and the book of shadows down before leaving the attic. I opened the front door to find Victor, my grandfather standing there holding some Starbucks coffee and a paper bag in his hands. I was happy to see him, it had been a while. He was always so busy these days. Especially since Wyatt was gone, maybe because it was to painful, if it was I didn't blame him."I brought coffee and donuts, I figured you could use a break from all of that hard work you've been doing." He said as I stepped aside to let him in, smiling a little. Besides grandpa Wyatt had been the only one to make me smile.

"How do you know I've been working hard?" I asked as we walked into the kitchen. "Because I am your grandpa, and grandpa's know everything. Including the fact that you haven't slept more than three hours all week, judging by the heavy bags under your eyes." I took a seat on one of the four chairs at the dining room table. My grandfather sat across from me.

We drank our coffee and ate our donuts in silence. Since there wasn't much to talk about. In truth I couldn't remember the last time I had eaten anything. I've just been so busy, working on a way to bring Wyatt back.

I heard the familiar sound of my dad coming home. A twinkling sound almost, he didn't bother to use the front door he just orbed.

"So Leo how did it go with them?" Victor asked pointing to the ceiling, but I knew he was talking about the elders. My dad seemed to know who Victor was referring to. Because his shoulders seemed to slump down even further, as if he was holding the weight of the world. Which he probably was. I didn't feel sorry for him. If he had just come home occasionally and would have spent time with his two sons none of this would be happening right now. "Not good, but they did give me some other information." Said my dad. Taking a seat next to Victor. He had been avoiding me lately because we got into this big fight, and I didn't mind that. I didn't think I was going to forgive him any time soon, and I had a feeling that he felt the same way.

"Well if that's it, I'm going to go back up to the attic. See if I can find anything useful in the book of shadows." I said standing up, the tension in the room to obvious. It was to quiet anyway for my liking. I cried in the attic when it was quiet, I couldn't afford to cry now out in the open, with them here. I grieved and mourned alone, I preferred it that way. I knew grandpa had my side, so he wasn't to happy with, Leo, my dad either. "Christopher take a seat, there is something I need to discuss with you." I turned and raised my eyebrows. Never hearing him say my full first name before when we weren't yelling at each other. I sat back down, now some-what interested in what he had to say. "The elders just informed me that Melinda Warren, the creator of the Warren and Halliwell lines, had two daughters." I frowned now confused, how was that possible, she had only had one right? I noticed that Leo didn't look to surprised at all.

"And why is that important?" I asked getting irritated with all of his riddles, and the empty silence, the heavy tension. I wished he would just tell me. Did he already know of all of this? Probably, my subconscious voiced.

"It's important because it means that you are not the only charmed one left." He said and Victor sighed putting his head in his hands. He was probably just as confused and frustrated as I was. Wonderful just what I needed. Another piece of family that I could lose, just because of who I was.

"Don't you have to be siblings to be the charmed one's?" Asked Victor. Looking at me and then Leo. I just shrugged not knowing the answer to that question, and apparently any answer. I was losing my touch, thanks to stress and exhaustion.

He was on to something. I mean it's not like I had a sister out there, because that would be cool, like really really cool. Even though I didn't want to admit it I wanted another sibling, even though deep down I knew it just wouldn't happen. I shook that thought out of my head. No way was that possible anyway, I needed to stop giving my self false hope. I was just going to have to live with the fact, that I was going to be alone. Without a sibling, it wasn't like I had any friends. That I wasn't going to have back-up, or have someone to talk to about girls or guys. Wyatt had been understanding and very supportive when I had told him that I was bisexual. I remember being so relieved. That was something I could never tell my dad, because I never knew how he was going to react. Victor knew to but he wasn't upset, he wasn't to happy about it. But he said he would love me anyway, no matter who I was, and who I was with. Be it women or man. It didn't matter to me, as long as I found some one out there to love me for who I was, then I would be happy. I just doubted that it would ever happen, considering the past, and the present.

"Yes or you have to be related by blood, at least technically, that's what they said. It's complicated and it's really difficult to explain-" Started out Leo but I interrupted him. "So you're telling me I have a cousin out there some where, that Wyatt had a cousin. And you waited all this time to tell me." My dad was now expressionless, he did this before he would go all red in the face and get angry, and start yelling. We'd had enough fights for me to be able to tell the signs. But he took a deep breath and continued.

"She is more than your cousin, technically she is your sister, by blood. Yes I didn't tell you because I didn't know how you were going to react, and besides this isn't the easiest thing to talk about for me either." Leo said and Victor finally looked up from his hands, curiosity breaking through the features of his face, over taking the confusion and frustration. "Wait so your telling me that I've got another grandchild somewhere in the world, who has never met her grandpa. I thought you loved Piper, and only Piper." He said.

"No no no. Now will the two of you please wait patiently and let me try to explain this. I don't wont any more out-burst, I have to leave soon, so I don't have much time." He said his voice raised slightly louder than normal, he was getting angry again. It wouldn't be long before the yelling started.

I slumped back into my chair, of course he was leaving. Why wouldn't he stay. At least I had my grandpa, not for long though said my subconscious. Painfully reminding of me, of the months to come.

"As the both of you know Piper died before she had Chris. What I had told you both was that I saved you, but that was something I made up." I looked at Victor and then at my dad, "Excuse me?" I asked he had lied to me, why was I even surprised. He sighed clearing his throat as he continued to talk "You were still in her stomach, and she was only one month pregnant. A woman had came by the house earlier, by the name of Madeline.She had claimed that she was cousins with your mother and her sisters. Of course they dismissed her as crazy and disillusion but what they didn't know was that she was telling the truth. She even had the documentation from her family tree to prove it, but they just shut the door in her face. When Piper was killed at the house, I was to late. Her sisters couldn't save her, so they died to. But Madeline was there. She claimed to have a premonition, a vision, that she was going to have a baby. But it wasn't her's it was me and Piper's. Madeline was like a segregate mother of sorts. She had dropped everything to come here, and have this baby. Of course when you were born you were healthy. But you didn't have just my blood inside of you. You had your mother's blood and Madeline's. And to answer your question (he said turning and looking at Victor) yes there was a time when I had feelings for Madeline. But she was in love with someone else."

I felt like I was frozen to my seat, because I couldn't move. My mother's cousin carried me for eight months and her blood was inside of me. My dad had feelings for someone else other than my mom? I really needed to meet this woman. "Why is that such a big deal?" I asked trying to recover from my shock. And Victor nodded at my question probably thinking like I was.

"Because Madeline wasn't just a first born Halliwell witch, but she was also a werewolf. A hybrid of sorts, I guess you could call it. Madeline a little later in her life had a daughter." Leo said studying me with cautious eyes. I closed my eyes pinching the bridge of my nose. To tired to lash out angrily or even yell at him at this point in time. "Why do I need to know that?" I asked and Victor looked at me sympathetically. Uhhhh I was so sick and tired of everyone looking at me sympathetically like they pitied me. Well I couldn't blame them really, I even pitied my self sometimes.

"Because Madeline's daughter is your sister by blood. You both share her mother's blood, which means that you also share some of her DNA as well as me and your mother's." Leo said his hands on the table. He usually did that when he was trying to explain something. I could see that he had a more relaxed expression on his face, and in his body language. He was no longer tense and neither was I for once. I forgot the grudge that I had against him,just for a little while.

He had been lucky that he caught me tired. I think that's why he waited this long to tell me. "So this girl, who ever she is, she wasn't blood related to Wyatt right, like me?" I asked trying to rub the tiredness from my eyes. It just wasn't working like it used to. And I had no more Starbucks left, and all the donuts were gone. I had eaten them because I had been so hungry, they had smelled good to, all cinnamon-y and sweet. I guess I was going to have to get a few hours of sleep before going back up into the attic.

"Yes in some ways, because you and Wyatt were so connected, she would have been your sister, both of yours." Leo said a wistful expression on his face.For once I would have mirrored him. I found myself wanting to go find this girl, my sister. I knew that Wyatt would want me to find her, and at least have one conversation with her. I had to, for the both of us.

"There would have been three, the power of three." Victor said to mostly Leo, mainly because I was busy spaced out in my own world. "Would have been," Dad said his lip wobbling slightly. I closed my eyes, and just thought don't cry, don't cry over and over again. I couldn't afford to be weak right now, not in front of everyone. "So because I share some of Madeline's blood does that mean that I have some werewolf in me?" I asked trying to change the subject. Leo apparently noticed because he looked grateful, almost. Victor leaned forward in his chair, his hands on the table looking interested in the conversation.

"Yes, you have some werewolf in you. You won't be able to transform intoa full werewolf though. But you do have some of the good and bad qualities of one. A good quality for example is a little more strength than a normal human being has, and you heal faster to. I have noticed this. However some of the bad qualities for example would be the un-controllable anger (which I have witnessed myself, he added causing me to role my eyes, and Victor to laugh a little) and depression when you don't go outside." Leo said and Victor shook his head smirking, drinking more coffee. Hmm I guess that would explain why I felt better outside the house then I did inside the house. "I thought werewolves weren't real, that there were only wendigo's." Victor said now smoking a cigar.

Leo sighed putting his head in his hands. "Well apparently they both exists, let's just hope that there aren't any Edward Cullen's running around." I said causing Victor to laugh. "You and me both kiddo."

I didn't laugh this time however. Because I was looking at my dad. How slumped over on the table he was. Maybe I had been to hard on him, these past few weeks. Before I could stop myself I stood up and walked over to where he was sitting and gave him a hug. After a while he looked up at me a small smile on his face before pulling me into a full hug. One where we were both standing up. Our arms wrapped around each other, holding each other together. After a few seconds because that was all I could take, I walked back to my seat. "Don't you have some where to go?" I asked referring to when he said he couldn't stay long, and that he had to leave. I didn't feel angry, at least not right now.

"I can stay longer if you want." Dad said and I looked at Victor who was watching the two of us carefully out of the corner of his eye. Trying to be inconspicuous about it. "Well I have more questions, and I think you can answer them." I said and dad nodded looking grateful. I noticed that Victor now seemed very relaxed, most likely because the room wasn't as tense as it had been before.

"Where is Melinda now? Do you have a picture of her?" I asked and Leo, Dad nodded. Before standing up from the table. "Can we take this up to the attic?" He asked and I nodded standing up from my seat to, as did Victor.

Victor was following closely behind us. We made it to the attic in no time. Leo, Dad walked over to an old dusty book case, that looked older compared to all the others in the room. He pulled out a large book that looked like it help mostly pictures instead of words. My kind of book.

He took the large book over to a table that happened to be next to an old couch. The one with all the big flowers and the dark green leaves and thorns. The three of us sat down, Leo, Dad in the middle of me and Victor, the book in his hands. He opened it up talking as he did.

"Madeline was a very good friend of mine. We grew close because of you, and her family history. She knew very little and she wanted to know more about her powers, because she hadn't been like the other witches of the city she was from. The French Quarter, New Orleans. So I showed her the book of shadows, and told her all I knew about the Halliwell and the Warren line of witches. She had told me that her parents died when she was very young because of who and what they were, so she was raised by a close family friend, who had just recently passed. She had no one else to ask but me. Apparently where she was from the other witches didn't know about the Halliwell or the Warren witch line. Madeline couldn't really ask around everywhere, you couldn't really trust anyone back then, and now."

He said his voice growing softer, sounding like it belonged with the pages of a children's book and not this old dusty photo album. He turned the first page, it was blank. Then he turned the second it was filled with pictures of my mom, and my aunts, and a very cute baby Wyatt. That's what it was filled with, until the middle of the book.

"There she is," Leo said pointing to a particular photograph on the page he had just turned. I looked down to see where he was pointing at and so did Victor. He seemed just as interested as I did in this woman named Madeline, my segregate mother.

The woman Madeline was standing with my father. She had an arm thrown on his shoulder, smiling. She looked a lot more different than my mother and her sisters but she looked like she belonged. She had dark skin almost like chocolate but not as dark. It was hard to explain, her skin just looked so soft and smooth. She was wearing a flowery lose dress, and some plain brown sandals. That simple outfit made her look like a run way model. She was so pretty. Her long dark curly brown hair was pulled back into a pony tail, although it still looked soft and silky. She had dark brown eyes to making her look warm. She had a bright smile that could light up a dark room. I wanted to meet her, I wanted to meet her daughter, my sister. I felt this sense of longing, in my heart for both Madeline and her daughter.

"I thought werewolve's were supposed to be ugly." Victor said closely examining the picture with his glasses he had just gotten out.

"What happened to her?" I asked and Leo sighed turning the page to reveal another set of photo's this time it was just Madeline, and Madeline alone. In one of them she was holding Wyatt, standing next to a Christmas tree, I noticed that her stomach was poking out a bit now. In another she was baking cookies. Then Leo, Dad, turned the next page. To reveal Madeline, she was in a hospital, looking like she was about to explode. Her long thick curly hair was thrown up in a messy bun. She was wearing a white hospital gown, the one where there was little blue dots on it. She had dark bags under her eye's, most likely because she wasn't sleeping very well at night due to me kicking her in her ribs. Wyatt was standing by her bed side, his tiny chubby hand on the railing, the other one was holding her finger.

I noticed now that he was tearing up Dad was, and me being impatient I sighed wanting to see more. Victor turned the next page, since Dad was spaced out again.

"I remember her water broke when she was doing some work around the house. Luckily I had been there, so I took her to the hospital. I think I lost a little bit of hearing that day, because of all the yelling she was doing at me." Dad said causing Victor to laugh a little. "Yeah they do that a lot." I smiled thinking about if I would ever have to deal with that. I wanted to.

