The Two You's | Kai Parker

Chapter 34

My body exhausted, emotions all over the place and face still stained from tears I crept into Kai's apartment.

As soon as the door opened with its usual squeak Kai emerged from the bedroom. Eagerly pacing towards me.

"Hey, you're back. How was the drive?" He asked, on his way over to give me a hug.

He held me tight to his chest as I replied, his masculine arms encircling me.

"It was fine." I said quietly, resting my head on his shoulder.

Immediately noticing my unconvincing tone, he leaned back, holding my face in his hands, I saw his eyes scan over my face, clearly now realising I had been crying.

"Mads what's wrong?" He asked timidly.

I didn't know what to say though. And I felt like I couldn't speak, all I could focus on was trying not to have a complete mental break down.

Despite my efforts I felt a few tears well in the bottom of my eyes, I was fighting my hardest not to let them fall.

I could see the panic in Kai's eyes as he tried to decipher what he as wrong with me and tried to figure out how he could help.

"Is it Klaus? What did he do to you? I will kill him Maddie." Kai said, his tone becoming more sinister.

I shook my head, it was about all I could manage. My throat still felt like it was closing in on itself.

"Was it Rebekah? Was she there?"

I felt some words rising up from my throat, they'd topple out any minute now.

"It's Kol. He's not dead." I finally got out.

Kai took a small step backwards from me, his hands falling from my face and to his side.

"What?" His shock evident in his tone.

That made two of us.

"He was dead but his mother brought him back. He never thought to let me know." I explained.

Well, sort of explained, how could anyone ever really explain what I had just told him?

"What you spoke to him?" Kai sounded even more confused now.

"Yeah we spoke. That's what Klaus wanted to show me." I replied.

Kai paused for a moment, as if he was contemplating his next words.

"What did you talk about?" His questions were becoming more interrogating with every one he asked.

I furrowed my eyebrows in suspicion, squinting my eyes at him. Wondering why he sounded like he was accusing me rather than comforting me.

"Nothing we just -"

Kai cut in half way through my sentence.

"Nothing? What you saw you're boyfriend rise back from the dead and you spoke about nothing?" Kai spat skeptically.

I could hardly believe the way which he was acting. The last thing I needed right now was this.

The whole time I thought I just needed Kai to tell me it was all okay, now I found myself wishing I could just be alone.

I stared right through his cold blue eyes, my lips parted in shock at his complete over reaction. He was acting as if he didn't trust me.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" I exclaimed.

If there was one person I thought was going to comfort me it was Kai. Turns out all he did was make me feel even worse than before.

"What's wrong with me is you won't tell me what the fuck you were talking to Kol about." He snarled.

I scoffed at him disrespectfully, looking at him with complete disappointment.

"If you let me finish my fucking sentence I would have."

I paused for a moment as Kai shook his head in frustration. His jaw clenched tightly.

"He told me how he came back, I asked why he didn't tell me before, he said he thought I wanted nothing to do with him. Then I said I mourned him after he died, and he suggested giving us another shot." I explained reluctantly.

I figured being honest was best. No matter what the reaction was from Kai, I couldn't build a relationship on lies.

Kai snickered before staring right through me, finally closing the gap between us he spoke close to my face. His presence was imposing as he towered over me.

"So you're boyfriend rises from the grave to ask for one more shot with you and you call that nothing?" His voice was cruel, dismissive.

As soon as his poisonous words fell from his mouth I shoved him away from me. Creating as much space between us as possible.

I bit my lip and looked up at the ceiling whilst softly shaking my head, trying to prevent any frustrated tears from falling. I couldn't believe what an ass he was being.

"First of all he's not fucking my boyfriend, you are. And I told him no because I'm in love with you!" I snapped.

Kai went quiet. Although he didn't speak he looked at me intensely from the other side of the room. His eyes studying mine.

His eyes flicked from my eyes, to the floor and back to mine. And then in a sudden burst he stormed across to me, grabbing my face and kissing me hard.

He had me pinned against the wall as he harshly kissed my lips. His hand slipping down from my face to my neck and encircling it with a firm hold, his cool metal rings pressing into my skin.

I let out a soft moan into his lips and as soon as I did he picked me up in one strong motion, my legs wrapping around his waist.

He carried me across the room and threw me carelessly on the bed.

Then he was over me, not letting the intensity of the moment die down he continued to roughly kiss me.

Our clothes quickly fell to the floor in a frustrated heat.

~~~

Kai held me in his arms. Our faces mere inches apart as he held eye contact with me.

"I'm sorry Maddie. I shouldn't have got so jealous." He said softly, his hand on my waist.

"It's okay, I understand." I whispered.

"It's not okay. You needed me and I let my own emotions get in the way of me supporting you. And I'll be better in the future, okay?" He reassured.

I nodded with a small smile before pushing my face forward a couple inches and giving him a small kiss to confirm everything between us was good.

"Do you wanna talk about it? About him?" He asked.

I shook my head.

"I just want you to hold me." I spoke quietly.

Kai accepted me into his arms, wrapping me in his embrace. He softly kissed my head as I rested it on his chest.

And finally after nearly 48 hours I drifted off into sleep.
