I HAVE TO ADMIT THIS WAS THE CHAPTER THAT MAKE ME THE HAPPIER.
THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT WRITING KLAROLINE SCENES THAT MAKE ME SMILE.
I HOPE YOU LIKE IT!
I DON'T OWN A THING! EXCEPT THE STORY
Five minutes had passed since Rebekah left the room and Klaus still was thinking over her words. He didn't know what to think, how to process what his own sister thought of him. He remembered back to Mystic Falls, the place where everybody hated him and also the place he met his angel. He sat there in the kitchen, wondering what would have happened to him if he had never done what he did. If he hadn't killed Tyler's mother, or if he hadn't wanted the doppelganger. If he had just being the guy Caroline wanted. He chuckled and stand up. Probably wouldn't be in this position now, he thought. He never thought twice about his ways of investigation, or torture. He always thought it was necessary, since Michael got everything that way.
Now he thought about Rebekah's feelings and the things that must have been going through her mind when he changed and when he didn't care about anyone, including her. No, he knew exactly what she thought. He thought back to that last sentence she said before leaving…. "I won't forgive you until you've shown me that you can change. Show me that you have humanity in your life" It shamed him, now that he realized everything he had done, that he didn't know how to be nice. He'd shown love and kindness to Caroline because if felt wrong not to.
But it wouldn't be the same with strangers. It would feel awkward and offbeat. Besides, he now craved this control like an addiction. He loved the power that came when the right people- like Marcel- were frightened by him. But Rebekah was right, and he knew that. He would lose Caroline eventually, either by her fear of him slowly building, or her disgust of him that would inevitably come if he continued being cruel. And that was something he couldn't allow. Wouldn't allow.
Suddenly, he heart the kitchen door open and saw his blond princess standing in the doorway. She embraced him, which instantly brought peace to his mind and heart. He would never let her go. Never.
They broke apart and stared at each other's eyes, lost in thought. He thought about what would had happened if he had never arrived at Mystic Falls and had never met his light. He had been in the dark for way to long, and the thought of him never meeting Caroline brought a pain in his heart that hurt more than anything he ever felt.
He couldn't imagine having a life without his angel. No, he could and it wasn't one he wanted to live. Maybe his sister was right. Maybe living a life with cruelty and forced alliances would lead him to a path of loneliness and darkness. And he didn't want that. He wanted his life filled with light. He wanted a family.
He saw her walk up to where he was seating, her eyes filled with worry. He knew why she was worrying over. He could bet he looked like a kicked puppy. The irony.
"What happened?" she asked so quietly it was almost a whisper.
"What happened is that my sister finally told me all my amazing quilities" he winced at how sad his voice sounded. "Am I that horrible of a person?" He whispered.
She was silent for a whole minute, which was more than enough answer for him.
"I probably am. I have done horrible things. I was the reason for many massacres, deaths, sacrifices. I'm pure evil. I probably deserve my sister's hate" he stared laughing, unamused that even the deaths of his victims, after hundredth of years, make him guilty. He hated guilt. He didn't do guilt.
"I told you once that anyone capable of love was capable of being safe, and I still mean it. Maybe once you where horrible and ruthless, but you can change. You can start by controlling that paranoia you have. I know you can be kind and gentle" she leaned closer, their lips almost touching now "because you've shown me that you can be. You can change" She kissed him softly.
"How can I change to something I don't want to be? I want to have power. I don't want people to see me as weak. But I don't want to lose my family in the process" he whispered against her lips. It was the truest thing he probably said in his existence.
"Family is power, Klaus. Love and Family can give you amazing strength. You can have both. You just have to find a way to not abuse of one or the other. And no one will see you as weak. If you show them your power and make them respect you by you showing them respect. And you will not be alone in this. I will follow you and right your wrongs in all the process. We can just start with the people who are causing us trouble at the moment" her eyes sparkled with mischief and happiness. So many feelings that make him want to kiss her again. Then, he realized who they were talking about.
"The witches" his voice was laced with hate in those two words. Caroline nodded.
"They are the main link in these city. Making them respect you and doing what they asked will put them on our side"
"How do you expect to get rid of him?"
"Let's leave that to me"
I'm probably not going to like this, he thought.
