The Blonde Caretaker
Chapter 1 / My Child's Caretaker


"Oh, I'll be fine, Nik," Rebekah said while hugging her older brother tightly. "I'm 19 now, I know what to do, I even have the talent to kick men's naughty ass."

Klaus laughed softly while hugging her back, and kissed her cheeks after pulling out from the tight warm hug. "I will miss you, little sister."

"So do I." She replied. Her voice sounded weak, she was almost crying and he knew it. His heart was also crying, knowing that he had to let her go although she would be back during school breaks and holidays, but it wasn't enough. He would usually saw her every single day sitting on the couch after he came back from work. Not anymore today.

"Do you really have to go?" Kingsley, his 4-years-old son, mumbled while playing with his own fingers and looked down to the ground.

Rebekah knelt down a little and patted Kingsley's shoulder gently. "Unfortunately, yes. But I promise I'll be back soon. And you have to promise me that you'll be good toward your father and uncles, alright?"

Kingsley nodded quietly as he was pulled into a hug by his aunt. He was trying not to cry, so he remained quiet. He had been with his aunt for a very long time, she was the one to take care of him when his father and uncles couldn't. Since he never knew who was his mother, he always thought of his aunt like a mother figure. Now she had to leave, who would play with him at night when his father hadn't returned home yet? His uncle could, but it might not be fun like when he was with his aunt.

"Aw, you little green bean," Rebekah breathed out and hugged him once again for the last time. "I will be back. If you miss me, we can have video calls through your father or uncles' phone. All you have to do is ask them."

After hugging Kingsley, Rebekah stood up and gave his older brother one last hug as they heard a few footsteps behind. It was their siblings: Kol, Elijah and Finn. Finn surprisingly came, he definitely wanted to give his sister one last hug before she left. What she knew was that he already had a new life with his wife, Sage, in a new house. It was a surprise that he would come. "Finn!" She almost shrieked as she ran to hug him tightly. "I thought we'll only have farewell chats on phone. I'm glad you came."

"Of course I came, you are my sister. We grew up together."

Everyone smiled widely as both siblings hugged each other in front of them.

Rebekah pulled out from the hug and turned to her two older brothers. "Kol, Elijah. Where have you guys been? I've been searching for you in every last rooms in this mansion."

"We were picking up Finn to give you a surprise." Kol replied with his playful smile, as always.

"Oh, come here, both of you." Rebekah pulled both Kol and Elijah to a warm hug as she begun to cry happy tears. "I don't want to waste my tears earlier, how could you!"

Everyone laughed, and they spent an hour of talking and hugging for the last time before she left to the airport and departed to England.


Klaus watched his son playing with the miniature toy car as he was driving, heading to the Forbes Children Caretaker centre where Rebekah would usually drop Kingsley before she went to school. She said it was a very good and high recommended place to drop your children when you can't take care of them. "Are you alright, King?"

"I am, father," he spoke while nodding quietly. His eyes fixed on the toy car he was playing.

"Aunt Rebekah said that the place is nice. Is it?" Klaus asked while still driving, trying to distract his son from keep being quiet.

"Yes, it is." He replied while lifting his gaze, meeting his father's gaze. "There is this one caretaker who is my favorite. She is blonde and beautiful. She is kind."

"I'd like to meet her. I want to know how beautiful and kind is she." Klaus showed a playful smile toward his son, and somehow it made him curious as well. He would like to know whom his son was calling kind and beautiful. Children were always honest, therefore, he would like to know about whom he talked about earlier.

As soon as they were arrived in front of the Forbes Children Caretaker centre, he got off his car and opened the other car's door and carried his son and his bag. After locking his car, he walked inside the place and put his son down to let him walk, as he approached the counter. A black-haired woman lifted her head up and smiled to him, "May I help you sir?"

"Yes, uh, I'd like to inform that Kingsley Mikaelson's previous guardian will no longer drop and pick him up. I'll be the one to do that." Klaus informed while smiling back to her.

"Oh, okay, can I know what is your name and your relationship with Kingsley?" She asked again while grabbing a file with the name Kingsley Mikaelson as the cover.

"Klaus Mikaelson. I'm his father."

The woman lifted his head to see him again and smiled with a light nod, as she renamed the guardian's name from Rebekah Mikaelson into Klaus Mikaelson. "You're the father. So his previous guardian, Rebekah Mikaelson is your sister, or wife?"

Klaus laughed softly and looked to his palms. "No, she is my sister. Kingsley's aunt."

She nodded as she turned the paper around, telling him to sign onto the paper. After signing the paper in the file, his gaze lifted when he saw a blonde young woman walking out from the hall, approaching his son. Is this the woman King talked about? He asked in his head as he walked closer to his son.

"Who…?" The blonde woman asked.

"Caroline, he is Kingsley's father." The woman who was at the counter earlier informed.

"Oh, hello, Mr. Mikaelson." She gave out a wide smile and placed her hand out. "I'm the one who usually takes care of Kingsley."

Klaus shook her hand and saw her name tag Mrs. Forbes, head-caretaker and owner.

"I've heard of you from my son, Mrs. Forbes. I'm glad you take care of him very well," Klaus smiled to her and tilted his head a little. "He said you're his favorite. I wonder why he confessed like that to me."

Caroline laughed softly and blushed a little. "Well, I don't know. I just take care of him, you know. I don't do anything too special, yet he always wants me to be the one to take care of him."

"But that's very glad to hear, knowing my son will totally be fine here for a few hours with his favorite caretaker." He chuckled, groggily placing his hands into his pocket. His eyes met hers a couple of times which made him smile sometimes. It was true what his son said about her being beautiful. "Well then, I have to leave so soon. Please take care of Kingsley well. I'll pick up as soon as I can. Probably in 5-6 hours."

"Alright, I'll take care of him, Mr. Mikaelson. Don't worry." She chuckled lightly as Kingsley walked next to her.

She is quite interesting. Klaus smiled at the thought before he decided to leave.

"Bye Kingsley. Don't make a mess." Klaus handed Kingsley's bag to Caroline, as he knelt down to hug his son and kissed his head. "I love you."

"Bye father, I wuff you too." Kingsley said as he waved to his father and walked with Caroline who took his hand, heading to the center room where all the kids were playing. He always has a funny way to say I love you to his family, making them think it was cute.

That's Kingsley's father? He is hot- NO. Hello Caroline, he is a father! He is married. He has a wife doesn't he? I should stop liking a married man. I'm here to take care of children, not to fall in love or having a crush on random hot dad who stops by. Wake up, Caroline!
