**Stefans pov
i heard a knock at the door and a man was standing there with his hands behind his back and a smirk on his face. "may i help you" i ask.
" My name is Klaus. its a shame you dont remember me, we used to be old commrades" klaus says.
" i read the journals" i said while rolling my eyes " come in".
"wheres Caroline mate?"
"upstairs in her me" i gesture him to follow me. Caroline left her door open and when i walked in with Klaus trailing me i stopped near the bed Caroline was on the bed asleep with the baby. in the corner of my eye i see Klaus' face change and then recovers and remasks himself but he was still staring at Caroline holding the baby in her arms alseep. i walked over to Caroline.
" hey Care" i poked her arm" wake up" she smiled and moaned Klaus. it instantly got awkward.i looked up at klaus who had a smirk plastered to his face and i rolled my eyes, trying to hold my laughter in just thinking how embarrassed she will be when he inevitably brings it up to her. "Caroline, Klaus is here" and i shake her softly. she opens her eyes and focuses sitting up.
"hey stef" she turns her head and sees klaus and she jumps out of bed. klaus chuckles and she glares at him.
" hello love" klaus says. my q to leave.
**Caroline pov
i jumped up and fixed my shirt since i was laying down my chest was exposed due to the low V and the fact that my bra already showed when it was normal. i looked back up and klaus was staring at me.
"Klaus, seriously, what are you doing here. you didnt have to come i am fine. really"
he chuckled."yeah last night you were completely fine" i rolled my eyes at him. i looked back at the bed and laid back down grabbing the pillows from the opp side of Rawlins and i moved them. i laid back in my spot and gestured for klaus to sit where the pillows were on the bed. i am still so tired. i need more blood i shouldnt feel this drained. he lays on the bed and i turn to him on my side.
"thanks for coming, but i thought you were in some war in New Orleans"
"i am but elijah has it under control for now" klaus said putting his hands behind his head.
"oh,you can stay here if you would like. i mean until you decide to leave, i have a guest bedroom. stefans room is on the other side of the house in his wing but theres a few rooms over in this side" i ask him.
"thanks love." i nodd at him.
"my very first house. what do you think?"
"very impressive for an 19 year old."
"compulsion helps" i laugh and he joined. i looked down at rawlins, at his dark brown full head of hair and small little hands and i rolled over on my back and picked him up to my chest and laid him on me, his stomach down. i feel klaus staring at me and i look at him.
"what?" i ask him and he shakes his head." when i was human i had my whole life planned out" i glanced at him again since he was still starring. then i looked back at the ceiling and continued. "me, elena, and bonnie were going to go to college together. i was going to get my dream job and house meet a man, fall in love and adventually have kids. the typical small town dream, i guess. when i became a vampire i had to face the facts. i will never be able to give anyone a child, whoever i end up with. even if i live long enough. so now with Rawlins i feel like i am getting my one chance and i am not going to let it slip away from me, even if i wish it wasnt so soon. whats 18 years to a vampire who has eternity at her fingertips" i said confidently."what about you have you thought of ever having kids. i mean it must have crossed your mind at least once throughout the last 1000 years"
"Caroline theres something i need to tell you." i look at him and his face is a mixture of emotions." hayleys pregnant and she claims it to my child" so much about beating around the bush. he was silent for a while, starring at the ceiling and glancing at me.
" what you slept with wolf slut. seriously.?" i yelled.
" Caroline why are you mad? we werent together you kept shutting me down remember. i tried. i am trying sweet heart" why am i mad we are friends. right? i looked away not wanting to look him in the eyes while i gather my emotions.
"i dont know, because you slept with Hayley" i sneered her really has to keep sleeping with people. first tyler and now klaus, shes on a roll and normally i wouldnt care about anyone being sexually active alot with whoever whenever but seriously! i got off the bed and walked over to the balcony with Rawlins in my arms. i just need to collect myself and think. klaus walked behind me. i took in a deep breath and sighed.
"klaus im sorry" i said while rolling my eyes.
"for what?" he asked.
" for snapping at you, i have zero right to be angry at you. i just seriously dont like her"
" trust me im not happy about it either love. she was just a drunken tryst."
" you know for a guy over a thousand years old, i wouldve thought you would have known something called safe sex"
he smirked likeing the change of subject. "believe me Caroline when it comes to the sex compartment, i know what i am doing, being a thousand years old and all" he winked at me. my breath hitched and i tried not to shiver.
" like i said i am to smart to be seduced by you" i said trying to cover up the fact that it really was working. it doesnt help when he looks so good with his black shirt and dark blue jeans on and the necklaces hanging over or his accent. look away Caroline, i demanded myself.
" clearly" he said and i huffed at being caught.
"i have some shopping i need to do." i said suddenly
"okay?"
"do you want to come?" he gave me a look."suck it up...no pun intended" i grabbed his hand and forced him to come before he could protest. i looked at him and he was just smirking. i dragged him into the living room where stefan was." hey stef you wanna come shopping with me and klaus"
"ugh no thanks, ill watch Rawlins, if you want" stefan said standing from the couch.
"sure thanks" i say.
" why does he get to stay?" klaus asked and stefan replied before i could.
" because i went yesterday." he gestured to everything all around the house.
" stop being such cry babies. come on" i put my blue heels back on as i leaned on the couch for support and walked out side with klaus following me. i turn to him. "we are taking your car. its bigger."
"darling we wouldve taken my car anyways. im driving" klaus said pulling out his keys
"whats that suppose to mean" i ask walking to the passenger side. he opened the door for me and i hopped in and waited for him to come around the car.
"it means i am the man, i am driving"i shook my head at him but let it drop too tired to really care.
we got on the highway and went towards the mall again. i looked out the window, the town looks good from afar.
"caroline how are you doing with everything?"he asked and i dodge it.
" Klaus how are you doing with the whole 'im gonna be a daddy' thing?" he looked at me and i smirked. two can play that game. i sighed, i might as well tell him.
" me and tyler broke up." i looked at him.
" i figured that. why?" he asked.
"you" he looked at me with an eyebrow up.
"he said something like we were only together because you granted us permission to be together. somemore things were said. i walked off then he was in the dorm packing his things."
a tear dropped from right eye but i removed it before klaus noticed." so i told him if he took one more step that there wouldnt be anymore chances that we would be done. i told him to love me more than what he hates you and he couldnt do it. he walked out. i think he was seeing someone else anyways" i shrugged.i am honestly not feeling to bad about it anymore. the only pain i am really feeling is bonnie.
