Rousseau, the quaint bar she entered was not as packed as she had expected. Caroline did a quick check of the interior, located the bar and leisurely walked toward the bar. She ordered a house cocktail to calm her nerves when she thought she heard a familiar voice. Squinting her eyes in concentration she slowly lifted her left hand and tucked the wayward strand of hair behind her ear in a practiced move to heighten her hearing. And yes, she was 100% sure that accent, that voice was just the hybrid she was seeking. Just the sound of his voice had left her hot and bothered. Really, was she really that pathetic or just really hopelessly, mindlessly and desperately in love with the hybrid. After her earth shattering self-discovery, she drank her cocktail in one gulp and slowly stood up from the barstool she was presently occupying and walked deeper into the side of the bar toward the familiar voice. His voice was bewitching her like a siren's wail calling her home. As she approached she caught the tail end of what looked like a discussion.
"You won't even reconsider your decision prohibiting witches from practicing magic. That was why I had it cast in stone before, No witches can practice." An unidentified voice said.
"Marcel, one misstep shouldn't cloud your judgment. Let them realize the consequence of their insubordination the hard way. Heads will roll, do not doubt me. I believe I have never seen Elijah this furious in a very long time. It's as if…" the rest of his words were lost to him as he caught sight of Caroline.
Marcel who had not turned around but just continued to stare at Klaus interjected "…..it's as if what?" with Klaus still unresponsive and looking at a space above his head, Marcel finally turned around in his seat and noticed a young, exceptionally beautiful girl just staring back at Klaus. Intrigued by the fact that Klaus seemed entranced by the woman Marcel ventured a question to Klaus "do you know that one?"
Klaus broke out of his trance and proceeded to stand-up ignoring Marcel totally and walked the last three steps to Caroline. Flashing a smile, he gently held a stray piece of hair and tucked it behind Caroline's ear. "To what do I owe this surprise, are you in trouble?" frowning Klaus narrowed his eyes "the Scooby doo gang bit off more that they could chew again and need my help?"
Caroline stared into the green-blue eyes of Klaus and very quietly said "I can't believe I'm really here, I missed you" and proceeded to tentatively hug Klaus.
Marcel who in the span of time Klaus and Caroline had conversed was now beside Klaus, raising his eyebrows "Klaus?"
Turning toward Marcel Klaus said "Marcel, this is an old friend Caroline. Caroline, this is Marcel. Marcel if you will excuse us, I have matters to attend you. I will be in touch with you tomorrow" and proceeded to take Caroline's hand and walk out of the bar. As Klaus and Caroline reached the exit, Klaus swooshed them all the way to what looked like the end of the forest.
Turning to Caroline Klaus proceeded to explain "My apologies Caroline but I did not want our conversation interrupted. And it's not safe to be walking around the Quarter at this hour." Looking into Caroline's eyes "When you made me promise to never come back to Mystic Falls, I never thought you would be the one to come to me so soon. Tell me sweetheart, what really brings you to my kingdom?"
Caroline bit her lip and sighed deeply before stating "that's the thing. I had every intention of forgetting about you, have the college experience, getting on with my "Klaus-free" life. But you…..never really left Mystic Falls as promised. Well physically you did, but in every other way didn't. So here is my next confession. Every time I close my eyes I see you. I dream of you. If your intention was to make me into some king of lovesick puppy then you have succeeded. My mind, my heart, my soul keep yearning for you. Telling me I can't leave another day without you."
In the course of Caroline's passionate speech, Klaus has experienced shock, surprise, astonishment as if all the Christmases in the last 1,000 years of his existence had all come at the same time. The last emotion he experienced was doubt. How could someone just a couple of weeks back, who despite her "honest confession" really be this open and exposed. In the years that he had known his Caroline, and she was "his" Caroline, she had never been this honest with him, not even with her confession. She was always reserved some for herself that it took everything in him to "ruffle her feathers" to break her out of her guarded feelings. While he wanted to rejoice in her honesty, every pore in his being hesitated, as he took the one step forward to get into Caroline's personal space he experienced another shock, Caroline has grabbed him and kissed him like it was the end of the world. Talk about "the greatest kiss of his existence", that was definitely it. Trying to gain perspective and control of the situation, Klaus slowly retreated from Caroline's embrace and searched her eyes, for what, even he did not know.
