She's my yellow/ Hosie/Hizzie

Always and forever Saltzman

5 years later, in London, England.

"Hope come on we're going to be late" Screams a blonde from downstairs.

"Okay okay i'm ready jesus" I complain back, adjusting my jumpsuit.

"You look stunning" I say lost for words, looking at my wife.

"I know" Lizzie begins to laugh.

"Here just for the ride" I hand her a blood bag, grabbing myself one too.

"I'll never get used to drinking this stuff, You'd think after 2 years i would" Lizzie giggles while chugging the bag.

"I'm still not used to it" I reassure her.

"Now come on, we'll be late on our first day" I grab her hand as we rush to the car.

Over the past year or two we'd set up a school for the supernatural overseas, Like the Salvatore School... but over in England.

Suprisingly theres alot of applicants this year, ranging from Werewolves to Hybrids.

We decided to open it on September 16th, the day Lizzie decided to turn for the sake of sparing her sister in the merge, It worked... 

Alaric had since retired and left the Salvatore school over to Josie and her long term partner Jade, To avoid confusion ours was named 'The Mikaelson School for the young and gifted'.

For the special occasion however we were expecting the visit of both Jade and Josie, to open it up.

The day Lizzie decided to become a heretic, i knew i had forever with her, so proposing wasn't exactly off the table, and honestly it had been the best decision of my life... she even turned using my blood, which we was scared would create a sire bond however luckily it did not.

The only regret is that we couldn't have children, i would've liked for her to experience that, but apparently she didn't mind... so that was good enough for me.

I begin to laugh by myself in the car, recalling how much we'd been through and overcome.

"What are you laughing at" Lizzie questions.

"Nothing nothing, just remembering how scared i was of you when i first saw you, now look at us" I giggle.

"I wasn't even scary" Lizzie tries to argue but to no avail.

"You broke my arm the first day i met you at the game" I recall.

"You healed" Lizzie says sarcastically.

"Not the point" I laugh.

"Fine fine, i could've been nicer to you" Lizzie submits.

"Ahh glad you think that i'm worth it" I tease.

"Of course you are" Lizzie starts to bop her head to the music.

"Oh my god there they are" Lizzie squeals as she slams on the breaks of the car and rushes out.

I barely have time to process as Lizzie runs over to Josie and Jade, swooping them into a hug.

I decide to get out, to be honest it wasn't as awkward as you might think... Jade was treating her right which is what i wanted... so i couldn't complain.

"Heyy Jade" I go to hug her, we had become quite close friends since we left for London, always checking in on one another.

I break the hug and turn my interests to Josie.

Sure there was still some unresolved tension, but it wasn't jealousy or negative.

"Hey Jo" I give her a hug.

"You two been alright, you know with the whole... Vampire thing" Josie questions.

"Lizzie fortunately isn't a ripper, she's suprisingly got good control" I speak, Lizzie knocking my arm as a 'fuck you' gesture.

"Yeah its been okay, I feel better... Sometimes its hard, but i have Hope" Lizzie explains, looking at me with the same look she shot me years and years ago.

"Lets do this ay?" Jade cuts the conversation short, hinting at us to all walk over to the new school surrounded my rope, for us to cut to initiate the school opening.

"Its my greatest honour for me to be stood here today, Presenting a safe and secure environment for the supernatural here in London, We're overwhelmed with the support from you all and can't wait to see where this journey takes us" Lizzie speaks infront of the crowd, stood on a podium.

Holding the huge scissors and hinting at me to come up there and help her.

Lizzie takes position behind me as she still towers above me in height, wrapping her arms around me to represent us doing it together.

"Lets do this thing" Lizzie whispers into my ear, as we both snip the rope.

"And the Mikaelson school is officially open" Lizzie squeals, wrapping me in for a hug.

"Wow we really just did that" i whisper in disbelief.

"Ahh i can't believe it" Lizzie says excitedly.

"I love you so fucking much Saltzman" I ignite the nickname i used for her back at school.

"I love you too Marshall" Lizzie does the same, even using my oldest nickname.

"Always" Lizzie grasps my hands.

"And forever"
