Lounge Outfit}


"I can't believe you talked me into wearing my lounge dress again." Christy said to her husband, Klaus.

"Yeah, it's my favorite." Klaus said.

Klaus and Christy exchange soft chuckles with each other and gently leans on the granite railing.

"You should know that there's a few beautiful woman that are attractive to me." Klaus said.

Christy looks at Klaus, and he looks at her with a playfully teasing grin.

"Beautiful, huh?" Christy said with a playfully smile.

"Not as beautiful as you are." Klaus said.

Christy smiles at him, and Klaus plants a kiss on her cheek.

⚜️⚜️

In the lounge room, Klaus slowly walks inside and sees the few beautiful women that he spoke of.

"Hello, Klaus." One of the woman greeted him. "Come sit with us."

"I'm sorry, but I can't. I'm married." Klaus said.

"It's just wine and cheese." The woman said with a small smile as she leads Klaus over to the three seat sofa and they both sits down.

"So, how long have you women known my wife, Christy?" Klaus asked, eating a piece of cheese.

"We've known her since she was a child." The same woman said. "I'm Aetna by the way."

"Aetna? It's a cute name." Klaus said.

"And you're Klaus Mikaelson." Aetna said to him, taking a swig of her wine. "Such a handsome man you are."

Klaus chuckles softly to himself. "Thanks. I've visited her sometimes with my daughters."

"Hope you're having fun." Christy said.

Klaus looks at Christy and gets up to his feet. "Christy? I was just sitting here, snacking. But I talked into it."

"Hi, Christiana." Aetna greeted her with a small smile.

"Hi, Aetna." Christy greeted her with a small smile. And gives Klaus her "wifey" look by squinting her eyes at him as she walks away.

"Christy?" Klaus said and folds his arms. "Oh, bloody hell."

Aetna and the few woman giggles softly to themselves, snacking on wine and cheese.

That afternoon, In Christy's bedchamber, Christy has changed into some clothes.

{Christy's Outfit}


"I know you're there, Niklaus." Christy said to her husband.

Klaus gently wraps his arms around her waist and plants a kiss on her cheek. "You said my full name, Love. Am I in trouble?"

"I don't know." Christy said to her husband, turning around to look at him, gently wrapping her arms around his neck. "Are you in trouble?"

"Well, you said my full name, and by the way, Aetna talked me into it." Klaus said.

"I've known Aetna since I was a preteen. I told you that I was my parent's little daughter." Christy said.

"You know you're the woman for me." Klaus said with a small smile.

"You really think flattery will get you out of trouble?" Christy asked her husband.

"Is it working?" Klaus asked with a small smile.

Christy small smiles and chuckles softly to herself. Klaus and Christy kisses each other and gently pulls away from the kiss.

"And what's with this . . ." Klaus said, gently tugging on her goggle beanie.
". . ." what are you up to Little Enchantress?"

"I used to sneak around Mount Orasani and steal stuff." Christy said. "But mainly, I did it just to get myself in trouble with my parents."

"You're mischievous." Klaus said.

"I can be." Christy said.

"What do you steal?" Klaus asked.

"Anything." Christy said.

"Such as?" Klaus asked.

"Stuff." Christy said.

Klaus gives her a look. "You're really not gonna tell me?" He asked her.

"Nope." Christy said with a small smile. "But I'm good with stealthy. Do you want to come along with me?" and she playfully teases him. "Or do you want to remain here with Aetna and her little besties and snack on wine and cheese?"

Klaus small smiles at her. "I'll accompany you."

"Great." Christy said, and walks away.

And Klaus follows her.

⚜️⚜️

In the beige hallway, Klaus and Christy are slowly wandering around.

"Are you sure you know what you're doing, Love?" Klaus asked his wife.

"Yeah, sure I do. I know Mount Orasani by heart." Christy replied, and stopped walking and hides behind a wall, peeking over the wall to see two Orasani guardsmen at the vault door.

"A vault?" Klaus said. "What's inside the vault?"

"Jewels and other stuff." Christy said.

Klaus looks at Christy as he figured it out what's she's up to. "So, you're gonna steal some of Orasani's jewels?"

"I'll put it back, don't worry." Christy said.

"You're a mischievous woman, aren't you, Christiana?" Klaus asks his wife, with a grin.

"Yep, I am." Christy replied.

"How are you gonna get pass the guardsmen?" Klaus asked Christy.

"I'll figure something out." Christy said to her husband and she slowly walks up to the two Orasani male guardsmen. "Hi, guys."

"Hello, Christy." The first male Orasani guardsman greeted her with a small smile.

"What is it that you want?" The second male Orasani guardsman asked.

"It's Caicos. He needs some assistance with his new potions. And trust me, the potions takes a little while to be correctly." Christy said to them.

The two Orasani guardsman exchange looks at each other, pondering to believe her or not.

