Nicole..

(Outside at the garden)

(Lexa)

I actually heard you this time.

(Kai)

Seems like you're having fun.

(Lexa)

They're having this argument about who Rico is dating.

(Kai)

Really? (Laughs)

(Lexa)

It's pretty interesting actually. My best bet is that he's doing them both.

(Kai)

Okay, i'm cutting you off. No more vamp hearing.

(Lexa)

What's on the schedule now? What can i learn?

(Kai)

Getting greedy are we? No but..um.. change of plans for tonight. I'm ordered out.

(Lexa)

Again?

(Kai)

I'm just going on with tyler max and sam

(Lexa)

Tyler?

(Kai)

Yeah, he's getting close now and these are the final tests.

(Lexa)

So you'll be back tonight?

(Kai)

Yes, but late. Go to sleep and i'll come say goodnight when i'm back.

(Lexa)

You know if you keep doing..

(Kai crashes his lips onto hers)

(Lexa)

..this.. ..kind of stuff..I'll ..i'll get used to it.

(Kai)

You talk a lot while kissing.

(Lexa)

I'm making a conversation.

(The lovebirds laugh)

(Lexa)

So what am i supposed to do while you're gone? When are you leaving?

(Kai)

I'm not sure when we leave but don't you have to study?

(Lexa)

Oh shit! I totally forgot about school! I've been wasting my time listening to gossip. Have fun when you go out. I have to get Vanessa and then study!

(Kai)

You know, i can be the one supervising you too. It doesn't have to be Vanessa.

(Lexa)

If you are the one watching me i won't get anything done. See you later

(Later)

(Jolene)

Hey..

(Kai)

Hey.

(Jolene)

Look, i know i hurt you..and your father..when i left but..

(Kai)

Let me guess, you had your reasons.

(Jolene)

I did.

(Kai)

Good, then you can stick to your reasons.

(Jolene)

I understand that you are mad, but..

(Kai)

I'm mad because of the way you talked to Celeste. You have no right to come here and talk to her, of all people, like that. Do you think i'm mad because of you left? I don't care that you left, because the second you did, my mother died. You're staying here because dad is letting you, but don't expect us to have..anything. There is nothing between us and there never will be.

(Later that night)

(Kai)

Okay, we're just going to spend some time here.

(Tyler)

We're not feeding?

(Kai)

Are you hungry?

(Sami)

Yeah..kind of.

(Kai)

We'll share one.

(Max)

All of us?

(Kai)

Yeah, meaning everyone only gets a sip or two. Tyler go pick someone.

(Tyler)

Why me?

(Kai)

They already did last time. Get going and charm someone to go with you. No compulsion.

(Kai's POV)

Shit, isn't that..Lexa's friend..

(Nicole)

You! I remember you! You were the last person with her! What did you do to her!? She left town because of you and she never leaves without me!

(Kai)

Look, you don't..

(Nicole)

Do you know where she is? She won't return my calls.

(Kai's POV)

Yeah, i've checked her phone and boy are there calls from Nicole on it. She's called every day..talk about annoying. Just leave Lexa to live her life.

(Nicole)

I'm worried. She's never left anywhere without me.

(Kai)

I don't know what you're talking about.

(Nicole)

What, you don't remember her?

(Kai)

You're mistaking me for someone else.

(Nicole)

You're pathetic.

(Kai)

I don't know..

(Nicole)

Don't act like you don't know who i'm talking about. Lexa was with you a few hours before she called me and said she needed time. So whatever you did, you'll be sorry.

(Sami)

Who's this?

(Kai)

No one.

(Kai walks away leaving Sami and Max to follow)

(Sami)

Yo boss, why did that chick ask about Lexa? Does she know?

(Kai)

No, and it's staying that way.

(Nicole comes out)

(Nicole)

So you do know who she is! And better, you know where she is!

(Kai's POV)

Damn it.

(Kai)

Go join Tyler but stay focused.

(Nicole)

Tell me where she is! What did you do to her!?