"caroline i-"
"klaus it wasnt you, it was his choice. anyways, apparently bonnies been dead since graduation."
"and i am assuming that since the veil was down thats how she managed to be there for the event?" he asked.
"yeah, apparently she did a spell to make sure when the veil went back up jeremy would come back but it took to much from her." i looked out the window holding my breath. i will not cry. i repeated it over and over again."anyways lets change the subject. speaking of graduation you knew hayley was pregnant then right?"
he was suddenly cautious. this was a bear trap and he knew it." i did"
" then why didnt you tell me then?" i asked in a whisper.
" because i didnt know how you would react, love"
"so even though you are having a child with another woman, you were promising me the world" i narrowed my eyes at him.
" Caroline my interest were, no, are always on you. i dont care for her in the least. the only reason she is still breathing is because of elijah and bekah and my child."
"klaus i am scared." i looked up at him.
"what are you scared of?"
i sighed and fumbled with my hands and looked out the window.
"caroline"
" stop with the accent, you drive me crazy klaus, okay? im scared because i have feelings for you. i keep trying to push them away but it is you that i am always thinking about and its driving me mad." i stare straight ahead and he wasnt even paying attention to the road anymore and he almost wrecked.
i had to grab the wheel. he recovered and grabbed my hand but he was silent. i bit my lip. great this shopping trip is going to be really awkward. i am a woman on a mission though and i will get this done whether hes awkwardly standing behind me or not.
he pulls up to the walmart parking lot and i get out and look straight down to the ground as he comes around the car i grab my purse before shutting the door. he clicked the button and the car beeped. i started walking but he caught up and put his arm around my shoulder i peeked up from my lashes and he had a smirk on his lips. i rolled my eyes.
its time to get down to business. i grabbed a cart then he grabbed a cart and followed behind me.i walked straight to the baby section. first lets pick out a crib. i found one with a cherry wood color and it grows with the child, three steps. crib, toddler bed and twin size. it comes with the crib mattress but ill have to purchase the toddler and twin mattress when the times right. i looked over at klaus and he was just staring at me silently.
"what are you starring at?"
"you" he says and i blush.
"well stop, creep" i say but smiled.
i walk over to the play pin and grabbed one that had the same cherrywood feel to it and then the changing table. klaus walked up behind me and grabbed it from me.
" what are you doing?" i ask him when he takes the changing table out of my hands.
" its heavy m'ladie, like i said its the mans job" i rolled my eyes at another of his sexist remarks.
"seriously?" he just smirks and puts it in the cart. i went over to the crib sheets and blankets. i decided on lion king for the design on his room. i grabbed him blankets spit up raggs and clothes, stroller. a new carseat that matches the stroller. i went and basically grabbed one of eveything in the baby section. i found this blanket and it had an R on it one side was silk and the other was fuzzy. it was green. the carts were completely filled and we werent done.
" i think i should check this out before we get more. i want to put the big things in the car first to make sure theres enough room before i continue."
" okay." klaus says. we walk up to the cash register and she checks everything out.
"are you expecting?" the woman asked.
i looked at her."ugh no i just adopted a son and now i am just preparing."
"well congratulations both of you." the woman says while she looks up at Klaus.
" oh hes -" i start to say but klaus cuts me off.
" thank you" is all he says. i look at him and he just shruggs.
i grab my purse and grabbed the card and handed it to the woman. she swiped it and handed it back and thanked us for coming.
we load up klaus huge black escalde and we only filled the trunk part up we still had the entire back seat. which is good because i still need to get more things. i turn to walk back to the store but stop and look at him.
" you dont have to come back in or stay with me. afterall all the heavy lifting is done. anyways you must be bored. you can walk around or something or wait in the car?"
" nope im fine love" i shrugged and continued walking. i went to the home section and grabbed paint brushes primer and light green paint. then i grabbed green sparkles that i can mix into the paint.
i walked over and grabbed lion king stickers for the walls for afterwards.
i walked to the toys section and grabbed the few lion king stuffed animals they had and i was finished with that.
we only had one cart now so i walked over to the grocery part and grabbed the list of food stefan wrote for me to get. i got everything on the list and checked out again. we loaded the car up and klaus put the cart away. we headed off back to the mansion.
we got to the house and stefan and Rawlins was asleep on the couch. i turned to klaus who was behind me and put my finger to my mouth to signal for him to be quiet he nodded .we put the food away first and put the paint stuff in Rawlins room and for now im leaving his furniture and stuff in the car untill the room is done.
stefan was dreaming of when he left mystic falls the most recent time.
flash back:
"ugh stefan there you are, we have been looking everywhere for yo-" i hear elena say from behind me while i was throwing some of my journals into the fire.
" what you doing there Brother?" Damon asks me.
"oh you know,just tieing up a few odds and ends" i tell him.
"are you sure you want to do that?" damon questions me as i throw more journals into the fire.
"well, i know what i dont want. i dont want to be the person in these journals anymore. i dont want to live in this house, i dont want my brothers advice," i turn my gaze to elena " i dont want to hear how i supported you elena and i definatly do not want to continue this conversation" i say while picking up my bag.
"stefan wait" elena starts to say but i cut her off in a bored tone.
" dont worry, i am not going to go on a ripper binge. beside Caroline said she would call me every hour to make sure i was okay, and ugh...i actually do trust her" i tell them both as i walk but i hear elena tell me to wait but i keep going then i hear damon say he thinks they got dumped causing me to roll my eyes. then elena says she needs bonnie and then i was gone.
i went to the spot where i attacked Jesse and waited for Caroline.
"how ya feeling" i hear her say as she walks closer to me.i sigh deeply.
" i am feeling better,which in my world means i havent commited homicide since the last time i saw you. im doing alot of thinking today, alot of wondering around and this seems the most appropriate place to come." i look at her and she isnt her normal bubbly self since i have remet her."whats wrong?" i ask her.
" its Bonnie, my friend, our friend" Caroline looks at me while she talks quietly " she's dead" i look down.
