Seventeen

Caroline was waiting for Hayley outside of the Mikaelson home bright and early the next morning. She found out from Rebekah (who had not been too happy on answering Caroline's call at six am that morning) that all though Hayley usually spended her week at the bayou, she had come back to the compound to get some blankets for the wolves.

Just because Caroline had chosen not to tell Klaus didn't mean that she was leaving the little werewolf slut in the clear. "Come on." She mumbled as she looked at her watch she had remembered Tyler telling her once that Hayley was a morning person.

Caroline raised her head when she finally heard the creak of an open door. Finally.

"Hayley!"

Hayley looked completely puzzled. "What do you want?"

Caroline narrowed her eyes. "To tell you that I know the truth. I know that you're carrying Tyler's baby, not Klaus'. When Bonnie became the anchor every supernatural being passes through her, the witch you killed passed through her and told her. So your little secret is out."

Hayley raised her chin. "So why did you come here, Caroline, to threaten me? Because it's not going to work. As far as everyone is concern, I'm carrying the magical miracle baby. So get out of my way-"

"Stop." Caroline hissed as she gripped her wrist. "I don't know why you lied and frankly I don't care, but I hate the fact that you're deceiving Klaus especially since he's so excited to have this baby. Look I haven't told him, because of that, but I swear Hayley if-"

"If I what?" Hayley asked with a mocking tone. "Even if you tell him, Blondie who would believe you? Klaus may be in love with you, but he would easily trade you for this baby who he thinks it his child. Everyone thinks that this baby is the Mikaelson heir, and do you even have any proof? Everyone will probably think that you're some jealous, over control-"

"I would believe her." Klaus said standing at the edge of the door.

Hayley's face paled. "Klaus, I didn't know-"

"Get inside, Hayley." Klaus said sharply. Never taking his eyes off the two girls. "Caroline get Bonnie and come back, I'll get Katerina, Elijah, and Rebekah. We're going to have a family meeting."

"Good morning." Elijah whispered in Katherine's ear as he wrapped a protective hand around her shoulder and pulled up the covers to shield her naked form.

"Good morning." She said as she kissed him. "I had fun last night."

Elijah smirked. "Me too."

The door slammed opened. "Oh, good you two are awake," Klaus said without blinking. "Now hurry up and get dress-or wrap yourselves in a sheet I don't care. Family meeting in ten minutes."

"I'm not even part of the family." Katherine said as she settled back into her pillows.

"Unfortunately, since you're part of the Caroline and Bonnie trio it involves you too Katerina." Klaus snapped. "Now unless you want me to drag you by your beautiful curls I suggest you get dressed."

"What is this about Niklaus?" Elijah said tiredly as he put a protective hand on Katherine's knee. "Can't we have some privacy?"

Klaus ignored the last remark, in a broken voice Klaus said. "The baby that Hayley is carrying might not be mine."

". . . and she informed me that the baby that Hayley is carrying is not yours, but Tyler's." Bonnie said to Klaus not bothering to look at anyone else. The compound was filled with Rebekah, who looked pissed, Elijah who looked horrified, Katherine who looked like it was Christmas, Klaus who looked murderes, and Caroline who looked like a nervous wreck.

"That will be all." He waved Bonnie away. He turned to Hayley. "Hayley is this true?"

"Yes," Hayley tried to avoid trembling. "Its' true, but please understand-"

"Understand what?" he demanded as he tighten his grip around Hayley's throat and pinned her against the wall. "That you've been lying to me, taken advantage of my family generosity. I should kill you on the spot!"

"Klaus, she's pregnant!" Caroline shrieked as she placed a hand on Klaus' arm. "Let her go, you're better than this." Her eyes darkened. "She's not worth it and it's not the baby's fault."

Caroline's presence calmed him down and Klaus let go. Without another word Klaus left the compound.

"You little bitch!" Rebekah shrieked. "I thought you were my friend."

"I am-"

"You're not anything to this family anymore, Hayley." Elijah said sharply, his voice cold. "You are to leave the French Quarter and you may never return. If you do, once the baby is born we will kill you."

"Bad day?" Sophie raised an eyebrow once Bonnie walked into the bar looking less than happy. The scene at the Mikaelson house had been dramatic to say the least.

Bonnie nodded. "Something I rather forget." She took a pause. "How is Davina?"

Sophie shrugged as she handed a plate of chili to Bonnie. "She's ok now, some days she handles it better than others. But you and I both know what she won't be able to control that large amount of power for long, Bonnie?"

"What do you want me to do, Sophie?" Bonnie snapped back. "Jab a knife in the girl's chest."

Sophie looked taken back.

"Sorry," Bonnie said. She was still feeling a little anxious about what Kol had told her and about the strange dream with Grams. "I'm just having a really bad day."

"You and me both, Bon," Sophie said. Not bothering to tell her that she got Celeste's bones and now only needed Davina dead. "You and me both."

-End of Chapter Seventeen-

Ok, guys I'm really sorry to be doing this, but I'm going to put this story on a SHORT Hiatus (no more than a month, I promise.) It's just I'm working on so many stories (my fault, sorry) that I want to focus on finishing some of my almost complete stories first, especially before I start my sophomore year at college.

I really hope you understand, hopefully you don't feel that a month is too long for waiting. Thank you for your patience and for reading. If you have any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to PM me.

Again, sorry!

Much love,

Sweet Little Darling
