I looked at myself in the mirror, and smiled. This is exactly what I needed, change. With the tin foil in my hair, I looked like a madman but beauty takes time. A compelled hair dresser would be nice, but I just didn't feel like being in the compound right now. We could've had one more guest, but Freya was on the outskirts of the city, with Keelin.
"You already changed your hair, and now you want to do it again?" The dresser spun me around in the chair to face my friend.
"Yeah, like ten years ago Beks." We were both tin heads, and I question what she was getting done to her hair. We decided not to tell one another, and that it would be a surprise.
"You know, I like this. Hanging out with you, nothing supernatural to worry about." I nodded my head agreeing with her, and I huffed when I heard my phone ringing from my pocket.
"Speaking of the devil.." I pulled it out, and looked at the name.
"Is it Nik?" I nodded. It was a struggle getting the phone to my ear with the foil in the way, but I connected the call.
"What are you and Rebekah up to."
"Hello to you, too."
"I'm serious, Nora." I could tell that he was still irritated.
"Relax..emotions are back, and decisions are thought out." I smiled even though he couldn't see me.
"Well an Original and a Tribrid are missing from the compound, due to recent events it sounds a little off. Sorry, if I have my concerns." Attitude does not look good on him.
"Apology accepted." I hung up the phone, and Rebekah shook her head at me.
"I hope you know he's going to come looking for us."
"Oh, I know. Oh well if he does, I can ask him what he did with Elijah." I sighed.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, Klaus ended up biting him after Elijah said..something that set a trigger off. Healing him is way over Klaus's ego, and I can't just let him suffer." She paused, and pursed her lips at me.
"You have my brothers fighting over you." She smirked, but I tilted my head.
"I don't have anybody fighting over anything. Klaus made something out of nothing, as per usual, and now for some reason I feel like the bad guy." I glanced up the dresser who was doing my hair, and saw that she was pulling the foil off.
"You're not the bad guy, you just turned your emotions back on. They shouldn't be stressing you out over petty matters like this." I watched the dressers face morph, as she took a few steps back from me, and I slightly leaned out of my chair, catching her in a gaze.
"It's okay, you don't remember what we said, and you're not remember anything else we say." I relaxed back in the chair, and smirked.
"See if my humanity was still off, she would've been my brunch."

I fixed my hair, in the mirror, and smiled wide. It looked great, and I felt great.
"Now I like this look on you so much better." I turned around, and saw Rebekah standing behind me.
My side swept bangs grew out, so I got long layers and a middle part. Since my part changed, the purple was on both sides of my hair but I also added some caramel highlights. When she looked at me, and I looked at her, our reactions were the same.
"Okay, Beks." I walked up closer to her, and she flipper her newly platinum hair over her shoulder.
"You like?"
"I love...So how does it go? The blonder you get, the dumber?" Her lips formed a flat line, but I caught the corner of them pull upwards. She grabbed me by my arm, and drug me out of the boutique.
"Come on."
The excitement from getting a new hairstyle only lasted for so long, until we were forced back into reality, one where hair really wasn't that important. It was pretty warm outside for it to be nearing Christmas, and if you thought New Orleans was lit up, wait until the holidays. All was well as we walked back home, I enjoyed the sun warming up my face, until I felt a tap on my shoulder.
"We're being followed."
"What?"
"Were being followed, take a look around." I slowly looked around us, and saw about five girls watching our every move, but they weren't even being discrete about it. It was easy to spot somebody in a crowd that was staring right at you. I saw more, and more of them coming by the minute; from behind ally's and cars.
"Oh, no." I looked back down.
" 'Oh, no?' " She mimicked me. "What do you mean, 'Oh, no?' " I continued to play it off it off as we didn't see them.
"Remember Davina, I kind of threatened her." I whispered to keep my voice down, and she rolled her eyes at me.
"No, what you did in the compound was threatening her."
"Okay, fine, I tried to kill her. I guess Marcel came in and saved her life just in time..he probably set this up. I should call Klaus."
"You don't think we can take them?" I stopped in my tracks, and turned to face her.
"I don't know where you've been the last decade, but do you remember the last time we tried to take on witches. Not only that...Davina is the Regent leader of-"
My eyebrows furrowed, and my jaw dropped.
"Nora, Nora what!" I was paralyzed with pain, so much so that my eyes rolled to the back of my head and I blacked out.
