I'd like to thank everyone who answered my question about the pace regarding Klaus and Caroline, some of you thought I was moving it too slow, others too fast. But the majority thought the pace was going good.
Answers to reviews:
hazyhalcyon - Well.. bed jumping inc xD
xxannixx06 - That's kinda what I want too, I want him to be this evil monster in front of others, but in private he'll be sweet and caring towards Caroline. And I tried to make a longer chapter just for you!
Ridy-Klaroline - Caroline will not be half witch in this story, but I will check out the story you mentioned.
Samantha Rose Haly - Haha, alright!
madam claire - Thank you! And alright.
little miss michelle - I shall continue ;D
jordanbear - I have been thinking about naming the child Henrik Kol Mikaelson, but I'm not sure yet. I'll see what I'll do. I might even do a vote or something where people can throw in name suggestions and what not. I'm glad you are loving my story and I hope you will continue reading it :D
zvc56 - Haha, no no, You rock! :D
myla84 - I figured he should be atleast a little understanding.
Hellzz-on-Earth - Oh, no one has been like harassing me about their pace, It's more of my own worry. I don't want them to just like go from Caroline denying her feelings for him to them being all lovey dovey with each other. Hopefully it doesn't come off that way in this chapter xD
I will be working in some Marcel and Rebekah in the coming chapters, I feel like I have been neglecting that part of this story.
thealluretodarkness - I'm glad you are okay with the quick progress, hopefully I didn't over-do it in this chapter! As for Marcel holding up his end of the deal, you'll just have to read and see. Rebekah and Klaus will be having a rather difficult relationship, in the coming chapters. I'll see how I will work that out, but hopefully you and the others wont hate it.
I have the show to thank for me just purely hating Klamille, I can't even stand them being friends. However I will put my feelings aside about them and try to write them as friends, and maybe a little 'jealousy' card for Caroline.
LoveOfAVampire - Katherine,Rebekah and Caroline time will come, hopefully you'll enjoy this slight Katherine/Caroline moment. As for Katherine and Elijah, I plan on writing more about them in the next chapter, having them talk or something. Cause in this chapter it was more of a quick "shock" to seeing one another. So they did not speak much xD
thebeastinsideusall - I would if I could :P
If i missed any guest reviews i will answer them in the next chapter!

It had been three days since she talked to Klaus, he was avoiding her and she did not like it. He would leave early, come back late. He would cast a quick glance her way and then shut himself inside his bedroom.
The atmosphere in the house was tense to say the least. Rebekah wasn't speaking to Klaus, infact she didn't really speak to anyone but Stefan.
Stefan had been distancing himself from Caroline recently, and she hated that aswell. And then there was Katherine, she would literally be everywhere. Ready with a snarky side comment.
She heard the frontdoor open and shut and knew Klaus was back home, she threw the pillow she had been hugging to the side and quickly got out of the bed to meet him by the stairs.
Of course he heard her move cause as she opened her door she heard his slam shut. Angry she turned on her heel and slammed her door shut too, to hell with all of them. She thought angrily and grabbed her coat and put it on.
She knew she had promised Klaus she wouldn't do anything stupid or leave the house. But if they were all behaving like children ignoring each other, then so would she.
She fished her phone out of her pocket and sent a quick message, and not 30 seconds later one Katherine Pierce stood in her doorway, phone and jacket in hand.
Katherine raised her eyebrow at the blonde as she nodded towards the balcony.
"I am not-" Katherine didn't get to finished her sentence as Caroline flashed over to her and slammed her hand over the brunettes mouth.
She pointed to her ears and then did a circle motion in the air, Katherine rolled her eyes but nodded. Both girls moved to the balcony and Caroline climbed over the railing and let go, landing gracefully on her feet.
Katherine stared down at her as Caroline motioned for her to jump. Groaning she climbed over the railing and let go as Caroline had.
She landed on her feet but let out a small hiss to the pain erupting in her feet. "Be glad you aren't wearing heels." Caroline said before she turned on her heel and marched around the pool and towards the woods.
