Welcome to my humble home

"What am I going to say to him? What will he think of me? Does he hate me? Why did I let you talk me into this?" Katherine whined to Caroline that morning while Caroline packed clothing and rolled her eyes, scoffed, and mumbled short answers.

"Kat. You're going to be fine. It will be like living with me but in a bigger place. You won't even have to look at them if you don't want to." Caroline assured. Katherine took in a shaky breath but nodded. Caroline hadn't even sat down after finishing packing when the doorbell rang.

"Couldn't you at least let me sit down?" Caroline complained as she opened the door to none other than Klaus mikealson.

"My siblings hate waiting. They are in the limo. Come on Katerina. Klaus said as he put his finger under Katherine's chin. Katherine stiffened up, a look of fear crossing her face. Klaus was pushed away and nearly tripped by Caroline.

"Thanks Care." Katherine muttered genuinely as she walked to the car and set her bags in the truck, Caroline following her lead. Elijah sat on the far end of the limo. Next to him was Kol, then Katherine. On the other far end were Rebekah, Klaus, and facing Katherine was Caroline. Katherine gave a warm smile to her blonde friend that everyone was curious about.

"Did you die and become Elena Miss Sunshine, smiles, and all rainbows and unicorns?" Kol asked awkwardly. Katherine stiffened up and a cold look crossed her face. Caroline simply glared at Kol. Klaus gave a light (Not so light… At all) kick in kols direction that Caroline praised him for by giving a slight smile of appreciation.

"I didn't think you would come with us Katerina." Elijah stated, breaking the everlasting silence that had overcome them.

"I didn't much have a choice, did I? It was run for the next eternity, come here willingly, or come here unwillingly." Katherine responded. Elijah looked down and opened his mouth to speak, but closed it. Caroline had looked up for a second to listen to the exchange. She quickly looked back down to her phone. A few minutes passed by of silence and Caroline couldn't take it. She clicked a few buttons on her phone and Katherine's phone beeped. On the phone was a picture of a baby kitten trying to look angry?

'Totally you. Cute on the outside, deadly on the inside. –C' Katherine rolled her eyes but let out a giggle. Everyone turned their attention to the giggling blonde and brunette. Everyone was looking at her like she was possessed. She turned her attention from her phone and a frown crossed her face.

"Sorry. But this is so CUTE!" Katherine squealed. Everyone looked horrified at her and she showed them the picture and text.

"Wrong doppelganger. I told you, guys." Kol said with a head shake. Katherine glared at him coldly but got back to her phone. About 15 hours of this exchange went on and on, until finally they arrived at the mikealson manner.

"Well. It's nice I suppose." Katherine shrugged off the beauty that was the mikealson mansion as she got out of the car, looped her arm through Caroline's, and strolled into the house. When everyone was inside Katherine whipped around.

"Where is our bedroom?" Katherine asked politely.

"I would be happy to lead you there." Elijah said with a curt nod.

"Thank you." Katherine said. Katherine and Caroline followed after Elijah. Geez, for a man who just spent 15 hours in the car he could move fast!

"Miss Forbes, may I have a minute alone with Miss Pierce?" Elijah asked at the door, facing Katherine. Caroline looked worriedly at Katherine, but Katherine gave a nod of reassurance. Caroline swiftly walked into her bedroom, leaving her friend alone.

"Yes?" Katherine asked innocently.

"Why? Why did you…. Leave?" Elijah asked hurt. Katherine gave a sigh. She hated seeing that hurt, saddened look on his perfect face, with his perfect hair she just wanted to kiss him. Ugh! What was she saying? She couldn't show weakness and give in so easily like that!

"It's complicated. I….don't really know. Instinct I guess. I didn't want to get hurt." Katherine said quietly. Elijah stepped close to her and cupped her face so she looked at him.

"Why would you think I would her you and our child?" Elijah asked, looking like he had been kicked while he was down.

"Because, Elijah! That's what you do! That's what WE do! We get together as a fling, we are happy, we love each other, and when we hit a tiny rough patch you run away. I've been through that too many times. I didn't feel like repeating it for an eternity so I left. You probably don't understand and I'm sorry I can provide you with an answer you find valid but THAT'S the truth. Take it or leave it you are who you are and I am who I am. It probably wasn't fair to you to take away the option of knowing your first and possibly only child and that was my mistake but I did what I felt was right and I acted on impulse. I'm sorry but I was following the example of a person I once knew and putting my family first." Katherine finished. Elijah looked down sadly and sucked in a breath, but Katherine wasn't going to cave just yet. Revenge was bad. Nobody likes a taste of their own medicine. She didn't like how she put it, that was a low blow but he needed to hear it.

"I'm sorry for interrupting you're night. Welcome to my humble home and I hope you enjoy your stay." Elijah said, and with that he walked out. Katherine walked slowly into her room. When she stepped through the door frame she was immediately met with Caroline hugging her.

"I'm sorry Kat. I am so, so, sorry." Caroline whispered.

"I know." Katherine whispered back.

"Remember- remember what always cheers us up?" Caroline asked. A soft smile spread over Katherine's face as she giggled lightly.

"Movie night. Movie night and grandma makeup." Caroline and Katherine giggled.

"You have practiced the art for 500 years so… you find popcorn, I will find the movie cabinet and after words we will unpack. Tomorrow we can go shopping." Caroline said, finally having faith of cheering Katherine up. They each descended the stairs and wet opposite directions.

Hey! Sorry this chapter was so short but it was mostly filler. I wanted to get some perspective on the Katholine friendship and for that the characters had to be a bit OOC. For that I am so, so sorry and I will try t make it up to you. There will be a lot of chapters and I'm not going to make a chapter for every day of 9 months, there will almost definitely be time jumps. Most of the time jumps I will keep short though somewhere between 1 week and 1 month. I might have some trouble with kalijah… seriously! They are like jenga! You build their love tower up and then they have one hair out of place and they crumble down! It is like they are doomed! I really would also enjoy hearing what you guys want. Should I involve Stefan and bonnie? Should klaroline have a kid too? Should Katherine's baby be…?

Boy
twin boy's
girls
twin girl's
twins. One boy one girl
triplets, quadruplets, or quintuplets? I am guessing not that because Kat' not really the 'maternal' type so she might be struggling with one or two babies! Also….. If you do tell me which gender/genders you want I would love some name ideas! I stink with names. Seriously if I have to choose it will be a crazy name. You wouldn't be able to pronounce it unless you had a voice recording or something so I hope I have some ideas. I would love to hear everything you think about the story so far! Happy birthday!