The next set of photo's revealed me, in her arms at the hospital, wrapped up in one of those thick white hospital blankets. She was looking down at me with the biggest smile on her face, her face flushed and sweaty. This was probably taken after she had me. Then me in her arms again at the house wrapped in a blue blanket. Then the attic this time in a green blanket with little cars on it. Then I was outside, not in a blanket but this time in a stroller bundled up heavily in a blue fuzzy hat, a black jacket, and a pair of boots. Madeline was kneeling beside me. Wearing a blue hat like me. Her hair in two braids. Wearing what looked like a parka of some kind, it was black to. She was wearing jeans, and what looked like a pair of boots. It took me a minute to realize that me and Madeline were matching. And judging by the snow outside it was around winter time judging by the snow in the trees and on the ground. I smiled looking at Dad and Victor who both had smiles on there faces like me. Then I was in Dad's arms this time in causal clothes better suited for warmer weather. I had to be at least two maybe a little younger. Wyatt was in Madeline's arms, wearing what I was, just in a bigger size. I noticed that Dad and Madeline where dressed for what looked like something water related. They were probably on there way to a pool party or something like that.

"Why didn't she just come up here with her daughter, and then everything would be solved." I said and Dad looked up closing the book and putting it on the table. He stood up and walked to where the book of shadows was, and picked it up, bringing it to the table. Then sitting back on the couch, still between Victor and me. "Madeline was murdered, years ago." He said his voice shaky. He then raised his hands over the book of shadows, his hands glowing, the pages of the book turning pages, and pages and then finally stopping. I looked down to see where it had stopped. It was an index page. But it wasn't my mother's handwriting, my aunts', or even grams'.

"Is this Madeline's handwriting?" I asked and Leo nodded. "She had lovely writing." Victor said touching the pages of the book. I noticed that one of the chapters said witch types and covens. I flipped to the page number and was immediately confused. What was a Gemini coven, and what in the hell was a spyhinor witch. There were other types of witches?

Leo took the book from me and closed it. I looked up at him confused his eye's were watery, he looked close to crying more now than ever. "How did she get murdered?" I asked tentatively and Victor gave me a warning glance before, I asked but I decided to be direct and forward about it.

"After she had you, she stayed for a year and a few months. Helping me vanquish and take down demons. Writing in the book and then out of no where she had to go. She had gotten a call from back home, she said it was a friend, that it was urgent. She would come back every few month's, spend time with you and Wyatt, but she would never stay to long. She told me that she was spying for a vampire, that she was pretending to be apart of some witch coven. Then she came back one month telling me that she had messed up bad. That she was pregnant, and the father was an alpha of this rare werewolf pack. Compared to all of the other wold packs around the world she told me that this one was very special and different from the other. And that they were the only one's of there kind left. She also said that he already had a child, a girl three month's old named Andrea Labonair. He also had a fiancee, who happened to be her best friend. She said that it would be a while before she saw me again. But she promised to write and call. And that was the last time I ever saw her."

It was quiet for a moment, and I let what he said sink in. Madeline was dead, but he still hadn't said how, or did he know and not want to say anything? Why did everyone I knew or that was tied to me either by blood or by friendship have to die?

"How did you find out?" I asked ignoring yet another one of Victor's warning glances. Dad sighed and ran his hands threw his short brown hair. "It had been month's since she had wrote to me, or gave me a call. Then I remember having a dream about her. She told me that she was stupid. That she had ran into some trouble that she couldn't get out of. She told me that the witches the coven that she had been spying for the vampire killed her. Luckily she had given her baby girl to her father and her best friend to watch over her. They had been killed after a year. Leaving Andrea and Luna separated. That her daughter, Luna had been taken by the witches." Dad said and I patted him on the back, along with Victor. Comforting him.

After a while of comforting I stopped. Wanting more answers, wanting the truth and only the truth.

"Why didn't you go save Luna from the witches?" I asked testing her name on my tongue and Victor nodded at me. The name was beautiful, suiting her perfectly, she was so unique. A name like that was perfect for her. "You know, that is a good question." He said turning to Leo, Dad.

Leo sighed putting his head in his hands. "I couldn't just leave because I had you and Wyatt. And I wasn't allowed to." And I frowned my heart beat speeding up, it often did that when I was get angry. A perk of having werewolf blood in my system. "What do you mean you weren't allowed to?" I asked threw gritted teeth. "Easy there son," Victor said but I ignored him, my palms getting sweaty. I needed to hit something. Or throw something across the room with my powers. That usually seemed to help, or even hit a punching bag.

"It wasn't my place and it's part of her destiny-" He began but I hopped up off the couch, angrily.

"Whoa whoa whoa so you are telling me. That you wouldn't save your friends daughter, my sister," I said pointing to myself. "Wyatt's sister all because of the elder's bullshit ancient rules." I said my whole body quivering, in anger. I really needed to get this anger thing under control.

"Chris it's not like that-" Leo began but he was interrupted. Not by me or Victor but the sound of glass breaking. "What the hell was that?" Victor asked standing up along with Leo.

I sighed running my hands threw my hair. I opened my mouth to speak but Leo, Dad, but Victor held his finger against his mouth, quieting me.

I tilted my head to the side, trying to hear something anything but it was quiet. I had werewolf blood in me, how come Victor, my grandfather have better hearing than me?

The door was thrown open with a hard enough force to throw my dad back. He had been walking up on it, slowly and as stealthy as possible. I rushed to him and so did Victor, worried about his well being.

I didn't realize my mistake, I hadn't even looked back at the door.

I found myself weightless as I flew threw the air. I yelled out when I hit some boxes luckily they had been cardboard and not wooden.

I got up and ran to my grandfather, Victor who was laying on the floor, unconscious. I checked his body looking for any gashes, cuts, or bumps. I also looked for blood, but there was none thank goodness. He was still breathing and that was a good sign.

Dad was now up and fighting with what looked like a vampire judging by the fangs in his mouth. He had dark hair, black eyes, and tan skin. He defiantly looked the part. At least that was my best guess about what he was. I ran over and raised my hand effectively throwing him into the wall. "What the hell was that?" Asked Dad as I helped him up. I turned around relieved to see the vampire still there, struggling to get up. Looking annoyed.

"It was a vampire." I said and Dad, Leo, turned and looked at the wall, where the vampire was.

"Okay but that doesn't tell me how to kill it?" He said now turning to me his hands on his hips. I rolled my eyes, was he serious. Staking a vampire threw the heart was like the most obvious thing to do. I mean he wasn't like the vampires in twilight or at least I hoped not.

"Just take Victor downstairs don't worry, I'll handle it." Dad shook his head at me and frowning. "What are you crazy? There is no way I'm leaving you here alone, not after what happened to Wyatt."

I rolled my eyes at his statement, "Look I've got this just take grandpa downstairs, I can handle my own. So stop worrying about me okay, I'm not going to die okay, I'm not Wyatt."

Dad frowned at me before walking up to Victor, grabbing him by the shoulders, giving me one last look and then orbing out with Victor in his grasp.

I went to the cabinet and went through the drawers. I pulled out a wooden stake and turned around noticing that the vampire was not by the wall anymore, he was gone.

I yelled out feeling a sharp pain in the back of my head. Someone or something had hit me in the back of my head. I fell to the ground, my legs not being able to hold my weight anymore. I fell on my face, my cheek if I was being specific. Surely that was going to bruise only adding to my list of problems. I reached back and touched the back of my head it felt wet. I pulled my hand back and looked down at it to see it was red, blood red. I was bleeding, but it wasn't enough to kill me. Who ever or what ever hit me in the back of the head didn't want to kill me at least not yet, they must have meant to render me unconscious. Luckily I was awake, wide awake at that. When ever demon's or stalkers would try to knock me out, they couldn't. I guess I was just hard to knock out. And in situations like these that wasn't exactly a bad thing. I tried to clear my head and ignore the pain. Trying to gather in my mind what happened, and any specific smells or things that I saw. If I remembered a certain something I would be able to help find the perpetrator later, since I couldn't act now.

Although I was conscious everything was still ringing and blurry and that made things difficult. Hearing the buzz of voices I looked up slowly to avoid injuring my head even more and to avoid being seen awake. I looked up after a few moment not only to see the vampire who originally attacked me but also a women. Although it was difficult to see I could make out that she had fair skin. Wavy blonde hair and that was all I could make out before I felt something heavy on my head, forcing me to look at the ground. Most likely a shoe.

"Wait, don't kill him at least not yet. Something tells me that he might be useful, spare the boy." A female voice said, using a commanding tone. She sounded like she did this often. The other voice most likely belonging to the vampire who attacked us sighed, sounding almost disappointed.

"Why we don't have what you promised me. I don't have Luna, I have not tasted her blood, it's been so long, to long. Don't you understand it's driving me insane. I need her blood. The witches of New Orleans lied to me. They said that she would be able to conceive, but they lied. Now that she is older maybe it will be possible, she already defies everything we know. I have great plans for her. Beside's you promised me that I would be able to kill anyone I wanted, witch." The vampire said angrily but the women sighed. I noticed that the vampire had a very smooth voice that was slightly accented but I didn't know what. He spoke his words in anger but his voice was so formal. I looked up and squinted, the weight on my head gone allowing me to look up again. From what I could see the man was wearing what looked like a suit, a very expensive suit, it was a dark blue. It clashed well with his dark hair and his dark glittering eyes. He looked like he didn't belong in San Francisco but on the pages of some children's fairy-tale book, but he wasn't the hero or the protagonist he was the bad guy, the antagonist, the villain.

"Yes I remember that conversation, there is no need for you to remind me. And Abbraxas you will get what you want in time. But we have what we came for, and there is no reason for us to stay and linger, and cause more trouble than we need to." The woman said and the vampire, Abbraxas growled. Hmmm the name Abbraxas sounded awfully familiar. Maybe I saw it in the book of shadow's once or twice.

"Can I at least knock him out." He asked and the woman sighed. "Alright just don't hit him to hard or the deal is off and I will kill you myself."

Before I could comprehend what was going to happen I was struck across the head again this time harder than the first time.

But this time nothing was blurry or disorientated, it was just darkness that was until I saw a familiar head filled with long locks of blonde hair.

"Wyatt?" I asked going out on a whim, there was a strong possibility that could have been him. I had been hit over the head at least twice. I was just hallucinating, could you hallucinate in dreams?

The figure with the locks of thick blonde hair turned, revealing exactly who I thought it would be, my older brother. He opened his arms and I went into them. He was the same height, and he even smelled the same. But he had this positive glow around him.

"Is this even real?" I asked and Wyatt pulled away from me. A smile on his face, "Of course this is real, a demon wouldn't be able to pull you into this place, it's one of the only things we share that no one besides us really knows about." Wyatt said gesturing around him. Instead of the blackness we were now inside what looked like our favorite restaurant. It was a small cheep Chinese place, next to an alley. Sometimes when Wyatt was to tired to cook, or when he just didn't want to we would always go here. One of my ex-boyfriends had showed me this place. And I couldn't stay away from it ever since.

"How are dad and grandpa?" He asked we were eating now. Some how and I was surprised that I could taste it. This was some dream state after all. Sweet and sour chicken on a clean bed of rice. "As well as to be expected they miss you, I miss you. What did you think we would be throwing parties, dancing around the house." I said earning a slight glare for him. But I shrugged my shoulders taking a long drink from my Dr. Pepper.

"Why do you have to be so sarcastic?" Wyatt asked me and I frowned folding my arms over my chest. Preparing to defend myself. "Why do you have to be dead?" I asked retorting back, and Wyatt shook his head at me, looking disappointed. Looking a lot like dad in this moment in time. "Kalya say's hi and sends her love," Wyatt said and I nodded. "Well when this is over tell her the same, and that I miss her." Wyatt nodded now pleased.

It was silent for a while the only sounds were our forks clattering against the plates and the wind blowing outside.

"Chris you know that's not fair to say things like that, I made a mistake and now I'm paying for it." He said and I sighed running my hands threw my hair. Who knew a dream could be so stressful.

"Did you know about her?" I asked referring to my sister, well our sister.

Wyatt shook his head a look of sadness passing over his face. "No I did not know anything about Luna. I didn't even know that she existed. Although I can recall some brief memories of Madeline. Every time she would come over she would make our favorite cookies. I remember she used to tuck the both of us in bed at night, reading or telling us stories, tucking us into bed and kissing us on the foreheads before leaving." He said and I nodded. Just now remembering a brief moment in the past when she handed me a cookie, a smile on her face.

"Do you watch over her?" I asked and Wyatt looked up at me. Taking a drink of his pepsi before breaking the silence. "Sometime's but it's just to painful because I can't be there for her, I mean there really isn't anything I can do besides sit back and watch. And she is always getting hurt and in trouble, like us." He said and I nodded understanding what he meant.

I wanted to tell him about Abbraxas and what he had said. I just didn't know how. I felt sick just thinking about what he had said about Luna, my sister. Luna and conceive didn't belong in the same sentence at least they didn't in my opinion.

When do I have to go back?" I asked dreading his answer. Wyatt frowned his forehead creasing, maybe he didn't want me to leave either. "Actually now, but there is a few things I have to tell you first before you go." I nodded now completely focused on what he was going to say. The Chinese food and soda lay forgotten on the table.

"You need to be there for her. Help her with whatever you can, even if it's stupid, even if it's the simplest of things. Take her to our home, show her our family and our history, our past. Just remember this isn't going to be the easiest thing in the world to do. To get to her you are going to have to go through a lot of people. But you can't hurt them or kill them because then you won't have any chance at all. She is going to be going through some hard times, and I think she could really use some family right now. Things in her life right now are complicated and you coming into her life is going to make it even more so. And since I can't be there for her you have to. Just remember don't push to much, or you'll be shut out, forever."

"Why do I have to be so cautious?" I asked wanting to know the reason. "Chris I can't tell you everything. Just know that she has walls around her heart for a good reason. She's been through so much, she is fragile. Basically treat her like she is a piece of glass." Wyatt said and I nodded feeling more worried and nervous than ever to meet her.

"But what if she doesn't like me?" I asked we were now walking outside of the restaurant. Wyatt was now smiling "I'm sure in time she will come to like you." He said turning to me.

