Lillian's POV

It was quiet. Warmth surrounded me as all I felt was darkness. Not the cold kind, but rather the comfy one where you knew you were safe and that you were just floating along. That was until a loud voice tried to take me out of my comfy darkness.

"It's tomorrow! Wake up and hand her over!"

"Mhmm! Too early. 2 more hours." I groaned out, rolling myself to the side and pushing my face harder into my firm pillow. A deep laugh made its way to my ears and I knew it was Klaus instantly.

"Klaussss I want more sleep. I got you your wolf, you're giving me more time to sleep." I'm not stupid. I knew I wasn't laying on a pillow. It was way too hard. Stefan had more buff muscles, so this had to be Damon. Knowing that, I wrapped my arm around his midsection, keep my head on his chest, and said "sleep".

"Caroline, love, she wants to sleep some more. I say we let her. What's the harm?" 

"Klaus, goddamn it! How are you being manipulated by someone who's not even eighteen?!"

"Well, she's your sister love. I think that says a lot on its own." He said with humor entering his voice.

"I'll take you up on that date if we get her up."

"That's it, love? I've been trying grand jewels, dresses, trips across the world, my promise to be a better man for you, and all it's going to take is to get your little sister out of bed in the morning? Why didn't she come home sooner! Lillian, love, time to get up!" Klaus said while getting closer to me by the sound of his voice. 

"Klaus, you touch her, you won't like the consequences," Stefan said firmly, obviously not in ripper mode yet, but ready to take action if needed.  

"Ripper, I have a date I need to aquire." 

"Klaus, you touch me, you won't have a town to have a date in or a body to even use on that date to cohort my sister with," I said in a deathly calm voice.

"Lillian, love, let's not be ridiculous. You can come back to bed later tonight, but you should get up now." 

"You don't know hellfire until I reign it Niklaus. Would you like to feel the storm?"

"Caroline, are you sure about this? Your sister seems very adamant about staying in bed."

"This is my offer. Deal or no deal, Klaus?" 

"Lillian, please? Help me out, love. I've been trying to get this date with your sister for months now."

"You get me like a hundred of those stupid cheese bread things from Texas de Brazil and I'll get up right now," I said seriously. 

"Really? You Forbes like to be difficult just to make simple demands, don't you?"

"Deal or no deal, Klaus?" I repeated Caroline's words from before. 

"Deal. Get your ass up. I'm getting on it right now." I finally opened my eyes to see Klaus about four feet from the bed, texting on his phone. Caroline still stood by the doorway, refusing to be in the crossfire if all went downhill. She knows you don't wake me up in the morning if you value your life. I looked up from where I was to see Damon's icy blue eyes looking down at me. 

"Goodmorning," I said to him. 

"Good morning, Lillian. Are you always this much of a pleasure to wake up?" 

"I like my sleep." Without giving him any time to respond, I rolled to the other side to see Stefan laying there. Both were still shirtless and I'm not afraid to say I enjoyed the sight.

"Good morning, Stefan."

"Good morning, Lillian." He said humorously, obviously entertained by my good mornings and refusal to get up. 

"Okay, up and at them," I said while getting up from between them. That was until two arms pushed me back down.

"Hold on." Stefan started.

"We didn't agree to this whole situation." Damon finished. Both held a hand on my arm gently, making sure I wasn't going anywhere. 

"Seriously?!" Caroline yelled. Haha in her face. Maybe she shouldn't have woken me up. My sleep is necessary. Klaus just growled.

"What is it that you two want! Because she is to get up in the next minute and you two will not be the reason I lose this opportunity. Do you understand me?" 

"She can go home to go see Liz and whatever, but she is to come back here by tonight at 9," Damon said firmly.

"Fine, now let her go. Lillian, out of bed now." 

"Don't take that tone with me, mister!" I scolded him while climbing out of bed, successfully this time.

"There! Is everyone happy now?!" Waking me up from my peaceful sleep, how dare they! I never get to sleep. It always takes forever and by the time I actually do, I have to wake up quickly. Ridiculous, I say.

"Would you like breakfast before you go?" Damon asked. I looked at him in surprise and hope. Food? Food made by him, nonetheless? Yes, please!

"If you don't mind..." I said with a hopeful look.

"Of course. Anything in specific?"

"Waffles?!" He nodded.

"Alright, Bonnie and Clyde. Let's go." Damon said, shooing Klaus and Caroline out of the room.

"Yell if you need anything, Lillian," Caroline yelled from the hallway. I turned my head from the hallway to the bed, where Stefan still was. He was sitting up against the headboard, muscles flexed and the bed sheet low. We were just staring at each other.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing."

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Well you're hot and you're Stefan. Now answer my question, especially since I asked first."

"Come here." 

"That's not an answer." I pouted but walked back over to him anyway. He picked me up and put me on his lap, a place I was getting used to sitting. He quickly, but gently put his lips on mine and I kissed back happily. 

"We have to get up, but do you want some blood?" I asked him, looking into his eyes so he knew I wasn't afraid. 

"You know, with how well you took the whole vampire thing and how willing you are, if I didn't know better I would think you are compelled."

"Nope! I just think it's awesome and honestly, there's no reason to be afraid so whatever, you know?"

"You confuse me."

"It's a common occurrence for anyone I talk to. So, blood?"

"Can I?" 

"I wouldn't offer if I wasn't going to follow through. Neck or wrist?"

"Wrist is fine. Thank you, Lillian." I raise my wrist to him and he took it with both of his hands. He laid little kisses around the vein before gently sinking his teeth into me. When he had his fill, he retracted his teeth and let out a little sigh. 

"All good?" 

"Yes, all good." 

"Okay, let's go then," I said, sliding off his lap and walking out the door. He followed me closely. That was until I was out the door and could smell the waffles. 

"Waffles!" I yelled loudly, going into a full on sprint down the hallway and down the stairs.

"Lillian!" Was all I heard behind me, but I didn't care. There were waffles waiting for me and it would be rude to keep them waiting.
