Chapter Twenty-One
FRENCH QUARTER
The next day, Sabrina is wandering around in the French Quarter on the sidewalk.
{Sabrina's Outfit}
As Sabrina walks, she notices two slightly drunken men drinking bottles of whiskey.
One of them notices her and teases her. "Hello there, pretty babe."
Sabrina doesn't pay him any attention as she continues on walking. But sensing trouble forming, she pulls out her pepper mace from her blue canvas backpack pocket.
The two men slowly follows her. And Sabrina becomes annoyed. She walks in an alleyway and turns around, pepper macing the first slight drunken man in his eyes.
"Ah. I can't see?!" The slight drunken Man 1 exclaimed, covering his eyes with his hands.
And Sabrina knees the slight drunken Man 2 in his groin.
And out of nowhere, Klaus intervenes with vamp-sped, grabbing both slight drunken Man 1 and 2 and knocks them out unconscious by hitting each other's foreheads on each other's.
Klaus and Sabrina exchange looks at each other.
"Klaus?" Sabrina said to her husband.
Klaus smirks at her. "Hello, Love."
"I had it handled." Sabrina said to him.
"I know you did, and so, I thought you needed an extra hand." Klaus said.
"Were you stealthy keeping an eye on me?" Sabrina asked her husband.
Klaus gives Sabrina a 'really' look on his face. "I so happened to be out and about on the rooftops and I saw two pathetic blokes following you."
Sabrina gives her husband, Klaus, a 'really' look on her face. "I thought you weren't gonna be overprotective with me."
"You're my wife, I can't help it." Klaus said to her with a small smile. "But I'm not overprotective of you, I know you try to be tough and badass and all that."
Sabrina rolls her eyes at him and walks away from him. And Klaus chuckles.
"You're welcome by the way, Cooper Wolf." Klaus said, walking beside her.
"Thanks." Sabrina thanked him with a small smile.
"You want me to back off, just say so." Klaus said to Sabrina.
"That's the thing with you, you don't ever back off. I mean, I get it, you're my husband and it's your husband instinct to protect me and keep me safe, but sometimes you act like I can't handle myself." Sabrina said.
"I know you can handle yourself, but deep down within you, you try to prove to me how tough you are." Klaus said.
Sabrina stops walking and so does Klaus and the husband and wife faces each other.
"What are you trying to say, Klaus?" Sabrina asked.
"What I'm trying to say is that you don't have to prove anything to me, Sabrina." Klaus told his wife with a soften expression on his face. "The thing is, Elijah, Rebekah, Kol, Freya and myself have been noticing how you try to be tough, but it doesn't quite suit you. I'm not trying to lower your self-esteem, I just wanted you to know that you don't have to be how tough you are."
"I know." Sabrina said. "Maybe, I'm not the "tough girl" type.
"Of course, you are." Klaus said and smirks at her. "That's why you pepper maced the slight drunken fool and kneed the other in his groin."
Klaus and Sabrina exchange small smiles at each other.
"I'll see you at home, Mikaelson." Sabrina said, and pecks a kiss on his cheek and walks away.
Klaus small smiles to himself and walks away, going about the rest of his day.

ROUSSEAU'S
Later on that day, Sabrina is sitting at a table with a A&W cream soda with her iBook g4 laptop.
Lucien Castle sits down at the table across from her. "Hello, Sabrina. I've been dying to speak with you."
"Lucien? What do you want?" Sabrina asked him.
"Nothing much. You, however, you've intrigued me." Lucien said to her.
"Intrigued you how?" Sabrina asked him.
"I've know your husband, Nik, for a thousand years. And it amazed me how he settled down with his life. With you in his life, you're like a weight around him. You make him, sane. I've tried to tell him that his attachment to you is gonna make him look weak in the eyes of his enemies." Lucien said.
"I know what Klaus has done throughout his immortal complicated life. I know about the horror stories about him. And I also know that he's not innocent and he has blood on his hands, but it doesn't bother me, Lucien." Sabrina said to him. "So, if you've came to tell me some old wicked secret about Klaus? Just don't."
Lucien looks at Sabrina with impressive expression on his face. "Very well, then. I was just intrigued. That's all."
Lucien and Sabrina exchange mildly looks at each other.
"Klaus said that you and him were old friends." Sabrina said to him. "Have you two made amends?"
"It's a progress." Lucien said, getting up and walking away. "I'll see you around, Sabrina."

TALAMASCA CASTE FOR SUPERNATURAL STUDIES
That late afternoon, Sabrina slowly walks up to David Talbot's office door and gently knocks on it.
"David?" Sabrina said.
David looks up at Sabrina with his glasses. "Sabrina? Is there something that you need?"
"There's a lot of supernatural chronicles that the Talamasca Caste has in the archives." Sabrina said, slowly walks inside and sits down in the sofa chair in front of David's desk.
"The Talamasca Caste is infamous here in the French Quarter. From old vampires, witches, and werewolf folklores, the supernatural is very intriguing. We study and learn a little more about it each and every day. Whether it's old folklores about any supernatural species, it's interesting to know of them. I've known that Jesse is a vampire and you are Timberwolf, but I am pleased to have you both here with me." David Talbot said with a small smile.
And Sabrina small smiles back at him.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
That evening, in the courtyard, Sabrina is sitting at the table with her small drinking glass of bourbon.
"Drinking bourbon?" Klaus said, slowly walks up to her and gently sits at the head of the table. "You're more than of a cream soda gal."
Klaus and Sabrina exchange chuckles with each other.
"I don't apologize for anything. But if I am being overprotective of you, it's just how I am." Klaus said to Sabrina.
"I know." Sabrina said to him. "But I meant what I said, I can handle myself, but if I do any help, I'll let you know, or Elijah, Rebekah, Kol and Freya."
"Sabrina? I don't really care what happens to me, but I do care about what happens to you." Klaus said to her. "The Mikaelson's has blood on our hands, but as for you, your hands are clean, and I intend to keep it that way."
"I know, Klaus. But sometimes, you're gonna have to let me help you with anything. Even if it's small tasks or a big tasks, I can handle it. And if something happens, I'll be prepared because it's gonna make me stronger." Sabrina said.
Klaus small smiles at her. And he and Sabrina gently holds each other's hands on the table, revealing their wedding rings on their left hand ring fingers.
