Hey Guys, sorry it took so long for me to update this story. It's not that I haven't been writing but rather I've been working. Things are really busy with work right now and I've only had one day off for the last couple of weeks so finding time to write then edit is difficult now. However I will try my best to do so... Ok so that is enough from me right now. Thanks to all for the reviews, follows and views that this story is getting. I promise there will be more to come :D

*I do not own TVD or the Character... I'm just inspired by them.

I felt like shit, like a drank a bottle of Jack and the gift I was left was waking to a nasty pink swirling world. Now I know what your thinking, Bonnie that would be the guilt talking. Hell no it isn't guilt! I mean really what would I feel guilty about. Sure I ran out of the house and stayed out all night with a boy a barely knew. It's not like I through a fit, it's not like Klaus and I did the nasty… though he was a bit suggestive about finding a way for me to relive my stress that would pleasure the both of us- his words not mine. Ok so maybe I should have called to let them know I was alive at least. Instead, I had klaus help me sneek into my room like some kind of criminal to avoid the talk. That I was sure my mother would want to have with me the minute I step foot into that house. Sure I heard the light tapping at my bedroom door, and pretended to be asleep when she came in to my room. Still, I have nothing to feel guilty for. Not that it would matter anyway, as the morning light streamed into my bedroom. Subconcautily I knew that we would have to talk eventually. So I quickly made it to the bathroom where I brushed that nausiating taste out of my mouth, hopped in the shower and got dress in a pair of jeans and a green tank. Giving my self on last look in the mirror I braced myself for what I would find down stairs.

Nothing…

Entering the kitchen I couldn't help but scoff a bit. It was clear that people had been up way before me. Dirty dish filled the sink, two coffee cups sat next to the coffee makers leaving brown rings on the counter. I guess I wasn't the only one that didn't want to have a talk...

" They left early this morning"

Jumping with a start I turn to see Alaric standing behind me with a mug of what could only be coffee in his hand. He had on a paint stained white shirt with a blue jeans that were also stained with paint. He smiled weakly as he walked pass me to put his mug in the sink. I crossed my arms and watched as he filled the sink up with soapy water.

" I didn't ask" I said grabbing a mug to pour myself some coffee.

Alaric shrugged his shoulders, " Abby asked me to tell you when I saw you this morning, she had a meeting with Esther about the clothing line so she will be gone most of the day. Jamie went on an overnight camping trip with his girlfriends family so he won't be home till sometime late tomorrow."

I bob my head in understanding as i take a sip of the coffee, it was still hot and fresh. Leaving a delicious warm feeling as it went down the back of my throat. " So I guess she wants you to talk to me too?" I asked taking a seat at the island counter. My eyes stayed on Alaric as he reached for a dish towel. Turning around he had a friendly smile on his face as he took a step towards the island. Crossing his arms he watched me for a moment, he didn't say anything he just... stood there, staring at me. uncomfortable with his staring what knowing gaze I look at the counter and take another sip of my coffee.

" She didn't, In fact I had to hold her back from bragging into your room when you... snuck in last night. Look Bonnie, I know that you and your mother don't have the best relationship b-"

My eyes shot up in anger, " You don't know anything" I spat

He nods holding his hands up in surrender " Fair enough, I don't know you very well. However I have come to know your mom pretty well. I know that when she loves someone she never stops, she does what she thinks is best, not saying that she gets it right every time but it isn't done to out of malice.

I scoff to disgusted to look at him

Look I get it, you anger. I'm not saying that you shouldn't be because that is how you feel, no one can tell you how to feel. But what I said last night, about wanting you to feel at home here... I ment that, so did you mom and so did Jamie. So, when you are ready to talk- when ever that may be we are here. Or if you want to talk to Em or Greta there are here for you too. No one is going to force you to talk about last night if you don't want to ..." he hesitated and I couldn't help but look at him. The kindness in his eyes, it kind of shocked me. Here i was, I'm sure looking like a brat and all he wanted to do was comfort me... it was kind of weird. I wasn't use to people wanting to help me.

"But?"

He smiled chuckling a little bit " But I would suggests that you talk to someone and soon. You don't want to carry around all this unresolved hurt and anger"

I tilt my head with a quizzical look " Why is that?"

Alaric lean towards me his arms resting on the counter as his hand rested reassuringly on my own. " Because it will grow and fester, it will get so bad that you end up alone with no one. Your to young to be living a life of solitude. It isn't a fun way to go through life."

"You talk like you know' I say softly unable to stop myself from softening myself to him

He nods as he stands and smiles at me " I do, and if it wasn't for your mother and Jamie... I would be a lot worse. Like I said, when your ready to talk find someone... anyone. Ok?"

