New Orleans

Stefanie's POV

Elijah and Klaus came to my house. They talked to my parents about New Orleans and that we'll come by Monday home. My parents seemed really happy with Elijah and me, but Klaus...it was obvious that they didn't like him very much. But they couldn't do anything about it.

-Ok, so...I'll promise you we'll protect Stefanie, even though I don't think any harm will come to her. Our family will love her. - Klaus said, looking at me and to my father.

- I'm sure you will.- my father said, looking at Klaus and Elijah with a smile in his lips.

- Now...excuse us Damon and Elena, we will leave for New Orleans.- Elijah said.

- Of course! - my mother said, walking us to the door.

- So...have fun, and behave!- my father said looking at me and Elijah, smirking.

- Goodbye dad, bye mom!- I said.

- Bye Stefanie!- my mother said.

- Bye, bye Stef!-my father said.

- Goodbye Damon. Good bye Elena!- Elijah said.

- Goodbye!- Klaus said to my parents.

Klaus was driving, me and Elijah were in the back seats.

We were holding hands, and staring at each-other. His eyes were...dark brown but they had so much light in them...it was like the shiny stars in a night full of darkness... like the warmth of the sun after a long, dreamless and dark night...and like that...the hour was 1 am...I fell asleep in his arms.

When I woke up, we were near New Orleans. The first thing I saw was Elijah's smiley face.

- Rise and shine sleepy-head! - Klaus said, smirking from the front seat.

- How much time have I been sleeping? - I said, getting of Elijah's comfortable shoulder.

- Um... about 5 hours, now it's 6 am. Sleep well?- Elijah said, looking at me.

- How is it possible to not sleep well in your arms Elijah?- I said smiling and looking at him in the eyes.

He laughed and continued to look at me.

- I entertained watching you sleep.- Elijah said, smirking.

- Haha. - I laughed and hugged him. He hugged me back.

We stayed in the car for like 6-10 minutes and then Klaus said, driving the car a bit further:

- Dear brother and Stefanie, welcome, to the French Quarter!

- Wow!- I said. - It's beautiful!

- I know. Me and Marcel created it after all.

- Oh really?! Wow!- I said, very surprised, even though I didn't know this guy "Marcel".

- Marcel is our sister's fiancé and Niklaus's best friend.- Elijah explained.

-Ah!

- Ok, so here we are. Now we can get out and get in our house. - Klaus said, standing before a big, beautiful door.

I got out of the car and tried to get my suitcase from the car luggage.

- No, no, I can get it for you. You have a thousand year old and a strong vampire here!- Elijah said, whispering.

- Um...okay Elijah but I'm not fragile.- I said.- I can get my own suitcase!

- I know you can. - he said, walking towards the door.- I just wanna help you out.

- Yeah, I understand Elijah.- I said, with my hand holding his'.

When Elijah opened the beatiful, big door, I saw...a beatiful yard, but not with grass. It was a big fountain in the middle. A table with some chairs around. And there was a big building, sorrounding it.

- What a beautiful house you have!- I said to Elijah and Klaus. Then, out of nowhere, a child came near us.

- Dad, uncle Elijah!- the girl said, hugging Klaus.

- Hope! Oh, Hope! I missed you sweetheart!- Klaus said, and I assumed that she was Klaus's daughter.

- Uncle Elijah! Hey! How are you?- Hope said, hugging Elijah too.

- Hey Hope! I'm fine sweetie. And you?

- Wonderful! I heard that you will come, so I took an off- weekend. Oh..and you must be...

- Stefanie Salvatore.- I said looking to Hope and gave her a handshake.- It's very nice to meet you!

- Me too. Hope Mikaelson!- she said and shook my hand.

She was a sweet and a beautiful child, full of joy. She was 11 years old. Elijah told me so.

- Brothers! My dear brothers, finally home!- A beatiful girl said.

Her name was Rebekah, and she seemed lovely too. After she greeted and hugged her brothers, some other persons came to the "yard". I assumed they were Elijah's family.

After Elijah and Klaus greeted them, Elijah said.

- Everybody, this is Stefanie Salvatore.- he said, with his hand around my waist. I was blushing. All the eyes were on me.

- And she is my girlfriend.- he said looking at me and to his family- and please, everyone be nice to her, and wish her a warm welcome!

I was blushing, and smiling at the same time. Now everyone was coming towards to greet me.

Kol, Davina, Freya, Keelin, Niklaus junior, Rebekah and Marcel came and gave me handshakes.

They all seemed very nice and lovely people. Hope and Niklaus were playing voleyball there. I was so happy with Elijah's family.

- Now, Stefanie, we eat every morning together, and you as a part of the family now, will eat with us!- Rebekah said, and she seemed happy about it.

- I would love to!- I said smiling at her and at everyone. I was honored that she cosidered me like a part of the family.

- Now, I will show Stefanie her room, for these days.- Freya said, comming towards me.

- Oh, okay.- I said, getting upstairs with her.

- Elijah, you can bring her suitcase upstairs, okay?- Freya asked.

- Yes, sure. Elijah said, getting upstairs too.

- This is your room, dear Stefanie!- Freya said, showing me the room.

It was a big room, with everything in it. Elijah brought the suitcase in it.

- Now you can take a shower, you must be very tired, and come downstairs, we are making breakfast!- Freya said. Then she left me alone with Elijah in the room.

- Your family is very nice and lovely.- I said to Elijah.

- Yeah, I know.- he said and his lips puckered to mine. It felt so warm, and pure and delicate...

- Um...I will let you take a shower then, and see you downstairs.- Elijah said, with his hand on my waist.

- Okay.

When he left, I took my clothes from the suitcase and went to the bathroom to take a shower. I was so happy. I was going to spend the weekend with Elijah and his beautiful and lovely family. Everything was just fine.
