City Of Light

Chapter 37

She started countimg down, ready to stake herself "Three....two..."

"MEL NO! WAIT!!", Betty screamed.
"What? There is nothing holding me back. I want to be with them.", she said while tears fell down her face.
"You have us. We love you. I know we can't replace Stefan and Damon but we don't ask you to forget them. Why do you think they let you here? Do you think they let you here out of fun? They wanted you to move on, to live your life again. They will always stay with you in your heart. We need you here, Mel. You are my best friend, actually you are more than a best friend, you are my soul sister. So if you want to die...", she said and came closer to her and held the stake with her.
"You have to take me with you. I can't live without you.", she told her as she teared up.

Kai and Klaus were standing there, not knowing what to do. They thought that maybe Betty could really convince her but if not they were afraid that Betty would do as she says, die with her...

"W-What?", Mel asked suprised with tears in her eyes.
"You heard me. Either we both live or die together. I'm not staying here if you aren't.", Betty said convinced of her idea.
"I-Is this a trick again?", she asled, not wanting to believe what she said.
"No tricks anymore, Mel. I'm deadly serious. If you die, I go with you.", she said and pointed the white oak stake at her own heart.

Mel looked at her and you could see all of her emotions. Betty was just standing there, waiting for her answer. She wouldn't mind dying either, she lived long enough.

"You are serious...", Mel realised.
"I am. I don't want to live without you. With whom am I gonna make jokes? Talk about my problems? Watch tv shows with? Have fun with? Plan a june wedding with?", she told her while laughing with tears in her eyes about the last question.
"You have Klaus here. I know he'll stay with you forever.", she said and held her hands.
"And you have Kai and me! Please Mel, don't go. Stay here. Live your life. Start fresh.", Betty tried one last time.

Mel looked into her tearful eyes abd couldn't help but cry and hug her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't want things to end up like this.", Mel said while hugging her tighter.
"Hey, it's okay. Nobody is perfect.", Betty told her while pulling her out of the hug.

"So are you staying?", Betty asked full of hopes.
"Yeah.", she said and Betty hugged her again.

"LOVE YOU SO MUCH", Betty said happily and faced her.
"Love you, too.", Mel laughed.

Then she turned to Klaus who smiled at her.

"You know, although you are a little annoying sometimes, you are still family and family is everything.", he told her.

At last, she turned to Kai who just waited for this moment to happen. He hugged her tightly.

"Never do that again, do you hear me? You scared the hell out of me!", he whispered to her ear.
"I won't. Promise.", she said and smiled at him.
"I love you, Mel, with all my heart. I don't know what I would do without you.", he told her and finally kissed her.

-

"Hmmm, what's this smell?", Mel said while following it to the kitchen.

She just got out of the shower and when she entered the kitchen the lights were out.

"WELCOME BACKK", everyone screamed and then Stiles turned the light back on.

Betty was standing there with a Mel's favorite cake and she aslo made some blood mixed with alcohol for the vampires.

"Oh my God! Thanks guyss!", she said full of joy in her eyes.
"Anything for yaa bestie.", Betty said and put her arm around her while giving her a wink.

"Now guys, let's celebrate!!", Betty said and opened the champagne bottle.

"Now, how is my favorite girl doing?", Klaus said while huggging Betty from the back.
"Mhmmm... I don't know. Maybe a little lonely.", she said playingly.
"Well, we could change that.", he said and kissed her.
"Wait, not here. Let's go to your room", she said and smirked.
"Our room.", he corrected her and made her smile even more.

Then Betty and Klaus went to their room and were staying the for the whole night.

Stiles and Rebekah were sitting on the couch. Stiles was eating cake and Rebekah was drinking blood.

"Umm, Stiles, you have a little bit of cake there- no not there- wait let me just-", she said and whiped away the cake that was on the side of his lips.

They looked deeply into each others eyes and came closer and closer to each other until their lips met.

"Aren't they cute?", Mel said while looking at them.
"Not cuter than us tho.", Kai said and Mel laughed.

"You are a dork.", Mel told him.
"Hey that's my line! I say that to you!", he said.
"Well, it's not your line anymore.", she said and gave him a smirk.
"Hmm, then I have to give you a new name. How about... bean!", he said excited.
"Not creative at all!", she laughed at him.
"Dork is not that creative, too!", he tried to defend himself.
"You chose that tho.", she told him.
"Yeah yeah, I knoe i'm not creative in nicknames. But you know where I am? In bed.", he said and gave her a wink.
"You dirty little dork!", she laughed and hit him on his arm.
"Ouch.", he played hurt.
"Sorry not sorry.", she said.
"Mel..", he said and came closer to her.
"Yes?", she amswered and looked at him.

He came even nearer and held her by her hips.

"I missed you.", he whispered when he was right in front og her face.
"I missed you, too", she told him and bit her lip.

Then he crashed his lips against hers.

"Let's head upstairs.", he said while taking a break from the kiss.

She agreed and they immediatley rushed to their room and did their thing.
