Thank you for the reviews and the favorite-ing!

This is a continuation of the last chapter. Klaus has given Stefan his approval.

Gloria's was as crowded as ever. The band continued to play all night long. Gloria would sing with them for most songs, although Rebekah did see her disappear for time. She assumed that her brother took the witch for a private conversation. Rebekah didn't mind, she was having fun with Stefan Salvatore. He was more daring than usual. As they were dancing Stefan leaned in to kiss her neck, but instead of his lips on her neck she felt his vampire fangs tracing the curve of her neck to her shoulder. Rebekah let out a moan. Stefan chuckled as he gave her a peck on her lips.

Rebekah moved her hand to his neck and pulled Stefan in for a real kiss. She loved how their lips fit together perfectly. Rebekah would never tire of kissing him.

After a while, Stefan pulled back, "your brother is here and I don't want to make him mad."

"Who cares?" Rebekah asked pulling Stefan back to her.

Stefan shook his head. "Come one, let's go get a drink," Stefan pulled Rebekah along. They stopped at the bar for a quick drink before Rebekah pulled Mr. Salvatore back to the dance floor. Rebekah wanted to dance until she dropped. She wasn't reckless like some of the girls her brother danced with, but she knew how to have a good time.

At midnight the music began to slow down. Stefan held Rebekah close as they swayed to the music. Rebekah caught a glimpse of her brother across the dance floor. It looked like he was with the same brunette girl again. She would have to remind herself to ask him what was going with her. She knew that he had never loved anyone but that was because he never stayed with the same woman more than a few days and the ones that lasted that long were special. Rebekah wondered what he saw in her.

Klaus POV

Klaus was surprised on how much he liked the Salvatore boy. Stefan did seem too cocky, but the way he tortured that man with his wife's blood was very enjoyable. Klaus was amused to watch the horror on that man's face. It was a trick that Klaus would probably use in the future. He always did like the gruesome torture.

It was something his older brother, Elijah, would complain about. Elijah preferred ordeals to be handled civilized; always the business man. Klaus saw torture as a quicker way to get results. And he would use it whenever necessary.

Klaus was glad that the witch, Gloria, was cooperating so he wouldn't have to torture her with her friends and family. He just returned from her private office. They talked about the shield the witch had put up around Chicago. Gloria told Klaus that the witches on the other side were not happy that she had done it; they believed that she had messed with nature.

Klaus was glad that the protection spell was working. He was also glad when he received news that Mikael had not been spotted anywhere inside of Chicago. Klaus felt like this was a night to celebrate and relax; his only problem was that he had no one to celebrate with. Rebekah was his only family in Chicago at the moment, and she was off dancing with the Salvatore. As much as he wanted to take her away from Stefan, he couldn't do it. Rebekah was his little sister and much to her disbelief, he was glad to see her happy.

Klaus didn't want to put his happiness aside so he looked around the speakeasy to see you he could celebrate with, even if they were just going to be a drink.

Mariselle.

He spotted the brunette that he had shared company with earlier that night. He walked up to her, and before he could say anything she said, "Hello, Nik. Where have you been?"

The question surprised him. Not many people took an interest into his activities. Perhaps it was just a simple conversation starter.

"Doesn't matter Mariselle. Would you like to dance?" he asked holding out his arm to escort her to the dance floor.

"Only if you buy me a drink first," she said. Mariselle walked over to a table. Klaus decided to follow her for a reason he did not know.

He sat next to the girl at the table and ordered them a round of drinks. Mariselle began to tell him about the charity work she had done earlier that day. She was a part of a group for young ladies that made blankets and other things for the less fortunate.

Klaus wondered if Rebekah would be interested in anything like that. Klaus decided that she probably would be since it had to be better than sitting in their apartment all day. Klaus knew that his sister hated where they lived. She yearned for the evening when she could go out. Maybe now that he thought the border was secure, he should let her have a little more freedom; as long as she stayed inside the boundary.

Klaus wondered where Stefan Salvatore lived. If it was inside Chicago would he have a problem? Rebekah would probably want to spend most of her time there.

"What is your favorite day of the week?" Mariselle randomly asked Klaus.

"What kind of question is that?" Klaus asked.

"I was just wondering. I assume that you are a business man. You must work a lot," Mariselle took a sip of her drink waiting for Klaus's response.

"Sunday," he responded. "It is peaceful at home. It gives me time to paint."

"You paint?" she asked.

"Don't seem so surprised love," Klaus said.

She shook her head, "I am not, and that is very fascinating. I love to learn the small facts about people,"

"Okay, then what is a fascinating fact about me?"

She thought for a moment, "You didn't care to know my name until the very end of our first night together," she said. "Most people learn the names of other when they first meet."

Klaus thought about that and supposed it was true. He planned on killing her and he did not see the need in knowing her name, but then he decided to spare her life. For some reason he wanted to know more about her, so he inquired her name.

The more he thought about he realized that Stefan wanted to know Liam Grant's name. He forgot about this detail earlier not seeing it as having any meaning, but after his talk with Mariselle he expected there to be more behind it. Klaus decided that he would pay a visit to Stefan Salvatore's apartment the next day figure out what it is was.

I hoped you like seeing Klaus's perspective. Next chapter Klaus will be visiting Stefan and learning about the list of names hidden in his closet.
