Hello, my darlings! I have to say that it's been a while since I updated 'Very Subtle' and I'm sorry about that, but I'm in the middle of my exams and I seriously couldn't focus on writing anything. My mind was unable to come up with great scenarios for the hotness that I promised you to write in chapter 21, but...the long awaited Klaroline scene in 5x11 had me reeling and I just needed to write about it!
I watched it a few days ago and I was left wanting more...so, my dirty mind has decided to come up with the smutty scene to continue the teasingly short moment that was showed on TV. It was so good to finally have them hook up, but I think that we all deserve to read a full, explicit version of that scandalous sex!
Initially I wanted this chapter to have all the goods, but I decided to really focus first on the actual thoughts that lead them to more...I wanted to explain what made Caroline finally give in. And, I don't have that much free time with the chemistry exam coming up in a couple of days so I thought this would be better than nothing.
So...enough rambling for now. And have at it! ;)
"I want your confession..." Klaus told Caroline as he stopped walking through the woods, turning to face her. He wanted to enjoy the vision of her angelic face glowing in the warm sunlight for as long as possible, considering the fact that it had been a while since he had seen her. His memory hadn't done her justice because even though he hadn't stopped thinking about her, envisioning Caroline in more circumstances than one, the reality was much better.
It was quite a sight to behold. Her beauty was beyond breathtaking and Klaus smiled as he watched her. The soft rays of sunlight that streamed through the branches of the trees were making her glow even brighter. The sun was caressing her face, every light blonde lock of her hair shining and, then there was that light that radiated from within her, the dazzling smile that had been present on her lips for the most part since she had seen Klaus earlier.
"My...confession? I didn't do anything. Confession about what?" Caroline smiled and shook her head as she watched a full on dimpled grin spread on Klaus' lush lips. Even though she hated to admit it, it was actually good to see him, because...things around town hadn't been the same without him. Not wanting to even think about what it meant to having actually missed him, Caroline tried to dismiss the idea as quickly as possible. She had no luck in pushing the unwanted thoughts in the back of her mind, though, because what Klaus had to say made it pretty damn impossible.
"Me." Klaus answered her question, a small smile still playing at his lips as he watched Caroline's eyes soften a bit, the amused smile slipping away. She was taken aback by the simple word, because it implied so many things, so many complicated things that she had long since banned from her thoughts.
Caroline simply stood there, her eyes watching the hybrid that she had tried hard not to think about, the man that had left town, but not under the same circumstances as Tyler had. Her thoughts drifted back to the night of her graduation when they had last met and she had to admit that their encounter had left her rattled, that every single day she kept hearing his words swirl around in her brain. Klaus' husky, accented voice had been haunting her even in her dreams...his promise still lingering in her mind.
I intend to be your last...however long it takes.
Admittedly, Caroline had tried her best to keep herself busy and not have to think about Klaus every two seconds. Considering the drama that they had been through with 'professor Creepy' and Katherine, she hadn't had time to sit down and truly ponder over things. And that meant that she hadn't even had time to sort through her thoughts and feelings to even say that she had made a decision about her future and Klaus. She had tried so hard to simply fall into a human routine and go to college like she had planned since she was a sophomore, party hard and enjoy the freedom that came with all of it. Caroline wanted to have the best time with her two best friends since kinder-garden, but, as always drama took over and came in like a hurricane, sweeping everything out from under her feet.
So, it was safe to say that she had not allowed herself to even think about the whole Klaus drama. She hadn't thought that she'd be seeing him like this again, but it was nice...it was something that she had needed even if she hadn't known it. Klaus seemed to have this amazing ability to make her smile, although she didn't know when that had happened exactly.
It was weird to see him there, but she couldn't help but smile. If she really thought about it, ever since she had met Klaus in the woods earlier, she couldn't hide the sincere smile that seemed to be permanently etched on her lips. There was something about him that made her feel good around him, happy, even. And the way that he watched her, the dimpled, sincere smile that told her just how much he loved seeing her, the way that he followed her through the woods and let go of his revenge on Katherine had stirred something in her.
Even before, when he was supposed to be the bad guy, the enemy, to her, he had never been any of those things. Although he appeared evil and cruel to the others, he had always showed another, more human side to Caroline. Klaus, the Original hybrid, the so called monster had saved her life numerous times and had made it clear since the beginning that he 'fancied' her. He had gotten under her skin with his charm, witty personality and the constant show of affection towards her. Caroline had never felt like he had made her feel. Klaus was infuriating and drove her completely crazy at times, but he was also the one that put her first every time, that saved her and that treated her like a mature, beautiful woman.
Clearly she had zoned out a bit because when she focused back on the Original, his expression had changed and his features were schooled into that mask of indifference that she couldn't read. He always tried to do that before, but now she saw something different in his eyes and he was about to explain it to her.
"As soon as we're done here, I'm gonna walk away. And I'm never coming back. You'll never again have to look me in the eye and cover our connection with hostility and revulsion. You'll never have to loathe the darkest parts of you that care for me in spite of all I've done. I will be gone, and you will be free..."