"Where are we going?" Katherine asked as she rushed after the blonde. "Away from this god forsaken mansion." Caroline replied.
Katherine put on her jacket and fell into pace with Caroline, walking by her side. "Any reason you brought me with you?" Katherine asked.
"You are the only one who'll speak to me at the moment, and I could tell you were bored." Caroline said as they reached the woods.
"So a walk in the woods is your idea of making me unbored?" Katherine asked as she eyed the woods in slight disdain.
Caroline stopped in her tracks and turned to fully look at the brunette. "I could always snap your neck and kill you."
Katherine only looked at her as a small smirk made it's way to her lips. "Well look at that, you aren't just all happy and rainbowish, there is a little bite in you afterall."
Caroline rolled her eyes and continued her way into the woods. Katherine shook her head smirk still in place as she rushed after the blonde again.

"So you're avoiding her now?" Camille asked as she eyed Klaus whom sat on her couch.
"I wouldn't call it avoiding." Klaus muttered as he cast a side glance at the blonde bartender now turned therapist for him.
"Really? You haven't spoken a word to her since she practically confessed her feelings for you, saying she wouldn't leave you no matter what you did. I would call that avoiding, Klaus." Camille said as Klaus leaned back in the couch.
"Why won't you talk to her?" Camille pressed locking eyes with the man in front of her. "What are you afraid of?"
"I think it's time we changed the subject." Klaus said, not wanting to talk about Caroline anymore. Camille shook her head at him.
"Alright, let's talk about your family then. Have you spoken to Rebekah? What about Elijah?"
"Rebekah won't speak to me, let alone look at me. So nothing has changed there, as for Elijah...I have yet to get him back."
"So Marcel hasn't come through with his promise, how do you feel about that? Knowing your sister was right?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
Klaus lips twitched up slightly, he enjoyed the daring questions. The fact that Cami pushed for more, knowing full well he could end her life at any moment.
"I feel like Marcel is hiding something from me, and that something is his witch. As for Rebekah, we don't know for sure that she were right. The day is not over, Marcel might very well hand over my brother before the clock strikes 12." He replied.
"But it's been three days, chances are that it's not happening." Cami retorted. Klaus stood up and walked over to her window, glancing out at the street.
"Chances are that Marcel's witch is currently working on a way to kill my brother, chances are that she's the one not allowing him to give Elijah back to me." Klaus spoke.
"So why haven't you done anything about it yet? Threaten someone? Killed someone?" Cami asked as she stood up and walked over to him, coming to stand besides him.
Klaus turned his head slightly and glanced down at her as she looked up at him. He knew the answer and so did she. Caroline.
"You want to be better, for her." Cami spoke softly, Klaus moved his eyes away from her and re-focused on the busy street outside.
"Yes." He answered her with honesty.

Elijah flipped through one of the books on Davina's desk, in the three days he'd been awake he had been able to gain the young witches trust. He was surprised at how easily she had been to convince to work for him and his brother. Well, mostly for him.
He had however promised to help her with her magic in return, give her access to some of his mothers grimoires and he'd promised he would protect her from the witches and anyone who sought out to use her. Closing the book he pushed it away from himself. His mind wandering to Caroline Forbes and the child she was carrying.
He couldn't help but wonder how she was doing, how the child was doing. More importantly he was wondering what Niklaus was up to, if his brother somehow had managed to screw everything up yet because he was so hell bent on doing things on his own.
The door to the attic pushed open and the young witch stepped inside. "I come bearing more blood." She said as she closed the door behind her.
Elijah stood up and accepted the glass with blood. Downing the contents quickly he put the glass onto the table.
"You look like you want to ask something." Davina spoke as she eyed him. Elijah sent her a smile and gave her a slight nod.
"I was merely wondering when I might return to my family. It's been three days, and I would hope that you trust me fully by now." He replied eyeing the young girl.
Davina continued to eye him, and Elijah could see the hesitation in her eyes. "How do I know you'll come back?" She asked.