I nod my head turning my eyes towards that sliding glass door that led to the back yard. With that Alaric went back to washing dishes announcing that he would make me breakfast because he was sure that I was hunger. I could feel the sting of tears start to form but I pushed them back. I didn't know what it was about Alaric but he made me feel... like I wasn't some crazy teenager. I guess that is what happens when you're a teacher, you try to find ways to relate to your students. Which had me wondering... what had Alaric went through that could have broken him down so much. How did someone like my mother, a person who abandon her own family , be the kind of person to save him. Maybe one day I would ask him, but for now I just stare out towards the morning sun as he hums while washing the dishes.

We both had a start when the door bell went off.

Alaric turned to me " Are you expecting someone?"

I raised an eyebrow " Like who?"

He nods his head understanding how silly that question must be, taking the dish towel again he walked around the counter towards the front door. I followed him to the front door as he pulled it open.

" I have to say I love seeing a man in an apron Alaric" Rebekah said suggestively.

Alaric let out a long sigh " Mr Saltsman Rebekah... how many times-"

Rebekah held up a finger waving it back and forth " Were not in school Alaric, besides I'm eighteen and legal adult. " she finished wiggling her eye brows. Alaric rolled his eyes and turned back towards the kitchen were I sat.

" I think she is her for you, I'm going to go up and finish the baby's room"

I smiled weakly as I watch Alaric walk away fromt he front door, and Rebekah called after him say that she would see him later only to have Alaric wave a dismissive hand at her. Rebekah turned her attention towards me smiling. She steps pass the threshold closing the door behind her. Wide eyed I watch as she walks towards the island counter at takes a seat on the stool. I follow behind and took my seat next to her. She had on a very sheer white tank top that showed just a sliver of her abdomen with an assortment of necklaces that hung down. Her blue jeans were striaght legs and she had on a pair of yellow wedges. She looked awful dressed up for ten o'clock in the morning.

" Bonnie" she said with a smile

"Rebekah?" I sure she could hear the confusion in my voice but she said nothing as she took a sip our of her styrofoam cup from a place called Sheila's.

" Your mom asked if I could show you around today, she and my mother are working on a fashion show idea or something like that" Rebekah said as if the whole subject bored her.

"Oh, well I was thinking I would just stay in and read or something." I said taking a sip of my coffee jumping off my stole to pour the rest of the cold beverage down the sink. Rebekah scoffed behind me as if I hurt her feelings.

" Are you planing on reading all summer, I know Burk Hallows is a small town but there is plenty to do." She stood and walking over to me taking my hand " I have the whole day planned so you have to come... please?" she finishes sticking out her lower lip looking at her I couldnt help but laugh a little bit... I guess I could be a little social. I mean it wouldn't kill me right?

" I'll go on one conditions"

She smiled wickedly " Which would be?"

I point at her face and shack my head " Don't ever make this face again"

She squeals and agreed " Now take that pretty arse of yours up stairs and put some clothes on."

I look down at my jeans and green tank top " What's wrong with what I have one?"

Rebekah sighed rolling her eyes and took my hand heading towards the stairs in the living room, " this is like a debut... you need to turn heads not blend in"

She pulled me up the stairs and I started to wonder what it was that I had gotten myself into.

CF

He was humming, Klaus Mikaelson was humming in the shower. In all the two years that we have been together I knew what humming ment. You see he only hummed when he was really happy about something which was rare. Or he met someone- again rare. Klaus wasn't the kind of guy to just met people... not randomly. Sure he was charismatic and could carry a conversation if he really wanted to. However Klaus kept his circle of friends very small. He said it was easier that way, to keep thing you don't want other to know secret. Not that he kept secrets from me... at least I don't think he has. Anyway the point of my rambling was for Klaus to be humming could only mean these two things. As much as I would love to toot my horn Klaus and I didn't even have sex last night which was what I had need desperately. In fact by the time he had gotten back from his long ass run I had passed out on the couch...

"Caroline?' he whispered

She stirred a bit as she woke to the gentle touch of Klaus hands... " Hey, where have you been it was 11 when I got here" she yawned

"Sorry love, I went out... for a late run. I guess I just lost track of time" he smiled at her watching her stretch out her legs and arms in almost a feline fashion. Sitting up she scooted over so that Klaus could join her on the couch. She notice he didn't smell to musky like he normally did when out on a run but figured it wasn't a bit deal since it was rather cool outside.

"For two hours... that's a hell of a run" she mused snuggling into him as his arms rested around her shoulder.

