Your Lips My Salvation

Klaus finds Caroline in the Grill cutting. 4x22.


Klaus got out of his car and looked around him trying to guess where Caroline would be and after a while he started walking into the Grill. He had returned το Mystic Falls. The moment Rebekah called him few days ago and told him how Silas had threatened Caroline and almost killed her mother, he jumped in his car and left New Orleans behind.

He didn't care about anything. Not Marcel, nor Hayley and her child. He only cared about Caroline and wanted to be with her. He wanted her to be safe.
He got into the Grill and started looking for her.

"What makes you think that she's here?" he heard Matt saying and rolled his eyes.

"I just know... Don't make any more questions and tell me where is she." he demanded with slow, threatening voice. Tell me where she is or...

"I haven't seen her for a while. Maybe she's out." he answered raising his hands defensively.
Klaus moved further in the bar and reached the back. He was about to look to the left aisle when he heard a sound like something was dripping on the floor to his right.

He found Caroline sitting on the floor with a knife in her hands and blood all over her wrist. She had a lost look in her eyes when they met Klaus' ones.

"Caroline." he called and his eyes widened. What happened to her? "I have to keep cutting" she said in a weak voice and she moved to cut her wrist once more. The knife suddenly left her hand and she found herself in Klaus' arms as he carried her back to the bar.

He made her sit on a chair and tried to calm her. "Caroline, love. Look at me..."

"I need to bleed… Silas wants me to bleed… I need to bleed" she spoke continually like she was hypnotized. Silas, he thought. Silas again, torturing his angel. He swore he would kill him for causing so much pain to Caroline.

He grabbed her arms as she reached for something to cut herself again and turned her around facing him. "Caroline. Stop it. Silas is in your head. You need to stop, love." Klaus was terrified. He didn't know what to do to stop her hallucinations.

"Just compel her!" he heard Matt saying. God, that bartender was so stupid.

"She's on vervain Matt. I can't compel her." Answered tiredly as Caroline was talking repeatedly "I need to keep cutting".

Klaus did the first thing that came to his mind. Putting his hands on the sides of her face he pressed his lips forcefully on hers. They remained stuck for few seconds before Caroline snapped her eyes open and looked at Klaus pulling away from him.

"What are you doing? Why did you do that?" she asked, still shocked from his kiss.

"It was the only thing I could do. You were hallucinating. Cutting yourself…"

"You could have slapped me!" she answered dumbfoundedly, and tried to block the memory of how his lips felt, how soft and gentle were on hers.

"You know I would never hurt you, love" Klaus looked at her and their eyes locked for some seconds. Caroline could see Klaus affection in his eyes. She felt her cheeks getting hotter as images of the two of them kissing and cuddling flashed in her head.

"Um… Can you do this again?" she asked shyly and her eyes fell on the floor, as she heard Klaus gasping at her request.

Seconds after, their lips were glued together again.
