Here's the Next chap! I hope you enjoy!-JasZ
They all sit in the front room as the burnt tree… they were too caught up with Klaus trying to plot the murders of all his family. Hope sits down on Saint Nick's lap as Hayley and Elijah take photos. The two year old smile and makes her best innocent expression. Rebekah is trying to sway Freya to use a spell to bring the tree back to 'life'.
Kol is sitting beside Davina whining as Marcel is string to stab Kol with a fork. Davina just glares at the two and tries to ignore them. But of course Kol just voices his thought a tab be louder. Josh snorts as he takes a sip of his hot chocolate.
"Davina answer my questions, darling." Kol whines as Mikael shakes his head and turns to see Hope open her gift from Hayley and Jackson which happens to be the largest gift. It was a wood carved kitchenette.
"What Kol?" Davina snaps.
"Would you still be with me if Tom-"
"Tim." Josh corrects.
"Was alive?" Kol ignores Josh and stares into his beloved's heaven colored eyes.
"He's dead." Davina replies while attempting not to burst into tears. It wasn't right that Klaus rubbed her face with that. Yes she's with Kol and she nearly lost him too. What if she had lost Kol would Klaus be rubbing it in her face? How differently would her life be?
"Yeah, but what if he wasn't?" Kol replies as Hope starts to open the gift from Elijah.
"Why do you care so much about this?" she just wants the topic to be swept under the rug.
Hope pulls out a pretty bubble gum pink dress with silver Mary Jane flats. Elijah was thinking she would wear it for New year's eve. And a good thing too because Hayley had forgotten about it with the madness that comes along with the Mikaelson family.
"Because, I just want to understand where I stand-"
"You are not going to bring anyone back just to prove something Kol." Davina huffs as plots a way to make Klaus pay for what he's brought up. Old emotions for a dead boyfriend and Kol's uncertainly.
"Than answer my question."
"You know the answer, Kol."
"Do I really?"
"Yes, you wanker. She stating that she would be with you!" Rebekah cries from her place from the fire place. She and Rebekah got hold of Kol's gift from Cami. They toss the packets of Condoms into the fire.
"No, she'd be with Tim." Marcel replies. "You see with Tim living. Davina wouldn't have a vendetta against Klaus."
"Yeah, but Dee. Would still be attracted to Kol. I mean the accent is one. And Plus he'd seek her out because well she's a super witch and it would piss you off." Josh mumbles into his mug as his eyes are trained on Hope who opens the gift from Marbekah. It's a frozen bike.
"You're not helping Josh." Marcel glares at his 'son.'
"Yes he is." Kol retorts; Hope starts to tear open the gift from Mikael.
"I mean, that's their goal in life to annoy Klaus and the rest of us with their cutesy couple crap. Like it's my goal to throw that ass in circle."
"How pretty!" Freya stares at the stuffed plush that resembles Bronco, Mikael's boxer.
"You suck, Josh." Marcel growls.
"Yes, I do." Josh retorts without thinking… Kol and Davina give the baby vampire a look and make amends. The silently plot a away to get revenge on Klaus.
It's when the packets that Freya and Rebekah start to burn. The stench of burning rubber fills the room. Klaus growls as Hope screams out in delight when she opens the gift from Freya it's her own necklace. She holds tight onto the stone and extends her hand forward. The toddler without known just made the logs in the fireplace burst. Several pieces scatter about hitting everyone. Josh's shirt is engulfed in flames in seconds. He runs around the room until Klaus hits him with a chair. The baby vampire falls to the ground as the fire still rages… Davina quickly raises her hand to kill the flames.
"Okay sweetheart, we need to lock this away until you're a bit older." Rebekah pries the necklace away from the two year old.
Hope pouts and opens the rest of her gifts… she gets several other gifts from her mother and step father. She got the jeep from her father…which she gets into as soon as she can… she starts to chase Josh with it. The baby vampire is cranky thanks to her setting him on fire. Kol and Davina gave her a charm bracelet with a protect spell on it to keep her safe and they're able to locate her just in case she becomes a rebel like everyone else in the family. They don't know how handy that will come when she becomes a teenager.
Josh and Aiden gave her a book on fairy tales. A book she becomes fond of. As Hayley gets her to take a bath. The Toddler snuggles close to her daddy and fights sleep as everyone sits in the family room watching 'Monster's Inc.' Everyone is gets ready to go home. It was a nice evening…
The next morning Klaus finds the man in his front room a piece of the chair in his chest… Cursing storms up to Rebekah's bedroom… What he sees he wishes to pour boiling oil over his eyes… Elijah rushes out only to have Klaus tell him to keep up the mess from the night before. Elijah sighs and mumbles to himself on the reasons why he never drinks heavily anymore. He just hopes New Year's eve isn't so bad…
There you have it! I hope you enjoyed! Let me know what you think. -JasZ
