Thanks for the reviews! I am so happy everyone is still enjoying the story!
CHAPTER 4
The way back to the house was pretty quiet.
"I had fun." I said breaking the silence as we approached the house.
"I'm glad. I enjoyed myself as well; although I am sure that was obvious." We finally reached the house and went inside. "This way." He said was he nodded to the staircase. "I will show you my bathroom so you can dry off."
We walked up the stairs and down a long hallway. We stopped at the end and Klaus opened the door in front of us. We walked into a large bedroom, I am assuming Klaus', it was a beautiful room. There was a California King Size four post canopy bed in the middle of the room. There was a deep red fluffy comforter on top and black pieces of fabric that hug off each corner of the canopy. Along with the beautiful bed there was a nightstand, dresser, desk & chair, bookshelf, and an over-sized chair in the room. On one wall there were floor to ceiling windows with deep red curtains covering them.
"Wow." I paused to look around again. "You have a beautiful room."
"Thank you, Sweetheart." He paused. "The bathroom is right through that door. There are towels in the closet and a hair dryer under the sink." He walked over to his dresser and took out a pair of black jogging pants and a dark grey t-shirt. "Here you are. You can put those on once you are dry. It will be more comfortable than your jeans." He said with a smile.
I took the clothes and walked into the bathroom, closing the door behind me. The bathroom of course was amazing…fitting with the rest of the house. I stipped off Klaus' t-shit and then took off my bra and panties. I grabbed a towel from the closet and dried myself off. I squeezed the excess water out of my hair then hung the towel over the bathtub. I looked down at my underwear and they were still soaked. I guess I was going to be going commando since there was no way I was going to get back into wet clothes. I slid into Klaus' pants and then threw on his shirt. I rung out my bra and panties and draped them over the tub to dry. I grabbed the hairdryer under the sink and started to dry my hair.
I walked out of the bathroom, Klaus was sitting at his desk, and it looked like he was drawing something. I pulled my hair into a high pony tail. "I hung my things on your bathtub, I hope that was OK." I said as I took a seat on the oversized chair.
"Of course." He said. He glanced up for a second then looked back down at whatever he was doing.
I brought my feet under my butt and made myself comfortable in the chair…which wasn't hard since it was an extremely comfy piece of furniture. "What are you drawing?"
"How do you know I am drawing, Sweetheart?" He said with a smirk not bothering to look up at me this time.
"I can just tell." I said as I rested my head on my hand. He looked so sexy when he was drawing, I couldn't help but stare. A few minutes passed and he still didn't answer me. "Well, are you going to tell me?"
"I am drawing you, Love." He said simply.
"Me?" I asked surprised. "Why?"
"You looked beautiful today, actually you look beautiful everyday but I am sure you have been told that many times."
I got up the chair and walked over to the desk, I was curious as to how he was drawing me. The first drawing he had done of me was amazing so I am sure this one will be just as good. I walked to stand next to him then knelt down on the floor once I was beside him.
"Oh my god. This is…"I was at a loss for words. "Amazing." I settled with amazing even though it didn't come close to describe what I was looking at. It was of me in the lake splashing water with trees and rocks all around. The detail was amazing, even the design on my bra was an exact match. "You have a lot of talent." I said not taking my eyes off the drawing.
"Thank you, Love." He paused and I could feel him looking at me now but I didn't look up at him. "I do believe you are the first to compliment my work." He said just above a whisper.
That broke my heart. Sure he was a sadistic killer there had to have been someone in his one thousand years of life that cared for him…even just a little. I looked up so I could see him. "So, what did you want to do next?" I asked trying to lighten the mood. His face looked sad but as soon as he noticed I was looking he put a small smile on his face.
"Whatever you would like, sweetheart."
I thought for a minute. "How about you come to my house tonight and we can have a movie night."
"Well…that is a surprise." I could tell he was a little shocked by my suggestion.
I smiled. "Is that a yes?"
"Of course. What time shall I come by?"
"Eight?" I suggested as I stood up.
"Perfect."
"OK. Well, I am going to head home so I can get everything ready."
"I will walk you out." He said as he stood up from his desk."
"Oh, I should get my things." I walked in the bathroom and grabbed my underwear. I placed them on the pile with the rest of my clothes that Klaus had brought in for me. "OK, all set." I said. He walked me all the way outside to my car and opened the door for me to get in. "I will see you in a couple hours." I said with a smile.
Once I got home I ran in my room and changed so I could put on some underwear. I grabbed a red bra with black lace and a pair of black lace boy short panties. I grabbed a pair of jeans from my closet and a red tank top from my draw. I ran back out to my car and headed to the store. At the store I bought some popcorn, and candy. As soon as I was done I raced home to make sure everything was clean and ready for our movie night.
When I got home I grabbed a couple blankets from the hall closet and tossed them on the sofa. I grabbed a bunch of different movies and placed them on the coffee table. I checked the clock and it was already after seven. I sighed and headed downstairs to grab a blood bag. When I came back upstairs I checked my phone and was surprised that I hadn't received any texts from anyone today. I honestly didn't mind because I didn't want to have to lie to them about spending the day with Klaus. Part of me was glad my mom was out of town until next week because I am sure she would not have been happy about this.
