An: Here's another chapter for you guys. I hope you like it. :*

I wish I could sleep forever, I'm ready to have that talk with Damon, Stefan and Elena. I woke up to Damon snoring lightly next to me, looking calm and peaceful, free of worries. We still had the same clothes on from last night. I left Damon and went to take a shower. I let the hot water cascade down my back and thought about yesterday for while. My mind wandered back to the day I met Klaus. We met at my father's ball to find suitors for me. My brothers had just died or so I thought and Giuseppe was trying to marry me off as fast as he could.
*Flashback to Mystic Falls 1864*
"Maria can you help me get ready?" I called for her as I struggled with my corset.

"Si senorita."She came over and pulled on the strings to make it tighter and helped me into my best dress. It was a dark blue dress with lace all over. She braided the sides of my wavy blond hair and clipped it in the back.

"Senorita, smile the night will be over before you know it."

I smiled but inside I really didn't want to do this, not so soon anyway. But I didn't have a choice in the matter. It was time, I could hear my dad introducing me. I walked down the stairs looking down at my feet, so my clumsy butt wouldn't trip. When I finally looked up, I saw him. He had curly blond hair and mesmerizing eyes. Something was pulling me towards him and before I knew it I was in front of him.

Hi." I said blushing furiously.

"Hello." He bowed down and kissed my hand.

Electricity ran through my whole body but there was another strange feeling. He was was a vampire, an old one too. Even though I knew this, I didn't shy away. We just stood there for a moment and stared. I guess we were both speechless.

"Could everyone follow me to the ballroom for the first dance of the night." said my father from the balcony.

"Will you join me for a dance?"

"Hmm, since you asked so nicely of course but can i get your name first?"

"I'm Niklaus."

And with that we made our way to the ballroom. Why was a vampire of his age here? And why was he interested in me?

"I know what you are." I whispered as we began to waltz. His face was priceless but he quickly composed himself.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"Why?"

"Because we already had a vampire problem and I don't need another one at the moment. Someone else might get killed and I don't want that."

"Vampire problem?"

"Yes there were several vampires around and the town council took it upon themselves to round them up. They put them in the old church and burned it down."

"Was there a Katrina Petrova in that lot?"

"There was a Katherine Pierce but no Katrina Petrova."He began to think "Wait what did she look like?"

"Long curly brown hair, dark brown eyes, olive skin... likes to pit brothers against each other."

"That's her." he said surprised.

By then the dance had finished and I could see people starting approach me to talk and offer condolences.

"Follow me. I know somewhere we can talk so no one can interrupt us."

Before he could say anything, I pulled him along towards my secret meadow. No one knew it was here, it was filled with enchanting creatures. It was my safe haven. My mother would take me here all the time to teach me magic. It was enchanted so only mom and I could come in. Why was I taking him here? From his aura he was dangerous but I wanted him and somehow it seemed he wanted me. I took him to the river and we sat down.

"Where are we? This place is beautiful."

"This is my meadow."

"What are you? You can't be a witch cause I would have known about it. There isn't a Salvatore witch line."

"That's because I'm a hybrid. I'm quarter siren and quarter witch and the rest human."

"How is that even possible?"

"If you stick around, maybe I'll tell you. But first why are you looking for Katherine?"

"She was part of my sacrifice to become half vampire half werewolf and I have no idea why I'm telling you that. I shouldn't even trust you."

"Sorry I think thats my fault, I haven't learned fully how to control the siren part of me."

"You're not going to pull me into this stream and try to drown me right?"

"I don't even think that would be possible Niklaus," I laughed "so know that you know that Katherine's not here. What are you going to do?"

"I guess I'm going to leave and find another doppelganger."

"Oh… I was hoping you would stay a while."

I was a little sad that he was going to leave. I was looking into the water, when he put his finger under my chin and tilted my face up.

"Well maybe I could stay a while"

His face kept getting closer and closer to mine and just when we was about to kiss

"ARABELLE WHERE ARE YOU?"

My dad called out obviously angry.I stood quickly and grabbed his hand

"Come on let's go before my father has a heart attack."

"It sounds like he's right next to us."

"This place is hidden by magic. Only I and whoever I bring in can come in."

We waited for my father to walk away.

"Here I'll get us over to the house." he said and he picked me up and flitted out of the my garden and into the regular garden and just in time too.

"Arabelle there you are.. and with Lord Mikaelson." My dad smirked

"Yeah, I was just showing him around. What's wrong?"

"The guests were leaving." he said curtly to me. Then he turned to Klaus

"I hope she was behaving herself around you lord."

