"Niklaus?" Y/n questioned the hybrid, as he stood in what she could only place as shock.
"Nik? Did you hear what I just said?" Y/n's hand gently grasped Nik's arm.
"Yes..." He responded very quietly, his gaze on the floor.
All eyes had been on Niklaus as everyone had been waiting for his reaction.
"Well, what do you think?" Y/n asked him as a laugh escaped her lips, revealing her nervousness.
Klaus finally looked up, his eyes meeting Y/n's as his eyebrows began to pull together.
"How is this possible? I'm a vampire, vampires cannot reproduce!" He exclaimed.
"You're a hybrid, Niklaus, that's how. Your werewolf gene allowed this, this miracle, to happen." Elijah had responded as Y/n was taken back by Klaus's outburst.
"Are you positive?" He questioned.
"Listen." Rebekah interrupted.
They remained silent, the vampires now being able to pick up the sound of not one but two heartbeats coming from Y/n, one being very faint.
Niklaus let out a small unheard gasp, as a tear began forming in his eye however he quickly blinked it away.
"This is great, isn't it? You're gonna be a father Nik!" Rebekah said, a smile playing on everyone's face except for one hybrid.
Y/n's hands clasped Nik's as she murmured his name.
He ripped his hands away from hers, "This is anything but great, Y/n! This is terrible! It's a nightmare, how could this possibly be?" He muttered.
"W-what?" Y/n sputtered in confusion.
"I thought you'd be happy to be a father, Niklaus..."
"How could you ever come to such a repulsive conclusion!?"
"That's enough, Niklaus." Elijah interrupted Niklaus through gritted teeth, knowing he was going to continue to say things that he knew he truly didn't mean.