Disappointed, Caroline looked to the ground and sighed heavily. "So you don't really feel the same way? After all that talk about being "in love" with me and being my last love, now that I have come here, of my own free will I might add, you suddenly lost interest in the chase?" after another long sigh, Caroline proceeded to walk away from Klaus.
Quickly regaining his senses, Klaus grabbed Caroline's arm and once again stepped into her personal space. "Caroline, believe me, you have made me the happiest creature on this earth with your new confession. But forgive me for doubting you, only you could shock me with your words. Should I dare to believe they are really from here" proceeding to place his right hand on top of her heart.
Caroline search the eyes of Klaus and what she found their astounded her "you doubt me, now?"
"Can you blame me?" Klaus responded.
"Seriously, so now I have to prove to you that I mean what I say, that this is not just some lame way for me to play with your feeling?" Caroline incredulously shrieked.
Klaus held Caroline in his arms "believe me love, all my promises to you, I meant every single one of them, you are my one true love. Nothing in this earth will mean more to me that to have my heart be cared for and loved by you in return But really, my point is not without merit"
"Klaus, I left Mystic Falls, left all of my friends, all things I was familiar with, my human life, I came here to be with you…if you can't quite believe my words then let me show you. You have spent the better part of a year wooing me, let me do that for you" Caroline whispered.
Finally Klaus smirked "woo me? Caroline Forbes, Miss Mystic Falls, did you just say that you would do anything within you to convince me?"
Caroline rolled her eyes "…and you will make me do it. Obligate me to remove all the lingering doubts in your heart?"
Klaus obliged "if you truly be in what you say then it should really be a hardship, should it…"
Deeply sighing, Caroline retorted "if that's what it will take to show you, then yes"
Klaus couldn't help himself his eyes had bulged at Caroline's statement then took her hand once again "Well love then, there is no time like the present to start. Let's begin by getting your belongings from where ever they may be and getting you settled in with me. After all, you can't really woo me, as you say, if you weren't within my proximity, tending to me, my every whim. My every beck and call"
Caroline smiled "So, you are really going to make me do all those things? To prove myself to you?"
Klaus suddenly lowered his lips to kiss Caroline in her forehead "Ah, my Caroline, if you "love" someone, would you do anything for that person, to remind him everyday that you "love" him?"
Caroline let out a nervous laugh "I didn't say anything about "love" Klaus"
Placing his palm in her check Klaus very slowly said "ah but, the only way to win 'all of me' is by loving me with your whole being, mind, body, heart and soul. All of you for all of me. I won't settle for anything less, My Caroline". Before Caroline had even time to react to that statement, Klaus had swooshed then back to the front of the bar, asking for her car keys and proceeded to drive them back to his Mansion.
After settling her into the next door bedroom, Caroline took the time to unpack and take a long well deserved shower. Dressing for bed, she decided to put on one of her newly purchased sexy lingerie and before she could talk herself out of what she was about to do quickly exited her door and found herself in front of Klaus bedroom door.
About to knock, the door was suddenly opened and she was face to face with Klaus. Trying to sound as casual as she hoped she looked, she stepped into the room and haltingly told him "well there is no time like the present to start" and walked the past few steps and got into Klaus bed.
Klaus then turned off the lights, laid down on the bed beside her and challenging said "your move love".
