Chapter 10

Caroline:

Katherine had dragged me out shopping to stop me talking and worrying about Bonnie. We had been shopping for about two hours and needed to sit down. After we wondered through the streets we found a quiet little coffee shop. It was beautifully decorated inside with paintings and drawings of various beverages on the walls. Katherine had picked a table with two comfy looking club chairs. I went up to the counter and ordered a Latte and Cappuccino and paid the girl at the register. She handed me the coffees and I took them to the table and gave Katherine the Cappuccino and set my Latte down opposite her.

"I know this isn't cheering you up really." Katherine explained.
"No Kat this is really nice thank you for distracting me. But I don't know why she didn't come back to the room last night or where she slept."
"She probably stayed in Rebekah's dorm. But Care it's gonna be okay but we need to relax okay she's fine." She drank some of her coffee. "So…what's happening with Klaus." She said wiggling her eyebrows.
"Eww. Kat nothing!"
"Don't give me that crap Care I know you like him."
"Erm…I don't know I really don't."

Klaus:
I stormed back to my room very angry about how Elijah had brought up my Father and how he had treated me like a child. I chucked to myself on my bed and looked up at the ceiling. I listened to Elijah telling Kol off about having the Bennett witch in his room last night. I waited until they had finished arguing and then went downstairs to the art rooms and picked up a canvas and started painting. I painted for ages it was my way of releasing anger and pain.

I had finished my painting and now I was at the vending machine picking out The B Positive blood type. I laughed at myself because I had picked Caroline's favourite type. "You really have no friends do you Klaus."
"Ah Stefan, What can I do for you. Fancy a drink mate."
"No thank you mate." Stefan mocked.
"Still on your crappy animal diet Stefan? Why don't you try something a little more substantial? C'mon mate you know you want to." I said wafting the blood bag underneath his nose.

"Nice try Klaus but I have been off human blood for so long it doesn't bother me."
"Tell yourself whatever you need to, to help you sleep at night." I advised him walking off "To answer your question about friends I do have friends."
"Really like who?"
"I don't have to waste my time telling you who my friends are."
"That's basically Klaus speak for saying that I was right and you don't have friends."
"I would hold your tongue if I was you or I'll make you bite it off. Now that wouldn't be to hard will it Stefan?"

Caroline:

I had dropped my shopping bags on the floor of our dorm because I saw a note on my bed I picked it up it was from Klaus.

"Caroline, I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am for what happened between you and Bonnie Bennett it wasn't you fault and you know that. It was my entire fault and I'm sorry. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
Klaus.
Ps. I hope you liked the drawing I did of you."

I turned the note over and gasped at the beautiful drawing. It was a sketch of me laughing. I don't know who or what I was laughing at but he caught me in the moment and it was perfect.
"Care what is that?"
"It was a note from Klaus..."
"Let me see!" Katherine shouted excitedly.
"Why are you so excited you hate Klaus." I laughed. She grabbed it and read the note.
"Although I hate Klaus's guts he is a good drawer."
"I know."
"Write one back!" She screamed.

"Why?"
"Just do it! I'm going to see Elijah in a minute so he can give it to Klaus." I picked up a piece of paper and wrote Klaus a letter back.
I folded the letter up and gave it to Katherine.

"Enjoy yourself Katherine." I said with a wink.
"We will and I'll see Elijah giving this to Klaus."

Klaus

"Brother!" Elijah announced walking into my room.
"Yes Elijah walk right in without knocking of course that's perfectly fine."
"I have a very important letter to give you Niklaus. According to Katerina you have to open it as soon as I leave."
"Well what has Katerina got to do with this letter then brother?"
"It was her idea."
"Well leave me brother so I can read this."
"As you wish brother." He put the letter on my bed and I picked it up trying to recognise the script on the paper. I unfolded the paper and read the beautiful handwriting.

"Klaus, I knew it wasn't your fault but Bonnie is still not talking to me and I really miss her. I don't know what to do. I do forgive you Klaus. I know that somewhere deep down there is good in you.
Caroline."

I smiled at the letter re-reading it over again. "She sees the good in me that's a first." I said out loud.
