SUMMER
❛the birthday❜

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Have you ever been so happy that you are scared? That you are just waiting for the other shoe to drop? Waiting for something bad to happen?

That is exactly what I feel as I wake up with a head in my neck and an arm around my waist. I turn to my left to see Klaus and my right to see Stefan.

This summer had been filled with nothing but happiness. Klaus was looking for werewolves but we made sure to have fun.

We went all over Florida looking for some but stopped at someplace I wanted to visit. We spent a week in the Keys just relaxing and being normal.

Caroline and Bonnie even joined us and we all had fun but neither of my mates have kissed me yet! I might sound crazy but two super hot mates and neither have tried to kiss me says a lot.

But they do sleep with me every night since I had a nightmare about my death. Both of them ran into the room when they heard me sob in my sleep.

Since then they haven't let me sleep alone and I have never slept this good in my life and just because they haven't kissed me doesn't mean they haven't held my hand or had their hands wrapped around my waist.

One of them had to always have their hands on me. Not that I mind. I rather enjoyed it. A lot.

Today we were in Tennessee finally finding the werewolf we were looking for. Neither one of my mates would let me go with them on their hunting adventures which is annoying but they were back to being best friends/murder buddies.

This reminds me of my murder buddy who calls me every day to see if he needs to come to get me making both my mates glare at my phone as I laugh and tell him no.

My mom also calls every day to make sure I was okay and safe. As has Caroline who has been catching me up on all the drama happening in Mystic Falls.

Apparently, Jenna broke up with Alaric when Jermey told her everything about the supernatural. Tyler and Jermey have actually got together which made me call both of them to squeal and tell them how proud I was of them.

Now my Kitty-Kat has been enjoying her freedom. She started traveling but still calls every week to check-in.

Bonnie has been practicing her magic. Her Dad tried to make her go see her other family but she convinced him to let her stay with Care for the summer.

But the one thing that has made me want to go on a killing spree was Elena Gilbert who has called Stefan every day since we left. He finally blocked her making her annoy Damon.

On the topic of my mates, I have been trying to convince Klaus to let his sibling free. He tried to dagger Elijah after I left but it didn't work making Klaus just break his neck. I think I might have finally convinced him to think about it. Which is a lot of progress.

Stefan has been doing amazing. He has complete control over his feedings making me so happy for him. I remember one night I asked him how he didn't lose control and he just looked at me with this look in his eyes I couldn't understand and told me, "You. You are my anchor that pulls me back."

Once he told me that I tried so hard to not cry as I hugged him.

Now back at the tasks at hand which is the hardest thing I ever have to do. Get out of bed without waking Stefan or Klaus up.

I slowly move Stefan's arm away from around my waist and then turn Klaus over. I then slowly get out of bed and put a pillow between the two as I head towards the bathroom.

I then step into the shower after getting undressed. As I was washing the conditioner out of my hair the door to the bathroom was opened.

"Rosie!" Stefan calls out making me turn to him and glare but I have never been as happy as I am to the bathroom all fog up so he couldn't see my naked body.

"Do you not know how to knock?!" I yell at Stefan who turns around looking sheepish.

"Sorry I just wanted to let you know we will be leaving soon," Stefan says making me roll my eyes as I step out of the shower and wrap a towel around my body.

"Alright Stefan," I tell him as I walk back to my room not noticing the eyes following my every move as he gulps.

Getting changed into something else and then just braiding my wet hair I stepped out of my room already having all my bags packed and the boys took them to the car.

"Finally love!" Klaus yells making me roll my eyes at him as I walk towards them with their backs turned away from me.

"It took my fifteen minutes. Not my fault you both decided to leave while I was in the shower," I tell them as I take Klaus's drink.

They turn towards me and freeze as they look me up and down. I look towards them as I put my drink down.

"What?" I ask them I look down at my outfits they consisted of a black leather skirt with a zipper going down the side of it. A corset strapless top with a leather jacket over it. With black heels and my necklace that Stefan gave me which I learned had a protection charm on it thanks to Klaus.

