First Fanfic…. So please don't judge too harshly, Thank you

Caroline and her friends have had 3 months of peace in Mystic Falls. She eventually got bored of the town and wanted to leave. She went through her phone and played his message all over again…

"Caroline, I'm standing in one of my favorite places in the world. Surrounded by food, music, art, culture; and all I can think about is how much I want to show it to you. Maybe one day you'll let me.

The next morning she told all her friends that she was leaving to New Orleans and no one can stop her. They were all worried, but decided to let her go have a little fun. She told her mom and her mom was mad at her, but understood and just wanted her daughter happy. It was a 14 hour drive to New Orleans and Caroline couldn't wait to get there. She about Hayley and the baby and even though she was mad, she and Klaus were not even together so she couldn't judge. As she got to New Orleans, she checked into a hotel and went sight seeing. She heard that it was a city full of the supernatural and she was interested. As she got to a corner, she noticed a bar called Rousseau's and walked in and instantly knew there were vampires there but they didn't realize her. She walked up to the bar and tried to compel the bartender.

"You know you could of just asked and would of happily given you," said the girl. Caroline was so confused until she realized the vervain bracelet on her wrist.

"You know about vampires", asked Caroline. The girl nodded her head and reached her hand out, " I'm Camille , but you can call me Cami." Caroline reached out and shook her hand, "hi Cami, I'm Caroline."

Cami's eyes widen and curious has to why she's heard that name before. Caroline noticing, took her hand away and gave her a look. "What?" she asked. Cami snapped out of it and answered, "I'm really sorry, but that name sounds so familiar. " Cami figured it out right when Carolines eyes came into focus and she saw those green/blue eyes that Klaus told her about. She was happy that someone made him feel human and by the look of it, he picked the right girl. "By any chance, do you know Klaus Mikaelson", asked Cami. Caroline was shocked that this girl knew her. Was he talking about her to other people? Did he replace her with this human girl? So many questions went to her head that she forgot to answer. "Yes, I do, but he doesn't know i'm here. How do you know him exactly." "Believe it or not, I'm his therapist," she let out a laugh, followed by Caroline. "So I take it your also a psychology major", asked Caroline. Cami nodded.

Out of nowhere, a tall, handsome African American walked in and Caroline instantly knew he was a vampire. Marcel walked up to the blonde vampire that his guys told him about and was annoyed by the fact that she didn't go to him first since he his the king. " Hey Cami, whose this," Marcel asked. " Marcel, meet Caroline, Caroline meet Marcel." Caroline got off the stool and went to shake his hand, " hi marcel, its nice to meet you." " Likewise, Miss Caroline. I take it your new because all the vampires that come here, go through me first. I'm the king of this city," Marcel explained. Caroline just stared at him and was about to ask about Klaus until she saw Cami with eyes that said don't trust him. Caroline began to talk, "I'm really sorry, I had no idea, I was just exploring the city and walked into this bar. Forgive me." Caroline was just playing along until he left. She really didn't care about who he was, she just wanted to find Klaus. Marcel started to talk, until one of his vampires whispered into his ear. His eyes got wider and realization dawned on him. This was the Caroline Forbes. He now has leverage against Klaus. Caroline knew what the vampire said and was actually disappointed and wanted to get out of there very fast.

"So", started Marcel, "you are that Caroline. I must say you are pretty in person. Caroline was actually afraid, she quickly hid her fear, "I guess Klaus talks about me that often, huh." Marcel nodded. "You have just made my night, dear, I was about to surrender to him, because he wants to take my place as king, but now.." Caroline froze and tried to run, but his vamp speed was much faster and he gripped her arm very tightly, "I can use you as leverage and control my city once again. Let's go darling." Caroline tried to fight back, but he snapped her neck and placed her body in the car.