He laughed probably at the expression on my face. Time could be forever, maybe longer. "What about you?" I asked turning to face him. The smile dropped from his face.

"I've been watching over her as a favor from Madeline, she came to see me. There isn't much I can do, but you can do more than me. You can be there for her. Help and support her ideas. Protect her from those who wish to harm her. Kick every guys' ass who hurts her, because I can't. But you can, you can be her brother, for the both of us."

I nodded and hugged Wyatt again. I wasn't much of a huger but I was when it came to my brother and my grandpa, occasionally my dad, and hopefully Luna some time in the near future. I knew it was going to take a while for her to accept me, I just hoped it wasn't forever because I wanted to be a better brother to her than I was to Wyatt. I couldn't let her down, like I let him down.

"Promise me you will do what ever you can to keep her safe, protect her. Promise me that you won't let anyone hurt her. She has a big role to play in the world's future."

I frowned pulling away, that couldn't be good. "I promise," I said and Wyatt nodded. All that weight on her already fragile shoulders, it wouldn't be long before she cracked under the pressure literally.

"Isn't that a little to much pressure on a-' I paused not knowing the age of Luna. "Twenty one year old girl." I said and Wyatt shook his head. "Nice try little bro but Luna is 17, her ageing works differently than ours, I don't even think I fully understand it myself. Just understand that she age's slower. And like all teenagers she is naive. I need you to be there, to look out for her. Offer your guidance and support. Be a good older brother." Wyatt said.

"What if she doesn't accept me?" I asked running my hands threw my hair, something I did when I was nervous. "She will in time, she has to. Why would she deny the one of the only blood related family she has left? Luna has a small circle of people that she relies on and trusts on. Try little things first. Like send her pictures of her mother, small things like that. Maybe then she would be more open to you. But you can't just barge in un-announced. Your heart would be ripped out of your chest before you even got a chance to say her name." Wyatt said and I shook my head. Feeling more confused than ever.

"Ohh thanks for the warning." I said now slightly annoyed. He nodded although he was frowning apparently picking up on my annoyance. He was good at things like that, like dad.

"I take it that she is very well-protected?" I asked and Wyatt nodded and I opened my mouth to say something but he put his hand over my mouth. Effectively stopping me from saying anything.

"Yes she may be under very well protection but she still needs her brother. I wouldn't ask you of this, but I can't do this, you can. She needs you. Don't you want to get to know your sister?" Wyatt said and I found myself nodding.

Wyatt turned hearing something. "It's time little brother, and remember what I said take things slow. There isn't the power of three anymore but there is the power of two. And by the power of two I mean you and Luna." Wyatt said referring to that one time when we had went into another dimension or replica of this world and got another 'me.' We were the power of three. I remember it feeling good, it felt nice to be so powerful and feared by demons everywhere. But that other 'me' died killed by one of the Source's most high powered demons.

I nodded at what he said. So he could see that I had understood him. I sighed pulling him into another hug. "I miss you Wyatt," I said into his chest.

He patted me on the back. "Yeah I miss you to little bro, I love you." I looked up at him not bothering to hold my tears back anymore. "I love you to." I could cry here, because technically I wouldn't be crying in the real world.

As soon as I said it, I found myself back in my body, my actual body.

The body that had been knocked out. Which would explain the throbbing pain inside of my skull, and the dried blood in my hair and hands. "Oh thank god. Leo!!! He's awake!!!" Shouted a voice. I looked up and saw my grandfather, Victor standing over me a worried look on his face. I heard the familiar twinkling sound of my dad orbing in. And for once I was relieved to hear that sound. Maybe he could heal me, and make the throbbing in my head to stop.

I could hear my dad and my grandfather talking. But I didn't pay much attention to what was said. Due to the painful throbbing of my head and all. I layed my forehead against the cool wooden floor. It seemed to ease the pain and the throbbing, but not enough to think about what they were saying. I felt hands on my back, and I sighed feeling almost instant relief.

I felt this warm feeling inside of me. Filling me up on the inside. I wanted to laugh and cry all at the same time. Then it stopped, my back was now to the floor instead of my head.

Arms reached for me and pulled me up. I was now standing. I still felt a little dizzy, but the pounding in my head was gone.

"Where is it? Chris where is the book?" Asked an authoritative voice that could have only been my father. Victor never used an authoritative tone with me, not ever. I closed my eyes remembering the events of last night.

"Someone took the book. A woman I think, she was with the vampire. The vampire said he had plans for Luna." I said now pacing the room. Feeling more frustrated than ever.

"Plans for Luna?" Victor asked folding his arms over his chest looking concerned. I nodded and Leo frowned. "Yeah, I don't know what they are but I don't think he plans on giving her flowers." I said and Leo, Dad, nodded.

"Well I am going to go speak with the elders, see if they can tell me anything about the woman who stole the book of shadows." Then he turned to me. "And you figure out a way to get Luna to trust you, and don't go to strong." I nodded his words reminding me of what Wyatt had said.

And then he was gone, fading away in a trail of orbs.

"I think you should send her some money." I looked away from the ceiling and back at my grandpa. "You want me to send Luna, money?" I asked and Victor shrugged taking me by the shoulder's leading me out of the attic, and into the downstairs kitchen.

"I think that would be the best thing to start off with. I've been around long enough to know people. And people like money. Luckily for us Luna is a girl, a teenage girl at that. So she has to have a thing for shopping." Victor said gathering some eggs and cheese, was he making breakfast?

"Well if you think that's what I should do I'll do it. Money isn't the problem, since we are rich but isn't that a little much?" I asked and Victor sighed now putting some bread in the toaster.

"You can send any flowers or roses because that would send the wrong message. It's to soon to send a picture of her mother, Madeline yet." I nodded smiling a little smelling the scrambled eggs, and the buttered toast.

"Should I leave a note?" I asked and Victor nodded pouring some orange juice into two seperate glasses. "Yeah just don't make it to personalized, and don't put your name on it or anything.

I nodded going up the stairs into my room. I grabbed one of the many duffel bags in my room and started filling it with money. True most of the money was in the bank, well banks since one couldn't hold all of our money. I kept my emergency supply here.

I took the now heavy duffel bag downstairs and I set it on the floor next to my chair.

I thanked my grandfather for making me breakfast. And we ate in silence for a few moments.

"How are you going to deliver it?" He asked and I shrugged. Taking a quick sip of my orange juice, before replying. "I didn't think about that part."

Victor nodded smiling slightly.

"I'll do it," a voice said and I looked up surprised to see Leo, Dad there in the kitchen. "Dad I thought you were up there." I said gesturing towards the ceiling.

"I was but since they refused to tell me anything about the person who stole the book of shadows, and her accomplice the vampire." Dad said his arms folded tightly against his chest.

"Won't anyone recognize you?" Victor asked handing a third plate of food (freshly made) to Dad. "Yeah dad, I don't think it's a great idea." I said agreeing with Victor.

But dad already had the duffel bag in his hands. "Chris do you think you could do a glamour spell on me, to make it look like I'm some kind of mail carrier?" Dad asked and I nodded. My first instinct was to go up the stairs, and into the attic, to look in the book. Then I remembered that the book was gone. Stolen by some blonde haired old speaking women and her vampire accomplice that knocked me out, and had plans for my sister, Luna. I stood up from my seat and I put my clean plate in the sink.

I then went into the second kitchen in the house. The one used only for brewing potions and such. I went to the cabinet that held cloaking potions, invisibility potions, mostly things that make you disappear. But I knew we had at least three more vials of glamour potion.

I grabbed one of the three vials and I took it into the other kitchen. The one with my dad, Leo and my grandfather Victor.

I uncorked the bottle, "Okay Dad this is going to be easy. Just think about what you want to be." I said and Leo nodded his eyes closed. "I'm ready," He said after a while and I nodded.

I threw the clear contents from the vial onto him. But instead of splotching his shirt, it turned everything a green color. frowned realizing what this was. "Dad why are you in a military uniform?" I asked and my Dad opened his eyes and shrugged. "It's fine, besides I think I'll be able to pull this off better anyway."

He said turning to Victor, who handed him the duffel bag. "How are you going to find her?" I asked and Victor looked at Leo, wondering like I was. He hadn't asked me to scry.

"The same way I used to go visit her mother, I'll follow my gut." He said and then he fixed his military hat and then he disappeared into orbs of light. To wherever my long lost sister Luna was.

Damon pov

...

I sighed frustrated with Klaus and Luna. Why were they being so stupid and clueless? (They knew, they knew people were looking for them. Yet they still chose to go out. I'm never leaving her alone with Klaus again, or any man besides myself, Elijah, and Kol). And why would Klaus say that in front of Luna? 'That he looked to tear clothes off' ( What did him saying that mean? What was Luna thinking about when she heard that?) Sure at first I thought they were cute. But after spending all those months away we had bonded. I felt like she was my adoptive daughter. And I didn't want her going out with any guy. If it had been anyone else besides Klaus they would have been already layed out skinned and gutted on the floor. But it was Klaus, and I wasn't going to do that to him, not that I would be able to anyway. Luna would murder me herself. I shuddered not wanting to 'adoptive father' any more. It wasn't that I didn't love Luna, because I did. I just couldn't take the stress from it anymore. It was to hard being a dad, or a father figure. And I had even more pressure on me and myself because Luna had never had a 'dad' before. Her biological father was dead, and gone long ago. Leaving Luna abandoned, alone, motherless and fatherless, for the witches to take. If my hair could turn gray it would have already. I kicked a bale of hay into the wall of the barn, angry. I didn't think I just acted. I felt like I needed to hit something so I did. I had to admit, I felt a little better than I had before.

I felt like I had failed as a father by not watching her closely enough. I felt like I had not only let her down, but also myself. And that was not the best feeling in the world, believe me. I know I couldn't control Luna, and I sure as hell couldn't control Klaus. But sometimes I wish I could, at times like these. Not because I was a control freak but just because I wanted to keep them safe. It didn't help that they weren't listening to anything I was saying. They were both going to get themselves either killed or seriously injured before Christmas day if they kept this up. Not by the people hunting us down, but by me. To keep them from getting killed/tortured, hurting themselves, and hurting each other. I had thought about getting some hand-cuffs and hand-cuffing them together, to a tree or something along those lines. So they were still together but they couldn't leave, get hurt, or give me a heart attack because they sneaked out and/or were late. I had proposed the idea Kol, Cami, and Josh but they all gave me this weird look. Their eye brows raised, like they had been confused or something. I remember Cami saying "Honey, I know you are trying to watch out for them and protect them but isn't that just a little extreme." Then I remember Kol piping in and saying with that devilish smirk on his face "Yeah that's just a tad bit kinky." (I didn't see it as kinky, I saw it as protecting her).

Okay maybe I was being a little extreme but I was very over protective of Luna, and her heart. I also cared for close I mean we were 'brothers' I had taken an oath. I knew I couldn't go back on it, and I don't think I would ever want to. But I was Luna's father first and for most. As a brother I would have encouraged that behavior around her, I would have encouraged him to flirt with her more. But this time wasn't the case at all. As her adoptive father/father figure I didn't feel comfortable even thinking about them like that, much less encouraging it. I saw her as a young naive 17 year old teenage girl, but she was my girl, mine. I think Klaus tended to forget that, maybe I would have to remind him of that fact later.

I didn't want Luna to hurt at all. I knew fighting with Klaus would make her mad at me, but as a father what was I supposed to do? My hands were tied really. I was going to have to pull him aside and have a talk with him later. If I could keep her from hurting then that was a day well spent. But it was either Klaus being angry at me, or Luna being sad.

I kicked yet another bale of hay out of anger. I didn't even look to see where it had went. To wrapped up inside of my head.

"Hey what's going on in here?" Asked a voice and I turned around seeing Ansel walking towards me, a confused expression on his face. A coat wrapped around his broad shoulders. "Oh nothing much just taking my anger out on the hay bales." I said kicking another one, I really didn't want to interact with anyone right now. Ansel shook his head looking disappointed. Great the last thing I needed was someone else being disappointed in me. "What did that hay bale do to you? If you mind me asking?" He said and I said nothing at first and I kicked another one.

"Nothing I'm just really upset right now." I said now pacing the floor of the barn. "Would you like to talk about it?" Ansel asked looking sincere. I must have not heard him because I continued to walk around in circles.

"I mean I just don't understand it." I said looking up at Ansel. "Was Klaus always this damn rebellious? And why are the two of them so stubborn?" I asked looking up at Ansel.

He looked down at his feet. A clear sign that he was un-comfortable. "No, Damon I told you I was forced to stay away from him his whole childhood, due to Ester and Mikel. But I am sure he was rebellious even back them, I am his father. When I was his age that is how I acted. I wasn't abused like Niklaus was though, and that might be something you need to look in to. Referring to the 'two of them' I'm sure you mean Klaus and Luna right. Well I don't no much about that situation but I can say that he just want's to make her happy. And as for Luna, she is a level-headed teenage girl, she wants to live a little. Just be thankful she isn't one of the dumb ones."

I scrunched up my nose not only confused but trying not to laugh at that last thing he had said. I pinched the bridge of my nose between my two fingers. "But I don't understand why?"

Ansel sighed clearly thinking "If you haven't noticed those two have a lot in common. They both had no child hood, they were both abused, treated like live stock really, it's disgusting. And you remember last night, what Luna did to her self. He is going to have to tell her that today, and that in it self is stressful. It isn't going to be easy for him. In fact I'll be surprised if he even tells her at all. Not to mention today we have all these plans that could go wrong in minutes. Because of the people looking for us, that's a whole other thing that you have to worry separately about. Not to mention the horrible driving that other people do when it's time to shop for loved one's during the Christmas season. Rebekah told me that there was a lot of holiday traffic, what ever that means. But the point is I think last night he was trying to make her have a good time. Help her relax, let loose, have fun. And you can't help if your attracted to someone."

