Author's Note: Hello! Thank you to everyone who read and reviewed, even if you didn't enjoy it, I assumed a lot of you, including myself felt as if klaus was cheating, but there was a reason why they slept together. Don't worry besides the fact that there was smut, there is a reason behind it. So i hope everyone keeps reading and i'm sorry if u felt as if klaus cheated, which he did, sorta, but it was part of the story. Please don't hate me! Everything will be righted in due time. A Guest reviewer said that what happeend last chapter represented that caroline was exchangeable and I can understand that, it took me awhile to get up the guts to write the scene honestly because i felt very much like that along with cheating and everything, so i can understand what you mean. But there is a reason why they slept together besides for lust etc (since another Guest reviewer didnt understand besides for lust why they slept together) , but it'll be worked out i promise and i hope u guys keep reading and letting me know what u think! I appreciate the reviews even if they are critical. It makes me write better, honestly. So in this chapter you guys need to pay extra special care to the dates, because i did change some things. I hope u guys like it and let me know what u think! please review!

Chapter 13 Traveling Time

Mystic Falls 2012

"Caroline!" Liz Forbes screamed while knocking on her daughter's bedroom door.

"Wake up!" she added knocking harder.

Inside the room a groggy Caroline finally awoke and looked around her room in astonishment. At first she thought that the last few weeks of her life had been a dream, but then everything that she had learned from the future came rushing back and she got up quickly taking in the room she had called her own since she was little. She opened the door of her bedroom and came face to face with her mother who she gave a big hug to.

Liz, surprised, hugged her back.

"What's wrong sweetie?" Liz asked curiously as she saw the happiness on her vampire daughter's face.

Caroline smiled at her, "I'm just happy to see you." she said kissing her lightly on the cheek.

Liz rolled her eyes, "well you can't get out of school if that's what you want. I know about that math test." Liz warned.

Caroline frowned, "what's the date?" she asked confused.

"October 11." Liz said narrowing her eyes at her daughter.

Caroline's eyes widened in shock. That was the day she had arrived in the future. That was three weeks ago. What was going on?

"October 11, 2012?" Caroline repeated her mind swirling.

She was in the past, again, where she belonged, but she went back to the day she had gone time traveling. It was like her trip had never happened. But it had to her, she had been with Klaus and she loved it. Was this a side effect of the spell the witches put on them, and what was going on with the Klaus from this time? What was going to happen with them? She felt her head starting to hurt and she turned to go back in her room. Her mother yelling at her to get ready and that she was going to work. All Caroline wanted to do was crawl back into her bed. She was so confused and couldn't even fathom what was really going on.

She didn't know what to do, or who to ask either since she didn't trust the Klaus in this time and her friends would think she was crazy. She assumed that maybe she should just keep her little time traveling adventure to herself and not mention it to anyone else. Maybe it was just for her knowledge only, like a lesson to not judge everyone so quickly and that's why she was sent back to the day she had time-traveled. To make everything right, or something. Or she could forget about the whole thing and go back to how things were, but she knew after last night with Klaus that was impossible. Their night together was incredible and she wouldn't take it back for anything.

Tiredly, she got ready and then left to go to school. She was still unclear about what was really going on, but she figured that at least at school everything was the same. Or so she hoped.

The school day followed through without too much drama, she didn't see her friends and went to cheer practice after school with Rebekah. It was odd knowing how she and Rebekah got along the last few weeks in the future and then being thrusted back into her normal life where her and Rebekah were enemies. The entire practice Rebekah goaded her on and Caroline had to bite her tongue as to not reply to her snotty comments. After practice she went home feeling tired and forlorn for the life she had been living the last few weeks. She missed the amazing mansion, the well stocked library, the art, the crazy closet of clothes, but most of all she missed Klaus. She missed his scent, his clothing next to hers, the way he spoke, the way he was with her. Everything about him she missed and the ache in her heart told her really how much.

