Bound To You - K.M

(CHAPTER 7)

Rebekah thought of how Kol was happy.
She was also happy like that in New Orleans.
She had a human boyfriend.
His name was Mark, he was just a simple bartender.
He was handsome and everything a girl would dream of from a man.
She couldn't help but be jealous of Kol.
Everytime Mikael made an appearance, the Mikaleson's would lose everything.
Now Kol had only spent two weeks with this girl and he was already getting a happy ever after.
Why couldn't she have it?
She was the one who suffered Klaus wrath whenever he was angry,
Why would Kol get everything right?
Who was this girl?
she asked herself questions that needed answers.

Sighing she continued to clean Niklaus's Study room.
There was nothing to and she was tired of crying her problems away.
As she dusted the old books, a particular one caught her eye.
It had a chestnut hard cover.
Something about the book drew her in.
She took steps to go and glance at the book.
She stepped lightly on the floorboards.
She didn't want Klaus to hear her.
His books were always out of reach for anyone.

Taking the book carefully, she glanced at the door, making sure Klaus wasn't watching her back.
Pushing strands of her blonde hair behind her ear, she read the heading.

'The Mystery in women'

Reading the heading, Rebekah frowned.
Why would Klaus the feared of the Originals bother himself with such a book?
Did he want to outsmart Rebekah?
But the book seemed to be a romance novel
Carefully, she opened the book.
The book didn't have any of her interest anymore.
Deciding to return the book back on the shelf, a piece of paper fell from the book.
Surprised, Rebekah placed the old book on the table, bending to pick up the fallen piece of paper.

'To my dearest,
I have hope that one day we will meet,
It may seem difficult because the world is big, but it's not impossible,'

The piece of paper read on one side.
Turning the paper, she she saw a picture of a girl smiling.
The girl had blonde hair and green orbs.
The looked very beautiful on the drawing.
Her smile would easily ease someone's thoughts.
Then she thought of how Kol told ber about Claire, the way her smile eased him.
This drawing pictured exactly how Claire looks.
But why would Niklaus have a drawing of Claire?
But was it Claire?

"So tell your little sister about this girl?" Rebekah asked Kol, sitting on his bed.

"There is nothing to tell dear sister," he said grinning.

"Oh come on, I'm the only one who you can talk to about her, first of all, I'm the only girl, second who are you going to talk to the brooding Elijah who is always engrossed in his books, or the heartless original who we call brother.
It's actually your choice," she said folding her hands across her chest.

"Fine, what do you want to know? "he asked sitting on the bed facing her.

"What's she like?" she asked.

"She is pretty, she has green eyes and blonde hair, her hair color resembles yours a little bit," he said running his fingers along her little sister's blonde hair.

"When I look at her eyes, I remember  summer when I was human, her light pinkish skin and blue untertone.
Her eyes aren't as blue as yours but they are green, bottle green to be precise." he said looking through air.

"You really are inlove with her aren't you," the blonde Mikaleson came into realization.
Sighing the Mikaleson boy got up from bed and started pacing around the room, running fingers through his soft hair.

"I don't even know, but she's making me feel things I have never felt, even when I was human," he said.

"It's called love brother, accept it," she sighed standing up.

"You love her so much." she said grabbing him by the shoulders.

Exactly as how Kol described this 'Claire' was as how the picture was drawn.
From her light pinkish skin and blue undertone.
But what if Kol drew her?
That would have been a reasonable explanation if Kol knew how to draw.
The only artist in their family was Niklaus.

Fuming with rage, she choose to hear what Niklaus had to say.
Using her unnatural speed, she barged inside Niklaus' room.
She found him getting up from the bed,shirtless.

"Would you mind explaining this?" she asked holding out the drawing of Claire.
Shock ran across his, and Rebekah saw it.

***
Klaus took the last sip of his scorch.
One blonde ran through her mind.
She didn't know who she was or where she was but he was determined to meet her.
Picking up him pencil he flipped through his sketch pad.
They were all filled with drawings of her.
When she was confused,
When she smiled with herself sardonically because she thought she was crazy.
Just thinking about her made his lips twitch.
Her scent was alluring,
The eerie thing that he couldn't decipher was that he always smelled her scent.
After scratching his brain for possible explanation, he settled on one: his brain was playing tricks on him.

Sighing, he removed his shirt, leaving his perfectly toned chest.
He looked over the window, hearing far away howls.
He really wished his cursed mother didn't lock his wolf side.
No one would ever try to hurt him.
He would be the most powerful creature to walk on earth.

Pushing those thoughts away he rested his back on the bed.
His thoughts just calmed themselves by just thinking about her.
His thoughts were interrupted by someone barging inside his room.
Interrupting his calm thoughts.
He quickly got up and looked at the Mikaleson girl who barged inside his room.

"Would you mind explaining this?" the other blonde asked holding a drawing of her.
Shock spread all over his face.
