Klaus:

Klaus wasn't a huge fan of the rain. The weather would mess up his curly hair, and he viewed it as a hassle. He felt drops of rain roll down his skin.

His dead heart sped up as she moved closer. Klaus didn't understand how she could have such a huge effect on him. Percy softly placed her hand on his cheek and looked up at him. Suddenly, he forgot all about the rain.

He could hear her heartbeat quicken, as she moved even closer to his face. The raven haired beauty glanced down at his lips, and the next moment their lips collided.

The sea green eyed girl moved her lips against him gently. Klaus pulled her in closer and immediately kissed back. He deepened the kiss and Percy's hand found its way to his hair.

He wished it could last forever.

The demigod softly pulled away to catch her breath. Her eyelids fluttered back open to glance up at him.

She's so bloody perfect.

He didn't notice the small happy smile that grew on his face, when he was too busy admiring her own.

She kissed me.

She actually kissed me.

She's going to be the death of me.

Everything about her was so addicting. He couldn't think of anything else but her.

Percy has infiltrated his every thought and action. Her sea green eyes drew him in and it was impossible to stop himself from falling into them.

And, suddenly, the hybrid found himself having a new appreciation for the rain. Any annoyance he harbored against the weather vanished.

Because, she was in his arms. And the onslaught of rain falling from the sky, was nothing compared to the way he was falling for her.

⇀➳⇀❦⇀➳⇀

Percy and Klaus were back in Mystic Falls. The hybrids successfully retrieved the sword from the church in Italy. The demigod used the mist to make airport security believe the item was a carry-on bag.

The raven haired beauty was pacing the living room of the Mikaelson house, holding a juice box. "I'm bored." She dragged out the word 'bored' for emphasis.

Kol sat on the couch, regarding her with amusement. "Well, what do you want to do, darling?"

"I don't knowww." She continued pacing. "I've been sitting on a plane for ten hours, I need to do something fun."

Abruptly, the raven haired beauty grinned as an idea came to her. "Have you ever been laser tagging?"

"No. What is it?" Kol questioned.

"Plastic guns go pew pew with bright colors." Percy explained with her extensive vocabulary.

Kol nodded slowly. "Sounds fun."

The demigod nodded and sipped her juice box.

"So where is this laser tagging?" Kol asked.

Percy laughed.

He's going down.

➳❦➳

Kol and Percy sat in the parking lot of a laser-tagging place. They each held large Icees, which were frozen sugary drinks.

The pair had played fifteen rounds of laser-tagging, before they decided to stop. In the rounds when they were on opposing teams, there was absolute chaos. Both of them were very competitive and incredibly fast.

There were also a few rounds where they were on the same team. During those games, the other team didn't stand a chance. A few people cried.

"You're right." Kol said with a smile. "That was fun."

The sea green eyed girl grinned. "I'm always right."

He shook his head in amusement. The original glanced back at the laser-tagging place. "I accidentally pushed a teen onto the ground."

Percy laughed. "He probably had it coming."

The corners of his lips went up as he took a sip of his drink. He turned to glance at her. "So, what were you and my brother doing? I heard you were in Italy." He spoke with a teasing smirk.

The demigod shrugged. "It was part of the search for the cure."

Kol raised an eyebrow. "Cure?"

"The cure for vampirism." Percy replied.

The original frowned slightly. "Why wasn't I told about this?"

The daughter of the sea shrugged. "I thought you were."

"Hm." Kol stood up, and held his hand out to her. She took it, and he helped her up. "I'm going to go speak with my brother. Want to join?"

She nodded with a smile.

⇀✧⇀

Kol and Percy strided into the Mikaelson mansion. "What's all this talk I've been hearing about finding the cure?"

Klaus, who was sitting on a chair, responded, "We found another hunter. We have the sword that decodes the mark. Now, all we need is to have him kill a few more vampires, and we will have the complete map to the cure."

"And what exactly do you plan to do with it?" The original questioned.

Klaus rose from his seat. "Well, brother, I'll give the cure to my doppelgänger so that I can have an endless supply of hybrids." He began walking out of the room. "Now, I'm going to have my hunter kill some more vampires." The hybrid left the room, after stealing a glance at the demigod.

Kol's phone buzzed, causing him to look down at the screen. He glanced back up at Percy with a cheeky smile. "Rebekah just found someone who knows the location of the cure." The vampire placed his phone back in his pocket. "Would you like to go with?" Kol invited with a devilish smile.

Percy playfully rolled her eyes. Grinning, she responded, "Duh."

The text had informed them that there was a professor, who knew the location of the cure. The pair arrived at the university where he worked. They walked down the hallway, toward his room.

Bonnie walked out of his office, and continued down the hallway. She moved pass Percy and Kol. A look of confusion crossed her face at the sight of the two.

They entered the room, and saw Professor Shane standing in front of his desk.

Kol quickly sped over to the guy, and grabbed him.

Bonnie threw the door back open, but before she could do anything, Percy vapor traveled Kol and the professor out of the room.

