It was Friday night, Halloween. Kol and I had officially been together for a week and I couldn't have been happier. We were still in the beginning stage of our relationship, the one where everything is happy and perfect and you want to spend nearly every second of every day together.

However, not everyone was as happy as we were, particularly my parents. They had the same prejudices about the Originals that everyone else seemed to have.

So, to avoid them I had been over to the Mikaelson's nearly everyday so we could spend time together. I didn't see Klaus much; God knows what he was up to. Elijah spent a lot of time up in his room, but he was very polite when I did see him.

As for Rebekah, she and I had actually started to get along. She had even asked to come to my house after school to help me pick out a costume for the Halloween party at the Salvatore's house that evening, and by asked I mean insisted.

"So, which one do you think, sexy bunny, slutty nurse, or," I paused to laugh, "sexy vampire? I mean, I already am a sexy vampire, but I don't think many other people would get it." I smirked, holding up the costume for a second before laying it down next to the others on my bed.

Rebekah snickered. "God, you and Kol are just perfect for each other; you're both so conceited." she rolled her eyes, suppressing a laugh.

I shrugged, before getting back on topic. "Come on fashion police." Rebekah smirked at that. "Help me out here." I urged, being melodramatic and putting my hands together in a pleading way.

She rolled her eyes. "Okay, fine." she muttered. She stood up from the chair she had been sitting in and walked over to me and examined the small collection of costumes on my bed.

"Hmmm, well, I personally wouldn't recommend the bunny one, unless you want to look like one of those tramps from Playboy." she said, picking the bunny costume up by the hanger and tossing it to the side.

"Okay. So, which one now? I'm honestly leaning more towards the vampire one. Everyone does the whole nurse thing; it's pretty cliché I guess." I said, putting my hands on my hips and looking over to Rebekah.

"So is a vampire dressing up as a vampire." she said in a matter-of-fact way, shooting me a slightly condensing look.

I rolled my eyes. "Still, I think I'd look pretty damn great in it." I replied, grinning.

She smirked. "You mean you think Kol will think you look you look great in it."

"Kol's not even going. There's nothing wrong with me just wanting to look good for myself." I insisted defensively, crossing my arms over my chest as I shifted my weight onto my right leg.

She shrugged. "Whatever. If that's what you want then go for it."

I sighed and picked all three costumes up by their hangers. I put the bunny and the nurse ones in the back of my closet and hung the vampire one on the handle of my closet door. The vampire costume was basically just red and lingerie with a hood and some fake vampire fangs, not that I would need the fangs of course.

I sensed someone else enter the room. I turned around and saw Kol standing in the doorway. We both smiled before I ran over to him with my vampire speed and hugged him tightly.

Since he was taller than me, my head was just below his chin; I was at the level where I could hear his heart beating.I pulled back and looked up into his eyes, still smiling. He bent down and kissed me.

Rebekah cleared her throat, being dramatic. "I guess I'll leave now since you two are going to start doing that." she muttered.

Kol pulled away and rolled his eyes. "You do that, Rebekah." he replied, glancing over to her.

She turned and walked to the door. "See you later. Have fun snogging my brother." she said sourly.

I smirked, looking around Kol to look at her. "Oh trust me, I will." I replied, suppressing a giggle.

She groaned in disgust before leaving the room, closing the door behind her. I looked back to Kol, smirking before we locked lips again.

Needless to say, we were getting really into the kissing before someone called from the other room. "Door!" It was, obviously, my father. I groaned before I unwillingly pulled away from Kol. I walked over to the door and cracked it open by about a foot.

I turned back to a fairly disappointed Kol. "Sorry. Overprotective parents, you know." I shrugged.

He nodded. "So, you're going as a vampire for Halloween?" he asked, smirking.

I laughed. "I like being ironic." I replied, shrugging. I sat down on the edge of my bed, patting the spot next to me.

Kol walked over and sat down by me. "I would go with you, but high schools parties aren't really my scene." he said.

I laughed. "You prefer dark allies and cemeteries, right?" I asked, jokingly.

He laughed. "Sure, something like that." he replied, putting an arm around my waist and pulling me closer to him. "Besides, I'm busy tonight." he said. Something in his voice made me think that he wasn't telling me everything.

I knit my eyebrows together. "Busy with what?" I questioned, narrowing my eyes a little.

He shook his head. "I'm just doing something with Klaus. You don't need to worry about it." he urged. His tone was even; I couldn't find any hint of a lie. Being a good liar myself it was fairly easy for me to tell when someone wasn't being honest with me.

I sighed. "If you say so." I replied, shrugging my shoulders nonchalantly.

