A/N: I seem to be starting all my authors notes with saying "I'm sorry," but I really am. My laptop just died and went to heaven a few weeks ago, and I've been struggling with trying to find time to write now that I've started college. But, I have managed to somehow write this chapter, and even though its taken a good few weeks (with the help of study periods and late night iPod Touch sessions) it's finished and I am glad I can finally get this out to you, (via my Nans computer!)

Also just to add, someone said in their review about how I made out that Caroline now doesn't remember Elena and Bonnie. That's definitely not the case, she does. If you think about it, she came home from hospital, with a man she doesn't remember, and all that would of been playing on her mind. Elena and Bonnie weren't the only ones who were at the little 'Welcome Home' gathering, loads of people were there and it would have just been overwhelming and I, as an author, just made it out to be that the whole thing was too much for her, and she didn't really take them both in at the time. I am however very sorry to make you confused, hope that clears it up?

Anyway, sorry about that, and on with the story. Enjoy!

"We're lost."

"Don't start, love."

"We've broken down, and we're lost."

"Caroline I really not in the mo-"

"Great idea to take the short cut Mr I-Know-Everything. Now no one knows we're here, and we're in the middle of no where. Any minute now an axe murderer is going to jump out and kill us both."

"Are you seriously doing this right now?"

"Yes, I seriously am."

Klaus groaned out before banging his head on the steering wheel.

"We're not lost, I know exactly where we are." He said.

"Oh then please be my guest and show me on the map." Caroline replied as she forced the map in to his face. He gently snatched it from her hand, giving her a look before he turned and looked at the scrunched up map. Truthfully, he had no idea where they were, but he knew if he told her that she wouldn't stop freaking out. Klaus scanned the map a few times before pointing to a random place and showing his girlfriend.

"We are there." He lied.

Caroline looked him in the eye. His eye twitched, and in that moment he knew he'd been caught out. He could never lie to her.

"Liar," Caroline crossed her arms and raised her perfectly shaped eyebrow. "And a bad one too."

"Fine! I haven't got a clue where we are, and it looks like we aren't going anywhere anyway since this shitty car has broken down too."

"Hey! Do not blame my baby! She's getting old, it's not her fault!" Caroline pointed her finger at his face. "If you're going to blame anyone, blame yourself jackass."

"Me?" Klaus scoffed, "Please, you're the one who insisted on going for a stupid drive! Your idea got us in to this mess, sweetheart."

Caroline gasped.

"Stupid drive? You didn't have to say yes Klaus!" Caroline shouted.

"Well I wasn't going to say no was I, because if I did you would have only gone off on one about how we never do stuff as a couple anymore!"

"That's because we don't! We don't go to the cinema or out for nice meals or even go on walks! No, we just sit in and watch your boring films everyday!"

Klaus laughed and shook his head."Aha you're a funny one Caroline, please do continue because it seems to me that you've got a lot on your chest that you want to get off. So please do share."

Caroline glared at him and scoffed.

"You're an asshole." Caroline quietly turned around and opened the car door, she quickly jumped out before slamming that car door shut and walking in to the woods.

"Yeah go walking in to the woods, because murderers and rapists never hide in there do they?" Klaus said to himself before he got out of the car and followed her. "You know you're being really immature, love."

"Stop calling me that, we're in an argument." She half shouted without turning around to look at him. "You only get to call me that when you're being nice."

Klaus shook his head and smiled.

"Stop calling you what?" He asked, with a smirk plastered on his face.

"You know what." She stopped walking and swiftly turned around to look at him. She placed her hands on her hips and looked him in the eye.

"Oh don't be angry love, we had a little spat, I'm over it already." Klaus crossed his arms and slowly took a few steps towards her, instantly making her take a few steps back.

"Aww, well I'm not." Caroline smirked and crossed her arms. She took another step back before her back hit a giant tree, and before she could move Klaus was standing right in front of her trapping her in.

"Well what can I do to make you forgive me," Klaus moved in close and whispered in her ear, "love."

Caroline bit her lip and moved her head so her lips were inches away from her boyfriends. She looked in to his blue eyes and slowly ran her hands over his leather jacket before they came to rest on his muscular shoulders.

"Well yo-"

Caroline was cut off as Klaus crashed his lips on to hers. A loud moan escaped her and before she knew it, Klaus had quickly ran his hands down the small of her back, over the curve of her ass and grabbed the back of her thighs. He lifted her with ease and she automatically wrapped her jean clad legs around him, looking him in her tight grip.

