Hey everyone! You can expect to see more chapters more often now because it's finally the holidays! Hope you enjoy this one

Caroline sits on her favourite cream coloured sofa, scribbling notes for an upcoming news report. She wipes a bead of sweat from her forehead, and removes her jersey in hopes that the stress will be removed with it.

"Lizzie! That's my doll!" Josie screams at the top of her lungs before racing after her sister. Lizzie dashes through the house, holding the doll well above her head as if to tease her sister.

"Alright girls what's going on?" Alaric asks with concern.

The twins point at each other and yell in unison. "She started it!"

"I don't care who started it, I'm ending it!" Alaric exclaims, and scoops the twins into his arms, racing around the living room.

"Dad! Put us down!" they laugh, attempting to wriggle free. Caroline smiles as she watches her family, all so happy. However, there's still a nagging feeling at the back of her mind telling her she shouldn't be happy. She knows how Alaric feels for her, and as much as she wants to feel the same towards him, she can't. She's still deeply in love with Stefan, who has been gone for almost 6 months.

"Mummy, help us!" Lizzie squeals. Caroline grins and races over to join the fun. Josie reaches out and wraps her hand around Caroline's wrist, sending a searing pain up her arm.

"Ow!" Caroline pulls away, stroking her tender arm. Alaric turns to Caroline and looks at her with concern.

"You okay, Care?" Alaric murmurs, before suddenly turning his tone serious. "You girls need to be more careful."

"I'm sorry Mummy," Josie sobs, snuggling into Alaric's neck. "I didn't mean to."

"I know Honey, it was just an accident," Caroline stammers, trying to conceal the fear that is slowly building up inside. This felt more powerful than before, her daughters are getting stronger. "I'm gonna visit Elena."

She grabs her cardigan and opens the front door, to find a beautiful bouquet of flowers resting on her front porch. Her heart flutters a little and she grabs the bouquet, fumbling for a tag or a card. Her fingers clasp around a small piece of paper attached to the stems by string. She flips it over, and her heart drops as she reads it. She takes the bouquet along with the tag and runs as fast as she can to the Salvatore house.

Damon paces the living room, his heart pounding with worry for Elena. He clenches his fist and digs his nails into his palms in attempt to calm down. He finally retires to the couch and rests his head in his hands, tugging at his hair. He is becoming restless from searching all day, having searched the entire Lockwood mansion and its immediate surroundings. Elena would never just leave him without saying anything, considering that last time she did that, she ended in a 3-year slumber. Suddenly, a cacophony of thumping echoes at the front door. Damon's heart begins to race, perhaps it's Elena. He races to the door, and swings it wide open.

"Damon, we need to talk," Caroline says sternly. Damon's heart sinks.

"Oh. Hey, Blondie," Damon mutters. "Not really in the mood for one of your chit chats right n-"

Before Damon can finish speaking, Caroline thrusts the bouquet of flowers into his hands.

"I have a girlfriend," Damon says puzzledly.

"No, read the tag," Caroline rolls her eyes. Damon finds the tag and his eyes scan the words that are printed perfectly on it.

"For you, love.

Klaus"

I wake up in an unfamiliar room, however the house itself seems strangely familiar. The old-fashioned skirting, the beautiful royal wallpaper, it all seems like a place I've been before. From the edge of my hearing I can faintly hear people arguing from outside the door, slowly coming closer and closer. I begin to panic … what are they going to do to me?

"I just think taking Elena was a stupid way to announce your return to town, would you not agree?" a female voice yells.

"Ah, Rebekah. What did you expect me to do? Bake muffins and send out care packages? You must hardly know me at all, which is ridiculous considering we've been bloody stuck with each other for over a thousand years!" a voice snaps back.

"Niklaus you are bloody unbelievable. It took long enough for us to gain their trust in the first place, and now you've gone and thrown it out the window!" Rebekah yells.

I'm straining so hard to hear, that I realise I've been holding my breath, causing me to choke a little. I automatically clasp my hand over my mouth, and suddenly the voices stop. My heart is pounding, and my stomach is churning with butterflies. I watch the doorknob slowly turn, and the sound of creaking echoes quietly throughout the room, making me shiver. The door opens, to reveal Klaus and Rebekah Mikaelson. To my relief, their faces don't show any sign of hunger or anger, and so I release a sigh.

"Ah, I was wondering when you would wake up," Klaus smiles, sitting on the edge of my bed. Rebekah stays beside the door with her arms crossed, sending shivers of intimidation up my spine. I pull the blankets closer to my face and pull my knees in towards my chest.

"She's scared," Rebekah scoffs. "Not much has changed, you're still weak and pathetic." Anger boils inside of me, causing me to remember what happened before I got here.

"You kidnapped me!" I yell at Klaus.

"Well I wouldn't say kidnapped," Klaus says. "Kidnap sounds so negative. I prefer to use the term 'borrowed'."

"Well care to explain why you borrowed me?" I growl.

"Hush now, I was just getting to that part. Just quiet down please, we wouldn't want to wake up Elijah-"

"A little too late for that, brother," Elijah suddenly emerges from behind the door.

"Elijah. How kind of you to join us," Klaus smiles sarcastically. "Good nap?"

"Yes, I absolutely love waking up in a coffin," Elijah replies.

"Well you're lucky I took that dagger out, I was considering leaving you there for another few years," Klaus says.

"Let us not forget that I was the one who removed the dagger, not you," Rebekah scowls.

"I'm sorry. I forgot you were even here," Klaus says, causing Rebekah to lunge at him with a wooden stake. Elijah grabs her and injects a syringe of vervain into her neck, and she crumbles to the ground.

"Thank you, brother," Klaus says, patting Elijah on the back.

"What do you want with me?" I groan. Klaus turns to me and smiles.

"I was hoping you could help me with something," he says.

There you go! I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Just a quick side note, I don't watch "The Originals" so in this story, everything that happened in "The Originals" doesn't apply to this story. Therefore, Klaus is still in love with Caroline (because I don't know if he is in love with her in the Originals) and everything else that happened in the Originals never happened.

ALSO remember I'm giving someone the chance to be a character in this story! So please leave a review or PM me your name and a brief description of what you look like.

Thanks for all of the support guys, make sure to leave a review
