Elijah and his brother Klaus were looking forward to celebrating the 4th of July with a huge ball. Everything was going perfectly.
But then Elijah finds out his girlfriend cheated on him. And Klaus, who was enjoying his life as a womanizer...
"Mr Mikaelson? One of the chemists is here. He wants to talk to you." Elijah's assisstant, a woman named Sabine, informed him.
The dark-haired man raised his eyebrows. "Oh? Don't the chemists normally go to the staff advisor when something's wrong?"
"Normally, yes. But this one says he needs to talk to you in person. Supposedly, it's urgent." Sabine replied.
He made a gesture saying 'alright then' and said: "Ask him to come in, please."

Meanwhile, Bonenzo residence
"I'm home, gorgeous!" Enzo tiredly called out.
Bonnie looked up from the book she was reading. "Hey. Wait, whoa, Enzo! Is that blood on your shirt?"
"Yes, it is. Not my blood, but blood nonetheless." her husband answered.
The raven-haired woman got up from her chair, her face adapting a pained expression for a moment. However, she quickly focussed on her husband instead. "What happened?"
"Some guy at the club turned out to be trouble. I caught him selling drugs. So naturally, I threw him out. He didn't like that. When I came out of the club, he was waiting for me. First he tried to threaten me to let him back in tomorrow and when I still refused, he went through with his threat and started a fight. Fortunately for me, the cameras caught all of it, meaning I can prove what he did. And unfortunately for him, it turned out I was the much better fighter. He had probably taken something or maybe he just isn't a very fit guy. Fact is, I handles him easily." Enzo explained. His wife could hear displeasure about the incident in his voice, mixed with a bit of pride of his skills.
She took his hand. "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
"Nah, it's nothing. Few scratches." he assured her. "But I could use a nap. With our little boy around, sleep's been a rather distant relative of ours, hasn't it?! As of now, Jesse is in Kindergarten and we are both free of work. I say let's take advantage of this rare pleasure."
Leaning in, the black-haired man gave his wife a peck on the lips, then slumped down on the couch and gestured for her to join him.
Bonnie looked at her husband with a hint of pity in her eyes. "My poor, exhausted, handsome husband. I'm afraid this nap is bound to be a short one."

"Hm? Why?"
She grinned meekly before another wave of pain flooded her body. "Because I've kind of been having contractions for about an hour now. My guess is our little one number two is coming soon."
"What?!" Enzo, suddenly wide awake again, jumped off the couch. "The baby's coming? Today? Oh god, wow! Come on, we need to get you to the hospital!"
"Relax, please!" the raven-haired woman put her hands on his arms. "I may be having contractions already, but my water hasn't broken yet. We'll go to the hospital once is does."
