Adelaide's POV
It's been a few weeks since our little talk. We haven't mentioned the kiss since then nor have we done it again but Klaus still stays awake with me at early hours
"Cheater! You've definitely cheated. How can you have 4 +2's?!" I exclaim
"I'm not a cheater I just got lucky cards"he chuckles
"Yh which you dealt out"
We were only 5 minutes into playing uno and I already had twice my original deck. Klaus is on uno but I managed to shrink the deck down to about 8 cards which consisted of +4's, +2's and one colour wheel. I stack all of them down saying uno when I've reached the last one. I waited for him to count how many cards he needs to pick up but instead he played his last card which just happened to be a +4.
"You definitely cheated"
"Don't be a sore looser"
*********************
I stayed in the hotel today while Stefan and klaus went to do God knows what. I FaceTimed Caroline and Davina who were camped out in my room for whatever reason and we started to talk about everything that was going on. I showed them some of the new clothes I bought some of which I would need to send back home seeing as I was already on my 5th suitcase and I came here with none. The gossip call turned into a homework session with all 3 of us completing the work we were given over the holidays
"Someone give me a description for beauty"
"Her beauty was outmatched, she was by far the prettiest woman I had the pleasure of laying my eyes upon, looking at her almost seemed as if it were a gift from God Himself-"hear klaus speak from behind me and I immediately cover my laptop and whisper at him to leave
"Who was that?"
"It sounded like a man?"
I shove Klaus out of the room as he chuckles at the whole situation finding amusement in my annoyance
"Look I don't know who that was but can you tell him to repeat. I only got up to siren" Caroline says
"It was Klaus"
"Tell him to come back." Davina says
"I don't want to" I whine
"Mari, if you don't get your charcoal arse off of that chair and tell him to come back" Davina says
I poke my head out of my room and Klaus looks at me from the sofa expectantly. A huge grin forms on his face when I tell him that they want his help. He repeats the description he gave before and tries to get up to leave when Davina stops him.
"Wait! I need a description for a nightclub. That's where the two meet"
"I think Adelaide would be able to describe that a lot better than me" he smirks
"Your not funny"
Klaus sits back down helping both Davina and Caroline with their short stories and the description that goes in it. He tried offering me help but I refused it slapping his hand away when he tried to correct my spelling. Osa eventually came on call to and decided it was a good idea to do her homework now since we're all there
"Our maths teacher is actually so evil. How can you give us trigonometry and Pythagoras in one question for 1/3 of the paper. And then when I think I'm done I'm hit with the most outrageous looking shape" Caroline complains
"Guys I can't do this anymore, I'm searching the answers. How can I be doing maths in this early morning" Davina says
"It's 1pm"
"Exactly! I should be asleep"
*******************
It's night time again. Klaus said this was the last day at this hotel before we're back on the move again. I headed towards the kitchen as usual and found Klaus standing there with a plate of cookies ready for me to eat. He doesn't normally eat during the night, mostly because I slap his hand away when he tries to eat my cookies but he does get them ready on a plate for me so I don't have to do much.
"Why do we have to watch movies today. What happened to the games" I plop myself on the couch with my plate in hand
"Because yesterday you threw your shoe at my head and I'm not in the mood to endure abuse" I shrug in mild disappointment but I don't argue
Yesterday I had got a tiny bit upset after he had won a game of snakes and ladders. I'm convinced he cheated but regardless I don't think he can hold it against me. I mean I didn't even throw it in his direction it just somehow managed to hit him in the face. To be honest I don't even remember seeing him get hit,I think he's just lying because he's run out of ways to cheat and he can't play anymore.
"Let's watch 'girls trip'"
"Or-" Klaus leans over and grabs the remote from amour of my hand "-we could watch something I want"
"Is the news even on at this time?"
Nik rolls his eyes before surprising me with the movie 'daddy day camp'
"Your choice in movie doesn't make me want to bang my head against the wall" I say in surprise
"Yes well your choice in movie makes me want to drown myself in the toilet"
"You know I'm really surprised you could actually use the remote. I thought you might have to get out the instructions"
"I'm surprised whenever you mention a news channel. I didn't think your brain was smart enough to comprehend what it is"
We both look at each other in mock anger before smiles overtake our faces and he plays the film. After the film had finished he played another one claiming that this was 'his night' so he would be picking all the movies. Sometime during one of the films I had drifted off to sleep on Klaus' shoulder
*********************
The next morning I'm being woken up by shuffling in my room. I look over to see Stefan packing a few of my stuff.
"What are you doing?" I ask
"Good morning to you to. I'm helping, you were sleeping and Klaus said not to wake you up so" Stefan says
"Well, you woke me up. I'm going to take a shower" I get up from my bed and put on my slippers
"Good you need it"
"Oh shut up. I smell better than you on my worst day"
*****************
We're on the road again driving to God knows where. We had to stop at a gas station because Stefan got hungry so it was just me and Klaus in the car.
"If your full name is Niklaus why do you go by Klaus?" I ask breaking the silence
"Niklaus was a name my father gave to me. I prefer to shorten it"
"You should've shortened it to Nik"
"Yes well Nik doesn't seem as scary"
"Klaus sounds like the name of an old brute. Which isn't that far off to be fair" I say
"I'm not getting you cupcakes anymore"
"Yes you are. I'm gonna call you Nik instead. It's better suited to the way you act, at least towards me"
