Oddly Strange

Jerome opened his tired green eyes as he felt the sun peek through the window curtains. The red head stretched a bit, he looked over seeing Josette sleeping. Jerome smiled tucking her brown hair behind her ear. He decided not to wake her. The man quietly got out out of her bed putting his clothes back on.

All the Mikaelson kids were eating quietly down stairs. Elijah was pacing around back and forth. "So who do you guys think it is?" Everyone looked up at him, Kol didn't bother he was to busy playing with his food in front of him.

"What are you talking about?" Gabe asked with his mouth full. Elijah face palmed. "Yesterday, I heard Josette..." He paused and began to whisper cupping his hand around his mouth. "With a guy last night."

Philip looked up at him confused. "Okay?" The seventeen year old shrugged. "Who was the guy?" Philip question focusing more on his cereal. "This might sound fucking insane but I think she was with Jerome."

The kitchen was silent. All Elijah's siblings were looking at each other. Then his brothers broke out in laugher. The one year old Kol clapped his hands laughing along as well. Elijah rolled his eyes "Shut up Kol you don't even know what we're saying."

"They caught Jerome. He's in GCPD custody." Peter informed fixing his glasses. "Haven't you guys been watching the news?" His siblings gave Elijah a confused look, each one tilting their heads. Elijah sighed having to explain. "Jerome had a corrupt cop working for him. And that cop helped him escape. So no one knows where he is. But he could be right upstairs." The Mikaelson siblings got up, Katie and Kol who were the youngest stayed behind.

Philip, Elijah, Peter And Gabe slowly walked up the stairs. "What if she's dead?" Gabe whispered. In response his brothers shushed him. The boys approached the closed door. Philip put his ear against the wooden material. Gabe looked at him giving him a look that said 'what's happening?' The seventeen year old shook his head. "Nothing."

The copper doorknob started to slowly turn making the boys stand up straight. Then the door opened. Jerome looked to his left seeing Josettes brothers. A confused look took over his face. "What are you guys doing?" He asked. "Nothing." They nervously said at the same time.

Jerome made his way down stairs with the teenage boys following behind. "So...you and my sister?" Elijah asked. "Yeah. What about her?" Jerome asked as he opened the fridge.

"You guys together or just a one time thing?" Philip spoke up. Jerome stopped for a second to think. "I don't know." He answered facing them. Although he did want to be with her, but he didn't know if they were still friends.

The boys sat back down at the table. Gabe put us spoon down. "Wait but didn't you kidnap her?" Jerome nodded rolling his eyes. "Right. That whole thing was fake." He closed the fridge and stood next to the little blonde girl. "Who's this?" Jerome asked pointing at her. "Um our sister. Katie." Peter responded.

The seven year old looked up at him with a blank face. "Yeah she doesn't talk much." Philip warned
"I can see that." He replied. Katie continued to stare at the unfamiliar ginger. She offered him a small piece of toast. Jerome took it from her small hands. "Thanks kid." He said after taking a bite.

"Are you gonna kill us or something." Gabe questioned with a hint of fear showing. "Nope. Not into killing kids. That isn't really my thing."

"J-Just so you know the Mikaelsons aren't snitches. So we won't rat you out to the GCPD." Peter reassured. "Guys. Calm down if he kills us then he can't get into Josettes pants." Jerome opened his mouth to argue. He sighed "Yeah you're right."
