"I can't deal with this silence anymore." Claire said walking up to her mother in the kitchen. Liz turns to her, her heart breaking even more as she watches tears slowly slip down her daughters face. "I just lost the man who raised me... please don't tell me I've lost my mother too." Claire's voice cracks.

"Oh, baby, no" Liz whispers walking over to her. Claire clenches her eyes shut and hugs Liz tightly. "You didn't lost me, I'm so sorry" Liz whispers. "I was just angry. I don't understand you connection to the Mikaelson's. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."

Claire cried on her mothers shoulder, gripping her tightly like a lifeline. Liz could feel a few tears slip down her own face. She rubs her daughters back slowly. She whispers comforting things in her ear, trying to calm her down.

"Where the hell have you been?" Henrik snapped stepping outside. He glares at Klaus for not coming sooner before his eyes went to his other brother. "Kol" He whispers.

"Henrik?" Kol asked looking at him. "How is this possible?"

"Our mate is very extraordinary." Henrik says smiling at him. Kol smiles and quickly hugs his brother. They hadn't been that close during their human life but Kol missed him. He mourned his younger brother like the rest of his family. Now he's back and he felt ecstatic.

"Where's Claire?" Klaus asks once Kol and Henrik pull away.

"She's with her mother, thought I'd give her a few minutes alone." Henrik said. Klaus grumbles but stays on the porch. He looks through the window seeing Claire hugging her mother and knew it would be best to stay outside for a few moments. "How did the dinner go?"

"As good as one can expect" Elijah says appearing with Finn.

"You're actually..." Finn whispers his voice fading out.

"In the flesh." Henrik said giving him a cheeky smile.

"Mother truly wasn't lying." Finn said. Henrik frowns his eyebrows.

"Mother?" Henrik questioned.

"Looks like you're not the only one that's come back from the dead." Klaus said clapping him on the back of his shoulder. "Mother dearest is alive and well."

"She was in the locked coffin" Henrik realizes. Klaus nods.

"Excuse me, gentlemen." Elijah said walking past them and in the house. He had seen Liz let go of Claire and walk down the hall leaving their mate alone. He opens the door and walks inside. Klaus instantly follows behind him.

Kol and Finn try to follow in after Henrik but can't since their not invited in. Kol growls in annoyance. He wanted nothing more than to be with her but the barrier wouldn't let him.

"You're here" Claire whispers, a ghost smile appearing on her lips.

"Of course we're here" Elijah says kissing her forehead gently.

"I apologize we couldn't be here sooner, sweetheart." Klaus said kissing her on the forehead as well.

"The dinner... how did it go?" Claire asked. Elijah smiles and grabs Klaus's shirt, dragging him to the side. Klaus gives him a look and shoves his brother off of him. Claire looks at them weirdly before movement by the door gains her attention. "Kol... Finn." She whispers walking towards them.

"Mind inviting us in, beautiful?" Kol questions with a charming smile.

"Of course, both of you, come in" She invites. Kol dashes towards her, engulfing her in his arms. She stumbles slightly but snuggles her head into his chest.

Kol could remember all the times he's mocked soulmates. All the times he's tormented them to get them to do what he wanted. Soulmates, he found, were easy to threaten. None of them were strong enough to stop him from doing what he wanted.

But now, as he holds her in his arms, he growls at the thought of anybody doing to her what he's done to others. Murderous thoughts filled his mind as he thinks about what he would do to anybody who dare harm a single hair on her head.

Claire turns in his arms. Kol refused to release her but allows her to turn to greet Finn. She leans towards the eldest and wraps her arms around him. Finn smiles and kisses the top of her head.

For the first time in his immortal life, he didn't mind being who he is. He didn't feel like a monster, what kind of monster could possibly be blessed with someone like her? For once, he felt like he could accept himself. She made everything better and he's only been with her a few short moments.

Claire finally felt complete. She felt like a puzzle that had pieces missing but not anymore. She wondered how she would feel once she had completed the bond with both of them. She felt giddy at the idea.

"I'm so happy you two are here" Claire whispers.

"We're happy to be here, beautiful" Kol whispers in her ear. His nose nuzzles into her neck.

"I wish it was under better circumstances." Claire whispers. Finn frowns and instantly wipes away her tears. He didn't like the feeling he got when he watches her cry, he doesn't like her sad.

"Do you need anything sweetheart?" Klaus asks stepping closer to her.

"No, I'm fine" Claire whispers. "I'm going to check on Caroline, excuse me." She says walking away from them. Kol pouts not wanting to be separated from her.

"Give her time." Elijah says eyeing Kol who rolled his eyes.

"Hey, Care-bear" Claire whispers finding her older sister standing by Madelyn's crib.

"She's getting so big." She whispers. "I can't believe she's going to be one in a couple months." Claire smiles walking over to her.

"I can't believe it either" Claire mutters.

"I see you finally have all your mates" Caroline notes having heard everything with Kol and Finn. "I'm happy for you" Caroline smiles.

"Thanks" Claire whispers hugging her sister. Caroline hugs her back, the both of them watching Madelyn sleep.

"She won't remember him." Caroline whispers.

"No... but she'll know him.. I'll make sure of it." Claire mutters. Caroline smiles and grips Claire tighter.

