Being Klaus’s first hybrid and being in love with him would include...
it’s been months since you realized you loved Klaus Mikaelson
nobody had yet to figure it out and you were hellbent on it staying that way
you constantly found yourself thrown between him and your friends and it was starting to increasingly hard to keep him safe from their ridiculous plots while not letting your secret slip
you were terrified that Elijah suspected
for the past week you’ve been by Klaus’s side non-stop and though you worried he was starting to get annoyed with you following him around like a lot puppy, he had yet to do or say anything about it
every morning you got a text with a time and place that usually led you to tag along with him while he took care of one task or another
you helped where you could but him being the hybrid and you being just a wolf, he usually took care of things a little faster, cleaner, and more efficiently
not to mention his reputation proceeded him and that took care of a lot of things rather quickly
Klaus was always hyper-aware of your need to check in with your friends and their insistence to interfere with his plans
he started spending more and more time with you outside of task running to spite them
it all came to a massive and truly spectacular end when Damon Salvatore tried to kill him, unsuccessfully, while you were having lunch together and talking about which city in the world would be best suited to turn into a hybrid hotspot
you knew it was stupid, you really did, but in a rage over his stupidity as you watched Klaus temporarily desiccate, you bit Damon
things got worse before they got better
Stefan came at you to avenge Damon
Elena was screaming incoherently as you defended yourself and in the process snapped Stefan’s neck
Bonnie hit you with a spell so forceful that you went through the wall into the back supply closet of the Mystic Grill
Caroline carried a temporarily dead Stefan away as Damon ran after them with Elena in his arms and Bonnie walked calmly out the door as Klaus still lay dead over the table and you lay bleeding to death by some rustic potatoes before the world disappeared
the taste of blood brought you to and you opened your eyes to Klaus kneeling before you with his bleeding wrist to your mouth
apparently, Bonnie’s magic packed a real anti-wolf-healing punch
the blood was too late and as the wound healed and Klaus smiled down at you, you took your last breath
the next time you came to you were laying on a bed in a very plain looking room with minimal furniture
“Sorry about the lack of decor but the house has not been finished yet,” Elijah’s voice came from a chair by the window as he didn’t look up from the book he was reading
Elijah informs you that the Mystic Grill will be closed for the foreseeable future due to his brother’s response to your death
apparently, he thought his blood hadn’t worked
the living room isn’t really in any better shape
apparently, it’s been four days and they were all beginning to think you weren’t coming back and Klaus has gone into several... intense... mourning periods
he is currently seeking revenge and plans on murdering The Witch (Bonnie) and Damon Salvatore
Elijah suggests you make a call and the look on his face is obvious as to who that first call should be to
Klaus is home before you even hang up with Elena to let her know she can tell her friends (which they are no longer to you) that they should really check if the person they tried to kill is actually dead before walking off
Elijah disappears from the room and Klaus is suddenly sitting by your bed with a glass in hand with a very dark red and thick looking liquid
you’re highly aware it isn’t a request but there is a part of you that wonders if you want this
you’d be the first hybrid he made and on one hand, he would have completed something he’s wanted to do (make more of him) and he wouldn’t be alone in that regard but on the other, you weren’t sure if there was a point to living forever
especially when Klaus’s need to hang around Mystic Falls ends and your company’s whatever it is that it gives him (amusement? simply not being alone?) runs its course and he leaves
you’re genuinely surprised by the plea in his eyes and figure maybe, just maybe, you are friends after all
and friends don’t want friends to die usually, right? (ex-friends excluded)
you agree but before you take a sip you joke that you’re doing it for the furniture’s sake as Elijah told you how he handled your death
“I’ve already lost enough people I love”
he says it so easily that for a second you think you imagined it
Klaus tips the glass into your mouth and as the blood slides down your throat, you’re sort of in this weird locked-gaze state where you’re not sure what he’s trying to convey and he’s not sure what you’ve understood
with your transition complete, Klaus grins and calls you “his little hybrid”
you’re pretty sure you’re not going to manage to live forever without telling him the truth and you might as well do it now because you don’t want to carry this around on your chest for centuries
“I should probably let you know that I love you”
it’s not as tactful or romantic as it has been put in your dreams but the clumsy admission at least got out of your mouth before you chickened out
Klaus wipes a drop of blood from the corner of your mouth and leans in
“I should probably do the same”
Elijah is downstairs having a celebratory drink because he’s been waiting for you two to tell each other that for months
