Elena had finished showering and dressed in her long sleeve dark blue shirt, black skinny jeans and her favorite sneakers. She grabbed her phone checking to see what time it was and headed downstairs just as the doorbell rang. When she opened the door she was greeted with a single red rose and a smiling Kol. She took the rose and lifted it to her nose to smell the sweet fragrant, then smiled.
"Thank you for the rose, let me go put it in a vase then we can go" she said happily.
"You're welcome" he said as she disappeared into the kitchen.
Elena reappeared and out the front door they went, once they reached the car Kol opened the door for her. As she climbed in Kol shut the door, went around to the drivers side and got in. As they headed off to his house, he reached over taking her hand in his.
"So how was your day?" Kol asked.
"It went pretty good, Caroline stopped by for awhile. She said she is willing to give you a chance and happy to know I have not been compelled by any vampires" Elena said cheerfully.
"I'm glad it went well love" he said sincerely.
"Me too, how was your day?" she asked him.
"It was good actually, besides the teasing when I got home. Didn't realize my family could be so relentless" he said with a laugh.
"Guess I got lucky with only one sibling and he wasn't home, and you had four to deal with" she said laughing.
"You wound me, love. Don't be surprised if they start on you next" Kol teased.
"They wouldn't, would they?" she said with her face turning red.
"Did you know how adorable you look when you blush?" Kol teased.
"How am supposed to go in there and face them now" Elena groaned, covering her face with her hands.
As they pulled up in front of the house and stopped Kol looked over at her and shrugged with a smirk. Elena gave him a look that said you'll pay for that later as she opened the car door before getting out. She waited for Kol to come around the car and took his hand as he lead the way into the house.
"Ah Elena how lovely to see you, I trust you enjoyed your weekend?" Elijah said with a smirk and a twinkle in his eyes.
"Nice to see you too Elijah, yes I did. It was quite peacefully and nice to get away from Mystic Falls for a little bit" Elena said trying really hard not to blush and failing.
"Forgive me, I couldn't help myself. Glad to hear you two had a peaceful weekend. Anyways Klaus is around here somewhere, probably painting, Rebekah is off sulking about something, Freya is practicing some kind of spell and I am off to get a drink...you two care to join me?" Elijah said casually.
"Sure, sounds like everyone is busy at the moment" Elena said.
"Why not" Kol said following Elijah.
About twenty minutes later they heard a loud boom and as they all three dashed into the hallway and up the stairs to see what the commotion was. As they walked into the room Klaus was already standing there with an amused look on his face. They glanced at Freya to discover she had a mixture of purple and black powder all over her face and in her hair, not to mention all over her clothes and part of the room.
"When you said earlier you wanted to redecorate this room sister, I didn't realize this is what you had in mind" Klaus said quite amused.
"Go ahead laugh it up, one day this here will make so none of you will need Klaus' blood to heal from a wolf's bite" Freya said pointing at the mess.
"Or it could make us explode" Elijah said with a smirk.
"What Elijah said" Klaus agreed.
"That is what I am trying to work out" Freya said while successfully smearing the powder all over face rather than cleaning it off.
"You missed a spot sister" Kol said pointing at her cheek.
"There, did I get it all off?" she asked.
"Yep, not a spot untouched now" Kol said amusingly.
"Sister you may want to clean up in the bathroom" Elijah said.
"I was wanting to know how much more she was just going to smear it all over her face" Klaus said laughing as he headed out of the room.
"We will wait dinner until you freshen up" Elijah calmly said as he turned on his heel to leave.
"Wait what do you mean smeared?" Freya asked after Klaus and Elijah.
"It's all over your face sister" Kol said laughing and dashing out of the room.
"Is that a dye kind of powder? Elena asked Freya.
"Yeah why...oh no!" Freya said in horror as it dawned on her and dashed out the door.
Elena felt for her, and she hoped the dye would come off Freya's face. But it was doubtful she was thinking as she headed down the hallway. All of a sudden her hand was grabbed and she was pulled into a room by Kol. Before she knew it he kissing her and had his arms around her waist.
"I've been waiting all day to do that" he whispered against her lips.
"Me too" she whispered back.
