This Chap is dedicated to Shilocoulter.

Kol is about ready to sock Marcel in the face. He can see why Marcel was saying what he was to him. but he has every right to be there. He was the father of the baby girl that was being passed about like a bottle of aged scotch that Elijah has hidden in his bedroom.

A little cry fills the room when the baby is in the arms of Cami. Kol is there peering at the little red faced girl with dark locks. Hope is bouncing beside Cami trying to peek at her cousin. Mama Gerard pucks the baby from the blonds arms and rocks her slightly as she places her in your arms.

Kol can't help but stare at the creature he helped create. How helpless she is and how beautiful she appears. He knows that he'll have to keep his trusty bat within arm's reach for all the boys will be chasing after his baby girl.

"Have you thought of any names?" Kaleb questions as he wraps his arms around Davina.

"Some." You reply as Kol eyes you with his milk chocolate orbs.

"You gonna tell us or are we gonna have to wait? Because if you want I'll name her Mega-"Josh starts only to get whacked upside the head by Rebekah.

"Krista comes to mind." You mumble while glancing down at that baby girl who still seems to be staring at her mother. "Do you like that name Krista?"

"It sounds lovely." Kaleb smiles at his best friend only to earn a dirty look from Kol.

"I agree." Davina smiles as she peers at the baby. "Krissy."

"Krista Elizabeth…" You mumble as Kol sees his daughter stare intently at him.

"What last name is she going to have?" Aiden questions while snapping some photos even after you yelled at him.

"Mikaelson." Kol interrupts causing everyone to turn to him.

"Excuse you?" You snap. "You-"

"No child of mine will be unclaimed." Kol retorts causing everyone to eye him.

"That's not-"

"Darling," You flintch at the endearment. "I was a prick months ago. But now, I want to be there for my girl."

"He doesn't want to pay child support." Josh mumbles to Davina who nods.

"I want to be part of her life… If you give me the chance to be there for her and for you…"

"How do we know you won't toss her aside?" Cami questions as Vincent takes a pick of the mother and daughter to show Eva who is still in cross the seas on a business trip.

"Because I don't want to have her walk into the arms of a prat like myself when she gets older."

"Maybe-"

"Guys, can I talk to the prick?" No one moves. "Alone."

"By Krissy, Aunti Davi and Uncle Kal will spoil you with love and toys!" Davina whispers to the baby and Kaleb nods and they are the first to walk out. The others walk out.

"Do you want to carry her?" You question.

"You're going to let me?"

"She's your daughter, Kol… You seem determined to be in her life." You reply as you offer the six pound baby girl to her father.

Kol carefully takes the baby into his arms… He's never held someone so tiny in his arms before. Hope doesn't count she was at least a year old when he returned from his trip overseas. This… this feels so right and wrong… How could someone so innocent be related to him.

Kol holds his daughter in his arms. Looking down he silently vows to do right by her… to mend the damage he has down to her mother. To protect her and love her. Nothing will harm her as long as he's in the picture. He hears several clicks and sees Aiden at the door way snapping photos from his camera. He shakes his head, he'll have to tell Krista of her aunts and Uncles dressing up like Dr Seuss characters and rushing to the hospital in that state. And staying there until she was born and how the other people teased them about it.

"Daddy is here for you Krissy." He whispers as he leans down to kiss the baby girl on her forehead. As he pulls away he sees her staring at him with wonder. "Daddy is here to stay."