Really, he was going to make me do this! Caroline said to herself. She then proceeded to awkwardly straddle Klaus, her legs on either side of his lower torso. Very slowly, she lowered her lips to his, tentatively moving against his. After a minute of testing the waters, Klaus opened his mouth inviting Caroline to slip her tongue inside and soon after found herself in a passionate make out with him venting all her frustrations in the last couple of weeks into the kiss. The moan she heard from Klaus was a sign he was as unhinged as she was but was still making her do the work. She changed strategy and started sensually trailing kisses first on Klaus neck and making a path first at his left nipple, sucking it hard until she again felt Klaus arms tighten around her. Not wanting his other nipple to be left out, she transferred her ministrations to the other one, licking and sucking it until it was hard. Hearing Klaus undone this way, he after all was chanting her name like every few seconds like he was in a trance, gave Caroline the confidence to venture lower to the obviously aroused, very long and hard part of his anatomy. Her first lick of his tip sent Klaus to a strange and unfamiliar place, as if there was only him and Caroline.
Not wanting to finish so quickly, he lifted Caroline back on top of him and took her lips in another scorching kiss "My Caroline, promise me that you are mine and mine alone."
Caroline lifted her eyes to his and stared into the very soul of Klaus "I am yours. Only yours. Niklaus Mikaelson" and proceed to bury herself in Klaus, pounding relentlessly as if her whole life depended on this moment. And maybe it did, because there was no looking back for her. The spell may have triggered her into action to come to Klaus but Bonnie was right when she said she was already falling for Klaus.
As the night turned into the early morning, they continued with their lovemaking only stopping from exhaustion. In the aftermath of the best night of Klaus' 1,000 years, he was unconsciously stroking Caroline back while recalling the conversation they had in the forest. Could she really be ready for an eternity with him, was it too soon knowing that she was so young. Even in human years she would only be 20 years of age, an age where a typical young woman would be exploring and defining herself to young to be tied down. While he had lived for the moment she would finally come to him and declare her love for him, centuries of self-doubt couldn't yet let him fully experience true happiness at this moment. Should he dare to bask in this sensation that was creeping into every fiber of his being or should be listening to the few lingering uncertainties in his mind. Feeling spent and worn out both physically and mentally he drifted into sleep into the arms of his Caroline.
Caroline slowly opened her eyes and sensed unfamiliarity around her. After recalling her activities a few hours ago, she rejoiced in the feeling of the comfort in this very moment, waking up still wrapped around the arms of her one true love, protected from all the worries of the world. This big bad hybrid was also her big soft, cuddle-loving, perfect lover and dare she say "boyfriend". Looking up she was happy to see a very relaxed Klaus still deep in slumber when her inner naughtiness crept in she slowly moved, hoping not to wake him yet, after all what kind of "girlfriend" would she be if she could give her "boyfriend" a proper wake up.
She started with light kisses in the neck and rubbed her cheek in the day old stubble and finally let her lips touch his soft, pink ones. The moan told her that Klaus was finally awake "is this what waking up next to you would be like, my love?" Klaus huskily asked.
Still planting kisses across his face, Caroline responded "well, this is how I intend to show you how much you mean to me. I am your lover, your best friend and I promise to take care of your heart forever."
Not used to declarations of the heart spoken so honestly after recalling his inner battle this morning with himself, Klaus made light of Caroline's statement and casually said "it's time we get up, we have a busy day ahead of us but first breakfast, my love?"
Although Caroline was a little disappointed she took the outstretched hand of Klaus as together they proceeded to the kitchen.
In a playful mood, Klaus sat down at the head of the massive dining table and dared Caroline to follow through with her promise to pamper him. "Woman, it is your duty to ensure that your man's stomach is full and satisfied at all time. Bring me some breakfast."
Caroline raised her eyebrow, typical of Klaus to take advantage of her promise to remove all lingering doubts in his mind of her "unending love and devotion" for him. Gazing around the kitchen she opened the cabinets and took out the ingredients and supplies she needed hoping that Klaus would appreciate her effort. She was after all not the greatest cook in the world her repertoire of dishes could be summarized into spaghetti and pancakes. Of course, since it was breakfast after all, then pancake it was. Happy she had found all the ingredients to make her pancakes, she found herself engrossed in mixing her batter when she was startled by a new voice.
"What is this?"
