The Vampire Diaries

Kaida shook her head, "It was just a way to try as get you and your brother talking, that's all." she replied before shrugging in response.

----
"I'm trusting what you said was ture, do it again and I won't be so forgiving though." Astrid told him quietly, resting her head on his shoulder and brushing her fingers through his hair affectionately, adding softly, "My handsome fiancé."

-----
Henrik continued to whimper, though the whimpers slowly quietened until he fell asleep.

"But I know you and Tatia are friends."

"It's fine, Elijah."

He kissed her forehead.

"It won't happen again, I assure you."

--

Tatia sighed in relief when he went to sleep, keeping the rocking up for a few more minutes before relaxing back.

Kaida kissed him on the lips in return.

---
"Took them both long enough," Klaus whispered quietly, pulling Tatia gently onto his lap.

----
"Good,"

"Tell me about it," Tatia laughed in agreement as she snuggled up to him.

---

Kol just held her tightly.

He kissed her back.

Kaida kept it brief, soon pulling away.

----
Klaus lowered his head to kiss the top of hers genty.

----
Astrid was silent for a while, just enjoying being near him before slowly pulling away.

(( Gotta go sort the horse out )))

"I think they were keeping awake on purpose." She laughed, "Just to make us tired."

---

Kol watched her quietly.

He smiled softly at her.

"It's been twelve hours... Could you phone her now please?" Astrid asked him quietly.

----
Klaus laughed a bit, "Maybe they were, you never know."

----
Kaida smiled back.

Kol sighed and nodded, pulling away from her and getting his phone out from his pocket, dialing a number and setting it on loudspeaker.

--

"They definitely were." Tatia hummed, taking his hand and lacing her fingers with his.

Astrid sat down on the edge of the bed and listened quietly.

---
Klaus squeezed her hand gently.

"I thought I'd told you I'd call you when I wanted to speak to you again?" Olivia answered tersely, sounding annoyed and tired.

"Well I thought I'd call first, check how your flight was, see that you were okay... tell you that - "

"Last night was a mistake? Yeah, you've told me that about a thousand times. Seriously I get it, you're with her. Which I had to bloody remind you of, arsehole."

----

Tatia watched his hand quietly, rubbing her finger over his wedding band.

"I love you."

Astrid frowned at that and just raised an eyebrow at Kol.

----
"Love you, Tat," Klaus hummed.

----
"Love you too," Kaida replied.

Kol just sighed at that, "Listen Ollie, after what happened... I think we should stop seeing each other, completely."

There was silence on the other end for about a minute, before a quiet disbelieving laugh. "You told her and she's making you stop being friends with me isn't she?"

"No actually. This is all me, I just don't think we should be friends anymore."

"Have fun with your wedding then, since without me you wont have anyone else to invite, since you know that anyone you do invite will ask you where I am, and then you'll have to tell them. Bye Kol." Olivia snapped, before cutting off the call.

---

Tatia looked up and kissed his cheek with a small smile at that. "I know... I love you too."

"Kol," Astrid frowned, walking to him and taking his hand gently, "Only wanted you to tell her you were mine, is all. Why'd you do that, pretty boy?" she asked softly.

---
He smiled.

"Because it needed to be done." Kol replied simply.

---

Tatia rested her head on his shoulder, nuzzling her face in his neck.

Astrid slid an arm around him in a hug, whispering, "Why? She's you friend, pretty boy, why do you feel you needed to do that?"

---
Klaus tangled his fingers in her hair.

"Because if we were still friends, she'd expect to be invited to the wedding. Would you really have wanted her there?" Kol raised an eyebrow. "I did it for you Astrid." he shrugged.

---

Tatia smiled at the feeling of it.

"I would of put up with her for you," She sighed softly with a frown, resting her hand on the side of his face with a frown, "Don't want you to be unhappy and give up your friends for me just because I get insecure sometimes, sweetie…. Thank you though, m'glad I mean that much to you."

----
Klaus kissed the side of her head.

"It would've ruined your day, don't lie." Kol just rolled his eyes. "She's right about one thing though... but at least I won't have to bother writing out invitations." he shrugged as he sat down on the bed.

---

Tatia closed her eyes and sighed in content as she relaxed against him.

"I'm not lying, I would of put up with her for you. Just like I have been so far." She replied, sitting down beside him with a sigh and resting her hand on his knee.

-----
Klaus smiled a bit.
