After breakfast, Klaus and I headed to the wolf girl. We are walking to her room now, Klaus next to me. I glance at him every so often, curious to know what his thoughts were on us being here. I always had a small crush on him. I'm one to like the more forbidden ones. And how can you be more forbidden than Klaus? Ezra was nothing compared to what Klaus is. I glance back at him again only to find his blue eyes looking into mine. Turning a slight red, I clear my throat and look to the other side, mentally cursing at myself.

"So tell me about yourself, Aria." Klaus speaks, rather softly.

"Uhm... Well I am from Rosewood, Pennsylvania. I have a typical family: mother, father and a brother. However, my parents are divorced. My brother is a little off but it's mainly due to all the drama that has happened in the past two years. I like starting new trends for myself and I'm actually the mother of the group. I calm down fights and take care of the girls, but with a recent incident, I've turned more rebellious than any of the others. I like darker colors, they calm me down. I'm on the trying new things side. I love forbidden things as well. My relationships were never normal. And I have no clue why I'm talking about relationships, I'm sorry," I ramble and look up at Klaus to see him grinning at me, "What?"

"Nothing, you just have a very interesting life. Now, incident? What incident?" Klaus stops us and raises an eyebrow at me.

Sighing, "That is a long story, Klaus. And one to tell another time with the whole group."

"No, I'm asking now, so tell me." Klaus demands but not in a ordering way, more of a soft and intrigued way.

"Well, let's meet your wolf girl and I'll explain to both of you." I promise and he sighs but agrees and leads me to a door in the far left.

He knocks before opening it enough to poke his head in. After checking, he opens it wider and gestures for me to enter. The first thing that catches my eye is a girl a bit older than me, sitting on the window seat. Her brown hair was put up in a ponytail and her eyes were egyptian shaped. They were enchanting. She had small lips that were in a small, unsure smile. Her face was soft looking and a bit round. I look down and gasp as I see her round little bump. Smiling softly, I approach her and kneel in front of her.

"Hi, my name is Aria. I'm here to protect you and the rest of these people. I don't really know that much about you. So could I start with a name?" I smile at her and she chuckles a bit before replying, "Hayley, it's nice to meet you, Aria."

"Hayley! That's a lovely name! I really like your sense in clothing, Hayley, but don't let Allison see. She would practically burn your clothes and get you all designer clothes." I laugh with her and I see Klaus smile a bit in the corner of my eye.

"So Aria, what are you?" Hayley asks and I reply, "I'm a hybrid."

"A hybrid? Like Klaus?" Hayley asks, clearly puzzled.

"Haha no not exactly. I'm a hybrid of witch and Fae. I can transform into a Fae after I complete my training. But I can perform certain spells, too. My element of strongest power, however, is fire. My other companions are the same as I am, each having their own element. Hanna has air, Ally has earth and Spencer has water. My runaway friend however has spirit. Something that is a key to keeping us all in balance. However, she isn't with us right now. She is on vacation." I explain and Hayley simply nods before grimacing a bit.

"What's wrong?" Klaus immediately appears next to her and she shakes her head, "Nothing, your baby just likes to move a lot."

"Can I feel?" I ask quietly and she widens her eyes before breaking out in a grin and nodding.

I place my hands on the round bump and close my eyes. I listen for the little heart beat and smile when I find it. I giggle as I hear its thoughts on being hungry. It isn't even that big yet. Still small but it will get big soon. Ah, it's a girl. How nice!

"It's going to be a princess." I say as I open my eyes and stand up again and Hayley looks at me, "How did you know?"

"Haha, I can sense things like that. Faeries can do that. We have a special connection to children." I explain and plop onto her bed.

"So Aria, you were going to tell us about the incident." Klaus inquires and leans against the bed post.

"Oh right. Well a few years ago, about four ish, Ally, Emily, Spencer, Hanna, and I were BFFs. Inseparable. Ally was like our ring master. Whatever she said, goes. One night, Ally disappeared. We were all devastated afterwards. My father got us to move to another country and we stayed there for a year or so before coming back. The night we came back, I met Ezra. He had just got out of school and was going to be teaching, I didn't think much of it when he told me. We ended up making out and such. Anyways, I started school and found the other four girls who drastically changed. Hanna became a supermodel practically and the school queen bee with the nobody Mona. Spencer was still the overachiever. Emily was on the swim team and played great," I pause to take a breath, "However suddenly we started to get these messages and threats from this person, A. A knew all of our secrets, but only secrets that Ally knew of each of us. That brought the group back together. At first we thought it was Ally, but then police found her body and confirmed she died. Then we were on a loop of being kidnapped and betrayed and threatened until we found out Mona was A."

Klaus and Hayley seemed so intrigued by my story that my second pause made them say, "Keep going!"

"Okay, okay, geez! Mona got sent to the mental hospital until we got messages again. Got help from Mona and after many almost deaths and dead people and witchs, we finally found out my boyfriend and teacher Ezra was stalking us. He was doing that to write a book about our lives. Ally met him before any of us and got him intrigued by A. He wasn't A but he led us to finding Ally who wasn't dead. After finding, Ally, we got scared of A and Emily ran away from the shock of us figuring out our powers and everything. Since then, we've been looking for Emily before A found her. We don't know who A is anymore, but we now have the power to destroy them and end this once and for all." I finish and Hayley claps.

"So is this A still messaging you?" Klaus asks worried clearly.

"Well, we changed our numbers and so nothing yet. But we are still on the edge." I say and Klaus nods, "Wow, what a jerk! Ezra will not be able to get to you, dear. I'll make sure of it!"

My heart fluttered at that. He cared! I smile and whisper a thank you before jumping at the vibration in my pocket. I take out my phone to find a message. My face falls and I'm shocked.

"What is it?" Hayley questions and I look up at them with tears in my eyes, "It's my brother, Mike. He's in the hospital."