Kol pulled his arm back and stood up to leave. He turned to me. "I'll see you tomorrow, darling." he said, smiling at me.

I smiled back and stood up. I kissed him lightly on the lips for a second before pulling back. "Bye." I said quietly, smiling.

He smiled before turning around and walking out.

I walked into the Salvatore house, which was already crawling with soon to be drunk teenagers. It was just like any other high school party; it had red cups, cheap beer, bad music, the works.

I found Bonnie and Jeremy a few seconds later. I laughed when I saw their couple costume: Ron and Hermione from Harry Potter. They were both dressed in Hogwarts robes and Jeremy was wearing a red-haired wig.

I laughed. "Wow, you guys look great!" I exclaimed.

They laughed in return. "It was Bonnie's idea." Jeremy insisted, chuckling.

Bonnie rolled her eyes at him. "Sure, sure." she muttered, turning to Jeremy before turning back to face me. "I see you went for a cliché too." she said, looking over my costume.

I laughed. "What can I say? I make a fabulous vampire." I replied, smirking.

Caroline walked over to us wearing a Tinkerbell costume. She sat her drink down and crossed her arms over her chest, glaring at me. "So Juliet, where's your Original boy-toy?" she asked, tilting her head to the side slightly. Her voice was a little slurred, drunk.

I mimicked her position. "I could ask you the same question." I snapped, smirking.

She rolled her eyes. "Seriously?" she muttered in her usual way. "There is nothing going on between me and Klaus." she insisted.

Being the stubborn, relentless person I am, I continued to press the subject. "Oh really? Are you sure about that, Caroline?" I pressed.

She scoffed. "Um, yes. I think I would know if I were hooking up with Klaus. That is what you're implying, right?"" she spat, rolling her eyes.

I laughed. "No actually. All I am implying is that you feel something for him. You came up with that colorful little scenario all on your own." I said, grinning and stepping closer go her.

She seemed a little taken aback, but she quickly replied. "I don't feel anything towards him except annoyance." she said cooly. She took a step forward, trying to intimidate me.

"Caroline," Bonnie urged, trying to get her to back off.

I scoffed. "Liar."

"I'm not like you, Juliet. You see, I'm not so lonely and desperate that I'll just go for any guy that's interested in me. I have standards and I don't date monsters." she snapped, sneering.

I growled, clenching my fists so tightly they were white. I knew that she wanted me to react, so I tried to act like it didn't bother me. "Fuck off, Caroline." I muttered.

I turned around and walked away as fast as i could, snatching a drink as I went. I downed it in a matter of seconds and grabbed another.

After 4 or 5 drinks, I decided to look for someone to feed on. I settled on a girl who was dressed as a zombie. I walked over to her and looked into her eyes, compelling her. "Don't ask questions, just come with me." I told her.

The girl did as she was told and followed me. I walked until we reached an empty hallway. I looked into her eyes and compelled her again. "Don't scream, don't move." I said before I bit into her neck with my fangs, draining some of the blood from her body.

When I was done, I pulled back, fed her some of my blood and compelled her again. "Forget that I fed on you and leave.". She quickly walked away back to the party, not remembering a thing.

I wiped some leftover blood from my mouth with the back of my hand. I was really upset by what Caroline had said; I couldn't stop thinking about it.

It wasn't just her, it was everyone. It seemed like everyone didn't like that I was with Kol because of who he was, because of the things he had done.

I didn't care that he had and continued to kill people. I didn't care that he could be aggressive, rude, and even psychopathic at times. I didn't care about his faults because I had faults too. He wasn't perfect and neither was I. I was in no position to judge him, and I didn't.

The only thing that mattered to me was that Kol made me happy. He seemed to understand me and I felt like I could be myself around him. When I was with him I felt free.

I decided that I wouldn't let what Caroline or anyone else said affect my feelings for Kol. I really liked him and I wouldn't let anyone try to make me feel otherwise.

So, I stayed a while longer, ignoring drunk Caroline of course, and just tried to have a good time. When the party ended, I walked home with my head held high, trying not to think about the major hangover I'd have the next day or the lecture I'd be getting from my parents.

A.N.- I would like to start off by saying that I love Caroline and I don't think shes a bitch or anything; you'll find out why she was acting like that (other than the fact that she was drunk).

Anyway, I wanted this chapter to kind of show how everyone seems to feel about Juliet being with Kol. I'm sorry if it was short. :/ I'm on Summer Break now so I'll be able to update more often and I'll try to make longer chapters. On a side note, I've been rewatching the old seasons of TVD and I got my sister hooked on it now ;D

I really want to know what you all think, so please review! It would mean a lot to me. I love getting feedback!
