Chapter 2: awkward, awkward, awkward...
Caroline's POV:
The sun was already high in the sky and I was in the same position that I had fallen asleep- on Klaus's chest, gazing at his features. Okay, ''gazing'' wasn't exactly was I was doing, staring was a better word for what I was doing, and who could blame me? He was probably the sexiest man in the world, who was in my bed...naked.
''And you said I was creepy, love.'' Klaus chuckled, keeping his eyes closed
''What? Oh, but you are creepy.'' I said teasingly.
Klaus opened his eyes and looked at me with his mischievous smirk and started hovering over me.
''Creepy. Hmm, are you sure, sweetheart?'' he said as he trailed his nose down my neck.
''Hmmm, yeah, really creepy,'' I half-moaned, he laughed and continued his ministrations. When he reached collarbone, he sucked on my pulse point and this time I moaned.
''And now?'' he asked smirking.
''You are the creepiest man I have ever met!'' I quipped.
''You don't seem to have a problem with that, though,'' he remarked.
''Oh, I wouldn't have you any other way.'' I said lovingly and kissed his nose. At first he was a bit taken off guard by the gesture, but he recovered and smiled at me.
We were so consumed with each other that we didn't hear someone fiddling with keys and opening the door.
''What. The. Hell!'' came Bonnie's voice. I immediately look to the door and saw Bonnie and Elena standing there with their mouths opened and eyes wide. For a moment, we were all just staring at each other. But then Elena decided to break the silence.
''Oh my god! My innocent eyes! Would you cover yourselves up, god, I am going to traumatized for life!'' Elena whined and covered her eyes. I quickly pulled the sheet higher to cover us.
''Eem..what. what are you doing here!?'' I asked flustered and tried to get my blush under control, because let me tell you, I was red as a freaking tomato, honestly. I mean this is one of these times when you know things are going to get very awkward, very fast. Here I was under the ''Big Bad Hybrid'' completely naked and my best friends were in the same room, trying to look anywhere but us, couldn't blame them either, they practically despised the guy.
''Well, we wanted to get our stuff and then go to class.'' Bonnie answered, blushing herself, but making no comment about our current position.
''Yeah, we weren't expecting you and Klaus here, naked.'' Elena said. I was a bit weirded out, didn't they hate guy? Shouldn't they be screaming at me, stupid and reckless I had been, still was? They were acting quite calm about it, well leaving out the fact that me, Elena and Bonnie were furiously blushing.
When I looked at Klaus, he was grinning like an idiot, not the least bit embarrassed. Was he actually happy that we got caught? Oh, of course he was! Damn him, he was enjoying this, wasn't he?! Was it some kind of wolf thing? Nonetheless I punched him in the chest and told him to stop smiling and take this seriously.
''How could I do that, love?'' he asked innocently, ''Now that they know that you're mine. Everything is bloody perfect.'' he added huskily. I rolled my eyes at him, so it was a wolf thing!
''Okay, well this is weird, so we're just going to go..'' said Bonnie.
''Yeah, and I think we're not going to come back tonight so..eem..don't break anything or something. ''Bye!'' Elena added and both of the girls walked out, not giving me a chance to say that wouldn't be necessary.
''Oh. My. God!'' I exclaimed and buried my face in the pillow, ''that was the most awkward conversation I have ever had!'' I said miserably.
''I think it went great.'' Said Klaus, ''I mean they didn't throw anything at me or try to stake me or anything.'' he said, laughing. I considered his opinion and couldn't help but to agree. Besides the awkwardness, they took it quite well.
''You're right.'' I agreed and smiled.
''Of course I'm right, now where were we, love?'' he said, getting on top of me once again.
''Hmm, as much as I would love to stay in bed with you for the rest of the day, I need a shower or a bath. Haven't decided yet.'' I said and got up and moved towards the bathroom.
He groaned and fell back on the pillows.
''You coming or not?'' I asked him innocently and smiled.
He was up from the bed like lighting, throwing me over his shoulder and walking to the bathroom. I was giggling like an idiot and begging him to put me down, but he was having none of that...
Klaus's POV:
When she said she had to get shower, I'll admit I was a bit disappointed. But when she turned around and asked me if I was coming or not.. well, let's just say that, I haven't got out of bed that fast in ages. I picked her up, ignoring her begs for me to put her down, and carried her to the bathroom. I set her on the edge of the bath and ran us a bath.
Finally we were settled in the bath, nice and cozy, her back against my chest and my arms around her waist, just enjoying each others warmth. But the guilt inside, it was eating me alive, I had to tell her truth.
''Love?''
''Mmmyeah?'' she mumbled.
''I have to tell you something'' I confessed.
''What is it?'' she asked turning around so we were pressed together from the front and looked me in the eye.
''Well, it's..well.. I promise you it meant nothing and it was a stupid, stupid mistake, okay!'' I stammered.
''What did you do, Kill a puppy or something?'' she laughed but I remained serious.
''Ookaay..stupid joke, I know.'' she admitted, ''what did you do then?'' she asked, getting curious.
Well, here goes nothing, I thought.
''I slept with Hayley. I swear to you it meant absolutely nothing to me, she was just there and I was a bit frustrated, because you were still rejecting me and it just kind of happened!'' I prattled. She tensed and I got really worried that she would never forgive me. But then she just sighed and answered.
''I was with Tyler then, so I can't really blame you. I mean I wasn't celibate so why should have you been.'' I had to admit that she had a point, but it still didn't make me feel better about myself.
Okay, one down, one to go, I thought.
''See, love, here's the thing.. She got pregnant and I'm the father.'' I half whispered.
''What? Wait, rewind! Pregnant? Seriously? How is that even possible?'' she almost shrieked.
''It kind of is, love. It's complicated, but basically when I became a hybrid, I became half-vampire and half-werewolf and since werewolves can procreate..you know.'' I tried explaining to her.
She took deep breaths, trying to calm herself.
''Okay.'' she said. That was a reaction I did not, in any way, expect, but Caroline always had a way of surprising me.
''So you're okay with it?'' I asked cautiously.
''I'm not sure. I mean, don't get me wrong, I hate the she wolf, but you have a chance to be a father and that's a huge thing!'' she said calmly, ''I don't approve that you chose her, of all people, but I can't do anything about it so I guess congratulations are in order.'' she sighed.
''I didn't exactly choose her.'' I defended, ''If I could have chosen a mother to my child, she would be at the end of the list and you would have been the first'' I said as I kissed her lips.
She blushed and snuggled closer to me and closed her eyes. We didn't touch the Hayley subject for the rest of our bath together.
I'll leave it at that, for the moment.:D
