The moment Ethan let's Y/N go, she goes running to Klaus. She doesn't even let herself clean up the bloody nose he gave her.

"What did he do to you?" Klaus questions with wide eyes.

"Nothing too terrible," Y/N shrugs slightly, avoiding his gaze knowing this is her fault.

He gently places his hands on her face, carefully examining the damage, "We need to put some ice on that".

Y/N sighs, knowing Klaus is right. The two find some ice, wrap it in a cloth and place it on her wounds.

Violet walks in, stopping in her tracks upon seeing the girl hurt, "What happened?"

"Ethan," Klaus spits bitterly.

"That boy?" Violet questions, making sure she understands.

"Yeah, he's relentless," Y/N scowls slightly.

"I'm really sorry, Y/N. We will get you out of this situation, I promise," Violet offers a comforting hug, which Y/N happily accepts. "I hate to leave you by yourself, but we have to finish our tasks around the town if we are ever going to gain any trust. Will you be okay?"

"I'll be fine," Y/N nods, giving a small smile.

Klaus kisses her cheek goodbye, before heading back out with his sisters. Y/N sighs, fidgeting with the ice in her hand, thoughts swarming her mind of how to escape Ethan. She doesn't get much time alone before the door swings open.

"Ah, there you are. I just wanted to see how you are doing," a male voice speaks.

Y/N instinctively stiffs, spinning around on her heel to face him, "Yeah right. What do you really want, Olaf?"

"I thought you would like to know that you won't have to worry about Klaus anymore," a slight smirk tugs at his lips.

"What do you mean?" the girl questions, taking what he says with a grain of salt.

"I found someone to replace you. Just thought I would let you know," Olaf grins.

"Why are you even doing this?" Y/N scowls, stepping closer.

"It does me good to see you suffer the most. See you around, orphan," the nasty man pats her head, condescendingly.

"Wait".

"What is it?" Olaf rolls his eyes.

"Did you...ever care about me? Before the Baudelaire's came," Y/N mentally cursed herself for asking such a stupid question.

"Probably not, no," Olaf replies simply.

"Oh..." the girl whispers, already knowing the answer. It still stings.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Through the course of the day, Y/N and Klaus decided it is best to finish their tasks separately. They don't want any more unnecessary battles between Olaf's new minions and each other. But Y/N grows more and more irritated by the minute, watching a girl hang all over him. Thankfully, the long day has drawn to an end, and they arrive back at the house.

"I am being driven insane," Klaus sighs, coming to Y/N's side.

"Why? That girl? What has she been doing?" Y/N questions.

"She's very...clingy. And she just-she won't leave me alone," he explains.

"This is so stupid," Y/N groans.

"I really miss you," the boy takes her hand.

"I miss you too," Y/N musters a small smile.

"Why are you talking to her?" a girl walks over, a wide fake smile across her face. She plants a loud, wet kiss on Klaus's cheek.
