~ I hope you like this chapter. I didn't have a lot of motivation with writing this one because there was only one review on the last chapter. Three updates in one month... hopefully I can continue that until I get to the end of season 3 (if I can get that far)

ENJOY!

Luna's POV

It has been two days since a word from Klaus. I was glad to be able have time away from him, but after the dance and the dream, he still was on my mind. I did what I could to distract myself, but nothing completely worked. A part of me wanted to ask my mom what I should do, but I kept thinking that the only reason she was in Mystic Falls was because Klaus compelled her to. It made me just think of him more and I didn't want to, not after everything he's done to me. I should hate him for it, but after giving me my mom and the dream I had, I couldn't help but start to think of him a little differently.

After I woke up after the dance, I hung out with Damon a little bit, but I also hung out with Tyler and Jeremy. I was careful what to say around Tyler, knowing that it could get back to Klaus. The both of them were nice, but they both had someone even if they were arguing with them. I didn't have anyone, but I liked it that way at the moment. It seemed like Klaus was the only one that was taking an interest in me that way and I'd rather be single than be with him.

I decided to get out of the boarding house and go to the Grill, where I knew Damon was. He was actually fun to be around, but I could tell that he liked Elena. It was okay with me, but you never know what could happen.
"I give you a choice. Bloody Mary or Screw Driver. Brunch in a bottle." Damon said as he pointed to some drinks. I came up behind him and took what I thought the Bloody Mary was. "Come on Ric, I can't drink all this by myself. I mean I can but then somebody's getting naked."
"That's fine with me." I said with a smirk, which made Damon turn to me with a small one of his own.
"Oh man I can't believe you're making us drink alone." Damon said to Alaric after a few moments.
"I'm busy." Alaric said without looking up.
"It's the eve of Klaus-aggedon." Damon said and I rolled my eyes, hoping that I wouldn't have to hear about Klaus. "You're doing homework?" Damon asked Alaric.
"This may come as a shock but I am not here to hang out with you." Alaric said to Damon. "I'm here to see Jeremy. Who is an hour late for his shift. " He said after checking his watch.
"Kids today... Where are their values?" Damon asked as I took a sip from my glass. Alaric pushed a paper towards us.
"That's his mid- term paper." He said as I tried to look over Damon to get a better look at it. "Copied it straight off the internet. Didn't even try to hide it."
"Ooh, somebody's getting grounded." Damon said and I couldn't help but let out a little chuckle.
"Did you say you are waiting for Jeremy?" The woman behind the bar asked. "As in Jeremy Gilbert?"
"Yeah." Alaric said, answering her.
"He was fired last week." She said before going back to her work.
"Oops." Damon and I said at the same time.

Damon and I had a good amount of drinks and I decided to challenge him in a game of darts. I knew that he probably had more experience, but we were both drunk so it even the field a little bit. I was winning, but Damon was convinced that he was going to win.
"Jeremy, the minute that you get this call me!." Elena practically yelled into her phone as Damon threw a dart at the board. I just rolled my eyes. "Unbelievable!" I just smiled because I noticed that Damon didn't score good on the dartboard.
"You are feisty when you are mad." I said in observation as Damon handed me the darts.
"It's not that I'm mad." Elena said. "I'm just, I'm worried."
"But why?" I asked before throwing a dart at the board.
"He lost his job at the Grill." Damon said. "He can survive, Elena."
"He is spiraling." Elena said with worry. "Ever since Bonnie broke up with him, he is moody, he is not really talking to anyone."
"It's typical teenager." Damon and I said at the same time, which sort of freaked me out.
"Who's seeing ghosts and has lost everyone that he cares about." She softly said to him.
"Not everyone. He still has you." Damon said just as a dart I threw hit the board.
"I won!" I said with a smile as I spun around. I probably would have fallen over, but Damon caught me. "You lost." I said, sticking my tongue out at him as I stood up straight.

"Don't mind me." Klaus said when Elena opened her mouth to say something. The three of us looked to see Klaus sort of leaning on a railing. My smile shrunk when I saw him standing there with a smirk. 'My day was going so well.' I thought before picking up my drink from the table.
"Klaus." Elena said, which made Klaus look from me to her.
"You gonna do this in the Grill?" Damon asked him as he took a small step in front of Elena. "In front of everyone? It's a little beneath you, don't you think?"
"I don't know what you are talking about." Klaus said, obviously playing dumb as I took a sip from my drink. "I just came down to my local pub to grab a drink with a mate." He turned to the person behind him. "Get a round in, would you Tony?"
"I'm surprised you stuck around town long enough for happy hour." Damon said to Klaus when he looked back towards us. I just stayed quiet behind Damon, but paid attention to the conversation.
"My sister seems to be missing. Need to sort that out."
"Cute blonde bombshell, psycho. Shouldn't be too hard to find." 'Damon sounds like he knows something.' I thought. I didn't know where Rebecca was and she was my friend, so I was worried.
"Truth is I've grown to rather like your little town." Klaus said as he glanced back at me. "Think I might fancy a home here." He took a few steps closer to Damon. "Oh I imagine you're wondering how does this is affect you. The answer is, not in the slightest. Unless I get what I want and everyone behaves themselves you can go on living your little lives however you choose. You have my word." Klaus glanced at me.
"What more could you possibly want?" Elena asked.
"Well for starters, you can tell me where I might find Stefan." Klaus stepped closer to Damon and Elena.
"Stefan skipped town the second he saved your ass." Damon said as he protectively stood in front of Elena.
"Well you see that is a shame. Your brother stole from me." Klaus said to Damon. "I need him found so I can take back what's mine."
"That sounds like a Klaus and Stefan problem." Elena said, which made Klaus step a little closer to her again.
"Well this is me broadening the scope, sweetheart." Klaus smirked before Damon protectively walked away with Elena, leaving me alone with Klaus.

