Hello all my lovely readers! *Whatever few that is* This is my second fanfiction ever, If your fans of the first, I'm sorry I deleted it. I lost all inspiration for it, and the story line suddenly became very boring for me.
I really hope you enjoy this one. And yes, I do have a beta reader, so if there are any grammar errors...it's her fault!
All characters, 'most' houses, and 'most' places belong to the writers, creators, directors (blah blah) of The Vampire Diaries; books and TV serial. BUT THE STORY LINE IS MINE BITCH! Hehehe... meow.
Caroline's POV
"Ok! So, all we have to do now is get Klaus and his crazy ass siblings away from Mystic falls….easier said than done. Does anybody have any ideas?" drawled Damon, looking out at the rest of us, his deep blue eyes making their way across the room; Bonnie, Jeremy, Elena, Matt and then me.
He paused for a moment, staring at me, as if he was waiting for me to say something….to reject his idea. Well, why would I do that? It's not like the whole idea of troubling the originals at all was in any way nonsensical…Oh, who am I kidding? None of them are actually bothering us! Elijah is too busy trying to catch the whirlwind that is the amazing Katherine Pierce, Rebekah is trying…..hard, to just be a 'normal' teenage girl, Kol and Finn are dead, and Klaus… well, he doesn't have any reason to come after us now, I mean Elena is a vampire now, so her blood is basically useless to him.
And the cure; well it turned out to be more of waste of time than an actual mystical liquid thing. We went all the way to the stupid island in the middle of absolutely nowhere, with no phone reception! And when we got to the cave…there was nothing there. Like absolutely nothing. Maybe it's just all a myth. Or maybe, it's somewhere else, hidden away. But whatever. We're never gonna find it anyway and believe me, nobody is going to be wasting time going searching for that again. What with the whole Silas thing, too much risk And I-
"Earth to Caroline!" interrupting my thoughts was the silky voice of the lovely Elena Gilbert. "What are you thinking about?" she seemed less curious and more like she was mocking me, "Daydreaming now huh?" she taunted, smirking.
"Huh? What! Of course not… it's just that, I was thinking an-"
"Well that's never good" came a snarky remark from the elder Salvatore brother.
"Oh, shut up and just listen!" Now I'm annoyed. Why the hell does he have to comment on everything I say? "I don't think we should be doing anything to disturb this peace we have with the Originals. At least for now they seem calm enough. They're all out there pursuing whatever it is that they want. The most important thing is that they are leaving us alone. Let's not….uh… agitate them…." I started hesitating, actually looking around the room. I was surrounded by silence and hard, cold, icy stares. Looking across the room to Bonnie; she seemed to be the only one who even seemed to be thinking about what I had just said, her eyes unfocused, whispering something under her breath…
"Caroline wha-"Elena tried to say before her voice cracked and her lower lip started to tremble. Her eyes gathering up wetness "How could you even say that? After all they did to us? To me? They don't deserve to be able to live here." Her large brown eyes watching me, daring me to say something back.
I stared right back at her, and then quickly looked away; she looked so pained, but at the same time so angry, filled with vengeance. So unlike herself. My eyes pointing down at my feet now. Because in the end, it's always about her, and I don't blame her. I bet if all those things had happened to me, what with losing all her family and her friends and her life….but then again. I had lost a lot too. I was killed too! She's such a martyr. Perfect little Elena, the jewel, so precious. Well, she could at least pretend to care about me. About all of us!
"Oh my God. It's always about you isn't it?" I sneered at her, to angry now to care about her feelings. The adrenaline rushing through my body, making me more confident than I really am. My head snapped back up, looking straight up into Elena's pathetic eyes "Maybe I don't want to get into another fight with the world's strongest, oldest vampires! Maybe I don't want to risk my life for nothing! If we just leave them the hell alone then they will do the same for us!"
Taking a deep breath I tried to calm down; before I did something I regretted. Count Caroline, count. 1…2…3…4…5-
"Excuse me?!" My calming counts were interrupted by a shrill voice. Well she's clearly she's upset now; I slowly opened my eyes to check the damage "Caroline. How could you say that! If it weren't for the originals Stefan would still be with us! He would be here in this room and not there with them! With that…that bimbo!" She said
She was of course referring to the untimely disappearance of Stefan Salvatore; my best friend…but actually he hadn't disappeared. He was actually out spending time with Rebekah. One of the originals. How did that happen? Well….
Flashback
"Caroline…" he hesitated, unsure of what he wanted to do, "I-I'm only telling you this because I trust you. Because none of the others will understand, they'll question me; they'll think I've been compelled!"
"Have you? Because this all seems a bit fishy. I mean, how are you all of a sudden so engrossed in Rebekah?"
"Caroline. Just listen. You don't know the entire story here. You don't know what happened"
"Well, whose fault is that? Since you won't tell me I have no choice but to jump to conclusions! I mean I've been asking you about this for hours!"
"One hour Caroline. One."
"Ugh! What does that have to do with you and Rebe-"
"Just hear me out! Please?" He said, finally deciding to explain.
"Ok, but we… or rather I have a meeting at your house in half an hour! So make it quick"
"Fine. Let's start from the beginning. As you know…I've been having a bad month" A sound that sounded suspiciously like a snort came from Caroline's throat, ignoring it, Stefan continued on with his story.