"ugh" i sigh " what-a, what happened?" i stutter out
"no please dont ask" she stops and takes a breath before talking again " because then i am going to have to try to come up with an answer, which means i am going to have to think about then ill start crying and i am afraid that i might never be able to stop" caroline sighs and sits down on the bench and looks straight forward. from everything i have read she has always been there for me its my turn now. i sit down on the bench next to her.
"i wish i could remember her" i say.
Caroline shakes her head no for a second "i dont know, part of me wishes i could trade places with you" she says and looks over at me. through her pain she still trys to plaster a small smile on her lips. i raise and eyebrow up real quick then look staright ahead again to the wall while she continues" because without all the memories, maybe it wouldnt hurt so damn much."
"its okay" i say to her. she shakes her head again.
"Its not. i am never going to see her again. and i have no idea where tyler is. i just got so used to them being there all the time a-and now what i am supose to just learn how to move on without them? how do i do that, when all i have is this saddness and this anger and-"
"ME, you have me. look you were there for me last night and it sounds like youre always there for me" i say to her and put my hand down on top of hers in a friendly comforting way. we both look at our hands for a second then i continue with "so let me be there for you,okay?" we look at each other seriously for a second then Caroline finally smiles.
flashback ended
i set the paint gallons down and turn to walk out but klaus was leaning against the door. i raised my eyebrow at him.
"what"
" you look beautiful today." i unconsiouly looked down and at my clothes and the first thing i see is the blue shirt i have on, i didnt even notice its almost the same shade of blue as klaus' eyes. you can see my black leather bra from the deep V. i blushed and when i looked up again he was infront of me and he put a hand on my waist and my breath hitched. i looked at his lips then i smiled at him.
"thanks Klaus, you dont look that bad either." he started to lean closer to me and i giggled pulling away and walked to my room. i went to my dresser and i grabbed a pair of black shorts that i would wear to cheerleading practices and i pulled my shirt over my head and i heard klaus foot steps stop in front of my door. that i left open. i turn to him with my shirt off and his eyes widen. i laughed and pulled my white tank top down.
" dont worry grandpa just think of it as a bathing suit" i am not ashamed of my body so i laughed again. i walked past him and pulled my hair up to a ponytail. i went to a closet in the hallway and grabbed some white sheets and walked to Rawlins room and set them down. i turn back to klaus.
"hey" i say getting his attention. he looks back up to me." where do you want to stay? this side or stefans?"
" this side will surfice. thanks" he smirked a me.
"okay" i grabbed his hand and walked over to his room across the hall from mine. i walk in and grabbed the sheets and blackets and made his bed for him. i didnt have time to make i earlier. i walked downstairs and started grabbing his suitcase when he took it from me so i grabbed whatever else he left behind and i followed him back up to his room and i set the things down." i hope you like it then" i said and i turned around.
" thank you Love" he says.
" i should be thanking you." i walked back to rawlins room and left klaus in his to do what he needed and i walked to the window and opened it. i could see a small little waterfall coming from the distance. i walk over to the sheets and i set them up over the wooden floors so they wouldnt get messed up. i grabbed the primer and the roller and started rolling it on. i started working my way around i got one wall down and klaus comes in. his hair wet and he smells good. he just got out of the shower. i look over at him.
" you going to bed?" i ask him and he nods." okay, well goodnight" i smile at him and put the roller down in the pan thing and walked to him and kissed him on the cheek.
"good night caroline"
i left him there and went to the kitchen and washed my hands. i dried them and walked to stefan i grabbed Rawlins and took him to my room without waking him and put him on the bed. i walked down to stefan and woke him up.
"stef hey you can go to your bed, im back now." he sat up."thanks for watching him"
" good night care" he said as he stood up. i leaned over and kissed his cheek and checked on Rawlins on the bed then i walked back to his room and continued.
i got the priming completely done by three. i walked to the kitchen and grabbed a glass and a bottle wine. i mixed my blood and wine together and just sat there. i have nothing else to do but wait till the primer drys it says only 2 hours.
i drank half the bottle and put my head down on my arm and few tears escaped. the last two days have been alot to handle. i feel like cracking. i sniffed a few times and pulled my head up i drank the rest the bottle and put it in the trash can. i found Bonnies picture and i put it in a frame and put it next to the picture of my Dad and lit a few tea light candles around it on a stand in the foyer.
i spotted my ipod and plugged it in my ears and was listening to maroon 5, i walked back to Rawlins room and it was dry i open the green paint and mix it then i pour the green glitter in with it and mix it up. i paint two walls still crying softly. i was just starting the third when i heard foot steps behind me. i looked at klaus and he walked toward me and wrapped me in a hug. i stood there in his arms for a minute and look up at him. i push him away.
"you should go back to bed" and i turn back to the paint, and ignore him. he walks over the room and grabs an extra roller and starts painting. i look at him." you dont have to"
" i like painting Caroline." klaus was smirking at me.
" okay" i let it drop and continued. we finished the room together by five. i left the window open to help it dry and i closed the bathroom door. i heard Rawlins crying and walked over to him with the bottle and gave it to him. i propt it up with his blanket and he started sucking on it.
his eyes drifted back i walked back to the bathroom and ran the water putting the scented bath oil in it with bubble bath in it. i sat down and washed myself than relaxed. i ended up falling asleep and then i hear klaus knock on the door.
"love are you in there." my eyes flew open as i remembered i fell asleep. i stood up and wrapped the towl around me. i opened the door to him in my room.
"yea i fell asleep" he sighed. his phone started ringing in his room and he got up before replying to me. i dropped the towl when he left and pulled on a night gown and i walked to my bed and covered up i brought rawlins up to my chest and held him there. i got bored and the song love somebody was stuck in my head so i started singing it.
"i know your insides are feeling so hollow.
And its a hard pill for you to swallow,yeah
but if i fall for you, ill never recover
if i fall for you, ill never be the same
i really wanna love somebody
i really wanna dance the night away
i know were only half way there
but you take me all the way, you take me all the way"
i looked down and Rawlins was smiling in his sleep so i continued.
"Youre such a hard act for me to follow
love me today, dont leave me tomorrow,yeah
but if i fall for you, ill never recover
if i fall for you, ill never be the same
i really wanna love somebody
i really wanna dance the night away
i know were only half way there
but you can take me all the way, take me all the way
i really wanna touch somebody
i think about you every single day
i know were only half way there
but you can take me all the way, you ucan take my all the way
oh oh, oh oh, oh oh,oh oh oh
i dont know where to start, im just a little lost
i wanna feel like were never gonna ever stop
i dont know what to do, im right in front of you asking you to stay, you should stay, stay with me tonight, yeah."
i heard a creak outside my door.
