A/N: Here it is! The seventh chapter! I hope you all enjoy it! I'm busy with school work, and currently I'm getting ready to head to school now. Yay! (Sarcasm) College is so much fun!

Third PoV

Dulce stood at her doorstep, staring at the floor in front of her. Right in front of her door, was a box. And above that, was another box, with an envelope to top it all off. She scratched her recently dyed hair in confusion and frustration. She was sure she knew which one of the boxes was from. But for the rest, she wasn't sure. Sighing, she hurried up the steps, grabbing what was in front of the door, before going inside.

…

She opened the first box, to see a not on top of wrapping paper. She immediately notice Klaus' handwriting.

'Dulce,

I hope you wear this dress tonight. It reminded me of you, and your daring ways. I know red was always a color you enjoyed to wear, especially when we first met. In fact, you wore red the first time I had met you. And the first time I had realized my feelings for you. Something I don't think I can put in paper. Because somehow you always leave me speechless, and unable to make coherent thoughts.

Forever yours,

Niklaus'

She pulled the dress out, and smiled. Feeling her heart flutter as memories of her and Klaus dancing, and declaring their love for each other. It was a full moon that night. And she was wearing a ruby red victorian gown with a lace trimming over her breasts. It was one of her most cherished memories, that she shared with him. She glanced down at the other box, and place the dress back she pulled it from, so she can open open it up. And when she did, she was shocked to see another note inside, and this one was being Kol's handwriting.

'Birdy,

It's been awhile since we last spoke. I think it's time to catch up, at the ball. I know how you secretly loved balls. And from what Rebekah has told me, you like the color of an outfit that a, Disney princess wore?

Well, there is gown for you, in there, to make you outshine everyone at the ball, though you don't need much help, you always seemed to do that. Though sadly, that's not the only reason why I'm giving you this. My dear brother Niklaus, sent you dress, but I'm afraid, you aren't the only one. A miss Caroline Forbes, received a dress, that I'm sure you wore to a ball the last time I saw you.

Kol'

"Bastard."

…

It was now nightfall, and she was standing at the front steps of their home. She can distinctly hear Elijah's voice through the door. She knew she was late, but better late than never showing up.

The doors were pushed open, and whatever Elijah was going to say seemed to drift off. Everyone was staring at the late commer. Her lavender hair casting her out amongst everyone else, along with what she was wearing. There eyes were glued to her frame as she glided to one of the waiters, grabbing a glass of champagne, before facing the staircase, where her eyes met the Mikaelson's. With a quirk of her lips she lifter her glass at them before taking a sip. She closed her eyes as Elijah resumed talking.

The memory of the night they woke up still fresh in her mind.

After Elijah gave out the signal, Kol entered the room.

"Kol." Klaus looked shocked as he saw his brother, who spared a glance at his best friend, before looking back at Klaus. "Long time brother." Before jabbing the dagger into him. Klaus backs away, only for Finn to appear, grabbing a dagger and stabbing it through Klaus' hand. In a panic, he looks at Dulce. Who just looks at the door.

"Rebekah, I think your brother wants to say hello." And just as Klaus begins to rush away, Rebekah stops him, by stabbing him with the dagger.

"Rebekah, why?" He asked. She scoffs. "It's for all those who you've hurt."

"Care to dance?" Kol's voice broke through her thoughts. She grins. "Oh Kol, if I agree to this dance, I hope you remember what you are getting into?" She questioned as she took hold his hand as he spun her onto the dance floor just as the music began. (A/N: Alright everyone who is reading this, I completely recommend you guys to listen to this song, Hoy Tengo Ganas De Ti by Alejandro Fernandez and Let It Be Me by Jennifer Lopez. Because it's going to go with what's going to happen. Let me know if you think another song would have suited this moment with Dulce and Klaus. So continue on!)

They soon began to dance, purposely messing up the routine, but still managing to look graceful, refusing to switch partners. Thinking back to the old times together. Laughing loudly, when one bring up a moment in time when they had caused trouble. Very much aware of The Salvatores casting glances at them, along with Elena.

Though in one of those spins, she caught sight of Niklaus, following after Caroline. She froze for fracture of a song, but that fracture of a second was all it took for the remaining three men in her life to see the pain, in watching her love, chase after the one girl who had made her life hell. In that fracture of a second, she was brought into the arms of Kol and taken outside.

"I can't breath Kol!" She gasped out as she gripped onto his arms. Tears forming into her eyes. "Dulce! Calm down! It's going to be alright Birdy!" Kol whispered, bringing her into his arms once more. He growled softly, feeling responsible for her pain. If he hadn't of brought her to his home that day, none of this would've happened. If he hadn't of gotten attached to this girl, who had matched his wit, then he wouldn't have had to see her in pain. The only type of pain that could be caused by someone you truly loved. The pain, brought to her by his very own brother, who had sworn to him, that he would never hurt his Birdy.

He glanced up to see Rebekah rushing to them. Quickly, Dulce was soon in Rebekah's arm, being led to his sister's room, as he listened to Rebekah coo at her and wipe her face.

…

Dulce's PoV

"Rebekah…" I whispered, as she finished retouching my makeup. "Yes?" I looked at her, with hollowed eyes. "Something is happening. I don't trust your mother. In fact, when you get your glass, I need you to give it to me. Don't ask questions. I'm sure you'll know what to do after. It's just a precaution. Don't worry, but if something does happen. Alert your brothers, but not Finn. He cannot be trusted." I continued, getting up from her bed, before heading down the stairs, her following after me. I looked around and saw Elena with Elijah. Two waiters came by, one handing a glass to Rebekah, and the other offering one to me. I grabbed it, before quickly switching it with Rebekah.

...

Third PoV

After the switch of drinks with Rebekah, Dulce took a couple steps forward, as the crowd began to form once more. The sound of the crystal ringing is heard throughout the room as everyone looks at Esther.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Waiters are coming around with champagne. I invite you all to join me in raising a glass. It provide me no greater joy than to see my family back together as one. I'd like to thank you all for being part of this spectacular evening. Cheers!" But before any of the guests could take a sip of the drink, the sound of glass hitting ground followed by the thump of a body could be heard echoing around the room.

A scream escaped from Rebekah's mouth as she rushed forward, followed closely by Kol and Klaus. There on the floor with blood pooling from her mouth, was Dulce. Everyone stood there shocked, as Esther looked at the girl with fear in her eyes.
