It's been a whole month since Klaus returned and the kiss that has left Caroline feeling incomplete. Just over three weeks since Tyler told Caroline about Hayley being pregnant with Klaus' child and three weeks of silenced disgust from all her friends - minus Stefan - over her and Klaus.
Lying back in the grass and leaves, where she and Klaus made passionate love for the first time, Caroline let the tears of emptiness, confusion and sadness fall helplessly from her closed eyes. The hate she once felt for herself over her feelings for Klaus had vanished but has been replaced with an anger for herself for not accepting him sooner.
When Tyler first told her about Klaus and Hayley, she had laughed right in his face; not believing his words for a second. When he proved it to her, she cried. Angry tears, annoyed tears, disbelieving tears, confused tears, sad tears, betrayed tears, and lost tears.
She knew she shouldn't be mad about it, he wasn't hers when it happened, but she thought, well more hoped, that he would have at least told her himself. She thought it was a sign. A sign that they weren't meant to be, and that their connection was just physical. But if that was the case then there wouldn't be a pain in her chest. In her heart. And she wouldn't be missing him, and longing for him. She wouldn't care.
But she does.
It's there.
She just doesn't know what to do with it.
All of her friends have turned their backs on her. All of them are disgusted over what she did. They've stopped talking to her, Bonnie and Elena moved dorms, Jeremy and Matt scoff and look at her like she has the worlds worst deceases - which is kind of ironic really, as Jeremy and Kol became good friends for a while and Matt had a little summer fling with Rebekah - and Damon's still Damon, just a few more harsh words. Stefan is the only one who hasn't treated her any differently.
She expected it though. They don't understand. And that's okay. She doesn't understand it either.
While thinking all this, Caroline's tears got heavier as they trailed down the sides of her cheeks.
The lack of control she has over her own feelings frustrates her to no end. The hopelessness that settles over her makes her feel weak, and after becoming a vampire, weak is not a word that she wants described for herself.
Annoying herself with her tears, she furiously rubs at her face, trying erase the evidence of her weakness: her tears.
Releasing a loud sobbed-like scream as the tears keep on flowing, she races off the ground and begins a chase of no direction round the woods, ignoring her blurred vision.
I am no longer weak. I am no longer push-over girly little Caroline. I am strong. I am fearless. She inwardly chanted to herself, forcing herself to believe the words that she is currently doubting.
Abruptly stopping at the tree Klaus once had her pinned up against, she collapsed. Sobbing uncontrollably over her the pain that is spreading through her heart, the pain that Klaus himself has created.
"Why did he have to leave me? Why did he have to sleep with Hayley? Why does he make me feel this way? Why did he take part of my heart without me knowing? Why won't he give it back?" She gasped out into the air, like he could hear her. Like it would answer her. "When did this even happen? When did I become such a mess?"
The sudden feeling of her throat being uncomfortably dry, caused Caroline to erupt in a fit of coughs. When blood started to splutter from her mouth, Caroline knew that something wasn't right.
Clutching her stomach in pain, she tried her hardest to concentrate on something as her eye sight was failing her.
A Bird. A Dove to be exact, caught her eye.
Focus Caroline, focus.
Trying with all her might, to stop coughing and stop the blood from leaving her and to remain eye-contact with the dove, one last shot of pain with a loud and agonizing roar, Carolines hot and sweaty body, went cold and limp. The darkness swallowing her whole.
The chirp of the dove was the last thing she remembered.

When Caroline awoke, the sun was rising in beautiful mixes of yellows, oranges, reds, purples and pinks. Never had she seen the sun so early in the morning, and the sight held so much beauty that it took her breath away. While admiring her view, Caroline failed to notice her state of undress, until a light breeze skimmed her naked body. Shivering at the unexpected chill, memories from the night before re-entered her mind.
Her break-down because of the over-load of her emotions. The pain of longing for Klaus. The tears of different emotions that she couldn't understand and then the pain in her stomach along with the black-out.
Wait a second.
Why am I naked? She thought, ransacking her brain for an explanation. "What happened after I passed out? Think Forbes, Think." She wondered aloud, as she covered herself with leaves and her arms, scanning the area, making sure no-one was around.
She remembers feeling like she was flying. Feeling like the wind was gliding across her skin in the most relaxing ways. She felt free.
Almost like a bird...
A loud gasp filled the air.
The dove was the last thing she saw. Could it be that she...?
No.
Absolutely not.
There is no way possible that she did.
She did not turn into a freaking bird!
"Caroline Forbes get your head out the gutter right now! This is crazy! This is not possible!" Feeling herself panicking, she zoomed out the woods as fast as she possibly could, trying her hardest not to be caught, she made it to her house faster than she thought she could.
Without knowing what she was doing, the house phone was already in her hand by her ear waiting for someone on the receiving end to answer.
"Hello?" Came the deep voice.
"I really need your help." She breathed, in a panicked tone.
