Chapter 20: The Mikaelsons' Ball

The siblings sat at the dining room for breakfast. Their mother was out with Finn, doing god know what.

"Where is your lovely girlfriend?" asked Kol. "Asleep. She decided to skip school today," said Elijah, reading the newspaper. "Ho, well. We all heard the night you had, you have exhausted the poor girl," said Kol, smirking.

"The opposite thing around, brother," said Elijah, sighting. Kol chuckled.

Elijah folded his newspaper. "Nicklaus," he said. Klaus looked at him with glossy eyes. Elijah's eyes softened. "Go talk with Danny, apologized. She will forgive you," said Elijah.

Kol snorted. "You are asking for a miracle," said Kol. "Definitely," said Rebecca. "Don't speak about things you don't know," said Cassie that just came in to the dining room.

"Good morning Cassandra," said Elijah. "Cassie," she sighed, kissed his lips and sat on his lap. He smiled. She was wearing one of his shirts. Kol looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "Don't have your clothes here yet?" he asked. "I don't live here, besides this place is all new," said Cassie.

"Right," said Kol, smirking.

Cassie was eating some cereals with milk.

"Nick, how are you?" asked Cassie softly. "Mmm…?" asked Klaus. "Elijah is right, go talk with her, it will be fine," said Cassie. He just nodded.

Cassie sighed.

"Danny? Are you alright?" asked Damon behind her bathroom closed door. He could hear the vomiting sound. "No," she answered, washing her face and mouth.

She came out of the bathroom and slipped in to her bed. Damon stroked her hair. "Do you want me to call your parents? Or Cassie maybe?" suggested Damon softly. She shook her head. "Can you call Nick?" asked Danny, sobbing. "Sure," he breathed and went out of the room.

He met Stefan in the hallway. "Is she alright? I heard vomiting," said Stefan. "She is pregnant from Klaus, and before you will say it's impossible, it's because his wolf side," said Damon. "Ho," said Stefan. "Yeah, ho. By the way, do you have his phone number? She wants him, and she is sobbing and crying and stuff," said Damon.

"Yes, I will call him," said Stefan and dialed his number.

"Hello," said Klaus after the first ring.

"It's Stefan,"

"I know; what is it?" asked Klaus with a hollow voice.

"It's Danny; she asked for you. She is vomiting and crying, she is quite a mess," said Stefan.

"I am on my way," said Klaus and hang up.

"I am going out; see you later, brothers, sister, Cassie." Said Klaus and rushed out.

"Danny?" guessed Cassie. "Danny." Agreed Elijah.

Klaus knocked on the boarding house's door.

"She is in her room," said Damon that opened the door. "Thank you," said Klaus and sped to her room.

Danny was lying in bed when Klaus came in to her room after knocking softly on the door.

She looked at him with tearing eyes and he rushed to her side, warping his arms around her. "I am so sorry, I panicked, please forgive me love, please," he asked softly. She just nodded, crying to his chest.

"Stay?" she whimpered. "Of course," he replied and got under the covers next to her, pulling her to his chest.

"I love you," she breathed. "I love you too."

Klaus woke up to his buzzing phone. It was the middle of the next morning.

"Brother," he breathed quietly. Danny was still asleep in his arms.

"Nicklaus. How is Danny?" asked Elijah.

"Asleep peacefully, more or less. How is everything over there? Did you found out what our mother up to?" asked Klaus quietly. "Well, for now she wants a ball," said Elijah. "A ball? Great." Sighed Klaus. "Yes, tomorrow's night, be there with Danny," said Elijah. "If she up to this, I will not force her. This pregnancy is weakening her, too much vomiting," said Klaus. "O.k. but you have to come," said Elijah. "I don't have to do nothing, I am hanging up brother, I don't want Danny to wake up," said Klaus. "Sure, good bye," said Elijah and hanged up.

"Nick?" mumbled Danny. "Hi… I am sorry I woke you up," he said softly. "It's o.k. How are you?" she whispered, stroking his reddish hair. "Still processing the situation. What about you?" asked Klaus.

"I had two days to do so; I kind of knew it quickly. The nausea started the next morning very early, the vomiting last night. Besides, my mom said that she knew that she is pregnant the day after so…"

He chuckled. "So you basically knew right away," he stated. She tilted her head in thought and then nodded in agreement. He laughed.

He kissed her lips. Danny sighed and kissed him back passionately, only stopping to take off his shirt and hers.

They made love passionately, hungrily.

"He forgot that we live here too?" asked Damon. "It sounds so," said Stefan. "Unbelievable," grumbled Damon. "What's unbelievable?" asked Cassie. She just came back from school, her hand in Elijah's. "Your cousin and his brother," said Damon. She frowned and looked at Elijah in confusion. Elijah whispered something in her ear. "Ho," she giggled, making Elijah smile.

"Yes, ho. Super hearing is not meant for this," said Damon. "Relax dad," said Cassie, rolling her eyes at him.

Cassie was lying on her bed, a book open in front of her with a notebook and a pen.

"What are you doing?" asked Elijah, stepping in to her room, and leaning to kiss her lips. "Homework, Math." She replied. He lay down next to her on his back, playing with her hair.

