Sorry guys for not writing for so long! Haven't been catching up with the last few eps of tvd so here's the best I could do from where I've watched until. Hope it's good xx

Caroline awoke to the scent of cinnamon sticky buns, rousing her from her dream about her and Klaus chasing each other around a meadow of pretty flowers with dew drops on their plump flower buds, glistening under the early morning sun, and then shedding their clothes and going for a cooling dip under a magnificent waterfall. Furrowing her brows, she wondered how her mind conjured up such a dream. Strange, but still pleasant. She missed him, missed his touch. And it had only been less than 24 hours. God. Mmm, her tongue darted out to moisten her lips. Then it all sunk in. Cinnamon sticky buns. That had been Carol Lockwood's favourite. Damn it, she ran her fingers through her messy hair and held her head between her hands. Carol Lockwood was gone. And Tyler was gone.

He was gone. For good. Forever.

"You couldn't have done anything. Breathe, girl." She mentally chided herself, "It wasn't your fault. At least he's alive." All the memories they had together flashed before her and she smiled. One thing about being a vampire, she thought, was that your memories stayed fresh as though it just happened and they didn't fade over time. On the other hand, humans would slowly forget bits and pieces and then one day, they would realise that they could not remember anything anymore, and that was absolutely heartbreaking. At least, she had these memories of Tyler to last her lifetime, however long it would be. And maybe, just maybe, she could move on.

As she nibbled on the cinnamon sticky buns her mother had bought, she found herself thinking about Klaus. Tyler was gone because of him, but she couldn't deny the fact that Klaus was the only person she could depend on for anything now. "He was your first love. I intend to be your last." Those were words that would always echo in her heart. She knew he meant them, she could even envision some kind of life with him. It didn't help that she was starting to see the good side of Klaus, the side which he didn't really show anyone but her, that side of him which had noted the rapid beating of a hummingbird's heart and appreciated how hard it worked in order to survive each day and made him think about how satisfying being a human must be. She sighed. They were alike, weren't they? They both hadn't willingly become vampires but had somehow adapted to it and became who they were today. They had retained their humanity, they both missed how things were in the past; she even missed her dad, and he missed his family. But one thing they both knew was that they were better off now. She was less insecure and much less of a mess, fiercer. She could only think of one way to say it: he was her soul mate.

She reached for her phone and dialed his number from memory, silently cursing his ringtone of passenger's let her go. That bitch. He had clearly meant for her to hear it. She smiled.

Well you only need the light when it's burning low.

Only miss the sun when it starts to snow.

Only know you love her when you let her go.

And she knew it was his reminder to himself that he would not let her go, because she knew he loved her. Tt was nice knowing that someone loves you and would never let you go, even if it meant eternity.

He answered.

"Morning sweetheart. I hope you enjoyed the dream because it was just a teaser."

"A teaser to what?"

"We're going to a waterfall. Hurry up and hop in the car, love."
