《Home | The Originals》Chapter 7: Charity Ball
Advertisement
I was walking around the party looking at everything. Angel was at the mansion with Hayley tonight and she was sleep so it gave me the opportunity to escape. "Hello, luv." I heard someone say and I turn around to see Klaus and Rebekah arm and arm together, both wearing black.
"You clean up nice." I said looking him up and down before I settle my eyes back on his face.
"Where's Angel? I thought she likes being able to touch you." Rebekah asked me. "She's sleeping. I have Hayley looking after her, maybe this will help her learn how to be a parent while I escape from motherhood." I answered receiving a smile from both of the siblings.
I went to the other side of Klaus and he wraps his other arm with mine and we just stand there and look at the performers dancing with hula hoops, snakes, silk ropes. My eyes then drift back to the crowd where I see Cami walking in wearing a white dress and angel wings on her back. She looks beautiful... but not as beautiful as me. "What's she doing here?" Klaus asked as he watches Cami looks around the party.
"What better way to distract Marcel than to put his very human, new girl in a room chock full of vampires?" Rebekah said as she let's go of Klaus arm and walks towards Cami to greet her.
"So, what did you do?" I asked him making look down at me. After 1000 years of being a hybrid I was still stuck at a 5'2 and it bothered me that I have to look up at my prey.
"I may have, technically, made someone break Marcel's rule." Klaus said looking at me evilly.
"Am I going to lose an employee?" I asked him but he only smiled at me. "Guess I got to put up a help wanted sign. I may not have liked Katie but I needed her to take care of my store while I be a mother." I said.

"Is He the infamous on-again/off-again?" I heard Cami say and that makes Klaus walk up to the two blondes, dragging me with him as well. "He's the brother, actually, and my sister is right. You do look stunning." Klaus said then looked down at me. "Both of you."
"Thanks. You clean up pretty well yourself." Cami said. "Well, don't be fooled, luv. I'm the devil in disguise." Klaus said with a very proud smile on his face.
I rolled my eyes and pulled my arms out of his. "Your ego is making me claustrophobic so I'm going to go see if I can dance with someone." I told the three and left from this small hurdle. Time flew past as this party continues but to me it felt like everything was just slow. I don't have much friends since I keep to myself and when I do talk to someone I'm usually threatening them at the end and they know to stay out my way. I finish up my drink and set it on a nearby table and start to head to the exit when someone grabbed my hand and yanked into their chest. I looked up and see Klaus staring down at me. "What are you doing?" I asked him as he makes us sway back and forth with the music.
"Is it a crime to dance with a gorgeous woman?" He asked me. "Flattery will get you no where, Klaus." I told him ignoring that I got goosebumps from his compliment. "Call me, Nik." He told me and I only nodded my head. "I'm not calling you Nick until I feel like it." I told him. He didn't say anything after that. We just enjoyed our peaceful silence. "I meant what I said, luv. You are gorgeous." He said breaking the silence between us.

I put my chin on top of his shoulders. "Thank you." I whispered for him to hear. We continue to just dance together, like it was just us two and there was no dancers, no people, and no drama. I looked around me and saw Marcel storming towards a very guilty Thierry. "Looks like your plan worked." I told him and he stopped dancing with me to see what I was talking about.
"Go home, Phoenix. I don't want you getting hurt when things get rough." Klaus told me and I nodded my head then walked to the exit.
