Some Say Ice

Show You Up

Nik , Stefan and I made it to our rooms. I walked into the room i was sharing with Nik and threw my bags onto a random bed and started taking out clothes to sleep in and necessary things for a shower. "Nathaniel is quite a determined little thing isn't he?" Nik says putting his bag on the other bed and sitting on the edge facing me. "Yep he sure is gonna be in for a surprise when Stef opens the door instead of me." I said with a smile thinking he was making small talk. "Well it's not like you didn't seem interested." He remarked. This made me stop searching through my clothes. "Are you jealous or something?" I said turning to him with a hand on my hip. "Let's not get off topic, love. Were you or were you not attracted to the desk boy?" He said gritting his perfect teeth slightly. "That isn't any of your business if i was or not." I said crossing my arms. "So you were." He said flexing his jaw as he clentched his pearly teeth together. "No." I said getting frustrated. "So you weren't attracted to him." He said raising a questioning brow his tone remaining the same. "What is this? What are you doing? Is this something you do when your bored, cause its exhausting?" I said running a hand through my wavy scarlet locks. He sped me into the wall next to the bathroom door holding me there by one of his hands on my waist and the other holding the side of my face. I stayed there silent looking into his ocean blue eyes letting the sparkling feeling of our skin making contact radiate on my skin. His breathing was a bit deep from the intensity of the conversation and him trying to control his frustration . I felt my eyes glow red and saw Nik's eyes change to his hybrid eyes. I lifted my hand slowly and caressed the veins under his eyes. He is truly magnificent. Nik's hands left their place on my body taking their warmth with them but he still stood in the same close proximity. I let my hand fall and broke our eye contact letting my glowing red eyes return to their green color. "No I wasn't attracted to him." I said and moved around Nik grabbing my clothes to sleep in and my shower things before walking to the bathroom. "Don't get me wrong he is cute. Just not what I prefer." I said from the door way of the bathroom not looking at Nik the whole time before closing the door and starting the shower letting it warm up.

I let out a deep breath to settle my nerves before getting undressed and showering. I came out of the bathroom freshly showered wearing a big black shirt and black spandex shorts. I saw Nik at his bed searching through his bag, shirtless, with his back facing me. I let my eyes travel over every muscle and dip in his back as well as the triangle tattoo on one of his shoulders. "Can I help you, love?" He asks , his cocky attitude returning. "Why a triangle?" I asked referring to the tattoo. "Why not?" he said turning to me and I see another tattoo on his shoulder of a feather that has birds flying from it. "I mean I know that it can symbolize creativity and male power, I just wanted to know your meaning behind it. If there was a deeper meaning other than because you wanted it, I guess the same could be asked about my tattoo, though." I said. "You have a tattoo?" He asked with his brow raised his eyes inspecting the bare parts of my figure. "Yes. Why are you looking at me like that?" I ask sitting on my bed. "Well, sweetheart, i have yet to see it so I am a bit curious." He said. "And you wont ever see it." I said in a matter of fact tone. "And why is that?" He said in a playful tone. "Let's just say it's in a very....intimate location." I said with a sarcastic smile before laying down in the bed to sleep. Leaving the hybrids mind to run wild about where my tattoo could possibly be. I don't know what is going on with us. One minute its small talk, the next it's this intense moment. I know a large part of it is the mate bond, the part that draws us to each other. I eventually fall asleep and dream of nothing.

Niklaus's P.O.V.

I watch as her breathing patterns relax and her heart beat slows indicating she was asleep. I have this need to be around her and I hate it. I'm an original, a hybrid, I don't need anybody. But, then in walks this this crimson haired beauty and suddenly I need her. She's without a doubt absolutely gorgeous (any man or woman can see that), she has a fire in her that could wipe out worlds, She has a grace in her that could put any queen I've met to shame, She has an attitude that she carelessly throws my way despite my reputation and it only excites me more. I shake my head of those thoughts, I have more important things at hand then to ponder about some girl. I went back to searching through my bag for toiletries and sleep wear so I could properly shower. As I finish finding what I need I hear a knock on the door, Stefan's door, and get a wide smirk while pausing to listen to what happens next.
