Klaus
I was packing my things.
I was ready to leave and all i could thing about was that kiss.
I knew i shouldn't have done it.
It woke things inside me, desires.
I still could taste her in my mouth.
I had to leave quickly before i changed my mind.
While i was getting ready i stumbled upon something i thought it was lost.
It was a picture of her singing in the club i met her in 1920.
I loved that time.
It was one of her happiest lives.
Me, her, Rebekah and Stefan.
What more could i ask for?
I still remember the crazy things we did every night.
Klaus 1920
''Bring two more shots'' i shout to the barman
''We have to stop. Your sister would kill me if i get drunk again.'' Stefan said looking at her.
''Don't worry mate, i'll take the blame as usual. The night just began and i need alcohol.''
''Just because you can't dance without it. No talent.''
''Please, i learned you all the tricks you know.'' i said and drank my fill.
''A new singer is coming today.''
''Why is that interesting?'' i asked bored.
''Because she is kind of famous here. Beauty and voice. And they say she is not so hard to get. But probably not your type. She is not brunette.''
''I actually prefer blondes, you know.''
''I never seen you with one before.''
''I try to avoid them now.'' i said and took another sip.
I didn't want to remember her, not now.
''I smell there is a story behind that, brother.''
''There is but tonight it's not the night to share it.'' Rebekah said and sat next to Stefan.
''Have you been drinking?'' she asked Stefan.
''Only you.'' he said and kissed her.
The kiss lasted a long time and i started to feel nauseating.
''Hey, can you please stop before i rip your heads off.''
''Nick, you should definitely go for the new singer. You need to take some steam off.'' said Rebekah and laughed with Stefan.
Gloria started talking so i didn't bother to answer.
''We have an old acquaintance here tonight. Please welcome once again our favourite girl, Caroline.''
Hearing that name turned all my attention to the stage.
It couldn't be.
''Hello everyone. I'm back and i learned new tricks. Are you ready for the night of you life? It's time to dance until we drop to the floor.'' she said smiling.
The crowd screamed and clapped like crazy.
Fuck the heavens it was her.
I could see her intoxicating blue eyes.
It was like she had a glowing aura around her.
I felt like i was gonna explode from happiness.
It took me all i could to not get up and hugged her.
I still couldn't believe my luck.
''Nick'' Rebekah said looking at me.
''I know'' i said looking at Caroline.
''What did i miss?'' Stefan asked looking at both of us.
I gave Rebekah a warning look, i didn't want him to know yet.
''Nothing. The singer is just Nik's type. She is stunning.''
''So will you go for her?'' Stefan asked me curious.
''Definitely'' i said
She started singing and moving with the melody.
I couldn't breath, she took all the air from the room.
She was beyond words with that short pink dress and her hair falling freely to her back.
And she looked so happy, she was enjoying herself and i was enjoying her.
Once again i had her in my grasp.
I wished this time things will be different.
I looked at her intensely.
She caught my gaze and for a moment it was only me and her.
She sang a few lyrics looking directly at me , like it was a private show.
When her gaze returned to the crowd i felt angry as hell.
She sang a few more songs and then she took a break.
As she was getting down the stage, everyone came to talk to her.
The girls were asking her questions and i noticed the men try to touch her and inviting her to dance.
''Later boys, i need i drink first.'' she said and came next to Gloria.
''How was i?'' she asked
''Amazing as always Care. Good to have you back. I assume it didn't go well with Andrew.'' she said
''I was bored as always after two months they lose all their charm not even money can keep me near them. I want fun, passion.'' Caroline said and i listened to every word.
''You'll find it. Choose a different type of guy.'' she said and went to sing herself.
''Mmm... I can't think of that now. I didn't even have one shot.'' she shouted.
''Then you can drink with me.'' i said and offered her a glass.
She looked up and smiled when she saw it was me.
''I can't. You are a stranger. I haven't seen you here before.''
