Little Wolf (A vampire diaries and the originals story)

Chapter 25

 I wake up in a cold sweat, catching my breath. I've been having bad dreams all week long. Ever since Klaus and I got into that argument. I usually don't wake up remembering them, but I wake up because I know that they are scary. I look at the clock.

'9:00pm', The clock reads. I remembered drifting off into sleep at about 7:30 because I was so tired from last nights fit of nightmares. Now I can't even fall back asleep. I quickly get out of bed and throw on a really sexy outfit. I have turned off my phone because the calls coming from Klaus have been non stop. I straighten my natural curls and apply some make up. I grab my purse and go downstairs. No one is home, no one is ever home. I get into my car and drive to the Mystic Grill. I'm just trying to get my mind off of the dreams.. And Klaus. I head into the grill and all eyes are on me. I sit down at the bar and put on my cute face.

"Hello beautiful, would you like a drink?" The college looking bar tender asks me.

"I would love one, thank you" I say, trying to be cute. The bar tender gives me the drink.

"On the house" He tells me with a wink.

"Thanks" I say as I put my lips to the small straw of my drink. I sit at the bar minding my own business and drinking my drink.

"Could I buy you a drink, love?" I hear the voice that sends shivers down my spine. Klaus comes to my side. I don't answer him, I just drink my drink. "Still mad at me I see" Klaus says as he orders a drink. I narrow my eyes at him.

"Well, if you didn't take the hint from not answering your calls, I'm not really sure what will make you take the hint" I say scolding him with my gaze.

"Oh I got the hint love. I just didn't expect to see you here, alone, dressed like this" Klaus snaps back at me.

"It's about my clothes now isn't it? I've made it perfectly clear that I need some space right now" I say as I get off the bar stool.

"Are you really going to continue this charade Penelope?" Klaus asks me as I am about to walk away from him.

"You accepted the fact that I might die at your hands Klaus, yes I am going to continue the charade" I retort getting angry with him. Thankfully the bar is crowded with college kids home on break so no one really pays attention to our fighting.

"When will you just let this one go? You seem to let everything else go! What is taking you so long to forget this one?" Klaus asks me angrily.

"Because I'm hurt Klaus. I'm hurt that you would even put me in that situation! I'm hurt that you would have even contemplated the thought of me getting hurt!" I say raising my voice at him.

"You know that I would never want to hurt you, Penelope" Klaus assures me, his eyes full of emotion. I feel myself wavering, but then I stand tall.

"But you put me in danger, and I need time Klaus. Just give me some space" I say as I walk into the crowd on the dance floor. When I look behind me, he didn't follow, he didn't chase me. I mean, that's what I wanted, right?

"Hey, are you okay?" I hear an unfamiliar voice ask me. I turn around and see a quarter back looking guy behind me. He looks about my age and he is pretty attractive.

"Um, yeah. I'm fine. Just boyfriend drama you know?" I ask him, putting my cute face back on, trying not to think of Klaus.

"Boyfriend?" The boy questions.

"Well... It's complicated" I say with a little laugh.

"I see, well, do you want to dance? Because I'm just going to be straight forward, you are insanely hot" The boy says smiling that typical quarter back smile. I laugh nervously.