"klaus?" i asked cutting the song short. klaus opened the door looking busted.
" sorry love, didnt mean to eaves drop. you have a beautiful voice"
"thanks. you can come in." he came in and sat on the bed." i was just trying to keep my mind busy, that song was stuck in my head so i started singing it and Rawlins started smiling so i just kept going." i started rambling.
"im glad you did" klaus said and i smiled.
" so whats with the phone call. trouble with the mrs's?" he growled and i laughed.
"elijah was just checking in"
"oh." i sighed" klaus?"
"yes sweet heart?"
" i think i might be over my head with Rawlins, i dont think i can do this" i confessed.
"if anyone else can do it then i know you will excell at it." i leaned up and before thinking about it i kissed him on the lips. i pulled back fast.
"sorry. dont know what came over me" i lied, he smells like heaven i couldnt help it.i am weak. that was totally a human caroline move. a guy shows me the slightest attention and im ready to jump him.
he touched his lips and then the next second he was on top of me and rawlins he put his lips on mine and kissed me back, i smiled into the kiss and wrapped one arm around his neck and the other was still supporting Rawlins, he pulled away and laid back down on the bed.
" im not sorry" he smirked at me.
" okay, dont get too cocky now" i said back to him
" theres no such thing" i rolled my eyes at that and stood up. i forgot that i was in my night gown and his eyes popped. i set Rawlins on the bed and grabbed my robe off the vanities chair and pulled it on, grabbed rawlins and walked out of the room with klaus following suit behind me. i walk to the kitchen and headed straight for the coffee machine and press start so it starts brewing.
" klaus will you hold rawlins?" he looked at me like 'please dont make me do this'.
"ughh" he looked scared.
"klaus youre expecting your own child, stop being afraid. i know you know how to hold a baby" i tell him.
i hand him Rawlins." and how exactly do you know ive ever held a baby before.?" i walk close to him and grab one of his necklaces looking at it before i reply.
" because you have younger siblings" i smiled and walked away before he could protest.
i walked out to the car and grabbed the play pin. i brought it to the living room. klaus handed me rawlins and he put it together. i smiled at him.
" so are you ready klaus?"
" for what sweet heart?"
"for your child. you wont be here forever, your child will need you."
"the play thingys done" he swallowed hard and tried to changed the subject. i set rawlins down in the playpin and the tv and computer came on with a low white noise. i looked at it and it had writing come across the screen. big red letters. it said "hayleys not pregnant with klaus' baby.-kol"
i looked at klaus who was standing there with wide eyes. i look back at the screen and there was more writing. " im going to find a way back -bonnie" but the last part got to me. " i have seen the symbol before -k&b" and the screens went black.
i look at him again. "i dont know if i should be smiling or crying right now" he was silient for about a minute and i waited for him to come back from what ever planet his head was on. he grabbed his phone.
"Elijah are you with Hayley?"
"yes Niklaus what is the problem?" elijah asks.
"Compel her for me would you brother?"
"what do you want to know?"
" ask her if the child is really mine, it seems our dear brother kol had a message from the other side saying hayleys been lying" klaus sneers into the phone. i walk over to the couch and just wait. klaus is pacing the room.
'whose child does this baby belong to' i heard elijah say compelling hayley.
hayley replies back with 'tyler'
i bust up laughing and klaus just looks at me like i have lost it. i get up and walk out side still laughing.
" i assume you know how to take care of the girl now Lijah?"
"ill take care of her Niklaus" elijah said. and klaus shuts the phone and walks out to caroline who was pulling boxes of Rawlins furniture out of the car.
"what so funny love?" i stare at him.
"didnt you hear. tylers the dad" i laugh some more " you do the math klaus. we were together the whole time. which means he cheated on me like i thought he did, oh karmas a bitch. im sorry the childs not yours though." i say sincerely.
"ill be fine" he said and i stopped pulling boxes out and walk closer to him and i wrap my arms around his waist and i lay my head on his chest. he responds immediately and wraps his arms around me.
his arms felt so warm and strong, it felt like...home. i pulled away and bent and grabbed a box. i walked inside with klaus behind me with a few more boxes. i walk up to Rawlins room and i grab the wall sticker on and the lion king trim around the top of the wall.
i go back down stairs to grab the crib and i see klaus standing over rawlins playpin starring at him.i walked over to him and grabbed his hand, he looked at me. i leaned up and kissed him. he immediately kissed me back makinging it deeper.
he lifted me higher slightly so he wouldnt have to bend i flashed us to the wall and made the kiss fierce and then he flashed me to the wall pinning me i jump up and wrap my legs around his waist and wrapped my arms around his neck i tangled my hands in with his curls and i felt a slight cooling sensation on my arm where the symbol is i open my eyes and pull my arm forward and look at it and it glowed a little. like shining.
i stopped kissing him and stared at it a second and it stopped. i figured i was seeing things. he noticed my lack of focus and pulled away. he looked at me in the eyes holding me there with his gaze.
"whats wrong?" he asks.
" nothing i just thought i saw something, its nothing" i smile up at him. stefan walks in the room and freezes.
"mhm" i hear stefan clear his throat and i remember our position i drop my legs from around klaus and step towards stefan.
" morning stef" i give him a kiss on the cheek " want some coffee?"
"thanks care" stefan walks toward the playpin. klaus follows me to the kitchen.
"caroline, will you go out to dinner with me tonight?"
i freeze but smile. it wouldnt hurt. im done trying to pretend i dislike him. although lately i have been extra sweet to him.
"i would love to. you can pick me up at my door at 7" i smile up at him and peck his lips before turning away to hand stefan his drink.
"thanks care"
" no problem. you seemed to be having a fit in your sleep last night. are you okay?" i ask him.
