Her Mate / Xavier Thorpe

"Date night"

Melody POV

I was in Xavier's room listening to music, and we are having a little competitive. drawing see who can draw the best, and we are going to ask Enid and Ajax to see who's is better.

I was drawing a wolf as he was drawing something else. I caught him looking at me.

"Hey, no looking," I said as he giggled and shook his head.

"So I can't admire my beautiful girlfriend, who looks absolutely stunning in black and purple," I'm wearing purple t-shirts and black leggings with combat boots.

I giggled as I looked back at my drawing, and it looked good, but I've been looking down on my art when I saw Hope Marshall AKA, my sister, on an art website.

So yet again, I'm overshadowed by my sister, who has all of our family talent.

I looked at my drawings as I finished some shading for the background, and I thought it looked good, but I was done.

"I'm done," I said, not sounding excited about it. Xavier looked to me as I looked at my drawings. He took it, and without looking at it, he puts it, facing his bed so that he can't see it.

"What's wrong, bebe?" He asked as he looked at me as I looked to the ground.

He sighed as he took my chin into his hand and made me look at him.

"Talk to me," he said as I looked at almost crying.

"I hate it," I said, looking at the notebook facing his bed.

"Why? I've seen your art. You're so good at it almost better than me, almost," he said as he looked at me.

"What's wrong, baby?" He asked as I started crying.

"Hope I saw her on an art website where you can sell your art and promote your art, and she was the number one artist and I was so close to getting that spot then she swoops on and takes it from me," I said crying as he took me into his arms.

"Melody Mikaelson, listen to what I'm going to say," he says as he holds me as I cry into his chest.

"Don't let Hope, Bianca, or anyone take your confidence, or the fire the lives in you, when I meet you, you had a very low tolerance for bull shit, and you still do don't let her take that away from you," he said as he picked me up and moved my notebook and we layied on his bed.

We layied on his bed, talking about stupid things and laughing at stupid things.

"So I called my dad yesterday, and he, Devina, and Marcel are coming to family week. Is your dad coming or not?" I asked as he looked at me.

"No, he is buys with something he can't make it," Xavier said as I layied my head on his chest.

"So you can meet my dad and mom and spend time with them, yeah," I said as he laughed nervously.

"Your scard of them, aren't you?" I asked as he looked at me.

"Somewhat yeah, I know what they can do, and I what they will do if I hurt you," he said as I giggled.