(Kai)

Stop screaming.

(Kai's POV)

What the hell am i supposed to do with her!

(Nicole)

You did something to my best friend! And i want to know what!

(Kai)

For God's sake woman, leave me alone.

(Nicole)

You think this is bad? I'll show you bad if you don't tell me what you did to her.

(Kai)

I turned her! Are you happy?

(Nicole)

What do you mean turned her?

(Kai)

I turned her into a vampire and now she has to stay at the mansion until she's able to be around humans.

(Nicole)

Fine, don't tell me but when i find out, i'll come after you!

(Nicole leaves)

(Kai's POV)

How can she be friends with her? She's suffocating me, and i don't even know her.. What's the big deal, so she left town. Really, if she's reacting like this she must really care for Lexa. We need to get out of here before she causes another scene. She'll be watching me like a hawk which makes it risky to feed. We're going to have to call it off tonight.

(Later in Lexa's room)

(Kai gets into her bed)

(Next morning)

(Lexa)

What the..?

(Lexa's POV)

Oh my god. That's so cute. I've never seen him asleep. I can't believe he came, it's making my heart melt just a little bit more. This gives me a chance to study him closer. He looks so peaceful laying next to me. Shit, his eyelashes are much longer than i ever imagined. How could i not have noticed? When i moved, i felt a skin touching my head. Glancing down i saw his bare chest and..damn..abs. His upper body is this well defined triangle with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He looks a lot bigger without a shirt..wonder what he looks like without pants. Oh shit, he moved. Okay, enough with the scavenger hunt. I could kill some time reading one of the books related to one of my classes. He looks magnificent and he's all mine. Or well, i don't really know if we are a couple or not. I mean, he did call me babe before but maybe that doesn't mean girlfriend. I really do wonder what our relationship is.

(Lexa gets out of bed to go read)

(Lexa's POV)

I kind of lost track of time but i think at least an hour passed before Kai woke up. Seeing him stretch while getting up from the bed did something to me that i don't really understand.

(Lexa)

I never noticed you getting in the bed with me last night.

(Kai)

You were kind of out of it.

(Lexa)

How did it go last night? Did Tyler do good?

(Kai)

Yup.

(Kai's POV)

I don't know if i should tell her about Nicole.

(Kai)

We ran into Nicole.

(Lexa)

You did?

(Lexa)

How.how was she?

(Kai)

Pissed at me for some reason. She thinks i did something to you because you left. She kept yelling at me actually.

(Lexa)

Yeah, she's kind of over protective. I really miss her.

(Kai)

I know. With this rate that you're going you'll be out of here in no time.

(Lexa)

What's left to teach me?

(Kai)

Compulsion.

(Lexa)

Sounds hard.

(Kai)

Not really.

(Lexa)

Maybe not for a pro like you.

(Kai)

Pro?

(Lexa)

Yeah, Mr. I've been a vampire my whole life.

(Kai)

Let's go outside and practice.

(Lexa)

Aren't you going to put on a shirt?

(Kai)

Do you want me to put on a shirt?

(Lexa's POV)

No, but i don't want others checking you out either. So a shirt it is.

(Lexa)

If you want me to focus then yeah.

(Kai puts a shirt on)

(Kai)

Happy?

(Lexa)

Mhm. Don't say anything.

(They start walking to the lobby)

(Kai)

I'll go change my shirt, meet you out in the garden.

(Lexa)

Sure.

(Tyler)

Hey Lexa.

(Lexa)

Hey, i heard it went well last night

(Sami)

Yeah and it would be even better if we could have fed.

(Lexa)

Yeah i heard, bummer. I'm glad it went well at least. I'll catch you guys later.

(Tyler)

Sure.

(Kai goes to meet Lexa out in the garden)

(Kai)

Hey.

(Lexa)

Took you long enough.

(Kai)

My room is on the other side of the mansion.

(Lexa)

Then it's a good thing that we are vampires, isn't it? Come on, teach me this shit, Your Honor.
