Out of the Box {A Vampire Diaries Fan Fiction}

Chapter 7

Andorra had been studying Klaus for a while. She knew he went out to the pond on the edge of town to sketch at around noon. It was Thursday, and ten to twelve. Andorra was playing the harp Apollo fashioned for her and she was wearing a loss long sundress. Her black curly hair hung low on her shoulders. She knew Klaus was watching her, and she also knew he was intrigued just as she hoped.

"Hark my love I call to thee, True to you and you to me, I'll sail across the clear blue sea"-

"To be loved by thee, my love true lady of the sun," Klaus song as he walked over to her. Andorra pretended to be afraid as she got up and backed away. "Don't stop on account of me," Klaus pleaded.

"I'm not supposed to be here," she smiled and started to gather her belonging.

"Yet you are. So stay and enjoy yourself," Klaus said laying her blanket back on the ground and sitting on it.

"I-I," Andorra started, but Klaus gave her a warm smile and reached for her hand. "I don't like to sing in front of strangers."

"Well, just play your harp for me," he said and Andorra did as he requested. She and Klaus sat there and enjoyed each other's company.

Andorra got a call from Stefan and turned her phone off. "I have to go; it was very nice to meet you…"

"Nicklaus and you are?"

"Andorra Salvatore," she smiled knowing he knew the name.

Klaus swallowed. "Salvatore? Are you related to Damon and Stefan Salvatore?" he questioned.

"Oh yes. They're my brothers. Do you know them?" she probed innocently.

"Yes very well. I haven't heard of you though?" he said smiling kindly at her. Andorra knew that was a lie too. Rebekah had to mention her once or twice, and the hybrid would have told him something too.

"Our father had a relationship with a runaway slave, my mother and he paid for us to go away," she smiled.

"And you're a vampire?" he asked.

"Yes," Andorra smiled using as little magic as she could to give the illusion of vamping out.

"I had no idea," he said studying her.

"How long have you known my brothers?" she asked.

"Years," he smiled.

"I can't wait to tell them about you. You're so cultured and talented. I've never met anyone like you," Andorra smiled with warm caring eyes.

"Well you're brothers won't think so. They're not found of me," he smiled.

"I don't think Damon can be found of anyone, and Stefan has been acting a little strange," she smiled. "I'm sure it's only temporary."

"I'm sure it's not. I'm not their friend. More like their only enemy," he smiled.

"While I guess we should keep this meeting to ourselves," she smiled.

"I think that will be best."

"When can we meet again?" Andorra asked.

"There's a dance tonight I'd love it if you came by. It's in the town square," Klaus said. "Wear a mask."

"A masquerade I haven't been to one in decades," she smiled.

"See you there," he smiled.

"Of course Nicklaus," she said looking up at him in a warm way. Klaus knew he shouldn't trust any Salvatore, but Andorra was intriguing.
