Hunters of Life

11. Art & Romance

Elijah and I drove home silent. I'm still surprised how I'm Klaus' weakness. That's bad...right? I mean I don't want anything bad to happen to him... And I'm the one that can cause his downfall. I rather be away from him than be in the one to hurt him. I kept battling inside my mind how this witch story was going to affect our 'relationship?' I seriously don't know what to call it. Elijah parked the car outside the mansion and Klaus' BMW X3 was already parked outside which means he's home. How am I going to face him and say that the best is for us the stay away from each other because I can hurt him? We walked inside and went into the lounge where Klaus was seating in a big armchair.

"Hey Love, how was the little trip?" He asked walking up to me and placing a light kiss on my cheek. He looked at Elijah that had a very annoyed look plastered in his face. "What's wrong brother?" Klaus asked preoccupied.

"We need to talk." Elijah told him. "Alone, perhaps." No way this is about me too. I'm not walking away.

"No way! I'm staying." I told Elijah and sat in the armchair Klaus was previously sitting on.

"What the hell is going on Elijah?" Klaus went over to his cabinet where he had all the bourbon and poured himself a drink. He walked over and leaned against the back of the armchair I was on.

"We have a problem with the witches. We ran into one in the cemetery. They're plotting something against us brother." Klaus' preoccupied face turned into a angry one.

"They dare to do it and I'll tear them apart." Klaus told Elijah determined.

"They believe I'm your weakness. Which means that I'm your downfall. I shouldn't have come." I told them heading to the back door. In a blink of an eye Klaus was in front of me with a worried face. He placed his hands in both sides of my face.

"Don't say that Love. You're the best thing that happened to me in many centuries." I looked into his deep blue eyes and he seemed so truthful.

"I don't want you to get hurt." I told him looking and my feet. He pulled my head up placing his thumb in my chin pushing my head up.

"I will never get hurt Love. I've been in this world for over a 1000 years and I have never found anyone like you. Being hurt by you would be an honor." He told me honestly. His head was coming closer to my own and when our lips were about to touch Elijah called us.

"Sorry to interrupt but I believe we have to sort this out." Elijah told us taking a seat in one of the couches.

"I believe we can sort things later. They don't stand a chance against us, anyway." Klaus told his brother not taking his eyes off of me. Elijah smiled and gestured for us to take our time. "Follow me." Klaus whispered me and started walking away. I did as he said.

Klaus walked into a big office full of paintings. There were paintings all over the floor, in the walls, in the arms hairs, in the desk...

"Wow! Where did you find them?" I asked walking up to a black painting. No one knew but I was a very artistic person myself. Neither Elena or Jeremy knew that even if I knew Jeremy liked to draw too. I had a few paintings I did hid in my room. This painting transmitted me so many feelings. To be honest I had done one alike a few month ago, after my parents died. The painting I held in my hands transmitted some sort of loneliness that could be seen by the use of dark colors and the abstract objects within.

"I did them myself." He told me proudly. He walked up to me. I looked into his eyes in disbelief.

"No way! You are so good!" I told him excited. He chuckled.

"You enjoy art?" He asked and I put the painting down on the floor again. I nodded and turned to him so I could be looking into his eyes. "What do you think of that one?" He asked me intrigued.

"It makes me feel sad, actually. It transmits loneliness, anger, hate... I have painted one sort of alike a few months ago." He had a surprised look upon his very handsome face. His blonde short beard made him look so hot.

"That's really what you think?" He asked crossing his arms in front of his chest.

"Why? I'm right, aren't I?" He nodded smiling but that smile quickly fade away.

"All my life I have lived with hate building up inside of me." He looked sad now. "My family always hated me and to be honest I didn't do anything so they wouldn't. But what makes me hate most is the hate my Father had for me. He tried to kill me for the past 1000 years." I widened my eyes with the part of his life he had shared with me.

"I'm so sorry to hear that." I told him. He kept his eyes locked with his feet. I placed my hand on his cheek making him look at me quickly. "I'm here for anything you need." I told him. He gave me a small smile.

"I know." He told me. His eyes glowed. His blue iris made him look so human. But his eyes held as much sadness as his painting showed. But I needed to change that. I quickly lean in and kissed his lips softly. At our touch I felt him flinch but then relaxed. I broke the kiss apart. He looked at me incredulously. I think he wasn't expecting that...

"Sorry... I shouldn't have..." Suddenly his lips touched mine once again. Our lips moved upon each other. It felt so nice. This feeling he transmited me made me feel so save. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. He kissed me so passionately. He pulled me up making me wrap my legs around his hips and he thrown some paintings with his arm off the desk and sat me on it. We kept kissing. I felt his hands ran through my body. They squeezed my tight and went up moving through the waist to my back. I felt his hand again in my tight. Suddenly someone walked throught the door making us break apart.

"Wow!!! You've moved fast!!!" Kol smirked from the door way. I hid my face in Klaus' chest. I felt Klaus chuckle.

"What do you want Kol?" Klaus' voice was now serious and not very friendly.

"Dinner is ready." Kol clapped his hands and left the room. I finally let out a small laugh and looked at Klaus who actually laughed with me.

"That was... Akward." I let out climbing off the desk. I walked up to the door but Klaus grabbed my hand and pulled me to him and kissed me softly.

"Where are you going?" He asked me breaking the kiss apart.

"Eat. Opposite to you... I do have to eat normal food." He chuckled and I kissed him again making him smile. I left the room making Klaus stay there paralyzed.
