Finding Another Chance

Chapter 3 I'm Sorry What?!

Third Person POV

Back at the compound, Cami was pacing back and forths, and it was starting to annoy everyone in the room, "Cami Darling will you please stop pacing they will be fine," Rebekah finally snapped at her, Cami stopped taking a few deep breaths in and out to calm herself down.

"you're right, you're right I'm sure their fine, nothing to worry about." before sitting down, Freya handing her a drink, as smiled and thanked her, her eyes went to the door and her glass dropped to the floor. Everyone looked at her before at the door, shock filling the rest of them. there standing at the doorway was a bloody Klaus, Hayley holding Hope, and a bloody Elijah hold Roxy, who had a bullet hole directly in her forehead. Elijah walked into the room first placing Roxy on to the empty couch, Cami shot up rushing over to Roxy's body beginning to cry. "Oh god! Roxy! what happened?! Elijah What happened!" she was panicking everyone could tell.

"Three men showed up, armed with wooden bullets, she said to split up before we could stop her she ran off," Hayley said putting down Hope but making sure she wasn't seeing Roxy. Cami looked at her confused and looking dazed.

"I shouldn't have asked her to come," Cami spoke quietly,

"Cami---" Klaus tried to stop her,

"NO, I am the person that brought her here and now she's dead!"

"Camille, do not--"

"I haven't seen her in 8 years and the first time gets her killed!"

"Come on Cami you can't--"

"SHUT UP, its all my fault!" 

"CAMI SHUT UP! I'm sure she'll be fine witches always have spells to keep them safe," Hayley put in her input making Cami look at her funny. 

"Roxy's not a witch," Hayley raised an eyebrow,

"What really? I got a witch vibe off her,"

"Well I've known her my whole life, she's not a witch!"

"Not quite Cam," the voice made everyone freeze, Elijah was the first to look over at the couch to she Roxy staring back at them with no hole in her head or leg. Cami looked at her tears still in her eyes, so much confusion and hurt were written in them. "I'm so sorry Cam, I didn't really think you had anything to do with the supernatural, until seeing you hang around with the originals, plus Dad would have killed me for telling you," she gave a small explanation but not the best one.

"So you did have a protection spell on yourself?" Hayley asked as she uncovered Hopes eyes. Roxy chuckled nervously, scratching the back of her neck.

"Not quite......." she gave a sheepish smile before standing up and stretching, "you see, I can't die by a supernatural being/Object, or by myself," she looked at the floor playing with her fingers, "Look I'm really sorry I didn't tell you Cam, it's just----" but Cami cut her off,

"what do you mean you can't die by yourself," Roxy stiffened, looking at anything but the people who were staring at her in the room, she sighed, crossing her arms and shifting her weight on her feet.

"I got in a low place a few years back ok, I took the gun my dad had and put in my mouth, it didn't work though woke up a few hours later blood everywhere, with the bullet on the floor behind me," she was obviously very uncomfortable talking about it. so Cami just walked up and hugged her best friend, happy that she was still alive.

============Time Skip===========

A little while later everyone that would be staying at the compound had been put in a room, they had decided that it would be best if Roxy stayed with them since she was now very involved in what was happening. At the moment she was sat in Elijah's study reading one of the old grimoires that he had in there, a knock pulled her out of her reading. Looking up to see Klaus, she raised an eyebrow at him, "what can I do for you Klaus," he gave a small smug smile, Roxy rolled her eyes, shaking her head slightly.

"Well love is it so bad I am interested in speaking with a beauty such as yourself?" Roxy would have been flattered by him calling her a beauty if not by the look on his face or the history she has had. Again rolling her eyes at him, giving him an annoyed look.

"Not working Klaus, little too smart to be seduced by you thank you very much," she smiled sarcastically at him, he chuckled stepping into the room with his arms held behind his back giving her a cute smug(can he do anything else?) smile.

"Now that's why it will be so much more fun love," she laughed lightly, standing up and carefully placing the grimoire on Elijahs desk walking past Klaus before stopping and looking over her shoulder.

" Well, I doubt it will work but have fun trying," Klaus smiled watching her leave, she walked down the hallway turning a corner only to nearly run into a body. Elijah stopped in front of her, she looked up smiling, "Sorry Elijah wasn't paying attention," she stepped back as he shook his head.

"No it's my apologies, I wasn't looking," he gave her a small respectful smile, as she sidestepped to get around him.

"Have a good night Elijah," sending one last smile over her shoulder before continuing to walk to her room.

"You as well Roxane," was what she heard faintly, as she stopped and looked behind her to see him already gone, finally getting to her room, she didn't even notice that the smile on her face had grown and was completely genuine.