The three beings arrived at the highschool. Kol turned to look at the demigod. "Did you just teleport?"

The green eyed girl shrugged. "Kinda."

"Fascinating." He commented. Kol always had an interest in magic or mythological things. Then, the original proceeded to drag Shane towards the school library where Rebekah was.

Upon entry to the room, they saw Rebekah standing in front of a table, holding Rudy. Elena, Stefan, and Caroline were seated at the round table.

"Sister," Kol greeted.

The vampires all turned to look at him and Percy. When Kol saw the group gathered at the table, he commented with a smirk, "Look at this, you're even worse than Klaus."

"Kol." Rebekah greeted flatly. When her eyes drifted to the demigod, her face lit up. "Hello, Percy. I didn't know you were back yet."

The demigod waved. "Hi, Bex."

The blonde original smiled. She glanced back at the puppy in her arms, who was trying to worm his way out of her grip upon seeing Percy. Rebekah gently set him down on the ground, and he ran to her.

The raven haired beauty laughed softly and kneeled down to pet him. "Hi, baby." The dog licked her hand, and his tail wagged. "Who's a good boy?" She smiled as she picked him back up.

Rebekah smiled softly at the pair, before looking back at Kol. "Did you bring me what I asked for?"

Kol pushed the professor into the room, making him stumble.

"You must be Shane." Rebekah greeted with a fake smile.

⇠⇠⇠

Percy sat on the ground petting Rudy. Kol was in another room, trying to convince Shane to tell him the location of the cure.

Rebekah looked at the doppelgänger. "Elena, truth or dare?"

"We're done playing your stupid games, Rebekah." Stefan replied for her.

The sea green eyed girl was mildly offended. "Truth or dare isn't a stupid game, Stefano." She shook her head at him. "I dare you to be less grouchy."

The Salvatore glared at her. "Maybe, I'd be less grouchy if I wasn't compelled to be here."

"Excuses, excuses. Honestly, Steven, we both know you'd be grouchy either way." The demigod retorted.

Rebekah agreed. "Ah, yes Stefan is quite grouchy." She turned back to Elena. "Truth or dare, Elena?"

When the doe eyed girl shook her head, the original continued. "You're compelled. Answer."

"Dare." Elena replied.

Rebekah placed her hands on the table to lean on it. "I dare you to tell Stefan the truth about Damon."

"Seriously?" Caroline demanded.

Smooth.

Percy continued running her fingers through the puppy's fur.

Elena closed her eyes. "Being with Damon makes me happy."

"Makes you happy?" Rebekah made a sound of disbelief. "Clowns make you happy, Elena."

"Clowns are actually kinda weird." Percy thought out loud.

Rebekah nodded at her words. She spared a glance at the demigod, "You're right." The blonde looked back at the doppelgänger. "Dig a little deeper."

Elena continued speaking, "When I'm with him...it feels unpredictable, like...like I'm free."

Rebekah's gaze landed on the Salvatore. "And how do you feel when you're with Stefan?"

"Stop." Caroline said in exasperation.

Yeah...what's the point of these questions? Romance sucks.

"She can't. She's compelled." Rebekah replied.

The brunette spoke up again, "Lately, I feel like I'm a project. Like I'm a problem that needs to be fixed. I think I make him sad."

Well, that doesn't sound like love.

"And I can't be with someone like that because...when he looks at me, all he sees is a broken toy."

Percy looked up. "That's depressing. Bex, what happened to fun truth or dare?"

Rebekah shrugged with a smile. "I'll try, Percy." The blonde looked at Elena. "Do you still love Stefan?"

"Yes."

"Are you still in love with Stefan?" Rebekah asked.

"No."

The tea has been spilt.

Rebekah looked over at the Salvatore. "Did that hurt? Having someone you love drive a dagger through your heart?"

And I oop.

"Go to hell." Stefan replied.

Percy frowned. Hell is not fun.

Bad memories started to come back to the surface. The demigod shook her head and kept her focus on the puppy, in an attempt to push the thoughts away.

"Did that hurt?" Rebekah seethed, each word filled with poison.

"Yes." Stefan finally admitted.

"Welcome to the last nine hundred years of my life." The original spoke, with pain laced in her voice.

Aw, Bex.

The door to the room slammed open, as Tyler stormed in.

"Ah, good, you're here." Rebekah spoke to Tyler. "It was just getting depressing."

"What the hell is going on?" Tyler questioned.

Rebekah looked at the vampires at the table. "Listen to the rules carefully. Stay in the building. No vamp-running in the hallways."

"Vamp-running from what?" Caroline asked.

The blonde original smiled a bit. She turned to Tyler and compelled him. "Turn."

"What?" Elena demanded.

Caroline added. "You can't. He'll lose control."

"That's the point. I've exhausted all your knowledge." Rebekah replied. "Now I have the professor to help me find the cure, you're just competition. Whoever finds it first gets to decide what to do with it. Use it, share it, destroy it, save it. I want that to be me."

Tyler argued, "But if I turn, I'll kill them."

"Yes, you will."

