Forbidden (Klaus Mikaelson Love Story) #1 in the Forbidden series

Chapter 32

I arrived at the Boarding House just as Elena, Bonnie and a very grumpy looking Stefan were leaving for school "hey humans, Stefan, Bye" I went to enter the house through the door that they left open for me and as I tried to enter the house I slammed into an invisible barrier on the front door, I looked through the doorway and saw Damon snickering at me from the parlour "alright which human owns it?" I asked the others who were stopped behind me as I pressed my hand against the barrier, pushing against it.

I glanced over your shoulder at the Doppelgänger who was smiling at me "me" she said pointing at herself "I already know you wont fight me on my decisions" I stepped back as she entered the house and continued to smile at me brightly "would you please come in, Miss Salvatore?" I felt the barrier drop and I stepped through the door and tugged Elena's hair gently as I passed and smacked Damon on the back of the head as I wen to flopped down on the couch.

"I have never been happier to sit on this couch," I mumbled as I laid down face first onto one of the throw pillows, "I'm so tired"

"Where'd you go last night?" Damon asked as he threw me a blood bag that he'd gotten from down stairs and suddenly I was ravenous as hell "Stefan and Elena said that you disappeared when you went to get a drink and then stuff went down with John and Isobel, you weren't anywhere to be found" he raised eyebrow and looked at the now empty blood bag in my hands.

"The last thing I remember was being at the Lockwood house and then nothing after that" I laid back  and closed my eyes, letting the blood work its way through my veins "I woke up at Ric's and he said something about finding me drunk and taking me back to his and letting me sleep it off" I shrugged, usually because of my vampirism I didn't get drunk easily and I didn't even remember drinking a second glass of scotch.

"Hmm" Damon mumbled but didn't push the point, he could probably see how confused I was about the whole situation, he threw me another blood bag and chuckled when I caught it easily.

~ Hours Later ~

"So we go to the dance, we find him" Damon mumbled pacing the parlours rug as I rubbed my hands up and down my arms nervously, I glanced at Elena and could see she was just as tense as I was, Stefan stood behind Damon's pacing form, away from his girlfriend, he was clearly upset with her for putting herself in danger.

"Really? How are we going to do that? We don't even know what he looks like" Stefan grumbled, his face pinched.

"Something tells me he's not going to be 16 and pimply" Damon said and all eyes turned to me, I felt like lying but if Klaus was here he was too close and he knew I knew about Elena which meant he was going to be pissed.

"Blonde, blue eyed and hot as hell" I said making Damon groan in disgust when I winked at him, he didn't want to know what I thought of Klaus' looks and that just made me really happy.

"He could anywhere at any time, he compelled somebody at school" Stefan looked at Elena and Bonnie with his disappointed face on and I grinned larger, his disappointment was like a parents with a rowdy child, "guess it wasn't as safe as you thought, huh?" There was a knock on the door and Ric came waltzing in, he was late which was weird and he knocked which was even weirder, he hardly knocked especially when we knew he was coming over.

"There you are" I said as he entered the room like he owned it, his dark button up shirt had its collar turned up and for a moment a feeling surfaced, before I could even think about the feeling a white hot pain shot through my head and I winced.

"Sorry I'm late" he chuckled when he looked at me, the smirk on his face lingered as he took in the rest of the room before his eyes landed back onto me and something flashed through them, it wasn't the usual amusement or disappointment, it depended on what I was up to in front of him.
