Hello Readers... I'm cruel... I haven't updated i R.
So I hope you like this chapter.
P.S. your reviews were amazing.
"We're all here" Elijah smiled.
"All?" I gave him a questioning look.
"Yes, Me, Rebekah and Niklaus" Elijah said.
"Klaus is here" I gasped.
"I did say that, didn't I?" Elijah said.
"Oh"
"Caroline are you going to stand outside all night" Elijah asked.
"No, I'll go home, thank you again Elijah" I said.
"You know Caroline, you are more than welcome to stay with us" Elijah offered.
"No really, I have to work early and I'm staying with someone and if I don't turn up tonight she'll think I was kidnapped" I smiled, I was a terrible lying.
"Oh well I hope to see you around Caroline" Elijah said.
"And you too, Elijah" I said turning away when I remembered something "wait Elijah could you promise me something".
"What is it that you wish for me to promise" Elijah said soundly slightly confused.
"Could you not tell Klaus I'm in New Orleans?" I said trying not to sound to obvious.
"Is that all?" Elijah asked simply.
"Could you possible try and make sure that he doesn't find out I'm here?" I asked.
"And why is that Caroline, if I may ask?" Elijah said innocently.
"I want to get settled in before I have to deal with any… complications" I said trying to find the right words.
"Are you calling my brother a complication, Caroline?" Elijah asked.
"Wait no, I didn't mean it to come out like that" I said realizing I had just offered the Original family.
"Of course I will keep you presents as secret as I can" Elijah said.
"You will?" I said in disbelief.
"Yes, on one condition. If I end up in a box with a dagger in my chest for this, would you un-dagger me please?" Elijah smiled.
"Of course" I smiled, "well goodnight then Elijah".
"Goodnight Caroline" Elijah said and then he disappeared into the night.
"Sophie, I can only wash the dish so fast before I'm doing them at vampire speed" I yelled from the kitchen.
"Well then do them at vampire speed. We're opening in half an hour" I heard Sophie yell franticly from the bar.
"Yes well, I thought you told me to keep a low profile" I joked.
"Yes, but I'm also your boss and as your boss I'm telling you to hurry up" Sophie said.
"Okay, okay, I going at vampire speed" I said laughing, until I accidently dropped the plate I had in my hand.
"I hope that wasn't a plate I heard smash" Sophie said.
"No, it was a vase" I said sarcastically.
"Quick, clean it up, there is a dash pan and broom in the back" Sophie said coming into the kitchen.
"Sophie"
I froze, I knew that voice. That accent, it sounded so familiar. Klaus.
"Klaus, what do I owe the pleasure?" I heard Sophie answer, her sarcastic tone clear.
"I was wondering…" I heard Klaus trail off
"Klaus I am not your personal babysitter" Sophie said sounding filtrated. Babysitting, what was she talking about?
"Sophie I have business that I need to take care of" Klaus said starting to argue.
"I have to work to keep this place going" Sophie argued back
"Then get one of your staff to watch him" Klaus said. Him… who was he?
"This is that last time" Sophie said finally giving in.
"Thank god, it was you or Rebekah and you know what would happen if Rebekah watched him" Klaus said, his tone slightly lighter.
"You lucky that he isn't as evil as you or I would have never agree to this" Sophie said sounding angry.
"Make sure he doesn't kill anyone Sophie" I heard Klaus say.
"I can only try, he is yours after all" Sophie said soundly a little happier. I heard the door open and close and Klaus was gone. I hadn't realized I'd been holding my breath. I took a deep breath in and walked out into the bar.
"Caroline could you watch him please" Sophie said pointing towards a chair. I could see anyone sitting there.
"Who is he?" I asked.
"Henrik, isn't he cute and a lot less evil than his father" Sophie smiled and I walked towards the chair.
"Father?" I said sounding confused.
"Yes Henrik's father, Klaus" Sophie said, I stopped in my tracks and turned back to Sophie.
