Alex's P.O.V (Her Outfit ^^)
Klaus was discussing pack business with Jackson and I in the upstairs lounge. I sat on the couch's arm, with my legs crossed, and I looked at Klaus. "It's time to use our werewolf army. Finn and the woman who calls herself my sister are in this city. The wolves can help us pinpoint their location." Klaus said to him.
"No, we need all hands on deck here with the kids." My husband's eyes widen in annoyance. "I think you can compel humans to track your enemies." Jackson said to him. I pinched the bridge of my nose. Don't give Klaus orders. Rule #1 of this household.
"Do my ears deceive me? Or did you just give me an order? In my own home?" Klaus asked him.
"This ain't about your ego, Klaus! It's about what's best for that little boy. Dahlia could be anywhere." Jackson said and Klaus became furious.
"How dare you question my intentions for my son!" Klaus yelled at him and I reluctantly agreed with him.
"Jack, Klaus is right. Finn's body disappeared from the morgue, which means that he's either powerful enough to heal from that explosion, or Freya's powerful enough to save him. Either way, we're not finding them unless we... send our best people out there." I said to him and Jackson sighed in frustration.
"I'm sure you and all your merry men will find them post haste." Klaus said patronizingly. Jackson stood to his feet and stared Klaus in the eye.
"Just to be clear, I'm giving this order because your wife is asking." Klaus opened his mouth to speak, but Jackson cut him off before he could say anything. "Don't think for one second that I take orders from you." Jackson said to him and walked out. Klaus looked at me and I sighed as I stood up.
"Great going, Klaus, at this rate you'll have the whole pack hating you." I said to him and walked out to follow Jackson.

I had just put Hope and Shawn down to sleep and heard a gently knock on the door frame. I turned and saw Hayley holding a plate in her hand. "Shhh. I just got them down." I whispered to her. Hayley held out a plate to hand to me.
"Thought you might be hungry." Hayley said and I smiled. I looked at the plate to see what food she brought me.
"Grilled cheese, huh? Hell of a chef!" I said and she laughed.
"Well, I don't like to brag." Hayley said and I smiled again. I then turned around and started to put away Hope and Shawn's toys and blankets. "You know, Jack and I can help you with the twins, right? If you want to take a break sometime, we're good with kids."
"I missed six months of their life. I don't mind." I said and smiled at her. "Thanks!" Hayley smiled and turned to leave, but I called out to her to stop her. "Hey, Hals. You and Jackson have been a little distant lately."