" yeah, yeah i was just remembering me leaving mystic falls"
"oh ok" i turn to the play pin and pick it up taking it to the room. nah i think ill make them put the furniture together. i thought. i walked back down stairs. "so yall get some man work today. grab your hammers and screw drivers. you both are putting together rawlins furniture. get at it." klaus gave me a look like no thanks but i gave him a pouty lip and he sighed leaving with stefan behind him both holding a box. stefan had the changing table and klaus had the rocking chair.
i look back over at Rawlins face and i picked him up and changed his diaper and clothes. i made his bottle and put him back in the play pin while i open his swinging chair thing. i got it set up and put rawlins in it and he was looking all around. i set the speed to low and i grabbed the trash and threw it away.
i walked up stairs to my room and made my bed and grabbed my clothes from yesterday and when i was painting and put it into the hamper. i took my robe off and put on some jeans and a causal shirt. i walked across the hall to klaus' room. prepared too make his bed but he had already made it."mhm" was all i said as i closed the door and went back to my room. i pressed a button and a painting on the other wall popped open to a secret compartment and i grabbed the lion king blanket i had in there with other sentimental items. i closed the painting and walked out to Rawlins room and they were both finishing putting everything together. i looked around.
"nice you guys did a great job" i compliment them.
i grab the sheets and i put it on his crib. i grab the stuffed pumba and timon and simba, and put them on a self on his wall. i hung up some curtains. i plugged in the baby monitor and took the other part of it to my room. not that its needed with my hearing. i fold his other blankets and put them inside a drawer and put away all his clothes and supplies. as the final touch i pick up the little blanket that my grandma made and set it inside the crib. it had simba and his dad on it with bright colors and leaves.
i throw all the trash away and check the time. its 5:30. i had already asked stefan to watch rawlins while i go out and he seems really happy to watch him. i went to my room and got into a shower. i put on a black dress that was sweet heart neckline witha keywhole that went all the way down to right above my belly button. the back was cut out but it had two small straps going across it like =. and it was fitted all the way mid thigh in the front but in the back it flared longer down to my ankles and i had on black stockings. i put my bright red pumps on. and did my hair and make up. i was just putting on my earring when someone knocked on the door. i opened it finding klaus there with roses and a gift.
his eyes gazed down to my dress and kept his eyes locked there, i cleared my throat.
" thank you for the flowers and the gift" i took them in my room and i set them down on the desk." you look handsome tonight" i smiled at him taking in his appearance. however he always looks good so.
"you look extravagant" he says and swallows hard " you ready ?"
"i most certainly am ." he lifted his arm and i took it escorting me out the house. he opened his car door for me.
i smiled " what i dont get to drive" i said jokingly and he laughed. apparently where ever we are going is an hour away. so we had a lot of time. klaus' hand was on the shifter though it didnt need to be because the car is automatic so i took his hand in mine and looked at him. he smiled and i looked at our hands.
"so tell me about your childhood" i asked wanting to know more about him.
" my childhood isnt one that fits in the average bed time stories" he shrugged.
" i am taking a chance...getting to know you" he looked at me for a minute and debated on if he wanted to answer, i could tell he was fighting a war within himself. i squeezed his hand for encouragement. he looked straight ahead as he thought.
" i can show you instead. i can show you everything"
"how?"
" do you trust me?"
"maybe" i smiled at him jokingly. he pulls the car over and i stare at him.
"give me your hand and close your eyes" he puts his hands in mine. i take a deep breath but do as he says. next thing i know there are images in my head its like a video or im seeing somthng through someone elses eyes.
Klaus' Flashback:
i was sitting at the falls watching the water fall down and Henrik and Kol in the water. they were splashing around.
"come on niklaus getin join us, wont you?" Kol asks. i shake my head no to him.
" Yes Niklaus join us" henrik said and splashed me. soaking threw my white shirt. i look down "now youve done it Henrik" and i hurled my body into the water causing a big splash. i dunked Kol under the water.
"Nik close your eyes i bet you wont find me" Henrik says and i hold my hands out in front of me searching. i hear Henrik laugh behind me and Kol on my side. i turn around to Henriks voice and jumped forward to hear Henrik "over here" from infront of me.
"Henrik, Kol, Niklaus. mother sent me to fetch you for dinner" rebekah says walking to the edge of the water. i look over to Kol of was smirking at her. " you would not dare Kol" bekah said smiling as she stepped back seeing how Kol was about to splash her.
"enough" mikael stepped out off the path. "get out of the water". everyone froze at Mikaels voice.
"yes sir" all of us said at the same time.
"Niklaus are you too good to hunt? mhm boy?" mikael yells.
"mother told him to watch us father" henrik says trying to take the heat off of me. I look at him and shake my head at Henrik silencing him.
"of course not Father" i say focusing mikael back on me. i always took the blame for everything. me and kol were allways the least favorite to mikael. me at the very bottom.
"speak up boy, be a man" mikael yells.
"yes sir" saya little louder. he turns to look at kol,henrik and bekah.
"go back to the hut" mikael demands. i turn to join to feel leather slashing at my back i fell to my knees and grunted. my eyes watered but i wouldnt give mikael the satisfaction of seeing me cry. this was the usual. "wash up, boy" he said and i felt the blood run down my came to me and helped me stand" come on Nik, ill help you" i shook her off me.
"bekah go before he sees you helping me" i whisper to her.
"but Nik"
"Go" i say and turn to get back in the water. it burned where the water and the cut joined i gritted my teeth and waited for the blood to stop. i got out and walked back to the hut.
the next day me henrik and rebekah walk to a clearing i descovered where there where caves. we entered the caves.
"Nik the walls glimmer" bekah says.
" i know, i thought we could take some." i take my knife out and dug it in the wall with a popping clinking sound a rock hits the cave floor. i pick it up and put it into my pocket. i go all around the cave and grab as many pieces as i could find i had twenty rocks. bekah and henrik helped me carry them out.
i dropped them on the forest floor and sat down, henrik and rebekah sat down around me and looked at the colorful rocks.
"look at all the colors nik" bekah says and picks up a ruby red rock. Henrik picks up a green one and i pick up a blue,purple, pink, and white one.
" you both can have the rest, i have an idea." i say and stand up i ripped off a piece of string from my shirt and i wrapped it around the purple rock. i take another piece and tie it around the rocks making each rock its own neck lace i hand bekah the pink on.
" i love it nik, this is genius. and its so pretty. " she puts in around her neck but hides it under her clothes, still smiling.
" and for you my baby brother" i say handing Henrik the purple one. he puts it on and shoves his around his neck and puts it under his shirt.
