So this is an AU songfic for the song "stealing Cinderella".

Landon POV

I was waiting for my girlfriend's father Klaus Mikealson. I think it must have been obvious why I was there, I mean Hope and I had been together for about two years already and I wanted us to be together forever. I think that's why he left me in the living room of the house. I started to look around and saw a ton of pictures of Hope from when she was little.

One picture was her dressed as Cinderella in a little blue ball gown and her dad was Prince was another it showed her learning to ride a bike with her dad holding the handlebars .Another showed her laughing on a huge bed surrounded by to that was her running in a sprinkler with ice cream on her face. The next was from a few years ago she wore a long red and black ball gown and her dad wore a matching suit. The frame said "daddy's little princess". I knew that Hope while she was close with all her family members, always had a special connection with her dad. It was the whole reason I was here in the first place. I knew Hope would feel better about getting married if she knew that her dad approved.

When I leaned in closer to look at a picture of her at maybe eight at Mardi Gra with her family I heard a British accent say

"My daughter is quite amazing isn't she" he said. His eyes seemed to light up talking about Hope.

"She's the most amazing woman I know," I tell him. Then he just sort of stared at me like I said something profound. His eyes seemed sad almost then I realized. In his eyes Hope would always be his little girl. The one in the photos and having me come into her life was hard for him. He has always been the main man in her life, the center of her world. Then Hope met me and everything changed. I guess he sort of views me as the guy who stole his little princess away.

"So Landon, I know you are here because you love my daughter and you want my permission to marry her" he said

"Yes sir i do" I replied

"Understand I love my daughter more then anything in this world, I would do anything for her. I know that she loves you deeply. I do not think that any man could ever be worthy of her, however, I must admit that you come relatively close. So I will give you permission, but mark my words Landon Kirby if you harm my little girl in any way" I told me with his signature smirk.

"Hope, sweetheart you can come in now" he called and Hope ran in.

"Thank you daddy thank you thank you" she said as she flung her arms around her father. It was then I saw a glimpse of it. Usually Hope was a tough badass fighter, but for a moment I saw the little girl in the pictures. The one who thought her father was her whole world. I guess I can't blame Klaus Mikealson for not liking me since I am the one who stole his little princess.
