Katherine slowly opened her eyes, sunshine was lighting her bedroom. She was holding the napkin that she took in Elijah's jacket pocket Saturday night; she took a deep breath to smell his perfume that she loved so much. She turned around on the bed and grabbed her phone on the nightstand, she smile widely when she saw that she had a new text from him. "Good morning princess, I can't wait to see you. Ps: I just found out that one of my napkin were missing, do you know anything about that? Kisses." Katherine squeezed her phone and moved inconsistently her legs in happiness before to stop instantly and coughed realizing that she was acting like a teenager; she tried to stay calm while she was answering to his text. "Good morning! Your texts always make my mornings better! Only two hours left… Ps: I'll keep it until you give me one of your shirt" She quickly got up and walked into the shower, she allowed herself an intimate moment thinking of him. She went out and quickly put on an outfit for work, letting her long curls flowing on her back and shoulders. One hour later she was in the taxi. Her eyes widely opened when she looked up at the huge building. Fuck! His company must be so important; she wasn't feeling good about her lawyer job here now. She swallowed hard before to courageously pass the door, she looked slowly around her, a lot of people all in suit were in phone or looking in their papers and it was only the entrance of this. She saw Elijah away, he was talking to a tall blond girl, and he seemed really serious. He suddenly turned his hand and saw her; he instantly stopped his conversation and started to walk toward quickly with a huge smile on his lips. She timidly smiled back at him.

When he reached her, Elijah quickly grabbed her chin between two fingers and kissed her sweetly.

Katherine kissed him back in surprised, before to pull him a bit away. "Elijah, what are you doing?" She quickly looked around her, hoping nobody has saw them.

Elijah frowned. "What? I'm not allowed to kiss my…" He stopped his sentence and coughed loudly. He was about to call her his girlfriend. And he realized that he had no idea what they really were. He slowly put his hand on her arm. "It's ok. Right now, I share a moment with Katherine and later my lawyer Miss Pierce will arrives." He smiled lightly.

Katherine faked to haven't notice what he said, he was apparently as lost as her about what they really were to each other. She nodded and tried to calm her down. "Ok… Well, then I want to do something to Elijah." She smiled and lift up her arms to encircling his neck with her arms and passed her hands through his hair, she brought his head closer to hers, and kissed passionately like she had been dreaming to do it since Saturday night.

He kissed her back as passionately, smiling against her lips. He slowly stroked his nose against hers and kissed her lips one last time, he whispered. "I think it's time for Miss Pierce to shows up."

She nodded smiling too. She pushed herself away from him slowly and took a serious look which gave a smile to Elijah. "So, could you please make me visit the important parts of this incredulous huge building?"

He nodded and showed her the elevator with his hand. "Sure, let's go." They went in the elevator which was full of busy people. They were really closed to each other. Elijah brought his mouth close to her ear and whispered. "I think you must be aware of that… You will meet my family at the same time."

Katherine gave him a worried look. WHAT?! She didn't know much about his family but they didn't seem really nice. "Elijah, I'm not sure it's the good time for that!"

He shook his head and grabbed her hand to make her feel more comfortable. "It's ok, for today they will only know you as the new lawyer of the company. Don't worry." He smiled kindly, trying to make her feel better.

She squeezed his hand and bit her bottom lips, she was really stressed. When Elijah got out of the elevator she followed him and let go his hand. He looked quickly around looking for someone and then put his hand on her lower back to show her where to go. He young man was talking to a little brunette, and they didn't seem to talk about work. Elijah coughed to call him and the man turned around and faced them. I was tall, a bit less than Elijah but still taller than her. He had messy brown hair and dark playful eyes. Katherine saw his gaze go up and down on her body; a smirk appeared on his lips. He gave up his discussion and came toward them; he suddenly grabbed Katherine's hand a let a sweet kiss on it. "Hello, you must be Miss Pierce our new lawyer, right?" Katherine nodded once and spluttered. "Yes… Yes, it's me." She looked up at Elijah lost, he was giving evil eyes to the man.

Elijah took a hard voice. "Kol. Good morning, I haven't seen you yet, this morning." He grabbed his hand to shake it to force to step away from Katherine with a fake smile on his face.

Kol looked up at Elijah and gave him back a fake smile. "Come on Brother, no need to be ceremonious with me." Kol eyed Katherine, she was exactly what Elijah loved. He was forced to admit it; his brother had really good taste on women. He smiled once again at Katherine. "I'm waiting to see you again Miss Pierce, no if you can excuse me." He winked at Katherine gave a dark smirk to Elijah before to walk away.

Katherine stayed speechless, staring at him while he was walking away. "Is you whole family like that?" She turned her head and looked up at him.

Elijah laughed softly. "Unfortunately, no. It would be easier if they were all like him" He look down at her slowly caressed her back, he kissed her head quickly. "Let's go, the hard part is coming."

