Hey guys! I spent the all day yesterday trying to post this chapter, but every time I tried to do it, an error message appeared: "error type 1" Does someone knows what is it? Anyway, I hoped you liked the last chapter!
Caroline's POV:
My first action was to lower the sleeve of my shirt. But the wound wasn't on my skin anymore. "How do you feel?" Klaus asked me. "I feel great, actually." He approached me and held my shoulder, analyzing me. I was about to say that I was good and there was no need to do that when I felt blood rising on my throat again, so I used my vampire speed to go away from him and throw up one more time. "Something is wro…" I was interrupted again when I felt an horrible pain on my chest. I put my hand on it and blood was coming out from an opening hole like if I had been shot. In a flash, Klaus bit his wrist and gave it to me. I started drinking his blood but the pain was too strong and I started screaming. "Let's go" Klaus said holding me. "Where?" "Resolve it".
Klaus took me in a bar. "Seriously? You think that drinking is the solution?" Klaus rolled his eyes. We entered the empty place and a pretty girl with dark hair came to us. "Caroline, this is Sophie Deveraux. She's a witch." Klaus said. "What can I do for you today, 'king'?" she said sarcastically. "Well, I'm afraid something might be happening to my 'queen'". Sophie got as surprised as me with the word Klaus used. I would have been happy if the pain wasn't killing me. Suddenly I remembered. "No, no, no, no, no!" "What's wrong, love?" Klaus asked me, worried. "Since Silas attacked and almost killed my mother, I asked Bonnie to link me to her. That way I would know when something was happening to my mother." Sophie was staring me. "You heard her! Do something!" Klaus yelled. She lifted her hands and started to speak in the same language Bonnie used to when she was doing magic. Klaus sighed, losing patience. Suddenly the pain I was feeling was gone. "I unlinked you both but I'm afraid it's too late to try to protect your mother" Sophie said. "What?" I asked, in disbelief. My cell phone started to ring and I looked the person who was calling me: Elena. "Hello?" I answered it, afraid of what she might tell me. "Caroline! I wouldn't like to say this by phone, but… Your mother is…" I turned it off before she could finish what she was saying. Klaus took my hand, trying to comfort me.
Klaus's POV:
I took a very shocked and horrified Caroline home. She didn't say anything during the way and I had an idea to make her feel better. I would take care of that on the next day. When we arrived home, she threw herself on the couch and stood there for hours looking through the window. Late of the night, I was full seeing her like that and I sat beside her. "Caroline…" I started. "I don't want to talk" she said. "I just wanted to know if... You would like to go to Mystic Falls and say goodbye… I'll take you there." "No" "Don't you want to know at least how did she die?" "Does it matter? She's already gone! And if I go there, the only thing that will happen is my pain increases! I don't want to see her dead!" she yelled. There was nothing in this world that I could say to make her feel better. I, above all people, knew how was the feeling of lose family. I remembered that everything I wanted all the times that I lost someone was to be alone. I got up and was leaving when she said: "How dare you leave me by myself in a moment like this?" she yelled. Before I could do or say anything she started to cry "I hate you! Please, don't leave me" I sat by her side again "I'm here, love" I said, pulling her closer to me and she rested her head on my chest. I pulled a blanket to cover her. I knew vampires didn't feel cold but it would help comfort her. Is it too selfish of me to say that I'd like more people to die to make her be with me in this way more times?
Caroline's POV:
I spent most of the night crying while lying on the couch around Klaus's arms. I fell asleep when the sun was almost rising and when I woke up, Klaus wasn't there anymore. All I wanted was to keep sleeping to forget. Oh my God, oh my God! My mother was dead! I was about to start crying again when I heard the doorbell. I don't know how I got up to open the door, but when I did it, a man with a beautiful horse was staring at me. "Delivery! Please, sign here" I did what he asked and he left, leaving the beautiful horse by the door.
I was brushing the horse in the garden when Klaus arrived. "Someone left a horse here" I said. "I asked to. It's for you" he said. Oh, did he really have done that for me? "Did you like it?" "It's beautiful. Thank you so much" He approached me and held gently my chin. "It's good to see you better. I knew you would like it." He kissed me and then he said "I'll take a shower then we'll go see the city lights, sweetheart" He entered the house. I kept brushing the horse, remembering one day in Mystic Falls where Klaus told me that horses are loyal. On the other hand, I didn't know if I could trust Klaus. He was so unpredictable, in a second he wanted to leave me crying by myself and in another he gives me a horse. I was afraid to trust him. With my mother dead there was no one I trusted anymore, she was the only family I have left. Oh my God, I have no one else! A panic started inside my chest and it was burning me. I never felt so much pain and above all, I never felt so alone. I was writhing inside and I would do anything to end up with that excruciating pain. That's when it happened, even without me wanting it… Before I could notice, all the pain was gone. It was gone along with my humanity.
I hope you're liking the story. The reviews helps me keep writing, please do it!
