Reunion

• • •

four years later.

Rina and Malik Mikaelson turned 20 years old today.

Halloween had always been the Mikaelson's favorite time of year, not only because of the twin's birthday but because this allowed them to host a Halloween Ball/Bash where all supernatural beings practically showed up for a fun night.

Rina and Malik had settled into their life in NYC, by 18 the two had graduated with a master's degree. Rina and Nathan had become official when she was 19 and he was 21, with her now turning 20, he was now 22. Malik and Iris were still together, much to everyone's surprise since they didn't think that Malik would actually find someone to deal with his mood swings, kidding, though they did often tease the boy.

With the twins turning 20, this meant they were one year closer to becoming tribrid's a talk that they had with their significant other's. Iris wasn't sure about being immortal, but Malik told her that she had time to think about it and their relationship because while he loved her, he didn't want to watch her grow old and die when he knew that he could never join her. Rina and Nathan had discussed it, Nathan was okay with being immortal, but it was a talk that he wanted to have with Oliver since Oliver was his family and wanted the boy to be in the know.

Rina and Malik were coming home, they had their bags with them as they pulled up to their childhood home together. Nathan was in the backseat, practically shaking as he was going to meet their parents for the first time.

"Nathan, your teeth are practically chattering." Malik teased the boy with a chuckle. "Calm down."

"I'm meeting Matthias Mikaelson, hell I'm even meeting Niklaus Mikaelson!" Nathan reminded them. "They're legends and oh my god, Matthias is going to kill me."

Rina couldn't help but laugh as she turned in her seat to look at him. "Nate, baby, breathe, my family will love you."

Nathan nodded and they all climbed out, leaving their bags except one that had gifts inside. They hadn't even reached the porch when the door was swung open and out came two children, loud screams of happiness leaving their lips.

Cameron Marshall O'Connell looked far to similar to his father Declan, the boy had his father's bright blue eyes and his light brown hair. The six-year-old boy shouted with glee at the sight of his cousins.

"Rina! Malik!" He shouted while leaping for Rina.

Emerson Mikaelson was the spitting image of their mother, Rhea Mikaelson. While his hair was curly like Malik's, it was black, but he had his mother's smile along with her dimples. Emerson was now four and he was a complete momma's boy.

"Mal! Rin Rin!" The four-year-old shouted as he jumped for Malik and the boy caught him.

"Oh, look at you!" Rina giggled as she set Cameron down. "You've gotten so big!"

"Well, I did turn six last month." Cameron said proudly making Rina smile and nod.

"Mal, Mal, mommy said that you're staying with us now!" Emerson said with his big brown eyes that had everyone wrapped around his finger.

Malik nodded his head. "Uncle Vincent offered me a job and I told him I'd take it."

Emerson couldn't help but cheer. "Yes! That means I can show you my room, I can show you my cool things and-"

Malik smiled as he listened to Emerson ramble as he carried the boy inside with Rina, Nathan, and Cameron following. Nathan was still nervous but meeting the kids first, or well in directly meeting them, definitely helped calmed him down.