''I came while you were away but you might remember me from before. We eye-fucked while you were singing.'' i pointed out.
She took a sip from my glass and said.
''That doesn't sound like me.'' she remarked and left my glass near me.
I took a sip from the same place her lips were touching just a moment ago and looked at her.
She was licking her lips seductively.
''Oh, it was definitely you.''
''I am going to dance stranger.'' she said, grabbed the first man she could see and lead him to the dance floor.
''Nick.'' i told her.
She danced moving her hips and changing partners often.
Many times she looked at me and always finding me watching her boldly.
''You have lost it man.'' said Stefan
''Oh, go back to dancing with my sister.''
''So you could watch her in peace. You do that all night. Snap out of it or make a move.''
''I will you can bet on that.''
Caroline
''What's wrong with you?'' my sister, Sophie, asked while she was fixing my hair.
''Nothing. I am fine as usual.'' i answered
''You are distracted. You haven't even complained me once for the way i did your hair and you are singing to yourself all afternoon sis.''
''Oh, let her be. She has a crush.'' Gloria said winking at me.
''Really? But you came back just yesterday.''my sister said
''I do not have a crush'' i said defensively.
''That's why you were looking at Klaus while you were dancing with all the other men in the club except him?'' Gloria said
''First who is Klaus? And if we are referring to the same man, Nick never asked me.''
''He told you to call him Nick?'' Gloria asked shocked.
''Isn't that his name?'' why was that important?
''Only his sister calls him Nick.''
''How many names does he have anyway?'' i asked
''Too many. And now it's time. Your crowd is waiting for you.''
I got up with confidence, no one knew how nervous i was.
No one knew how hard it was sometimes to smile.
The stage gave me power.
I heard them cheering and all eyes were turned on me.
And that was it i was transforming.
From the insecure girl to the music star.
I sang and danced without a care in the world.
When it was over i felt my legs giving up.
I had to sit.
I was climbing down the stage when someone got me and took me in his arms.
''Nick! Put me down.'' i said
''You finally noticed me. I was looking at you all night and not even once did you return my gaze.'' he said and put in the booth.
When his hands left my body i felt cold.
''I wasn't really paying attention to anything today. The music consumed me.''
''Is that my rival for you affections, music?''
''Of course, it's my first love after all. What about you?''
''If you are talking about arts then i prefer painting.'' he said
I was intrigued.
This man was different.
There was something about him that made him irresistible.
And his looks.
That sexy, full lips, that soft blonde hair, the way his body fitted perfectly in his black suit.
And those eyes, they made me melt inside.
I never felt like this before.
''I would like you to paint me.'' i said finally.
''That's tempting. I have already thought a thousand poses for you. But i need something in return.'' he said and raised his brows.
''What?'' i said looking into his lips.
''Dance with me.'' he said
''Just a dance?'' i said confused
''Don't look disappointed love. While we are dancing i can whisper seductively into your ear all the unmentionable things that i want to do with you.'' he said and made me shiver already.
''Shall we?'' he said
''We shall.''
The song that was playing was fast paced and sexy.
It was exactly what we needed.
His hands were all around me again.
He twirled me around many times.
He seemed to enjoy my laugh.
He picked me up in the air.
I smiled as he didn't put me down immediately but kept me there, my face so close to him, i could see the depths of those sinful blue eyes.
His nose brushed against mine.
His lips were near mine.
Just a breath away.
My whole body was tingling from a blast of electric energy.
I had never wanted someone so bad in all of my life.
I imagined the way his mouth would taste, the ways his hands could bring me pleasure.
My feet touched the ground and reality.
He was looking at me like he wanted to devour me.
He pulled me close facing me and grinned wickedly as i leaned into him.
"I want you…Now!" i said breathlessly.
I saw lust taking over his reason.
He moved to kiss me and i stopped him.
''Not here. Come.'' i said and we got out of the bar.
A few meters down was my house.
It was near the bar and my sister wouldn't come home before the bar was close.
