KLAUS WOULD NOT let her out of his sights. It was almost as if she were being locked inside of the mansion, no escape, no hope for ever escaping unless he allowed it. The hybrids were gone thanks to her so now there were no security guards to keep Melody from doing something else she would regret. And of course what did he do to solve this problem? He called her family. She had been furious, refusing to speak to them over the phone. He then put them on speaker phone and she had cupped her ears and started sobbing.

She didn't want to hear their disappoint or Mary Margaret's reassurance that she would be fine and that it was only a mistake. They would talk to her as if she were a broken toy that needed fixing because someone had continuously smashed it against the floor. No. She didn't want anyone near her. Not even Klaus. Only her in her room, punishing herself for killing Carol Lockwood. The hybrids she didn't care too much more.

The news was buzzing with reports on what happened. What was a relief was that no one got the story right, or had witnessed it besides Klaus. Melody was in the clear but that did nothing to help her situation. She knew. . .she knew what she did was wrong. For the life of her, she couldn't remember why she had done it. Wrong place, wrong time? Revenge on Tyler? No matter what the reasoning was, she sat in her bedroom in the same spot in the corner of her bed, staring out the window.

Klaus had to force her to eat something because the only other place she would go to during the day was the bathroom. She showered though but never ate unless he sat beside her and fed her. It may seem like a silly and childish thing. But no one was as kind as he was when she needed a gentle hand. Pan never knew what to do and felt awkward. Regina wouldn't even ask. Klaus knew exactly what she needed: someone to take care of her. And she knew exactly what he needed: someone to take care of him.

She hadn't tried justifying her actions, knowing that what she did was wrong. When the hybrid would attempt to coax her into talking about anything that was on her mind, she would sit there, and she would listen. Not a word ever came from her mouth. It got to a point where he would start telling her stories of his journeys over the years, relaxing her, and then his voice would make her fall asleep in his arms.

Only two days passed before a few members of her family arrived. Pan was one of them, Killian another, Emma, and Regina. The kids weren't invited because, in a state like this, Melody was truly a ticking bomb that could explode again at any given moment. So David and Snow stayed in the fairytale town to watch the kids. But that was an excuse. They feared her. She knew that.
