Chapter Nine: Black and Red rose
April slowly opened up her eyes. She looked at the clock on the wall. It was two-thirty in the morning. She stood up from the bed and walked down the stairs. The mansion was completely dark. She made her way to the kitchen when she felt a sudden hunger on her throat. She opened up the refrigerator hoping to see a blood in a bottle. Sadly for her, there was no blood in a bottle or blood bag. She groaned softly. Her thirst grew stronger and stronger. She slammed the refrigerator door lightly.
"Are you going to pay up if the fridge spoils?" Stood next to the fridge was Klaus. April was shocked and scared at the same time. She shook her head. Klaus looked at her and smirks at her reaction when she saw him.
"What are you looking for, little one?" Klaus asked politely.
"I need to quench my thirst. Do you keep blood bags?" April replied. Her blood flowed faster than usual. Klaus looked at her and chuckled.
"No April Darling, we do not have any blood bag but there is a tub of ice-cream in the fridge." April opened up the freezer and took out the Ben n Jerry's ice-cream. She took the spoon and sat down on the stool. Klaus decided to accompany her. He sat next to her and watched her ate the ice-cream.
"You don't have to accompany me. I'm fine by myself." April said as she put the spoon filled with ice-cream inside her mouth.
"What do you exactly feel about my brother?" Klaus asked and smirked. April almost chocked on the ice-cream when Klaus asked her that question. She gave Klaus a glance and down to the ice-cream.
"I don't know what I feel and that is the truth. I'm not hungry anymore. I think I shall go up to my room." She stood up and kept the ice-cream in the fridge. Klaus stood up and blocked her way out.
"I'm still kind of pissed off at you for undaggering Rebekah but I get over it and now. Now that my brother fancies you, better treat him well or I won't have any doubt to kill a baby vampire like you." Klaus said as he looked at April's expression. He stepped away and let April walked. April vampire speed upstairs and entered the room and locked the door. When she turned around, she saw Kol lying down on the bed. She realized that she was in the wrong room. Instead of her room, she is in Kol's room. As she was about to leave the room, she felt a gripped on her wrist.
"What are you doing in my room, love?" Kol spun April to face him.
"Sorry, I got into the wrong room." She replied as she tried to catch her breath.
"That is alright. Now what brings you here? I mean, who are you escaping from?" Kol tilted his head to look at April.
"I'm hungry actually. Went down to the kitchen but there is nothing for me to eat." April replied with her calm voice.
"And you decide to come up here and eat me?" Kol teased her.
"No. I am so hungry right now. Would you like to take me on a hunt like now?" April looked at him as her throat burnt with hunger. The desire to kill was already embracing April. Kol smiled.
"I would love to April but who would still be up at this timing to be our victim?" He looked at her and left a little laughter.
"I have an idea." April pressed her lips together at the end of her sentence.
"Share it with me dear." He looked into her eyes and pulled her closer to him.
"Why don't you take me to the hospital, we can take all the almost dying people's soul." April looked at him and smiled slightly.
"That is very good idea but I still prefer you taking a fresh and healthy human blood. For now..." Kol bite his wrist. "Drink from me. It will help to quench your thirst." He ended up his sentence with a dashing smirk. April took his wrist and sank her fangs into it. Kol leaned April's head onto his chest as he sat down with her on his bed. He stroked her hair lovingly. April pulled out her fangs and wiped off his wound.
"Thank you." April thanked him as Kol wiped off her mouth. Kol just gave April his ravishing smile. Now that he had already shared his blood with April, he knew that her feelings will heighten even more. April was weakened by his smile.
"I can't go back to sleep. Would you like to accompany me?" April broke the few seconds' silence.
"Anything for you, April." Kol placed his palm on April's cheek. April took his hand and put it down softly. "So what do you want to do?" He added as he looked down on her hand that was still in placed on top of his.
"Why don't you share with me about your past? " April looked at him. She did not realize that her hand is still placed on top of Kol's hand.
"My past? Of course. I would love to share it with you and at the same time, I could recall back those memories." Kol smirked.
