He smiled at her from across the crowded bar when she finally turned to face him even if it was coincidental she spotted him freezing in her chair.
Klaus didn't realize how much his eyes had missed the sight before him.
Caroline Forbes had definitely grown up well and had an outfit to prove it.
A smile formed on her lips in response before she shyly turned back to the bar the view of her face now obstructed from him.
He felt a wave of disappointment wash over him even as he felt his body start to move forward towards her passed the game of pool his younger brother had talked him into.
She was truly a vision in that yellow dress with cut outs in all the right places and her legs crossed with ridiculous heels that made him wonder what they felt like wrapped around him.
When he finally came back to Mystic Falls for his kid brother's wedding he didn't realize she might still be here.
Caroline was never meant for this town and yet here she was.
It made him sad to think that someone or something could have compelled her to stay here instead of going out into the world like she always said she would.
His thoughts were cut short when her familiar scent invaded his senses making him shut his eyes reveling in the power of it.
He felt like an angsty school boy which he loathed and was one of the reasons why he only slept with women, not even more than once just in case attachments might form.
Tonight he thought he would have Caroline and finally be rid of the anxiety that he surrounded himself all through high school over her.
It was impossible he thought that she could still affect him in any way but she did.
he leaned forward extending his arm around her placing his glass on the bar catching the bar keeps attention.
He nodded for another refill before whispering in her ear, "And here I thought you couldn't get any lovelier."
Klaus stepped back and to her side taking the bar stool next to hers as she swiveled around to face him.
He was met with a lovely shade of red around her neck, chest and cheeks, "Klaus freaking Mikaelson." she leaned forward slightly buzzed.
"I knew it would take hell freezing over for you to come back into this town again," she says referring to Kol his flirtatious brother marrying one of her closest friends.
He nods displaying a half smile as her hand caresses his shoulder before her judgment catches up with her.
"Kol always did have a way of making snow come down on the mountains of hell," he said as he sipped at his drink.
Making her laugh was the last thing on his mind as her thigh grazed his when she threw her head back but he enjoyed it nonetheless.
"And what about you," he asked his eyes boring into hers the only way a lover should.
"What about me?" Caroline replied sensing a familiarity between them even though they had never actually held a conversation before.
She pulled her sweater on covering herself up as she felt a chill knowing she wasn't all that cold she scoffed giving in to him, "I just kind of got stuck here," she replied.
The way Klaus looked at her made her nervous, "Not everyone can be like you," she reasoned as she felt him swaying her into a false sense of security.
That was never a good call considering his reputation. Klaus for his part didn't pretend to be offended in fact he looked even more smug than ever.
She grabbed her small bag throwing it over her shoulder deciding it was best to go before he struck in her swirl she grazed him.
Klaus hands went to her hips as he smiled broadly, "I love a woman walking towards me," Klaus said confidently.
She glares at him a mocking smile on her lips as she says, "Just wait till you see my backside walking away from you," she said not caring how dirty it sounded she couldn't take it back anymore.