" thank you klaus" henrik says and hands me the green one that he made." this is for you"
" thank you henrik, i say it brings my eyes out" i joke with him i put the blue one with gold specks that looked in the shape of a tear drop it was the size of a coin, around my neck and the white one on as a necklace as well. the white was an opal it had many colors shining off of it in many different directions." we will never take our gifts off. Always and forever"
"always and forever" bekah and henrik say at the same time.
" now lets get back before father unleashes another rath unpon niklaus" bekah says and we all stand up and start heading back to the hut.
flashback ends:
i open my eyes and he is starring at me. " that was..." i search for words " wow." i look down to his shirt and remove my hands from his and touch the necklaces under it. i pull out one from under and there was the necklace from henrik with the bright green stone shineing from the headlights of each passing car, i touch it and my eyes water. i know something happened to his brother when they were all human but i didnt know what it was. not wanting to spoil the mood i turn back in my seat and smile at him.
" thanks for sharing that memory with me, we should go before we are late for whatever dinner plans you made" i tell him he stares at me then smirks remembering the dinner reservations then he trns back to the wheel and starts pulling out."oh and you are going to teach me how to do that one day. that was cool. it was like i was actually there." he looked at me for a brief second and then his smile grows from ear to ear. i wonder what he is thinking.
"as you wish, sweet heart."
i turn the music on and start to sing along and i had my hands in my lap looking out the window. he grabs my hand and i smile at him, still singing along. i peeked at him a few times. i can smell how good he smells. deep breaths caroline, deep breaths.
we finally arrive to some fancy Italian resturant, i was too busy paying attention to the way his shirt hugged every muscle on his chest to remember the name of the place. he puts his hand at the small of my back as we enter and the hostess welcomes us.
" i have a reservation for two under Niklaus Mikaelson"the woman looked at a list and ushered us to follow her up a set of spiralling stairs to a higher level of the restuarant. i raised an eyebrow at him using his full name. we get to the table and he holds the chair out for me. we give the waiter our drink orders after he gives us our menus. i ordered red wine while Klaus just ordered a soda. the waiter left us for a breif moment to give us time to decide what we wanted to eat
" i like your full name" i say remembering back to him telling the hostess. he smirks at me and i have to look down for a second and regain what thought i had.
"As do i" he looks straight at me his gaze never leaving my eyes. i was locked there untill the waiter came back with our drinks and a basket of rolls.
the waiter doesnt even look at Klaus while hes talking he has a smile on his face while turned in my direction. i noticed klaus stiffen slightly, i let a small smile slip.
"are you ready for me to take your order?" i look him straight in the eye.
" um, i would like the parmasion pasta with shrimp and chicken" i close the menu and hand it to the waiter, he waited a second with a smile on his lips still and turned toward klaus who was giving a slight calm smile which made me a bit nervous. he gives the waiter his order and the waiter leaves with our orders.
" that was interesting" he says. i look at him
"how so?"
" he was eye flirting with you."
" klaus just because a waiter has a smile on his lips while taking an order doesnt mean he was flirting"
" the only reason he was smiling was because he was undressing you with his eyes"
"Can you blame him though?" i say with a sly smile playing on my lips.
" i suppose not"
"you shouldnt be worried though"
" oh really, why is that love"
" because i came here with you, and i plan on leaving with you." i wink at him playfully, then i dramatically sigh " besides im not attracted to him. i have my eyes set on a man..."
"and who might this man be?" klaus asks squinting a little.
" well the man with grey-blue eyes that has secrets within them, begging me to reveal each one and that has the capability to make my stomach turn into knots with every glance and with an accent that makes my knees weak and heart clench." i pause for a breif second dramatically with a smirk messing with klaus. i hear the waiter come a little closer so i speed this up. "nobody you would know" he starred blankly at me and i hear the waiter come up the stairs more with the food i smile at klaus and then i stand up and walk to the other side of the table and lean over and kiss him on the lips i pull away and look him in the eyes "im just kidding i think his name is" and i turn my voice into a whisper and lean closer to his ear "Niklaus" i felt him stiffen a little and gulp. i giggled as he wrapped an arm around me bringing me down on his lap, i feel him harden underneath me and he starts placing wet kisses down my neck and when i moan he pulls back " you will pay for the teasing later" he said confidently and i felt my wrist going cold but i ignored it feeling him under me as his pants tighten even more.
"will i now?" i quirk an eyebrow up at him. i am glad that we are the only ones on the top level, if we werent we would have definatly turned a few heads from the position i was on his lap and the sounds i was making.
i hear the waiter come to the top of the stairs and clear his throat. i glance over my shoulder and klaus puts his hand on my waist getting ready to pull me off thinking i would hop up so i put my hands on his and push his hands away so i can remain on his lap. i turn my head back to klaus and gave him a bubbly smile before returning my gaze back to the waiter who was standing there awkwardly with a slight blush on his face. he quickly looked down.
" put the food on the table, are you waiting for a show...leave." i say and turn back to a smirking klaus. just as the boy put down klaus' food infront of us i grab the guys wrist prolonging his uncomfort. " do you have cherry coke?"
"no ma'm, we have regular coke. but we do have cherry flavouring and cherrys"
"excellent, bring me one. with extra cherries in it" he turns and leaves. i lean and give klaus a little peck on the lips and hopped off and returned to my seat across from him after fixing my dress." i did that for your benifet, just so you know"
"really now. not that im complaining cause i rather enjoyed that"
"well to make sure you didnt kill the kid later i made sure he knew who i was with, id say i made my point quite clear."
"it was clear but you started something that will need to be finished" he says readjusting his pants.
" for a guy who has been around over a thousand years i wouldve thought you wouldve learned control by now" i start laughing just rolls his eyes noticing the waiter come back upstairs not even looking away from his feet. he places the drink infront of Caroline and finally looks up.
" im sorry about the earlier display its just that this man" i wave my hand toward klaus " gets me hot and bothered sometimes."
"no problem" the guy swallowed hard" will there be anything else i can get for you?"
"no thanks" and with that the guy almost ran back downstairs. klaus was about to say something but i held up a finger.
and to prove my point.
"Listen" i tell him and pointed to my ear. klaus gets really quiet.
i hear the waiter talking to another waiter in the kitchen.
"man you just missed it. this hot chick is here with this guy and i took there orders"
"yeah so? thats what happens whenyou work dumbass" i heard another guy say. i start to laugh lightly.
