CRAZY IN LOVE ♡ KOL MIKAELSON ♡

Chapter 2

I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the vaulted ceiling of the house. I looked to my right to see the empty spot beside me on the king-sized bed. A hard lump set in my throat before I looked away. I sat up and rubbed my face with my hand. I stood up feeling the white marble floor underneath my bare feet.

It's been so long since I've dreamt of Kol. I haven't dreamed of Kol since he-- since he went missing. He was with me when we went to sleep but was gone when I awoke. There were signs of struggle and haven't seen him since. Klaus has been protective of me since then.

I headed downstairs and sat at the table next to Klaus and across from Elijah. "Everything alright?" He asked. "I dreamed of him." I whispered. I noticed the two tense up. "Are you okay?" Elijah asked. I shrugged sitting back. "What do you think, Elijah? My husband is missing and I can't do anything about it. I've even tried locator spells. Someone must be cloaking him." I explained. "It'll be okay, Stiles. Kol can protect himself." Klaus said holding my hand and squeezing it gently. "Niklaus...it's been centuries. I have to face the facts." I stated. "What do you mean?" Elijah questioned. "That Kol is never coming back to me." I told him standing up abruptly and leaving the kitchen, leaving my two brothers-in-law in silence.

I sat in my bedroom against on the nook staring out the large window. There was a soft knock at the door. "Herry?" Klaus voiced calling me by his nickname for me. "May I come in?" He asked. I nodded my head in silence. He let out a sigh closing the door behind him. He walked over. "Is it all right if I sit here?" He asked pointing beside me. I looked down before shrugging my shoulders briefly. Klaus sat in front of me after removing his slip-on boots. "How long have we known each other?" He asked. I looked at him with a raised brow. "About 200 years." I answered quietly. "200 years you've been part of this chaotic family and you have yet to run away screaming." Klaus said with a chuckle. "If you have the strength to stay here and wait for your love...don't you think he has that same amount to get back to you?" Klaus asked putting his hand on my shoulder. "After all, Kol is about as stubborn as they come. You of all people should know that by now. Kol doesn't go down without a fight. Does he repeat the same mistakes over and over again? Yes. But there is one thing that he did in his life that he would do anything for...and that's you." Klaus explained. "Don't give up hope, Stiles. Your love will return. I promise you." He said before kissing the top of my forehead and stood up carrying his shoes out of the room. "I know I don't tell you this often...but I do love you, Stiles. You're my family. And it hurts me to see you like this. I only wish for you to be happy." He said before leaving closing the door behind him. I love you too, Nikky.
