Niklaus pulls away and I look behind him. I don't see Rebekah or Elijah.
I ask,"Where's Rebekah and Elijah?"
Niklaus says,"They aren't with me. They are back in Mystic Falls. In Virginia."
I say,"Virginia. Now that's a peculiar place to be."
Niklaus says,"It's actually quite nice."
I look around and see everyone staring at us. I look to the DJ and he starts playing music. I look up at Marcel and see him staring. Watching. I look at Niklaus and smile. I grab his hand and pull him out onto the dance floor. The song changes to a slow song.
Niklaus asks,"May I have this dance?"
Niklaus takes my hand in his and I place my other hand on his shoulder. His hand is on my waist. I look up at him and he smiles. The dance floor clears and its just me and Niklaus.
Niklaus says,"Let's see if you still remember the lessons I gave you."
I say,"Let's see if you remember AND can keep up."
He looks in my eyes and says,"I think I can keep up with you, love."
I feel my stomach flip and he starts to lead. Soon we are gliding across the floor in graceful moves. Niklaus throws me into the air. I spin and he catches me. I put a little modern dance in my moves and slide down his front. I hear him gasp as I push my behind against his front. I come back up and he ends with his fangs out and near my neck. I am breathless and so is he.
He says,"Not bad."
I laugh and say,"Not so bad yourself."
I look up at Marcel and see him smiling. Everyone starts clapping. I run and blur up to Marcel. I look at him and smile. Marcel doesn't look happy.
I say,"What's wrong darlin? You told me to enjoy myself. I am."
Marcel says,"I didn't think you would dance with him."
I say,"Marcellus."
He says,"Natalya."
I say,"No need to be jealous."
Marcel looks surprised and says,"I am not jealous."
I giggle and kiss him on the cheek and say,"Sure you're not."
I slide down the banister railing. I look at the DJ and he looks at me.
I say,"Play Don't Stop Believin'. Toss me a Mic."
He nods and tosses me a Mic. I catch it and blur into the room and change into my outfit before. The song starts playing. I sing the song and everyone dances.