" no i mean she is hot" i look at klaus and use my hand as a fan to cool my self down dramatically as the guy continued " anyways when i went back upstairs with their food she was on top of his lap and i cleared my throat and she just turned her head and i saw the guy smirking at me. she didnt even move from his lap. man i bet that guy is a lucky one. i came back up with the drink for the woman i guess so she could calm down she told me she gets hot and bothered by him."
" some guys have it lucky i guess"
" yeah hes definatly lucky i bet they wouldnt have stopped if i stayed"
" sounds like you wont be getting this one into you bed"
" i guess not"
i look back at klaus and smirk "there big boy happy?" i question him and take a bit of my food. he just looked at me amused and he took a drink." what? not all torture has to be bloody, that guy will probably be hard and uncomfortable the rest the night"
" he isnt the only one" i hear klaus grumble and he puts a biteinto his mouth. i cant help but to laugh.
"okay soo" i drag it out a little bit " what have you been up to in new orleans besides wolfslut?"
"im taking the city back, however im on vacation at the moment" he says dismissing that conversation.
"okay, mhmm this is so good" i say as i pop a piece of shrimp into my mouth moaning again.
we finish up eating i look at the dance floor on the bottom floor and klaus must have noticed my starring he held up a hand " would you like to dance ?"
" i would love to " i stand and grab his hand and he lead me down to the dance floor. he wraps one hand around my waist and brings me so close our chests are touching. i put both my hands on his chest feeling his muscles under his shirt and i roam my hands up to this neck i leave them there and klaus starts leading me to the beat of the music.
"Caroline i know i already told you but you look ravashing"
"Klaus are you trying to seduce me?" i joke with him.
"im pretty sure you started it" and he looks upstairs to where our table is.
" i did and i plan on adventually finishing it" i wiggle my eyebrows at him.
"if i didnt know any better miss Caroline i would say you were tryig to seduce me" he says and spins me
" maybe, maybe not" i said in my most dismissive voice i could manage. he moves his hand lower down my back at the exposed skin the dress doesnt cover then he dips me and i look up after squealing. i wasnt expecting that. he suprises me again by kissing me but it was torturous. he runs his tongue across the bottom on my lip and i shiver slightly causng him to smirk into the kiss.
"alright all mighty Alfa how about some dessert?" i ask as he brings me back up from the dip.
"that would be lovely" we walk back to the top of the stairs and i down the rest of my wine. the waiter is back and we order a strawberry drizzled cheese cake. we finished that and when we were getting ready to leave i reach for the check but when i was getting readyto open the black book Klaus takes it out of my hands.
"what are you doing" i question him.
"i am paying for it"
"you dont have to do that. your not my sugar daddy. i can manage it"
"i dont care what you say caroline im paying for it" geez so pushy
"fine" i roll my eyes at him" but dont expect to be paying for everything, besides i just got a job, well i compelled myself a job either way same thing" he sighs but drops it for now.
he leads me back to his car and opens the door for me."thank you 'Niklaus', for dinner and the dancing"
"youre welcome love, and if you keep calling me that im going to lose it" i smile. i know exactly what im doing to him. im tired to fighing him i dont care what anyone thinks anymore. if elena can be with damon dispite everything hes done and to me then i can be with Klaus. im done fighting him.
"hey that your name im just calling you it Nik" i smile im going to use his name. i like how i have three options. " so many nicknames i can call you i dont know how im supose to pick"
"call me what you want love" the car ride is mostly quiet until i get bored i turn the music on then hear the sounds of one republics come home coming out of the radio just starting. i turn it up a little and sing along. it kinda described how i was feeling when i denied my feelings for klaus for all that time, from the time that i ever first laid my eyes on him. i turn my head and look out the window as the song begins and as i start to sing lower than the music.
"hello world hope youre listening
forgive me if im young, for speaking out of turn
there's someone ive been missin, i think they could be
the better half of me, theyre in the wrong place trying to make it right
but i'm tired of justifing, so i say to you come home, come home
because ivve been waiting for you for so long, so long
right now theres a war between the vanities but all i see is you and me. the fight for you is all ive ever known, ever known. so come home."
i look over at klaus and smile at him while the intrumental part is playing. he reached over and grabbed my hand and placed it to his lips and my breath hitched untill i reminded myself to focus on the song.
"i get lost in the beauty, of everything i see
the world aint half as bad, as they paint it to be" i smirk at klaus knowing of his artistic side and continue while my hand is still in his. he glances from time and time again back to the road but i never take mine off him.
"if all the sons all the daughters, stop to take it in
well hopefully the hate subsides and the lovecan begin, it might start " i look down from his eyes and to our hands together "or maybe im just dreaming out loud
well untill then,come home, come home.
cause ive been waiting for you for so long, for so long
right now theres a war between the vanities but all i see is you and me and the fight for you is all ive ever known, ever known. so come "i look back up to his eyes.
"everything i cant be is everything you should be, and thats why i need you here.
everything you cant be is everything i should be and thats why i need you here
so hear this now come home, come home
cause ive been waiting for you for so long so long
right now theres a war between the vanities but all i see is you and me and the fight for you is all i have ever known. ever known. so coome hoome. come home."
it was quiet so a while and through the next few songs.
"klaus?"
"yes love?" he says looking straight ahead toward the road. i clear my throat alittle
"umm" i look down trying to put this together but now im drawing blanks." i..i have feeling for you. and i am truly sorry for being a distraction for you. i promise i hated doing it and i felt guilty most the time because each time i almost for got that i was distracting you. and you always.. i just have feelings for you klaus and im done hiding them. i just thought you should know. you can do whatever you want with that. i know you will be leaving soon so i just wanted to get that out there" i sigh getting most of it out and look down to my lap. we were pulling into the drive and i could hear to steady breathing in the house. sounds like stefan and Rawlins are both asleep. klaus turns the car off and flashes to my side pulling the door open for me.
"thank you" i said for opening the was making me nervous. he still hasnt said anything to my confession. i look down at my feet.
