WHO: Landon Kirby and Hope Mikaelson
WHERE: Landon's
WHEN: Sunday morning
WARNINGS: TBD, probably not
SPOILERS? For Legacies, Season 2

Landon had known that Hope was upset with him, and he really couldn't blame her. He wasn't sure why he hadn't told her those things...maybe he just wanted to forget about all the weirdness that was going on back in Mystic Falls and just enjoy the much more peaceful life here. Or maybe...aw, who knew? He'd made a mistake and he was going to do everything in his power to fix things with her.

He was glad that she'd invited him to breakfast, just the two of them. Even if things weren't completely fixed between them, they could talk, and maybe get on the road to her forgiving him. Or not. He'd just take things slowly and let her lead the way.

At seven, he was dressed in jeans and a t-shirt, ready for her to arrive. He kept clasping and unclasping his hands, more nervous about this than he was willing to admit.

Landon paled just a little at that, but then very valiantly tried to laugh it off. After all, this conversation had certainly put him in a very good mood. “Nah, why should I be afraid of one of the most powerful vampires like, ever? I mean, I’ll just use my crazy awesome Phoenix powers against him,”

And die, if Elijah Mikaelson decides to kill him. He really didn’t think he would, though. The one time he’d actually met Elijah, he’d been really nice and left him a pretty awesome tip.

	It was pretty obvious when he was putting up a front, and she reached out to lay her hand on his arm. "Landon. You don't actually have to worry about him. For one, I could take him down. For another, he was the one that took me to the high school to take care of Connor's car. He told me himself last night that he likes you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

“He did?” He was a little surprised by that. Elijah had been all civility when he’d talked to him on the network, except for that one almost-threat. But he hadn’t been sure that he’d actually liked him. “I mean, as long as I don’t upset you or hurt you,” he clarified. “I’m not ever going to do that, though, if I can help it.”

He took her hand and squeezed it.

"I know you don't mean to," she murmured. That didn't mean it didn't happen, clearly. And as much as she tried to keep in mind that his intentions were different, it didn't stop things from hurting. Even still, she could handle herself. She'd hope her uncle knew that and would let them figure this whole thing out themselves without much interference.

"Are you going to come see my new apartment after the park?" Bonnie had given her some sleeping potions, but she'd like to try other methods first.

Landon looked down. He should have spoken more carefully. He had hurt her, whether he'd meant to or not, and he hated that. "I'm sorry," he said again, because it seemed the best and truest thing to say. "About...you know. Everything. Being an idiot and not telling you."

He raised an eyebrow when she asked if he was coming to her apartment.

"I mean, do you want me to?"

	"I know that, too," she looked up from their hands and gave him a small, sad smile. "We're going to move past it, okay? New mistakes next time." She couldn't pretend to know why he hadn't asked for his own yet, but she'd be damned if she was going back to the kids' floor for any extended period of time now. "Yea. Unless you don't?"

	"New mistakes next time. Can't promise I won't make those. But I'll try." And he squeezed her hand again. "I mean, yeah, I do. I'd love to see your new apartment." He'd loved the time they'd spent together before she'd moved out, but he completely understood why she had. He needed to, too, really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I know I'm 18 now—too old and too young to be planning naps—but after waffles and last night... " She could definitely see herself needing one once they'd concluded their research. The idea prompted a question to rise to the tip of her tongue, one she'd been curious about since the info dump, but she bit it back, flashing another quick smile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hey, naps can be awesome. Don't beat yourself up for wanting a nap." He grinned at her - he figured he'd probably want one too later. He looked like she wanted to say something for a moment, but then she didn't, and he bumped his shoulder against hers lightly. "Hey. What is it?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I didn't really sleep with everything that happened..." she admitted, shrugging. It had been eventful.

Catching her lower lip between her teeth, she tried to think of a better way to phrase it. There really wasn't one, though, so she just made a face and blurted it out. "Is there something wrong with me? It's just- the first thing anyone who knew who I was said was that you and Josie were about to have sex. Not that it's some end all, be all, but... if it's me, I'd like to know. I haven't dated many people so I wouldn't..."

"What?" He swallowed, his cheeks burning. "We didn't. Me and Josie. We...were going to, but it never happened."