They started to walk again in silence until they reached a big office in glasses, two person where talking in. They were older, a man and a woman both blond. Elijah knocked at the door and walked in without waiting for an answer. The two persons turned to face them; they stared at Katherine weirdly which make her feels uncomfortable.

Elijah finally brook the silence and introduce them, pointing at each one of them. "This is Mikael and Ester Mikaelson. Esther directs the artistic part of the company and Mikael helps me at the directive of the company." He came closer to her and whispered. "They are also my parents…"

Katherine swallowed at his last words; she gave her hand to them with a professional smile. "I'm Katherine Pierce, nice to meet you." She shook their hands.

Esther gave Katherine a fake smile and shook back her hand. "You are our new lawyer, right?" She looked at Katherine up and down. "You're young… Do you have any experience in this?" Esther raised her eyebrows.

Elijah directly answered for Katherine. "Yes, she is young but she has also won all of her trial and she is the best graduate of the college she went in."

Mikael rolled his eyes up. "Anyway, if the company has trouble because of her, everything will be on your back, Elijah." He looked up at his son with stern look before to get out of the room, Esther following him.

Katherine and Elijah stayed silence for a while. "I'm sorry." Whispered Elijah. "I should have warned you about how they were."

Katherine shook her head. "It's ok, I got worst!" She smiled smoothing at him. "Don't you have something to show me? Please."

Elijah smiled back at her before to put a strand of her hair behind her ear. They took the elevator again until the reach the top floor; the walked in a huge office, Katherine assumed it was Elijah's office. Once Katherine was in, Elijah closed the door behind them and quickly grabbed Katherine by her hips, bringing her body against his own.

Katherine laughed at his move and wrapped her arms around his neck; she dropped many sweet kisses on his lips, smiling. Enjoying the intimacy of the room where they were.

Elijah kissed her back before to whispered, sorry. "I'm really sorry about my parents… And my brother."

Katherine's finger moved to his mouth, she stroked lightly his lips with her thumb "It's ok Elijah. I just have to prove to your parents that I'm a good lawyer and make understand to your brother that nothing will happen between him and me, since I kind of have someone else."

Elijah stared at her fingers moving on his face, and kissed slowly her thumb. He brought his mouth next to her ear and whispered with a smirk. "You have someone else? And who is that person?"

Katherine started to laugh loudly, letting a lost Elijah. "I'm sorry; I was just waiting for you to ask this question." She stopped to take her breath, trying to control her nervous laugh. "I saw you earlier; you were so embarrassed because you didn't know what we were for each other."

Elijah sighed in relief when he understands why Katherine was laughing. "I didn't wanted to scare you by making things official."

Katherine nodded and step just a bit away from him, keeping her hands on his shoulder and chest. "I'm just going to tell you what I want." She breathed in deeply. "I would want to be with you, but I don't know you enough yet…" She bit her bottom lips lightly. "But I also want you to… wait for me."

Elijah kissed her to answer, and then whispered against her lips. "I understand. And no woman can reach your level so I'll be waiting for you as long as it takes."

Katherine nodded smiling, enjoying this innocent moment with him.

Esther had just reached the top floor, she wanted to talk to him about this so-called new talented lawyer, and she didn't a want a girl like that in her company. She passed next to the windows of Elijah's office when she saw this girl and her son, kissing each other. Esther's blood started to boil, that was why he hired her. She needed to stop that, she quickly walked back to the elevator and went to the ground floor where she found her husband. "Mikael!" she called him with a stridently voice.

Mikael turned around and faced his wife. "What's going on? Have you talked to Elijah?"

"No, I haven't! His mouth was already busy!" Esther didn't need to say it, she knew he will understand.

Mikael would have become crazy if he hadn't known his son by heart. "Don't worry. Remember the last girl? It happened in the same way, we just have to snoop in this story and it will end."

Esther bit the inside of her cheek. "Are you sure? I'm afraid it's different this time."

Mikael grabbed his wife's arms. "It's always the same story. Elijah choses his girl like that, she is just another one, it won't last long. We just have to let him the time to have fun with her and it will end just after."

Katherine was walking toward the exit, a huge smile drawn on her lips. She saw her maybe future mother and father in law in the hall; they seemed really hungry which make Katherine frowned. She walked next to them when she heard what they were saying, and they were talking about her. Just another one, Have fun with her. Katherine's eyes were filling with tears, she almost run toward the exit, how could she have been that stupid?! Outside she took the first taxi which was coming and asked to the driver to bring her to her home. She was fighting against the door when her phone rung, it was Elijah. She refused the call and sent him a text. You'll receive the papers saying that I won't work in your company tomorrow. Now don't call me, text to me, come to see me, try to reach me and talk to me ever again. Bye. She turned off her phone and rested her hand against the car's windows.
