Caroline hit the dismiss button on her alarm clock that she had set last night for 8:00 am. Even though she was confused about last night's events, she was extremely excited for her first day in college. Just as she was wondering as to when Elena and Bonnie would come to pick her up, Elena calls her telling her that Bonnie and her were coming in 10 minutes with Starbucks.
When Bonnie and Elena arrived at Caroline's house, they bought her a Caramel Frap with Java chips, Caroline's favorite. Caroline was about to greet them but was interrupted by Elena shouting of "TYLER KISSED YOU AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN TELL ME! And here I was bringing you your daily shot of caffeine."
Caroline and Bonnie couldn't help but laugh at Elena and Caroline told her the whole story of what had happened while they were choosing their outfits and doing their makeup. "I don't know Care, if you didn't feel that spark with Tyler when you guys kissed, then you shouldn't feel guilty for not liking him the way he likes you." Elena stated once Caroline told her how guilty she felt for leading Tyler on.
"But Elena don't forget the poor guy did love her for the past 11 years." Bonnie interjected.
"So? What's the big deal?" Elena snorted.
"It's 11 years for Christ's sake how can she say no to that." Bonnie argued.
"Why are you so adamant about pushing Caroline to Tyler, Bonnie?" Elena questioned with suspicion.
"I don't know. I guess that I feel sorry for him," Bonnie replied. But the truth was she did know why. He saved her from Shane during their junior year together when she went to a college party without her two best friends. She thought that she was in love with Shane but her memories of that night proved her wrong. Nobody but Tyler and Bonnie knew what had happened to Shane that night. For that Bonnie felt that she owed her life to Tyler.
"Okay girls stop. I just need to let Tyler down slowly and hopefully we can still be the way that we were before last night happened." Caroline said.
"Yeah right," both Bonnie and Elena snorted.
"Hey girls," Bill Forbes yelled on the other side of the door, "your going to be late if you keep gossiping." The girls looked at the clock and saw that it was 10:00 am and their homeroom class started at 10:15 am.
"Crap!" all three girls groaned.
The girls were only 5 minutes late to class and Mr. Mikaelson shot them a look. "Ladies, I take this class seriously and if you're late again I will have to ask you to leave." he said in his British accent. A look of lust came over Elena as she checked out Mr. Mikaelson. Caroline and Bonnie couldn't help but hold back a chuckle as Mr. Mikaelson glared at them."As I was explaining before, this class is English Composition 101. Now you guys will have to read at least 6 books mentioned in the list I am going to hand out by the end of this month, where I will then test you on your knowledge. You guys will then have to either act out or write a composition on one the classical literatures. I will elaborate more when the time comes. Any questions?"
Nobody raised their hand but instead were distracted by the man who came in. He had sandy blond hair with ice blue eyes. Caroline could tell that underneath his henley, he had the body of a Greek god. Bonnie nudged her to the side as Caroline was staring openly with her mouth open. The mysterious man sat down in front of Caroline where he introduced himself as Niklaus Mikaelson even though Mr. Mikaelson didn't ask for his name. The man had a British accent as well and Caroline wondered if her was related to the professor. He turned around and winked at Caroline as she was still gaping him causing her to blush because of her openness.
Tyler stared at Caroline looking at Niklaus with a surge of jealousy going over him. He had competition and he didn't like the way she looked at him. She didn't seemed to notice that he was even in the same homeroom as her, only made possible with his father's connection.
"Okay class, seems like the introduction is over and luckily for you, class ends in 2 minutes." Mr. Mikaelson stated.
"Hello class. I am Mr. Saltzman and this is Acting 306 for all those that intend to major in acting." Mr. Saltzman introduced. Caroline was surprised that Niklaus and Tyler were in her class. She had wanted to avoid Niklaus after her embarrassing moment today. Then there's Tyler. She had wanted to avoid talking to him for as long as possible, but it seems as though fate wasn't by her side.
"Since this is acting class, we will first introduce ourselves and say something about our selves." Mr. Saltzman said. "You first..." pointing to Tyler.
Tyler stood up and looked at Caroline. "My name is Tyler Lockwood and my dad is the mayor of Mystic falls. I have been in love with the same girl for the past 11 years."
Niklaus, noticing how Tyler stared at Caroline put the pieces together and stood up.
"My name is Niklaus Mikaelson, but call me Klaus," then he suddenly looked at Caroline and said "and I think this is going to be a very interesting class." Winking at Caroline.
Caroline blushed and looked down suddenly finding the floor very interesting.
All eyes were on Caroline when it was finally Caroline's turn to introduce herself after the seven students before her had went. "Hi, my name is Caroline Forbes and I intend to move to Hollywood after I graduate."