"Oh, gosh, really? Caicos is an elderly man and he really works pretty hard with his potions and whatever things he makes or creates in his lab. I don't want him to faint because he's been working so hard, you know. At least, you guys can bring him some snack food or something to amp up his strength." Christy said to them.

"Alright, we'll be back." The Orasani guardsman said and walks away with the other Orasani guardsman walks after him.

"Take your time." Christy said.

Klaus smirks to himself gently leaning sideways on the wall. And he walks up her.

"I'm impressed, Love. Using Caicos elderly." Klaus said.

"Caicos knows I love him." Christy said to her husband with a small smile.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. She looks at the vault door, and makes her eyes glow blue, holding up her hand at the door lock, and unlocks it with her magic.

The vault door slowly opens, revealing jewels, gems, crystals, and other ancient treasures.

"Whoa." Klaus said, astonished. "Didn't know this was here."

"Yep." Christy said, slowly walks inside the vault and picks up a pink gem in her hand.

"Christiana?" Ames said.

"Oh, shit." Christy said.

And Klaus gently grabs Christy in a headlock as Ames and the two Orasani guardsmen walks inside.

"Christy?" Ames said to his daughter.

"Not to worry, Ames. She was trying to steal this . . ." Klaus said, showing his father-in-law the pink gem.

Christy gasps in shock. And Klaus looks at his wife with a sly cunning look on his face.

"Klaus was my accomplice." Christy said.

Klaus looks at Christy, and she gives him a cunning small smile back at him.

Klaus tosses the pink gem at Ames, and he catches it in his hands.

"Come along with me." Ames said with a small smile.

Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other as they walks out of the vault.

"Asshole." Christy said.

"Love you too." Klaus said.

⚜️⚜️

Ames, Klaus and Christy are in the main room. And Ames is looking at the pink gem in his hand.

"When Christy was a preteen, she had good stealthy and thievery skills. She would often use Caicos elderly or his potions as a distraction. But Nadia and I known that she was just doing it to get herself in trouble." Ames said.

"But why?" Klaus asked.

"Christiana wanted to be more than her parents daughter." Nadia said, slowly walks into the main room. "Isn't that correct, Christy?"

"Yes, Mom." Christy said with a small smile.

Ames and Nadia exchange small smiles at each other.

"I was gonna give it back." Christy said.

"We know." Ames and Nadia said in unison with a small smile.

Ames, Nadia, Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

That evening, Christy is sitting at the round bar counter with her bottle of cider.

Klaus sits down beside her at the bar counter with his bottle of bourbon. "You do have mischievousness within you, Christy."

"Yeah, I do." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"You told me that everyone here at Mount Orasani knows that you're the daughter of Ames and Nadia. But you trained to become a warrior and sometimes used your magic." Klaus said.

"And now, I have a extraordinary reputation." Christy said to her husband. "I just want our daughters to be proud of me."

"Luna and Trinity are proud of you." Klaus said to his wife. "And so am I."

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. He plants a kiss on her cheek, causing them both to small smile at each other again.

That night, Klaus and Christy teleports in the courtyard. Maximus and Gia, along with Mathias and Freya are sitting at the table.

"Hey, guys." Maximus greeted both Klaus and Christy.

"Hey, Max." Christy said. She and Max fist bump each other. "What are you guys go to?"

"Lounging around." Gia said.

"Luna, Trinity and Nikole are sleepover with Keelin at the Crescent Home." Mathias said.

"Alright." Christy said.

"Beanie goggles, huh?" Maximus said to Christy in his British accent. "You've been playfully messing around with the vault?"

"You know of the vault, Max?" Klaus asked Max.

"Yeah, when Christy and I were preteens, I used to accompany her to the vault whenever she wanted to mischievously mess around with it so, she can get in trouble with her parents." Maximus told Klaus.

Klaus becomes slightly annoyed, which Christy notices.

"Okay, We'll see you guys around." Gia said.

"Alright, love you, Gia." Christy said.

"Love you too, Christy." Gia said back to her.

Maximus and Gia walks away.

"I'm gonna go and video chat Nikole." Mathias said, walking away.

"I need a drink." Freya said, walking away.

Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other. And he walks away.

"Maximus and I have ancient chemistry in between us, Niklaus." Christy said to her husband.

Klaus stopped walking and looks at Christy. "I know."

"Max and I have known each other since we were little kids. We grew up together. And the ancient chemistry won't fade away." Christy said, slowly walks up to him.

"Christiana?" Klaus said.

"I saw how slightly annoyed you became when Max told you that he and I visited the vault as preteens." Christy said.

"I'm sorry for my slightly annoyance." Klaus apologized. "I shouldn't have, but..." he trailed off.

"... But it's how you are, I get it." Christy said, gently cupping his face with her hands. "I do, Niklaus."

Klaus small smiles to himself. "So I was in trouble." and he gently wraps his arms around her waist, holding her close to him.

"When are you not in trouble?" Christy asked him.

"You always say my full name." Klaus said to her.

Klaus and Christy exchange playfully chuckles with each other and they kiss, passionately.
