Metanoia • Mikaelsons mate

Chapter 7

"Really, you guys can go home if you want, it's not going to get more exciting than this." Amara walks over to the Mikaelsons ten minutes into her shift.

She had occasionally glanced at them from the bar, checking if they weren't attacking customers. She felt a bit like a babysitter, but instead of cute four-year-olds, she got to deal with five thousand-year-olds. The Mikaelsons had taken it upon them to wave as exuberantly as possible whenever she looked their way, especially Kol who had almost jumped on top of his seat. This had earned both them and Amara some strange looks from regular customers.

"We are fine, thank you, my love." Finn replies. There was no way he would let his mate out of his sight after seeing how some customers had been gawking at her.

"Then... I will get you some drinks." Amara offers, quickly walking back to the bar where Jane was standing. Her friend had been shooting Rebekah winks and suggestive looks ever since starting her shift.

"So, you still haven't had... sexual relations?" Jane asks while making a suggestive movement with her hands, eyebrows wagging.

"Since when do you call it that?" Amara asks after slapping Jane's hands away, she knew the Mikaelsons were watching them and the last thing she needed was for Jane to give the men the impression that she was planning to have... sexual relations with them anytime soon.

"Since now." Jane shrugs.

"Why?"

"I'm trying to be more sophisticated for my lady. She's been around poets and stuff, I'm trying to catch up. Not sure how to dirty talk like a 1600's merchant, though..." Jane hums, grabbing some new glasses for the Mikaelsons, and placing a bright pink parasol in one of them, undoubtedly for Rebekah.

"I think she likes you just as you are." Amara chuckles, imagining some sort of Shakespeare talk coming from Jane. Jane was known for putting in the effort to charm girls off their socks. Jane had a lot in common with Brad in that department, he too had done all he could to impress Amara, which had unfortunately worked.

"Hmm, might be. Still, can't hurt to woo her with some pretty words."

"Amara! Jane! Darlings!" Charlie strides up to the bar, flashing the girls a grin whilst pushing a gruff-looking man out of the way as if it were nothing.

"Charlie." Jane and Amara greet their friend simultaneously.

"So, how are the soulmates? Any scandalous sex?" Charlie asks, not bothering to lower his volume. A lady close to them shoots Charlie a dirty look, which he replies to with a middle finger, not caring one bit seeing as he didn't work here.

"Ask for yourself. They are over there!" Amara puts on a bright smile while pointing at the booth where the Mikaelsons were seated. "Chiseled Jaw looks like he requires your company." Amara's smile turns into a smug grin when she sees Elijah's unamused expression.

"I can certainly help out on that front." Charlie winks before turning on his heel. Perhaps the Mikaelsons had some juicy gossips on his friends.

"Satisdiction." Jane mumbles, looking absentmindedly at the bottle of liquor in her hands.

"What's that?" Amara asks as she takes the bottle from Jane's hands and starts pouring the drinks.

"Another word I learned."

"In what context can you use it?" Amara asks interestedly.

"I have no idea, but I'm sure Rebekah will be impressed." Jane shrugs, placing the filled glasses on the tray.

"You're really going for it." Amara comments, grinning broadly at her friend while walking around the bar. She picks up the tray and makes her way over to the Mikaelsons and Charlie.
