The next morning, Lana and Sabrina are sitting at the bar counter with their bowls of gumbo.
{Sabrina's Outfit}
"This gumbo's good. The sausage, the red beans, and the brown rice." Lana said, eating a small spoonful of the gumbo.
"Yeah. I know." Sabrina said. "Did Klaus tell you that I was out with Derek and Cora?"
"Yeah, he did. He had to call me down first." Lana said. "But you scared the hell out of me. Please, don't worry me like that again."
"I'm sorry, Mom." Sabrina apologized.
"It's okay, sweetheart." Lana said. "And about Derek and Cora HaLe. Klaus told me that their mischievous brother and sister and you've been spending some time with them."
"Mom, I can handle Derek and Cora, and their werewolves." Sabrina said.
"Okay, I don't want Derek and Cora changing you. You're a good person, Sabrina." Lana said.
"But even a good person can be a little mischievous." Sabrina said to her Mom, with a sly grin.
Which Lana notices and becomes worried.

Cora and Sabrina slowly walks inside the main room and sits down on the curved sofa.
"Are you okay?" Derek asked Sabrina.
"Yeah. I'm fine." Sabrina said.
"You're not a good lair, Sabrina." Cora said, taking a swig of her bottle of bourbon and hands it to Sabrina. "Take a swig. Unless you don't drink bourbon."
A few of the werewolves chuckles softly to themselves.
Sabrina gently takes the half empty bottle of bourbon and takes a swig of it.
"You were right, Derek. Sabrina's strong and tough." Cora said to her older big brother.
"Told you." Derek said. "So, Sabrina? The Talamasca Caste?"
"Yeah. I've been at the Talamasca Caste for a long while." Sabrina said.
"I'm having a party this evening if you're interested." Cora said.
"She'll not be interested." Klaus said.
Sabrina looks at her husband, Klaus. "Klaus? What are you doing here?"
"I'm taking you home." Klaus said, walking up to her. "We're leaving."
"You can't make her leave, Klaus." Cora said.
"Mind your tongue, Cora. Or I'll rip it out of your mouth." Klaus threatened Cora.
Annoyed, Cora gets up to her feet, but Derek puts a reassuring hand on his little sister's shoulder.
"It's not worth it." Derek said.
Klaus gently takes Sabrina's hand, and starts to walk away. "We're leaving, Sabrina."
And Sabrina gently pulls her hand away from Klaus's. "I don't want to leave."
Klaus looks at Sabrina. "Are you really gonna argue with me on this again?"
"If I have to, yes." Sabrina said with a serious look in her eyes. "So, why don't you back off?"
Which Klaus notices and becomes worried. "Sabrina? Derek and Cora are changing you. This isn't you."
"Sure it is. You're not just used to me behaving like this." Sabrina said, and becomes. "You know what, you wanna leave? Let's leave."
Klaus looks at Sabrina, becoming even more worried. And she walks away from him.

"Derek and Cora were here." Klaus said.
"Yeah, they're leaving New Orleans." Sabrina said.
"That's a tad bit sad, I was just starting to enjoy their company." Klaus said with a smirk.
"Derek also gave me his phone number." Sabrina said to him. "I just wanted you to know."
"You know, ever since, you've met Derek and Cora, and his mischievous rebellious werewolves, you're slowly changing." Klaus said.
"Klaus, I'm fine. I'm okay." Sabrina said.
"I don't want to lose you." Klaus said to her, worriedly.

That evening, after the graduation party, Sabrina slowly walks inside the study and sees Cora crouched down on the desk.
"Cora? I thought you and Derek had left?" Sabrina said.
"Derek and I did. But I took a U turn." Cora said, gently leaping off the desk. "You know, I can tell that you're a good girl. And you don't do bad things."
"What do you want?" Sabrina asked.
"You don't know what my older big brother, Derek, is capable of. Sure, he's handsome, but he's also mischievous and rebellious." Cora said, making her eyes glow golden, with the light from outside glimmering on the side of her face. And slowly walks up to Sabrina. "Derek sees something within you, Sabrina. And he will challenge you. He's picked up on you, you're pure-hearted with a goody-two-shoes behavior. And by the way, Derek sent me to keep an eye on you, so, you're gonna be seeing me around the French Quarter. I'll see you around, Cooper." and Cora wolfs-speeds away.
And Sabrina rolls her eyes, a bit annoyed.

"Klaus?" Sabrina said.
"You don't have to worry about Nora anymore, she's deceased." Klaus said.
"Oh." Sabrina said, glumly, gently fiddling with her red graduation cap in her hands. "Klaus?"
"I'm not upset that you've been spending time with Derek and Cora and hanging out with them." Klaus said, slowly getting up to his feet and slowly walks up to her. "But I am worried that the more you spend time with Derek and Cora, your behavior will change."
"You always say that you don't want to lose me, but I don't want to lose you too." Sabrina said.
"I know, and you won't." Klaus said, and gently cups Sabrina's face with his hand. "Mrs. Sabrina Cooper-Mikaelson. I would lose my mind if something were to happen to you. You're the person that taught me how to unconditionally love and be happy."
Klaus and Sabrina exchange small smiles at each other and he plants a kiss on her cheek and slowly walks away from her.

"You look like a man with vengeance on the brain." A woman said, sitting at the bar counter beside him.
Eric looks at Charlotte Petrova. "Who the hell are you?"
"My name's Charlotte Petrova. And I know the person that Klaus loves more than anyone." Charlotte Petrova said.
"Sabrina Cooper." Eric replied, taking a swig of his bourbon. "I'm gonna destroy her."
"How about poisoning her against Klaus instead?" Charlotte Petrova suggested.
"It's no use. I'm certain that Klaus has told his precious wife, Sabrina, everything about him." Eric said, annoyed.
"Not really everything, Eric." Charlotte said to him.
Eric looks at Charlotte Petrova and grins, having become interested.
And Charlotte smirks.
