"I won! I won!" Penny screeched happily. Cami had brought over some old board games she had in her condo a few weeks back. Penny really liked Candy Land and it was something that Penny usually pressed Dana into playing with her.

"Yes, you did, again! Are you sure you didn't cheat?" Cami asked in mock surprise.

"No, Cami, it's just a game. That would be stupid," Penny said solemnly.

"Yes, it would. I think I'm tapped out on playing Candy Land today. Want to do something else? You were going to show me your drawings, weren't you?" Cami asked helping Penny put away the game pieces.

"Yes!" Penny said popping up to get her mini-portfolio in the art studio upstairs.

Klaus walked in the room a few minutes later, "More Candy Land?"

"No, we're done. I was beaten soundly three times. I cannot take another defeat," Cami winked.

Klaus bent down and kissed her on the cheek and whispered, "I cannot take you leaving again, my love. Will you stay again tonight?"

Cami laughed and said, "Maybe? How'd it go with the boys?"

"They seemed to really like the new bedroom! The new paddle I had made for them, not so much," Klaus admitted.

"No, another one? Klaus, tell me you're joking," Cami begged.

"No, but it's got one side for humans and one for hybrids so I thought it would come in handy. I went very easy on all of them and then made them take a nap. Camille, aside from Tyler, they all fell asleep in minutes! They must be up half the night fooling around...I wonder if they take advantage of the fact that when you're here that I don't lurk around the house at night checking on them," Klaus smiled.

"Or maybe they just were worn out and tired? How about this? I'll stay over tonight and we'll both check on them at least once. Will that work?" Cami offered.

"Yes, it would. You make me very happy. Where's Penelope?" Klaus asked.

"I'm here, Dad!" Penelope bounced in with her portfolio.

"Ah, your artwork. Camille, get ready to behold a great artist. Penny, show her your self-portrait," Klaus suggested.

Penny showed Cami her work and basked in the attention of being an only child for once. Elijah and Finn came in and Penny also showed them some of her work. Klaus and Penny decided to go upstairs and paint.

"We should see if Jeremy wants to join us?" Klaus added.
