Kol woke up, rolled out of bed and headed for the shower, once done and dried off he dressed in his favorite blue jeans and gray t -shirt before heading downstairs. He checked his phone for the time and decided to wait to text Elena until she had lunch. The house was fairly quiet so he went to the kitchen to grab a glass of orange juice with a few drops of blood in it. Once he was done he headed back upstairs to see if Freya was in her craft room, to ask if she needed any help cleaning it up.
"Do you need any help cleaning up this mess? Kol asked.
"Actually I could. I need help moving those shelves and table over there" she said.
"So have you figured out if it's just the room or the whole house making things explode?" he asked her as they started moving the table.
"Yeah, it's just this room. I tried a small spell in the hallway" she said with a grin.
"Good thing Nik didn't see or his head may have exploded"he said with a smile.
"Well it was chance I was willing to take, I had no desire to keep going outside" Freya said with a smirk as they moved the last of the shelves.
"Hopefully we can find the witch who created this before they do any more damage to anything" Kol stated.
"Me too, still don't know who it could be though" she said puzzled.
"We'll get it figured out sister" Kol said to reassure her.
"I know, ok...time to get cleaning. Here is a scrub brush brother and rubber gloves" she said as she put a pair on.
"You tell anyone I wore these, I'll deny it" Kol said smiling.
"I promise" Freya said scrubbing on the floor.
It took Kol and Freya the better part of the morning to scrub the floor and move everything back in place. Once done they surveyed the room, looked at each other with a nod, and did a high five. Kol took his phone out of his pocket and saw he had missed a text from Elena.
Hope your day is going well :)

"From the smile on your face, must have been a text from Elena" Freya stated with a smile.
"Yeah, she'll be here for dinner tonight. I can't wait to show her the painting Nik did of her.
"Nik did a painting of Elena? I'm impressed. So where is this painting, I haven't had the pleasure of seeing it yet" she said motioning for Kol to lead the way.
"Here it is" Kol said proudly.
"Wow. She is just gorgeous, our brother did a beautiful job" she said in awe.
"You ought to see some of his other paintings...Elijah I believe called them grotesque" he chuckled.
"And what did you call them?" she asked.
"I believe I told him they hurt my eyes just to look at them" Kol said chuckling.
"Well this one is far from grotesque, hey I need to go find some herbs to replace those that got ruined, want to tag along?" Freya asked.
"Sure, it will give me something to do and stay out of trouble until I pick Elena up" Kol said.
"You trouble? Never. Besides, you have something worth staying out of trouble for" Freya told her brother.
"That I do sister" Kol said with a smile.
By the time Freya and Kol made it back to the house it was close to six, so he hopped in his car and headed to Elena's. After he pulled up in front of her house, he got out and started up the walkway when Elena walked out. When she spotted him a huge smile came across her face and her eyes lit up as she met him almost halfway down the sidewalk. Kol wrapped his arms around her waist then leaned down to kiss her as she rested her hands on his arms.
"Are you ready to go?" he asked as he pulled back from the kiss.
"Yeah, did Freya ever figure out if it was the room or not?" Elena asked as they headed to Kol's car.
"It was the room" he said opening the passenger door for her.
"Glad she got it figured out" Elena said as she got in the car.
