Eternal Love - Klaus Mikaelson

26. Speechless

Heyy

I was wondering if maybe we could talk?

-Vivian

Good, I want to talk too. i was starting to think you'd get out of my way now.

-Klaus

Can I come to you now then?

-Vivian

Yes, Elijah and Rebekah are gone. That means we can talk in peace.

-Klaus

"You wrote to him!?" I yell in disbelief.

"Yes! Otherwise you would never talk!" Caroline justifies herself.

"She's right. Sooner or later you'll have to talk."

"Yes, I know, Elena, but it could have been later."

"Stop arguing. Vivian has to go to Klaus now." Damon interferes.

"No, I'm definitely not going to him now. You can forget it.

"You can't back out now. You wrote that you're coming now and he's waiting,"

"No Stefan, Caroline wrote it, not me."

"It doesn't matter now. Go to him! Now!"

"Ok, ok. I'm going already Wish me luck."

"Tell us everything then!" I hear Damon call out before I disappear out the door.

Now I'm standing here, in front of the mansion. I'm afraid to ring the doorbell. How should I behave? What exactly should I say? I'm so nervous. Just when I'm finally brave enough to ring the bell, the door is opened.

"Are you finally going to come in?"

"How did you know I was here? I haven't even rung the doorbell yet?" I ask, puzzled.

"Yeah, but I heard you* when you got here. I was going to wait for you to ring the bell, but since you've been standing here for five minutes doing nothing, I figured I'd just meet you halfway." he grins.

"Uh yeah, I was just about to ring the bell" embarrassed, I step inside and walk towards the living room.

Klaus has sat down across from me.

It must have been a few minutes since kemer said anything. The silence is very uncomfortable and I don't know if I should say something first.

Anyway, sooner or later I have to say something.

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" i the uncomfortable silence and look at Klaus.

"You wrote to me, didn't you?" he laughs softly to himself

"Well, you said you wanted to talk too. And to be perfectly honest, I didn't write that.

My friends stole my phone." i confess, avoiding eye contact.

All of a sudden he starts laughing, which makes me look at him questioningly.

"You think I don't know that? By now I know you well and I know you don't want to talk about the kiss because it makes you uncomfortable. When I got the message, I was really puzzled because I thought I was going to have to kidnap you so we could talk. I knew* it had to be one of your friends.

"Wow, ok... I didn't know you knew me that well." I laugh awkwardly.

"So, I'll be honest, I have no idea how to start this conversation. Nervously, I fidget in my seat.

"It's really amusing to watch how nervous you are." Klaus grins.

"I knew you'd make fun of me." I roll my eyes in annoyance.
