A/N: Want to tell you that I wanted to keep this one as close as I can in character so something I want to tell you before you read it. First of all it is supposed to be a double date (casual double date) but I don't feel comfortable writing about a character I don't understand completely. I think I understand Klaus and Hayley best in TO that is why I tend to write in detail about them. Elijah and Cami I am trying to but so far not too much luck so I will not go too much into the detail as to not make them OOC.

Now about the story she is five weeks shy of bringing their child in this world and moved back to the compound after Monique's attack on her.


Elijah was pacing his room thinking about how to stop thinking about her. It has been really hard to control his feelings for her after they had shared their second kiss but somewhere in his heart he knew that was not right. He was getting jittery and annoyed with himself, at the obsession and the desire he was feeling towards her and to some extend with her too. He suddenly had a thought and he left the compound and went to Rousseau's. For the next two days he spend a lot of time there even though he spend most of the time sitting there drinking and observing people but he had started to enjoy spending time there and occasional chit chat with Cami.

Klaus was walking towards his room when he heard her crying and stopped. He stopped said "bloody hell" and walked towards her room. The door was slightly opened, he knocked after deliberating for a moment and waited and when the crying sound stopped, he pushed it open a bit.

Hayley knew it was Klaus because of the knock so she wiped her eyes hastily and just in time to see him walk inside. He walked to her and said "are you okay?"

She looked at him, nodded and then said "it is nothing. What are you doing home at this time of the day?"

He smiled at her question and said "more to the point what are you doing home?"

Hayley snapped at him "I cannot leave this house without being afraid of being a target of a bomb or a kill" making Klaus's eyebrows raise.

She blushed at her outburst. Klaus looked at her for a moment and when she showed no sign of starting a conversation he started to retreat. As she was approaching the door she asked him "what are you doing tonight?"

He turned to look at her curiously but didn't say anything making her feel flustered again. She said "I was thinking maybe we can go out somewhere to eat. I know you don't eat but …" she couldn't finish her sentence feeling really stupid right now.

And then she got the shock of her life when she saw his expressions. Never in her wildest dream she would have imagined Klaus to show that expressions. He recovered and walked to her and asked "what?!"

For some reason seeing such a reaction and expression on his face relaxed her and gave a feeling of warmth swept through her and she said "I was thinking maybe we can go out for dinner or something seeing that both of us are alone at home and doing nothing."

Klaus shook his head slightly and before he could stop himself "are you sure you want to go with me?"

Hearing that made her angrily all of a sudden and she snapped "yes, you are right why I would want to go with you. It is not like we have anything in common."

And was turning away from him when he held her arm and turned her towards her and said curiously "what is going on?"

She sighed and said "I am tired of being cooped up into his house and I need to go out but not with a body guard or something."

Klaus stared at her for a moment and then nodded and asked her "where do you want to go?"

She stared at him and asked "do you ask every one of your dates where they want to go?"

Klaus was shocked to hear that and then he started to smile and leaned in and said to her flustered face "this is not a date little wolf. If I take you on a date, it will be more than dinner." And then he left her room with a smile on his face.

Half an hour later he put on his jacket and was walking towards his room and stopped and wondered 'what am I doing? What will Elijah think of this?' He was starting to have second thought when he looked up as he saw her coming out of her room. He looked at her pink dress that reached her thigh and swallowed hard cursing himself of why he agreed to go with her. Hayley smiled at him and said "okay, so where are we going?"

He cleared his throat and walked to her and said "Hayley, are you sure?"

She stared at him for a moment and then realized what he was saying so she said "It is not a date as you have so politely pointed out so why should he mind? We are having this child together so can't we just spend an evening together."

Hearing her acknowledge that she understood what he was saying pinched him a bit but he ignored that and said "okay lets go". Hayley smiled to herself as she noticed that he didn't offer her his arm or anything but opened the door of the car for her.

The drive to the restaurant was a quiet one. When she entered the restaurant, she looked around and then at him who smiled and said "your dress indicated that you wanted something formal."

Hayley looked down at her dress and asked him "too dressy?!"

Klaus felt his heart flutter but he said casually "not at all but it was not fit for Rousseau's".

A waiter approached him when they heard a voice behind them. Klaus looked around and groaned as he saw Cami with Elijah. Elijah's eyes went to Hayley who was looking at Cami. Elijah recovered first and said "what a pleasant surprise! Why don't we all share a table?"

