Klaus found himelf liking this timeline so much better than the others.

None of the Hargreeves siblings has powers in this timeline. Which meant no more ghosts, no more screaming. Sobriety was easier and Klaus hadn't done drugs in months. Sure he still had PTSD with the odd night terror, but even those seemed easier.

Especially after meeting you.

You'd come to his tarot reading business with some friends months ago. You'd found Klaus to be rather charming, if a little ditzy. The two of you fell in love over coffee and everything changed. Klaus smiled brighter and seemed more inclined to live. You two shared an apartment and owned a fat orange cat. Things were perfect.

Alison's daughter Claire was turning thirteen, and all the siblings were uniting for the party. Klaus asked if he could 'bring his boyfriend', and Alison had been too shocked to say no. Most of the siblings had just assumed Klaus was still using. Honestly, only Diego and Five had sort of kept in touch.

You sat Claire's gift on the table with the others, trying to ignore the stares from the Hargreeves siblings. Klaus smiled nervously, "Everyone, this is my boyfriend."
