"Okay, there is a flight to New Orleans leaving in the morning." Stefan said walking back into the living room.
"Great, now we just need a plan." Caroline stood up and faced the group. "I think some of us need to stay here, just in case things get worse."
"Well, if we want Klaus to agree to this, you're going to need to be there." Tyler said to Caroline.
"Fair enough, but I don't think it'd be a good idea for you to go, considering." she responded.
"Fair enough." Tyler agreed.
"Bonnie, you mentioned a witch." Caroline looked to her friend.
"Her name is Davina Claire, she's the regent of New Orleans, and from everything I've heard she's pretty powerful. It wouldn't hurt to have her on our side."
"Then Bonnie is coming with me. She can convince Davinia to help while I talk to Klaus." Caroline looked around the room, deciding who should stay. "Stefan, you need to stay here. If Damon starts to completely lose it you can calm him down. Matt, you're needed here. So I guess that means Enzo is on team New Orleans. Anyone have a problem with that? No? Good. Let's all get some sleep." with a forced smile she bounced up the stairs.
"I guess we have a plan." Enzo said.
"If you let anything happen to either of them, I'll kill you." Stefan threatened and followed after Caroline.
"Hey." Stefan walked into his room, where Caroline had been staying. "I don't know how I feel about you going to see your old fling."
"You have nothing to worry about, besides I think Klaus has long moved on."
"Still, maybe I should come, who knows it could be dangerous."
"Bonnie will be there, and Enzo won't let anything happen to me." she assured.
"Yeah." Stefan rolled his eyes.
"Don't be jealous." she covered his lips with her own. "I love you, Stefan."
He wrapped his arms around her waist. "I love you."
Caroline's face lit up. "You know I don't think I'll ever get tired of hearing you say that."
"Well you could have been hearing it a lot sooner if someone hadn't waited so long." he joked.
"Shut up." she pushed him onto the bed.
"Oh now it's on." he grabbed her wrist, pulling her down next to him. He began tickling her, something he had recently discovered she hated.
"Stefan Salvatore, you stop this right now." she managed to say in between fits of giggles.
"Or what?"
In one swift motion Caroline had overpowered Stefan. She was now sitting on top of him, pinning his hands to the side.
"I'm stronger than you." she whispered in his ear.
Stefan went in for a kiss, but Caroline jumped off the bed, leaving a clear look of disappointment on his face.
"I need a shower." she said heading for the bathroom. "You're free to join me, if you want."
Without hesitation Stefan followed her.
Caroline had gotten the address to the compound where Klaus lived as well as the address to find Davinia. They had agreed that splitting up would be faster, so Bonnie and Enzo were out looking for the witch while Caroline took a taxi to see the original hybrid.
Caroline took a deep breath before yelling out his name, "Klaus?"
"Couldn't stay away?" his cocky voice was coming from behind her.
She turned to see him standing up and a balcony. "Actually, I need your help."
In the blink of an eye Klaus was now standing inches from her. "Let's go inside, we can talk over drinks. Besides, there is someone I want you to meet."
He led Caroline into what she guessed was the living room, there were two couches and a few chairs. Klaus walked over to a playpen that was set up in the middle of the room.
"I'd like you to meet my daughter, Hope."
"Can I hold her?" she asked shyly.
"Of course." Klaus carefully handed his baby to Caroline.
"Hi, Hope." Caroline cooed. The baby reached up and grabbed Caroline's nose, causing everyone to smile.
"Hey, Klaus do we have any… Sorry, I didn't know we had company. I'm Cami." The blonde introduced herself.
"I'm Caroline." she turned to give Klaus a questioning look.
"Camille, would you mind keeping an eye on Hope? Caroline and I have some catching up to do." Klaus asked.
"I'd love too." Cami took the baby from Caroline. "It was nice meeting you."
"She's pretty." Caroline smirked when Cami had left. "Blonde is your type."
"Do you want my help or not love?" asked.
Caroline nodded. "We need you."
"And that's the story." Bonnie sighed as she finished telling Davina about the horrors that have taken over Mystic Falls.
"So, you want me to team up with Klaus and risk my life for a town I've never been to?" the young witch asked.
"Think of more as helping a fellow witch." Bonnie told her.
"I'm just getting tired of being taken advantage of, and no offense but I don't know you."
"I know where you're coming from, trust me, but once these heretics are done with Mystic Falls who knows where they will go next. I don't think anyone is safe. We need to stop them, and I think you and Klaus might be the only two people strong enough to do that." Bonnie begged.
"Okay, I have an idea. If you're up for it, that is."