"Boys!" I say as I snap my fingers making both of them snap out of it and glare at me.

"Change," they both tell me making me scoff at them.
"No, I am not," I tell them as I turn around to walk away.

As I was about to walk out the penthouse doors Klaus stood in front of me making me roll my eyes at him.

"Rosalie," Klaus says making me look at him.
"You are not leaving in that," he tells me with a clenched jaw making me shake my head at him.

"Nik listen to me," I tell him as I walk closer to him.
"No," I whisper in his ear with a smirk as I walk out of the room.

Klaus and Stefan both stood there with clenched jaws as Stefan tried not to break the glass of bourbon in his hands.

They both sigh as they look at each other. Stefan pours the rest of his bourbon down his throat before he started walking out of the door.

"Let's go find her. She probably went to get a coffee," Stefan says with a sigh as Klaus rolls his eyes and calls him out the door.

And they find Rosie exactly where they thought she would be. She was across the street at Starbucks ordering coffee for the three of them.

"Thank you, David," I said to the nice barista who smiles at me as walk away.

"Hey guys got your coffee orders," I tell them with a smile making both sigh at me as they take their drink. I smile as we head towards the car.

Stefan and Klaus are in the front with me in the back. Stefan and I trade seats every time we drove and it was his turn this time.

"Alright let's go find out Werewolf," I tell the two with a smile making them shake their heads at me as I pull my phone out to text Bonnie and Caroline in our group chat.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Arriving at a bar in the middle of no where called Southern Comfort Bar I sigh seeing the place we were at.

"Alright, so Stefan you go and compel everyone. Love you stay here until we are finished," Klaus says making me roll my eyes at him.

"I need a drink," I tell Klaus as I let my now wavy hair from the braid down and walk into the bar. Stefan and Klaus just watching me go.

"I don't think I have ever met someone so stubborn in a thousand years!" Klaus says as turns around.

"Stubborn is the definition of Rosalie Forbes," Stefan says as he goes into the bar and starts compelling everyone. Klaus shakes his head as he walks into the bar.

He walks in to see Rosie sitting on a stool as she drinks her bourbon and text something to Caroline.

"What's up Ray?" The bartender says as ray walks in and goes to seat down two seats away from me.

"Hey Red, get me a beer and whatever the woman wants," Ray says making me smile at him.

"I'm fine thank you though," I tell him making him nod at me as I feel an arm go around my shoulders.

"Ray? Ray Sutton?" Klaus asks as he pulls me closer to him making me cuddle into his hold. No matter how annoyed I was with him he knew already my one weakness. Hold me and you are forgiven.

"Who wants to know?" Ray asks as he eyes the two of us. He looks like he wants to literally pull me away from Klaus and make sure I am safe.

"I've been looking everywhere for you. We started in Florida, Pensacola. I met a young chap there who you used to work with before you moved to Memphis, now he directed me to two lovely young women. And they led me here, to you," Klaus says with a smirk as he takes a sip of my drink making me roll my eyes at him.

"I think I'll be going," Ray says as he tries to go but Klaus stops him.

"Not so fast mate. You only just got here, now your type is very hard to come by," Klaus tells him as Ray tries to walk the other way but he bumps into Stefan who is standing there and stops him.

"I wouldn't do that," Stefan tells him as he pushes Ray back to the counter.

"Vampires," Ray says as he looks at Stefan and Klaus.

"You're swiftly swift Ray! Yes! My friend here is a vampire. He compelled everybody in the bar so don't look to them for any help. Our lovely and beautiful here and something much more powerful. I, however, I'm something else, a different kind of monster. I've got some vampire, I've got some wolf," Klaus says making Ray look wide-eyed.

"You what?" Ray asks him as he looks between the three of us.

"A hybrid Ray, I'm both. You see I want to create more of me. Now you being the first werewolf that I've come across in many a moon, pun intended Ray! I need you to direct me to your pack. So, where can I find them, Ray?" Klaus asks him nicely but I knew it wouldn't stay nice.