"I am a man of my word, granted that might not mean alot to you." He said.
"You're right, it doesn't." Davina quickly replied.
"However." Elijah started as he took a step towards her. "I will give you my word that I will return and help you with your magic, as I promised when we struck a deal three days ago."
Davina didn't look convinced, she knew she would be in trouble if Marcel stumbled in and saw that he was missing.
"What would I do if Marcel sees that you are missing? I mean...You are supposed to be daggered." She said folding her arms over her chest.
"Marcel sees you as a weapon, Davina. I doubt he would harm you when he needs you to control the witches of the Quarter." Elijah replied.
Davina locked eyes with him as they entered a bit of a staring competition. "You promise you will return?" She asked.
"You have my word." Elijah replied as Davina nodded. "I'll see you soon then." She said, Elijah gave her a slight bow before he was out of the room. He had a brother to 'talk' to.

"Out of all the places you decided to wander off into, you just had to pick the woods, didn't you?" Katherine asked as she swatted away yet another branch from her face.
It had been about an hour since they left the mansion and Katherine had started to complain about 10 minutes into their walk.
"Yes Katherine. And I chose the woods for a reason." Caroline replied as her eyes swept over the dark woods.
"And what is this reason?" Katherine asked, suddenly intrigued as to why the blonde would be walking in the woods during a full moon.
Stopping in her tracks Caroline turned around to look at the brunette. "4 days ago Klaus told me about a pack called the Crescent wolves, I was hoping the woods behind the house would lead me to wherever they are."
Katherine raised one of her eyebrows. "You want to find werewolves? Have you gone mad? Is this some suicidal pregnancy thing that I don't know about?"
Caroline rolled her eyes before she turned around and started to walk again. "When I was attacked by a bunch of warlocks a wolf jumped in front of me, it protected me. I want to know why." She replied.
"A werewolf protected you?" Katherine asked in disbelief. "Yes, it even called for back up." Caroline said back.
"Maybe it could sense Klaus on you. Isn't he the 'Ultimate' alpha?" Caroline stopped in her tracks again to throw a glance over her shoulder to the brunette.
"Yeah, that even sounded stupid in my head." Katherine said as Caroline shook her head a smile appearing on her lips.
The snap of a twig put them both on alert. Katherine unknowingly slowly crept behind the baby vamp.
"What was that?" Katherine whispered, Caroline ignored her as she used her vamp hearing. She could hear footsteps coming closer to them. Great. She thought bitterly as she took a defensive stance in front of Katherine. Ready to charge whomever it was that would show up.
Katherine held her breath as her human ears now picked up the sound of footsteps, a dark figure was making their way over to them.
Caroline squinted her eyes slightly to get a better look at the figure moving closer, it was a female. Long brown hair, hazel green eyes.
Katherine watched as Caroline's defensive stance dropped and she stood up straight. "You have got to be kidding me." She muttered under her breath.
Katherine looked to the blonde and then to the woman who now stood before them.
"Hello to you too, Caroline." The woman said as their hazel green eyes moved over to Katherines brown ones.
"Hayley." Caroline muttered under her breath. Katherine knew this girl, it was that wolf girl who had been hanging around Tyler Lockwood.
"What are you doing here?" Hayley asked her eyes running over the blonde. "What's it to you?" Caroline replied, arching one of her blonde brows a the brunette.
"Well, you are in werewolf territory, and I am currently the one stopping about 10 or so werewolves from attacking you."
"She's looking for a werewolf pack, Crescent wolves." Katherine quickly said. Caroline turned around and sent her a glare that screamed traitor. Katherine gave her a causal shrug and stepped out from behind her.
"What do you want with the Crescent wolves?" Hayley asked as she stepped closer.
Sighing Caroline turned around to face the were-slut as she loved to call her. "I was attacked a few days ago, some werewolves saved me. Klaus told me about a cursed wolf pack that lived out in the woods."
"So you're here with Klaus? What happened with Tyler?" She asked. "Not that it's any of your business but we broke up." Caroline replied. "He's all yours to take." She added which made Hayley smirk.
