Aria Salvatore x Klaus Mikaelson

Ray Sutton

Arias POV.

The sky was a sickening black as we drove through the night. The ground was bumpy and rough, the back roads. We've been in the car for far to long in silence. Mystic Falls far behind us, along with Damon.

I've stared out the window for so long my eyes are sore. I kept on staring. My chest felt like it's been clawed and beaten. Elena. She's gone. I don't know what to feel. I'm mad. I'm vengeful. Jenna's dead. I'm furious. It hurts.

Klaus hasn't mentioned a word of where we're going, who we're going to meet, what the hell he plans on doing with us.

I pushed down my thoughts of Elena. If I'm going to avenge them. I have to be smart.

Stefan is in the back and I can feel his brooding. I don't even have to look to know the scowl that's on his face. I've already planned my course of action. Wait till we're alone so I can talk to him. Make a plan. Find a way to contact Damon. Somehow destroy Klaus.

"So!" Klaus beamed making me startle and shove my thoughts deep down. I already know he's immortal and can do all kinds of things. Just tell me he can't read my thoughts.

"So the two of you reunited? How'd that happen actually? Catch me up love" Klaus chirped looking between us. Neither of us responded. Stefan isn't going to open his mouth.

So that leaves me. I could easily talk us into our graves.

"Ah. Well the silent treatment is-" I cut him off. "I went back to Mystic Falls. Stefan and Damon were already there. Yeah it was a surprise" I said.

I'm going to play his game. Get to know this man. See what he really wants. Then I'm going to make his life a living hell.

"So you just went back to Mystic Falls? Hardly for a day trip?" Klaus asked glancing to me. I shrugged in response.

"I heard Katherine was out of the tomb" I stated dryly he nodded. "And you Stefan?" he asked eyeing the rear view mirror. No response. Something tells me by the look in Klaus's eyes he doesn't like being ignored.

"Elena" Klaus began and I bit my tongue. "That's why you were here. But why did you come back?."

I looked to Stefan and he had the most heartbreaking look on his face I gave him a look of reassurance then turned back to the front.

Klaus looked to me and I didn't look back. I sighed quietly, closing my eyes sitting back in my seat.

"How about we play a game love lighten the mood" Klaus chirped. "Sure." I replied through gritted teeth.

"Well love you seem to love games" he smirked. "That would involve you actually knowing me" I retorted and he scowled.

"Aria. I just unlocked my werewolf side and I'm still getting used to the temper. So. If you know what's good for you. I'd watch your tone" he replied coldly.  "Your right. I'm a very bad person I apologise" I swayed with an apologetic tone. We glared at one another.

I rolled my eyes turning my back to him. I stared out the window yet again for what felt like years. I looked back to see Stefan had fallen asleep and somehow that gave me comfort to know he'd have a few hours of peace. I think there's only so much heartbreak he can take for today.

"He's fine love, stop worrying about him" Klaus suddenly spoke but keeping his eyes on the road. Now that's Stefan's asleep it's just me and this bollocks. I scoffed turning back to him.

"Don't you ever get bored of being a prick?" I asked quietly. "Don't you ever get tired of all your brooding?" he retorted.

"You just killed two of my bestfriends" I seethed with such distaste he finally met my eye. I glared right through him.