Klaus stepped closer to her, just one small step as he looked into her deep blue eyes, his own burning passionately and Caroline was, again, struck by the sincerity evident in his voice. She watched Klaus as he spoke, his words slowly sinking in and she was stunned, not knowing what to do or say...her mind was in complete overload. It was just too much. She couldn't think about the implications of his words. Klaus paused for a second, his gaze falling to the ground as he seemed to struggle with himself.
"I just...want you to be honest with me." He confessed, his eyes meeting hers again, the blue hues blazing, making Caroline's breath hitch as she saw the raw emotions hidden in them. She didn't know what to say, how to react to what he had told her because she was completely taken aback and she was still trying to process everything that he had thrown at her. It was too much to take in. And, as she had already told him when he asked her if she would give him the same choice as she had given Tyler, he couldn't just come all the way to Mystic Falls and do this to her. Klaus couldn't put her in a situation like that, drop this on her and not expect her to be completely taken aback.
It was not something that she could just decide on the spot, it was a big decision, a huge confession that he was asking of her and Caroline was certainly not ready to make it. She hadn't had time to think about it, not even a bit and she didn't even know what she felt for him, because now that she really was honest with herself, she knew that she did feel something for him, she had clearly missed him more than she would've thought, but it was hard to have to come up with a decision on the spot...
Her life had been constantly changing and all the Elena drama, the college drama, the Tyler thing, the Katherine thing and every damn stupid situation that had happened to her were just too much. She hadn't been able to think about any of the Klaus drama...
All that she had wanted since the summer had started was to have a normal college experience, to try and live as normally as they could – being functional vampires in college. Caroline had wanted a drama free life for at least a bit, to have time to enjoy the normal things, to have a normal life like she had mapped out since she was sixteen. She was supposed to go to high-school and be a cheerleader, then go off to college and party and find something that she liked, something to do with her life. But nothing had turned out as she had thought it would.
Now, she was a vampire, she had lost her father and every single day was filled with drama. It was nothing like she would've thought, but she couldn't complain because there were perks to it...Still, it was times like these when she'd want to just leave and be unpredictable for once, leave all the drama behind and do what she wanted for once, what she had wanted for a while now. Seeing as Klaus was still waiting for an answer, she sighed and decided to give it to him...no filter.
"I'm in college...I'm building a life for myself. I have plans and a future and things that I want and none of those things involve you, ok?! None of them." Caroline rambled, closing her eyes as she watched the change in Klaus' blue ones. It was harsh to say things like that to him, but it was somewhat true, because those had been her plans. She had wanted to build a life for herself, to have a career and succeed on her own. Caroline Forbes was a strong woman that didn't accept failure and she wanted to prove herself, to feel that she was an equal to him, that she was mature and had learned a few things. She wanted to show everyone that the baby vampire was not naive, shallow and bitchy little Caroline anymore. She was beautiful, strong and full of light...
"I see..." Klaus muttered, his voice low as he averted his gaze, lowering his head. Caroline saw that, but cut him off immediately, wanting to finish her rambling before he could draw the wrong conclusions.
"No, you don't, because, yes, I cover our connection with hostility because, yes, I hate myself for the truth. So it you promise to walk away, like you said and never come back, then, yes, I will be honest with you. I will be honest with you...about what I want."
The words just flew out of Caroline's mouth, not being able to stop them. She was having an internal battle with herself because he was still the one that had threatened her friends so many times, that had wanted Elena dead and that had sent Tyler away. He had done so many bad things, had even put her life in danger, had bitten her, but he had also saved her every time.
All of her life, Caroline had thought first about what was the right thing to do, what others would want her to do and what was allowed for her to do, or say, or feel. She had always wanted to do good by others, to not break the rules and to be what everyone would assume she was. And, sometimes she had lost herself, but becoming a vampire had changed her for the better. She was mature enough to make her own choices and still be the bubbly, good girl that wanted to help every one of her friends. Even being a vampire she had had to endure her father trying to 'fix her' and had to adapt so that she wouldn't lose her humanity. Still, she had always been the one to be called upon whenever there was Elena drama. And sometimes, being good had led her into being kidnapped and tortured and bitten, but she always prevailed because she was Caroline Forbes, one of the good ones. And being good was, well ...good.
But, then Niklaus Mikaelson came into town and stirred things up, little by little getting under her skin, turning her world upside down. She had to admit...she was starting to like the change. He had slowly made his way into her life, later into her dreams. Klaus had started to warm up on her, then, Caroline had actually started to miss him, to want to see him more often. Those were deeply hidden secret desires of hers, of course. He had made her feel like she was something precious, like some sort of queen...his queen. She definitely didn't want to dwell on how much she loved the feeling.
When he had left for New Orleans, Caroline had discovered that she wanted to see him, that she missed hearing his voice and now she realized that Klaus had gotten into her system, like the most powerful drug and she was terrified to admit how much she wanted to be addicted to him.