"I was never into Tyler like that, he is a friend. Anyways, come with me. I'll take you to the pack." Hayley said as turned on her heel and started to walk back the way she had come.
Caroline looked at Katherine for a brief moment before she followed after the werewolf, Katherine sighed, mentally killing both of them in her mind as she rushed to keep up.
"So how long have you been in New Orleans?" Caroline asked, deciding to make some small talk.
"Not long, about 2 weeks or so." Hayley replied shooting a side glance at the blonde.
"Any reason you are hanging with these cursed wolves?" Katherine asked, deciding to join in on the conversation.
Hayley turned her head to look at the other brunette. "I'm their queen." She replied casually, making both Caroline and Katherine stop in their tracks.
The two girls looked at each other before they rushed to keep up with the other brunette. "Wait, you're a werewolf queen? Since when?" Caroline asked.
"Since about 2 weeks ago, when I arrived here." Hayley explained as she moved a branch out of the way.
"Look I don't trust you, no offence. So I'm not going to spill my whole life story to you." Hayley quickly said as Caroline opened her mouth to continue her questioning.
"But you trust her enough to show her to your pack?" Katherine asked. Hayley's lips twitch up slightly into a half smirk.
"She's a baby vampire, I highly doubt she could take out a pack of werewolves on her own, even if they are in human form."
"Fair point." Katherine replied as they moved through some trees and there they were. Men and women surrounding a giant bonfire, eating,drinking and laughing.
"Caroline meet the Crescent wolves." Hayley spoke as she made her way over to the people surrounding the fire. Caroline's eyes swept over the place before she followed the brunette.
"This is a bad idea." Katherine muttered under her breath before she followed after the blonde.

Klaus stood outside her door, staring at the white wood. He wasn't entirely sure why he was hesitating. Perhaps it was cause once he stepped inside everything would become real, they would have to work on whatever it was they were. Was he ready for it?
Letting out a frustrating sigh he put his hand on the handle and pushed it down, opening the door.
He was met with darkness, Caroline was nowhere to be found and the balcony doors were wide open. He quickly made his way into the room, searching for her. He entered her bathroom but she was nowhere to be found.
"REBEKAH!" He roared out, feeling anger and a slight hint of fear pulsate through his entire body. It didn't take long for Rebekah and Stefan to appear in the doorway to Caroline's room.
"Where is she?!" He barked at them. "She's not in the mansion?" Rebekah asked. "If she were I wouldn't be asking you were she was." Klaus snapped at her.
Stefan quickly fetched his phone from his pocket and dialed her number. Rebekah and Klaus stared at him, they could hear the ringing and eventually the voice of her voicemail.
Klaus flashed by them and down the stairs, he quickly put on his jacket and flung open the frontdoor only to be sent crashing back and into the stairs.
Rebekah and Stefan rushed halfway down the stairs as they saw Klaus laying on it, a wooden piece sticking out of his stomach.
"Hello brother." The smooth voice of Elijah rang out. " 'Lijah." Rebekah said a huge smile appearing on her face.
Klaus growled as he stood up, removing the wooden piece from his stomach. Throwing it to the ground he charged for Elijah.
Elijah was prepared for the assault and quickly avoided the attack from Klaus, grabbing his brother by the throat he sent him flying into the livingroom.
Klaus quickly flashed to his feet as Elijah emerged in the opening. They both heard Rebekah and Stefan rush down the rest of the steps.
"Elijah..." Klaus said as Elijah charged for him again, this time Klaus was prepared and he managed to grab ahold of Elijah, sending him crashing onto the wooden coffee table. Elijah quickly grabbed one of the tables leg and flashed for Klaus.
"Enough!" Rebekah shouted at them, stopping their movements. Elijah was holding the wooden leg to Klaus' heart.
Both of them glanced to the opening of the livingroom to see Rebekah standing there with Stefan by her side.
"I know you want to hurt Nik, Elijah. Believe me, nothing would make me happier than to see him in severe pain. But unfortunately we need him. Caroline is missing." Elijah let go of Klaus and the wooden leg fell to the floor.
