Thank you so much for the reviews! Haha they made me laugh but I promise I'm not a tease, you guys!

This and the next chapter were supposed to be one but I decided to split it since I was done with this part already :)


Caroline entered Klaus' mansion behind the Original.

She was still smiling a little from Klaus' half-joking, half-frustrated comment that Bonnie could benefit wonders from learning about the cab system.

Knowing she was basically the getaway car, Caroline had driven here in record time which she supposed hadn't made Klaus any happier. Still, she felt good about the fact that her one good deed for the day could be saving her best friend from an awkward post-coital encounter.

Which is exactly what they didn't walk in on.

Bonnie was all giggles and smiles when Caroline and Klaus entered the lounge, backed up against a sofa with Kol's arms on either side of her.

The blonde was too surprised to say anything so she was grateful when Klaus cleared this throat pointedly.

The two brunettes turned to face them, Bonnie with a blush rising to her cheeks.

"Hey, guys."

Caroline smiled awkwardly before gesturing with her head. "Ready to go, Bonnie?"

The witch shot Kol a quick glance before removing herself from between him and the couch.

She joined Caroline as Klaus went to stand next to his brother.

Caroline swirled her car keys around her finger and was about to make her way out when Kol spoke.

"I think you two ladies should stay for drinks," he suggested.

Caroline froze, her eyes flickering from Kol's smug smile directed at Bonnie, to Klaus who looked first at his brother in delighted surprise then at Caroline with glittering eyes.

She shook her head. "Uh, no, we're good, really. We should really get going."

"Come on, one drink," Klaus cajoled, ignoring the daggers she was staring at him. "Unless you have somewhere else to be at eleven o' clock at night."

Caroline turned to her best friend, expecting to see eyes pleading for the blonde to get them out of there, but instead Bonnie looked as eager as the younger Original did.

"Fine," she smiled reluctantly, looking to Klaus. "One drink."