Dun Dun Dun.

"Turn." Rebekah commanded.

Percy wasn't really concerned by the situation. If Tyler bit Caroline, she would convince Klaus to give her some of his blood.

Rebekah glanced at the demigod and sent her a genuine smile. "Would you like to come with me to check on Kol?"

The demigod nodded and rose from her spot on the ground. Rebekah, Percy, and Rudy walked into the room where Kol was interrogating the professor.

The original was holding Shane up in front of a sink filled with water. "Where is the cure?" Kol demanded.

Shane glanced at Rebekah and Percy. The blonde spoke. "You're human. Why do you want it anyway?"

"That's the beauty of this." The guy replied. "You can have it. I just want Silas."

Who is Silas?

"No." Kol shoved the professor backwards. He roughly grabbed Shane. "What do you know about Silas?"

"He's the world's first immortal being," the professor answered, "who just happens to be imprisoned with the cure."

How lovely.

Percy had a bad feeling about this Silas guy. And her instincts tended to be pretty accurate.

Shane continued, "And I want to free him."

"No!" Kol exclaimed. He promptly threw the guy at the wall.

"Yo yo yo. Calm down, homie." Percy spoke. "Have you tried asking him nicely?"

Kol glanced at Percy and Rebekah.

The blonde pointed out, "He's no use to us dead, Kol."

The original was frustrated by her words. "Did you not hear what he said?! Silas will kill us all, sister."

"Well, that doesn't sound good." The demigod pointed out, as she held Rudy.

Rebekah shook her head. "Silas does not exist."

Percy glanced at Kol. "I don't know. I have a feeling Kol is right about this."

The female original disagreed. "Silas is a fairytale made to scare children into eating their vegetables."

"Silas is very real." The professor spoke. "I know where he's buried. And soon, I'll have the spell that wakes him."

Kol stopped him, "Wait a second. You're lying. You can't get to him without his—"

"Tombstone?" Professor Shane interrupted. "Dozens to die in a blood sacrifice? Believe me, I know. I've done it."

So are all teachers in this town evil? First Alaric, now this guy?

Shane continued, "Those massacres are a pain to engineer."

"You're the one who got the council blown up." Rebekah realized in shock.

The professor shook his head. "It was a noble sacrifice...and temporary because once I raise Silas...Silas will raise the dead."

"Oh, so is this guy crazy then?" Percy

wondered aloud.

Shane didn't confirm nor deny. "He will bring back every last soul, who died on his behalf."

"No." Kol swiftly grabbed a mop from a bucket in the room and sped at the guy, stabbing him with the end of the mop. Shane sank to the ground.

Dang.

Thankfully, Rudy didn't witness the scene. His puppy eyes were looking at the other side of the room.

Rebekah narrowed her eyes at Kol furiously. "You killed my chance at finding a cure."

"Silas on the loose would be hell on earth. And frankly, sister, I don't think you could handle it."

✦⇿⇿✦

Percy laid on top of the hybrid's bed. She turned her head to look at Klaus, who was laying beside her. "Nik, are you sure looking for the cure is a good idea?"

The curly haired original brought his attention to her. "Do you think it's not?"

She shrugged. "We found out today that the cure is buried with some guy named Silas. And Kol said that Silas' followers claimed he would rise again and trigger the end of all time. That doesn't exactly sound great."

The hybrid nodded slightly. "Are you only mentioning this because Kol said something?"

Percy shook her head. "No, it's not just that...my instincts are telling me that this Silas guy is real. And what if getting the cure, has a lot of bad consequences?" She pointed out.

Klaus looked away for a moment, deep in thought. "Alright, love."

"What exactly are you saying 'alright' to?" Her eyebrow rose.

The hybrid looked into her eyes. "If you truly think that searching for the cure could be a bad idea, I will consider stopping the quest for it." He spoke truthfully to the demigod.

"I trust you, love. Although, if I'm being honest, trusting people isn't something I like doing."

Percy slowly moved her hand towards his and held it. She looked up at him, and softly said, "I know."

He moved closer to her. "And you also realize that not getting the cure for Elena, would mean I can't create more hybrids."

The raven haired beauty stared into his eyes. Her voice grew even softer, "I know making hybrids is really important to you."

Klaus stared right back into the sea green irises in front of him. The moment was broken by an adorable puppy.

Rudy, who was previously laying at the end of the bed, abruptly moved himself so that he was squished in between his two owners.

In that moment, Klaus felt like he had a family; a pack, who was loyal to him. Even with his hybrids, there were times where he still felt lonely.

But the original realized he didn't feel so alone when he was with the demigod.

The thought scared him. After all, he had become accustomed to feeling isolated and lonely in the world.

Yet, as he looked into her sea green eyes, that brought him comfort, Klaus couldn't help but trust her just a little bit.

⇀⇀✦❦✦⇀⇀

I have no idea what I'm doing. Yay!

So, @livster76 wanted to see a Klaus pov after the kiss. There's kinda a small one in the beginning. I know it's not in first person though.

Thoughts or suggestions?