We got in and i didn't even had time to close the door before he kissed me hungrily.
I felt his whole body pressing mine against the door frame.
I wriggled my arms up around his neck and kissed him back just as hard.
At this kiss, there was no more thought.
Only touch and sense and need.
Klaus
I growled at her response to my kiss.
''Love, you make me feel like I'm about to die of pleasure." i said trying to control my rapid breathing.
I was finally touching her the way i had thought about for too long.
And because i had thought about it too long, all hell broke loose when i actually did it.
My hands were all over her body, relishing her every carve.
I could not control myself.
It was not sweet, it was primal.
I pulled her dress off her body almost ripping it.
He yanked the buttons of my shirt.
She explored my chest with her fingers.
Fuck, just one touch and i was ready to come undone.
I picked her up once more.
''Bed.'' i told her
''Over there.'' she told me and showed me her room.
Then she kissed me again and until we reached her bedroom there was no clothes left on us.
But we never made it to the bed.
She throw me down on the floor and got on top.
She was a sight for eyes the way her hair fell in her face and her breasts were bouncing.
I sat up and kissed her chest, savouring the taste.
''Nick.'' she moaned
Her moan was my undoing.
I needed her now.
I turned us around so she was beneath me.
The relief of feeling her beneath me was equally tormenting because i needed to be closer.
''Take me now,'' she said
"Love, you don't know how fucking sexy that sounds coming from your mouth.'' i said and thrust inside her.
I was inside her and i felt her tight around me.
''Look at me.'' i told her.
She opened her eyes and looked into mine.
This was home.
Everytime she looked at me like that i was home.
I started moving inside her harder, faster, deeper.
I never tore my gaze from hers.
"Come for me, Caroline," i said, my voice hoarse against her throat.
"Come with me."
And then the world exploded as she screamed my name and i hers as we reached our climax.
I laid beside her exhausted in an effort to calm myself.
She was trying to catch her breath and failing miserably.
''That was...that was..'' she tried to say
''Yes it was.'' i said, i was still away, drunk from her.
''Do that again.'' she said and sit up to look at me.
''Gladly!'' i said and what ended, started once more.
Caroline
''Stop glowing like this.'' Sophie said
''What do you mean?'' i answered her
''For two week now you are in a delirious state, you keep smiling to yourself. It's annoying.''
''Oh come on. You are just jealous sister.'' i said and throw a pillow at her.
''Why would i be? Just because you found mr Perfect that comes to the bar everyday, treats you like a princess, looks like a fucking Greek god and also the sex is mind-blowing. No i am not jealous at all.'' she sighed and throw the pillow back at me.
''What can i say, i am a lucky girl. But you know it's not something serious right?'' i said and lost my smile.
It could never be.
I wouldn't allow it.
Love never ends well, it only brings you misery.
''Does he know that?'' my sister said looking at me warningly
''Because let me tell you that he is serious with you. You can see it from the way he looks at you and he is not even paying attention to other girls.''
''That can't be. I'm sure he just has a good time like me.'' i said but i knew inside me that wasn't true.
''You want to test it. Try being with another man. I'm sure he would get territorial. He likes you. Why don't you let him in? He makes you so happy.''
''You know why.''
''Because our parents died? Care, it was a horrible accident but that don't mean everyone would leave you. Look at us. You took care of me when they were gone. We made this work. You can let someone else in.''
It was true people was leaving me, my parents even though it wasn't their fault, Peter.
I couldn't go through this again.
''I'm gonna test your theory.'' i said determined
''You gonna give him a chance?'' she said looking happy
''Not exactly. I am gonna flirt with another guy and if his behaviour indicates that he is too serious about our relationship i will end it.'' i said and got up.
''You're making a mistake sister. I know you feel something for him even though you are denying it.''
It was true.
That's why i had to do this.
Later that night
I walked into the bar.
I was not working today so it was the perfect opportunity.
''Caroline, you finally came.'' said Rebekah and gave me a hug.