"When was the last time you saw her?" He asked, concern laced in his voice. Rebekah looked down along with Stefan, Elijah raised his eyebrow at them before he turned to Klaus. Him too not looking Elijah in the eyes.
"Am I to understand that neither of you have spoken nor seen her during the last couple of days?" He asked.
No one answered him. "I'm amazed you even figured out she was missing." He spoke his eyes moving from his siblings to the younger Salvatore.
"Aren't you supposed to be her friend?" He asked, his eyes focusing onto Stefan. Stefan couldn't even look into his eyes, he was beyond ashamed of himself. He was there for Caroline, and ever since she had told him she wanted to try with Klaus he had knowingly avoided her.
Even though he had said he would be okay with the two of them. "And what about you brother. I thought this girl meant something to you."
Klaus eyes snapped up to Elijahs. "Tread carefully, Elijah." He threatened, making Elijah chuckle.
"Yes I can see how much you... care for her." he finished, turning away from his brother he quickly glanced between his sister and Stefan. Shaking his head at them he flashed away.
"What now?" Rebekah asked. "Now we find Caroline." Klaus said before he marched past them and out the mansion.

Caroline and Katherine had followed Hayley through almost the whole camp, until they came to a small wooden house. Hayley opened the door and stepped inside, Caroline and Katherine not far behind her.
Well inside they were met with a group of men. "Jackson this is Caroline and..." Hayley's voice drifted off as she eyed Katherine. "Katherine." Katherine said as she eyed the group.
The man, Jackson eyed the two newcomers. Which gave Caroline time to take him in, he was tall and muscular. He had long curly brown hair, reaching his jaw. A short brown beard and brown colored eyes.
"You brought a vampire to our camp?" A blonde man said, Caroline's eyes moved from Jackson to the man whom had spoken.
"She's an..Acquaintance." Hayley said to the blonde man, whom snorted at her answer. "She's the enemy." He spoke sending a glare her way.
"Enough." Jackson said silencing them both. "What brings you here?" He asked, his eyes locking with Caroline's blue ones.
"A few days ago I was attacked by a group of warlocks, a werewolf saved me. Protected me. I just want answers, as to why this wolf protected me." Caroline explained.
"What did the wolf look like?" He asked.
"White and brown." Caroline replied she saw Jackson shoot a look towards the blonde man whom looked back at him.
"What?" She asked, her eyes moving between the two of them. "We're not the pack you're looking for. Your looking for the North East Atlantic Pack, they arrived here about a week ago."
"The North East Atlantic Pack?" Caroline asked. "Their leader, Cary, is the wolf you are describing and looking for." Jackson explained.
"Well, now that you know that, why don't you two leave?" The blonde man said sending them a fake smile.
"Oliver!" Hayley snapped at him, sending him a glare. Jackson sighed as he motioned for Oliver to leave.
Oliver rolled his eyes as he turned around and left the little wooden house, he shot Caroline another glare before he slammed the door shut.
"You'll have to excuse him, he isn't as well mannered as the rest of us." Jackson said sending Caroline and Katherine a smile.
"Feel free to stay, however if I were you I would be out of here before dawn." He added as he stood up.
"Why dawn?" Katherine asked as she eyed him. Jackson looked at her, slight grin still on his face. "That's when we turn back to wolves." He replied before he walked out of the house.
Caroline and Katherine looked at eachother before they turned to Hayley. "Well, you've gotten your answer. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go and prepare myself for my shift." She said before she too left the house.
"Well isn't this...charming." Katherine spoke as she looked around the little wooden house.
"Klaus didn't know about this other pack. And he knows everything." Caroline said as she started to pace the floor.
"So he missed something." Katherine replied turning to look out the window. Caroline stopped her pacing as she looked to the brunette.
"Because Klaus is known to miss things." She replied, her tone dripping with sarcasm. Katherine rolled her eyes turning back to face her.