Chapter Ten: His Story {part 1}
"Where shall I begin my story? What do you want to know? Just ask me and I will answer it honestly." Kol looked at April whose eyes were locked at his.
"Begin with your human life, maybe?" April blinked and looked away from his eyes. Kol inhaled before he began the story.
"My human life... it is hard to believe but I am the kind of boy who always hides behind his brother back. I am not like what you see right now. I always hide behind Finn. I'm that mummy and daddy's little boy. I had a little brother but he died due to werewolf attack. It was all Nik's fault. I also had a brother who was born before me. His name was Aaron Mikaelson. Unfortunately, he died at the age of five and a month later, I was born." Kol's expression was unreadable. He then looked at April who was really into the story. April didn't expect his human life to turn out that way. She imagined him as who is he right now. She smiled slightly and asked him the next question.
"Do you have any love interest in the past? I mean before or after you became a vampire?" She didn't expect that question to be coming out of her mouth. She looked at Kol and tried her best to smile innocently. Kol sighed and looked at April. He didn't want to share the story with her but he thought it was a good start for him and his progeny to bond together.
"I did have one in the past. She was a witch and a vampire. She is the only witch that could do magic even when became a vampire. Her name was Nikolina Maria. My siblings called her Kolina and I prefer to call her Maria. Our relationship lasted quite long. It lasted from the tenth century until fifteenth century. During the fifteenth century, there was a war between witches and vampires. In order to protect me, Maria made me forget her and told me to run as far as possible. Unfortunately, she died. A vampire killed her when she tried to look for a place to hide." Kol looked at April with his gloomy look. April felt sympathized. She thought that she should stop asking him question already. She looked down as she made the thought.
"What is wrong, love?" Kol lifted up her chin with his finger.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked you that question." April replied with an upset tone. Kol smiled and placed his hand on her cheek. He then leaned forward and left a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"That is alright. Now, you are the one that coloured up my dull life." He smiled at the end of his sentence. April stood up from bed. She walked towards the balcony in Kol's room. She was amused with how beautiful the night was. Kol vampire speeds behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him. He nuzzled his nose into her hair.
"Isn't it a beautiful night, darling?" Kol muttered. April's feelings began to heighten. Kol brushed lovingly his fingers along April's hand. April tried to breathe evenly. She began to get adrenaline rush. Kol started to press his lips behind her ears and down to neck.
"Kol, please don't do this." April begged him. Kol ignored her begging and continue kissing her neck. April can't take it anymore. She pinned Kol to the wall and gazed at him. Kol put on his devilish smirk and pinned her to the wall.
"Not on me, love. I am way stronger than you." He leaned closer. Their lips were inches away. April was hoping that his lip is locked onto hers. She then managed to free herself and walked passed Kol. Kol's gripped wasn't hard enough. Kol took her hand and spun her to him.
"Since we have nothing to do and I can't listen to your history since you are just sixteen years old, why don't you accompany me play Xbox." He looked at her and smirked.
"Since when you do you started playing Xbox?" April asked him as she arched her eyebrow.
"Are you judging me, April?" He asked.
"No. I am not judging you, Kol. I asked you. Well you have been inside the coffin for over centuries and you know about all these modern technology. It surprised me. About your offer, I'll accept it." April replied with confidence. That was the first time she became herself.
"Oh you have no idea how good I am in all those things. Great! Maker and progeny bonding session. I love it." He replied with a smile as he released her from his gripped.
"Maybe you should continue telling me your history while playing games?" April asked. She realized the way she spoke to him was much more confident. Kol nodded as he turned on the TV and the Xbox kit. He passed her one of the controller and sat on the bed.
"Come April, sit next to me. I won't bite." Kol left a space for her to sit. He smirked as he said the word bite. April sat next to him. Kol's eyes were fixed on the screen. There was a long silence between the two of them.
"What else do you want to know, my dear little April." He broke the silence and left a devious smirk on his face.
"Why do you hate Elena and her friends so much?" Her voice cracked at the end of the sentence.
"Well it is a long story. But I shall tell you no matter how long it is as long you don't fall asleep, little one." He looked at April and admired her beauty for seconds. He then shifted his eyes back on to the television.
