(Caroline's P.O.V)
Ok class, pair up! You will have to plan, coordinate and host an event due two weeks away. It will be your main grade. I'll write down the themes and you'll pick randomly. "Excuse me Mrs. Callaghan, there are not enough students. I think Caroline will have to do this task by herself." – Amy said and put on a fake sad face. Ugh, she was asking for it. Before I could answer, Mrs. Callaghan said "I'm sure that by your experience, you can handle it. Can't you, Forbes?"
"Of course. I won't disappoint you." – I smiled. I would host the best event this teacher will ever see in her entire life! "Ok, let's see wich theme goes to Amy and Sarah." The themes started being determined, but I didn't really pay attention, my head was full of ideas. Suddenly, I heard my name being called. "Caroline, the only theme left is valentine's dinner." - I nodded. I would plan an unforgettable dinner!
"I'm here!" – I yelled as I walked inside of Stefan and Rebekah's temporary house. They were here for two weeks already and my relationship with Barbie was doing pretty well – of course some calls from Klaus made her behave – but she was actually really nice.
"No need to yell, Caroline. We're all vampires here." – She smiled. "Hey Bekah!" – I said and gave her a quick hug. "Stefan is out so, what do you wanna do?"
"I don't know. I just came here to say hi. I have this big event I need to plan for college and it has to be perfect!" She looked at me and gave me a knowing smile. "From the look on your face, I would say that that bitch Amy challenged you." Yep, she knew me very well. "Not with all the words, but yeah." I poured some juice in two glasses. "So, let's start! I have nothing to do and we both know the best parties happen when we are together." I handed a glass to her. "I don't know…"
"Shut up! I'm helping you. Now, let's go!" She grabbed my hand and started walking. "Alright, alright." Ugh, she could be so bossy sometimes.
After 2 long hours discussing and finally agreeing about the details of my dinner, me and Rebekah lied down In her bed, both exhausted.
"So…when are you going to New Orleans?" I stared at her but she was looking at the ceiling. "What? Who says I'm going?"
"No one. It's just you and my brother can't live one day without talking to each other and Nik can't help bringing you up when he calls me. You guys are too obvious." If I could blush, I'm sure I would be burning red. "It's not like that… I mean, I don't… We didn't talk about this."
"Well, you should. My brother is crazy about you and I can see you care about him too. You just have to stop denying." This time, it was my turn to look at the ceiling. "But, how can I do that? I mean, he has done so many terrible things…I can't just get over that!" She scoffed. "Have you tried? Caroline, you're my friend, but you can be so stubborn! You have the chance to be happy but you refuse to give in."
"What kind of person would I be if I started dating someone who only brought misery to my friends lives?" She turned to me and took a deep breath. "Someone who deserves to be happy. You're out of Mystic Falls…start living! And the first rule of truly living is do the thing you're most afraid of."
I got up and started pacing. "You know what? You're right. It's my turn to be happy! Oh my God…What should I do? Do I tell him or…I don't know!" Rebekah got up and put both hands on my shoulders. "CAROLINE, CALM DOWN!" I came out of my daze "Sorry, but you put those thoughts in my head, now DEAL WITH IT!" She let go of me and said "Just relax, I'll take care of it."
"REBEKAH MIKAELSON, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO DO?" She got up and left the room. "You'll see. Now go have your daily talk with my brother, I'm going to take a shower." I could hear a door being closed. "What?" – I screamed. "Stefan can't keep any secrets from me, darling."
I stood open mouthed for about 5 seconds before I made my way to the door. Ughhh, I'm gonna kill Stefan! But, not right now. I had a phone call to make.
