Dear Maria,
I miss you dearly, not a day goes by where I do not think of you.
It should have been me who had died that day.
Katherine was your best friend, how did she fail to put her blood in your system that night?
I'm sorry father killed you.
Whe...
It's been 24 hours since I've heard from Klaus, it was safe to say I was completely worried. The moment I got home I regretted not staying in that room with him, but his siblings needed to get out their anger, I couldn't be in the way of that.
Currently, I sat on the couch downstairs, staring at the fire place with a cold cup of bourbon in my hand.
Every waking thought I had was of Klaus, I knew he couldn't be killed but.. he could still be tortured.
A knock on the door pulls me out of my thoughts, I remain seated for a few seconds before deciding to stand up and see who was knocking at 8 in the morning.
Once I reach the door and open it, no one is there.
I stand there confused for a few seconds before noticing a box on the ground, I turn to place my bourbon on the small table by the door and bend down to pick up the box.
"Who is it for?"
I turn around quickly, letting out a breath of relief as Stefan comes into view.
"You scared the hell out of me." I mumble, closing the door behind me with my foot and walking over to the couch, Stefan comes to stand beside me and we both stare at the box questioningly.
I reach forward and untie the little bow, lifting the lid off, the first thing that caught my attention was the fancy red dress folded perfectly, but Stefan spotted a note and reached for it.

"You've been invited to the Mikaelson ball." I furrow my eyebrows and grab the note from his hand, "Esther Mikaelson? Who's that?" I ask and Stefan shrugs, "Guess we'll find out."
I read the note over again, Stefan walks away, leaving me alone in the living room.
Just as I was about to throw the note back in the box, I spot more writing on the back of the card.
Meet Me At The Ball - Klaus
"Huh.." I mumble, before staring down at the dress once again.

Since I was bored, I decided to follow Damon and Stefan to Elena's house. I really had nothing else to do, so why not?
Once we arrive, Elena looks surprised to see me but invites me in anyway, "Did you get an invitation too?" Elena asks me and I nod, "Yeah."
"Esther wants to see me and I think I should go." Elena explains and I don't even need to look at my brothers to know their reactions, "Absolutely not. There's no way you are spending even a moment alone with her." Damon immediately disagrees, although Stefan remains silent.
"What's the harm? It's just a ball." I bud in, Damon turns to glare at me but Elena looks happy that I'm on her side. "She could get killed."
"Yeah and the flu can kill her too, but I don't see you disinfecting this whole house so she won't get sick. It's not a big deal Damon."
