This is random but is anyone reading this a New Girl fan? If so can we just take a moment and fangirl about the most recent episode?

Okay thanks ;)

Caroline rolled over in the bed, groaning into her pillow. Since the party at Mystique on Friday she had been hiding out in Katherine's townhouse. It was something she often did, although it wasn't usually wasn't because she was avoiding her brothers and a certain best friend of theirs. She buried her head further into the cream pillow, memories of Friday night filling her mind. I cannot believe I slept with him. The only bigger manwhore than Klaus Mikealson on the UES was Damon Salvatore. Oh god if this gets out. In that moment she swore to herself it wouldn't.

Katherine had been unusually quiet the whole weekend too which had worked out well for Caroline because she hated lying to her best friend more than anything. Actually the only person she hated lying to more than Katherine was Stefan, so she had been dodging his calls all weekend too, claiming she was too busy helping Katherine plan her birthday party.

Which was half true. Katherine's seventeeth birthday was in a week and the girls were scrambling to make sure everything was perfect. Well at least Caroline was, she was a control freak, plus it made for a good distraction. Katherine seemed to be in a funk the last few days but Caroline was sure her party would cure her bad mood.

"Hey sleepy head. I want coffee before school so get up!" Katherine yelled from her ensuite.

Time to face the music.

XOXOXOXO

Katherine inhaled deeply from the cigarette before blowing it out in small puffs out of pure boredom. The sun felt even hotter in her starchy white shirt and grey skirt. But Katherine's nickname Kat suited her in many ways. Like a cat one of her favourite things to do was to stretch out in the sun and relax. Unfortunely she was still at school so leaning against the brick wall in the Pit was the best she could get.

Katherine was the only one there, no upperclassmen had free period at this time so she was pretty sure she would be left undisturbed, assuming no one skipped, which was unlikely considering it was only the first few days back. She had told Ms. Fields that she was having womanly pains and had been quickly excused from Physical Education by the burly teacher.

And techinally she wasn't lying, she was in pain, just not the type Ms. Fields assumed. No, instead Katherine felt confused and stressed which were two things she hated feeling. She loved living life on the edge, having fun and not focusing too much on feelings and repercussions or that sort of thing. But here she was, the life and soul of most parties, sitting by herself on a beautiful New York day.

The brunette quickly looked up, hearing footsteps coming around the corner, no teacher knew about this spot so she wondered what idiot had skipped class.

"How did you know about this place?" She asked, slightly shocked as Elijah Mikealson appeared in her view.

"I went to school here too, remember?" He spoke rather quietly and came to lean against the rails opoosite Katherine.

She took another long drag. Smoking on campus was grounds for suspension at Notting Prep but she was pretty sure he wasn't going to report her.

He watched her exhale slowly, "You know you really shouldn't be smoking Katerina. It's terrible for you."

She ignored his reprimanding tone and laughed bitterly, "So it's Katerina now is it? Because in class a few hours ago it was very much Katherine."

Elijah shook his head, looking up to the sky, unsure of how to respond.

"Why did you even take this stupid guest professor job? To mess with my head or something?" She exclaimed, getting angrier than she wanted.

"Of course not! I took this job as a favour for a headmistress who once helped me greatly in getting into my top college. I didn't even know you took Economics! You know me, you know I would never do that."

"I never thought you would reject me either. But I was wrong." Her eyes were filling with tears and she willed them to disappear, she didn't want him to know she cared.

Elijah looked down, meeting her eyes. He wanted to raise his hand and wipe the tear that was about to fall but he stopped himself. "I-" He began to speak but Katherine grabbed her bag quickly and stormed off, leaving him alone in the small courtyard staring after her.

XOXOXOXO

Caroline sped up into a sprint for the last part of her jog. It was still hot in New York so Central Park was filled with people enjoying the last days of summer weather. She exited the park and began walking to cool down, her apartment building was just across the street, another advantage of living on 5th Avenue.

The school day was long and tortuous, running into Klaus not once but three times, which seemed excessive and cruel in her opinion. The first was with Damon before assembly in which he rather rudely ignored her, the second was an awkward glance or two in AP English and then finally at lunch, this time she didn't even bother making eye contact when she felt his eyes burning a hole in the back of her head.

Her earphones thudded loudly in her ear but she drew them out as a limo pulled up beside her. At first she grinned assuming it was Stefan but she quickly recognised the license plate. Oh for the love of- Does God really hate me that much? Is this some sort of punishment for having a one night stand?

Klaus slowly emerged from the limo stopping Caroline in her tracks.

"Are you stalking me now or something?"

Klaus sighed,"I knew you ran in Central Park most evenings. Sometimes my brother joins you, in case you forgot."

Caroline scoffed, "No I didnt forget. But I'm surprised you remembered considering you seemed to forget my very existence today at school."

"I didn't want Damon to notice anything." He repiled stonily.

"Are you kidding? The way you were acting made him more suspicious!" She began to walk by, already so done with this conversation.

He grabbed her arm as she passed him but still wasn't looking at her, instead he pinched the bridge of his nose looking rather troubled. Something she wasn't used to seeing him be and Caroline suddenly felt a little bad, realising the position he was in.

"Look Damon never has to know." She spoke more softly than before.

"He would kill me. Or worse." His voice was low too.

"Worse than killing you?" She tried to lighten the conversation.

"Never speaking to me again." He repiled seriously.

"Look it was just a one time thing."

"Two time." He looked up at her, his mouth beginning to tug up into a smirk.

Caroline eyes narrowed as she continued,"A drunken mistake."

"I couldn't agree more." Now Klaus is back to himself completly, his eyes fixed on her eyes, face etched with mischief and amusement.

Caroline tries not to smile at his facial expression,"Goodbye Klaus." She turns, walking down the street and for some reason she desperately wants to look over her shoulder to see if he's watching her.

But she doesn't.

Because she's Caroline Salvatore and she has a reputation to uphold.

But if she had, she might have noticed a certain brunette watching both of them from inside the park.

XOXOXOXO