"Not if I can help it." I muttered under my breath. But by the look on Ansel's face it was clear that he had heard me. He frowned up shaking his head at me. "How would you feel if someone tried to take you away from Cami." I scoffed. "First of all that would never happen, and second of all Luna and Klaus are not in love. There is a slim, very slim chance that they are as you say 'attracted' to each other." I said making air quotations with my fingers when I had said attraction.

Ansel sighed folding his arms. "Alright fine argue with me all you want, but it is the truth. Besides I have the sinking suspicion that they are more than attracted to each other. That it is something completely out of there control, that they can't help it."

I sighed shaking me head. Nothing was making sense anymore. "Listen Ansel if they have a crush on each other that's fine but they don't love each other. Klaus is way to old for Luna anyway and she is way to young. She is barely even a teenager." I said and Ansel smirked looking a lot like Klaus at that moment in time. "Have you forgotten Damon that you are also way to old for Cami to. Cami is only 24. Might I also add that Luna ages slower which is why she's still only 18, but if we were being technical she would be in her early twenties. And besides every women Niklaus will ever date he will be older than them. Because he is simply over 1,000 years old. And who are you to tell Luna that she is to young to love?" He said. Causing me to kick yet another bale of hay again, out of anger.

"He's right you know." I looked up to see Cami walking towards me. Oh great know I couldn't be mad at them now, I couldn't argue with Cami. Besides she was always right. It didn't matter what it was about, she was just always right. Maybe I just had to trust her on this.

"Why do I always have to be the bad guy? I was just trying to keep them safe-" Cami held up her hand cutting me off.

She was now standing next to Ansel. "Damon you are not the bad guy here okay. I am sure they both understand that you were trying to protect them but Luna is a 18 year old girl, a teenage ruled by her hormone's and mood swings. Luna has gone through so much in her life that no one should ever have to. She does 't really have any friends or no anyone outside of this family, the Mikealson family. They, we are basically all she has. You also can't forget that she's not just any normal human 18 year old girl. She is a werewolf and she is a witch. And let's be honest some times even with Luna, that is not the best supernatural creature combo. She is this all powerful person, but she doesn't want to be. And lets not talk about her mental and emotional health/state right now. She is going to do a lot of things you don't like and approve of just because. You are just going to have to get over that. She already feels like a freak of nature, I know because she has talked to me about it. It's not right of you to say why she can't love someone. Maybe she doesn't love Klaus, but you and I both know that her admiration for him will grow and grow. Until she does love him, but right now she's just falling for him. And there is nothing you can do about it. I think you forget what it is like to want someone or something you can't-"

I cut her off. "I mean how do we really know if that is the case?" I asked and Cami smiled looking at Ansel who was having trouble trying not to laugh. "He is in denial." He said causing Cami to laugh, and say "Yes, yes he is."

I rolled my eyes this was so not happening. Cami and Ansel were not becoming the 'epic speech' team to talk me up when I got down.

It wasn't that I didn't want Luna to be happy, I wanted both of them Luna and Klaus to be happy. I could see them being together, like how everyone saw Elijah and Hayley getting together. But in there predictions Elijah didn't break Hayley's heart. And that's what I was really afraid of. They couldn't like each other, because if Klaus broke her heart or hurt her I couldn't kill him or hurt him.

If he broke her heart who was going to be there to pick the shards back up and glue them back together, and stick it back into her chest. Me. If he broke her heart who was going to be there with her, holding her while she cried her eyes out, saying how much she missed him holding her. Me. If he broke her heart who was going to have to get her back up on her feet again. Me. If he broke her heart who was going to have to go kick his ass even though I could very well die while doing it. Me. Not her older sister Hayley, not her friend Jake. Not Davina, Rebekah, Caroline, and not Cami. Certainly not Josh, Stefan, Ansel, or Marcel. And not Elijah or Kol. It was going to have to be me. As her father I would have the responsibility off handling this. And handling this very well. Because it would be up to me is she would be able to breathe again. And I was scared, terrified that she would feel the pain of a broken heart. Because I knew exactly what it felt like. And the pain is un-imaginable.

Cami put her arm around me and walked me out of the barn. Drawing me out of my thoughts of Klaus, Luna, and heartbreak. Cami kissed me on the cheek, as the three of us were walking away from the barn and to the house. She told me that everything was going to be alright I didn't believe her at first. Then I remembered that today was going to be a long day. So all I had to do was keep my head down and cool. Because I couldn't afford to mess today up, Luna deserved at least one nice day every once in a while. But this time it wasn't from Klaus it was from me.

...

I decided to let go of my anger, and frustration on Klaus at least until later. I could always revive it, if needed. In face I was going to during me and Klaus' little chat.

"Come on cheer up, today is going to be a good day. We are going to go have a great time stuffing our faces with Chinese food." Josh said eating his second bowl of fruit-loops.

I looked up from my arms still in a mood. Feeling someone's arms wrap around me. I tensed up turning around. I relaxed seeing that it was just Luna. She was wrapped up in a fuzzy white bath robe, and her hair wrapped up in a towel.

"Hey Dad." She said and I rolled my eyes but gave her a hug anyway. My anger and frustration at Klaus "Hey daughter." I said causing her to laugh lightly into my shoulder. Hearing a picture taking sound I turned and looked behind me seeing Josh with his phone out. He looked at me apologetically. "Sorry I uhh couldn't resist. It's just me and my old man never got along. And seeing you and Luna all huddled up I just couldn't help my self."

I sighed and tilted my head to the side. Giving him a little glare. Josh apparently got the message because he nodded and took his cereal and left the room.

Luna pulled away from me and gave me a weird look. And that was before she slapped me on the arm. "Oww, I said what was that for." I asked rubbing the sore spot where she had hit me. "For chasing Josh away, what did he do wrong?" She asked and I took her hand.

"Luna we need to talk about something, well someone-" I started out but Luna suddenly hopped out of the chair and went under the table. I was so shocked I didn't ask what was wrong at first because I had been so taken back.

I picked the table cloth of the table up so I could see her. "Umm Luna are you okay, Who are you hiding from?" I said and Luna sighed now appearing breathless. "My sister, Rebekah, Caroline, basically every girl in the house, well besides Hope of course."

I frowned up at what she had said. Why would the girls be after her?

"Why are you hiding from them?" I asked and Luna sighed adjusting her towel around her head. "Because they want details."

"Details on what?" I asked confused, what could they possibly want details about? What hair shampoo she used to get her hair so silky?

"They want details on how last night went." Luna said and I nodded understanding what she meant. I opened my mouth about to say something when someone else did.

"I know what you mean love, I'm being hunted to."

Me and Luna's reaction was simultaneous. We both yelled and jumped up. I simply jumped up out of my chair. But Luna had hit her head under the table hard.

I sat back down in my chair, looking under the table. I could now see who had spoken under the table and it hadn't been Luna, but it was Klaus. I had to do a double take. I mean it wasn't every day you saw Klaus Mikealson under the table, also in a robe. Almost identical to Luna's but blue.

"You scared me." Luna said her heart on her chest, where her heart was. But she wasn't looking at me. She was looking at Klaus. Who chuckled and looked down, why was his face pinkish. Oh my god this was so not happening. I screamed inside of my head. Not in front of me.

Klaus put his hand on her shoulder. And I tensed up again. "Sorry about that love, I didn't mean to it's just I felt strange sitting here under the table, not saying anything." Luna nodded, okay now I know she was definitely blushing. And why was she biting down on her lip. Uhhh I had to stop this now.

Luckily I didn't have to. I was glad because we most likely would have turned into a fight, and I didn't want to do that in front of Luna. Kol and Rebekah had appeared in the kitchen, wearing wide grins on their faces. Their eyes darting across the room widely. Kol looked at Rebekah who cleared her throat. Now looking directly at me. I scooted my chair back, feeling un-comfortable. Now that her gaze was upon me. "Damon have you by any chance seen Luna or Klaus around. We've been looking around for them." Rebekah said adding a smile shortly after.

"Umm no I uhh haven't seen the two of them since early this morning." I said crossing my legs, now sitting sideways. Now I was blocking the space between the table cloth and the floor. Kol seemed to notice this because he narrowed his eyes at me, folding his arms. Rebekah was still smiling as she walked away from me. I watched her as she grabbed a knife from a drawer. I attempted to get up, but Kol's hands were there pushing me down. "And where do you think your going?" He said looking down at me a laugh in his voice.

I sighed fighting an urge to look down at the table. But didn't because then they would know. Rebekah was now back, the small knife in her hands. But I knew just because it was small didn't mean that it couldn't be just as deadly as a bigger knife.

She sat on my lap, preventing me from getting up. And Kol had disappeared. I felt my arms get lifted up and before I knew it, they were zip-tied. I was expecting them to fall but they hadn't.

I looked up to see Kol holding them. He smiled down evilly at me. I scoffed looking at Rebekah, she was still siting on my lap. Sure if I hadn't been with Cami, then I would have been flattered, but I was with Cami. So I was un-comfortable and confused on what was going on.

"Look Rebekah I'm with Cami you know that, why are you on me?" I asked and Rebekah leaned forward smiling, lifting her hand up holding the small knife. She pressed it up against my cheek causing me to wince. It wasn't enough to draw blood, but it didn't exactly feel good.

"I'm flattered Damon, but i'm sorry you took it that way. Trust and believe me, I'm not interested in you. Well at least not any more. And besides I'm best friends with Cami, of course I would know that. We have conversations about you all the time. Besides I have feelings for some one else. But never mind that. I am not here for you love. I am here for Klaus and Luna, you know them right." Rebekah said and I sighed thinking about my options. I could either not tell Rebekah and Kol that they were under the table, and get my ass cut up into little bits and pieces by Rebekah Mikealson. Or I could tell Rebekah and Kol that they were under the table and not get my ass cut up into little bits and pieces by Rebekah Mikealson. The choice was simple really.

"Wait, wait I know exactly where they are." I said when Rebekah began running the short blade along my mouth. The room was silent and Rebekah got off of my lap and Kol let go of my arms. I noticed that the zip ties were gone.

I sighed in relief when Kol put my arms down. "Ah-ah-ah not so fast. Tell us where they are and no one has to get hurt." Kol said he now had the knife. I wished that it was till in Rebekah's hands and not his. Kol was un-predictable not to mention he was crazy if he didn't get what he wanted.

"I'm sorry guys, it's just they've got a knife on me. What was I supposed to do?" I said and at first there was silence. But then I made out the quiet voices of Klaus and Luna.

"Should we try and make a run for it love?"

"Well I suppose it's better than sitting here doing nothing."

Everything seemed to happen in slow motion. Rebekah and Kol had been looking at the table, their gaze locked. Luna went first, running, only to be caught by Rebekah.

Luna struggled in Rebekah's tight grip, but there simply was no escaping it. "I didn't do anything wrong Rebekah. So because you love me, do you think you could let me down. I mean we have so much to do today. I mean do we really even have the time." Luna said clearly trying to plead with Rebekah, who just leaned back her head a laughed evilly. She was getting pretty good at that if I was being honest with myself.

"Oh Luna you are so cute. There is always time especially when it's about you and my brother."

"Rebekah." Luna said glaring at Rebekah. I put my head in my hands. Surely Rebekah didn't think that they could ever, that they would-

"If you promise to tell us every detail of last night then I will let you go. And then we can all go shopping and have a blast. But if you don't talk to me, and the girls. Then we are going to have some problems." Rebekah said causing Luna to sigh and roll her eyes muttering the word 'fine' under her breath.

Rebekah was smiling widely at me and then Kol as she made her way out of the kitchen to where ever the girls were.

It was silent for a few seconds and then Kol sighed, tapping his foot clearly impatient. "Come on Nik. It's okay to come out now. Me and the boys just want to talk to you.

It would have been amusing on any other day. To see Klaus Mikealson. Klaus freaking Mikealson crawl out from under the kitchen table. But today was not any other day, unfortunately.

Kol looked smug as he watched Klaus stand up. Kol attempted to grab Klaus' arm like Rebekah did with Luna, but Klaus was not having it.

He pushed his brother off him, glaring. "Kol I wouldn't push me to much today. I will come willingly and I will talk about the events of last night. But that does not mean I will tolerate be dragged around by you." Kol nodded now seeming slightly more un-happy than he was a few seconds ago.

"Coming Damon?" Kol asked as he and Klaus started walking out of the kitchen.

I sighed getting up. I couldn't help but be curious about the 'events' of last night. I wanted to know, maybe then it would be easier to figure out a way to talk to Klaus about him and Luna, and boundaries. What he could do, what he couldn't do. I was going to have to make a few threats, but first I was going to have to get him to listen to me. And hopefully the conversation we were going to have in the future wouldn't end up happening like it did this morning. Me saying something about Luna, something a father would say. And then him saying 'Well if I did there isn't anything you would be able to do about it.'

"Sure why not." I said noticing Klaus look back at me, a frown on his face. Maybe he was thinking about what I was thinking about. It could be possible, I could see where he was coming from. But that was in my non-father point of view. In my father point of view I saw Klaus as a potential candidate that would break Luna's heart. I just couldn't un-see it. I continued walking with them up the stairs to where ever the boys were. Determined on finding out a way to survive this holiday season.

In all truth, hands down I loved Christmas. It was my favorite time of year. You couldn't change my mind. That was before I became a father. I was starting not to like it as much. I also had a thing for Valentine's day to, usually I would be counting down the days excited. But now I would be dreading it.

Caroline Pov

...

Me and all the girls (Rebekah, Hayley, Cami, Luna, and Davina) were sitting in my room, well my new room anyway. Well Klaus and Luna's room if I was being completely honest with myself, which by the way I was. But last night we (me and Stefan sorta claimed it, well we kicked them out so it was ours now...)

