Caroline couldn't believe what had just happened, she was in complete shock and she knew should that the bite was from a werewolf as it wasn't healing .She stared to come to terms with the fact that she would die and she knew she would have to call Stefan and tell him that she couldn't leave with to start their new lives. She picked up the phone and started dialling trying t keep calm and keeps her tears at bay. He answered almost straight away.
"Caroline what's up, are you done packing?" he asked. She paused for a moment trying to keep it together.
"Caroline ..." he repeated.
"Stefan I can't come with you" she said firmly.
"What do you mean, you're not back with Tyler after everything he has done are you?" he questioned.
She laughed at his question, thinking as if she would do that.
"Oh god no It's not definitely not that" she said.
"Well then what is it, you were so excited a few hours ago, what's changed?" he asked.
"I can't go because I am going to die, I was attacked and bit by a werewolf" she replied.
"Wait there I'm coming over "he said "No Stefan you don't have to..." she tried to say but he hadn't already hung up.
She felt terrible involving him in more drama, he had seen too much of that lately and she really wanted to spare him anymore. She sat down and the end of her bed holding her legs close to her chest as the tears rolled down her face .She didn't want to die she wanted travel and see the world and more importantly she wanted to love again and have her happy ending but that was all taking away from her now. She knew the only chance she had of living was for Klaus to save her but how could she ask that of him when she had rejected him and been a party to some many attempts to kill him .She thought that he had properly moved on now and forgotten all about her after all she was just a small town girl from Mystic falls and he was the most powerful being that lived. That was it she had decided she would have to die and there was nothing that could be done. With that Stefan raced into the room and sat in front of her pulling her tight into his embrace attempting to comfort of her.
"Who did this Caroline?"He quizzed
"I don't know I must not be as popular as I thought" she joked.
"Its not funny Caroline I can't loose you, you are I have left" she shouted
"I know but there is nothing else I can do I never seen who it was it happened so quick and before I knew it they were done ,my only guess is it was Hayley ,I know she hated me after the other day" he replied
"Well then I'm going to go find her and kill her" he said
"No Stefan I don't want to be alone just stay with me until the end" she pleaded.
They were silent for a few moments she could tell from the look on Stefan's face what he was thinking, she was praying he wouldn't say it; she really didn't want to spend her last few hours arguing with him.
"Caroline you know what you to do don't you?" he asked.
"There is nothing to do Stefan, this is the end for me" she sobbed.
"You know he would save you, he is obsessed with you" he said.
"I can't do that Stefan, things didn't exactly end well for us that last time we spoke" he said.
"None of the matters now, do really want die because your stupid pride" he barked.
"It's not about pride it's about not wanting to use him everything I have a problem it's not fair" she rebuked.
"What about all the things he has done to us?" he pleaded with her.
"And what about the things we have done to him, I know he has done horrible things and I'm not excusing him but we have tried to kill him so many times and we killed his brother and all he ahs show me is kindness I cant just forget that Stefan" she said with her head hung low she didn't want him see how she felt about Klaus and it was written all over face.
"Do you like him Care?" he asked.
"This really isn't a time for judging me Stefan it's kind of been a shit day if you haven't noticed" she said disgruntled.
"I'm not judging you I just want you to be careful" he replied
"There is not to be careful about because there is nothing even going on ,I'm not even sure how I feel about him, now can we talk about something else and take my mind off this pain please?" she begged.
"Care I'm sorry I can't do that I cant just sit here and watch you die" he shouted.
"Well then leave Stefan if you cant respect my wishes" she said angrily.
"Care you don't mean that" he said. He knew her too well it was all a front she needed him more than ever and fell into his arms.
"Oh Stefan I don't know what to do" she cried
"Shhh Caroline it's going to be okay" he said.
He held her for a while not saying anything just wiping the tears away from her face and soothing her when the pain became too much. Hours had passed and he knew that she wasn't going to last much longer and he wanted so badly to just pick her up and take her to Klaus but he tried to understand that it wasn't that she wanted. She had drifted off to sleep when he heard footsteps behind him at Caroline's bedroom door he jumped up in defence mode but to his surprise it was Klaus, he didn't know whether to angry or elated. Caroline had just woken up and couldn't believe what she was seeing, how could Stefan betray her like this.
"Stefan how could you" she shouted "I trusted you and you bring him here". She tried to get up but she was too weak and she didn't have any fight left in her.
"Well hello to you too love" Klaus announced.
"Caroline you have to believe me I had nothing to do with this" he begged.
"Well then how did he know then" Caroline questioned.
"Well I believe I can elaborate on that if I may, I got a rather frantic call this evening informing me that my beautiful Caroline hadn't been bitten by a werewolf" he said
"Don't call me that I'm not yours, you don't own me" she said
"Ah no love don't be like that, don't you want my help" he replied.
"What and be in debt to you again, maybe it's my time to die" she said.
"I can assure you its not love, I still have to show you the world" he smirked.
"Wait a second who called you" Stefan interrupted.
"Properly one of his creepy Hybrids stalking me when he can't" he smirked
Angry had filled Klaus' eyes he didn't like the way she was speaking to him when all he wanted to do was help, why shouldn't she see that.
"I don't think you want to know love and don't worry it wont matter much longer as they will soon be dead, problem solved" He growled.
"Klaus tell me who it is ...is it the Hayley bitch" she asked.
"Why would Hayley attack you or have I missed something" he asked.
Caroline went silent and she studied Klaus face and she seen the penny drop for him.
"Ah I see Tyler has not been a good boy, you do realise if he was still sire to me I would never let him hurt you like that" he remarked.
Caroline didn't know whether she should be touched by that, this whole situation was messed up on so many levels.
"Can we stop with all this talk in case you haven't noticed Caroline hasn't got long left and I want to know who did this to her so I can kill them" Stefan shouted.
There was a pause as Klaus thought about how to deliver the news as she knew it would devastate Caroline. He knew he had to just say it direct she deserved to know the truth for once.
"It was Tyler .I'm so sorry Caroline I don't want to hurt you and believe me he will pay with his live for what he has done to you"
Caroline was speechless, why would he do that to her, she struggled to comprehend what Klaus was saying to her. She suddenly felt a searing pain from her neck and with that she fell backwards. The last words she could her were from Klaus.
"Caroline Sweetheart wake up ..."