Hayley looked instinctively at Klaus and realized to her surprise that the relaxed expression had gone from his face. Their eyes met and he said "sure why not."

The waiter led them to a reserved table.

Elijah pulled out a chair for Cami. Klaus looked at Hayley and felt bad for her from the expressions on her face and shook his head. Once seated, the waiter came to ask for drinks. Hayley ordered juice for herself and to her surprise Klaus ordered some nonalcoholic too whereas Elijah and Cami ordered champagne for themselves. When the waiter left Klaus stood up and said "excuse me I will be back in a minute."

Hayley looked at him in surprise but he brushed his hand on her shoulder casually, sending a chill through her making Elijah's eyes narrow, while getting up and looked into her eyes and said "just a minute" and left.

Hayley was sitting feeling awkward when Cami asked her "so Hayley how many more months for the baby to come out?"

Hayley said with a smile "five more weeks" and then said "excuse me" as her cell beeped and at the same time Klaus joined them.

She looked at her cell and instantly a smile appeared on her lips after reading the message "if you want to stay smile else put the cell on the table" and put the cell in her purse again.

She wondered 'is it her imagination or he just relaxed down again?"

After a couple of minutes of silence she heard a whisper "do you want to dance?"

She startled and realized that she was looking at Elijah and Cami. She looked around and saw Klaus looking at her with a smirk. She turned around again and saw couple dancing on the dance floor. She looked at Elijah and Cami again and nodded. Klaus looked at her in surprise but got up. He impulsively gave his hand to her. As Hayley took his hand she saw Elijah looking at them from the corner of her eyes.

As they left Cami said to Elijah "I have never seen them together before"

Elijah smiled and said "yes, this is their first time". He then asked her "do you want to dance?"

Cami nodded and held the hand that he offered her.

Klaus led her to the dance floor and started to sway her gently.

She asked him at once "did you know that?"

Klaus feet stopped moving just for a second and looked into her eyes without saying anything making her realize that he had no clue. She sighed and said "I am sorry". He still didn't say anything.

She looked around and saw couples dancing and smiling and laughing. Looking at them she at once decided to enjoy the evening and push Elijah and Cami at the back of her mind.

Klaus noticed her posture getting relaxed. He wondered what made her feel relaxed and then he noticed Elijah and Cami dancing on the floor too. He felt a twinge of annoyance but decided to ignore it. He suddenly realized that he was standing too close to her, her pregnant stomach was touching him. A fleeting image of their conversation in the nursery a day earlier when she had let him touch her stomach and feel the baby's kick came to his mind. He startled when he felt her squeeze his hand. He said "what?"

Hayley asked him "I said can I ask you something?"

Klaus said with a smile "sure".

Hayley was not expecting him to smile so that smile took her off guard. She composed herself and asked him "why didn't you ask me to move back from bayou?"

Klaus looked surprised at her question and twirled her and when she came back into his arms he said "I did. At Kieran funeral"

Hayley said rolling her eyes "before that?"

Klaus was quiet for a moment and then when she thought that he will not answer her he said "if you were not being persuaded by him then why would you have listened to me."

Hayley decided to play along and said "and if Monique had not tried to kill me, I probably wouldn't have come, then what"

She suddenly realized his grip on her hand tightening. She noticed his expressions and realized that he had gotten a bit upset. She said softly "Klaus my hand…"

He released his grip on her hand, shook his head and said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes "then I would have made sure to show you the nursery somehow."

Hayley laughed at that and said "you are so cocky. You think I would have come for the nursery?"

Klaus laughed openly and said "I know you would have come for that nursery."

Hayley was quiet for a moment and then said "I am sorry for ever doubting you about not loving this child"

Klaus was quiet for a moment, both of them remembering the incidence when she had accused him of not loving that child, and then said "what makes you believe me now?"

Hayley tilted her head and said softly "well many things since that incidence but that nursery"

He didn't realize that he was relaxing while swaying her gently on the music and without realizing his hand slipped from her upper back to her lower back.

She felt his hand at her back and felt a shiver run through her body. At the same time she realized that they were too close to each other and felt weird. Klaus sensed her getting conscious and realized what had happened. He stopped dancing and then without saying anything he led her back to their table. She asked him in surprise "what happened?"

