And Then There Was You

Chapter 4

Night time has fallen and Cami was just closing up the bar. She wiped down the tables and then the counter. She walked outside and locked the door behind her as she started walking back to her apartment. She got a txt from Klaus *I need to talk to you don't leave the bar* he said in the txt as she read it. She thought of just going back and just thought of waiting for him there. As soon as she walked back to the bar she saw Gabriel walking along the sidewalk and looked over and saw Cami.

"If it isn't "You can call me Cami" it' nice to see you again" he said as he walked over to her and kissed her hand as she smirked at him. Gabriel was one of those men that was very charming and it seemed to get Cami's attention for sure. When he put her hand down she looked up at him "It's good to see you again. So your a friend of Klaus's how long have you known him" She asked him as she leaned against the door of the bar. Her feelings were confusing her, she was in love with Klaus but she was finding herself crushing on Gabriel. "For a long time he and I go way bacl. I know him along with Elijah and Rebekah, but lets just say Klaus and I have more of a history" He said to her. Cami was wondering if Klaus was still coming, he would be able to see her talking with Gabriel.

"I would ask what that is but it's not really any of my business" She said to him. She decided to just open the door to the bar as they can just go back in and sit. If Klaus was meeting her there she might as well hang out inside for a bit. She grabbed a bottle of whiskey and poured herself and Gabriel a drink. "So whats the status of you and Klaus, you guys like a thing or something" He asked her as she chuckled. Yeah Cami would love it if her and Klaus were an item she would love it if he actually made an attempt and do something about it. But every time he is about to kiss her he bolts and just leaves her and she is tired of it.

"No we aren't anything actually. I thought something would have happened but I think he just sees me as a friend" She said to him. She took another sip of her drink. Cami had plenty of friends. Vincent, Davina, Hayley, Rebekah, Marcel and Elijah in some way. But she was starting to think that her and Klaus were never going to happen. "Well then the guy is an idiot because how can he not see how beautiful you are" he said smiling at her. Gabriel had an interesting idea, he had heard about Freya's part and decided to ask Cami if she would like to go with him "So I don't know if you know Freya, maybe you do but she is having a party Saturday and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me" He asked her.

She didn't know what to say exactly. The last time she went to a party like that was when Rebekah invited her to Marcel's party at the compound. She looked over at him and smiled "Yeah I will do with you, could use a night out anyway" She said to him. Gabriel smiled at her. He was surprised she even said yes but was also glad because he really liked her. But he also knew how Klaus felt about her and wants to do anything in his power to mess with him. He remembered taking a girl that he really liked and now he wanted to d that with Cami. Yeah he was attracted to her, but he could tell how much she meant to Klaus and wants to steal her away from him as well.

"Perfect. well can I meet you here and we can go there together" He asked her as she nodded her head. He got up from the chair as he decided to go back to where he was staying. He kissed her hand very gently "I will see you later Cami" He said to her as he walked out the door. She smiled at him not even knowing what his plan was for her. She looked at her watch as it said it was almost 11:00. *Man where was Klaus" She thought in her head. He just missed Gabriel as she just decided to wait. All of a sudden her phone rang as it said Klaus on the caller I.D.

"Klaus where are you I thought you were on your way here" She asked him. Klaus was talking on the phone as he saw Gabriel walk out of the bar and across the street. He pretended he didn't see him walk out as he answered her in the phone "Sorry Cami I am by the bar now. Listen I need to talk to you about something" He said as he walked over to the bar and opened the door. He closed it behind him and hung up the phone as Cami was sitting on the bar stool looking over at him. He needed to talk to her about something, could this be what she was hoping for. Was he finally making a commitment and asking her out. What if he asks her to Freya's party should she tell him she is going with Gabriel. She signed as she waited for him to talk.
