"Did you or did you not know Anna was pregnant?" . A flood of feelings rushed over her, she went from angry to Realization to a 'oh shit' moment. She did have another secret to tell. Only, it wasn't her secret to tell, she was just being helpful to a friend. But she knew harry wouldn't see it that way, at least not right now. The only thing he would see was that she lied to him, yet again! "Answer me!" He demanded. She jumped back a step. The whole room turned to look at her. "No. i mean yes! But not the way you're implying!" She told him. He scoffed. "Harry.." elijah beckoned him. "I didn't mean to lie to you, I was just-" "save it." Was all he said cutting her off and walking out with his siblings. "Harry? Harry! Wait!" Selena said running after him. "Selena!" Rose called after her. "It's better to let him be right now..." she finished. "No! I understand he's upset, but it shouldn't be with me this time!" Selena said snatching her arm back and walking out the door. In the hall, the Mikaelsons made they're way to a room that held Anna. Harry, clearly till angry was walking (or storming) ahead of his siblings. "Harry slow down." Elijah tried to tell him. "Why? So you can take her side again?" Harry said over his shoulder. "I'm didn't take her side." He said. "Yes you did!" Harry said turning around to face his brother. "You knew that She knew Anna was pregnant, and you heard me talking to nik about Selena and I, about how there will be no more secrets between us. But you knew she was still lying to me and yet you didn't say anything!" Harry yelled. His face was a clear picture of anger. If any normal person were to look at him they might have ran away from him considering he was a original vampire. But when elijah looked down at him he seen other things. He seen pain, betrayal, he seen his little brother with pleading eyes asking 'out of anyone in the world why, my brother, would it be you to hurt me?'. He reach out to touch his shoulder. "Harry I'm-" he stopped talking when harry moved from under his hand. Having seen enough rebekah decided to step in. "Harry really, it's not Elijah's fault. And if I'm being honest, as much as I Dont want to admit it, I Dont believe Selena is at fault either..." she told him. Harry looked between his two siblings and finally walked away from them. "Harry!" A voice called. He turned to see Selena marching down the hall towards their way, with a pissed off look upon her face. "Oh c'mon!" Harry said turning to enter the room. It was quite a big room too, so big to the point where it had little individual rooms in it. He walked in, with rebekah, elijah and Selena right behind him. "What's going on...?" Finn asked coming out from one of the little back room. "Just a bunch of liars but what else is new?" Harry answered. "I am not a liar!" Selena and elijah said in Union. "Oh look! Someone's fighting and it doesn't involve me." Klaus said emerging from the same room Finn came out of. "Shut Up!" Selena told him. She was sick of him. "No, you shut up!" Harry suddenly told her. Surprised, she turn her anger back on him. "You shut up!" She said. "You shut up!" he said to her. "You shut up!" She repeated back to him. "Both of you shut up! Gosh! That is really annoying." Rebekah said stepping in the room now. "What's wrong those you two?" Finn asked. "They're sexually frustrated!" Rebekah yelled out her answer. "Bekah! Quiet!" Elijah warned. "You Dont get to be mad this time." Selena said to harry. "I Dont?! You still lied to me!" Harry told her. "I had a reason to! Oh, and newsflash! It had nothing to do with you!" She said. "Oh yeah? And what was that reason? Hmm?" He asked. "Because I asked her to." A voice spoke up. They turned to see Anna coming out of the back room where nik and Finn came. "You were suppose to lay down and rest back there." Niklaus told her. "I know, but I couldn't stay in there and let Selena take the blame." She said stepping into the room now. "It's not her fault harry. I asked her not to say anything...even though she told me to tell you all. Overall, it was my decision, not her. And she, as a good friend, respected that." Anna told them all. The room was silent for a moment. Rebekah, who was now sitting on nik's lap, was the first to speak. "...well.." she said with a smile. "Bekah....." klaus warned with a smile of his own. He knew she was going to say something. "I think you drop your face somewhere in the hall there, harry!" She finished. "Shut up!" He told her. "Oh no, Dont take it out on her now. She's right! And you own me an apologize!" Selena told him with folded arms. "No, I Dont believe I do." He said. "No, Harry's right. He doesn't own you one....... he owns you and elijah one!" Niklaus said to her. Selena turned to harry and said. "....anything I ever thought about you was wrong. You are a selfish, spoil, immature little child and you can find another girl to make you an official prince because it won't be me." And with that she turned to walkout of the room, but not before harry called out to her "No. I Dont think I'll have to find someone else. Remember why you're here, darlin'. Because I wanted you here. And remember how you got here. Because I kidnapped you and dragged you here. So think about this when you lay your pretty little head down to go to sleep tonight. You will do whatever the hell I want, When I want it...... Princess." He spit that last word out. She stared at him for a moment, but then she thought about all the tales she heard about while growing up about the Mikaelsons. They really are monsters. She walked out and left the room. "Well, someone's been taking notes from me." Nik said with a smile. "He sure did..and that's what I was afraid of." Elijah said. - the next morning, although more peaceful, was the same as yesterday. Dark with clouds and rain outside. It was one of those cozy, sleep in late mornings. From upstairs Caroline was the first one up, or at least she thought she was. She stepped out of her room to run into zayn. "Oh! Oh my goodness! Zayn, you scared me!" She said placing a hand over her chest. "I'm so sorry. I was actually looking for Selena, I thought she might have slept in here with you last night?." He asked. "Oh no. She didn't, she slept in her own room. And I think she still asleep, she went to bed kind of late, I think she was arguing with the prince.." she told him. "Hmm.... do you think you can give her this note?" He asked pulling a piece of paper from the inside of his jacket and handing it to her. "It's really important." He said. "Sure! I will gladly make sure she gets it." Caroline said taking the paper and sticking it in her corset. "..Interesting hiding place" he told her. "my mother always said 'the best hiding places are the one's right in front of you'" she said with a laugh. He stared at her for a moment. "Get it? 