Klaus looked at her and said "Hayley, I will never force you to dance with me" and picked up his drink.

Hayley looked at him in confusion and sat down next to him. She said gingerly "Klaus I didn't mean to…"

Klaus smiled at her and said "that is okay. Come, let us sit."

He saw her looking in their direction and wondered 'why is Elijah doing that?'

Elijah and Cami were doing a slow dance on a soft live music being played. He said something which made Cami laughed and put her head on his shoulder making Klaus look at Hayley who was looking at them too. Hayley turned around and looked at him and caught himlooking at her. She felt embarrassed that he had caught her second time doing that tonight. She said "I am sorry, I just…"

He leaned forward and said softly "don't apologize little wolf. I know the effect my brother has on women and to remind you…" and he touched his ears.

Hayley blushed at that and said "okay enough with that. Tell me what are you up to these days?"

Klaus raised his eyebrows at the change in her style and said "you really want to know or it is a conversation starter"

Hayley thought for a moment and then said "really want to know."

Klaus said with a laugh "at least you are honest"

They both looked at them when Cami said "who is being honest about whom?"

Elijah sat down and looked at Hayley's face which still had the smile at his last sentence.

Klaus said "Hayley is being honest …" and then he used all his willpower to stop wincing as he felt her kick under the table.

Hayley's face turned red as she realized what just happened. It was an impulsive action to stop him from telling what they were talking about. Klaus face didn't show any sign of what had happed and finished his sentence with a hint of smile on his face "about her first reaction to getting pregnant with my child."

Cami asked her excitedly "really what was it?"

Hayley couldn't help but look at him and seeing the smile on his face made her really annoyed. Then she noticed Elijah looking at her and she said with a sigh "of course at first I was scared and those damn witches were not letting me go. I knew it was his baby because well I had not been with anyone else since then."

Cami turned to Elijah and said "and what was your reaction?"

"Shocked" Elijah said "because so far we knew vampires, hybrids cannot have kids so it was definitely a shocking news"

She realized that Klaus had leaned back in his chair and put his hand behind her chair. She looked at him and realized that he was lost in thoughts and didn't know what he was doing. She had an idea what he was thinking and somehow she didn't want Cami to ask him how he felt but before she could say anything Klaus said "well I told the witches to kill her and the baby" shocking Elijah and Hayley but for some reason Cami started to laugh and said "you are joking."

Klaus picked up her drink and said "believe me love, I am not."

Hearing love from his mouth for the first time for someone else made Hayley a bit jealous and she looked at him and said with a smile"yes Cami, he did say that but I think he has come a long way now."

She turned towards him and asked him sweetly "you don't want witches to kill me and the baby now right?"

Klaus gave her a smile and didn't say anything but lifted his drink to a pretend toast to her.

Cami looked at Elijah to confirm it who was staring at Hayley and Klaus but said in a no-nonsense tone "yes Cami Hayley is right, Niklaus can sometime speak his mind without thinking."

Klaus laughed at that surprising Hayley again.

She looked at Cami and said "Cami tell me, how are your studies going?"

Hayley could feel the fingers of his hand resting at the back of her chair playing with the locks of her hair. She gave him a fleeting glance and realized that he didn't know what he was doing. She absentmindedly tucked the locks of her hair back behind her ear. The movement made Klaus realize what he was doing and to her slight disappointment he removed his hand from the back of her chair.

Cami didn't realize what happened and said "I am a psychcology major and I am looking for my final year thesis idea".

Klaus interjected "Cami is studying me."

Hayley and Elijah both looked at Klaus who was drinking his drink calmly. Elijah said "really! Care to elaborate brother"

Cami said "yes, Klaus has been sharing with me about his past and I would love to write his memoires one day but we have stopped doing that so that is postponed for now."

Klaus was looking at Hayley's face when he realized from her expressions that she knows something about the topic bringing an amused smile on his lips.

The waiter came with their food and served them. After they left and they started to eat their food Cami said "have you guys thought about a name?"

Hayley felt him shift in his seat. She said "a couple but nothing that I like really"

She asked "is she going to be Mikaelsons or Labanoir."

Elijah's eyes went to Klaus involuntarily and he could recognize tension on his face.

Hayley asked her in surprise "you know about my family?"

Cami smiled and said "yes, when you work in a bar you get to know about a lot of things. People talk a lot."

