Kol's got a problem

Chapter 2

Nichole's POV: I groaned, my vision blurry and my head pounding. I rubbed my eyes, and started searching for my phone, hoping to find it to check the time. I looked out the window to see the sun wasn't completely risen yet. I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom to find my phone in a cup. I saw that it was 4:50 AM. "Perfect timing, I need to finish packing." I walked out of the bathroom and put on a pair of black jean shorts with a white crop top that said "Not your babe" on it. I took my hair out of the braid it was in from yesterday and was satisfied with the soft waves in my hair. I tried to find Haeley, instead finding a topless Haeley cuddled with some random guy. I poked her awake and asked if she wanted to wave me off so i could start this 27 hour drive. "Yea let me just put a shirt on" I giggled and shook my head at her while she glared playfully at me. Haeley helped me carry my bags to my new car and wrapped me up in a fierce hug. "Thanks for getting drunk and helping me flirt with guys last night Nick." "No problem Hails, anytime you want to get drunk and come hit on Marcel just let me now, but I can't promise you that he'll flirt back" We both laughed and hugged again. "Oh wait I need to give you something." Haeley ran back into the dorm and came out with a shoe box. "I made you a road trip box, including 2 playlists I made for you, and a couple of blood bags to snack on in case you need them. I smiled at her and put the box in my front seat, "Thank you so much, text me when your leaving to Hawaii and when you land too please." "I will if you promise to text me during you drive and once you get there so I know you're okay." "I will, pinky promise." She held her pinky out and I grabbed her finger with mine. I got in the car and texted Marcel a quick 'I'll see you around lunch time tommorow.' I started the car and drove off, seeing a bittersweet smile on Haeley's face. 

~Time Skip to the last two hours of the drive~

Nichole's POV: I texted Haeley to tell her that I was stopped at a gas station 2 hours away from where i was meeting with Marcel on the Corner of Royal St. and Ursulines. She replied with an 'Okay, I'm about to leave the airport.' Marcel texted me saying he can't wait to show me everything that's changed since I was last there. I smiled and got back in the car, speeding as much as I could to hurry and get there. 

(A/N sorry for the time skips) ~Time Skip to meeting on Royal St by Rousseau's Bar~

Nichole's POV: I pulled up to see a smiling Marcel standing next to Josh. I got out of the car in a rush nearly falling on my face and connecting with the concrete before I saved myself and ran into a chuckling Marcel's open arms. He smelled like bourbon and mint, he smelled like home. "Dear god I've missed you so much. I'm sorry I didn't let you visit sooner Nikkie." "It's alright dad, I'm just happy to be here now. I need you to do me a favor though" He smiled at me 'Not even here for 10 minutes and you already want favors?" "It's just a small one, pleeasseee dad?" "Fine what is it?" I smiled and kissed his cheek before telling him "Text Rebekah and tell her you need her to come alone to Rousseau's and that it's urgent" "What makes you think I have her number?" Josh snickered before coughing to cover it up. I looked at Marcel, "I may be younger than you but I'm not stupid, give me your phone I'll do it" I took his phone before he could protest, and sent her the text. "Thank you, now let's go inside so you can buy me a drink and we can catch up, both of you" I said before Josh could walk away. Rousseau's was empty except a bartender, curtsy to Marcel. As we drank and waited for Rebekah we talked, something I missed doing with Marcel. We never talked much over the phone, and he never came to California in fear that I would be found by some unsavory characters without Marcel with me to protect me. "Haeley still finds you attractive, she doesn't mind that you're super old or that you're my dad. She wants you to be her sugar daddy now after seeing the car Josh brought me." Marcel's face was priceless and I doubled over in laughter, not hearing the door of the bar open, or noticing my beautiful best friend standing there. "What is so bloody important Marcel, that I had to come here alo-" She cut off once she realized who I was, and pulled me into a bone crushing hug before I could say a single syllable. "Oh my god I've missed you so much, I love you're hair, this shirt is as sassy as they come" she rushed out everything in one breath. I laughed and returned the hug with as much strength or even more, taking in the reality that I was home. "Ugh Becs I missed you too." She turned to Marcel and Josh, "You knew my best friend was coming home and you didn't even say anything to me? Klaus misses her too! And she hasn't met Kol yet either." "I figured she should get her own place and settle in before meeting every supernatural being in the French Quarter, I have a nice apartment not even 5 minutes away from here, then you can take her to the Mikaelson Compound, but I want a day with you to catch up and watch movie Nicks, got it?" "Yes sir" I saluted to him before laughing and getting the address of my new place from him. "Come on Becs, lets drive to my new apartment. She shrugged, but smiled once she saw my car. Marcel was right, it took 5 minutes to get to my new home and park. Rebekah helped carry in my bags. 

"Who's Kol?"

she smirked, and those were my famous last words.