'Right in front of you'? Because they are right..." she trailed off. "Right....." was all he said before walking off. Zayn walked down the hall till he got to Elena's room, where he knew his older brother Stefan was. He knocked at the door. "Come in!" Elena yelled from inside the room. He came in, and surprised, he saw the maid Anna in there as well. She was tying Elena's corset up, she turned her head to him. "Hello lord zayn." She said. "Hello Anna. Um..I thought you were suppose to be resting." He told her. "Oh I was. But I got restless so I decided to help Jenna out with dressing the women this morning. Can't stand still for to long, I guess." She said. "I been telling her to go sit down but she won't go!" Elena told him with a laugh. "Yes, I wish she would 'go' too" zayn said under his breath. "Did you say something?" Stefan, who was lounging on a nearby sofa watching his fiancé get dressed, asked him. "..no." he answered innocently. He had very different feelings about Anna then everyone else had. Long story short: he didn't like her at all. "Come! Have a drink with your brother?" Stefan asked moving over to the bar that was stocked mostly with blood. "Sure, why not?" He said walking to the bar. "Okay. Since you are not going to tell me, I will ask. What's going on with you and Selena?" Stefan asked him. As you would expect, Zayn was more than stunned by this question. So stunned he briefly choked on the blood he was drinking. "What?! What are you talking about?!" He asked though his coughs. "I'm your brother so I know you better then anyone, but it's also not that hard to tell that you become different around her. More.... open, I guess you could say." Stefan said. "I-i Dont know what you're talking about.." he said, growing quiet about the situation. "Zayn. Look at me. Tell me what's wrong." Stefan told him. Just as he opened his mouth to say something Elena said. "He doesn't know what you're talking about." They were confused as to why she would say that until they heard the door come open as harry stuck His head around the door to peak in. "Zayn! There you are, I was looking for you. Hello Elena." Harry said stepping in the room. Now Stefan and zayn understood why she cut them off from talking. "Good morning harry!" Elena said with a smile. "Oh! Hey harry, come have a drink with us." Zayn said, stopping the conversion he was having with his brother. Stefan gave him a glass and then harry asked "so, what are we talking about?". - Since it was almost time for dinner, Selena opened the doors to the dining room to look for Anna, but instead she found bonnie and Damon setting the table Or somewhat setting the table. He kept whispering something into her ear that would make her stop and giggle. "Am I interrupting something?" She said walking in. "Good evening Selena." Damon said as he went back to placing the china down on the table. "How are you?" Bonnie asked. "I'm fine thank you, I was looking for Anna, I heard she was still working today. have you seen her?" Selena said. "I haven't, Damon?" Bonnie asked turning to him. "She's upstairs in the flat, packing." He said. "Packing? For what?" Selena asked. "She's leaving the castle." He answered. Then it came to her, Selena knew exactly why she was leaving. "Harry!" She yelled as she Stormed out of the dining room and headed upstairs. She climbed the stairs all the way to the top, till she got on top level to reveal that there was 6 doors that formed a circle around the stairs. Last time she was up here, it was dark and Jenna showed her where it was. Now that she was by herself, she didn't know which room was Harry's. So, she decided to check them all out. The first door she knock at had no answer, she open the room door to see no one was in there but it did have a bunch of suitcases and a dress was on the bed that looked like one she seen Esther Mikaelson wearing one night, she then realized this was mama and papa Mikaelson's room. She closed the door moved on to the next one. Again she knocked and received no answer. She opened the door to find a room that was quiet but had a lot of painting material everywhere, then she remembered that earlier in the day Caroline told her that nik liked to paint a lot, so she knew this was niklaus's room. She closed the room door and went on to the next one. She opened the door thinking that she would find yet another empty room. But instead she opened the door and gasped. She threw her hand over her mouth as she looked in the room and seen nothing but dead bodies and blood everywhere. The smell of decayed came rushing out and almost made her faint. Men, women, and even small children laid dead on the bed, the floor, everywhere you turned there was a body. With a shaky breathe, she slowly backed away from the room and immediately bumped into someone. She quickly turned to face it. "Why are you snooping around Kol's room?" Harry asked her. Kol? This was Kol's room? ".....do you see what's in there?" She asked quietly. He looked pass her. "Well, that's disturbing." He answered. "It's disgusting!" She said turning away from the room. "Now you see why we keep everyone away from Kol himself, let