Chapter Two:
In The Light Of
The Moon

1731

"I've got you," Sébastien whispers to Klaus in a repetitive mantra as he cradles the man in his lap rocking back and forth on the floor of their bedroom in their mansion in Venice, Italy.

"Got me," Klaus whispered softly in a shaky childish voice, his lips closing ever so slightly on his thumb as it lingered near his mouth. The hybrid was just a very young boy in this moment, broken and abused.

His mind had kept on spiraling around thoughts of Mikael Mikaelson, The Commander of Death, The Vampire Who Hunts Vampires, and most of all the no good father. Although, this time, his mind would not allow the thoughts of his father to linger any longer. Soon enough his father's memory became a haze, as did every memory outside of sitting in the lap of Sébastien De Mikaelson.

"Yes, baby boy," Sébastien whispers in a calming voice, meant for a small child, "I've got you."

Sébastien then stands up with Klaus in his arms and sits himself on the bench at the end of the bed. He places Klaus on his left knee and starts to rhythmically bouch his leg up and down while rubbing the boy's back.

"Au clair de la Lune," Sébastien began singing in French, a song he has known not long but liked;

Mon ami Pierrot
Prête-moi ta plume
Pour écrire un mot

As he continues to sing, Klaus slowly calms down in his lap as the bouncing continues.

Ma chandelle est morte
Je n'ai plus de feu
Ouvre-moi ta porte
Pour l'amour de Dieu

Eventually Klaus begins to giggle and try to sing along but struggles as his speech isn't the greatest as of now.

Au clair de la Lune
Pierrot répondit
Je n'ai pas de plume
Je suis dans mon lit

Va chez la voisine
Je crois qu'elle y est
Car dans sa cuisine
On bat le briquet

Au clair de la Lune
On n'y voit qu'un peu
On cherche la plume
On cherche le feu

Sébastien smiles at Klaus as the two sing together, and soon the song had to be brought to an end.