He chuckled kissing the tip of her golden curls " I had much on my mind, a lot to sort out lovey"

"Can I help?" she yawned again

"No, I think I ought to sort it out on my own. For now lets get you to bed, your exsustated from the looks of it"

Caroline shook her head as she threw her legs over his lap, leaning her head she placed soft kisses on his neck. All she wanted was to be engulfed by him. to feel him inside of her. To make her forget about everything that had just went down tonight. " I'm not that tried" she cooed she began to draw lazy circles with her tongue right on top of his pulse. It was the spot that alway made Klaus bend to her will. Her hand slowly crawled over her covered chest as she continued her assault against his neck. Klaus gulped audible. He love it when she touch him like this, when she would tease that sweet spot just under his ear. She smelled like sunshine and sunflowers, she felt even better naked and under him. He swore that if he was a weaker man the sound of her moaning his name was enough to allow him to come.

"Caroline" he groaned as he notice that her hand was now sliding over the bulge that had started to form in his pants. He took her hand away pulling her just a few inches away from him. He looked down into those camelina eyes of hers, he could have sworn when he woke her that they were a hazel but looking at them now they were a blazing ice blue. " Is everything all right?

She snatched her hand away crossing her arms " Can't a girlfriend want to kiss or... I don't know fuck her boyfriend" she spat glaring at the tv.

Klaus sighed what little arousal he had was now gone " Of course love, I'm not objecting to the idea of making love to you. However I know you Care, there is something wrong and normal when something goes array at home you look for an escape." he gently pushed a few strands of hair away from her and tilted her head so that they started at each other. " Let me help you, talk to me"

"I don't want to talk" she said quietly her hands slowly started to trace over his lower abdomen " I want you to love me Klaus, I want you inside of me... I need you"

He shook his head again " Not tonight Caroline, not untill you talk to me"

She scoff pushing him away again " Then I guess I should just go home since you don't give a shit about what I want!" she exclaimed she jumped up from the couch and head towards the door. She only got a few feet till a strong grip took hold of her arm and spun her around. She came face to face with the blue-eyed devil. In another instant he had her in his arms carrying her up stairs. " You can sleep her tonight" his voice clearly filled with exasperation "Just sleep Caroline" he finished when he notice her smirk that quickly dissapered with his last words...

That is what they did, sleep. Klaus had laid me down and taking me into his arms and we feel asleep. Then I woke to hear him humming, so if he didn't get laid by me then why the hell is he so happy?

you've got a text! my phone chirped from the nightstand.

Quickly I grabbed it, it was Hayley...

You will not belive what I saw last night. Meet me at Shelia's you are going to want to hear this.

I rolled my eyes, didn't this girl have anything better to do then gossip about every little thing that went down.

I'm with Nik now, can't this wait till later

The response was emiditily...

Bitch , it's about Klaus. I saw him with some girl last night.

My eyes widen as I re-read what Hayley had just text me, Klaus was with someone last night... no, no Nik loved me. We loved each other there was no way that he would do something like cheat on me with some ... whore.

Get your ass to Sheila's... NOW!

I didn't know what to think or to do... I just layed they're looking at my phone. I hadn't even notice that Klaus had walked back into the room with his towel hanging rather low around his waist. I eyed him as he started to towel dry his hair.

"Would you like some breakfast, before i have to leave for work?" he asked his back still to her as he rummage through his draw looking for his briefs that he wore.

"No... " I cleared my throat a bit before continuing " I have plans with Hayley, were meeting for coffee at Sheila's"

He only nods as he drops his towel giving me a full view of his perfect ass... god, why did he have to be so damn good-looking. It was hard to concentrate. I didn't know if I wanted to punch him or jump his bone... both maybe.

"Klaus... is there anything you want to tell me about last night?" I asked playing idily with my phone my eye on my hands as they twisted the phone over and over.

Silence... not good.

"Why do you ask love?" he said turning towards me now, there was no guilty look on his face. However Klaus was so good at keeping his secret just that...his. When things started between them while she was with Stefan I had been the one a total and complete mess. Ever question, or look I got from Stefan i was sure that he had figured out that I was seeing Klaus on the side. Nik on the other hand was a totally cool customer. He hung out with Stefan no problem, like he wasn't sleeping with his best friends girlfriend. Yes, Klaus was the master at hiding things. The one thing that Klaus didn't do was lie, if you asked him a question he was up front about it. No matter what it was, if you asked him he would tell you.

I shrug my shoulders " I'm just wondering... did something happen?"

He raised an eyebrow in confusion and smiled " No, nothing happen"

"You promise, your telling the truth? I asked

"Of course, I would never lie to you Caroline...never"

I nod and jump up from the bed, I walk over to him and throw my arms around his neck and pull him in for a kiss. His mouth tasted of the mint toothpaste he use. He smelled fresh, he smelled intoxicating... I had to have him.