Listening to her words, thinking it was about her...well, it caused his heart to ache and he hated that she was thinking that.

"No! It has nothing to do with you. I mean...I don't know why we haven't. I guess I just thought...you know, that you weren't ready or something." He ran a hand through his hair. "I mean, I want to, of course I want to. I just...didn't know if you did and I didn't want to push anything. I feel lucky enough just to be with you, you know?"

Of course, what else did she expect him to say, but it seemed like there was some truth to it at the same time. Or maybe it was just what she wanted to hear. "I don't know if I'm ready either. I mean, how do you know if you're ready to do something you've never done before?" Usually, she didn't even question it, just jumped right in with both feet. But this was different.

"But I do know that when it happens, I want it to be with you." Now it was her turn to blush. "There's no one else I'd trust the same. So. Um. That's that."

"I don't know? I mean...I've never done it before either soooo..." He let the word trail off, then squeezed her hand tightly.

"I want it to happen. I really want it to happen. And I want it to be with you, too. I've never felt for anyone like I feel for you." Not even Josie. The only reason he'd had feelings for her had been because Hope had been torn from his heart and left a big empty space that needed filling. As soon as he remembered her...well, maybe he hadn't been as obvious and obnoxious as SimuLandon but he felt the same way. He loved Hope. He felt like he'd been put on this earth to be with Hope. And there would never be anyone else who moved him like she did.

"So all you have to do is say the word, okay? Because I definitely want to."

"I don't want to put pressure on it. But now we both know where we are... Maybe we can just... let it happen? Test the waters until it feels right?" She wished she had her mom or any of her aunts here to help. Even just to talk to, because she could easily imagine any of them saying she'd just know when she was ready.

Slowly, she stroked her thumb over his knuckles, tempted to watch that instead of meeting his eyes. "I love you so much. I want to share everything with you. And I want you to be happy. I want both of us to be happy."

"So do I. And I am happy. Okay? I am happy. You make me happy. I'm crazy about you and I want to, you know, have sex with you, but I'm happy just being with you like this, too. So your idea? I think it's good. Let's just...let it happen. When the time's right, we'll know. I hope."

He'd never really had anyone but Rafael to talk about things like this with, but now he had Hope. And they could talk about it, couldn't they? After all, they shouldn't do it if they couldn't even talk about it.

"I can go to a pharmacy and get some stuff so we're prepared. And then...whenever it happens, it happens."

He looked down at their hands, then looked over and met her eyes. "And no more secrets from me. I promise. From now on, everything I know, you know too."

"You don't have to go alone. Unless that would make things weird if I came with you..." She saw it as a responsibility they both had, besides, they were adults now, right? In a committed relationship. Buying stuff wasn't weird.

Sometimes the love she had for him felt like crashing waves, rising up and taking her over out of nowhere whenever he was so perfectly... Landon. Fighting a smile, she stepped closer. "I'm going to kiss you now," she murmured before making good on her word, her free hand rising up to hold his face. They might not have been at the park yet, but what could she say? She was a rule breaker.

"I mean yeah, sure, you can come with me." If it was weird to buy condoms together then they probably shouldn't be having sex. "I don't think it would make things weird. I mean, it shouldn't be weird, right?"

He blushed and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer to him as he returned her kiss with every bit as much love as she'd put into it. There wasn't any flying yet...but maybe that was because he knew in the back of his mind that he'd rather be in the park than on the street for that.

Coming up for air, he gave her a bit of a goofy grin.

"You can kiss me whenever you want. Whenever."

She shook her head; not weird. "There's different kinds, right? We could get a few to start." It would be fun for them to learn what felt best.

Stepping close, she lost herself in the kiss, losing all track of time and place for a moment. She was just as winded when they pulled apart but she still swayed into him instinctually seeking more.

"Yea? Same. Definitely the same."

"Yeah, lots of different kinds, I think. And that's a good idea. I mean, try all of them until we find what works best for us?"

That would mean having a lot of sex too, but he definitely wasn't against that. He had a feeling that once they started it would be impossible to stop.

He kissed her again, lightly, then reluctantly pulled back, leaning his forehead against hers.

"I want to keep doing this all day. But maybe we should get waffles first? I'm also starving."
