Hi guys, this is my first story and I hope its OK. Basically Sage was in the same village as Finn when he was human and she is Holly's cousin. Kol is 18, Klaus is 22, Finn is 24, Elijah is 23, Rebekah is 16 and Henrick is 13. Please let me know what you think! I dont own anything, only Holly.

The night was warm and full of life as people celebrated the birthday of a local girl, Holly, she had Dark brown hair and Hazel eyes. Her hair danced in the wind as she ran into the forest where she was meeting her lover...

Kol waited behind the tree impatiently as he waited for her. He hated the fact her couldn't seem to go a day without seeing her, touching her. Holly seemed to be the light in the darkness, he watched her as she dodged the local boys asking her to dance his anger rose but he knew they could never come out as lovers, their parents hated each other. They have loved each other since they were 15, but that didn't matter to Mikael or Eric, if they were to find out she'd be sent off and him beat. He met her gaze and caught himself been lost in her eyes and she made her way towards him.

Holly's P.O.V

Kol. that was the only thought on my mind as I danced with William around the fire. I could hear Rebekah laughing at something Elijah said, the fire crackling, Henrick and Nik arguing, I could hear everything but what William was yapping on about. I saw Bree smirk at me, she knew I didn't like William, She knew about my love for Kol. My mother taught me to listen because I am a woman and men like pretty women with no opinions. Kol didn't though, he liked it when I would tell him whats what, he is different. This bloody party was just so William could "woo" me, they don't understand I don't want him! I want Kol! He was my first and will be my last, I will do anything for us, even if it meant me being disowned. Sage was the only one that understood, my beloved cousin deserved so much more than what was been offered. My uncle think he owns her, he hates her because of what she is... What my family are, witches. All those thoughts disappear as i meet his hazel eyes and quickly make my way over to him

Kol's P.O.V

I saw her practically run to me, I made my way out from behind the tree and I held my arms open just in time to catch her. I spun her around and kissed her hair as she pecked my neck.

"Well, I guess that's a good sign, Birthday Girl" I whispered in her ear. I felt her shiver and smile into my neck, she pulled back and looked into my eyes.

"Take it as you will, but I'm still expecting a present!" She replied as she smirked up at me.

"Of course you're, its not every day my love turns 18" I quietly tell her. I reach into my pocket and pull out the silver locket that the blacksmith had made for me, on the back it said "I love you -Kol" She once told me that she wanted one for the pictures Nik draws her, she tells me how there will be one of her and Sage and another with me. "Well close your eyes then love" I tell her. She does as I have asked and I press myself against her back and clasp the necklace around her neck.

"So, can I open them now?" she asks eagerly.

"Go on then love, tell me what you think." I reply. I watch as she glances down and her hand gingerly touch the locket. Her eyes widen and she looks at me open mouthed and I cant help but grin at her.

"Kol, I... I... Thank you. I love it" She releases the locket and launches into my arms, she kisses me full on the mouth and I get lost in her as usual.

"Put me down love, you don't want me to disappear just yet, do you? I mean we don't have long before someone interrupts us." I say as I rub my nose up her neck making her shiver.

"No, we don't so get on with it" She says in my ear making me shiver, and I do I take her to my fathers barn and we make love until the morning.