I finished my drink and was about to leave, but Klaus stopped me by standing in front of me.
"Would you care for a drink love?" He asked and I could tell that there was some hopefulness in his voice.
"I'm drunk enough for the daytime." I said before I slowly started to walk away. There was a part of me that wanted to take him up on the offer, but I didn't want to give into him if I could help myself.

I went back to the boarding house and spent some time in the library, listening to music on my phone. I could hear Damon's footsteps over my music, but I really didn't bother to say anything.
"Want a drink?" I could hear him ask me over my music.
"I never pass up a free drink." I said with a small smile before he handed me a glass. As I took a sip from it, I noticed that he showed up.
"I think it's about time we had a drink, don't you?" Klaus asked Damon, and I ignored the look he gave me.
"I'd say we're overdue." Damon said as I made my music a little louder. I could still hear them over it, but it didn't hurt to try and drown the sound of Klaus's voice.
"Well, you've been so busy with all your plotting and scheming." Klaus said as he took a few steps closer to us.
"You know me. Never miss a chance to plan an epic failure." I chucked at Damon because I thought it was a little funny.
"Don't be so hard on yourself. Who could have guessed your own brother would betray you?" He walked closer to us, but I was on the couch so there was still some distance between us.
"Well, we did have a front row seat when your sister lied to you." Damon said and I made sure I wasn't looking at them.
"Yeah, well she's fickle that one. And you say you have no idea of her whereabouts?"
"That's the thing with younger siblings. You just never know what they're gonna do." I couldn't help but look at Damon and wonder if he actually knew where she was or not. He didn't say anything, but I couldn't help but have a feeling that he might know. I didn't ask because I also had a feeling that they wouldn't tell me because I was a hybrid and they didn't want it getting back to Klaus. "Drink?" Damon asked Klaus before pouring him a glass.

Out the corner of my eye, I could see Damon hand Klaus the glass.
"Cheers." Klaus said, glancing at me as Damon
"Down the hatch." Damon said as the three of us all took a drink from our glasses.
"You know, we've actually got a lot in common you, Luna and I." Klaus said when I decided to stop my music.
"Maybe we can bond over our mutual loathing of Stefan." I suggested as I slid my phone into my pocket. I didn't like Stefan because he seemed like an ass, but before Klaus compelled him, he was sort of nice.
"Why are you so mad at him? He stole something?" Damon asked and I was slightly more interested than I was in the morning.
"My family, the Originals." Klaus said as he walked around to my side of the couch. "I had them daggered, boxed-up awaiting the day when I saw fit to wake them. And he went in and pinched the bloody lot."
"Of course he did. Such a buzz kill, my baby bro." I slightly smiled at Damon's words. "Well, I'd love to find him. Just the trouble is, I sure as hell don't work for you."
"You know, your drink stinks of vervain, so I can't compel you." Klaus said to Damon without looking towards me. "There be no point in killing you because your actually the one with the most help of getting me what I need. And yet it would seem a demonstration is in order. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough when I told you to find Stefan." I stood up from the couch and walked out of the room, not paying attention to the rest of their conversation.

I walked into the main room and stood by the window. I couldn't help but think about Klaus's family. The only one I met besides him was Rebecca, but from what I heard from Elena, they had a brother named Elijah. I couldn't help but wonder if they were all like Klaus, not hybrids, but personality wise. 'Where is Rebecca?' I asked myself before I noticed that Klaus walked in the room. I could tell he stopped and stared at me for a minute before he walked out.

It seemed like I looked out the window, just thinking, for a while. My mind went over everything that Klaus has done and how he seemed to act. The things that happened since I arrived in Mystic Falls and really just everything that happened since Klaus turned me almost two years ago. I eventually went up to my room after I had a blood bag. I laid in my bed and stared at the ceiling as I did more thinking. 'Maybe Klaus isn't really what he seems' I thought when I pictured my mom, the homecoming dance, and even the dream I had of him. I didn't want to think of him though, so I tried to think of something else. Slowly, my eyes started to close and I drifted off to sleep, even though it was still early in the night.

~ I know it's not the best chapter, but there is a reason for that... it was the lack of reviews on the last chapter.

~ I don't have much planned after this chapter so whatever ideas you have that you would like to see, please share them. I try to include readers ideas as much as I can so it makes it more fun to read. Also, your ideas give me inspiration for when I get into writer's block or when I'm planning future chapters.

~ I know I shouldn't be saying this because there are people that actually like this story, but if I don't get reviews every chapter, I will find a way to end this before the end of season 3 for this story. It would be very disappointing for me because I really like writing this story and I have some great ideas that I can do for season 4 that involves Kol/Luna/Klaus (: So, PLEASE REVIEW! If at least 3-5 people review each chapter, I'd be happy and won't bother about reviews each chapter. The more reviews on each chapter the quicker the chapters come and the better (and hopefully longer) they will be.