I was sitting on the couch sipping my blood bag thinking about all the fun I had today. I can't even remember the last time I had such a carefree afternoon. The knock at the door brought me back to reality. I placed my blood bag on the table before getting up and answering the door. Klaus was standing there looking amazingly hott like always and he was holding a single red rose.
"Hey." I said as I stepped to the side so he could enter.
"Thank you for inviting me over tonight." He said softly as he handed me the rose.
"Thanks." I said looking at the rose. I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a vase and quickly filled it with water before placing the rose inside. "Come on." I said as I walked towards the back of the house into the living room.
We both sat down on the couch. "Having a little snack?" He asked pointing to the blood bag on the table.
"Oh, did you want some?"
"No, Love. I'm fine thank you." He said with a small smile.
"OK. So, I picked out a bunch of different movies. Pick which you want to start with and I will go make some popcorn." When I got back to the living room the previews were already playing. "So, what did you pick?" I asked sitting next to him. I sat with both feet under me slightly angled towards him.
"The Notebook."
I was about to put some popcorn in my mouth but paused and smiled. "Really? That is my favorite movie." I moved the bowl in front of him to offer him some popcorn. He grabbed some and tossed it in his mouth. "So have you seen The Notebook?" I asked.
"I can't say that I have. I actually haven't seen many movies."
"Well it is one of the most romantic movies ever! I have seen it many many times!" The credits started to roll signaling the end of the movie. Before either of us could say anything there was a knock at the door. It was already 10:30 so I was a little surprised since I was not expecting anyone this late. "I will be right back." I said as I got up off the couch and walked down the hall to the front door.
I opened the curtain over the door and saw Tyler standing there. I dropped the curtain and started to walk away. Once he realized I wasn't opening the door he knocked again, this time a lot harder. "Caroline!" He yelled through the door.
"Tyler go home. I am not in the mood to deal with you tonight." I said simply. I waited for a few seconds and when he didn't respond I walked back to the living room.
"Everything OK, Love?"
I sighed. "No." I paused as I plopped down on the couch. "I hate that he makes me this mad." My phone started to ring; I picked it up and checked the caller id. "Seriously!" I said as I hit ignore and tossed my phone on the coffee table.
"Shall we watch another movie?" Klaus asked. I could tell he was trying to change the subject and make me feel better.
"I'm not really in the mood…sorry." I said trying to express my apology in my facial expression.
"No problem, sweetheart; I understand. I will head home, thank you for having me over this evening." He said as he got up from the couch.
"Wait!" I said as I stood up quickly. "Don't leave." I paused. "I mean…you can stay…if you want." I said quietly. Just then the power went out. I laughed. "Great." I got up and went to the hall closet and grabbed two candles and a lighter. I placed the candles on the coffee table and lit them. Klaus sat back down next to me on the couch. "Well, I guess we wouldn't be able to watch a movie even if we wanted to." I grabbed a blanket from the pile I had thrown on the couch earlier and covered myself up with it. Even though I was now a vampire and could see fairly well in the dark I still wasn't a fan of it and always needed a blanket over me even when it was hot.
"Why don't you tell me about yourself, Darling." He paused. "How did you turn?"
I turned to completely face him with my knees up to my chest. I took a deep breath. "Well, I was in a car with Tyler and Matt; Tyler was driving and we got in an accident. I was pretty badly hurt; they didn't think I was going to make it. Elena asked Damon to give me blood and I made a miraculous recovery. The next night Katherine came to see me and killed me, she knew I had Damon's blood in my system and she wanted to be able to use me for things, than eventually hand me over to you so I could be used in the sacrifice." The last part of the story came out quieter than the rest. It was quiet between us for a while but he never took his eyes off me. "I am sorry this is so boring."
"I'm not bored, Sweetheart." He said smiling.
I gave him a look like I didn't completely believe him. "Come on." I said as I got up off the couch and grabbed the other blanket on the couch along with the one I was already holding. I walked out the back door and he followed behind me. I laid out one of the blankets and laid down in the middle of it. "Lie down." I said patting the space next to me.
Klaus laid down beside me, his arm grazed my arm. "It is a beautiful night." He said looking up at the stars.
I pulled the other blanket over my body.
"Is this why you wouldn't talk to me?"
I jumped and Tyler was standing about two feet from our heads. "Tyler! What the hell are you doing here!" I sat myself up to a sitting position.
OK I ended this chapter with a bit of a cliffhanger, if I didn't this chapter would have gone on forever! Lol But don't worry because I promise to continue with my fast updates! Just don't forget to give me some reviews in return!
*I am trying to make a Klaus/Caroline playlist on my iPod to go along with my Damon/Elena one so I need some song suggestions (I like to listen to the playlists when I have a writer's block)…leave them in your review or send me a message with them!*
