Caroline awoke from her vampire slumber. Her eyes adjusted into the darkness of the room. She always wanted a boyfriend and always had dreams about having one. In seconds her vampire instincts told her that someone was in her home.
Mom? she thought.
No, you can't be here... you have work today.
She tiptoed to her mother's bedroom and slowly cracked open the door.
Nope, no one's here...
She stopped and smelled the air... It smelled sweet and hot. Just like...
TYLER! she thought right away and smiled in relief.
Wow, I thought it was another vampire or something... She slumped down in a chair with relief.
"Tyler," she called out into the darkness of the morning.
She smelled the air again, got up, and followed the smell it led her back into her bedroom. She sighed and walked through the dark hallway leading into her room and slumped down on her bed. She looked into the closet and knew right away where Tyler was.
"Ugh, Tyler!" she said pretending she didn't know he was there in the room. "Where are you?"
The closet door jiggled a little. Caroline jumped, making him think she didn't know he was there. Then her closet opened revealing a very tired looking Tyler.
"You were here the whole time? You scarred me half to death..." she said, even though she knew he was there the whole time.
"Oh wait, that's not that possible anymore..." she rethought out loud and laughed.
Tyler stepped out of the closet slowly, it was dark, but Caroline's cat-like, vampire eyes, still could spot out what he was wearing.
Hello, Tyler! In a tight, white tee... and umm, jean cut offs? Well you are definitely a werewolf now aren't you? You look just like Jacob in New Moon with that outfit... she thought and laughed to herself, not caring if he heard; not even knowing that he could hear.
"Yea," he said looking up into her green eyes, vampire and cat-like, he'd always loved them.
Caroline, still sitting, pat her bed, telling him to come and sit with her. He nodded slowly and came over. He smiled and looked up into her green eyes again.
Wow, so green... he thought to himself.
"Guess how long I stayed here this time..." he said with a sly wink.
"Umm," she thought.
"All night," he said with a smile, not letting her answer.
"Wow," she said, she'd figured because how exhausted he'd looked coming out of the closet.
He reached for her hand and she sensed it and put her's on his. They were both looking at each other now.
She leaned over and gave him a short kiss. "Thanks," she said.
"For what? Holding your hand?" he said with a smile, his eyes turned the golden brown she saw before. When he turned into a werewolf, right in front of her... scared and not knowing where to go.
"Well yes, and being like a watch-dog for me," she said.
"Oh," he said and smiled again, his eyes twinkling. "You're welcome."
He couldn't take it anymore... he had to do it. He leaned over and... kissed her. To his surprise, Caroline kissed back. He was also surprised it didn't feel weird at all, it felt normal, even though this was a real werewolf and a vampire kissing. When he finally leaned back, he knew Caroline wasn't going to let go... he smiled.
Did you know... he said to her.
Oh my god, Tyler! You can talk like this? She smiled and kissed him again.
So, when is your mom coming back? he said afterwards.
I think, late tonight? Why?
Oh, I don't know... he thought; Caroline listening.
So, you like talking like this? Do you want to from now on? he sent to her.
YES! Of course... no one can hear us! she told him.
"Caroline Forbes..." he said to her.
She jumped because she had no idea he'd talk out loud again. She looked at him, not knowing what to say or what he'd say.
Yes? she thought, trying to say it out loud, but he'd already heard.
"Will you go out with me?" he said shyly.
Caroline gasped. Then smiled. Yes!