There were so many conflicting emotions rushing through her at high speed that she didn't even know what to do anymore, how to handle them. She watched as Klaus' eyes widened slightly at hearing all that she had to say, clearly not having expected her to be so determined, to have such fire blazing in her eyes as she spoke. Caroline was probably going insane just by thinking about it now, but she couldn't help wonder why he was saying things like that to her now. He had already made a promise to wait for her, to be her last love and now he was saying that he would leave and never come back? It gave her whiplash and she just couldn't deal with it.
It was unnerving to say the least because he was just so unpredictable, yet Caroline was starting to like that...
Klaus was at a loss for words, watching her eyes darken slightly as he pursed his lips, not knowing what to say. On one hand, he was the one that had given her that somewhat of an ultimatum, had asked to know what she wanted. He knew that it was a bit too much for her, but he was tired of having her deny all the time that there was something between them. Seeing her today and talking to her, seeing her smile at him had made him certain that he had been right. Plus, now she was free, she was no longer together with that mutt, so she could finally admit it to herself without feeling guilty...
Still, he had been the one to push her over the edge like that with his suggestion that he'd be leaving and never coming back, so he kind of had this coming. It was clearly hard to hear her say that if he actually promised to leave, then she'd be honest with him. It hurt him to hear that, but he knew it must've hurt her to hear him say that he'd leave and never return. Actually, both of them seemed to be conflicted by their own thoughts more than anything and it was as if they were challenging each other to see who would back off first. So, after being at war with himself, Klaus finally decided to give Caroline what she wanted and make her a promise just to hear her confession...
"I will walk away, and I will never come back, I promise..." He took another step closer to her, his eyes boring into hers with such intensity that it made her head spin. It hurt him to get those words out, but he got a bit of comfort at seeing the slight tinge of sadness reflected in Caroline's blue eyes, as well. She seemed to debate for a minute and he loved that she was still struggling, the only thing comforting him being the prospect of hearing her confession. He didn't know what to expect.
Caroline looked back at Klaus, not knowing what exactly to say. It was obvious that it was hard for him to make such promises to her and she had to admit it wasn't easy for her either. But, on the other hand, now there was not so much pressure on her shoulders. It was some kind of a relief because with Klaus leaving after that, there wouldn't be so many consequences to think about...no one would know and she could say, or do what she had wanted for a while now. She could act on impulse, go with the flow, live a little and there would be no consequences. Or so she'd like to think...it was an out that he gave her, to give in, to take a chance. He was daring her to do what she wanted and not to worry about what anyone would think, just act on her feelings.
And right then, she understood that and she planned on taking full advantage of the situation. Caroline would finally do what she had so desperately tried to ignore every single time that she had seen Klaus. So, she finally took a chance, stepping slowly closer to Klaus, whose eyes were wide and searching hers for answers. Finally, she would be able to give into temptation, her eyes already lowering to his sinful, raspberry coloured lips. Admittedly, she had always wondered what those lush lips tasted like, how his stubble would feel scraping ever so slightly over her skin...on her neck and lower still...
To be completely honest with herself, Caroline had had a few explicit dreams revolving around a certain Original hybrid, more often than she'd like to admit. And who wouldn't? Klaus was a very attractive man, with his devilish smirk and penetrating gaze, the lean, muscled body that she had had a glimpse of when Silas had attacked him. Then, there were the times when they were actually having fun together, the sincere smile that brought out his adorable dimples and let's not forget about the sexy accent...And, there was that fun, teasing side of him that he seemed to show only around her and it made it hard to remember that he was a 'monster'.
Klaus had driven her crazy long before the night of her graduation, the sexual tension thick between them and lust always overwhelming her when she was around him. It had been difficult to stay away and he was right, she had covered their connection with hostility and revulsion simply because if she wouldn't have done so, she wouldn't have been able to resist him. She had admitted that there was a connection between them and now, she was so close to him that there was no going back. Screw the consequences! Caroline knew it was about time that she would stop thinking about what everyone else considered that was right and start doing what she really wanted. And that was Klaus...
Her eyes gazed up into his, finally letting her guard down and seeing that his eyes had darkened, too. Klaus watched her entranced, still not knowing what to expect from the woman that had the ability to bring him to his knees with one simple confession. Her gaze was enticing, unrecognizable emotions swirling in their depths of endless blues and greys. Those eyes were capable of making him lose his wits; lust and longing burning through his veins as he watched her slowly come closer. Finally, a determination seemed to settle over her soft features, wanton lust and abandon evident in her gaze. So, it was true, even the purest hearts were drawn to the darkness...and Caroline acknowledged his promise with one simple word that shattered their restraints. That was the only word that they had both needed to hear before completely letting go and going up in flames together.
"Good!" Caroline closed the distance between them, not wanting to fight that constant pull anymore. It was like gravity, bringing them together, and she was done fighting against it.
So, that's it for now. I am sorry for ending it here, but I couldn't bring myself to write such an important scandalous scene in a hurry because it has to be perfect!
What do you think of this so far? I really wanted to interpret every little thing about that scene and kind of get into their heads a bit. Don't worry... I still plan on writing a smutty continuation as soon as possible!
REVIEW and let me know if you liked it! I would love to hear your thoughts...
Thank you for reading!
