Hey Klaroline Lovers! Okay so I know there hasn't been much fun (Klaus in his own body kind of fun) klaroline moments going on but to me I want to make sure the plot is well organized and that every single moment has importance. I don't want to rush (even though that does sound like a great thing to do.) but hang in there guys! After this chapter things will start to get interesting, ANNDD Klaus will go back to his own sexy Joseph Morgan form very very soon! I'll try to update as often as possible! BTW there are nice hearty klaroline moments that I just HAD to add, hope you guys spot them out and enjoy them as much as I enjoyed writing them. ;)
P.S. I don't own TVD, sadly.

Chapter 4:

Caroline and Klaus pace the long, long corridor. The whispering sounds start to become more defined as they come closer to the metal door at the end of the walk. There was a padlock that obviously required a password. Caroline rolled her eyes and walked towards the door placing both hands on it and started to push. She heard the metal screech and groan, but that was all she could do. It didn't move one bit. She heard a chuckle by her side. Looking sideways at Klaus, she could see him leaning against the wall nonchalantly, watching Caroline with great amusement. Like watching a puppy do a trick. She scoffed before giving the metal door another push. A groan and that was it. She stood straight and glared at the door, as if accusing it. Klaus walked towards her.

"Darling, let me do it." He said with a smirk, he laid both hands on the door and gave it a push. The smile on his face got wiped away when he realized he was in Tyler's body not his own. It was gonna be tougher than he had thought.
Caroline giggled loudly. He glared at her.
"Oh sorry," she said with sarcasm, "didn't mean to hurt your big boy feelings."
He groaned, pushing harder.
Caroline burst out laughing, startling him. He never made her laugh that way before. She leaned against the wall clutching at her sides. Klaus watched her with admiration.
After a while she started to sober up, meeting Klaus's gaze with a smile. He didn't realize until then that he was smiling at her.
Caroline looked down for a while, tucking a strand of golden hair behind her ear, he found that endearing.
"Okay how about we both push at the same time." She said walking over to his side.
Klaus nodded.
In a moment the door fell to the floor with a loud clank. Caroline gave a sigh and smirked, "that's better."
Klaus chuckled.
They gave each other one last look before walking along the new corridor.

"Caroline?"
"Bonnie?" Caroline replied. She broke out into a run. She could feel Klaus pacing behind her.
"Over here!" she heard bonnie answer.

She stopped at a full prison cell. Inside it laid Bonnie, Sheriff Forbes and Mrs. Lockwood. Angry at the sight, Caroline grabbed the barred door and pulled it out of its frame.
"Come on we have to get out of here." She said.

"Caroline."
she turned to find Klaus. He cocked his head towards the other end of the corridor from where they came from. She took a look and froze.

Blue uniforms. Again.
With a groan she grabbed Mrs. Lockwood who was still feeling week and helped her mom carry her off.
The five of them started to run away from the officers until they met a dead end.
"God damn it!" Caroline swore.

She turned to Klaus with fear. She didn't want to go back to that torture cell. She didn't want to ever go through that pain again.
Klaus watched the fear cripple her. He turned to the officers, feeling anger vibe through him. With supernatural speed he was by the officers' side. One of them injected him with vervain. Klaus yelled out in pain, but after a while his Hybrid body fought back. He snarled at the officer who dared, then began to kill them off. Some he wrenched their hearts out, some he twisted their spines, while other he simply pushed against the wall and let the hard, cold concrete material do the rest.

"Stop it Klaus!" Caroline screamed at him, "please! They're innocent."
"Innocent?" Klaus muttered under his breath.
"They're only doing what they're told. Just leave them, they got the message."
Klaus stopped and looked back at Caroline. She looked concerned for those who tortured her, who were planning on killing her off. She truly had a big heart, one that would surly get her killed.
Klaus looked back at the remaining police force. They were cowering away from him. Klaus ran his hand through Tyler's hair and gave up to her request.
Making sure they stopped fighting, Caroline ushered the three by her side towards the opening the police have formed between them. They were letting them go, she realized.

They walked past the police slowly afraid one of them would strike. After Bonnie, Mrs. Lockwood and Sheriff Forbes have passed Caroline and Klaus followed.
Suddenly one of the men brought out a wooden stake. Klaus pushed Caroline away only to have the stake plunged into his upper arm. He winced as he took it out as if it were merely a splinter. The brave, stupid man looked at Klaus with wide eyes, realizing what he had just done.
Klaus smiled unkindly at him before twisting his head 180 degrees. Caroline winced.
"What? He deserved it." Klaus replied to the disgusted look on the blonde vampire's face.
She rolled her eyes at him.

