The Enigma: A Klaus Mikaelson Love Story {1}

Chapter Three: The Crazies

Caroline and I had met Niklaus at the grill sitting by the bar drinking away his sorrows. Some things would never change.

"Let me guess? You walked?" Niklaus asked with a large smirked plastered onto his face.

"A century has passed and you still know me this well" I laughed.

"Not by choice. You're like a little nag in the back of my head that I can't seem to shake, despite my best efforts." I rolled my eyes at him.

"Can't even be nice to me for one second? Even when we have a guest with us? When did you become so inhospitable?"

"You were never there to find out" Niklaus growled at me, but I merely shrugged it off, knowing that I was here for Caroline and that had to take priority.

"Niklaus, I am trying here, can't you do me the same courtesy? Or at least for Caroline's sake?"

"Yeah Klaus" Caroline butted in. "Why do you have to be a jerk all the time?"

Klaus rolled his eyes. "It's my nature love, take it or leave it" he said glaring at me. "What even is this God awful alliance?"

Caroline began to fume, but it was unnatural and unwarranted. I felt as if I had looked into her mind and I could see she had a plan, she was hiding something from me. I wanted to delve further but my concentration was broken by her sharp outburst.

"Well, you two are obviously crazy, so I'm going to leave and spend time with the not crazies." She said and before I could stop her, she zoomed off.

"Well I guess it's just you and me Niklaus" I said sitting down next to him.

"Considering, I'm about to leave, it looks like it's just you love." I grabbed his arm and stared deep into his eyes.

"Stay, for me?" I asked and he immediately sat back down. I always had a way with the Mikaelsons, despite no one else being able to.

"So, my dear wife, why are you back here? Do you really want to be daggered?" He asked me, clutching onto his drink so tightly I thought the glass would break.

"I'm here for my friend. She asked me to come help her out with a certain someone and here I am." I said smiling smugly at him.

"And who would this be?" Niklaus said, clearly knowing the answer.

"Why who else but my stubborn husband?"

"And why would Caroline need help with me?"

"Because she cares about you" I said rolling my eyes tiredly. "And I know that she wants to be with you and you her" I said, unable to make eye contact with him.

"So you've lost so much love for me that you now choose to make me another's burden? Think I'll leave you alone if I'm with someone else?" He asked me, smiling sadly.

"Of course not. I love you Niklaus, and I want you to be happy" He scowled in disbelief. "Why is it so hard to believe that someone could love you and want to be with you?" I sighed.

Niklaus slammed his drink on the table. "Maybe it's because the one person that was meant to stay with me forever, till death do us part, still left me" He sneered.

And with that he stormed off, without so much as a glance back at me. I didn't even try and ask him to stay again. The two of us were a lost cause.

A/N

Well that was hard to write. Poor Klaus. He seemed really hurt, how did Fi even get him to stay?
P.S. Sorry this is a short chapter, the next one is longer and features a certain Salvatore as the focal point!!!
