WHAT NOW?

Chapter #1. Old Flames

#THIS IS A FAN FICTION BASED ON THE VAMPIRE DIARIES AND THE ORIGINALS.

DISCLAIMER:
I DO NOT OWN THE CHARACTERS, THEY ARE OWNED BY JULIE PLEC AND THE CW TV. THIS STORY WILL NOT FOLLOW THE STORYLINE/TIMELINE (THOUGH MAJOR THINGS WLL BE SIMILAR) OF THE VAMPIRE DIARIES AND THE ORIGINALS, I AM JUST BORROWING THE CHARACTERS TO WRITE THE FAN FICTION.

“Klaus, you can’t keep showing up here without appointments, you know I have other patients who actually listen to me right?” Camille sat on her desk, arms folded as she glared down at me, I slumped down on her office couch making myself comfortable.
“I do listen to you Cami, I just end up doing the opposite of what you say” I said with a smirk and she rolled her eyes at me
“let’s get this over with, what dumb self destructive thing have you done now?” she asks with a sigh, Cami was my best friend and the only person I was comfortable enough to vent to about my messy life
“Well, Aurora and I had our first date last night” I started
“aww, that’s great Klaus, I am glad that you have worked through the misunderstandings”
“yeah, me too” I let out a sigh
“but?” she raised an eyebrow
“I don’t know..” I sat upright “it just doesn’t feel the same way”
“of course it doesn’t, you haven’t seen the woman in literally centuries and you’re not the same man you used to be. But I am sure that once you two start getting to know each other again you’ll fall in sync and everything will be fine” she assured me with a smile “do not be afraid to let her in Klaus, you have the tendency of shutting people out” she pointed an accusatory finger at me
“Well, she’s coming over for lunch at the compound, Elijah wants to apologize for the role he played in our breakup” I informed her
While my siblings and I were on the run from my father Mikeal as young vampires, we had taken refuge with Aurora’s family and I had fallen for her, even when she discovered that I was a vampire she did not go running for the hills, she still accepted me and wanted to be with me, in fact she begged me to turn her so that she could be with me forever but that was not the life I wanted for her, I did not want to turn her into a monster and Mikeal was on our tail wanting to kill us, a life on the run was no picnic. So I refused to turn her but she still found a way, she tricked my little sister Rebekah into turning her.
Everything was going well until Mikeal found us and we had to run away, I begged Aurora to go with me but she refused saying that wasn’t the type of life she wanted and she didn’t love me enough to make such a sacrifice, I was heartbroken but I guess deep down I knew it, I was a monster and no one would truly love me, no one would willingly choose to be with me after knowing what I really was. So with my broken heart, I fled with my family leaving Aurora behind.
It was centuries later when she showed up in new Orleans wanting to get her revenge on my brother Elijah and when I caught up with her looking for answers, I discovered that my very own brother had compelled Aurora to hate me and refuse to go with me, Aurora had been willing and ready to run away with me but Elijah stopped her.
I was really hurt and had a few words with Elijah in form of a fight which left the living room a mess and my brother bloody but we were family, I could not stay mad at him forever so we moved past it, and now Aurora and I are trying to rekindle the fire we once had.
.
After my therapy session with Camille I went back to the compound , Elijah had people busy preparing lunch and setting up the table.
“Niklaus” he approached the moment I entered “what time will your guest be arriving?” he asked me as he pulled on his sleeves
“you can’t even say her name?” he was unbelievable
“I still maintain that she is an unstable woman who is not good for you” he aired out his thoughts “but you are my brother and if she makes you happy I am willing to make amends”
“good, because you have a lot of amending to do” I said as I strutted towards the stairs, I was in need of a shower before Aurora could arrive.
An hour later we were seated at the table, Elijah and Freya looking at Aurora with suspicion. Kol couldn’t make it because he was out and about with his little with Davina, my sister was only god knows where with the younger Salvatore brother Stefan and Hayley was in an apartment across the compound with my daughter Hope, she was still mourning her dead husband Jackson and we were giving her the space she needed.
“so, why now?” Freya asked Aurora, she was always suspicious of people who came from our past because most of the time they were trying to kill us.
“well, in guess you didn’t hear, we had been running from Mikeal because your brothers saw it fit to use us as decoys but Mikeal is dead now” she responded
“let us not forget that your brother has had you locked up in a mental institution because you are unstable” chipped in Elijah and I growled at him
“can we not attack and insult my guest?” I spoke up to defend Aurora and she smiled at me, thankful that I was on her side.

The Mikealsons were having their intense and awkward dinner when they heard a voice by the entrance
“hello!! Klaus?!”
Klaus turned to Elijah just to confirm that he wasn’t hesring voices
“you hear that too right?” he asked and Elijah nodded
The two brothers got up and rushed to the door, when Niklaus saw who was standing there he froze for a minute, it couldn’t be, there was no way she would come to New Orleans.
“Klaus, thank God. Can someone please invite me in?” she requested as the barrier was keeping her out. Freya and Aurora had followed behind,  Niklaus turned to his sister
“Freya, invite her in” he instructed, they had put the house in her name to stop vampires from entering anyhow because he was still having a tug of war with Marcel trying to see who was really the king of new Orleans and he couldn’t have Marcel’s vampires entering the compound.
“who is she?” Aurora asked
“hi, am Caroline” the cheery blonde introduced herself with a smile as she sized up the redhead who didn’t look like a Mikealson.
“Ms Forbes” Elijah stepped forward, Freya was still eyeing Caroline, hesitating to invite the stranger into their home “what brings you to New Orleans?” he asked her.