"Now what do we do?" Bonnie asked. They were all cooped up in a van Klaus stole, and wired. None of them had a plan in mind.
"How about we just get out of town? They might have let us go this time, but I don't think they'll just let us roam Mystic Falls freely without a fight." Sheriff Forbes answered.
Caroline was sitting in the front seat next to Klaus; none of the other ladies volunteered to sit next to the killer.
"Fine let's just go to a motel outside Mystic falls and then we can figure things out." Caroline said tiredly, she still was in dire need of blood.
Klaus grimaced at the mention of 'motel' as a man of prosperity and wealth he never had to stoop that low and rent a room at a filthy motel. He always got the best. He started to think of hotel rooms with great views and dazzling lobbies.
"Klaus."
He woke from his fantasy to look at Caroline by his side. She had a hand held at her temple, massaging away a headache. She looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Right, so… a motel?" he asked not trying to hide the disgust.
"Yeah… A motel." She replied with a laugh.
"Great." He muttered.

After half an hour or so, everyone in the van was fast asleep except for Caroline and Klaus of course.
She was staring straight in front of her with a faraway look. Klaus noticed the crease between her brows. She looked troubled, like she was watching something horrible unveil before her. Klaus looked ahead of him. He was searching along the roads for a good place to stay at. Something that didn't catch attention yet didn't reek of cheapness. The Town's police will have them as top priority to get rid of. They definitely didn't want to have them on their tails. Klaus sighed thinking of his own body still rotting in the warehouse. The ware house was outside Mystic falls but opposite where they were heading. Ignoring the urge to go to it, he is, instead, putting more distance between him and his corpse. feeling restless, he tightened his grip on the steering wheel. He wasn't getting anything done with the extra load he has. He looked at the rearview mirror at the women in the back seats, then at Caroline by his side. She was watching him.

"You okay?" she asked.
He laughed without humor, "I've been in a better mood."
She gave a small sad laugh, "Yeah, well, too bad."
He gave her a glare until he realized she was looking at her knees tiredly. His eyes softened.
"Hey want to hear something funny?" he asked her.
She looked at him expectantly.
"Have you ever heard of the leaning tower of Pisa?" after a while he realized she didn't answer, he looked at her sideways and almost laughed at her expression. She was looking at him with an 'are you kidding me?' look. He grinned before continuing, "Alright, I'm sure you have. Well, I was there with my family during the time it was being built. It was Rome, year 1178. It wasn't that magnificent then, construction was slow and the tower only had 2 floors. We were getting accustomed to our vampire powers and decided to travel the world. Kol and I thought it would be fun to duel at its side in the middle of the night. No one was there of course, except Elijah who was watching us while he read an Italian novel, and Rebekah who was cheering us on. Finn was god knows where. Kol and I fought bare handed. It was a good fight, lasted about two hours until I…" Klaus chuckled remembering what happened. Caroline was listening intently with a smile. She liked how he seemed carefree when he talked about his family.
"I accidently pushed Kol too hard. He flew across hitting the tower with a force. That night one of the tower's base columns lost a good inch or two. People thought it was due to the poor soil that held the column, that it engulfed part of it when in fact it was Kol's hand that swiped off the base when he fell."
"Oh my God!" Caroline giggled, "So you're telling me..." she said looking at the road trying to process the story, "That you and your family were the reason of one of the greatest miracles of the ancient world?"

Klaus looked at her with a grin, glad he brought her back to her perky self.
"Oh my God!" she repeated with a laugh.
He never told anyone that piece of his history. Only his family knew of it and kept it as an inside joke whenever the tower was mentioned in conversation. He felt her lightning up.
"Thank you." She said smiling at him.
Klaus looked at her with an intense gaze, trying to understand why he deserved her thanks. He perked her up. He made her forget about her troubles for a mere second. That was probably the best gift she's been given in a while. Caroline took in a deep breath before looking away, Damn him and his intense looks. She felt him bore into her eyes, as if he was looking at her soul. She felt lightheaded for a second.
Klaus looked back at the road.
"That looks promising." He said pointing at a motel. It looked clean despite the dark. It had a cheery look to it that most motels lacked.
"Yeah." Caroline said trying to think straight again, "Let's just stop here."
She wanted to get out of the van as quickly as possible. She was suddenly feeling hot and she couldn't help but truly notice how close she was to Tyler's/ Klaus's body. She looked at him. Maybe she was feeling things because her eyes told her she was looking at Tyler. Even though she knew Tyler never gazed at her like that, not with so much intensity.
Instead of parking the car at the half full parking lot of the motel, Klaus parked it between thick trees in the forest close by.