"caroline" he says and puts his hand under my chin to lift it up to look me in the eyes. i sigh and give up. i look him dead in the eyes. " i forgive you for the distractions. i didnt mind. plus i knew you were distracting me, also ive clearly done worse. You should know by now that i ve fancied you from the very moment i laid eyes on you caroline."
he leans in and kisses me it was slow at first then it grew deeper and he pressed me againt the car and i start panting he releases my mouth and kisses and sucks on my neck. i drop my purse and i jump up and wrap my legs aroundhis moves his hands to my but and squeezes while holding me inplace. he moved his mouth back to mine and i wrap my arms around his neck, fingers lost in his curls. the next thing i knew we where inside the house and i was on my bed he dropped my purse on the floor and i didnt even realized he picked it up.
i smile at him from on the bed and he walks over to me and climbs on top and starts kissing my neck. i try and contain my moan. he runs his lips down the keywhole part of my dress that exposed my skin he runs one hand down my body and i feel him lifting my skirt up, i flip us so im on top straddling him and i lean in and kiss him while i dig my hips into his i feel him getting harder under me and i roll my hips a little teasing him and he flips us again so im on buttom.
" always the tease caroline! but i do remember telling you that i would make you pay"
he says in my ear i feel his hands on my dress and a slight rip at first i started to protest
"hey, i liked this dress"
" i did too but ill buy you a new one" and just like that he ripped the rest of the dress off me jst leaving me with my lace panties and my heels on. i rub my legs together in inticipation klaus runs a hand down the side of my stomach and stops at the lace but the feeling of his touch gliding down my body made my stomach dip and my breath hitch he ran his hand back up to my breast and mouthed the other causing me to moan louder and my nipples to harden as he licked and sucked. he removed his mouth from my breast and i whimper and he replaces it with his other and and he slowly kisses his way down my stomach and i feel his fangs lightly scrap above where my panties are. i feel myself pooling and i pulsating just needing to be touched
"klaus" i say but he just looks up and smirks at me evilly.
he drags the panties all the way down and off with his teeth. i go to grab his shirt and pull it off but he puts his hands over mine to stop me. i pout.
" this is no fair im completely naked and youre fully clothed" i say his smile widens
"i know. i told you not to be a tease and now this is pay back" and just like that i felt his lips on my thighs and he worked his way spread my legs apart wide and before i know it he went down on me. i gasp and jerk away quickly, he looks up and smirks.
" i take it as im your first?" he smirks.
"nobodys ever really went down on me so yes i guess in that way, you surprised me is all" i say trying to not be self consious. his smile went from ear to ear and i feel my heart clench about whats about to happen.
"dont worry then, i know what im doing" he says cockily. i huff and throw my head against the pillow. he went back down on me and i gasp again as i felt his tongue gliding up and down. he puts his hands on my thighs opening them further.
" you are already so wet" he says as if i didnt already know that. the vibration on his voice only made me wetter. i moan as he sucks on my clit. my chest heaving as he works me.
"Niklaus" i scream. i feel my legs jerking my hips jerked and klaus move his hands up to hold my hips firmly inplace. i felt my entire body getting hot with sensations ive never felt before.
"Nik..Nik.. oh god" i feel my self losing it and i try harder to hold it back i whip my head against the pillow
"Nikaus ." he slips a finger in and works me going in a steady pace and fastens, i moan even louder. i grabbed the sheets around me and i feel myself tighten around his finger he slips in another and my back arches and i feel myself tighten even more and then the pulsing down there made me feel even more. then he pulls his firgers out of me and stops all movment i buck my hips and whimper at the loss. but he holds me in place.
"hey. dont. stop. please. dont stop."
"say sorry niklaus for teasing you" i looked at him pleading. he wasnt kidding. seriously!
" im so close" and he smiles .
" please niklaus im so so so sorry for teasing you. please Nik, please."
"as you wish darling"
he started again and he rubbed and sucked even faster and harder.
"Nik..mhm"
i was gasping and i came crashing all over and he licked me up and still worked me as i came down from my high screaming "Niklaus."
i laid there panting and he removed his finger and climbed on top of me i feel empty from the loss of him in me.i blush when he stares at my face and grabs his fingers and lick them from the remainingg of my juices. i still lay there panting " .god"
"ill settle for Nik" he says and kisses my neck i pull my hands down to his shirt and i pull it off. and then i slide his pants down. hes back on top of me. i kiss him on the lips and can taste myself on him i blush harder and he opens his eyes feeling the heat from my cheeks from the blush he smiles in the kiss " you taste exquisite love" i blush even harder. i run my hand down his chest and klaus is inbetween my legs again and i can feel how hard he is through his boxers. i felt his manhood rub against my clit and i moaned already feeling myself building again.i bucked my hips on his manhood and he moaned.
"Nik..please" i beg
"are you sure caroline"
"believe me im positive" i say which only makes him smirk his lop sided grin. i feel myself getting wetter and pulse harder where his cock is touching me. he slides his boxers off and he glids into me. he doesnt move at first letting me get used to feeling him in me. i gasped as he entered and wrapped my legs around him my red heels still on.
" you are so tight love"
"you feel good in me nik" i whispered rolling my hips.
"caroline" he moaned when i moved. he took that as a sign and started slowly thrusting into me. he thrust in me slow and his hands explored my body . i had my hand on his chest feeling his muscles i ve never once seen him work out but damn he has a bod that would make any woman cum just from looking. i feel myself even slicker. and starts to pick up the pace and i moan even louder. i felt my arm getting colder in a spot on my wrist but i ignored it.
" nik.. .nik"
he thrust harder and deeper. he moves us so there is barely breathing space in between us and i feel his necklaces wacking inbetween our chests.
"Nik say my name" he keeps his eyes on mine. he thrust in again.
"Caroline" the way my name sounded from his lips had my insides clenching him in me making me even tighter.
"mhmm" i bite my lip trying to contain my screams. his hybrid features show. and i see the amber in his eyes make its apearence and i felt my self tightened even more as if it were even possible i smile up at him and kiss his face. he hit my g-spot just then and i screamed even louder. he kept hitting my spot fast and hard and i matched each of his thrusts and rolled my hips. and then i felt my self come undone and we moan each others names in unision. my back arches and hes still thrusting in me hitting my sweet spot and he soon cums after and then he collapses on top of me both of our chest heaving up and down with sweat glistening. he stays in me growing soft and pulls out i whimper at his loss and he rolls to the side of me.
"wow." i say. that was by Far the best sex i had ever had. probably the best sex anyone had. i kick off the red heels.
"you took the words out of my mouth sweet heart" he reaches over and grabs the sheet and covers us and wraps an arm around me and brings me closer. i turn my head and kiss him one last time for the night. we fall asleep together.