"Klaus…" I said in disbelief. Klaus a father…
"You know Klaus" Sophie said curiously.
"I've heard of him" I said quickly.
"Yea well this is his son" Sophie walking towards the chair and picking up a small boy.
"I never pictured Klaus as a father" I said.
"Yes well I need you to watch him for me" Sophie said handing Henrik to me. I took him in open arms.
"Can I ask, do you know who the mother is?" I asked.
"I never heard him mention her name" Sophie shrugged.
"Well can I meet her or something?" I said trying to sound uninterested.
"She died, giving birth to Henrik" Sophie said.
"She must have loved Henrik" I said, I felt slightly sad for Henrik. Imagine never being able to meet the women who gave her life up for you. It made the pit of my stomach ache; I remember my dad and that I would never see him again. I was pulled out of my daze when Sophie said "I believe she did".
"Do you do that connection between the two of them, Klaus and the mother I mean?" I asked. Had Klaus moved on…?
"From what I believe, Their relationship was a one night stand that went wrong. I don't think he every had feelings for her" Sophie said quickly.
"Wow, that's a lot to take in" I said.
"Yea, well I need you to watch Henrik tonight. Can you do that?" Sophie asked.
"Of course Sophie" I smiled.
"Good, now take Henrik upstairs while I get ready down here" Sophie commanded.
"Yes sir" I said sarcastically.
"Hurry up and get upstairs before he wakes up" Sophie said pushing me upstairs.
"Wait is he like half vampire, half werewolf…" I said confused.
"Well hopefully not because if he bites you, then you may end up dead and I don't want my best bartender dead" Sophie smiled.
"Is that all you can think of me, a bartender?" I said rising my eyebrow.
"Oh and a blood thirsty vampire" Sophie said sarcastically.
"Harsh Sophie and I thought we were becoming friends" I said trying to be overly dramatic.
"Hurry and get Henrik upstairs" Sophie said.
"Okay okay" I said and turned towards the stairs.
The upstairs room wasn't big. It was barely used so it only had a table, a few chairs. I place Henrik down. As soon as I sat him down he began to wake up. For the first time, I really got to see his face; he looked a lot like Klaus.
"Hello there Henrik" I said sounding like a cheesy babysitting with an up pitch voice "I'm Caroline".
I don't know why… maybe it was because he didn't know where he was or because he didn't know me but soon Henrik began to cry.
"No, no please don't cry" I said trying to calm him down.
"Do you want me to tell you a story?" I said hoping Henrik would understand me "I can tell you a story about Aunt Rebekah or Uncle Elijah". But Henrik just continued to cry, he reminded me so much of Klaus. If he didn't get what he wanted he would act out. "Oh my god, you are Klaus' son" I said, I didn't mean to say it out loud but it was true.
"Okay, okay I'm sorry. Shhh, shhh Henrik" I tried to soothe him. "You are just as impatient as your father" I said about to laugh.
"You're just glad it's me looking after you and not Aunt Rebekah". Rebekah would most likely take him shopping or something like that. Henrik had finally stopped crying. He yawned. He must be tired; he didn't look any older than a month.
"You know, your dad once asked me on a date. I said no" I laughed to myself, I looked over and Henrik who was almost asleep "well I guess he moved on" I shrugged.
"You really do look like your father. The curls in your hair and you dimples and your eyes, you have exactly the same eyes as him. Maybe you'll be your father redemption" I said. Henrik was completely asleep now. He looked so peaceful.
"Maybe one day you'll be a handsome as him or maybe even better looking" I smiled to myself. Thank god no one had actually heard me. Could you imagine what Elena would say, or Bonnie? Or Damon, I would never hear the end of it.
'hey Blondie, I knew you always had a soft spot for Papa Hybrid' I shuddered at the thought. I suddenly heard someone enter the room. I froze.
"Do you really think I am handsome, love?"
I'm awful... I know. leaving the story right there.
