Klaus Mikaelason imagines

Karaoke

It's bad enough that Spotify interrupts the playlist every now and then but since I don't have premium, I understand that's the way it is.

But there should be an option that stops calls from interrupting the music playing.

Even more when there's a guy who's blowing up my phone. Apparently, he's having a bad time figuring out what "no" means.

I roll my eyes when I hear my phone ringing again and since it was on speaker, my roommate hears it too.

I hear her groan from the other room before she shouts:

"Can you please answer his calls? It's the 100th time he calls, put the boy out of his misery Y/N."

It's funny how she gets so worked up about this when it doesn't even concern her in the first place.

"We've already talked about this Y/F/N*. I've already made it clear to him that I'm not interested in dating someone at the moment. If I answer he will find a way to twist my words and get me to go on a date with him." I protested repeating my reasons once more.

"I honestly don't understand what's your problem. He's handsome, he's charming, he's been always been kind to you, he's an accent and I know how British accent swap you off your feet and above all, he's interested. Why don't you give him a chance? What's the worst that can happen?" I hear her voice getting closer to my room before seeing her leaned against the door.

I stop what I'm doing to turn around and face her. She's that look on her face that tells me that she's not going to let this go. I don't understand why though.

"I can fall in love with him." I joked but she and I both know that I'm serious. I have to confess that I have trust issues especially when it comes to guys. I don't like to open up to them romantically because I know that I'm going to give them my all and sooner or later they will leave me heartbroken. And that's something I'm trying to avoid.

She rolls her eyes and scoffs at my insecurities and leaves my room. "You can't keep living like this. Love is everywhere, you can't avoid it for much longer. Besides, you're missing out on a lot. Sooner or later you'll have to break the walls that guard your heart."

Not really listening to what she said, I put my phone in "do not disturb" mode and go back to what I was doing.

 *** 

It was Friday night and as our tradition says, it's karaoke night. As usual, we were at our favourite bar and while I don't sing, the other girls do and their performances are always hilarious.

Y/F/N had just finished her amazing off-key performance stumbling a bit on the stairs of the stage. Too caught up on leading her safely to our table I didn't notice the next person that walked on the stage. A poke from Y/F/N makes me look up though and well, he was the last face I thought I'd see here.

I really didn't expect to see him here nor ever again for that matters, so I stare at him for a bit to make sure that it really is him. When I notice I've been staring at him for a while I shake my head giving my attention to Y/F/N again and I see she's smirking. 

Of course, he's not here by chance. Y/F/N is playing cupid. 

When we finally made our way back to our table, the next song starts and to my surprise, Klaus starts singing. Is there actually something that this guy can't do?

Since now I know that his presence here is not random, I wonder what song he is going to sing. I guess he's going with the serenade to win me over. How cliché...

Just when I thought this guy couldn't surprise me more and be even more a cliché I hear the initial notes of the song he's decided to sing immediately recognising them. 

A small laugh leaves my mouth and arching my brow I look at Y/F/N knowing that this was her doing, and then back at him that was already singing with a smirk, fully aware that his message has gotten across.

"So get out, get out, get out of my head 

And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

Now I'm climbing the walls
But you don't notice at all
That I'm going out of my mind
All day and all night "

I am still having trouble processing the fact that he's singing a One Direction song. I know what guys think of boybands so I really appreciate his gesture. I have to admit that he really got out of his way to win me over.  ça va sans dire that I'm not going to get over my trust issues just over this and it won't be easy for him but I guess I could go out on a date. Just one, to see if there's a spark...

Lost in my thoughts I didn't notice that the song was now over and Klaus was standing before me. His smirk was still there and he was wearing a smug expression but I could see that he was nervous about my reaction.

"I didn't know you could sing nor that you liked karaoke." I pointed out when he didn't say anything

"Well, there's a lot you don't know about me." He replies 

I nod my head agreeing with him. I look at him for a while before answering. 

"That's true, but I would like to change that." I admit hinting nonchalant that I was agreeing on going on a date with him. He seems to understand that because his smirk turns into a toothy smile and I can't help but mirror his action. His smile is so beautiful.