"So a werewolf pack has arrived, I don't see the big deal."
"A werewolf pack just happens to arrive as I become pregnant and is being held hostage in New Orleans by a coven of evil witches?"
"Okay, fine. It's strange." Katherine agreed. "So what now? Are you going to continue hiking through the woods until we find this Cary guy?" She asked.
"No, I'm too tired for that. But I will find him, and his pack." Caroline replied with a determined tone as she sat down on one of the wooden chairs. Katherine joined her, feeling pure bliss as she got to rest her feet.
"So how long are you planning on staying here? And can you find your way back to the mansion?" Katherine asked.
"I don't know how long I plan on staying, and probably not." Katherine let out a groan.
"Perfect." She muttered under her breath, as Caroline sent the doppelgänger a glare.
.

Davina had been able to do a locater spell and Elijah found himself vamp speeding through the woods. Why on earth was she on werewolf territory? He asked himself. Had the werewolves kidnapped her? Were they planning something against Niklaus?
He slowed down as he picked up the sound of people laughing, drinking and singing. He slowly walked down the tree covered hill before he stood upon a giant bonfire with people around it.
He stepped closer before he cleared his throat, gaining the attention of the people sitting around it. He saw the fear in their eyes, they knew who he was. Splendid. He thought as he moved closer.
"I'm looking for someone, blonde woman, blue eyes. Has a tendency of getting herself into trouble." He spoke as his eyes moved over the countless people.
A man stepped forward, brown eyes, brown curly hair. "Is she pregnant and happens to be a vampire?" The man asked, Elijah gave him a slight nod.
"Follow me." He said and motioned for Elijah to follow him, Elijah fixed his suit before he walked after the man.
"I'm Jackson, Alpha." Jackson said as he introduced himself. "Elijah, Original vampire." Elijah replied as Jackson's lips twitch up into a slight smirk.
"The woman you are looking for, Caroline. Is in there with someone called Katherine." Jackson said as he pointed to the wooden house.
Elijah felt his whole body freeze, Katerina was here? What was she doing with Caroline?
"Thank you." Elijah said before he made his way over, he walked up the steps to the house and slowly opened the door.
.
.
Caroline and Katherine's head snapped to the door as it opened, in the opening Elijah stood.
"Elijah?!" Caroline said as she took him in, his suit was wrinkled and it was the same suit he had worn when he had brought her back from the witches.
Katherine froze, her mind going blank but her heart pounded hard inside her chest. Elijah's eyes moved over her for a brief moment before they went back to Caroline.
"Are you alright?" He asked and Caroline nodded. "Care to explain to me why you are on werewolf territory and not in the safe comfort of our home?" He continued as he stepped inside, closing the door behind him.
"Your brother is behaving like a complete ass and a child at that, and Rebekah isn't speaking to me either and Stefan is ignoring me. So I decided to go on a adventure." Caroline explained.
"I'd like to apologize for my siblings behavior-" He started but Caroline held up her hand to stop him.
"Don't you dare apologize for their behavior Elijah. You've been daggered and sent to the enemy, you had no part in this. So don't you dare take blame for them." Caroline said in a slightly angry tone.
Elijah got a slight crooked grin to his face as he nodded at the blonde. "Well now that I have returned, how about I escort the two of you back to the mansion. I'm sure Niklaus is going mad not knowing where you are." He spoke.
"So you mean they noticed I was missing, and it only took them about an hour and a half to realize it. I hate to say it but I am slightly impressed." Caroline said as she stood up.
"Did you bring a car? I don't think Katherine can walk anymore." Caroline asked as her eyes shifted from Elijah's to Katherines.
"Unfortunately I did not, I can call Niklaus or Rebekah. Have them pick us up." Caroline nodded and she watched as Elijah fished his phone up from his suit pocket.
"Rebekah I need you to come and get me, Miss Forbes and Katerina. We're at the bayou."
"On my way." Caroline heard Rebekah reply before she hung up, Elijah put his phone back in his pocket and pulled up a chair and sat himself down.
