The past has way of coming back

To be your comfort, your family...

Rebekah walks around the courtyard ordering people around while making sure everything was ticked off her list.

"Looks great." Rebekah turned at her girlfriends voice. And smiled "Hey love."

Claire laughed a little and kissed her girlfriends cheek "Tell me you're at-least paying these poor people and not just compelling them to run around?"

Rebekah rolled her eyes and smiles sarcastically "You wound me darling."

Claire raised a brow "Am I wrong."

"Very, Kara has been very generous and gave me her American Express card." She grinned "I went to town with the caterers and wedding essentials , after all you only get married once." Rebekah replied smirking.

Claire chuckled "Well .. today will go according to plan, in case you're wondering, no unexpected visitors or problems popping up."

Rebekah breathed a sigh of relief and dropped a kiss to Claire's lips "have I ever told you how happy I am that you're able to see the future?"

Claire stared at the original, taking in every feature, she never realized just how hard she'd fallen for Rebekah, seeing the future, seeing her own death.. made her resolute in avoiding any sort of romantic relationships and yet here she was. Falling for a woman she couldn't possibly have a future with "I love you." The words rolls of her tongue before she's able to stop it and she's quick to try and apologize for her word vomit but Rebekah's beaming smile makes it impossible to take back.

Rebekah put down her clipboard and cupped the witches cheeks "I love you too."

Claire's eyes wet with tears and she pushes away the memory of her dying instead she focuses on the right now.. "Yeah?"

Rebekah laughs "yes you goof."

Elijah stands beside Niklaus leaning on the bannister watching their sister laugh happily with her partner.

"I'm surprised you haven't read Claire the riot act yet." Elijah commented

Klaus rolls his eyes at the jab "I'm happy she's moved on from Marcellus. Claire is actually a wonderful person, just the right amount of sass to deal with Rebekah.."

Elijah snorts "You are right, I've watched them for months and it's as easy as breathing for them." He smiles enviously "The same can be said for Kara and Hayley."

Klaus shares the envious smile "Perhaps somewhere .. we'll find our happiness too brother."

Elijah doesn't share his brothers optimism, in all his years he found love twice and both times it was snatched away from him. He wasn't ready to try for a third "Perhaps.." he trails off clearing his throat "Has Kara said whether Ansel will be walking her down the aisle?"

"Not that I'm aware of , but given our sisters distaste for following tradition I don't believe he is..—" he was cut off by his phone ringing. He pulled it from his pocket "Speak of the devil." He said looking at the caller ID

"Kara we were just talking about you." He said in Lieu of greeting.

Kara chuckles slightly "Oh? About what?"

"Oh you know , whether or not you'll have father dearest walk you down the aisle or not." Klaus drawled

Kara sighs a little "would it kill you to accept his offer in wanting to start a father and son relationship with you Niklaus? He is trying..."

Klaus frowned , honestly it wasn't that he didn't want to, it was that he was afraid once he opened up to his father and accepted him as such, like so many things in his life it would disappear "when pigs fly" he deflects.
