SAO PAULO
- "Wake up, darling! The house is on fire." Kol yelled shaking Natali who was still sleeping.
- Natali's eyes popped open, "What!?" she exclaimed and turned herself around, just to be faced with sunlight as Kol moved curtains and burst out in a laugh.
- Natali frowned and shake her head in frustration, she closed her eyes, "Go to hell!" she shouted.
- "But no really." Kol spoke, "Do you see how hot I'm? House can be literally set on fire."
- "I'll set you on fire if you don't shut up." Natali growled.
- Kol smirked, before saying, "It's time to wake up, darling."
- "It's not." Natali simply replied.
- "It is." Kol told her.
- "IT'S NOT!" Natali yelled and pulled the covers over her head.
In the next moment, Kol zoomed towards her and pulled the covers away from her, dropping them down onto the floor.
- "Why the bloody hell are you awake?" Natali mumbled into the pillow.
- "I can't sleep." Kol replied.
- "Well I can, so leave me alone." Natali told him, angrily.
- "I'm bored." Kol informed her.
- "Then go bother someone else." Natali told him.
- "Who? We are the only ones here." Kol told her.
- Natali sighed in annoyance, "I don't know and I don't care. Just let me sleep." she told him desperately.
- "Come on, darli-" Kol spoke, but he was cut off when Natali turned herself to face him and took her phone from the nightstand, "It's 7 in the morning, are you fucking kidding me?" she yelled, turning the phone towards him.
- Kol couldn't help but smile at how much frustrated she was, "I know." he said dryly.
- "Motus!" Natali screamed and Kol flew out of the room, "Obstructio." as she said that word doors of the room slammed closed and locked so that Kol is not able to walk back in.
Natali exclaimed a deep breath and laid back on the bed. She managed to control her rapid breathing after Kol pissed her off, but she couldn't fall asleep again. The more she tried to sleep, the less she could. She was just becoming more nervous and started rolling herself from side to side. She plumped up her pillows and pounded them with her fist. No matter how she positioned herself, she couldn't get comfortable.
Then again she changed her position and she was lying on her back with her legs dangling over the sides on the mattress when the music began.
She sighed in annoyance. Kol turned on the music as loud as he could. She almost cried out in frustration. She was so exhausted, but because of him, she couldn't fall asleep again. He was doing everything he could to make sure she stays awake and eventually come out of the bedroom.
Natali pulled the ends of a pillow up around her ears. When that didn't work, she turned on her side and pulled the pillow over her head, leaving just enough space to breathe.
She could still hear music.
The first song ended and the next came right after it. Sounding even louder than the previous one.
- "No!" Natali shouted, yanking the pillow off the bed and throwing it at the curtains, "Turn it off! I'm trying to sleep!"
The music stopped abruptly. She didn't think that would work. But it was too soon to get her hopes up, Kol was probably just trying to find a song that sounds louder with the bass.
And she was right - It wasn't enough that she felt like she will go deaf with the first song, but now she could feel the glass around her tremble under the pounding of the bass.
Sitting on the bed Natali placed her hand on her forehead and rubbed her temples tightly. Then she slipped from the warmth of the bed, placing her bare feet on the cold floor, one foot at the time. She slowly stood up, feeling tired and stiff, before heading towards the bathroom and slamming the doors shut behind her.
She threw Kol's t-shirt that she was sleeping in onto the bathroom floor and stepped into the shower. She took a long warm shower, under a slight spray if hot water.
After the shower, she dried her hair with the towel, examined herself in the mirror and put on her bathrobe. Then went to the living room and saw Kol who was texting with someone and a dead body of the girl was sitting next to him.
- "Who are you texting with?" Natali asked, making her presence known.
- Kol lifted his gaze up from the phone just enough to look at her; "Why? Are you jealous?" he asked.
- Natali pursed her lips in annoyance, "I'm just asking." she told him.
- "I'm gonna tell you just so that you don't get jealous even more." Kol spoke, adding, "I'm texting with Rebekah."
- Natali raised her eyebrows, "So she wants to talk with you?" she asked.
- "No." Kol simply replied, "I'm trying to make her forgive me."
- "Well, I'm sure she will text you when she realizes that you won't stop." Natali told him.
- "I don't know when will that happen." Kol said, pausing for a moment to scroll down the messages, then continuing, "I already send her around a hundred messages."
- Natali's mouth propped open, before speaking, "You..Oh my God." she rolled her eyes, "I'm taking back my words, no wonder she is not texting you back. Thank Universe we haven't meet in the twenty-first century."
- "Why are you saying that darling?" Kol asked.
- "Because you would bother me the same way." Natali told him, "I'm sure Rebekah is sleeping as I should, but I can't."
- "Why can't you fall asleep?" Kol asked like he didn't know the reason already.
- Natali shoots him a look, "You're getting on my nerves." she hissed, continuing, "And I told you to turn this off." a few seconds later the music stopped playing because she blows up the speakers and walked away, leaving satisfied Kol in the living room.
Cursing Kol under her breath she went to the kitchen, seeing one of the servant girls there she asked, "Does he annoys you?"
When the girl didn't answer her since she was compelled to be quiet, Natali compelled her, "Answer me!" and she sounded very angry.
