Amelia's spent 5 days with Klaus, Natalie and Katherine so far. Waiting for Elena to find her and take her back. Everytime she hears Katherine she thinks its Elena, so she rushes to the door to see but Katherine instead of finding Elena she sees Katherine smiling back at her. She hates being here, wherever she is. She doesn't even know where she is, so she can't help Elena. She is staying in the same room until Elena comes.. Thats if she does. A small, dark room with a glass door and one window. There is a room next to this one, which is where Klaus spends most of his time. Natalie and Katherine go out most of the day. Klaus just stays in, painting. Even though he may be a evil, disgusting monster; his paintings are really good.
Amelia stands at the glass door staring through watching Klaus as he paints. Klaus' back is facing Amelia but he knows she is watching him.
''You like my painting'' Klaus asks.
''I prefer the other one'' Amelia says honestly.
''Why don't you like this one?'' He asks.
''Its too bright. Doesn't suit you. You suit dark colors'' Amelia says and Klaus turns around. Klaus smiles.
''Give me some paint and a canvas'' Amelia says.
''Why?'' He asks.
''Because if i'm going to be here for a while i don't want to be sat in a corner all day. Thats what ive been doing for 5 days. Im bored'' Amelia says and Klaus walks over to the door.
''How can i trust you won't run if i let you out'' Klaus says.
''Compel me or what ever you do. I'm bored and i want something to do'' Amelia says and he smiles.
''Ok'' Klaus unlocks the door and lets Amelia out.
But before he lets her walk away from him, he stops her. He puts his hands on her shoulders and looks her straight in the eyes. ''You will not run out of this place. You will stay here and paint'' Klaus says using compulsion.
''I will not run, i will stay here and paint'' Amelia repeats what he has said.
''Good'' Klaus says and lets her go. Amelia walks over and grabs a canvas. She sets it up and pours some paint in a pallet. Klaus sits on the chair and watches her paint.
''What are you painting?'' He asks.
''Something to remind me of home'' Amelia says dipping her brush in Green paint. He looks confused. ''Back in England, i used to live in a cottage in a field.. I lived there with my family.. well my fake family''
''Where?'' Klaus stands up and walks over to her.
''Outside Wales'' Amelia says looking at him.
''I didn't like Wales. I prefer Scotland'' Klaus says.
''You know Klaus'' Amelia pauses. ''You're a strange man'' Klaus smiles. ''No, you are. You are evil and mean..'' Her voice trails off. ''Yet you're giving Elena a chance to find me'' His smile drops. ''Why?'' She asks.
''Because even though i may be that, family matters more to me than anything'' Klaus says.
''But we're not family. And you pushed your own away'' Amelia says stopping painting.
''My family betrayed me. I do not have a family. But you do'' Klaus says.
''Why though?'' Amelia asks.
''Because everyone deserves a chance'' He says. Amelia stares down at the floor confused. Why is Klaus being nice to her? When she lifts her head up to speak, she's in the room alone. Klaus is gone.
Elena sits at the table with Rebekah, Elijah, Damon and Stefan and they start discussing where to find Klaus.
''If he's not at his Mansion where could he be. Not somewhere obvious, but not somewhere to difficult otherwise he wouldn't let me have a chance to find her'' Elena explains.
''Where's Katherine anyway'' Damon says changing the subject. ''She said she'd help us out''
''Katherine?'' Rebekah asks. ''She said she'd help you?''
''Yeah, she said if we needed help she'd help us out and help us keep Amelia safe'' Elena says. Rebekah puts her head in her hands. ''Whats wrong?''
''Katherine is helping Klaus. She tricked you. She made you think she could trust her'' She says.
''That bitch'' Damon snaps. ''i knew something wasn't right when she came to see us''
''But she doesn't think we know does she?'' Elena asks. Rebekah shakes her head.
''I don't think so..'' Rebekah's voice trails off.
''Then, how about we play her at the same time?'' Elena says.
''What do you mean?'' Asks Rebekah.
''Call her, tell her we need her help to find Klaus. Then when she comes to meet us we tell her Amelia's gone. Then ask if she knows anything, if she suspects we know that shes with Klaus she'll run, but she can't get out the house if we block her from escaping'' Elena says.
''I think it could work'' Elijah says.
''You and Rebekah have to hide because if she sees you two she'll know'' Elena says and they nod. ''Great, lets call her''
Amelia has finished her painting. She stands infront of the canvas smiling at what she has made. Her mother.. well adoptive mother used to teach her as she was a teacher. She taught an art class, Amelia asked if she could go aswell. So she taught Amelia too.
''Its really good'' Klaus says walking in the room.
''Thanks'' Amelia says not bothered about his compliment.
''I'm hungry. What can i eat?'' She says simply.
''What do you want?'' He asks.
''Food'' Amelia says and he laughs. ''I'll look'' She says and walks out of the room to the kitchen. She takes out some butter, cheese and cucumber from the fridge. When she closes it she finds Klaus beside her. ''God!'' She shouts as he made her jump. ''You scared me'' She says and he smiles.
''Sorry'' Klaus says obviously doing it on purpose. Once shes made her sandwich she sits down at the table and begins eating it. Klaus grabs the other slice and eats it.
''Hey!'' Amelia snaps. ''I thought vampires don't eat normal food'' Klaus shakes his head.
''Mmm, its nice'' He says taking a bite. Amelia rolls her eyes and Klaus smiles amused by her being annoyed.
Klaus sits opposite Amelia at the table. When shes finished eating she pushes her plate to one side.
''Tell me about yourself then'' Klaus says randomly.
''What?'' Amelia asks.
''Tell me a little about yourself'' Klaus says.
''Why?'' She asks.
''I want to get to know you'' Klaus smiles.
''Why would you want to do that? You're going to kill me'' Amelia says honestly.
''Because your whole life is a lie'' Klaus says. ''And i'm curious'' Amelia stares at Klaus for a minute.
''Okay'' She pauses. ''Well...'' She begins telling Klaus about her past life. Lately Klaus has been really nice to her which is strange. She was used to him being mean and pushy but now.. he's acting weirdly around her. Klaus watches as she speaks. He is fascinated by her. He thinks theres something different about her to Elena and Katherine. One of the obvious reasons is she is human but there is another. He just doesn't know what.
After about an hour or 2, Klaus and Amelia have finished talking about her past life. Then they go into the room where the canvas' are, they sit on the couches.
''Now you know my story, i thinks its timei know yours'' Amelia smiles.
''I'm pretty sure you know about my life.. Everyone's told you'' Klaus says.
''But i want to know the details.. From what i see everyone's exaggerating about you'' She says.
''What do you mean?'' He asks.
''You're not what people say you are'' Amelia says. ''Well some parts you are and some parts you're not'' Klaus puts his head down. ''You can be mean, horrible and twisted'' She says and he stares at her. ''But you're not just that'' She says standing up. He watches as she walks away. ''Thank you'' She says just before walking into her room.
''For what?'' He asks.
''For letting Elena have a chance.. And for today. Even though i may be hostage, i had a good time'' She says smiling. He laughs.
''It was my pleasure'' He says and she closes the glass door.
