Tainted Hearts

Chapter 34

We pulled into the Mystic Grill parking lot. He pulled the key out and the car shut off. There was an awkward silence so I ended it by opening the door.

I stepped out onto the black pavement and shut the door to the nice black mustang. It was sleek and beautiful.

Just like Kol.

I walked into the grill and shivered it was a little chilly in here. I should've grabbed my jacket.

Kol followed behind me as I chose a booth in the corner of the grill. I sat down quickly and watched him take a seat across me.

"So..." I said awkwardly, not really knowing what to say.

"Since this is a 'Date' we might as well get to know each other more darling" he said while flashing me his amazing smile.

He had perfect teeth and let's not forget that they were really white.

I smiled shyly and looked at the menu.

A waiter came to the table and asked us what we wanted to drink.

"I'll have a water," I said.

"I'll have a shot of whiskey" he said while I shot him an incredulous look. He shrugged it off and smirked.

The waiter walked away and said he would be back with our drinks shortly.

"Really whiskey. It's not a 'lets get drunk' party Kol" I said angrily.

"Don't get your panties in a twist. It takes a lot of alcohol for me to get drunk. Now you on the other hand, different story" he said insulting me.

"Are you calling me a lightweight?" I asked very upset, almost to the point of me jumping over the table and choking him.

"Yes I am."

"Well we'll have to test that theory" I said challenging him.

A meal and ten drinks later

I giggled as Kol made comments about his siblings. He told me of stupid things Rebekah and Klaus had done over the years.

"I like you Clara. A... Lot" he said slurring his words.

"Uh huh" I stated slurring too.

Everything was blurry and I found my entertainment in Kol's jokes and stories.

I had to admit they were really funny.

"I wanna leave Kol" I asked.

"Fine" he pouted disappointed.

He grabbed my had and I felt an electric current ripple through me. He felt it too. He had to have.

We go into his car and he drove me home.

He walked me up to my porch and I sobered up a bit.

"Thank you Kol, I had fun" I said genuinely.

"Yourwelcome" he said as he stood closer towards me. He looked in my eyes and I had the urge to kiss him.

I kissed his cheek and he turned and our lips met.

It was slow and passionate.