The police are probably looking for the stolen car as a clue to where they might be. Best to keep it hidden along with themselves.
Caroline gently woke Bonnie, Mrs. Lockwood and her mom.
Sheriff Forbes thought it best that she rent the rooms while the rest keep out of sight. Klaus, always the gentleman, insisted he paid.

They reached the rooms. It was clean and the furniture was decorated to imprint the illusion of home. The curtains were cream colored, the couches were peach, the carpet was a soft brown color and the kitchen was a faded yellow. There was a cheap TV set. ("Thank God!" Caroline said.") There was also a computer that had a card attached to it. Bonnie picked it up and read aloud, "'If internet is needed please consult the reception with extra fee.' Good to know. " she commented.
There were two identical rooms attached to the living room. Both side by side. The wallpapers were a navy blue, the dressing tables were brown, and the beds were draped in soft faded blue covers and pillows. Caroline nodded her head approvingly. The whole apartment was at a good standard compared to what they thought it would be. After everyone had a chance to shower- and Caroline went out to hunt out a rabbit or two- they decided to sit down and plan out.

Bonnie started, "okay so your body is technically dead but since you are still here it can be saved. Now if I return you back to it right now you will die."
Klaus raised his eyebrows before adding, "And the entire vampire race, or at least the ones you care about will die, Bonnie"
"Exactly, and we don't want that." Bonnie confirms. She noticed the threat in his tone.
"So what are we gonna do?" Caroline intervenes.
"We are going to heal his body before returning him to it. By doing that we must get blood in his system… vampire blood. It will heal the wound in his heart caused by the stake and then he'd be as good as new."
"Wait…" Caroline laughed with a roll of her eye, "Bonnie if vampire blood can heal a heart's wound from a stake then why couldn't all the vampires that have been staked heal themselves too? I mean if vampire blood is the solution. How come that didn't work out for the lot?" She said raising her hands out as if to say 'duh'.
"Caroline… when a wooden stake pierces a vampire's heart, it doesn't aim to injure the organ itself, it aims to injure the spirit of the vampire, as cheesy as it sounds. Once the spirit is gone from the body aka death, the body no longer needs to heal itself. That's where most people get it wrong. People think that the body stops healing and then the spirit leaves, but actually it's the other way round"
Klaus narrowed his eyes at the words.
"Klaus survived the stake because it pierced his heart but not his spirit, by then he was already in Tyler's body." Bonnie explained.
"Right." Caroline whispered after a pause, "Bonnie, how do you know all this?" she asks softly, already knowing the answer.
Bonnie looked down. "Gramms came to me in a dream. She told me how I can save Klaus. She told me how to save you, Stefan and Elena. That's where I got the whole idea from in the first place. She likes you guys and sees goodness in you. Even Damon who's a nutcase." She said with a grin. Caroline noticed her friend's eyes brighten. She was about to cry.
"Oh Bon." She whispered before walking up to where bonnie sat on the couch and put an arm around her. Her other hand caressed her shoulder tenderly, "It's okay." Caroline looked up at the ceiling and yelled aloud, "Thank you Gramms! I love you!"

Bonnie started to laugh and so did everyone else, even Klaus chuckled.
Everyone stared at him, realizing he was there. Their smiles were contagious; Klaus couldn't help but smile back.
He cleared his throat then stood up. "Very well, it seems we have a plan on our hands. Early in the morning we will head to the warehouse, and do the ritual there. Then I get back to my body and Tyler to his." He then muttered under his breath, "then I get out of this one pony town. Everyone happy?"
Everyone nodded except Caroline.

"Please stop! Please stop!" she screeched out. "Please."
The pain faded away temporarily but she knew it would come again.
"I don't hurt anyone, I swear!" she continued to cry out, "I swear, I can handle the urges! I can!"
Her father came into view with a blood bag. He looked worried and concerned in the most twisted way.
"If you can handle it" he said bringing the blood bag nearer to her and watching her face contort, revealing the true vampire she is, "this wouldn't happen."
"Im sorry." she whimpered, "I'm sorry."
"I'm conditioning you to associate vampirism with pain. In time the thought of human blood would repress your vampire instincts completely." He explained, as if he were talking to her about the weather.
Caroline shook her head, "that's impossible." She looked up at her father, her face soaked and pale, "Daddy you can't change who I am."
"Yes I can." He whispered back.
"No." she knew the pain was gonna come back. She knew the burning sensation was to return.
"You remember this, sweetheart?" he asked, she knew he was talking about it. It was gonna come back, in mere seconds.
"No. No, No, No, NO," she cried out as he opened up the windows, allowing the sunlight to seep through. "NO!"

