Elena's Cousin( The Vampire Diaries/Twilight crossover)

Thirty Three

The lights were switched on by someone. I didn't know whether I should be relieved with the fact that I could see clearly now or regret for seeing.

I was too shocked that I even forgot to breathe, if that was even possible or ever happened to anybody in this freaking universe. I let out a huge breath and stared at the guy standing not more than five feet from me.

I looked around and found one of the Salvatore brother, Damon, Elijah and Edward. And yeah, all were looking at me, worriedly as if I was gonna be executed. Or maybe be I was?

"Trixie, shut up. You're not gonna be executed." Edward voiced my wonderful thoughts. 

"Thanks for conforming that out loud." I shifted my attention to the blonde guy again.

"Did she really think that?" I heard Damon ask Edward. Grrr. There's always someone who would embarrass you somehow or the other, no matter how careful you are.

"Do you remember me?" The blonde asked, stepping forward. Gosh! That accent was so creepy. But I didn't have to be terrified anymore of this accent. My dad was dead but for a second I thought it was him when the lights were turned off.

"You thought this was your dad?" In a second, Edward got to my side and held my shoulder. Of course, he would have read my mind.

Edward looked too concerned or he should have thought that I was becoming a freak.

"No, I didn't think you were a freak." He replied to my thought.

"Oh! Stop with the mind reading business, Ed." I said slapping his hand off of my shoulders.

I heard the blonde clear his throat and I brought back my attention.

"No, I don't remember you." I said, trying my best not to sound rude. But, guess I did just that. His face changed for a second but came back to its previous form, cheerful.

He was about to say something but I had to open my mouth, "But I feel that we have met before."

Seriously, it was too confusing. He looked familiar and also as a stranger to me.

"Glad that you feel that way, after all these years." He sounded pleased with my answer.

"Trixie, you know him?" Damon asked, more like barked from across the living room.

I sighed and turned away. I wasn't in a mood to deal with my ex-boyfriend at the moment.

"So, you really knew him?" Now it was the Edward's turn to repeat Damon's question.

"Stop with the questions. I think you both are giving her a head ache." By now the blonde was standing right in front of me and Edward held my hand, without making it obvious. All of a sudden, I felt the tension in the air but I couldn't figure out what was wrong.

"You don't have to stress too much on the fact about our past encounter, love." The blonde cupped my face and was looking straight into my eyes with a cute smile and dimple. His eyes were too adorable.

Damn, Edward squeezed my hand and I couldn't even scream.

"You didn't answer our questions yet." Damon said.

I held the blonde's hand and slowly removed it from my face.

"Oh! I don't have an answer for that." I answered to Damon, still holding the blonde's hands.

"Surely you do. This is Klaus we're talking about and we need answers." Damon was full on barking-at-me mode.

"Klaus?" I asked, facing Damon.
