THE TWO STAYED UP TALKING FOR HOURS. Eventually, Killian left to return to the bayou for the rest of the night but they made plans to get lunch together the next day.

When Marjorie's eyes fluttered open she immediately recoiled when she saw her dad sitting in the chair next to her bed with a sketch pad in his lap.

"What the heck?" Marjorie furrowed her brows

"Good morning, little Pearl." Klaus greeted nonchalantly, not bothering to look up from his sketch

"Uh, hi." Marjorie pushed herself up into a sitting position before looking over at her dad. "Did you need something?"

"I'm about to tell you something, and you're probably going to be angry. So, I was hoping this sketch might be able to help soften the blow." Klaus sat his pencil down before handing the sketch book over

Marjorie hesitantly took it before looking down at the paper, she smiled softly. Klaus had sketched Marjorie and Killian dancing together last night. She knew Klaus was an artist and a good one at that, but she was blown away by how he was able to capture emotions in his art.

Looking at the sketch Marjorie could feel the comfort and happiness radiating from the two, as if she wasn't the girl who was drawn in the picture. Like she was just a stranger admiring the art in front of her.

"It's beautiful dad, I love it. Thank you." Marjorie smiled and Klaus nodded, happy that she liked it

"I'm glad. Killian seems to make you happy." Klaus recalled the large smile that graced his daughters face the whole time she was with the boy in question

He hadn't seen her smile like that since everything went down with the witches and Rebekah leaving a month ago. Even though he wasn't too thrilled that a boy was the one to lift her spirits, he couldn't ignore the uplift of her mood. So, he would try his best to not be too overbearing or overprotective where Killian was concerned.

"Yeah he does. It's all pretty new obviously, but our uh, soulmate connection thing helps." Marjorie nodded with a soft smile

"I still can't believe it. My baby girl has a soulmate." Klaus shook his head with a light chuckle

"You never know dad, you might have one out there too. Just because soulmates have only ever been heard of from my birth mom's pack doesn't mean that it isn't a possibility for others." Marjorie grinned