"Mom's having the morgue take dad" Caroline whimpered.

"It's not like he can just stay in the bedroom" Claire muttered. Caroline rolled her eyes and let Claire go. "I'm sorry.. Guess that was insensitive"

"It's fine" Caroline sighed sitting on her sister bed. "I am so tired"

"Why don't you stay here in my room... I don't think I'm gonna get much sleep tonight." Claire muttered. Caroline grinned at her.

"At least have the decency to keep quiet." Caroline teased. Claire 'glared' at her sister while trying to stifle a smile. She grabbed a shoe and threw it at her. Caroline dodges it while laughing.

"Get some sleep, Care-bear."

"Night, Baby Face." Caroline whispers laying in her bed. Claire smiles leaving the room.

"Who are those people in my kitchen?" Liz asked in a hushed tone.

"Vampires with super hearing mom." Claire deadpans. Liz sighs. "They're my mates, I can introduce you if you want" Claire suggested.

"I have to call the morgue" Liz muttered walking towards her room.

"You already did though" Claire said but Liz walks into her room and closes the door.

"Elskan?" Claire pulls herself together and spins on her heals. She smiles at him. He walks up to her. He smiles pulling her into his arms. "You don't have to do that."

"Do what?" Claire whispers.

"Put on a strong face." The smile leaves her lips. "It's going to be alright beautiful." He whispers hugging her.

"I'm thirsty" She whispers.

"What do you want?" He asks.

"Tea" She decides after a few moments.

"Come on" He mutters leading her into the kitchen.

"Your tea will be done in a moment, sweetheart." Klaus says gently. Claire gives him a small smile.

"Come here" Kol mutters grabbing Claire. He sitting at the table and he pulls her onto his lap. She smiles leaning against him.

"Are any of you thirsty?" Claire asks desperately trying to distract herself. "I know where Caroline keeps her blood bags."

"We're fine, darling" Kol mutters against her skin.

"Here, sweetheart" Klaus says handing her some tea. She smiles at him. He kisses her forehead softly.

"What happened at the dinner?" Claire asks. "It felt like you had a rough time." She said looking at Klaus. She had felt the pain from him being stabbed by the daggers.

"Well, you got Finn and Kol. Asher got Rebekah. Out mother has been risen from the dead. The Salv-"

"Wait, what?" Claire asked frowning her eyebrows. "Is that what was in the locked coffin?" Klaus nods. "Interesting... Why aren't you with her? Surely you've missed her, she's been dead for a long time."

"Because you are immensely more important, love" Klaus answers her instantly. "Our mother can wait, you need us now."

"Klaus-" Claire sighs.

"Don't fight us on this" Elijah pleads. "We want to be here, with you."

"Don't you want us here, darling?" Kol muttered resting his chin on her shoulder.

"Of course... I just know how important family is and I thought-"

"Stop thinking so much, Angel." Henrik grins. "We want to be here with you and we are. Don't dwell on it."

"Thank you" She whispers. Kol kisses her shoulder. Claire's eyes gaze over at Finn. She smiles at him and he instantly brightens. "Do you want something more comfortable?" She asks noticing that the clothes he was wearing weren't from this century.

"I'm alright, Princess" He mutters reaching for her hand. She gives it to him.

"You could use a hair cut" She whispers.

"Are you offering your services?" He asks gently with a lopsided grin.

"I'm sure I can do something" She said standing up. "If you're brave enough." She winks at him. His grin deepens before standing up. She leads him into the bathroom. "Sit" She says and he obeys. She looks around finding a few brushes and scissors. "I'm going to wash your hair first"

Finn nods and leans over the bath tub as she instructs him. She kneels beside him, after grabbing the adjustable shower head. She grabs some shampoo and conditions. She smiles at Finn before wetting his hair. He closes his eyes, enjoying the feeling of her hands messaging his head.

Once Claire had his hair washed, she brushed it and started to cut. Finn keeps his eyes shut as she works. A small smile continues to stay on her face as she cuts his hair. She's enjoying herself. She likes being so close to him and him putting his trust in her hands.

Once it's cut she dried his hair. She smiles to herself as she brushes the now dried hair. She felt proud, his hair didn't look like complete shit. She had done Elijah's and could remember doing Bill's a few times. Poor Bill, the first few times she doesn't know how he allowed himself to be seen in public after what she did to his hair but she got better.

"There... you're all done." She whispers taking a step away from him. He looks in the mirror. "Do you like it?" She asks.

"I do" He nods smiling at her. "Thank you." He steps closer to her. She stays in her spot, looking up into his eyes. He is very tall and she is very short. She raises her hand and runs her fingers through his hair before caressing his cheek. He leans into her hand, his eyes still gazing into hers.

"This all feels like a dream." Claire whispers to him. "I'm scared that I'm going to fall asleep and wake up and my life will be perfectly normal." His hands reach for her waist, he pulls her close.

"I'm not going anywhere, Princess" He whispers to her. "Me, my brothers, we're here for good."

"Good" She whispers wrapping her arms around his neck. She hugs him tightly. He buries his head in her neck. He could feel his instincts fighting him to mark her but he ignores it knowing now was not the time to be doing something like that.
