"And how does it work?" The blonde demanded, after rinsing the remaining of toothpaste on the corner of her mouth.

Klaus, next to her, wearing only a gray stretch pants, because he knew how much she loved to see his naked chest, spat on the sink and washed his toothbrush. "Well, you'll drink my blood, and then I will lovingly snap your neck."

"Lovingly." Caroline nodded. "Right." That was what she feared the most. What if it doesn't work and she just dies? And he would literally kill her, does she want her husband to kill her by 'lovingly' snapping her neck?

Klaus had a small smile as he saw the wheels turning in her pretty little blonde head of hers. They talked about it before, but she kept thinking about it, and he didn't want to force her.

He cupped her face nicely for her to look at him. "You don't have to do it, sweetheart." He couldn't bare even the single thought of forcing her to become like him. Immortal.

"But I want to." She answered looking back. "I just… don't know how I'll be, and how it works." She muttered, leaving the bathroom to prepare the bed.

He followed her as she got rid of the decorative cushions on their bed. "I have trouble imagining myself as a vampire you know."

He helped her, removing the useless cushion from his side of the bed, near the window because Caroline liked to stay close to the door.

Klaus huffed as he clearly remembered how he became a vampire, when he turned into a blood sucker he didn't really have a choice back then, her mother took his free will. He didn't have the chance to imagine himself as he is now. So no, he didn't understand how she felt. And it unnerved him to not be able to reassure her.

"You don't have to do this if you are not ready, love. We can wait."

Caroline sighed and covered herself under the warm blanket. "But I don't want to be all wrinkled and old whilst you stay young and beautiful."

Klaus smiled at that. He couldn't say it enough to her that no matter what, he will love her unconditionally, even if she couldn't go to the toilets on her own anymore, yet she always seemed to punch his shoulder and snorting a 'yeah, right' as an answer to his love declaration.

It's true he would love to have her till the end of times, be immortal together, traveling the world, discovering every country, and every civilizations. But he couldn't force her to do something she didn't want, it would kill him.

"I'll love you no matter how old you look."

As he predicted, Caroline punched his shoulder and snorted. "Yeah, right, Casanova."

They were face to face on the bed, under the cover, looking at each other. He could see she still had some apprehensions and questions. "Tell me what is bothering you, Caroline."

Caroline wriggled a little bit, embarrassed. "Ok, but don't make fun of me."

"When did I ever mocked you, sweetheart?" Klaus's eyebrows lifted, in a fake innocence manner.

"Remember when I asked for a dress when Elena stole mine, it was a matter of life or death and you laughed at me."

Klaus smiled again. He just loved to see this young girl taking such importance over futile things, as he, the old vampire, didn't seem to care about anything else.

But thank to her, now he enjoyed the simplest things in life.

"Anyway", Caroline started, cutting his line of thoughts. "Do you want to know the first question I asked myself about being a vampire?"

"Go ahead. I'll answer." Klaus said with a genuine smile.

"Don't mock me but…" Caroline bit her mouth to find a way to say it out loud. "Will I have my period if I am vampire?"

Klaus's eyes widened. That was the first question she had in mind? Not even bloodlust, or fangs. He couldn't help but laugh. He covered his mouth to hide his laughing smile.

Caroline frowned. "I knew it, never mind." She turned her back on him, pretending to try to sleep to dismiss their conversation.

"No, no, sweetheart. I am sorry." Klaus apologized, caressing her shoulder to soothe her. "I just never thought it'll be your first question. It is just so…"

"Naïve?"

"Innocent." He corrected, "And I love you for that."

Caroline smiled. Since he first said the three words, even though he took his time, he couldn't seem to get enough of it and repeated it at least once a day. If Caroline thought it might get boring at the end, she was wrong.

She turned around to look at him, trying to hide her smile, she was supposed to be mad at him. "So, will I have my period once I become a vampire? Because it'll be a big pro point to add."

"No, you won't have your period." He heard her sister talk about it once, and even if he tried to forget this conversation, he remembered Rebekah saying she didn't miss 'surfing the crimson tide'. His face suddenly darkened. "But you know what it means."

Caroline lost her smile. She knew what it meant but she got used to the idea that she won't have a child with her husband, if she was still human, he was a vampire, dead and so he couldn't conceive. "I know." A shy smile appeared. "But we could still adopt."

Klaus tried to smile back, but it killed him to know he couldn't give her that. A family. He was dead and he only could offer death. She often dismissed this idea, saying that she loved him and he was making her the happiest woman on earth, but he couldn't remove the idea that he couldn't give her a blonde child. Klaus knew she always wanted children, even if she never told him directly.

They talked about it, and Caroline seemed glad to adopt, even if they didn't plan on it soon, it was still a possibility.

He couldn't believe how he became the loving husband excited at the idea to welcome a child with the love of her life when years ago, he was a monster killing for sport. She definitely changed him for the best.

"Of course, we can." He caressed her cheek lovingly, "Do you have other questions?" he asked, dismissing his own interrogations he had in mind. How a couple of vampire could actually raise a baby?

Caroline hummed, "Well, does it hurt when you become a vampire?"

Klaus thought about it. It was such a long time ago, but he remembered one thing. "Well, when the fangs starts growing out your gums it might hurt. But other than that, not really."

Caroline nodded. "Will I be hotter, like in Twilight?"

Klaus laughed, she forced him to watch this dreadful movie and he cringed during 122 minutes (not that he was counting), muttering for himself how it really worked.

"I know you want to hear that you can't be sexier than you are now, sweetheart."

"Good answer." Caroline smiled fully, chuckling lightly at the fake seriousness of her question.

"But if your next question is if we glow in the sun like diamonds, I won't answer."

Caroline giggled, a sound he couldn't get enough of either. "No. I want to ask how can I be killed?"

Klaus frowned, suddenly very serious. "Nice change of topic love." He didn't know if he should tell her, but she had every rights to know that. "Well, a stake through the heart, fire, or the sun. Without your daylight ring, of course."

Caroline nodded, keeping the question of holy water or the cross to herself, or even garlic. She saw him eat garlic bread.

"But you can't be killed."

"Being an original, hardly."

Caroline nodded once again. "But if you're dismembered, does the member grow back or do you have to stitch it back?"

Klaus raised his head, supporting it with his hand, an elbow on the bed. "Trying to find ways to kill me, sweetheart?"

"I was just wandering." She said with a small smile. "In case you cheat on me, I'll make sure I hide a precise member of yours that's all."

Klaus laughed, falling back on the bed. He always laughed at how she tried her best to look so serious when she said things like that, even if she didn't think about it. She didn't, right?

And he loved when they had witty remarks for each other, a good way to tease.

After his laughed extinguished, he got closer to her, hovering her. "And what member do you talk about?"

Caroline caressed his arms, a cocky smile on her face. "I think you know perfectly."

Seeing as how the mood changed, her pupils larger, just like his own, he kissed her, her hands already cupping his face lovingly, their tongues always finding each other to battle.

"You'll miss it too much." He added as he stopped the kiss.

She grabbed his neck, "True", she said, before melting their mouth together once more.


FLUFFY AF!

Sorry for those who hate the idea of a Klaroline baby, but I couldn't resist. I LOVE BABIES! (Not a good reason enough for me to watch TO, unfortunately)

Hope you liked it!
