Imagine Kol trying to convince to you that he's perfect for you // Based on One Direction's Perfect

"I might never be your
knight in shining armor
I might never be the one
you take home to mother
And I might never be the
one who brings you flowers."

Kol Mikaelson was not the kind of guy you marry. He was the kind of guy you sleep with, have fun with, but don't start a relationship with. You knew he wasn't someone you'd take home to meet your family, your mother, or someone who'd always be there for you when you needed a shoulder to cry on. He wouldn't always be there to save you, be your knight in shining armor. He wasn't the perfect guy, who remembers your birthday or your favorite song or color, or who brings you chocolate or flowers or jewelry.

But he was Kol Mikaelson, hot, sexy, flirtatious and enough to satisfy you in some ways. So you and him started a relationship of some kind, not a very serious one but from time to time you found yourself in his bed or him between your sheets. It was passionate, intense, not at all romantic. Not at first, at least.

But Kol - he was interested in you, even if he could not be the ideal boyfriend, ever. But he did like you more than he thought he should have. He enjoyed your company, even outside the bedroom, and he liked hearing your opinions and thoughts and loved seeing you smile and hearing you laugh. It was so much more than just sexual to him, though he didn't admit it at first. He hid it, because after all, you and him were just fooling around, right?

"When I first saw you
From across the room
I could tell that you
were curious."

You and Kol met at a club. It was your birthday, but little things like that didn't interest him. He wanted to dance with you, feel your body against his and make out with you in the shadows of the dance floor. His hands shamelessly touched your curves as he offered to dance with you for a couple of songs, and you let the throbbing beat take you under it's control and allowed Kol to have his way. It wasn't against your will though, but for so long, you had been looking for love, yet now you got the exact opposite.

It was an intense night. Until three in the morning, you and him danced and laughed and had fun, then you ended up at his place where you accidentally broke his bed. He had known you were curious from the first time he saw you, though. His eyes met yours, playfully teasing as you sipped on your drink and caused his trousers to suddenly tighten while your hips swayed from side to side along the song playing in the club. Out of all the people in the crowded room, you managed to meet his eyes, and for several minutes you stared at each other until he made his move.

You could still remember the way his hand brushed against your thigh only to settle at your hips, and the way he moved with you, chest against yours and his eyes looking down at your painted lips. But you didn't remember it as a romantic memory, while Kol did - to you it was just how you and Kol first met. He cherished it, though, because he loved you.

But you didn't know.

"But if you like causing
trouble up in hotel rooms
And if you like having
secret little rendezvous
If you like to do the things
you know that we shouldn't do
Baby, I'm perfect, baby I'm
perfect for you."

Then he decided that it was about time he confesses how he feels. Bravely, he walked to you on a cold fall evening in Mystic Falls, adoring you in your lovely Y/F/C coat, your hair hidden by a beanie and a scarf wrapped around your neck to warm you up. Your hands were deeply in your pockets, and you were kicking the colorful fallen leaves with the tips of your shoes, enjoying the weather and the surroundings. Mystic Falls was beautiful no matter what the season was, but especially during fall, and winter, it had a special feeling in it.

Kol, with his hands in the pockets of his black trench coat, walked to you and flashed his famous, sexy grin at you. There was no one else outside, it was quite dark and late already, but he had asked for you to come to the popular park in the town because of something urgent he had to say.

There you stood, eye to eye and all Kol had to do was tell you that he had fallen for you and that he wanted to deepen your relationship. It was harder than you'd think, and so you stood both in silence for a couple of minutes until you asked Kol what was so important he had to drag you outside at this hour.

"Well, darling, I think I have fallen in love with you", he finally got out, then. "I am aware that I am not the kind of a man girl are lining up to marry, but I could make you happy. We could do so much, things that we shouldn't do, have secret little meetings, annoy my siblings by causing trouble and pranking them... I could be fun, love, please consider. I'd be perfect for you, just like I am convinced you are perfect for me", Kol said, a happy smile on his kissable lips. It warmed your heart, hearing those things, but you didn't agree. As much as you liked Kol, he was right, he wasn't the kind of guy girls want to marry. He wasn't a reliable guy to call your husband, he was someone to fool around with, to have sexual relationships with.