Klaus hungrily kissed down her neck, he placed wet kisses over her pulse point before he gently bit down and then soothed the skin with his skilled tongue. A low moan emitted from the back of her throat and she threw her head back to give him more access.

"I sorry love," He mumbled as he worked his way back up to her mouth before he captured her lips in another kiss. "Lets not fight."

Caroline could only 'hmm' as she ran her fingers through his short, soft curls. She slightly tugged on them, making Klaus groan. He reached for her legs and untangled them from his waist. Her feet dropped to floor as Klaus reached for the button on her jeans and quickly unfastened it and dragged the zip down. He impatiently pushed them down along with her underwear, as Caroline began to do the same with his. He then picked her back up and pushed her back in to the hard tree. She instinctively wrapped her pale legs around him again before he pushed in to her which both made them moan out. He slowly filled her, then pulled back out and thrust his hips again and again.

Klaus grabbed her hands from his shoulders and pinned them above her head and entwined their fingers together against the rough oak of the tree. She tightened her legs around his waist and dug her heel of her foot in to his toned ass. Klaus kissed her, as she cried out in pleasure. Caroline tilted her head back and Klaus caught her chin with his teeth and gently bit down. He kissed his way down her neck once more, biting and sucking at her skin and marking her on her neck. He brought his head back up and looked her in the eye.

"I love you."

He quickly kissed her one last time before they both came together. Caroline sunk her teeth in to his shoulder and squeezed her eyes shut. A few moments later, Klaus pulled back and looked at her. He smiled at her and kissed her long and hard on her soft pink lips.

"I love you too." Caroline replied as she pulled away.

Slowly, Caroline unwrapped her legs from around him and he pulled out of her, both making them moan. They quietly got dressed and as Caroline began to walk away Klaus grabbed her arm and pulled her back in again. He smiled down at her, took her hand and they walked back to the car.

"Well, that was fun. Now fix the car, love." Caroline said as she opened the car door, blew him a kiss and slipped inside.

Unbelievable.

Klaus sat on the sofa drinking his tea as he thought back to that memory. They argued none stop, but that would never change a thing between them. They were both crazy about each other.

He silently stood up and made his way in to the kitchen. He placed the cup in to the dish washer and then looked out the window. He saw the grey stray cat that Caroline used to always feed sitting on the wall starring back at him. He smiled at it, then turned around and walked in to his bedroom.

Caroline screamed as she saw him, making him jump out of his skin. She was dressed in matching blue underwear and bra, and she scrambled for a t-shirt that was hanging in the wardrobe. She half covered herself with it.

"Erm, hello? Trying to get changed here!"

Klaus turned his back and looked at the painting on the wall, trying to keep his grin at bay.

"Sorry, it's a habit." He mumbled. He quickly peaked around and let out a small laugh before walking in to the bathroom, he saw a small smile on her face before he shut the door.

A while later, Caroline walked in to the kitchen wearing shorts and a baggy t-shirt. She had her blonde curly hair up in a high messy ponytail. To Klaus, she looked absolutely stunning.

"Hi," she said, giving him a little wave, before bringing her hands together in front of her and playing with her fingers.

"Hey," Klaus replied, sipping on some orange juice. He coughed, then spoke again. "I'm sorry about what happen.. in there.. erm... earlier.." He pointed to up at the ceiling. "And about last night. It was stupid of me to invite everyone round. I really am sorry Caroline."

"Oh no it's okay, lets just forget about it. Water under the bridge and that. And about earlier, it's okay, you're used to the old me.. we were- are married and that's how married couples act. I get it." She smiled a little, then looked down at the floor.

"Nice top." He commented.

"It's the only piece of my clothing that I feel comfortable in.." She replied. Klaus grinned at her. "What?"

"That's actually my top."

"Oh! I am so sorry, let me go and tak-"

"It's fine Caroline. Whats mine is yours."

"Right." She breathed out. "So, whats my normal routine?"

"Well, you'd wake up, get dressed, come down and make some coffee and have something to eat before driving down to your studio."

Caroline frowned at him.

"Studio?"

"You do photography."

"What? But what about my fashion career?" She asked.

"You gave it up. One day you just called me up and said you hated it, then you told me that you were going to start learning how to be a photographer and from that day, you never stopped. You love it."

"I do?"

"Yeah, you really do." I nodded. "Do you want me to show you your studio?"

Klaus watched Caroline quietly as she stared at the ground. She had a crease like in the middle of her eyebrows, and Klaus instantly knew she was thinking hard about the answer and all the information he had just given her. Suddenly her head shot up and she looked him in the eye and smiled lightly.

"Yeah, please."