Hayley nodded and then as they got busy eating their food she said "Mikaelsons, she will be a Mikaelsons."

She saw Elijah smile but she could feel Klaus's smile too. Elijah said to Cami "you are not eating anything?"

Cami said "I am full. It was so nice."

Klaus noticed she was not eating anything either but didn't say anything.

Suddenly Cami said "that is a nice song. I remember when I came back to New Orleans someone was playing this. Brings back old memories. I had no idea about the supernatural community over here then."

Elijah looked at the smile on her face and said "must have been nice to be so carefree and alive". He then added "would you like to dance on this one?"

He put his napkin on the table and stood up giving her his hand.

As soon as they left the table, he leaned forward and said "how much do you know?"

She looked at him and said "about?"

He didn't say anything so she sighed and said "Elijah showed me what Mikael did to you when you triggered your gene."

He said with a sigh "Elijah showed you?!"

Hayley said "are you upset that I know?"

And when he didn't answer she said "listen can we just enjoy this evening and act like as if we are actually on a date"

He sighed and nodded. Suddenly Hayley started to feel nauseous. Klaus noticed her expressions and asked her "are you okay?"

She said "excuse me" and then went to the ladies room.

He sat there wondering 'what happened?' when he saw her coming back. She looked pale to him from distance. She walked to him and said "I am okay. Just a bit sickness. Fine now"

Elijah realized during dancing with Cami that he was really having fun with her. He relaxed down as soon as he realized that. She was telling him about Sean and her childhood. He had started to realize why Klaus was so comfortable spending time with Cami. She seemed like a good friend, intelligent, mature and bright. He startled from his thoughts when he realized that she was asking him something. He said "I am sorry for my lack of manner. I don't know what I was thinking. What were you saying?"

Cami asked him "I said you are doing a great job in not giving in on him."

Elijah said "yes, well he is my brother. I cannot give up on him."

Cami said "yes, the responsibility of older siblings, I am too well aware of it."

Elijah said "I am so sorry for you loss. First your brother and then Kieran. I liked Kieran."

Cami nodded and then she unintentionally looked at Klaus who was looking at Hayley and said "if Klaus had not helped me with him, I don't know what would have happened."

Elijah said "helped you how?"

Cami said with a surprise "you don't know?"

Elijah said "no, what happened?"

Cami said "I am surprised that he didn't tell you." She took a deep breath and said "my uncle lost his mind in the end and was dying so Klaus turned him so that magic could be broken. He refused to complete his transition and made peace with his end but the magic was not truly gone. He became a vampire and completed his transition from my blood. He was about to kill me when Klaus came there and killed him."

Elijah's feet stopped moving and looked at her in shock and said "Niklaus killed Kieran?!"

Cami said "I told him to. Uncle Kieran wouldn't have wanted to become what he had become."

She then added "thank you for being there for me. You all have been my greatest strength at that time."

Elijah smiled and said "anything for friends and family."

Klaus looked at Cami and Elijah dancing and then after a thought he said to Hayley "do you want to go out for a walk"

Hayley asked him "let's go. I need air too but what about them?"

Klaus said "hmm let me tell them"

He walked to them as they were dancing and said "Hayley and I are going out for a walk."

Elijah said "okay, Cami and I will join you guys later" making Klaus wonder 'what changed? He is so relaxed now. Not a hint of any annoyance'.

Cami said "sure".

Once outside she started to breathe and said "It was getting stuffy inside. I thought I was over that by now".

Klaus looked at a bench at a distance and said "let's go sit on that bench over there"

Hayley walked with him to the bench and sat down. He took off his jacket and gave it to her when he saw her rubbing her hands. They both sat there looking at the park in front of them. Hayley asked him "why were you upset that I know about your past?"

Klaus leaned forwards and looked down at the ground and said "knowing too much about anyone is never good."

She couldn't stop herself from saying "but you told Cami!"

He looked at her for a second and said "Cami was writing my memoires"

She asked him "why do you want your memories to be written?"

Klaus looked at her and then his eyes went to her stomach and he said "someone need to know my version of the story too".

He then leaned back resting his back against the bench and put his arms at the back of the bench.

They were both lost in their thoughts when she asked them "I thought you came out for a walk"

Hayley smiled at Cami and said "I was feeling nauseous so came out. Now I am better"

Suddenly she wished that they would walk away from them and leave them alone. Elijah said to Cami "we can go for a walk if you are up for it".

