Just One Yesterday // I

Chapter Two

I walk down stairs the next morning, heading into the kitchen, and I'm greeted with Jenna. "Oh Hey Jenna, I didn't hear you come home." I say surprised to see her in the morning.

"Yeah, I spent the night on campus, and just got home." Jenna, explains, sipping her coffee.

"Got it . Well I'm going to head it for some nature shots, I'll be back late, cal if you need anything." I tell Jenna, placing my camera around my neck.

"Alright. Have fun. Oh, have you talked to Elena or Jeremy today?" Jenna asks.

"Uh, no not today, everything alright?" I question worry filling me now.

"I don't think they came home last night. I'm probably just being paranoid. Uh, just let me know anything if they text you." Jenna tells me, combing her fingers through her hair.

"Okay, have a good day Jenna." I say to her heading to the door.

"You too." Jenna says from the kitchen. I open the door, and head on my way to town.
~~~~~~~~
Through out the day I walked to the cemetery and rooks a few pictures and by the time the sun started to set I had made my way down to the town square. I saw the water fountain with the sunset in the back ground, I knew that was a perfect photo.

I take a couple photo from different angles. "That's a beautiful scene for a picture." I hear a British accented voice day from behind me.

I jump a bit and turn around. I'm face to face with a really handsome man. He was taller then me, with short dark blonde hair, with dark blue eyes. "Oh, um thank you, uh yeah it's a really nice scene to capture." I sputter out, not really expecting anyone to talk to me as I took pictures.

"Sorry for startling you love, I just saw a pretty girl all alone, taking a wonderful picture and had to say something." The mysterious man compliments me.

I blush lightly not expecting that to be said, "Oh, thank you, again.. um.." I say, cutting myself off for not knowing him name.

"Niklaus, but I prefer Klaus." He tells me, having a small smirk on his lips.

I smile in return, "Well, I prefer Niklaus. I'm Clara by the way." I tell him.

He chuckles, "Well if a beautiful girls with a beautiful name wishes to call me that, how can I refuse." A smile gracing his lips.

I blush again, "It was nice to meet you Niklaus, but I have to get home." I inform him my camera in my bag.

"Could we meet again, tomorrow?" He more so requests.

I pretend to think about, "Hmm, I think I can meet with you tomorrow. Meet me at the Grille, we'll hang out there." I tell him, smiling again, turning around and walking away.

"I'll see you then love!" He shouts from where he stayed down the street, causing me to laugh a little.

By the time I arrived home the sun had completely set over the horizon. No cars were at home, only mine. It confused me cause I thought Jenna would be home.

I walk around the house, confirming my assumption that no one was home. I head upstairs, checking to see if anyone was just asleep, but only found no one.

I walk to my room and then change into comfortable clothes. I transferred the photos that I took today into my laptop for the work I'll be doing tomorrow, and fell asleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~
I wake up the next morning to a still empty and silent house. I check my phone and see no texts from any of them.

I get up and ready for the day. After I was done with that I decide to call Jenna to see what's up.

After two rings she picks up, "Hey Clara, are you okay?" Jenna asks, a bit rushed, confusing me.