- "W-who?" The girl asked in a shaky voice.
- "My boyfriend, who is an annoying idiot by the way." Natali replied.
- "I can hear you darling." Kol yelled.
- Natali rolled her eyes and shot a look at the girl demanding an answer, a few seconds later girl spoke, "No."
- "No?" Natali exclaimed surprised that his answer was negative.
- The girl shakes her head at respond, as Kol spoke, "I can't annoy her, the only thing I can do is kill her."
- "Then I think you need more friends." Natali yelled so he can hear her.
- "You wouldn't think that if I didn't wake you up in the seven in the morning." Kol yelled back.
- "I would." Natali told him.
- "Then I'll make sure I find some girl company." Kol spoke, the sound of his voice sounding closer, as Natali turned herself she saw him leaning against the door frame, a cheeky smirk was on his face.
- Natali narrowed her eyes at him, then smiled, "Then go and find some girl company." she shoots back.
- Kol chuckled, "I will." he replied.
- "Don't expect them to be better than me." Natali told him with sassiness in her voice.
Kol winked at her before he walked away from the kitchen. Natali rolled her eyes for the hundredth time today and sank her fangs deep into the girl's neck and she let out a scream. The blood poured into her mouth, it was bitter but it still entranced her and she began to drink even more.
After feeding she came back into the living room with a bottle of wine. She didn't expect Kol to still be there, but he was.
Suddenly Kol's phone gets a notification about a new message. He picked it up and smiled when he saw it was Rebekah. He opened the message, "Rebekah replied." he said happily, then read it aloud, "You have no idea how much I hate that you have access to new technologies. Endless exclamation marks."
Natali laughs as she heard the message and saw Kol's face. He didn't though Rebekah would answer like that.
But regardless of that, he sent her a new message, reading, "Bekah, forgive me for trying to keep you alive."
- Just a few seconds later Rebekah replied, "You don't need to keep me alive."
- "Come on, so far you would already forgive Nik." Kol replied within seconds.
- "I wouldn't." Rebekah replied quickly, adding, "Stop annoying me."
- "Funny, Natali said the same thing." Kol answered.
- "I wonder why.." Rebekah answered him.
- "I woke her up in the seven in the morning." Kol replied her with "face with tears of joy emoji".
- Rebekah sent him "unamused face emoji" adding, "I feel sorry for her because she needs to be around you 24/7!"
- "She complains, but she likes it." Kol replied.
- Natali looks down at his phone and reading the message he just sent, she says coldly, "No, I don't."
- Kol grinned, "It didn't sound like you don't last night." he told her.
- "Well, it will tonight." Natali shot back firmly, taking a long sip of her wine.
- "Then until tonight comes." Kol says and leans forward, then starts kissing her neck.
- Natali wriggles herself away from him, "Uh, I don't think so." she tells him and places a glass of wine on the table.
Kol places his arm around her shoulder and presses her against him.
- "If you don't want to cuddle why did you sit so close to me?" Kol asked her.
- "I was reading messages." Natali tells him irritable, trying to push herself away from him, but his arm strength was a little more up to par then hers.
- "That sounds like an excuse to me." Kol says casually, still holding her tightly then looks at his phone again, "Since we are speaking about that, Rebekah didn't text me back."
- "Let go of me." Natali told him with desperation in her voice.
- "Darling, you have more than enough strength to push me away, but only if you want to." Kol told her with a smile, then continued, "I'm not holding you with much force and you're not using much force to break free. That is rather embarrassing on your part, giving the fact that you're thousand years old." he mocked.
- In annoyance, Natali lets out a deep breath, "Are you kidding me?"
While she was forced to stays in a position she was in Kol ignores her and starts sending Rebekah more messages. Natali was reading as he sends her such nonsense just so that he can get her attention. Natali manages to grab his phone and tips to Rebekah, "HELP ME!" with her name so that Rebekah knows she sends it.
- Kol takes a phone away from her and reads aloud while typing, "I guess she doesn't want to talk to you either, Natali."
- "Did you really just sent her that?" Natali asked him.
- "Yes." Kol replies simply.
Natali sighed and dropped her forehead on Kol's chest when suddenly they heard a notification for a message.
- "What did she say?" Natali asked quickly.
- Kol opens the message with a smile and reads it, "I'M GOING TO BLOCK YOU IF YOU DON'T STOP!!!!!" he smiles falls from his face as soon as he read it.
- "No! She can't do that." Kol protested.
- Natali laughs, "Yes, she can." she tells him, "Stop if you don't want that to happen." she continued and looked up at him as she placed her hand over his, taking the phone away from him and throwing it onto the other end of the corner couch.
Kol sees that as a chance to kiss her. So he leaned forward and captured her lips that were curved into a smile with his. He ached with the need for her. His tongue flicked across her lips, and she opened her mouth slightly, her tongue touching the tip of his. He suppressed a groan, but he couldn't suppress his body's reaction. When Natali felt him getting hard under her and losing the tight grip he held around her, she broke the kiss and moved away from his as fast as she could.
- "I told you not tonight and not today." Natali reminded him of taking the glass of wine and poured the rest of the wine down her throat.
