That same evening...

Christy regains her conscious and finds herself tied up to a chair. She glances at a fireplace. But her eyesight is a bit blurry.

"I apologize for your eyesight." says Genevieve. "I gave you a magical dose."

"Where the fuck am I?" Christy asks Genevieve.

"You're still in the French Quarter. You're an a abandoned home." Genevieve says.

"Genevieve, let me out of here, or so help me, I will magically make your head explode." Christy says, threatening Genevieve.

"How threatening of you." Genevieve says to Christy. "You really think that Klaus loves you? He's using you, Christy. And once he's done with you, you're nothing to him, but a loose end."

Christy rolls her eyes, annoyed. "Genevieve, why can't you let bygones be bygones? You were sleeping with Klaus and you betrayed him, and for what? A grimoire?"

"Do you really think that Klaus cares about you, Christy? He does not." Genevieve says.

"Says the witch bitch who spread her legs for him, am I correct, Niklaus?" Christy says.

Klaus slowly walks inside the abandoned home. He and Genevieve exchange intense looks at each other.

"How did you find me, Nik?" Genevieve asks him.

"Courtesy of Sophie Devereaux's locator spell." Klaus says, and glances at Christy. "You okay?"

"I'm good." Christy says.

"How sweet." Genevieve says. "Yet, pathetic."

Genevieve magically thrusts her hand at Klaus, inflicting aneurysm. Klaus falls on the floor, gently holding his head with her hand.

Christy looks at Genevieve, and makes her eyes glow blue, magically untying herself from the chair. And lunges at Genevieve.

Christy and Genevieve falls on the floor, causing Genevieve's aneurysm on Klaus.

With a little bit of her strength, Christy punches Genevieve in her face. Klaus slowly gets up to his feet.

Klaus vamp-speeds them both out of the abandoned house.

CHRISTY'S APARTMENT

That night, in the kitchen, Christy is wearing a camisole silk nightgown.

Klaus slowly walks up behind Christy and gently wraps his arms around her waist. "Are you okay?"

"I'll be fine. Nothing I can't handle." Christy says, and she slowly turns around to look at him. "You should be with Elijah."

"I wanna be here with you." Klaus says. "And speaking of Elijah, he knows about our budding relationship."

"I'm sure he's happy for you." Christy says to him.

Klaus gently caress her cheek with his hand. "I don't deserve you, Christiana. I don't deserve your compassionate."

"I know, but Genevieve is a bitch." Christy says.

Klaus snickers. And Christy does as well. Christy's phone buzzes on the coffee table.

Klaus walks away from Christy and walks over to the coffee table and picks up her phone.

Looking at Thierry's text message, an slight urge of annoyance consumes within Klaus.

"Klaus?" Christy says, and slowly walks up to him. "What is it?"

"What's with you and Thierry?" Klaus asks, turning around to look at her.

"What are you talking about?" Christy asks Klaus.

"What's with you and Thierry?" Klaus asks Christy.

"Thierry and I are buddies." Christy says to Klaus.

"'I'll see you around, Christy. Goodnight' with a kiss on a cheek emoji. Sure, you and Thierry are buddies." says Klaus.

"Why are you getting so worked up about a text message?" Christy asks Klaus.

Klaus walks out of her apartment, closing the door behind him.

Christy becomes bewildered and sits down on the three seat sofa.

Now, in her bedroom, Christy phone-called Klaus's phone, but all she received was his voicemail.

"Damnit." says Christy, and sets down her phone on her nightstand, and lays down on her bed.

ROUSSEAU'S

{Christy's Outfit}

The next morning, Christy is sitting at the bar counter with Sophie.

"You did a locator spell to locate me? How sweet of you, Soph?" Christy says.

Sophie smiles a little. "You're welcome, Christy. And what's with you and Klaus?"

"What are you talking about?" Christy asks Sophie.

"Klaus seemed to have a soft spot for you when I told him and Elijah that you were taken by Sabine's and Genevieve's mischievous scheme." says Sophie.

"Klaus and I kissed." Christy says.

Sophie becomes astonished. "Oh my gosh, you and Klaus?"

"And we hooked up, once, and that was it." Christy says.

"Oh my gosh, Christy." Sophie says with a smile, and looks pass her. "And speaking of Klaus."

Christy looks at Klaus as he has just walked inside. She and Klaus exchange looks at each other.

"I'll see you around, Christy." Sophie says, getting up, and walks away.

"Christy?" Klaus says.

Christy gets up and walks away from him, he walks after her, walking out of Rousseau's.

"Don't walk away from me." Klaus says.

"Don't follow me." Christy says.

"Why are you so annoyed?" Klaus asks her.

Christy stops walking and turns around to look at him. "I phone called you, and you didn't answer your phone, why didn't you?"

"I was a tad bit busy." Klaus says.

"And you couldn't pick up your phone, when you were done?" Christy says.

"Well, pardon me, Love, I have more important things to do, other than thinking about you, Christiana." Klaus says.

"You're so full of shit." Christy says, and smirks. "So, I guess us hooking up in my bed means shit to you."

"Hooking up with you was nothing to me." Klaus says.

"Oh, really?" Christy says. "Then, why did you get so worked up about Thierry? Why do you care about me spending time with him?"

"You're beautiful, gorgeous, and Thierry doesn't deserve you." Klaus says to her.

"You don't know what I deserve, Klaus. So, do me a favor and leave me alone." Christy says, becoming agitated, and walks away from him.

"Thierry isn't the man for you, Christy." Klaus says.

Christy turns around and looks at Klaus. "I know." And she walks away from him.

Klaus sighs to himself as he proceeds to fight the romantic affections he has for Christy.

⚜️⚜️

ROUSSEAU'S

Klaus is sitting at a table, drinking bourbon. To him, thinking drinking bourbon would keep his mind off of Christy. Of course, she's beautiful, gorgeous, attractive, and despite their intimate hookup at her apartment, he's been fighting his romantic affections for Christy, who knows that Klaus does, in fact, has fallen in love with her.

Thierry slowly walks inside Rousseau's. And Klaus, slightly drunk, vamp-speeds to him, and pins Thierry against the wall.

"You stay away from Christy, or I will tear you limb from limb." Klaus says.

"You're slightly drunk, Klaus, and by the way, why do you give a shit about Christy anyway? You just wanted to use her for magical power against your enemies. And she even figured out your mischievous scheme." Thierry says.

Klaus slings Thierry across the bar. And he falls onto the floor.

"Klaus?" Camille says.

"Spare me your therapy talk, Camille." Klaus says.

Thierry looks up at Klaus and slowly gets up to his feet. "Is that you're in a grumpy mood? Because you think something's going between me and Christy? Yeah, she and I had a coffee date, and that was it, and as for the text message I texted her last night, I was saying that I was gonna see her around the French Quarter because she and I have become best friends."

"And what of the kiss on the cheek emoji?" Klaus asks Thierry.

Thierry rolls his eyes. "It's just an emoji, Klaus."

Klaus looks at Thierry. And is magically slung away from him with a blue orb and smashes into a table.

Christy looks at Klaus, annoyed. "You just had to get drunk and take your frustration out on my best friend, Thierry." And looks at Thierry. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah. I'll be fine." Thierry says, reassuring Christy.

Thierry and Christy exchange glum looks at each other. And he vamp-speeds away.

Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other. She gives him a glum look.

"Christy?" Klaus says.

Christy walks away from him, walking out of Rousseau's. Klaus and Camille exchange glum looks at each other. And he sits down at table.