And because of that, you broke his heart by shaking your head and quietly leaving him in the brisk fall air, where cold tears slipped onto his cheeks, nearly freezing.

"I might never be the hand
you put your heart in
Or the arms that hold you
any time you want them
But that don't mean that
we can't live here in the moment
'Cause I can be the one you
love from time to time."

Just because you rejected him once, it didn't stop him from trying even harder. You and him carried the sexual bond between you, because if he could have even a bit of you, he took it. He wanted all of you, and having the possibility to sleep with you several times in one week, having the chance to see you so revealed and hot just for him, it was something Kol would never say no to.

But his siblings quickly noticed that something about their brother was different. It took them a while, but eventually it was seen by many that Kol Mikaelson had fallen in love. It started to be quite clear to you as well, and even though things were definitely more awkward between you now, you stayed strong and convinced yourself that it would pass, Kol wasn't one to fall in love for the rest of his life.

Except this time.

But you didn't realize that as you tried to protect yourself from getting hurt, you broke his heart, every day.

On one of the rare mornings on which you woke up next to him, since you usually left after sex, you pretended to be asleep when he began talking to you. His shirtless upper body was warm against your bare skin, and his long fingers caressed your soft hair and his lips moved against the top of your head, his voice smooth and silky in your ears when he spoke.

"Oh, love. I know I'm not the ideal boyfriend, that you think I'm not worth trusting and uh, you're absolutely right. But I do love you, and even though I might never be the one hold you whenever you want it, or the one to always be there for you, doesn't mean we shouldn't try. I have never felt this way about anyone, and I could be the one you love. Sometimes, at least", he chuckled, sadness evident in his voice. He seemed happy with you, though, and starting from that moment, you started to feel like he was after all the one.

But you didn't say a thing. You were hoping and believing that it would pass. It was just temporary, right?

No.

"And if you like midnight
driving with the windows down
And if you like going places
we can't even pronounce
If you like to do whatever
you've been dreaming about."

After weeks since you shattered Kol's heart by refusing to start dating, he tried again. He had picked himself up and after a preparing talk from Elijah, he felt confident and like he could finally win you to himself. He asked you to show up at the same place as last time, and that alone was enough to convince you of his intentions. This time, you weren't feeling so negative, though. This time, you felt like saying yes.

Why wouldn't you? Kol was handsome, and seemed to be serious about how he felt towards you. He cared about you, but he wasn't annoyingly protective and obsessed, though he did want you to be his, he wanted to call you his girlfriend, and you were seriously considering saying yes. You wanted to. Maybe you would.

"Y/N, darling. I want to take you out of Mystic Falls, to places I don't think you could even pronounce", Kol chuckled, "I want to show you how much I love you. We could go driving in the midnight, with the windows down, your favorite songs blasting from the speakers... I'd do it all, for you. I might not be someone you want to marry, but that's what you'd in fact want, I'd do it", making you smile.

And you didn't say anything, but you knew in your heart and mind that the answer was yes.

"Baby, you're perfect
So let's start right now."

The next day, you called Kol, asking for him to stop by your house. He was expecting for another hour of pure fun, but you weren't looking for that, for the first time in ages. As soon as he knocked on your door, you yanked it open and without hesitation of any kind, you smashed your lips onto his and threw your arms over his shoulders. You hugged him, pulled him tightly against you as your lips moved with his like they were used to, but this time it was different.

Before, it had been just pure lust, but now, it was fond and loving and the different was evident. Kol knew it was different, he could tell easily, and he was loving it. He dipped you down, tilting your body and eventually taking you onto his arms and stumbling inside. You didn't end up in the bedroom though, you actually got to know each other, talking on the couch and sometimes making out.

And you loved it.