"Good, so how about a quicky before I met up with Hayley" I say grinning mischievously he does the same as he reaches for the white tee-shirt he gave me and pulled it over my head.

"Anything for you" he said and are lips come crashing together as we fall back onto his bed. Mouths, tongue and legs entwine.

Maybe this won't be so quick after all.

AB

" Thank you so much Danny, yes I will make sure we get the figures to you with in the week. Bye bye" I watched as Esther finally ended her call with Danny. Esther had just gotten back from her business trip to new york to meet with some department stores that wanted to pick up my designs. What does she do after being away for more than a month on business... just continuing on with work like she the energizer bunny or something.

"One of these days I'm going to take you on a vacation... just us girls" I sigh as I take a sip of my decaf tea.

Esther raised an eyebrow " If we both take a break than nothing gets done." I couldn't help but chuckle a bit she sounds just like my mother ." Speaking of breaks, I think you have been on one long enough, you are going to want to start thinking about your next collection. I mean people are interested in you Abby. ABS is taking on a steam and now is the time to hit back. Fashion session will be starting soon do you think you could get a collection ready in time for Brian Park"

I shook my head " Esther, I have my wedding a baby and a honeymoon to plane. Not to mention a teenage daughter that hates my guts right now. I think I have enough on my plate. The Fashion world is just going to have to wait for a while, I have to focus on my family and especially Bonnie"

Esther smiled sadly " Did you talk to her yet?"

I shook my head " Alaric thinks that I should let her come to me when she is ready, he thinks pushing her to talk about things will only make things worse"

Esther widen her eyes " And your listening to that load of bollocks" I couldn't help but laugh.

"Alaric knows what he is doing, I mean he's a high school teacher. He knows how to handle kids like Bonnie"

"What about Jamie you pretty much raised him" Esther said waving for the waitress to come bring the check.

"Jamie was different, he was and easy kid. With Bonnie there is so much more, all the moving and the fighting she saw between her father and I. Not to mention I left her with him, remarried, raised another child, moved and got engaged and am having another baby. I feel like there is so much she has stacked up against me right now... maybe giving her time and space is the right thing to do."

Esther shook her head handing her credit card over to the teenage girl " Spare the rod spoil the child, that is what my mother always use to say and her mother before me"

"You Brits and your funny euphemisms"

"What have I told you about using words and not knowing their meanings" Esther said with a grin as I stuck out my tongue.

We were just like our kids... at times anyway. I met Esther five years ago and in that short amount of time we had some how become best friends. She was serious and a deticated hard working woman and I was the goofy, slacker . I put the fun into her life and she make me buckle down from time to time. Ying and Yang; we balanced each other out in the best ways.

"I have to get going, I have meeting I need to take and I have to call paris tonight. Think about the collection idea, you can still do the family thing and work. As for Bonnie..."

She paused her eyes were looking out the large windows that we sat next to in are booths. I followed gaze. I watched as bonnie and Rebekah passed by on the other side of the street. It looked like Rebekah was dragging Bonnie around. Though she wasn't smiling she wasn't glaring either... that had to be a good sign. We watched as the two walked into Emily's dance studio disappearing behind the tinted double glass doors.

I felt a tear fall from my eyes, where had my spirited little girl gone. When she was younger we were so similar; silly and happy. Always laughing and making the other laugh to the point of tears. when she had arrived the other day I barely recognized her. In that moment as I wrapped my arms around her I couldn't help but notice how cold her greeting had been. All business that girl, had I stuck out my hand instead of hugging her I was almost positive that I would have been greeted with a very firm hand shack. Watching her just now I couldn't help but feel responsable for my daughter broken spirit. Esther took my hands in hers, looking up at her i could see the pity just beneath the love. She squeezed my hand lightly and smiled " Bonnie will come around... it will just take a little time is all"

I nod my head and turn back to the dance studio. Yes, I couldn't expect to have the relationship we had before back over night. However I couldn't help but wonder how long it would take to have my Bon-Bon really back in my life.

A/N : So there you go chapter 4. I kind of like it and sorry to the Klonnie fans that don't really care for Karoline but I figure I had to show them off a little bit while they are still together. personal I like the idea of Karoline, it just that the tv version seems to be a bit rushed and forced to me. However I will wait and see how that turns out but for now I like Karoline and Klonnie so... again sorry it you don't, I tried :D

Anyway much more to come guys, Stefonnie will have a big part in the next chapter. But have not fear Klonnie too will be big. And something is about to go down between bonnie and Caroline so you will not want to miss that :D

As always thank you for taking the time to read/ review/ follow and view my story. I hope you continue to do so, and as long as you do I will continue to write.

Happy Reading!
