In the middle of the night I woke up screaming my lungs out. I sat up and looked around, trying to calm myself down. I heard footsteps and in the next moment Klaus sat next to me. He put his arms around me and my breath and heartbeat were still very fast. I couldn't... breathe. "It's alright. You're safe. It's okay." He whispered and I've calmed down as soon as I heard his voice. "You wanna tell me what's going on?" He asked and I felt another pair of eyes on me.

When I looked up, my eyes met Hope's. "I just had a nightmare. Nothing to worry about." I said and both, Klaus and Hope, didn't believed me. Of course, they wouldn't. "And now you tell us the real story, please." Hope said and sat down. I watched Klaus as he looked down at me with worry in his eyes. And more. "It was a nightmare. A nightmare about things I was sure I had forgotten by now." Hope got up and sent me a smile. "I get it. But, try not to scream again." She said and I nodded slowly. "Sorry, for waking you up." "It's alright. Good night, Olivia." She whispered and left the room.

"What is it about?" Klaus whispered worried into my ear as he hold me again. I leaned against him. Then, I turned around to him and watched his face for a while. "It's about you. And the meadow. About us. I don't know--" He cut me off and sighed, "I guess, I have the same nightmares. You and I on the meadow. Then something takes you away from me and kills you." I nodded. "Exactly. Just in my version, it kills--" I couldn't finish the sentence. I was too afraid it would become true. "Me." He finished for me and I leaned against him again. "That's not gonna happen. Not ever. I won't let anything take you away from me. I waited too long to have this." He said softly.

I smiled. It was genuine. "God, I want you to kiss you so bad." I whispered and he stroke my cheek. Klaus smirked. "Well, what's stopping you?" He asked quietly. I turned fully around to him and kneeled on the bed. I put my hands on his cheeks.
"I'm sorry for leaving." I whispered against his lips and he smiled at me. "You never left." And with that I kissed him softly, yet passionate.

His hands found their ways on my hips and I laid down with him on my bed. After a while I pulled away and opened my eyes. Taking deep breaths I looked into his eyes. "There's something I need to tell you." I whispered and he looked curiously up to me.

"And what if she doesn't want to? I mean... Leah had a choice. Why doesn't Olivia?" Klaus asked in anger and I took his hand. "Hey, calm down." I said, but he just shaked his head in disbelief. Sara sighed and watched the other Mikaelsons walking up to us. "What's with all the shouting?" Rebekah asked and I smiled at her. "Olivia." She whispered and hugged me, smiling. Then she slapped me. I groaned in pain, and so did Klaus.

"What was that for?" I asked and Rebekah smiled at me again. "Don't you ever take our memories away." I nodded at her. I already gave Kol and Davina their memories back. They were all angry with me for that, of course. "So, what's going on?" She asked curiously and my eyes fell on Sara. "Well, it's been seven years since her coronation and... she still hasn't married yet." She explained and Klaus growled again. "And she won't." I smirked at him. Of course I won't. That was out of question.

"Oh, come on! First, you don't have a word in this--" Sara begun. "As her other half I do have a word in this." Klaus said and I took deep breaths while tucking hair behind my ear. "You're being overprotective, Nik." Rebekah said and I chuckled. "I second that." I whispered and then shaked my head. "Sara, I love you, but if you say one more time that I should marry Thomas during the next full moon I will break some of your bones. I won't marry. And as your Queen and sister that's my last word." I said and she sighed in anger.

"If you won't, the eldests will try to take your magic again. Do you want that? Because, if I'm remembering right, the last time you wouldn't want to do something important, the eldests used you and then tried to take your powers. And I remembered your screams as you found out what they did. Don't push them, O." I groaned in annoyance. "I hate it! I hate them!" I called out and then felt the burning pain in my chest as they punished me once again.