Me and the girls were gathered here to listen, and offer some advice and insight if we could. We all wanted to hear what had happened on Luna and Klaus 'date.' Even though I had only known Luna a little over a day I still cared. I was just like that. I got easily attached to things. Like for example when I was younger and by younger I mean 16 so it wasn't that long ago. We had this stray do come to my house. Well me and my mom's house. It had a slightly tall yet stocky build. It's head was huge. It had a auburn fur color, and blue eyes. It had been a pit bull. I remember being scared at first because I had heard about their bad reputation. But it was the sweetest thing. I had been playing with it outside for a couple of hours when my mother had come home. She was very upset. And she took the dog to the pound. I remember crying for hours and hours but she had refused. My mother Liz, the town sheriff had hated dogs, cats, and just pets period. No matter how much I wanted them, I never got them. I never got to have that one great child hood pet, that every other kid in the world got the chance to. I remember being angry when the pound she took it to was going to put it down, because it wasn't getting adopted. But my mother being who she was still denied me what I wanted most in the world. So the dog that I had bonded was dead a few weeks later. All because of my mother and the breed of the dog. I never forgave her for it, and I don't think I ever would. I still felt the pain like it happened yesterday. Alright now that I was done thinking about the depressing parts of my life, my depressing past. I had to focus on the now of things, and the future. Not what happened way back when. It was time to move on and think about other important things/people such as Luna and Klaus. I had already done some research, this morning. Some time after Damon had left and Stefan and I were fully clothed and detached from each other, I had went in to the small town.

The place where Luna and Klaus had been last night on their 'date'/ night out together. The town was small, smaller than Mystic Falls. So didn't have much to it, which meant there wasn't much to navigate, which was fine by me because I wasn't good with directions. Even with a map in my face, or GPS on my phone. It was almost like my brain had programmed itself to ignore and forget what I said and what I read or heard. If I was being specific what road or street to go on, and when to take a right or left turn. There weren't many establishments in this town, meaning buildings. There wasn't even a school, which surprised me. I wondered where the kids went, most were probably home schooled, others who weren't probably had to leave their home town, to go to a school in another town. There wasn't much to look at. I could tell that most of the houses were in the woods or on the edge. There weren't very many big buildings. Except two small grungy looking ones, they were hotels. The town had one brightly colored supermarket. And even that didn't look like much. A few houses were on the edge of the road but even they were small. I was surprised to see that the small town had a bar in the first place, when it didn't even have a park so that the kids could play. It was one of the smallest bars I had ever seen, it looked like a cabin almost. Except it had three big glass windows. It wasn't hard trying to figure out where they went. I knew Klaus well enough that he wouldn't have even walked into the two small grungy looking hotels. Why would they go to a hotel in the first place. And I knew that he wasn't really the supermarket type and Luna didn't seem like that type either. So the bar was the only feasible option that I saw possible, turns out I had been right. But I didn't find that out yet, at least not until later.

I had walked into the bar, not at all surprised to see that it was crowded. And mostly filled with passed out people, the bottles of boo's still locked tightly in their grips. I asked those who were awake and mostly sober about Klaus and Luna. And they told me everything I needed to know. And there were pictures. I was pretty sure that I had the whole story. But I just wanted to hear it from Luna herself. I was sure that they hadn't kissed yet. They (Klaus and Luna) were blind for there feelings for each other. And if Klaus found out that Luna had feelings for him, he wouldn't move things forward, even if he liked Luna. Which he did, I knew that for a fact, Rebekah had filled me in on everything. Since I came back me and her have been buddy buddy. And that was fine by me. But I knew they wouldn't kiss for quite some time. And the first kiss was everything. It would tell you if what you felt was real, if that person was really the one. There would be sparks, and passion, not just lust. It was always good to be friends first. Well good friends in their case.

"Look who I found hiding under the kitchen table." I heard a voice say, I looked up surprised to see Rebekah standing there in the door way. I smiled seeing Luna in her grasp, the poor girl, I felt sorry for her. She was very red in the face, probably embarrassed half to death. Luna did seem like the kind to get flustered and embarrassed easily. I noticed especially when it happened to concern Klaus. Even though I hadn't known Luna for that long.

The room was silent as Luna took her place to sit down. She sat down between her sister and me. Which in my opinion was the best choice.

"So how did last night go?" Asked Davina and I smiled that was the best way to do it. No point of easing in to it, I mean Rebekah had just dragged her up here in this room, my room now. It was only fair to Luna to be direct and forward with her. Luna sighed shifting her legs, chewing on her bottom lip, it was something I did when I was nervous to. We seemed to have a lot in common. "Nothing much really, you know it was just a really normal night." Luna said looking slightly un-comfortable and nervous now that everyone's eyes were on her. I didn't blame her for being un-comfortable or nervous, I would have been to.

"Oh please Luna, we are not stupid. We all know more than that happened, it's not every night you get a chance to go out with my brother. Most woman don't get the chance, and they become a snack instead. Not that you would ever be a snack to him, well at least not in that since. We don't want to tease you, we would all just like to know what happened so if we need to we can bury Klaus alive, or if you just need a shoulder to cry on, or even some advice. We are here for you Luna, even Caroline who is new here is here for you, believe it or not." Rebekah said patting Luna on her knee.

Luna seemed more relaxed after Rebekah had said those words. I felt compelled to do the same. "Okay so how about this, last night was great, even though that had been my first ever sort of date." Luna said and Hayley sighed running her hands threw her hair. "Come on, we need the details." Hayley said nudging her sister on the shoulder playfully.

"I was in here with Caroline and Stefan, just hanging out. I was still in pain from everything that had happened. I got this text from Klaus, asking if I wanted to get out of here, meaning this house. I mean I couldn't really say no, it was Klaus for one thing. And for another I wanted to get out of the house, I've never snuck out before so I wanted to know what that was like to. It was totally worth it, hopefully I'll get to do it again soon. I changed into some clothes more suited for being outside in the cold weather, of course with the help of Stefan and Caroline. Caroline dis my make-up which by the way I am still very grateful for." Luna said smiling at me. I nodded smiling back. Who would have thought me and Luna would get along. Especially after last night.

I mean the only thing that would be standing between us would be Klaus. But Luna was the one with feelings for him, not me. I didn't anymore. I had simply outgrew them, like my teenage habits. Even though I was still technically 18 I would still act like a teenager sometimes. Being sassy, etc, but I was going to be 18 forever hopefully. I acted more like an adult. I even went to college without Elena and Bonnie. They just weren't interested in it any more like I was. Even though I was a vampire I still wanted to go through with my plan and that was go to college. Even though I didn't major anything I just went to have a good time, just to experience it, even if it was just once. I didn't really want a career at this point in time, I had plenty of money so I didn't have to worry about getting a job. I preferred to not be tied down to anything. I liked the feeling of being free. Back to Klaus and my feelings for him I shed them like a snake sheds their skin. Not that I was saying that I was a snake, but that's the only way I could really describe it. The skin I had now was different, way different than it was back then. This is the skin I preferred instead of acting like a spoiled teenage brat and liking Klaus, I was now a woman with a strong liking for Stefan Salvatore. So with him out of the way we, (me and Luna) could be friends. At least I hoped we would be. Luna seemed like a very nice and likable person. Besides I had already planned on staying a little while. I had already made phone calls out to Alaric, Joesette, Matt and Vicky telling them were I would be, and who I would be with. Alaric wasn't to happy with me spending some quality time with the Mikealsons. He made me promise that I would come back home after any danger that involved the Mikealsons. I of course promised him that I would come home, but it had not been totally genuine if I was being honest with myself. Nothing interesting back home was going on anyway, and that was boring. Well besides dealing with Joesette's crazy twin brother, Kai, but Alaric had said that they had the situation under control. Besides I hated Kai with a passion the further a way from him I was the better. Kai and Joesette were going through this whole weird twin 'merge' thing, and it sounded crazy enough. I mean couldn't a set of twins be normal in Mystic Falls, and have no supernatural aspect to them. Apparently that was to much to ask. But I needed a vacation a break, even if it was just for a little while. I had just lost my best friends Bonnie and Elena. I needed a vacation, I needed time to grieve. Besides I had grown up in Mystic Falls all my life, knowing who was living five houses from me. I wanted to meet new people, I wanted to make new friends. Not that I didn't love my people back home, but I just needed to breathe for a minute. I was very confident that they understood where I was coming from, or at least I hoped. It wasn't like I was going to be gone forever, just for a little while. I knew I was going to make it in time for Alaric's and Josie's wedding. But that was months and months away. But I needed to be back for the final plans, because I loved to help with weddings and anything associated with them. Besides I really wanted to see if this thing I had with Stefan was going to go any where interesting. Sure last night had been epic but I wanted more than sex and physical confrontation. Not that the sex was good because believe me it was. But I wanted a relationship. Yes, I admitted it. I wanted a relationship, a relationship with none other than Stefan Salvatore. I wanted to try with him, and I wanted to succeed also with him. I was tired of being treated like a toy, a doll something to play with. I had been in many love triangles in my life time, to many. Me, Damon, and Elena. Me, Klaus, and Tyler. Me, Stefan, and Elena. Well three really, but it was still a lot. More than anyone should have to go through. Now that I looked back on it, I realized that I was stupid and childish. Now I was more mature. I just wanted to care about some one, and some one to care about me just as much. I wanted someone to love me. I wanted a love to sweep me off my feet. I was hoping that love would be Stefan Salvatore. I hoped that wasn't to much to ask for.

"Did Klaus notice?" Asked Cami and every one else nodded, including me. Every one seeming to agree with the question Cami had asked. "I think he did I mean he was staring at me a lot. But I don't know if that's a good thing or not maybe there was something wrong with my make-up or my hair. That's what I was thinking at that point in time. And I remember we had gotten some hot chocolate, at the bar we had went to. Well the only bar in that town. He just kept giving me this look, and I have seen that look before, when he was looking at me." Luna said and the room was so silent, I wondered if any one was still breathing. I knew I was hanging on to every word, eagerly listening and waiting. It was hard to stay patient though. "Then he leaned over the table we had been sitting at, we were directly across from each other. But he was leaning towards me. I remember being confused and taken back. I had asked him what was wrong, but he said nothing looking at me with that expression on his face. He moved a piece of my hair away from my face. And I remember his fingers briefly brushing against my face." Luna said absently touching her face.

It was quiet for a moment. Before the room erupted in loud squeals. I started hopping up and down in my seat clapping, smiling widely. I admit I felt giddy when Luna said that. The way she described him looking at her, and moving a piece of hair that had been in her face. It gave me butterflies in my stomach just thinking about it. I might even have goosebumps, I wouldn't doubt it. It wasn't that I liked Klaus or anything like that. I just imagined me being in Luna's place, and Stefan in Klaus'. It was the way she had said it to. Even after last night, imagining him, Stefan doing some thing as simple as that, or some thing around those lines was enough to make me feel that way. I wanted Stefan to look at me the way Klaus looked at Luna. The way she described it. I wanted to feel the way Luna did when Klaus looked at her, but replacing her and Klaus with me with Stefan instead.

After the room had quieted down, Luna started talking again.

"After he did that he sat back down, still looking at me. Then after our staring contest he got up and asked me to dance." After Luna had said that it was on again. The women in the room had started squealing again. But Rebekah and Hayley shushed them, just as captivated by the story as I was. I was just to engrossed to event tell the rest of the girls to be quiet. Luna began talking again, after it quieted down some.

"And as you all know I said yes. I mean why would I turn that offer down? I mean why would any one really? And we found a spot in the small bar that wasn't to crowded, and we danced to the song-" Luna was rudely interrupted again but not by us girls. Oh no we were all sitting on the edges of our seats chewing on our nails, gripping our seats in anticipation. Even though we were all sitting on the edge of our seats, about to scream in excitement. It hadn't been us we hadn't broke at least not yet. But it had been the boys and not us, the thought was comforting and annoying at the same time if that were possible. What we heard was loud 'whooping' noises, and then what sounded like loud banging. We all waited for a while. For the loud annoying noises to stop, did they have to be so loud and immature all the damn time. I was pretty sure that most of the racket was being caused by Kol, Josh, and possibly Damon. I doubted it was Elijah, Marcel, Klaus, or Ansel they seemed like the most mature or close to mature men in this house hold.

Luna cleared her throat and continued speaking after the whopping and the banning from the boys could no longer be heard. "As I was saying. The song Perfect by Ed Sheeran was playing."

"Aww that's a really good song to dance to. Me and Kol dance to that song at a small cafe in the French Quarter once." Davina said and Luna smiled. And I did to, her and Kol were rather cute together. She tamed his wild side.

"Yeah it wasn't the first time that we danced to that song. A year ago when the compound had the ball he came in to my room. Back then he was with Genevieve the snake, so she was his date to the ball. And Stefan was mine." Luna said quieting down the room once again.

"But we were able to hear the music from down stairs so he asked me if I wanted to dance. And I said yes. He was wearing a tux and I was wearing that lovely dress Rebekah had gotten me." Luna said now looking at Rebekah who smiled at her, rubbing her shoulder smiling.

"And it was nice. Very nice, it just felt right. I know it might sound ridiculous but it felt magical. He was actually supposed to be my date to the ball. But the snake Genevieve had to ruin that. But she didn't stop us from having one dance. And I will never forget that dance since technically it had been my first ever with a boy, man, with Klaus." Luna said smiling.

This time instead of squealing the room was filled 'awws' and even some tears, mainly by Rebekah, me, and Davina. Cami pulled a box of tissues from behind her. She came prepared, Cami was proving to be quite resourceful. I thanked her and cried more because of her kindness. I couldn't help it. Sure I was over reacting but they just sounded so cute together. And I was over tired, and stressed out about me and Stefan.

"Okay Luna please continue, sorry for all of the interruptions." Rebekah said after she blew her nose in a tissue. "As I was saying we danced to that song again. And just like the first time, it was enchanting. Then we you know just joked around a bit. There was this one couple a little way's from us and they were head banging the Sandman by Metallica. And they head-butted each other. This was before we danced to the song again. Then after that the song Perfect by Ed Sheeran played. We were now slow dancing, his hands on my waist. I smiled hearing the song, because I remembered the night of the ball. And he seemed to notice to because he said that he remembered it to. And I said 'how could I forget.' Then he frowned up, but I don't think I had said or done anything wrong because he wasn't looking at me, but the floor. And he looked deep in thought. He finally looked up at me, trying to put on a smile, but I knew something was bothering him. 'Well if I were you I would have tried to forget. You and Stefan,' he had said trailing off. I now understood the problem."