"Yes actually she convinced me to stay here for a while."

"Really now? Well, come on Arabelle you need to say bye to the guests."

He grabbed my arm

"Wait Father, Niklaus why don't you come over tomorrow for lunch and I'll show you around town."

"I can't wait." and with that he kissed my hand and left

* Flashback Over*
I sat in front of my mirror and brushed my hair. It was like it was just yesterday when we met. I blow dried my hair, did my makeup and moved to my closet. I got my ripped skull tank top and my leather pants and put them on. Since my room was soundproof, I couldn't hear anything outside and no one could hear what was going on in my room. When I finally decided to leave, I heard Damon, Stefan and Elena talking. Well... more like yelling.

"What's going on in here?!" I yelled

"Well, Damon here is yelling at Elena because she snuck off to talk to Ester last night with my help." said Stefan while sipping a glass of what looked and smelled like AB positive. I had forgotten all about that.

"Damon, let me handle this. First of all Elena, Klaus is my ex husband, if he should be killed, I will be doing that and second if you're going to make deals with the devil do your research first. You almost got Damon, Stefan and I killed, along with the whole vampire population. Don't forget about what you said to my brother. You're lucky the spirits want you alive or else you would have been dead."

I was now in her face, seething. She had pissed me off and I had only met her yesterday.

"Arabelle, I didn't know."

"Stop trying to play the hero, Elena. Cause one day you'll end up dead. Mind your business or you'll be hearing from me and they won't be able to save you."

I finished and walked into the kitchen and got myself a bag of O Neg.

**Scene change to Mikaelson Mansion**

*Third Person POV*

Everyone moved around the house like nothing happened. Esther was locked in her room trying to figure out why her spell didn't work. Rebekah was with Kol planning on reeking havoc on the was reading and trying to figure out this new world and it's technology. Elijah was walking towards Klaus's room, about the enter it. He wanted to know more about the girl who had saved their lives last night and seemed to capture Klaus's heart. Klaus was sketching in his pad a portrait of Arabelle from last night. He sketched it from his memory, he heard Elijah enter his room.

"Brother, what do you want?" he said clearly agitated.

"Come for a walk with me brother. There is so much we need to discuss about last night and I don't want prying ears to hear."Klaus sighed knowing he had no choice but to go. He put the finishing touches on his drawing and put it in his safe. In there was Arabelle's rings and cuff. He remembered what happened last night.
*Flashback to Last night*

"Niklaus, I'm really not in the mood."

That didn't stop me from grabbing her arm and pulling her towards my room. It was filled with paintings and drawings.

"What did you do rob the Louvre?"

"No, they just weren't on vervain."

"Their mistake, right?" she said laughing with me .It was just like old times.

"So, where did you steal my bracelet from?"

"I stole it from a princess almost as beautiful as you."

She rolled her eyes in an Arabelle fashion and continued to walk around.

"Ara I love you."

"Niklaus, don't you remember you left me. Or do I have to show you?"

"Ara…"

"Don't Ara me, you treated me as a toy and I was stupid enough to believe that you actually loved me. But you are nowhere near capable of love."

She took the rings and the diamond cuff off and threw them on the table.

*Flashback over*

He put them back in and got his jacket knowing he had fucked up. He locked his safe and looked at Elijah.

"Come on I haven't gotten all day."

The wall that had come down went back up. They walked until they came up to a clearing. Klaus remembered it from last night, he also remembered the conversation he had with Arabelle. How was he going to fix this? He would think of that later.

"Who is she brother?"

"She's my wife."

"Care to elaborate?"

Elijah thought to himself how and when did that happened.

"Remember when I left England because I heard that Katrina was in the States."

"Yes but what does that have to do with anything?" Elijah said annoyed he didn't know why but he wanted to know about this girl.

"Will you let me finish brother?"

Elijah just chuckled and nodded."As I was saying, I heard Katrina was here in Mystic Falls. When I got here, she had already disappeared. I was going to leave but Arabelle's father invited me to a ball for his daughter and long story short, we got married."

"So then what happened?"

"Father happened. He sent me a letter that said 'stop running and accept your death. I will always find you'. I didn't want her to get hurt. I loved her. So I packed my stuff up and left her without an explanation. I made her believe I never loved her."

Elijah could see that it was hard for him to talk about this and he would help his brother get her back.

"So how are you going to her get back?"

"I don't know. But I'm going to get her back if its the last thing I do. She's my other half and she makes me feel alive. I will do anything to have what we had again. Nothing's going to stop me from getting what's mine."