We had become very close this past two weeks.
It was like we knew each other forever.
''Rebekah.'' i said and hugged her back.
''Hello Caroline.'' Stefan said and raised a glass at me.
''I'm glad you came. It's boring with those too.'' she said
''Hey you were fine with us before she came'' said Stefan
''I raised the standards too high. You have to try harder now.''i said and smiled
''I knew you were trouble when i saw you at that stage.'' he remarked and smiled back at me.
''She is nothing but trouble.'' Klaus said.
He wrapped an arm around my waist and brought me closer to him.
''And you love it!'' i said
''Yes, i do.'' he said and captured my lips.
The kiss was just as passionate as the first time.
I lingered my lips on his afraid that after tonight i might not have the chance to do it again.
''Hi'' i said and smiled
''Welcome back.'' he said and released me.
''That's too much for my poor stomach. Rebekah are you ready to dance?''
''Always.'' she said and they were gone.
''So what do you want to do today?'' he asked
''Mmm, i don't know. Stay here for a while and then go for a walk. I love strolling the city at night with you by my side.'' i said
It was true we had explored it almost all.
We had gone to parks, theatres, cafés, clubs and we usually found a quiet place and talk for hours.
He wanted to show me everything this town had to offer.
''Me too.'' he said and looked at me.
Just one look made me have butterflies in my stomach.
I had to stop this.
''I want to dance.'' i said
''Let's go.'' he said and was ready to get up
''No, i don't want to dance with you.'' i said fast
''What?'' he said
''See you in a minute'' i said and left before he could stop me.
Klaus
I had no idea what was going on.
I just watched her get up, talk to a another man before leading him to the dance floor.
What the hell?
Who was he?
She never had interest in other guys than me from the day we met.
She love dancing with me all night.
What changed?
Was she starting to get bored?
She had said that she was easily bored.
That there was a point that guys lose all their charm and then she was leaving them.
But that was other guys not me.
What have i done wrong?
I heard her laughing and i felt my fangs emerging.
I was the one that made her laugh,
I was the one that swept her off her feet.
I was the one for her.
I was the one that loved her.
I hadn't felt this angry in a long time.
This man was not going to survive the night.
And for the first time i was angry at her too.
She hasn't even look at me once since the dance started.
I will show her that it's not so easy to get rid of me I thought and walked towards her with the rage controlling my actions.
Klaus (present time)
I had almost finished packing when Rebekah stormed in.
''Klaus he is alive. It worked.'' she said
''Alaric he is alive and he is a vampire. He tried to capture me in the school. I managed to get away.''
''Damn our mother.'' i said
''We have to get away before the sun comes down. But Klaus he has Caroline.''
''What?''
I couldn't concentrate.
He had her.
Not again.
This time i wouldn't let anyone take her.
I would protect her.
I didn't care about the cost.
Why always her?
''I am going in there.'' i said and stormed to the door.
''No, please Klaus he can't be killed, we tried. And he has the white oak tree.''
''You want me to leave her here. Are you out of your mind. Don't you care?''
''Of course i do. But they will save her Klaus. They will. Let her gang help her. I don't want to lose you. Please.'' she said almost crying.
''I won't trust her life in their hands. She is mine to protect.''
''If you are killed, she dies too.''
''I won't get killed.''
''So you don't care about what i say. Go save her then see if i care. But don't play the hero to me. You have killed her on your own once. You have drained of her blood yourself. So now don't tell me you should be the one to save her.''
I stopped as the words hit me.
''You have no idea what you are talking sister.'' i said
''All i know is that the same night you killed her you also stake me. I forgave you for all this. Stay.''
''I'm going. Do whatever you want.'' i said and run to Caroline.
This is it. I hope you liked it. In the next chapter i will finish the twenties flashback and the scene in the 3x21. Till then please review. A good review is as good as hot hybrid sex! Also finally we had Klaroline scenes and in the next episode they have a date!