Cami smiled and said "sure" and linked her arms in his arm and they walked away. When they were earshot distance Klaus said to her casually trying to his best to keep sarcasm out of his voice "you are at the risk of losing my brother to Cami."

She looked at him in shock and realized that the thing that had been unsaid between them had been said today and said "If Elijah can fall for her then that means that he does not care about me and it is good that I find that out now then later".

She then looked at him and said "now that you have started this topic, tell me why you aren't jealous of me and Elijah?"

Klaus smiled and said "because jealousy should happen when there is a chance of something happening. We will never happen."

Hayley was so shocked to hear that she asked "why not?"

Klaus looked at her with amused expressions and said "isn't that obvious?"

Before Hayley could say anything an old lady stopped near them and said "congratulations you two. There is nothing more joyful then having a child."

And walked away. Hayley looked at Klaus with a smile but her smile faltered at the expressions on his face. She asked him "what happened?"

Klaus said "nothing". He looked at her in surprise when she relaxed back with her back touching the back of the bench making it impossible for him to remove his arm without causing another moment of awkwardness.

She wrapped his jacket around her and said "thanks for coming out with me today".

When he didn't say anything she looked at him and saw a smile on his face. She said after a while "this is nice" and then to his shock she rested her head against his shoulder. Klaus's fingers itched to wrap around her but then thought better of it when he realized that it will be difficult to put a lid on his feelings if he ever indulged them. After a couple of minutes of silence, he realized from the shallow regular breathing that she had gone to sleep. As he shifted a bit Hayley grabbed his arm during the sleep.

Elijah looked at Cami who was walking arm in arm with him and said her "it has been a long time I have done this."

Cami laughed and said "in that case you are doing great."

That made Elijah laugh and he asked her "in that case?!"

Cami said "yes, well. You do seem out of practice. You need to do this often if you want to get a hang of it. Things have changed in the past 1000 years, you know"

Elijah smiled and said "like what?"

Cami said "like we don't mind men putting their arms around us!"

She laughed when she realized that she had made the most polished and composed person she had ever met, blush.

Elijah smiled at her laughter and then he put his arm around her shoulder and said "like that?"

Cami nodded with a smile and said "so this was lesson number one. You need many lesson on how to do a causal date."

Elijah asked her "casual date?!"

Cami said mischievously "yes because on actual date, I have an idea what will happen. It is the casual date with meaningless chit chat that you have issue with in my opinion. But don't worry, any time you need a lesson in that, I can help you."

Elijah laughed at that and they walked quietly for a while until they spotted a musician playing an instrumental so they decided to sit on the bench and listen to him. After a couple of minutes Elijah realized that he was holding her hand without meaning too which came as a surprise him. When he finished playing they started walking back towards the bench where they had left Klaus and Hayley and to his surprise he realized that he didn't miss Hayley or felt jealous of her and his brother at all throughout the evening. As they were approaching the bench Elijah saw Hayley sleeping with her head resting on his shoulder and even though an annoyed feeling sneaked into his heart but he was surprised to realize that it was not as bad as he had expected it to be.

Klaus looked up as Cami and Elijah approached them and said "I have been thinking of leaving. Good that you guys are here."

He gently shook her and said "Hayley"

When he just stirred and didn't open her eyes he shifted and scooped her up and without making eye contact with Elijah or Cami started walking towards their car. He put her in the passenger seat and as he was buckling her seat belt her eyes opened and she said "oh I am so sorry Klaus."

He smiled and said "for what love?"

She said "for sleeping on our first and the only date"

Klaus said with a hint of smile on his lips "again love, if it were a date, believe me you wouldn't have been sleeping now" making her blush.

He laughed at that and then closed the door and went to the other side. The drive to the compound was quiet one. Once home, they got out and went to their rooms separately.

Cami turned towards him and said "I had a lovely time Elijah. Thanks for doing this for me. I needed this after what happened last couple of weeks."

He smiled and held her hand and said "me too. Thanks for giving me a great time too. May be we can do it again too."

Cami said with a laugh "sure, in any case I have to teach you some moves for a casual date".

Elijah smiled and leaned forwards and kissed her gently on the cheek said "good night Camile", turned and left.
