Klaus POV

It had been three days. Things have been going well. Tara is like a whole new person. Today is currently Monday 7:00 am. Tara was sleep beside me still cuddled up into my chest. I sat up slowly trying to not wake up Tara. The sun had began to shine through the balcony
making Tara turn away from me.

I pulled  the sheet back on Tara's back. I turned around hearing a phone and realized it was in my nightstand. I carefully but quickly answered before it could wake up Tara. I answered and heard his voice.

"Honey, I'm sorry we haven't spoken to you in a while. Things have been going on. We're almost able to come get you."
I was silent. Then I spoke.
"Youre trying to take her from ME".
My voice had gotten louder and Tara body began to move. I felt Tara father breathe heavily on the phone. I gently rubbed her head and she settled back to sleep. I got up from the bed and walked out of the room closing the door.

"I let you and your wife live. Cause Tara would need family for her wedding. But"
"BUT NOTHING! WHERE IS MY DAUGHTER? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER? SHE WOULD NEVER MISS A CALL FROM HER PARENTS."

"LOWER YOUR VOICE YOU DIRTY WARLOCK YOUR DAUGHTER IS FINE SHE IS WITH ME. AND SHE WILL STAY WITH ME AND IF YOU COME FOR HER I WILL KILL YOU AND YOUR WIFE. TARA DOSENT WANT TO TALK TO YOU OR YOUR WIFE ANYMORE. WERE DONE HERE GOODBYE.
"NO NO DONT YOU HANG UP THIS PHONE GIVE ME BACK MY DAUGHTER YOU DEMON".

I laughed and hung up the phone. I stuffed the phone in my pocket. I walk back into the room to see Tara dressed in her school uniform. She turned around to me her face looking nervous.

"Klaus I can't find my phone. I'm gonna be late".
I looked at her grabbing both her hands.
"What are you gonna be late for?"
She looked at me like I was stupid then she let let go of my hand and continued looking on the floor, and under our bed.
"You're not going to school today."
She stopped moving and looked at me.

She smiled like I had made a joke and continue d looking for her phone.
"I'm serious Tara" I said.
She acrunched her face and looked at me.
"Klaus I know I've probably missed a bunch of days because of my accident. I'm going to school today.If I have to go without a phone fine."

She grabbed her book bag on the table and tried to walk past me. I stood in front of her not letting her pass. She went left and I went the same way. It going on four times until she huffed. I smirked at her while crossing my arms.

"I can do this all day my love."
"Klaus I don't have time for this. Why can't I go to school? I'm perfectly fine see " she said aggressively.
"You need to get checked out by the doctor first."
"Please Klaus."
Tara unfolded  her arms. I sat there as I watched her face. 
"Fine.But I'm taking you to school and picking you up."

Tara squeeled and grabbed her book bag. She ran downstairs and almost tripped. I vamped down stairs just in time to grab her by her hip before she could fall face forward. I held her hip the whole rest of way down. We both walked into the courtyard meeting my siblings all standing around talking.

"Rebecca watch Tara for me."
Rebecca turned around and nodded .
Elijah came forward while I went into the kitchen to make a phone call.

Tara POV
"Elijah we haven't had our book sesh. I was wondering if we could read the one from 1880. The romance novel."
Elijah looked at me with wonder.
"Of course. How about today when you get back from school?"
"Perfect."

I looked around to see no Klaus.
"If you're looking for Nick he went to make a phone call. Why don't we chat for a quick second in the parlor? I can get you some breakfast. I know you're famished."
"Yea."

Rebecca grabbed my arm and we went in the direction of the parlor room. I realized once we sat down I had never been in this room. There were vintage chairs and two couches. In the middle of the two off-white couches was a low brown stained table. I and Rebecca sat on the same side.

"So what are we wearing today."
"What do you mean you don't like?"
Rebecca looked at me from my head to my toe.
"I think we need to take you shopping."
"Hey. I have to wear a uniform. Not everyone could pull off Khaki and polo blue."
"Honey. You didn't pull it off either."
"You try looking good in these colors."

"Oh trust me I have in the 1920's " Rebcca said.
"I've went to many schools. Actually I went to the first preptory with girls and when I say the uniforms were ugly. Oh they were ugly."
We both started laughing. A knock on the door made us turn our heads.

"Come in" Rebcca said.
A lady in a maid outfit walked in with a tray of breakfast croissants and tea in a kettle. She took all the food,plates, cups and kettle off of her tray and walked out.
I grabbed a breakfast sandwich and offered it to Rebbeca.

"I'm fine darling. You go ahead I will prepare the tea".
I started eating on the delicious croissant. It was buttery and the smoked bacon was tender. I watch Rebecca pour tea in one cup and the other. Steam whiffed out.
"Two sugars or one" Rebecca asked.
"How about five"
Rebecca looked at me with wide eyes.
"Yea sorry but no. Klaus isn't gonna dagger me for giving you diabetes."
I watched her plop two sugars in hers and three in mine.

"So did you like it back then... I mean the 1920s. What was it like?"
"Oh darling it was amazing there was jazz, bands and Flappers.Flappers were feminist and I might say hot. Marcel dosen't like me talking about my days with women but I can tell he thinks it's hot."

I began to blush and looked away
"So you've slept with women"
"Of course. When you've lived as long as I have you realized gender doesn't matter."
I nodded my head and tried the tea Rebecca made.
We continued talking and laughing about the roaring 20s.
