Chapter One

I looked around the Grill searching for any familiar faces around the room. My eyes settled on Elena and Damon playing pool in the back corner. Damon's arms wrapped around Elena's waist helping her to line up the shot while kissing the side of her neck as she laughed. While I still think that Stefan is the better of the two brothers it is nice to see Elena so happy, and as long as he does not hurt her I guess I will have to get used to the two of them.

I approach the bar and Matt is waiting for me with a smile, vodka slime and an order of onion rings. While I may not need food to survive anymore I sure am planning to hold onto my human tendencies as long as possible. I smile as I think of someone else who likes those human traits I have fought to hold on. I know that my friends can never know of my current relationship, they would never forgive me for sleeping with the enemy; it is easier to hide now that he has left Mystic Falls but I would not trade what we have for anything. Who would have thought that the Original Hybrid would be the one to make my undead heart come back to life...

1 Year Ago

I looked up as a pulled into the driveway of the Mikaelson Mansion; once again I was there to be the blonde distraction to keep Klaus unaware of their plans against him. I don't really know why I go along with these plans anymore, sure it would be nice to go back to the quiet life we had before all this supernatural crap started happening, but I love being a vampire. And if I am honest with myself being forced to spend time with Klaus isn't so bad. He is easy on the eyes and that accent is enough to make any girl swoon. The way he says "Love" instead of my name and those blue eyes I can lost in... But he is still a very dangerous man. Ok he has saved my life multiple times, and yes he has hurt Elena and Aunt Jenna and Tyler's Mom but he never hurts me.

I shake my head from these thoughts as I approach the front door. I reach a hand out and tentatively knock on the door, not sure if I want him to be here or not. I am about to turn and leave as the door opens, and I am greeted with the sight of Klaus in nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist.

"Hello Love, what brings you to my door this afternoon?" he asks with his trademark smirk.

"Hi, I was hoping that you could help with a project for school, I have to write a paper on the Black Death, and seeing as you lived through it and probably added to the body count I thought you could help me." I replied trying my best not to look at his naked chest, still dripping wet from the shower. His abs perfectly defined and the treasure trail leading from his stomach down underneath the towel.

"I suppose I could give you hand, please come in I will just run upstairs and get dressed. I will meet you in the drawing room." He said as he flashed upstairs and into his room.

I entered the drawing room and went right to the bar; I poured myself a glass of whisky and downed it. I hate the burn as it goes down my throat, but I needed something to help regain composure after being so close to a half naked Klaus.

I heard Klaus come back to the room and take a seat on the couch. I could feel his eyes on my back as I poured myself another drink and one for him.

"Please help yourself to the whisky" he says as I turn to hand him a tumbler.

I grab a seat on the couch next him, I go to reach for my school bag, as I feel Klaus's hand on my arm.

"Let's stop pretending that you are here for help with school, I know that your little group of friends are up to something and sending you to distract me. Lucky for you, I quite enjoy spending time with you. So let's make a deal. Instead of you coming and making up excuses for why you are here, you let me take you out for a date. Show you how a lady should be treated."Klaus says as he grabs my hand looking into my eyes.

"Klaus, that is not a good idea. You know that we will never work, you are the original hybrid and I am a baby vampire. Not to mention that you keep trying to kill all my friends."

"Caroline, let me remind you that you are here so your friends can plot a way to end my existence. All I am asking for is for a change of scenery for your designated distraction time."

"Fine, but if we are doing this we are going outside of Mystic Falls. I refuse to have the whole town talking about this! And.. And... Nothing over the top, you cannot buy me!" I respond turning away from him.

"Whatever you say Love, Shall we?" He asked as he held out his hand for me.

He led me out to the garage and opened the door to his shiny black BMW SUV. As I slid into the seat I couldn't help but notice that the car smelt like him, it has his woodsy smell. He slid in the driver's seat and pulled out of the driveway and onto the highway. He turned on the radio to play some classical music softly. He continued to drive until we were a few miles out of town, he pulled off into what looked like a farm, I have to admit my interest was piqued.