"You can't compel me, it won't work," Ray tells him as
Stefan starts scratching his head, Klaus looks at him and he nods. Stefan turns around and takes something out of his back pocket.

"Can you bring out the darts please?" Stefan asks the bartender as he looks back at Ray.

"Tell you what Ray, We're gonna play a little drinking game, something I like to call truth or wolfsbane," Stefan says as he pulls out a pouch of wolfsbane, pours it into his hand, crushing it with his fingers.

"Oh, this is gonna be fun Ray," Klaus tells him as I get up.

"No, we aren't," I tell Stefan taking the wolfsbane making him pout as I turn to Ray who looks between relieved and scared.

"Now Ray I'm not going to let anyone hurt you and I've already talked to Klaus. He isn't going to turn all your pack members only the ones who want to and if he doesn't follow what I say then he sleeps on the couch and Stefan gets all my cuddles," I tell Ray with a smile.

"What?!" Klaus yells making me glare at him and he sighs but nods his head.

"Now Ray can you please tell me where your pack is?" I ask him making him look at me.

"Your Rosie aren't you?" Ray says making me look confused as Stefan and Klaus eyes at him.

"How did you know that?" I ask him making him smile slightly at me.

"Mason told me. After you had saved him he came to us looking for help away from his pack. Told us all about the small brunette who had a smart mouth but a kind heart," Ray says making me laugh as I shake my head.

"We were with him when you called demanding to come back to Mystic Falls," Ray says making me tense at that.

"He told us what happened to us because of his old pack. You didn't deserve that. They make all werewolves look bad," Ray tells me as he shakes his head.

Klaus wraps an arm around my waist as Stefan holds my hand. Ray looks up and smiles at me.

"It is an honor you meet you, my Queen," Ray says as he bows his head making me look wide-eyed as I look at Stefan and Klaus who were both watching everything.

"I'll take you to them but I need to speak to them. Let them know who you are and what your boyfriend is offering," Ray says making me nod before I realize he said at the end and I blush but nod.

"But you will probably want to change first," he tells me making me look at him confused.

"Hiking isn't really a fun thing to do in something leather and heels," Ray says making me sigh.

"I'll be back don't kill him," I warn as I walk outside and grab my bag, and got a change of clothes and shoes.

Getting to the bathroom I change quickly before walking towards where the three were waiting beside the car.

"Alright let's go," I tell them making both my mates nod as they look at me.

Before they could say anything my phone started ringing making me pause as I look down at it.

"Sorry it's Care," I tell them making them smile at me knowing how close I was with my sister.

"Hey Care," I say with a bright smile making Caroline smile on the other side.

"Hey wanted to check up on you. I'm going out with Jeremy, Tyler, and Bonnie," Caroline tells me making me smile as I nod.

"I'm doing good but be careful and take pictures. Where are y'all crashing tonight?" I ask her as I kick the rocks around.

"Probably at Tyler's," Caroline tells me making me nod.

"Alright, I love you, and call me tomorrow to let me know you are all okay. Be careful Care please," I tell her making Caroline smile.

"I will. I love you Rosie and make sure to tell your mates that if anything happens to you I will kill them," Caroline says making me laugh at her.

"I will. Love you Care," I tell her making her kiss the phone as we hang up. I turn to find my mates leaning against the car with Ray in the back.

"Care said-," I start but Stefan stops me.

"If anything happens to you she will kill us," Stefan says making me smile as I walk over to them.

Stefan wraps his arms around me and pulls me into his chest making me smile as I lean into his touch. He kisses the top of my head.

Once he pulls away I am wrapped in another pair of arms. Klaus wraps his arms tightly around me and kisses my forehead.

"Come on love," Klaus says as he opens the passenger door for me. I smile at him as Stefan gets in the back with Ray and we leave the bar.

As I smile at my mate's happy not knowing that I'm a few hours my twin would be kidnapped but the worst part is that it will be done by someone she should trust. Our father.