"I had just been out in the woods looking for something to drink. I was too thirsty, but there was nothing. Usually I find a deer or a rabbit…but there was nothing there. It was getting late, and I was tired of searching, so I started walking back home. I wasn't really paying attention to my surroundings at that point, just working on auto. So I just opened the door and walked in. Damon and Elena weren't supposed to be there. They were supposed to be out on some romantic date. I mean it was 11 pm, I don't know what I expected, but, I did not expect what I heard…They were there, downstairs in the living room. Going at it like they hadn't seen each other in years!" He paused to take an unnecessary breath, preparing to talk about what came next.
"They were there Caroline! I heard her…them. I couldn't do it; I had to leave, so I ran. I ran all the way out to the middle of the woods. Hoping that nobody would be there, that nobody would see me like that. I sat there for- wow I don't know how long, I lost track. But then there was a noise, near me. Twigs snapping; people walking. 2 people. I could hear their hearts, beating, pumping blood around their bodies. Their warm red blood. I couldn't control it; I snapped, I could see what I was doing; but- but I couldn't control my actions. And then I was hiding behind a tree, waiting for them to come closer. I jumped on the girl she screamed so loud, and I had my fangs latched into her carotid artery. I'm not proud of it. But I was so hungry. I could feel his heart slowing down…he would be dead soon."
It was like he was reliving the memory instead of repeating it to me.
"Stefan, I don't want to hear this part. Please just- what does this have to do with you and Rebekah?" Seemingly knocked out of his thoughts, he looked up warily.
"Patience Caroline. I'm almost there, see, before I could actually kill him, I felt someone's hand on my shoulder; the person turned me around and pushed me up against a tree. I thought it was Damon, but when I focused, I saw flashes of long blonde hair, and a really feminine voice compelling the two humans to forget what had happened, and that they got attacked by a wild do? It was quite confusing until I realized who it was. Can you guess?"
"Rebekah?"
"Rebekah. She came to me then, once she was done with the humans. She looked so beautiful. I hadn't seen her in quite some time. I was drunk, Caroline. I was riding the high that blood always gives me. And at the moment…I really just wanted to kiss her…so I did. And she was-"
"Woah! I do not want to know the details! Just skip to the part where you decided you want to get to know her? Please?"
He chuckled, all the bad memories out of his head, "Ok, well, it was actually just supposed to be a one night stand…but after, I just couldn't even think of leaving, She looked so beautiful. I- I really just wanted to get to know her again; what food she liked, her favorite colour." He sighed "I guess I still have feelings for her…after all this time. I decided I owed it to myself and her to get one good shot at it. To try again. For all I know she's the one for me"
"Wow. Stefan…you're glowing!" Caroline giggled, "Maybe" She said "Maybe she is the one for you" she said smiling
"Thank you Caroline. Thank you for understanding, for listening, and for believing me"
"What are friends for? The only question is…how are you gonna tell everyone else?"
"I was thinking…maybe you could tell them?"
End of flashback
"Caroline? Hello! Are you even listening?"
"Huh" Snapping out of my reverie, I blinked, "What?"
"Caroline" she whined, suddenly talking like a pouting five year old "This is serious! For all we know, Rebekah has compelled Stefan, and is torturing him to get to us! She killed me remember!?"
"Ok. How about NO? I am not listening to you, if you had a shred of decency you would maybe believe that maybe Stefan is with Rebekah to get away from all of this craziness? He's with her out of his own free will! Yo-"
Cut off…again! "No, Caroline! He would have told me…we talk!...he-he would have…right?" her voice; thick with confusion, but her eyes, pointing right at me are filled with hate, anger and despair.
Wow, she's so clueless! "No Elena, he wouldn't have told you, because you don't listen…but…he told me. I'm sorry Elena, but truthfully you've changed, wow this is really cheesy, but you have…I don't know whether it's for the better or worse, but you're not the same Elena from before, that Elena died when you did."
Phewf, bullet dodged, it's out. Now what-oh god, oh god. Her eyes are going red. Shit! Shit! Shit!
"Caroline" she growled, her fangs had cut through her gums and had cut through her lower lip, bright red blood dripping down her chin and onto the red designer carpet, blending in with the design. Lines starting to starting to appear under her eyes; like black sludge flowing through her veins "Get out. Now!" she almost screamed, but Caroline had already disappeared.
I'm gone, Elena. And I'm not coming back anytime soon.
Klaus's POV
Klaus was walking around the town aimlessly. Feeling quite calm, he had decided that morning to take a day off of his usual life, and just explore his old home town.
What a magnificent day. Mystic Falls is looking quite spectacular. I wonder where Caroline is…
A hurricane of gold, shimmering in the sunlight, whirled past him.
He imagined a pair of blue eyes looking at him before the vampire had run out of sight. He took a deep breath, and her scent enveloped his senses. He hesitated for a little, and kept walking. Following her scent, making sure not to run too fast lest she see him. After some time, the trail slowed. Her smell in the air was fresher, he looked up, squinting, he took a step forward to get out of the direct rays of sunlight, and looming over him was The Lockwood Manor.
This is where she was heading. To see the Lockwood boy. She's already been in there for 10 minutes.
His thoughts took an abrupt turn; thinking about Caroline with Tyler, sweaty, moaning under him. His nose wrinkled, he turned around in disgust and was about to turn around to leave when he heard a scream; coming from none other than Mystic Falls one and only Caroline Forbes.
Coming from none other than, Mystic Falls very own Caroline Forbes.