"Go away," she mumbled. "Why?" he whined. "You are distracting me," said Cassie. He pouted. She kissed his lips and went back to her homework.

Elijah didn't leave.

"Elijah!" called Cassie when his hand started to travel over her back, making her shiver.

"Yes my dear?" he smirked at her. Cassie kissed him passionately.

"If I will fail in Math, I am blaming you," she breathed. He smiled and pushed her stuff off the bed, pulling Cassie on top of him. She giggled.

Elijah took off her clothes, placing small kisses all over her body. She sighed and started to pull off his clothes.

"Cassandra Salvatore!" they froze when they heard Damon's scream.

"I think your father is not so approve," said Elijah. "I don't care," said Cassie and pulled him in to another kiss under the covers. He didn't complain.

It was the next day, a few hours before the ball.

Danny was standing in front of the mirror in a blood-red dress. It was long and wavy, with sleeves that exposed her shoulders. Half of her hair was up, and she had blood-red high heels.

"I am not so sure about this dress, I look like the devil," said Danny. "You look perfect and well, you are dating a little red-head demon," said Cassie. Danny scowled at her.

Cassie was wearing a blood-red dress too, but while Danny's dress was fluent, Cassie's dress was puffy. Cassie's hair was down in perfect open curls.

Both of the girls put a little makeup on, and went down the stairs to their shocked boyfriends, and the two Salvatores.

"Well boys?" asked Cassie in a smile. "You look perfect but…" started Elijah, but his voice trailed off. "Your mother will flip," said Cassie in a smile and a wink toward Klaus.

Klaus's laugher boomed. Danny smiled. She loved it when he laughed.

Cassie smiled at Elijah, hoping he is not mad at her. He shook his head in a sighed, and pulled her in to his arms. "It really childish," said Elijah. "Well, maybe brother, but mother really deserves it after her reactions to our girls, don't you think?" said Klaus.

"We don't understand," said Stefan. "Our mother doesn't like the idea of us having girlfriends, and she really doesn't like the idea of me becoming a father. This blood dresses to the ball of the woman that created vampires are… well, childish vengeance," explained Klaus. "Ho. Cassie you are definitely your father's daughter; let's go now," said Stefan and led the way to their cars, Klaus, Danny and Cassie chuckling behind him at Damon's frown.

Most of town was there.

"Nick," whispered Cassie on his ear, tilting her head to Finn and Esther on the stairs. They looked annoyed, angry. Nick laughed quietly and turn to his brother and Danny to tell them what's so funny. Danny joined to his laugher, while Elijah rolled his eyes at them.

"Well, you look… bloody," said Rebecca that just showed up with her brother, Kol. "I assume it's for mother and our dear oldest brother?" said Kol. "Well, of course," said Cassie in a playful bow. "I really like your girlfriend Elijah," said Kol, laughing. They all joined to his laugher (well, Elijah not so much).

"You look better," said Rebecca to Danny. "I feel better," said Danny. "Sorry for my reaction the other night, I hate being daggered," said Rebecca. "Don't worry about it," smiled Danny.

"Hey Nick, how did a demon like you got himself a nice girl like her?" asked Rebecca. "I climbed to the wrong window," he shrugged. "What?" she asked confused. Danny laughed. "He came to look for Cassie but he got to the wrong window and fined me instead," said Danny.

"What about you?" asked Kol, looking at Elijah and Cassie. Cassie told him their story. "You fell at him from the celling?!" he called in surprise. Danny chuckled.

"Brothers, sister, I think it's time," said Elijah, tilting his head for the staircase where his mother and oldest brother were standing with a glass of champagne in hand.

Kol, Rebecca and Klaus followed him to take their place on the stairs.

After a short speech by Elijah, everyone went to the ball room for a traditional dance, while Finn and Esther went upstairs.

"Your mom is up to something," said Cassie. "Let me worried about my mother," said Elijah in a smile before turning her around to his brother's arms.

"Hello love," said Klaus in a smile. "Hi Nick," she giggled. He chuckled. "Are you excited yet?" she asked. "You are talking about the baby?" asked Klaus. "What else?" asked Cassie. He shrugged. "To ask again in a week or two?" suggested Cassie. He laughed humorlessly.

Cassie kissed his forehead. "You will be a great father, I promise," said Cassie. The dance ended and she warped her arms around him. He closed his eyes. Cassie smiled when Danny came to them. "Here, she will hug you better," whispered Cassie and turned him to Danny. "Hey you," said Danny in a smile and pulled him to her arms. They spoke quietly while hugging.

"Is he alright?" asked Elijah as he took Cassie to another dance. "He is scared," said Cassie. "The baby?" asked Elijah. She nodded. "I think he is afraid he will be like Mikael," said Cassie. Elijah growled. Cassie kissed his lips and he calmed down a little.

Cassie was lost in thoughts for a while. "Cassie? My dear? Are you alright?" asked Elijah. "Yes. I need to speak with your mom," said Cassie and hurried to the stairs. "Wait, what?" asked Elijah, hurrying after her. "Elijah, do you trust me?" asked Cassie, cupping his face. "With my life, it's her I don't trust," said Elijah. "Don't worry, I am not unarmed," said Cassie in a wink before walking up the stairs.

Cassie wasn't lying; she had a dagger under her dress.