"Oh I um have a question.: Cami stated interrupting Luna.

Luna looked over at Cami who gave her an apologetic smile. "And I have one to if you wouldn't mind." I said and Luna nodded at me.

Luna turned to Cami "Okay shoot, what is your question?" Luna said and Cami leaned forward clutching a pillow to her chest. "Do you regret going to the ball with Stefan?"

I looked up at Luna to see her reaction. I was surprised that she wasn't taken back at all. She seemed so calm now.

"Yes and no. I had a good time in the beginning. You know he showed me how to really have fun that night. Not because he was being controlled by Genevieve. I'm sure that he would have never hurt me other wise. And I don't blame Stefan for that, it was Genevieve's fault. I didn't know that then, but I know it now." Luna said and I frowned feeling sorry for Luna. I hoped where ever Genevieve was she was dead, because after what she did she didn't deserve to live after that.

"Is she dead, the snake Genevieve?" I asked purely out of curiosity. If she wasn't I was about to take a trip to where ever she was and murder her myself. But something in me told me that Klaus wouldn't let anyone who hurt Luna live.

Rebekah laughed at my question and I tilted my head confused. I didn't understand what was so funny about my question. Luna looked confused to, her brow furrowed.

"Oh Caroline you are to funny. When ever Hayley was having the baby, Hope. The witches were trying to take it. They had planned to kill it, and concentrate the remains so they could have centuries and centuries of power. Bull shit in my opinion. Anyway Luna had killed a human before this. And as you know Luna is a hybrid. Half witch, half were-wolf. And that night had landed on a full moon. You know how that works. So Luna was going through her first transformation into a wolf. And some how Luna had this natural urge to protect Hayley and the baby. Because Luna started killing everyone around Hayley. Any one that tried to harm her, was immediately eliminated, desecrated, turned into pieces really. And Genevieve had been in the way, thankfully. It was very entertaining watching Luna tear her head off with her teeth, tearing her heart out of her chest." Rebekah said with a smile on her face and and a shudder ran through Luna's body as she covered her mouth and gagged. Hayley rubbed her back looking at her sympathetically. Her face twisted in grimace, she was disgusted. Luna shuddered again saying "I am so happy to say that I don't remember doing that, or tasting-"

"Okay, okay please stop you guy's are going to make me sick." Davina said clutching her stomach, curled up in to a tight ball. Since I was the closest one next to her I patted her back trying to comfort her. The girl had a soft stomach, or so I had heard. Who ever this Genevieve chic was, or had been most have been a nasty piece of work. It was good that she was eliminated from this world.

"And what was your question Caroline?" Luna said causing me to look up from the floor. "Ohhh," I had said coming back in to reality, I had been in my head for the past couple of minutes. If there had been any conversations I didn't hear them, due to my ability to space out. Effectively blocking out everyone and everything. It was a gift I had ever since I had been five and my mother had told me 'no' for the first time I could remember. I had blocked her out, of course. But as the years passed I had realized that it was a gift. I had a true gift for blocking people out, and being able to space out and be in my own little world.If that wasn't a gift, I didn't know what was.

I inhaled deeply, getting ready to ask this question, and trying to guess what her and every one else's reaction would be. Oh well here it goes then, I said in my head.

"If given the chance and opportunity would you ever sleep with Stefan again? And if not why?" I asked looking at Luna. Her green and gray hazel eyes seemed to be more gray than green today. It made her look even more intimidating as she stared back at me. Like she was studying me.

"If I ever had the chance or the opportunity to sleep with Stefan Salvatore again, the answer is simple, I wouldn't. You ask why because I have feelings for some one else. Of course you probably already know who that some one else is. Stefan and I are friends, good friends nothing more, nothing less. Beside's Caroline, we just got to the point of being able to be friends, why would I hurt you like that when I know you have feeling's for him?" Luna said earnestly.

Her answers to my questions were good but I wanted to ask more. I wanted to know more. "If you didn't have feeling's for Stefan than why did you sleep with him in the first place?" I asked. But inside my own head I answered my own question. As a distraction, just to feel good, just to be wild. I didn't feel guilty about my answer because I knew every women in this room (well maybe except Luna and Davnia) used at least one man in their lives. Just for the pleasure of it, why be guilty of that.

Luna sighed taking the towel that had been wrapped around her hair off of her head. Her hair was still wet and that made it darker than usual if it was even possible. Her hair now looked black instead of dark brown as it hung down her back. "I was not myself that night. Besides as you know Genevieve was controlling him, making him do certain things. I couldn't see that though. I'm pretty sure that we would have never happened. But if it would have happened with or without Genevieve he would have been a distraction. Because I felt lonely, I was hurt, and I was angry." I nodded being able to identify with her. I had done that at least four times that I could remember. With four different people. And that was when I was sober enough to remember.

I decided that after a while of silence, it was time that I brought out the evidence well the pictures. I pulled out my phone ignoring everyone's confused looks, and found the picture. I showed it to Luna first who frowned at me. "Where did you get this?" She asked horror written all over her face. Well that and shock joined along side embarrassment and discomfort. My phone was now going around the room in our tight circle, everyone had now seen the picture at least twice maybe three times. I smiled at Luna. "Oh you know, I just went into townand asked around about the two of you. It wasn't that hard, the bar was very easy to find. I mean it's not exactly exclusive. Although if you ask me it looks way more like a cabin than a bar. But that's just my opinion. Anyway some one just sent the pictures to my phone. And that Luna is how I required these beautiful works of art." I said gesturing to the pictures of her and Klaus on my phone. Luna shook her head her face ever reder than before, if that was even possible. "Well Luna it looked like you and Klaus were about to kiss, and I noticed that you were missing a boot. Would you care to explain the situation to us." Rebekah said and Luna looked up from her hands and nodded.

"Well we were dancing and then some drunk guy stumbled over to us, and he threw up on my boot." Luna said disgust in her voice. I also detected anger in her voice to. Davina gagged loudly, and Cami patted her on the back trying to soothe her. Poor girl, she was not exactly equipped with dealing with vomit or anything along those lines really.

"Well what did Klaus do?" Hayley asked now fully alert and I nodded interested in Luna's answer. I wonder if he ripped the guys head out, oh or maybe even his spine this had to be good. Instead of hiding her face and blushing yet again, Luna instead smiled softly. "Well Klaus did have a few words with the man, but not before putting me behind his back." I smiled and everyone 'awwed' again. But the noises didn't get to loud and over bearing like they have been the past two times. They were really so cute, they truly truly were. So much better than Klaroline. What could I call them, what would a better ship name be? Kluna or Kuna? I personally thought that the first one was the best one. And yes I made a ship name for me and Klaus, Klaroline. I had been proud of it. But even I knew it was never going to happen, and I didn't want it to. I had Stefan now. We never would have worked out anyway. He needed someone strong, some one unique, some one special. I was not strong and I was not as unique nor special. Lunawas a whole different species, she fit into her own category of supernatural species. She was strong, a lot stronger than me. She had been through a hard life, that much was obvious. Even though I didn't know her all that well. With everyone trying to kill her and everything, and I heard that she had a pretty rough child hood. And they were just so great together, they balanced each other out. And they looked great together. At least from what I could hear and see. I loved that he was so overprotective, it was really truly sweet. I hoped that one day Stefan would be protective over me like that. Although I didn't see him being protective over me at all. Now that I thought about it.

"Okay and then?" Davina asked now some what okay, even though her face was still tinted a greenish color, her body still curled around a small blue pillow. "And as he was telling the man off I walked outside, feeling angry, gross, and violated. Then he asked me if everything was alright, but I didn't say anything. I just turned around and hugged him, trying to calm him down and myself also. He looked angry, more angrier than me. I told him that I was feeling fine, that it was just really cold out. And he seemed to notice that fact because he finished my sentence before I could. And he said to me to sit tight and that he would be right back. Because he said he was going to kill the man who had thrown up on my boot. Which by the way I don't know if I told you guys, but I had already taken off the boot, because of the smell and I could feel the warmness of it-" Luna was interrupted by the sound of loud gagging. The gagging was coming from Davina, Cami was rubbing her back again, attempting to soothe her. But it wasn't working.

"Let's not go to into depth about the details in the vomit, because I don't think she can take much more." Cami said gesturing towards Davina who was hunched over again and Luna nodded understanding. "Anyway he said that he was going to kill the man and then get me a new pair boots. I told him that it had been a long day and that I didn't want to take up to much of his time. But he had said that I never take up to much of his time, he said that I wasn't an inconvenience, not for him any way, not now and not ever. And he told me to stop saying that I was." I jumped up not being able to stop myself. I started clapping again but this time I was alone in doing so. The others to engrossed. When they looked up at me annoyed I didn't care, they were just so cute. I loved them together so much. If they didn't get together soon I was going to die, literally. It was quiet for a moment, after I stopped clapping and sat back down. I noticed that Luna was giving me an odd look. But she continued any way, and I leaned forward eagerly wanting to see and here what she was going to say. Wanting to see her facial expressions, to see if her reaction was truly genuine. "He had said that he wanted me to be happy. And after he said that he stepped closer to me, caressing my face gently. His hands had been so soft I had to remember how to breathe properly and how to speak. After I regained back the control in my body I spoke. I said I know and I asked him if he was happy. Dealing with me, I mean it can't all be that great, I said. I remember being worried about his reaction and what he was going to say. Then he told me he hasn't been happy in a long time. He said that he was happy when he was with me. He said that he just gets frustrated every time he tries to take me out something bad always happens. Which was true, I mean it's like who ever was trying to kill us or hunt us down waited for that specific day or moment. Or like he said some one always dies. Which is also true. Then he told me that he just wants us, me and him, to be able to spend time together. He said that he wants to take me some where nice, and not in any dump like this. He had been talking about that bar of a cabin we had been in. Sure that hot chocolate was great but everything else was trash, well like he said a dump. He had said that I deserved better, that he was ashamed of taking me here. To the bar like cabin. I guess that we were so deep in conversation that we didn't notice all the people at the window had gathered to watch us. That was probably when the picture that Caroline has was taken."

Luna said and I nodded still engrossed in what she was saying. "Like I had said before he had been staring at me, so I had though I had done something, or said something wrong. And I asked him about it. I said then why were you looking at me like something was wrong or I wanted to say but he interrupted me by shaking his head. Putting his hand on my face, leaning in. Saying that he wasn't looking at me because there was something wrong. He said that he wasn't the only one looking at me like that, trust me I knew exactly what they were thinking. He said that they were lucky that he didn't tear them apart limb from limb just because he knew what they were thinking. Then he asked me if I had looked at myself tonight you are-" She said and Rebekah jumped up from her seat (Oh great now my craziness was starting to affect Rebekah to, what was the world going to come to) grabbing Luna by the shoulders. Violently shaking her. "Come on out with it silly girl. We don't have all bloody day, no one is leaving this room until we have details about last night. Now what in the bloody hell did he say to you?" Rebekah asked well demanded really. And I laughed seeing Luna's face. She was looking at Rebekah in shock, like she was crazy. Well right now she was.

Hayley glared at me folding her arms. I shifted confused I thought we (me and Hayley) were good now. What did I say? What did I do? "Caroline this is serious." I nodded I had to keep this giddiness thing under control. "Oh come one Hayley lighten up a bit." Cami said stroking Davina's hair. Davina now had her head on Cami's lap, still looking a little nauseous but other wise fine. Hayley visibly relaxed and so did I. The last thing I wanted to do was fight with everyone. I was trying to make amends with everyone. And I wanted to help as much as I possibly could. I wanted to enjoy this 'vacation' I was having. And that meant getting along with everyone and I was determined to do it. And do it right. "Well Rebekah see the thing is I never knew what he was going to say to me because he, well we had been rudely interrupted by people pounding on the glass of the window of the bar. I remember saying damnit, because I was angry and frustrated. I had been working up the courage to tell him how I felt about him, and in that moment in time it felt right to tell him then. And we had been interrupted yet again, for the second time that night. We, me and Klaus, had looked over at the window to see everyone from inside the bar, crowded around the windows. There faces pressed up against the glass. I don't remember seeing any phones thought. 'Kiss her' they all shouted loudly. And I turned to Klaus to see that he was pissed. He was giving them the 'I'm going to rip your head off your shoulders in five seconds just because you pissed me off' look."

Instead of silence the room erupted in laughter. And I shook my head thinking, damn, even strangers shipped them together. That when you know the chemistry is real, and that they should be together."A-an-and wha- what happen-happened nex-next?" Rebekah struggled to say, appearing breathless from laughing so hard. Luna laughed a little to, closing her eyes, shaking her head. "I asked him to go get the horse, from the barn, you know Danger." Luna said looking at all of us. And we all nodded, myself included. I didn't know 'Danger' the horse personally but I knew what/who she was talking about. So I nodded my head, along with everyone else. "But Klaus being Klaus he still moved forward. So I had to get in front of him and place my hands on his chest. I said please again, and he stopped moving forward, but he still looked angry so I didn't remove my hands, just to be safe. And then he tried to plead with me. He had said come on Luna, now you know I won't bite. At least not that hard, he added. I remember thinking was he asking my permission to go kill everyone in that bar? Would he really do that for me?" It was silent again so Luna continued speaking, since there were no interruptions.

"And I said as much as I would love for you to do that, you can't and besides I have a feeling that we are going to get in trouble and we don't need to be in any more. I wasn't wrong, but I'll tell you about that part later." It was silent again, and I frowned hearing all the yelling and shouting in the other room, hmm probably just the boys being immature again. "So did he get the horse Danger, like you asked him to?" Davina asked her voice muffled in Cami's lap. Luna sighed she was now sitting on the ground, Hayley playing with her long hair. "Yes he did, and I was hesitant to get on it, for a lot of reasons. One reason was because I was scared. I am scared of heights so riding a horse wasn't exactly my favorite activity at first. But he convinced me to get back on, some how."

