Andrew's POV
Me and Victoria arrive at the compound, walking into the main courtyard area. We see Hope with her friends, playing a game. They are all laughing and shouting, just enjoying life. That was the good thing of being back, we haven't taken anything for granted. Living every day like it might be our last.
"Dad. Mum. Over here." We turn and see Hayley stood outside a room, waving us over. We get to her and we both hug her tightly, not getting over having her here with us. "Sorry, we had a last-minute arrangement. Hope's friends are staying with us for a while, something happening at school."
"It's ok. We just like being here. It doesn't matter who is here, just enjoying breathing." Victoria says and we all laugh.
"Shit!" A voice shouts from the room we are stood outside of. "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO THAT! YOU BLOODY THING!" The voice gets louder, and then Klaus walks out, paint over him. "Don't even think about it, Little Wolf." He walks past her and vamps somewhere upstairs.
"Come on, I'll show you the pictures from the holiday." Hayley says and we walk into the room Klaus walked out of. There are canvases in a corner of the room, with paint on some shelves. There is a canvas in the middle of the room with a hole in it. Paint on the floor. Hayley chuckles.
"It's not funny. I just wasted perfect paint and a shirt." Klaus says, walking back in with a new shirt on. He picks up the canvas and puts it to the side of the room. He then turns around and looks at me and my wife. "Sorry, hello."
"Hello." I say.
"I was going to show them the holiday photos since they haven't seen them. You staying?" Hayley asks him.
"Of course he is. He should spend time with us more often since he is the reason we got brought back from the dead." I say, sitting down on the sofa, with Victoria following.
"Yeah, exactly. So come on, and suck it up. We don't want any excus- wait. What?" Hayley says, looking from me to Klaus then back to me. "What do you mean he is the reason we got brought back?"
"After we spoke with you, we spoke to Freya. She wanted to make sure everything had gone alright, and that we were ok. When she was doing this, she explained that Klaus asked her if she could bring back anyone else. And when she said it depended on how much magic it would take, he asked if she could bring back two Crescent wolves. Us." Victoria explained. Hayley's eyes widen in shock.
I stand back up and walk towards Klaus. "I realise that I wasn't fair to you when we met in the afterlife. I want to apologise for everything. You are a great man and father. Thank you for bringing us back. I'm sure there were many others who you would want to bring back, but you chose us. So, thank you." I put my hand out to him, which, after a few seconds, he takes, and we shake on it. I chuckle and pull him in for a hug, patting his back. He returns it. I step back, allowing Victoria to hug him and thank him too. Hayley is still stood there in shock. After a few more seconds, she shakes her head and smiles at me and her Mother.
"Here, take my phone and look through the pictures. There is quite a lot of them. When you finish with them, I'll show you the ones the others took on the group chat, and the videos too. I won't be long, I just need to talk to Klaus about something." She gives me her phone and puts it on the camera roll. I sit down on the sofa again, with Victoria sitting next to me, and we start looking at the pictures, as Hayley walks out of the room, with Klaus following.
