And Then There Was You

Chapter 23

Cami was wondering that maybe she shouldn't have blurted it out like that as she watched Klaus, Elijah and Hayley all look over in her direction. Klaus couldn't believe what he just heard she was actually pregnant, now he obviously didn't think it was him because he knew he couldn't have anymore kids as he thought. But he wondered who it was and was going to find whoever did this to her and hunt them down and kill them.

"What did you just say" was all he could say at the time

Hayley smiled and then looked over at Elijah "Man Elijah how is that a long story, all you had to say was Cami is pregnant with Klaus's child" she said to him. She knew it had to be Klaus despite the fact that he couldn't have anymore kids, who else would she have slept with.

"You know perfectly well Hayley that I can't have anymore kids" he told her as Cami just chimed in

"I'm surprised at this as well, but it is yours Klaus I haven't slept with anyone else" she said as he saw the now fear in his eyes.

He wasn't sure what to make of this really. This wasn't just anyone he got pregnant it was Cami and it scared him. When he found out Hayley was pregnant with Hope it didn't scare him as much, it scared him a little bit fearing that he wouldn't make a good father but that was all but Cami being pregnant with his child just changed everything.

"I wasn't planning on telling you like that but I had to do something to get you from not hurting her" she said as she pointed at Hayley as Hayley smiled at Cami.

Freya crossed her arms and looked at everyone, she was glad that Cami finally said something "Cami I'm glad you finally said something" she said as she just sighed, she didn't want Klaus to know that she knew about the pregnancy the whole time. "I'm just going to go give you guys a chance to actually talk about this" Quickly she ran out the door before she could be stopped.

Cami just didn't really know what to say now. Klaus sat down in the chair, while Elijah just stood next to Hayley without even moving. Hayley wanted to leave them in private so she could go see Hope that is all she wanted to do right now. She grabbed Elijah's hand and jerked her head towards Hope's room so she could leave Cami and Klaus to talk alone as well. As Cami watched Hayley and Elijah walk into another room, she sat down next to Klaus.

"I honestly didn't want to tell you because I know you have a lot going on with Hope and as much as I enjoyed our night the other night this is the one thing I wasn't expecting" she said as she put her hand on top of his, he didn't even flinch he just kept his hands there with her hand on top of his. He was so in shock right now he couldn't really say much of anything.

"Klaus say something..anything"

"I just need some time to think right now" He said as he got up from the chair

He just walked towards the balcony and hung out there, it was his place to think and he really had a lot to think about right now. He didn't blame Cami for this, no he mostly blamed himself. As soon as his enemies find out that a human that he cares so much for is pregnant with a Klaus Mikealson child they will be going after her. He got rid of Gabriel hurting her, but now he is worried about others finding out about this and going after her as well.

Hayley walked into the nursery and looked down at Hope as she just smiled looking up at her mother. Elijah closed the door and walked over towards Hayley seeing her smiling down at Hope. 3 months..she hasn't seen her baby in 3 months and all she wanted was to just take her in her arms and bring her home with her but she knew Klaus wouldn't let her get away that easy with her. She looked over at Elijah and then back down at Hope.

"Hi baby" she said picking her up in her arms

"She seems happy to see you, she needed her mother" Elijah looked at the two of them

"Elijah thank you so much for taking care of her for me, I couldn't have just Klaus in her life" she started to say "But he's not going to let me take her, he will stop me as soon as I go and pick up her baby bag" she told him

Hayley knew Klaus very well and she knew what he was capable of and if she even thought of taking Hope away from him again she knew that Klaus would actually end up killing her this time and she couldn't have that and she couldn't have him take her away from Hope again.

"If you want to take her I will handle my brother. Now that he got Camille pregnant he won't be thinking of that right now" Elijah was standing so close to Hayley and just wanted to hold her in his arms. man he missed her so much and he wanted nothing more than to be with her. But he knew she was still married to Jackson.

"Hey I will come back for her, I just need to go find jackson. Elijah besides my feelings towards you he is still my husband and I know I have to go find him" she said placing Hope back down in the crib.

She just smiled at her and then turned to Elijah who nodded back at her. He held the side of her face as Hayley just leaned in and kissed him with him kissing her back. She has been wanting to kiss him again for a long time, but with her being married to Jackson and him being with Gia she knew that she had to back off as the same thing actually went with him. But Eijah hated Jackson and he was just going to keep on fighting for Hayley no matter what it took and he was not going to let Klaus hurt her anymore and he was going to make sure that he would rather die then to let Klaus lay another finger on the woman he loves. She opened the door with him following right behind her and into the kitchen as Cami was just sitting there and Klaus left the room.

"What Happened" Hayley asked as Cami turned towards her and Elijah

"He said he needed time to think so he is out on the balcony" she sighed not really sure what to do now "Hayley you been pregnant with his child, you need to help me though this. Like what am I suppose to do..I never been pregnant before and this isn't just a normal baby I keep getting sick like every 20 minutes" she told her as Hayley just laughed

"well I never got sick that much, but I guess with me it was different" She placed her hands on each of Cami's arms "Listen all I know is he will be watching your every move. I mean you mean more to him than I ever did so he will be like a spy making sure that your well taken care of and whatever you do as soon as you have it don't set him off the wrong way..I guess I'm just excited that Hope is getting a sibling she needed one" she said taking her hands down.

What Hayley said actually made sense. One thing Cami knew that she and Klaus would get along on how to raise the baby, since Klaus and Hayley couldn't get along in what was best for Hope or in general. She watched as they both left the compound as she was now alone with Klaus again, she debated if she should just go and join him on the balcony or just wait inside for him to even come back in. She walked closer to where he was and just leaned against the doorway folding her arms.

"At least tell me what your thinking Klaus, I don't want this to come between us just because you just happened to get me pregnant"

"I'm just not sure what I am thinking right now, but I can a sure you Cami that as long as your pregnant with my child I can't let you go back to your apartment this way I can make sure your safe" he told her turning over to her and looked into her eyes.

He still couldn't take the other night back for anything, he was glad that it happened and he knew at some point he would want it to happen again because that was one thing he couldn't get out of his mind on how much he enjoyed making love to her. Cami knew what he was coming from and this is exactly what Hayley warned her about Hayley may not have been in Klaus's site 24/7 but he was still making sure that she was taken care of and the baby wasn't harmed, but she was right with Hayley it was different she was a supernatural creature, as Cami is a powerless human who had no powers to protect herself. But she actually didn't mind staying under his roof, she knew that if he stayed close to her she would be safe..or will she.