"How did he do that?" I asked before I could stop myself. It was quiet for a moment and than Luna began. "He told me that he would be right there with me. And I didn't feel secure at all when he said that, his presence could only do so much. I was worried about falling breaking bones, and sore ribs. So I said what if I fall? And he said that I said that I trusted him. We had that conversation a few weeks back. And I said to him that I trusted him. And he said that I wouldn't fall, because he would be holding on to me, tight. He said he would promise not to let me go. I didn't say anything, but a part of me knew that he had already won, and I was going to get on the horse anyway. But another part of me didn't want to accept that. Then he asked me if he has ever broken a promise to me. Which he hasn't, so I did the only thing that seemed right. In the end I decided to get on the horse. Despite how scared I was, I took his hand any way. It took some time to get used to. But in the end I enjoyed riding the horse." Luna said smiling a little at the end. I cleared my throat. Not having used my voice in quite some time. "So umm where did you guys sleep since uhh me and Stefan were occupying you guys' room." I asked curious. I knew for a fact that they didn't step foot inside of those hotels. They were to grungy looking, and strange looking. "In the barn." Luna replied blushing slightly. Hayley nudged Luna a smirk on her face. "Do tell." I noticed that when Luna smirked she looked a little like Hayley.

Rebekah leaned forward and nodded eagerly, her head under her hands, supporting the weight of her face.

"Well we layed out an old blanket, on a couple bales of hay that we stacked. We talked to. I told him how sorry I was for doubting him. I told him all of my doubts ,worries, and fears. And he comforted me by saying that not everyone knows how to ride a horse. And he grabbed my hand-"

"Wait, wait, wait, slow down. Do you mean that you and Klaus were holding hands." Davina said her face still green, but I could still see the excitement on her face. Luna sighed but I could see that she was holding back a smile. "Yes me and Klaus were holding hands. I won't say anything else if I am interrupted again." Luna said and I panicked. No, no I had to know everything, if I was going to get them together. "Anyway I told him that he made everything look effortless and easy. Which is true. He's just so graceful and quick about things. I suppose it helps that he is an artist. And he looked taken back, so I told him that it's okay, that he doesn't have to hold his greatness from everyone-" I couldn't help it I squealed a little. Luna looked at me with an odd expression on her face. Rebekah and Hayley folded their arms, glaring at me. Davina and Cami frowned at me, and I sat sheepishly back feeling slightly ashamed but not completely. "Then he asked me why I thought he was so great." I was surprised that she was still talking but I didn't want to interrupt again. And I told him that he is kind, and protective to the people he cares about. That he won't back down to anyone, to name just a few things. And then I asked him why was he asking me that, after all I've already told them all those things before, I just said it in a different way. It was quiet for a few moments. I remember being self-conscious because the whole time he had been looking at me with an odd expression on his face. Then he had said that he had just wanted to know my opinion. I thanked him again, for the fun night I had. But before I could finish my sentence he grabbed my face and kissed me on the cheek. And as you know I didn't finish my sentence because I was stunned, embarrassed at my reaction among other things that I was thinking and feeling. Anyway he told me not to worry, and he did that thing where he calls me love in this husky voice which wasn't helping my situation at all. But as I was saying he said that all I would have to do is ask and he will take me anywhere, I wanted yo go. And I smiled but as you all know I was tired. He asked me if everything was alright. And I had told him the truth. That I was just tired, that it had been a long day, and I said that tonight was the highlight of my day, since I got to spend it with him. I was basically running on adrenaline and will power. And to be honest I didn't have much of that left. So I layed down on the make shift bed we made and he did to. Except he was facing me, which I didn't have a problem with, it's just hard trying to go to sleep knowing the person beside you can hear you breathe, hear your heartbeat, and any other embarrassing noises when you sleep. But some how I managed/ figured out a way to got to sleep. That was my night, me and Klaus night, our night last night. I told you that it was amazing. Despite all of the interruptions. And I also told you every little detail, now will you please let me get dressed." Luna said and I smiled and got up but was about to leave. Luna had told me every thing I needed to know. Now I just wanted to find and talk to Stefan about last night. Desperately wanting to know if he had regretted last night or if he had hated me. But I halted in my tracks when Rebekah grabbed my arm. Stopping me.

"Oh no love, where do you think your going? We are all girls here, we all have the same parts, despite how different they might be. Luna has to tell us about all those other times her and Klaus have had their little talks and special moments. Besides we have to pick out your clothes, we are going to make you cuter than you already are." Rebekah said and Luna shrunk back in her chair, slightly hiding behind Hayley. Hayley who stood up and held her hands up. "I agree with Rebekah, Luna and besides I am very interested in what conversations you two have had. Do you feel the same, girls?" Hayley asked looking at me, Davina, and Cami. We all three nodded. Hmmm I guess I would find and talk to Stefan later. Oh well, I thought in my head. I walked over to the closet the other girls following behind. Rebekah and Hayley had Luna in their grasp, I'm guessing so she wouldn't be able to run and escape. Nevertheless I opened the large door and started pulling out different articles of clothing, that could be outfit possibilities for Luna. Long sleeved shirts, leggings, jeans, skirts, dresses, etc...

I heard Luna groan when I put the large pile on the bed. I couldn't sympathize with her on this one, I loved clothes, I loved clothes with a passion, and trying them on again and again was kind of my thing. I heard Cami laugh and I did to. Even Davina was up now looking brighter than she did a couple minutes ago. The nausea looked like it was all gone considering the fact that her face was no longer green and sweaty. "Alright Luna it would probably be the best thing if you just started from the beginning of you and Klaus' little conversations." Hayley said and Rebekah smiled widely. Plucking up a lacy pink shirt, throwing it at Luna. I smiled laughing along with everyone else in the room. I didn't know everything but I did know that this vacation how ever long it might be was going to be spectacular.

Ansel Pov

...

Me and the men (Josh, Stefan, Elijah, and Marcel) were sitting in the room. Well me and Josh's room to be precise. We were sharing a room since there hadn't been enough rooms to go around. But I didn't mind. We had separate beds of course, but we seemed to get along just fine. And that was all that I really cared about, getting along with everyone. I didn't want to make any enemies, well any more than I had to. I was just here for Niklaus my son, and his family. I wanted to bond with them, and prove to him, and them how much I cared and also how useful I could be. I wanted to be apart of this family, his family. I wanted to be apart of Niklaus' life, my son's life. As a parent the truth is you can't be around for your children forever, no matter how much you want to be, it's simply just not possible. Well maybe that was the truth for mortals, humans. But that was not the truth for me. I didn't have to ever worry about not having forever because I did. I did have forever to make up for all the birthdays and all of the other important occasions I had missed. I had forever to make it up to him. I had forever to get the chance to be a good father.

Back to a lighter subject we were all waiting for Kol (one of Niklaus brothers, the younger one, the mischievous one) he was supposed to go and fetch Klaus. It was rumored that he was hiding from Kol, because he did not wish to speak with us. Well some of us in the room knew what was going on while others in the room did not. For example those in the room who did not know of Luna and Klaus' secret night out such as Marcel and Josh. A part of me wanted to know all of his night with Luna. All of the conversations they had, and what he had felt. How he feels at this moment in time, with everything going on. I wanted to know all of these things and more. Well mainly because I was his father. But besides being his father I was interested in him and Luna's dynamic. There was something between the two of them, even when they were in there wolf forms. They had something special between them, no one could deny that, only a fool would. I had heard of it before but I wasn't exactly sure if that was the case or not. I decided not to say anything until I was sure though. But if I was right it would explain most things, if not everything. But any ways back to other things, Kol had supposedly teamed up with Rebekah (their sister) who was also tracking down Luna. Who had also been rumored to be in hiding like Klaus. But them working together meant they would most likely get the job down faster. They were better working together than they were working all alone.

"Look who I found under a table." Said a voice and I looked up to see Kol standing there with Klaus, in the door way. Kol's arm was on Klaus' and I noticed that he did not look to happy about that face. "Well that sounds like a cowardly thing to do." Said a voice and some one laughed. Damon I think it was, I felt a little sorry for him, poor guy seemed like he was just having the worst day. He took the seat next to me but I didn't mind, we got along well enough. Klaus didn't even bother to look at Damon most likely because he was to busy glaring at Josh. I know he had heard the laugh, he just wasn't going to address it at this time. Oh this was going to be bad.

Marcel who had been sitting next to Josh moved away, giving him a worried glance. I didn't blame him, I would not want to be any where near that. "I'm sorry Joshua what did you just say about me being a coward. See I was not the only one under that horrid kitchen table. Luna was right there with me. So if your calling me a coward then you are calling her a coward." Klaus said and I shook my head was it really going to get this extreme. Over Luna yes, my conscious answered.

"I mean if we are being technical-" Josh said but Klaus walked up to him and put his hands on the back of his neck. He stopped talking and turned his head to look at Marcel. Marcel who had just gotten up and was standing beside Josh with his hand on Klaus shoulder. It was about time he put a stop to this. "Alright Klaus I think that's enough. Remember Josh is one of the best and loyal people we have left after your father killed the rest of our night walkers and day walkers. And I am sure he realizes what he said is very stupid and he won't ever slip up and say anything or even think anything like that again. Or he is also going to have a problem with me is that understood Josh?" Marcel said looking at Josh. Who nodded and stammered apologies at both Klaus and Marcel. I sat back now relaxed that I didn't have to get up and break up a fight, well at least not yet.

"Well do we all know why were are gathered here today?" Kol said standing in the middle of the room, while every one else was sitting down. Klaus was sitting next to Elijah then it was Marcel and Josh, and then me and Damon, and Stefan was the closest one to to Kol. It was quiet for a moment before Kol sighed clearly getting frustrated with the lack of talking. "Well for those of you who don't know why we are here, we are gathered here today to celebrate the union of two people. My brother Klaus and my good friend Luna."

"Oh my god." Damon said his head in his hands. I looked over at Klaus to see that he was not happy either. He had been glaring at Kol. I noticed that Elijah was sitting back although he had a hand on Klaus' shoulder holding him back most likely from attacking Kol. "Okay Kol please tell us why we are really here because apparently most of us don't already know. And could you please hurry up and do it before your brother rips your heart or liver out." Marcel said and Kol sighed now pacing the room slowly, looking at everyone every few seconds. "Alright then. Well for those of you who don't know Klaus my older brother snuck out with Luna, who is also my good friend." Kol said and Marcel and Josh leaned forward in their seats shocked looks on their faces. I didn't blame them, I was sure I acted the same way when I first heard, but not as drastic as they were being. "You what?" Marcel said turning to Klaus a smile on his face. Klaus shook his head which was by now in his hands already he and Damon were now practically twins in this situation with the way they were acting. Both Damon and Klaus were obviously un-comfortable in this environment, they were both uneasy, and they were also very stressed out. "Yes Kol I snuck her out big deal." Klaus said probably not understanding why everyone was making such a big deal about this. Kol rolled his eyes at Klaus reply, finally sitting down next to Stefan.

"Alright Klaus this is how this is going to work, your going to tell us what happened-" Kol began but he was interrupted although it was not by Klaus or even by Damon but squealing and laughing as I strained my ears more I relaxed. It had only been the girls. Marcel and Stefan must have heard it to because they were shaking their heads chuckling lightly. After the squealing and the laughter had stopped Kol began speaking again, mainly looking at my son, Niklaus. Who had his arms folded over his chest glaring up at his younger half brother. Not seeming very thrilled about the situation he was in at this moment in time.

"As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted by the immature women of this household, Klaus my brother as you all know, is going to tell all of us exactly what happened in detail, and in vivid detail if anything happened." Kol said raising his eye brows up and down, suggestively. Damon must have had his head up, and he must have been listening because he clenched his fist. And Klaus continued to glare at Kol he was now leaning forward his hands on his knees. Elijah joined him shortly. Elijah's hand was back on his shoulder, restraining him for what ever were to happen next. "Brother if I may add the faster you explain what happened. If you do what Kol has asked of you then you will be able to go about your day peacefully, without any interruptions from Kol or any one else on this subject. Then the faster you will be able to escape this room. After all we have plans today." Elijah said gesturing to his watch on his wrist. "And I hate to say it but I am interested to, I can't help it. It's just something about you two, that draws me in." Elijah said his hand off Klaus' shoulder. He to was now leaned forward, interested like the rest of us in the room. Well not so much as Damon. Who now had his face twisted in grimace, he was pinching the bridge of his nose trying to hide it, but that just made it more obvious.

"So let me get this straight. Both you and Rebekah 'hunted'," Klaus said making air quotations with his fingers when he said the word hunted, as was looking at Kol and then all of us. "Me and Luna just because you all wanted to know what happened last night. I mean it can't be that serious. There's no need to threaten any one about this. If you all would like to know then why don't you just ask us. Calmly and collectively, at our own paces is that to much to bloody ask for?" Klaus said he was accompanied with silence and then room erupted in laughter. Of course the only ones who weren't laughing were Damon and Klaus. I just couldn't help it. What he had said was just preposterous, uh sure I could ask him what ever I wanted. I was lucky that he didn't rip my face off, when we were in the same room. What he had said was not entirely true but it just proved the fact that he was hiding something. Him and Luna did not just tell anyone if they asked about them or some thing along those line. Klaus would normally just tell the 'asker' to sod off, (mind you that was on a good day, and there weren't very many of those that went around). Or he would tell the 'asker' that it wasn't any of their business. Or even better he would tell the asker that he was 'busy'. Or sometimes he would say that if we didn't leave we were going to be liver-less, or missing some type of organ in our body. I frowned up when he said some thing like that every time. I noticed that when he was making threats to enemies or even to his siblings he would always say something about organs or bones. Well mainly the heart, liver, kidney, (sometimes even brain), and spine, occasionally the skull. Luna was not like that angry or vindictive. And she did not walk around making threats to every one who asked about her and Klaus. In fact in a way she was the exact opposite of him. Instead of being angry or vindictive she was shy, very shy at that. Her face would go all pinkish, and she would look down at her fee. A tell sign that she was embarrassed. When ever she did this I thought it was rather cute, I often wondered if she did this around Klaus. Then surely he would pick up on it. It was surprising to learn that she had been through so much hell when she was younger. You never really noticed it. Luna was usually very good at hiding things, all except her attraction for Klaus. When she would get all red in the face I wouldn't push her all that much. Since I could basically feel her embarrassment radiating of her and on to me. Then I would change the subject, this was the part that was blocking my theory. They both were actually. Since neither of them could accept their feelings for each other my theory could possibly be wrong. Even with their strong attraction towards each other.

