The Vampire Diaries

"If you were a burden I wouldn't be around."

----

Tatia stayed how she was for a few minutes, clinging onto him tightly.

"You're just so grumpy, I see where Viol gets it from."

---
Klaus just held her close.

Finn just raised his eyebrows.

---

"Sorry for being so stupid," Tatia whispered after a few more minutes, "I should've just moved and now look what I've gone and done."

Alarick followed them just as howls of werewolves ran out and wolves soon started to run at them.

"Violets grumpy to," Malvolio pointed out. "She didnt get it from mum, mum wasn't grumpy, but you are so it's obviously you she gets it from."

---
"The baby's probably fine, Tat, don't worry,"

---
Jeremy groaned and grabbed Alarick's wrist, running as quickly as he could and dragging Alarick along behind him.

"I am not grumpy."

----

"But we don't know that! And if it isn't then it'll be my fault."

Elena and Stefan climbed into a tree and Alarick done the same.

"Yeah you are," Malvolio teased with a laugh, smirking over his shoulder at him, "Very grumpy, all the time."

---
"It wouldn't be, it'd be Violet's." Klaus replied.

---
Jeremy climbed up a tree silently.

Elena, Stefan and Alarick watched as werewolves surrounded the tree, all trying to get a bite of them."

"Being quiet does not make me grumpy."

-----

Tatia just shook her head and pulled away from Klaus, wiping underneath her eyes as she suddenly froze.

"Nope, but never laughing or smiling does - I've never heard you laugh before ."

---
Klaus watched her quietly.

----
Jeremy watched the wolves without a word.

Tatia suddenly started laughing, it was a shaky laugh, clearly one of relief.

-----

"Say something I find funny and I'll laugh."

"It moved?" She asked quietly.

---
"What do you find funny?"

Elena looked at her brother. "Are you ok Jeremy?"

"Yeah, fine,"

Tatia nodded, eagerly grabbing one of his hands and resting it where he would've been able to feel it as she lay against him and sighed in relief. "It's fine, I didn't hurt it, it's fine,"

-----

"I couldn't tell you,"

Malvolio just rolled his eyes a bit, asking after a moment, "Do you want to race? I'm bored as want to go for a run."

---
Klaus smiled a bit.

Tatia just leaned against him, smiling like an idiot.

-----

"Your sister is more the athletic type than I."

Elena raised an eyebrow at him just as Charlotte's car screeched to a halt and she actually managed to drive into one of the werewolves knocing it unconscious and Damon got out, managing to fire darts at the werewolves whilst the others got into the car so the werewolves were knocked out.

"I give up with you." Malvolio grumbled after a moment or two, placing Violet down on the sofa when they got to the house before heading back out again without a word.

---
Klaus kissed her forehead.

---
Jeremy got into the car.

Tatia shifted her head to kiss him properly.

---

"I'll send your sister out after you when she wakes."

"Kay!" He called over his shoulder.

---
Klaus kissed her back deeply.

Dad said you wanted to see me, where are you? Violet text him around a half hour later.

----

Tatia moved a hand from her own waist to rest in his hair, tightening it there and pulling him closer to her.

"I'll meet you at home." Damon told them and Charlotte drove off.

In the alleyway that used to be by the Grill. I think Uncle Kol burned the Grill down, by the looks of what's left of it.

---
Klaus knotted his fingers in her hair.

----
One of the wolves amongst the group that Damon had been shooting at was Falin, her fur was a dark brown, flecked with black strands and her eyes were the typical amber wolf colour - though they had flecks of grey in them. She was stood a little back from the others, near a tree, snarling.
