"Please, please, please, please, PLEASE!"
Groaning, I was awoken by the sound of my 7 year old sister, Elena, begging, screaming and pleading at our Mom. I opened one eye and glanced at the alarm clock. 7:35AM. So much for a lie in, I thought as I threw the blanket over me and climbed out of bed. I looked at myself in the mirror; I was wearing a simple pink tank top with grey sweats. My eyes had black bags underneath them and my hair was a complete mess. I walked downstairs to be greeted by my sister using the puppy dog eyes on Mom. Raising my eyebrows, I decided to not get involved and grabbed a carton of milk from the fridge.
"I'm sorry, sweetie. I have an important meeting at work and I can't miss it." Mom said with a small, sympathetic smile. I watched, intrigued, as I poured the milk into a glass.
"It's not fair! I want to meet Klaus tomorrow!" She screamed back. Elena never usually was spoilt or selfish but if it came down to Klaus Mikaelson, hell she would do anything. I can never understand her obsession, or anybody else's, with Klaus Mikaelson. Sure, he was good looking, but aren't most actors nowadays? There wasn't anything hugely special about him, just another young adult who managed to get into the acting career. "Can't Caroline take me?" Elena suggested sweetly. I froze in my place, please say no, please.
"I guess she could, but it's up to Caroline." She answered before disappearing off upstairs to get ready for work.
"Caroline?" She tried. I shook my head while placing the carton of milk back in the fridge. "Please?! You know how much this means to me and how long I have wanted to meet him."
Smiling, I remembered the day when she first came obsessed with Klaus. Elena and her best friend, April Young, watched a movie with him starring as the main role and before we all knew it she was obsessed.
Sighing, I gave in. "Fine, but you won't wake me up early again."
Elena giggled and smiled, "I won't! I promise! You're the best sister ever!" She attacked me with a huge hug before running upstairs shouting "I'M GOING TO MEET KLAUS MIKAELSON!"
What have I got myself into?
Caroline and Elena were in the queue patiently waiting for their turn. Elena was wearing her Klaus Mikaelson t-shirt while smiling so much that it made me feel glad that I took her.
"What am I going to say to him?" She asked me, a hint of nervousness in her eyes. Bless her, I thought.
Chuckling, I responded, "Whatever you want. You'll be fine." She nodded at looked in front her, desperate to see Klaus. I pressed play on my iPod, listening to the music in my ears. The camera was ready in bag, Mom had said, no demanded, that I take pictures of Elena's 'special' moment at the meet and greet.
We were 3 people away from meeting the actor. Elena's excitement grew as we got closer and she watched everyone's responses as they walked away. Some were normal, some were happy, some were crying and some…. I was pretty sure they were going to faint.
My iPod had finished the song so I searched for a new one while Elena tugged me saying, "Hurry!" Not paying attention to the queue, I pressed play. Looking up, I noticed Elena standing near Klaus with a table in their way. When I saw Klaus' startled expression I quickly caught up with my sister.
"I'm sorry for whatever just happened. My little sister has the tendency to say what she thinks at times." I apologized, hoping she hadn't done anything bad.
I knew I shouldn't be but I couldn't help myself from staring at the gorgeous man in front of me. I guess he was even more good looking face to face. He locked eyes with me and I could feel butterflies in my stomach, happily dancing away with no regrets while my face blushed.
"It's perfectly fine, sweetheart. She only asked if she could marry me." He answered, only taking his eyes off me to take a quick glance at Elena whose face was a vibrant as the sun. I could feel myself swooning, I'd forgotten he was British too. Damn you British people and your British accents.
"I love you!" Elena blurted out while taking the signed picture of him which I knew would be hung on her wall as soon as we got back.
He smirked and looked down, obviously not knowing how to respond to compliments. Cute, I thought. "Nice to meet you, Elena and?" He turned to me, expecting me to answer but I was so dazed in my thoughts I didn't realise he had asked me until Elena nudged me.
"Caroline." Hearing the security mutter something about hurrying up, Joseph nodded. "Oh wait! I haven't took any pictures!" Mom is going to kill me. Elena shot me a glare for forgetting something so apparently obvious.
"How about you girls wait for the last few people for me to meet then I'll take a picture with dear Elena here?" Elena nodded enthusiastically and I couldn't help but give in.
We were waiting at the side of the room for the meet and greet to finish and I couldn't help but watch Klaus Mikaelson as Elena babbled on about how happy she was.
I'd talked to him for like two minutes and I was intrigued by the actor, but I mentally slapped myself. Like a famous millionaire would even think twice about liking a small town girl like myself. He probably has a girlfriend already. But something about him just made me not want to stay away. I wasn't usually the one to fall head over heels for a guy who was only insanely handsome, he had to be smart too and I'd want to have at least some hope of him not hurting me.
(Klaus POV)
I signed the picture and handed it to the teenager before saying my goodbyes.
Caroline was beautiful. I admire how she is one of the only people who has treated me like I am: normal. I love being able to act, it's always been my dream job but being famous isn't as great as everyone thinks. I love my fans but I'm just a normal human being and Caroline knows that.
I couldn't focus on anything. She had invaded my thoughts. She was just a girl that had come for her sister, not for me. She probably doesn't even care about me. I shook my thoughts away; I couldn't let her in. Getting involved with a fan, if she even is one, is dangerous, not for me, but for her.
I persuaded myself to try and forget all my thoughts but all that was forgotten when I saw her walking towards me with Elena, her younger sister.
Your thoughts? Please review, it'd mean a lot. Don't be afraid to say what you think, negative responses will help me with my writing. Just don't be too mean ;)