alone his room. You go back downstairs and I'll handle this." He told her. She nodded and started to walk downstairs but then she remembered why she came up here in the first place. "Why are you making Anna leave?" She asked regaining her strength and anger. He turned. "What are you talking about?" He said with an attitude. "You heard me. Why are you making her leave?" She asked standing up to him now. "You know what sweetheart? I'm beginning to think that you anger management problems." He said. "No, I think that's your psycho brother, not me. And Dont call me sweetheart, because I'm anything but." She told him. "Fine, princess. Do you like that one better?" He asked with a smile. Now she was mad. "It's funny how you say I have anger management problems, yet, you're the one who will throw a 'hissy fit' when someone says no to you." She said. "No I Dont, I simply get upset when someone lie's to me. You should know that." He told her. "Really? You Dont throw a fit? So you threw Anna out because you wanted too? Not because I 'hurt your feelings' " she asked. Mocking him. "Shows how much you actually know. I didn't throw her out, she's going to live with the Salvatore's. Considering she is having one of the brothers baby. She wants to be with his family and they want her close to them since she is now carrying a part of Louis in her stomach." He told her. ".......oh." all of a sudden, she wasn't so confident in her argument anymore. "Why would you think I would throw her out?" He asked. "Because you're head over heels for me, obviously." She told him trying not to show how embarrass she really was. "Me? Oh no no. See, it's you who likes me. You're just so afraid of telling anyone about it, you won't even tell yourself." He said to her. What the hell was he? A mind reader? She thought. "Only in your dreams prince harry, goodbye now." She said turning to walk downstairs. And next thing she knew she was up against a wall, harry in front of her. "Admit it." He said with a smile. "Are you crazy?" Was all she could asked. "...little bit. I think I get it from my siblings." He said with bright green eyes. "Let me go." She told him, he wasn't holding her but he had his arms on either side of her so she couldn't leave. "Not till you admit it, go on. You will sleep better at night." He said. "You really are a piece of work, Mikaelson." She told him. He giggled a little. "I want you to tell me how I make you feel." He asked. "Sick." She answered. " 'sick' as in disgusting or 'sick' as in butterflies and rainbows and all that good stuff?" He asked sincere. "....neither." she answered. "And I'm the piece of work?!" He said laughing. "What do you want me to say?" She asked. "What you really feel! That's all." He said. She was fed up with him. "Fine! Want to know how I feel about you? Annoyed. You just seem to pop up everywhere, and if you're not in the same room as me, you're running through my head at night with your annoying accent! I think you're self-centered and selfish! And if you think I'm going to do 'whatever the hell you want, when you want' then you are sadly mistaken-" she was cut off when two soft lips fell upon hers. It was a kiss from a Prince, a Vampire Prince that is. It wasn't rough, it wasn't forced, it was simply a kiss from a boy. And it was a Good kiss. When he pulled away she wanted to tell him how he just crossed a line. How he overstepped his boundaries, but what came out of her mouth was "I like you." "I like you too." He said back to her. - Caroline and klaus walked in from the garden arm and arm together. As always, ever since they got engaged, they have been linked to each other. "She never taught me any harsh magic, just spells to defend myself." She was telling him about her mother. "She sounds great, no wonder she had a perfect daughter." He told her. As they stood in the doorway. "What's your mum like? She couldn't have always been like this. What was she like growing up?" She asked with arms around his waist. "Although my father was even worst, let's just say, she's the reason I started murdering people." He said, and that was the nicest thing he could think of saying about her. "Aw and why is that?" She asked. "Because she didn't hug me enough!" He said laughing. "That's not funny! But, I will make sure that I hug you enough, and kiss you enough, and love you enough." She told him. "Do you promise?" He asked. "Only if you promise." She said. "I promise I'll love you to the moon and back!" He said dramatically. She laugh at first but then her smile faded and she pulled away from him. " what's wrong?" He asked noticing her change. "You- I'm sorry. What did you say?" She asked. "When?" He asked her, very confused. "You know what? Never mind it. I think all the running around we did today is starting to get to me so, I'm just going to retired for tonight." She told him. "Caroline..." he said, worried about her now. "I'm fine nik, really. Just tired, is all. I'll see you tomorrow okay?" She said as she made her way upstairs. "Okay. G-good night, love." He told her, still worried. "Goodnight!" She yelled over her shoulder. As soon as she walked away from his eyes, she ran the rest of the way. She didn't go to her room, like she told him, instead she ran to Selena's room. She opened the door, without knocking, and found her sitting on her bed with a very goofy grin on her face. "Selena!" She said coming in and closing the door behind her. "There you are! I been looking for you. Listen, I have something to tell you." she said jumping off the bed and going over to her. "I have something to tell you too." Caroline said out of breath. "Good! Me first. I found a very, very good reason for me to stay. We Dont have to Leave!" She told her with a smile. "Great. I found a good reason for me Not to stay. We have to leave." She said. "What? What are you talking about? What do you want to leave?" She asked her. Then Caroline told her with tear-filled eyes. "......I think niklaus killed my mother...".