"No, please stop." She twisted in her sleep. Suddenly she sat up with a gasp. Her hands flew to her face. A few strands stuck to her cheeks. She ran a hand through her hair, feeling the cold sweat that drenched it.
It was night time. She shared a room with Bonnie while her mom and carol Lockwood shared the other. Klaus slept on the couch.
She looked around her, thankful she was back at the motel. She started to half sob half gasp, she couldn't cry properly, she was so out of breath she felt like she couldn't breathe.
She grasped at her throats feeling he chest tighten even more by the second. She felt… broken.
Her feet touched the floor dragging her out to the living room. She covered her mouth with the palm of her hands to keep her gasps from waking Klaus. She couldn't stop hyperventilating. Her chest was heaving so rapidly she wondered what the hell was wrong with her.

She walked into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. She saw a teenager who was as pale as white paper. The sweat was covering her chest and face, her golden locks, which lost their gleaming texture, were sticking out, wet. Her ribcage heaved rapidly. She let the tap water fall on her neck and head, allowing the cool liquid to drain away the fear. She then washed her face. Unfortunately she was still hyperventilating. She started to get worried again, was she sick?

Someone knocked on the door causing her to jump. Her heart hammered against her chest as she opened the door to reveal Klaus.
"Are you- Caroline?" he sounded shocked. His eyes widened at the sight of her.
She looked like she just saw a thousand ghosts, "Who hurt you?" he angrily asked her.
"No one. At least not now. I just. I feel. I can't breathe. What's wrong with me?" she gasped, trying to make her words understandable.
"Hey, hey." Klaus held her face in both hands as he stared into her eyes. "It's okay. Was it a dream?"
Caroline nodded. He pulled her to the floor making her sit cross legged on the cool tiles. He sat by her both leaning against the bath tub.
"Calm down, it's just a panic attack."
"Panic attack?!"
"Shhh stop fidgeting. Just try to breathe slowly."
He sat by her for a while helping her steady her heart rate and breathing.
After what seemed like an eternity, Caroline felt calm again.
Klaus watched her. Even when she was distressed she looked beautiful. He tucked a flyaway strand of hair behind her ear.
"Do you mind me asking what it was about?" he asked gently. Funnily enough, his English accent mixed with Tyler's voice was soothing her.
She looked timidly at him.
"It was my dad." She answered, "I dreamt of my dad torturing me with sunlight and vervain."
Klaus's eyes darkened with anger. Fathers… he thought with distaste.
"He was trying to fix me," she continued, "he thought that if he tortured me enough I was going to forget the urges blood creates. But he was wrong. It didn't work. I am what I am, and he couldn't take it. He hated me or at least that's what I thought." She paused, "turns out he loved me but in his own twisted way." She gave a laugh.
Klaus could only watch and listen.
"I still love him, my dad. He… he was just looking out for me. People tend to show their feelings for others in the oddest ways sometimes. Torturing me was his way."
Klaus admired her view of things. So… optimistic and loving. Even to those who don't deserve it.
"What brought that dream on, though?" he asked her.
She looked at him, "yesterday when the officer was torturing me. I couldn't help but remember what my dad did. Even when I fell unconscious the torture continued, instead the officer was my dad and he wasn't trying to fix me. He was trying to kill me." her voice broke. A tear fell, but Klaus managed to capture it. He wiped it away slowly allowing his fingers to linger there. They held the gaze. It was too intense for Caroline that she looked away.
She wanted to kiss him so bad, but she kept telling herself it wasn't Tyler.
So what if it isn't Tyler! A little voice at the back of her head argued.
"Okayyyy I need to get back to sleep."
Klaus nodded, "I'll escort you to your room."
Caroline laughed, "Still old fashioned aren't you? But thanks anyway. Girls this century can handle themselves pretty well." She said mock-defiantly.
Klaus chuckled. He knew Caroline can handle herself. She was probably one of the strongest women he has ever met.

Caroline got up with the help of Klaus. She stopped at the doorway to look back at him. He was smiling slightly at the floor when he looked up at her.
"Thank you again." She said before leaving him in the empty bathroom.
