《Rosa Perri Gilbert》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Currently I am in the park reading a book, my favorite actually, The Outsiders. I was sitting cross legged on one of the benches. I had finally gotten away from the 'Scooby Gang,' that's what Damon calls them.
I was so into my book that I didn't realize someone sat next to me until a voice spoke up.
"So you must be the youngest Gilbert my brother has been talking about," a British voice said startling me, "Sorry love, didn't mean to scare you," the man chuckled. He looked over at him, he had short, curly, blond hair, and light blue eyes.
"Let me guess you're one of Kol's brothers?" I asked reluctantly closing my book.
"Smart girl," he said smiling, showing the most adorable dimples ever, "I'm Niklaus."
Niklaus? Wait, Klaus? Well... shit.
"So you're Klaus?" I asked, a little nervous, I mean from what everyone told me, he's the most dangerous original.
"No need to be nervous, love, I won't harm you," he said the last bit with sincerity in his voice. I looked at him again, studying him. He was very handsome, like Kol, maybe it's a family thing? He looked to be very tall, again, like Kol. But then again everyone is tall to me, I'm more on the shorter side of humanity. I also noticed he had a sort of superiority to him.
"So Perri, why are you all alone? It's very dangerous," Klaus said.
"You know thats what the serial killer says right before he kidnaps you," I said partly joking.
Klaus chuckled, "Love, if I wanted to kidnap you, we wouldn't be sitting here having a conversation."
"Hm I guess so," I said still not entirely sure about him. I know what Elena told me about the Mikaelson's but I don't like judging people before I get to know them. And Elena has been known to blow things out of proportion and be over dramatic.

"I have a question," he said. I nodded my head for him to continue, "From what Kol told me you have just arrived back in Mystic Falls. Back From where?"
" Oh, uh, I go to the National Academy of Dance, in Australia," I stated proudly.
"Well congratulations, from my intelligence it is a hard school to get into," Klaus said smiling at me, "You're not like your siblings are you?" He said out of nowhere.
I looked down, "Yeah, I'm kinda like the oddball in the family."
"No, you're the special one," Klaus said. I looked over at him find he was already staring at me, "People underestimate and take you for granted, when they shouldn't." Despite everything that he's done, well from what I was told he's done, Klaus seems like a nice guy.
"Are you saying that about me, or are you speaking from experience?" I asked softly, not breaking eye contact.
He gave me a small smile, "A little of both I suppose."
"You're a lot different than I thought you'd be," I said furrowing my eyebrows.
"How so?" he asked intrigued.
"Well from what everyone has told me, I pictured a huge ugly monster," I laughed, "I dunno, I just wasn't expecting...this," I gestured to him.
"Should I take that as a compliment?" he asked raising his eyebrows, and chuckling.
I shrugged my shoulders, "Up to you," I laughed.
"Well Miss Gilbert, I have to be on my way but I would like to invite you to my family's house tomorrow," Klaus said, standing up from the bench.
"Hmmm, a human in a house full of original vampires, an original witch and the original hybrid? Eh, why not? How many people can say they've done that?" I smiled accepting his offer. A huge smile broke out onto his face.

"Wonderful! I've already put my number in your phone and I have yours. So I will pick you up around 11?" Klaus said while cheekily handing me my phone.
"Sure, I'll see you tomorrow than Klaus," I said laughing softly.
"Goodbye Perri," he said kissing my hand, "Oh and call me Nik."
"Whatever you say, Nik, I'll see you soon," I said, without another word he vamp sped away.
Whelp I guess I'll slowly make my way back home. Maybe I can finish my book without any more interruptions.
