Disclaimer: If I owned TVD, Caroline would get the hell together with Klaus and Klaus would be the legal owner OF HIS OWN BODY again.

A/N: Okay. This time I actually have an excuse. And a good one, too. So, first of all, I had the next chapter written down on my computer, and not only that, but I also had chapters for the other stories ready. And yes, that sounds nice, but my computer decided to automatically shut down and the files were all deleted. So, after that, I honestly had no inspiration streak as to what I should write, because I already had the chapters ready and knew what was going to happen. So, basically I couldn't really come up with anything new (SPOILER: plus, Klaus died, and that did not help at all). O also went to Oxford and took a Creative Writing course there. I came back a few days ago, and I realized how many mistakes I have actually made in my FF stories. I am now planning on re-editing these stories, which also includes making the chapters longer etc. I have deleted some stories, so I won't have to update all of them together. Thank you for bearing with me!

"Tyler!" Caroline exclaimed. A hundred, no a thousand questions came to her mind, but one was the question that she actually dared to ask "What are you doing here?" Did you create the car crash? She wanted to add, do you hate me like I hate you? What are you going to do to me now? Are you angry at your hybrid master for seducing me?

"I won't let you go that easy, Caroline. Sorry if you expected anything else. But I can't. Let. Go. We are meant to be together. I don't know what I will do to prove it to you, but I will go to any length to do so." He responded almost immediately.

Caroline felt sickened. What kind of deluded view did he have on their relationship? She made it clear to him that it was ended. Gone. Destroyed. And that was his entire fault, not hers (though she did still feel a twinge of guilt when she thought of Klaus' charming face.) and she didn't know how else to make him realise that. Go. To. Hell. Perhaps she should spit those words into his face. Maybe that would make him see sense.

"Tyler. It's ended. Our relationship is shattered. Because of you and only you. So, thanks for stopping by and creating the car crash, but I'll pass. I don't want to be with you. How much more clear can someone make it?" She had gotten over her shock. Caroline Forbes was back. And she was angry.

"Well, like it or not, you'll have to bear with me for now, Caroline. It is not me who doesn't see sense. It's you. Can't you see that we both still love each other? I made a mistake... you made a mistake too, but mistakes happen, Caroline, everyone makes them. Don't let me go. Not now. I'm doing all this for you. Please... I'm nothing without you." His voice had grown soft throughout his speech, but Caroline seemed to be immune to it. She had heard Tyler bring up the same old excuses every time he made just this. A mistake. But Caroline didn't want someone as her boyfriend who kept making mistakes.

"Well, you seemed perfectly complete with Rebekah," she sneered.

She saw anger flash in his eyes as he surveyed her. And that was when it hit her. Tyler was desperate now. Not that he hadn't been before, but now he was really desperate. And when Tyler got desperate, his measures were desperate. He became rough. And when he became rough, he hurt Caroline.

"Ty-Ouch!" she exclaimed, as he clenched her wrist even tighter- so tight she couldn't stop the small yelp from escaping her lips. "Stop! Let go. You're hurting me."

"Not until you hear me out and accept that we are one." Sick. That was it. He was probably sick. Lovesick? Caroline had no idea. But his actions were sickening. And at the moment, so was he. She wanted to get away from him, but she couldn't; he was too strong for her.

"You heard her. Let her go." Klaus. Caroline had never been happier to see him. She smiled, she felt tears of gratitude poor out of her eyes. She wanted to wipe them away, but she couldn't- Tyler's hand was still clamped around her wrists.

"Let her go? You're the reason she hates me! You're the reason she doesn't want to be with me anymore! You're not in a place to make demands, at the moment." Tyler said. His voice sounded dry, empty as he spoke to him- he couldn't feel angry at the hybrid, but he could show him that he didn't like his actions at all.

Klaus rolled his eyes "Sure. Blame it all on me. It probably seems like the best solution, only that Caroline won't buy that one. Am I not right, sweetheart?" He looked at Caroline, who blushed and looked away. "Tyler, actually it wasn't me who forced you to sleep with my sister. And, as you are probably about to claim that Rebekah seduced you, she didn't do anything either. You acted on your own accord. So I can't be blamed. Now let her go. She can choose if she wants to be with you."

"You know that she won't, because she's angry at me at the moment." Tyler caressed Caroline's cheek. She flinched away from him. "Caroline," he whispered "It will be okay." What would be okay? She wanted to screech into his face, would he be okay? It didn't seem like it "Don't be afraid. I mean you no harm."

"If you mean me no harm then let me go." He glared at her and shook his head. Caroline struggled against him and tried to push him away, but he was- once again- too strong.

She looked at Klaus. He nodded. In a flash, he appeared before Tyler and grabbed him by the collar. The latter yelped and found himself being thrown into the air and being catapulted into a tree. Caroline watched as Tyler rubbed his head. That must have hurt...

Klaus smiled at her "You won't even thank me for rescuing you, sweetheart?" He asked her cockily. Caroline rolled her eyes and muttered "Thanks." He seemed satisfied.

"Tyler," he looked at him "I'll deal with you later. I suggest you go home. Attacking me won't have any effect, so don't even consider doing so." Tyler glared at him, but he obeyed and left without another word- not before growling at a terrified Caroline and promising that this wasn't over.

And then Caroline was alone with Klaus. She felt weird. She wanted him to stay, but at the same time she wanted him to leave. After all, he was indeed the one to be blamed because of hers and Tyler's relationship problems. Tyler had a point when he said that.

"What now?" She asked Klaus bluntly.

He smiled "I could ask you the same question. What now?" That caused Caroline to roll her eyes. How was she meant to know what would happen now? On the other hand, he couldn't know either. Well, actually it depended on his actions. But on hers too. Whatever.

"What are you going to do?" She rephrased, looking into his eyes.

He shrugged "Do you want to come to my house?" He asked hopefully.

Caroline gulped. No! Her mind was screaming. But her body didn't obey her mind. Her head slowly nodded, although she was trying to prevent it "Yes." She said. She wished she hadn't.

"That's fantastic, love," Klaus also seemed surprised "Are you sure?" So here he was, giving her a second chance. A chance to say no. But, she had wanted to go to Klaus' house anyway in the first place- it was why all this had happened.

"Yes," Her voice was strong, stronger than she could have hoped for "Sure. Why not? I just hope I don't break down in tears..."

"Even if you do I'll be there for you, love." She stared at him surprised. I'll be there for you. He almost sounded like a friend. A really good friend, who never left her side. Or a lover. But she didn't dare think along those lines.

"Okay," she could only say, sounding a little sheepish. He took her hand, and led her towards the car. Caroline felt that this wasn't the last time he did so.