"Now how about the two of you catch me up on what's been going on here." He said his gaze shifting between the two women in front of him.
Caroline sat herself down again, crossing one of her legs over the other. "Well, it's quite the story." She said.
"We've got time." Elijah replied as Caroline let him in on all the chaos that had been going down while he was daggered.
.
.
The car ride had been filled with apologize from Stefan and Rebekah, Caroline was a bit surprised that Rebekah was apologizing but accepted it nonetheless.
They arrived back at the mansion and everyone got out of the car, Caroline was the first one through the frontdoor. Her little adventure had made her tired, the whole pregnancy thing was taking it's toll on her.
She eyed the broken stairs, turning around slightly with an arched eyebrow. "Elijah and Nik had a...talk." Rebekah explained, Caroline shook her head before she made her way up the stairs.
She pushed the door to her bedroom open and let out a small scream as her eyes landed on Klaus, sitting on her bed.
Their eyes locked and she could see the anger in them, the hurt and the small hint of fear.
"Where were you?" He asked, watching her close the door behind herself. "I took a trip through the woods, met up with a pack of wolves." Caroline replied as she shrugged out of her jacket.
"We had an agreement, Caroline." He spoke his eyes never leaving her as she walked around her room, getting ready for bed.
"Yeah, well, when you act like a complete asshole I'm not going to listen to you." She replied as she pulled out a tank and some sleeping shorts.
"You could of been killed, you could of killed our child. Don't you even care? How can you be so reckless?" He hissed standing up, getting angry.
Caroline whirled around, fury burning in her eyes. "I would never put our child at risk, why do you think I went out there on a full moon?" She spat at him.
Klaus bit the inside of his cheeks, he didn't want to lash out at her and say things he knew he would regret.
"So don't you dare stand there and tell me I'm reckless and don't care for our child. If anyone isn't caring for this child, it's you!" She snapped at him.
"I care for the child." He started as Caroline snorted. "You have one hell of a way to show it." She muttered under her breath.
"I am trying to make this city safe for us, to make it into a home for you, for our son." Klaus said , making Caroline freeze her movements.
"You..How did you know we're having a son?" She asked eyeing him. "Stefan told me, on the night when you were attacked by the warlocks." Klaus replied.
Caroline's lips formed an 'o' as she looked at him. "Was there a reason you haven't told me?" Klaus asked stepping closer to her.
"No." Caroline replied, frozen in place. Klaus was now in front of her, mere inches away from her.
Their eyes locking. "You may think I don't care, Caroline." He started leaning in closer. "But if anything were to happen to you or our child..." His voice trailed off.
"I know." Caroline whispered and Klaus gave her a slight nod. "Klaus." She spoke softly, breaking the trance they seemed to have fallen into.
"Yes, love?" He replied, his voice coming out in a whisper. "Kiss me." She breathed out, Klaus eyes moved between hers before he leaned down and claimed her lips.
Caroline felt the tingle in her lips make it's way through out her body, the shiver moving down her spine and the fireworks going off in her head. She moved her arms up and laced them around his neck, pulling him closer.
Klaus' hands instantly went to her hips, bringing her closer to him. They parted, breathing heavily as they looked into each others eyes. Caroline removed her arms from him and took a step back.
She undid the buttons to the cardigan she was wearing and shrugged it off, throwing it to the side. Her hands went to the hem of her tank ready to take it off but warm hands stopped her.
She looked up at Klaus, confusion on her face. He slowly removed her hands, lifting them up over her head as he grabbed the hem of her tank, pulling it upwards and over her head.
Carolines hands moved to his neck, pulling him down for another kiss as they moved onto her bed.
Klaus sat himself up and removed his Henley, tossing it to the side before he moved back down, hungrily pressing his lips to Carolines. He had denied himself this for too long and it was time to claim what was his.

I tried writing a bit of a longer chapter, so I hope you enjoyed it! I would really like your thoughts on Hayley,Jackson and the Crescent wolves. Should I keep them in the story? Or do you want me to just never ever write about them again? /Scars