"Yeah right, like I could ever talk to you or even ask about Luna because one day you are threatening me and then the next you are strangling me." Josh said causing every one to laugh, including me. Klaus sighed looking at Josh with a smirk on his face. "Sorry about that young Joshua, it's just you always seem to catch me on a bad day. Or when I am in a mood." Klaus said causing Josh to nod understandingly, but Marcel shook his head clearly not convinced, or it looked like he wasn't. We were all still laughing lightly. "Oh so you mean every day." Marcel said and Klaus rolled his eyes, annoyed. Then the room broke out into to laughter again, this time even Damon let out a few chuckles, before putting his head back in to his hands. Klaus opened his mouth to retort but Marcel spoke first. "I'm sorry man but it's true you won't talk about her at all. Un-less she is bleeding, dying, or has broken bones. Then you talk. But you only talk about how worried you are about her, and then that's it. That is the truth right there. I am pretty sure that they are the only people that you do talk to about your feelings for Luna are Elijah, Rebekah, and Hayley is that right?" Marcel looked at Klaus questioningly. Klaus sighed "Why does every one think I have feelings for her?" Klaus said mostly to himself. Then it happened again the whole room erupted in laughter again, at this point Kol was basically rolling on the floor. Elijah had even joined in, laughing quite loudly if I might add. But I did not laugh this time, I smiled instead. Enjoying the look of horror that was on my son's face. He had did this to himself really. "Well Nikalus I'll put it as simple as I can, because you do." Elijah said causing Klaus to put his head back in his hands. "Listen I don't know what or how to feel right now. Every thing is confusing right now, and complicated not to mention-"

"Hey, hey, hey don't worry big brother that is what we are gathered here today for. We are here to listen to you, and your thoughts, feelings, and ideas. We are here to support you. Through what ever you want to do with Luna. We are here to offer you advice, even if you don't take it and ignore it any way. We are here to give our opinions. Share them, because when we all work together good things always happen. We are here to encourage you. We are here to help you. Now are you going to let us help you, or are you going to go sulk around and not know what to do with these feelings you have." Kol said. And I raised my eye brows, surprised. Klaus' youngest brother Kol was always the one causing trouble and creating mischief. Some times I swore that it was a possibility that he was really the son and child of Loki and not the son and child of Mikeal. But here he was saying something meaningful, trying to reach out to his brother. Usually the only thing that came out of his mouth were foul words, but he had some how managed to surprise me with his little speech. "Kol I think that is one of the nicest things you have ever said to me." Klaus said and Kol smiled. "Well I've been good. And now since I am officially of Santa's naughty list, I think I deserve a present. And only you can provide me with that present brother." Kol said looking at Klaus who was leaning back watching all of us with his eyes wearily.

It was quiet for a while and the Niklaus started talking, talking about last night. Finally talking about himself and Luna, and their conversations that they had together.

"Well we, me and Luna, went in to town, on Danger the horses' back. She was behind me, I figured this was the safest way since she didn't exactly know how to ride a horse. Any way we went in to a bar-" But Niklaus had been interrupted by Josh and Marcel. "Wait wait wait you are telling me that you took Luna to a bar." Josh said a little laugh in his voice.

"Yeah Klaus, very classy," Marcel added placing his leg on top of the other one leaning back like Klaus. "Well there weren't very many options it was either the bar, the two hotels down the street or the supermarket. The bar was the only option I had, and Luna didn't seem to mind. Besides the hot chocolate there was supposed to be amazing, and it was. Well at least in my opinion." Klaus said and the room was silent. "There is always another option, you could have taken her to a picnic, or to a movie..." Damon trailed off and Elijah sighed no longer leaning back he was now sitting up tense like I was. I was readying myself to breakup a fight if possible. If they wanted to fight they would have to do it some where far way from Luna, because it would not be good if she found out. There was a thick tension in the air, as if a big storm was brewing. But a storm was brewing one between Damon and my son Niklaus. Both men fighting over one thing, a girl Luna. I wonder how many times this has happened in the past. Not between Damon and Klaus, but between Klaus and another man.

No one in the room seemed to notice the look Damon was giving Klaus, and no one else seemed to notice the glare Klaus was giving Damon. It was the kind of glare that would give the parents of the children nightmares. The kind of glare that even made me wince.

"Well Damon maybe that idea would have been helpful, and useful. But you haven't been talking to me about Luna or much of any thing really." Klaus said now leaning forward, a glass of bourbon in his hand. I'm guessing that Elijah must have gotten him the glass of bourbon because now he also had his own glass. I suppose the reason Elijah had given it to him was so that he hoped it would calm him slightly down. But from what I could see it wasn't working. "Well I'm sorry Klaus there's just been a lot going on. And I don't really have time for your petty-" Before Damon could finish his sentence I nudged his shoulders not to hard, but it wasn't exactly easy. I don't think my son Niklaus really liked the word petty, because I knew that I didn't like it either. He turned to look at me, anger in his eyes, but I shook my head at him sending him a message stop. But he must have gotten the message but he choose to ignore me as he stood up angrily. Klaus did the same, and so did Elijah, and so did I. "You know how about this idea how about you just stay away from her, before she gets hurt." Damon said now being held back from Klaus by me and his brother Stefan, he had just gotten up just know sensing the peril danger his brother was in. Klaus and Damon were now had the full attention of the entire room. It was quiet and then Klaus laughed moving forward towards Damon. "Ohh I think not. You see Damon this whole cute over protective father thing is really starting to piss me off. I am simply trying to have a good time with her. I would never hurt her." Klaus said stepping forward but not with aggression surprisingly like the first time he had gotten up." Damon scoffed moving forward only to go no where. "Yeah sure that's what they all say. And then she is on the floor hurt and lost because of you." Damon said and Klaus stepped forward again despite Elijah's strength trying to stop him. "I would never abandon her, not if I could help it." Klaus said almost to himself. Damon was silent this time, but he was shaking his head. In anger probably. But Klaus didn't seemed to be affected by it. He just put his head up a little higher. "And like I said in the barn Damon if any thing happened then it happened. And if any thing were to happen in the future you wouldn't be able to stop me. There is nothing and there will be nothing you will be able to do about it."

It happened so quickly that I barely saw it. Damon had some how managed to punch Klaus in the face. And the blow had been hard enough, and Niklaus had not been expecting it so he had fell to the ground. Nearly taking his brother Elijah with him. The room might have been quiet for a moment before if erupted in shouting. Every one was screaming fight, fight. Which was childish in my opinion. Well if Klaus and Damon really had a fight like they wanted them to, only one man would be left standing and breathing. And his name wasn't Damon, it was Niklaus, my son. So I needed to prevent that from happening. Because if Klaus killed Damon then a rift would be between Luna and Klaus forever, and I did not want that. And I know that they didn't want that either.

Just as quick as Klaus went down he came back up. His lip busted wide open, blood dripping down from his lip to his chin, before making it's way to the floor.

"Oh shit," Marcel said breaking the silence his facial expression showed that he was shocked. I also briefly saw Kol nod quickly at Marcel, a sly grin spreading across his slightly pale face. Of course Kol would be the only one of us here excited about a fight between Klaus and Damon, unlike the rest of us who were worrying and preparing for the worst. Stefan sighed saying something about like 'this was bond to happen especially over Luna, I'm quite frankly surprised it didn't happen earlier'. And I found that I couldn't help but agree. I was also surprised that something like this hadn't happened sooner. There had been so many opportunity's. Elijah ran his hands threw his hair, instead of it being slicked back like it usually was it was now touching his forehead. He looked just as stressed out as the rest of us, maybe more. "Okay I can see that I am not wanted, I clearly don't matter so I am just going to go umm yeah I'm just got to leave. I've got plenty of phone calls to make you know.." Josh said trailing off as he walked out of the room, well vamped really. I suppose he didn't want to be in here if something went down, which by the way looked like it was about to happen.

After Josh left there was silence and then there was heavy knocking on the door downstairs. No one turned towards the the door, or even moved towards the knocking sounds. Klaus stepped forward but Elijah put his hand on Klaus' shoulder. Leaning forward and saying something in his ear, what ever he said must have worked because Klaus stepped back, wiping his mouth free of the blood.

"Thank Luna after this. Because she is the only reason why are still standing there breathing." Klaus said and then he walked out of the room. The knocking continued and Damon left to, out the same door Klaus did, but going in the opposite direction.

"Do they think you'll ever be okay, I mean at least until Christmas is over?" Stefan said and Marcel shook his head. And Elijah sighed now the glass of bourbon back in his hands. He downed the rest of the substance and set the glass on a table that was closest to the door, which we were all standing by now. "No in fact if it wasn't for Luna we would have a dead body on our hands."

"So what your saying is that the only thing that is keeping them from fighting, well basically ripping each other apart is Luna." Marcel said and I nodded along with Stefan and Elijah. "Do you think she'll be enough to stop them?" Stefan asked and Marcel shrugged and so did Elijah surprisingly. Even he did not have the answers, and he always had the answer. "Not even Luna can delay the inevitable." I said and Elijah opened the door and we all walked out of it. Down the stairs.

We were all sitting on the couch when Damon came in to the room. A confused expression on his face, as he stopped at the foot of the stairs and shouted Luna's name a good four times.

After a few minutes of waiting the girl's started coming down the stairs, well running more like it. And Luna was in the lead. Her hair was down, but she had a head band placed in front so the hair that was usually in her face wasn't. She was a pair of what looked like black leggings. Paired with short dark brown boots. Combat boots to be specific, so short that they went to the ankle. Usually she wore longer boots, she had once told me that she hated the shorter ones, just because of her personal preference. She wore pale tan colored pants, well jeans really, but they could have possibly been jeggings. Which was a mix between jeans and leggings. (Rebekah had briefed me about all the latest fashions) and unlike every male in the house hold I was very interested in the fabrics and the colors. I didn't know why, I just was. Any way she wore a short dark maroon long sleeved shirt. She was also wearing a dark gray knitted scarf. As I looked closer I could see that she had some shimmery lip-gloss, that was colored a pink color. It went well with the outfit. Luna looked different, but it was a good different. I wondered if Damon would approve of Luna's outfit, and her little applied make-up. I wondered what Klaus would think when he saw her, wondered what his reaction would be. Then Klaus walked in, standing at the bottom of the stairs but on the opposite side Damon was standing. I noticed that he was still bleeding, nut now it was just trickling. He smiled at Luna, and she faltered and that's when I realized what had went wrong.

It had all went so fast that I didn't have time to act. Her foot missed the step and then she tumbled down, down, down...

...

Damon Pov

...

I can not believe that I had just punched him in the face. I didn't think I just acted. I knew I was going to have to pay for it later. I just hoped that Luna wouldn't find out, I didn't want her to be upset with me, even if I was being un-reasonable and un-fair. I knew that was wrong of me to do. But I had been surprised that he didn't just kill him then and there. Maybe I had underestimated him, he most have had to use self restraint, and a lot of it. I wasn't proud of what I had done, I was just disappointed in myself, and the two of them (Luna and Klaus).

I was thinking about all of this when I finally reached the door. I opened it and frowned what would the military be doing out here. There was a duffel bag in his hand. "I am looking for Luna, I have a delivery to make." The man said and I frowned he didn't seem like to much of a threat or possible enemy. "Well alright just come in, I'll go get her. Just stay put." I said and I opened the door to let the man in. There didn't look to be anything dangerous in the duffel bag either.

It seemed odd though, why would he travel all this way. I hadn't seen a car or a truck, but he couldn't have walked all this way. Some thing about him reminded me of San Francisco, but I didn't know why.

I walked away from the 'mail man' and to the bottom of the stairs. I noticed that Ansel, Stefan, Marcel, and Elijah were all sitting on the couch. Looking like they were all in deep thought. But I didn't acknowledge them I had other things to do, besides sit around and gossip. I shouted Luna's name, and she came down within a few minutes. All of the other girls following closely behind her, but she was in the lead. I felt a rush of air behind me. And I turned to see Klaus standing at the bottom of the stairs, not to far away from me. I gritted my teeth, in frustration did he just have to be every where all the time. He smirked at Luna and I resisted the urge to growl, luckily I was strong enough to hold it in. Then something went wrong. I didn't notice it at first but her foot missed a step and so she fell.

No matter how much I wanted to make it to her I didn't, I couldn't. Luckily Klaus had been there. Just like he always was. He caught her, just as her head was about to hit a step that would have surely knocked her out. I walked over there it being to quiet for my liking. So me being me, I decided to interrupt there little staring contest by pulling an unwilling Luna out of Klaus' arms. She looked at me confused. "Luna you have something for you being delivered by military personnel." I said and her eye brows furrowed in confusion along with Klaus', and every one else in the room.

I pointed in the direction the 'mail man' was not wanting to follow since Klaus was there with his hand on her back leading her away, away from me. I sat down on the couch. The same couch where Ansel, Elijah, Stefan, and Marcel had been sitting. True I loved the holidays, but they had just become to stressful for me to enjoy any more. I was stupid to think that all of this blood and drama would be fun. But that's how it was. The drama was fun until you were involved.