When she arrived home from practice she was putting her things in her room when she saw a white box upon her bed with a card on the front of it. Curiously she opened the envelope to see an invitation to a ball that night, she frowned confused and anxious about the short notice, but after reading through the invitation and then seeing the 'Save me a dance' beautifully written note on the back along with Klaus's name she couldn't help but feel goose bumps prickle as the excitement of seeing Klaus increased. She couldn't help herself, she had already gone almost a day without seeing him and now he was inviting her to a ball. She realized with a slight amount of dread that she wouldn't be seeing him as much now that she lived back in her time.

She placed the card carefully on her desk and reminded herself that this wasn't the Klaus she had become attached to. This wasn't the man she had slept with the night before, her stomach twisted at that thought and she tried to ignore it. She knew that things would be different now, but just how different?

She looked down at the white box and then tentatively opened it and gasped when she saw the exact same blue dress she had seen hanging in the future closet. She smiled looking down at it and gently touched it thinking that despite being back where she belonged with all the drama she felt hope that maybe everything that had happened in the future still could even though it was in an alternative dimension. Looking at the dress made her feel a renewed sense of hope knowing that despite all the darkness that surrounded her with everything going on in her life along with the troublesome issue of being thrusted back in time with out an explanation there was still a chance her and Klaus could be together. The dress and the invitation was a sure sign of that.

As she got ready for the ball Caroline received several texts from Elena telling her that she was going to the Mikaelson Ball and—OMiGod Rebekah asked Matt—Caroline found that slightly funny since she and Stefan would wind up together. But the thought of Elena also made her think about what she did to her mother and she felt some sort of animosity towards her childhood friend. She tried not to think about it as she took a shower and got ready for the ball.

At a half hour after the ball started, she wanted to be fashionably late she drove over to the mansion. She let the valet park the car and then she walked into the Ball feeling nervous and shy at seeing Klaus. She came into the mansion and smiled slightly feeling since the first time she had come back to her time like she was home, she saw the beautiful art and the familiar décor that she had become familiar with over the time of her stay in New Orleans.

She searched the crowd for a familiar face of any kind until her eyes stopped on a set of blue ones staring directly at her. He was standing beside a brunette woman who was talking to him animatedly, but his eyes were trained on her. She smiled slightly at him and then scolded herself remembering that he wasn't the man from last night who she had been with. This was normal Klaus who had killed Jenna and had come to terrorize Mystic Falls. She reminded herself that she had a boyfriend in this time as well and that she didn't even know this man like his future self. A small voice in her head told her to give him a chance and get to know him, but she tried to ignore it to no avail.

"Good evening." He said charmingly coming up to her.

She opened her mouth to respond and then closed it not sure what to say that wouldn't sound completely dumb.

"I need a drink." She said sashaying around him to go to the bar.

He smirked at her and then followed after her. They waited in line without speaking and Caroline couldn't help but fidget while standing there, not sure how to act around him.

"How are you this evening?" he asked his tone very gentlemanly.

Caroline turned to glance at him feeling her cheeks heat up from his eyes and she couldn't help but have flashbacks of last night and the way he felt inside her. She looked away feeling embarrassed.

"It's going fine." she said playing with her fingers and becoming thankful when the line moved.

"And yours?" she asked trying to be polite.

He shrugged, "now that you're here, it's going wonderfully." He said looking at her intensely.

She tried to smile at him, but half way through doing so she had to remind herself that he was their enemy and he had a lot to endure before becoming the man she knew. But then she remembered what future Klaus said and she decided—without thinking it through—that she'd give him a chance. Afterall it was only fair.

"Well you did invite me." She said following through with her smile.

He smiled at her and they moved forward in line until they reached the bar. Klaus ordered two champagnes for them and then pulled her into a corner to talk some more. Before they could converse however, Elijah made an announcement to go into the Ballroom so they could have the first customary dance.

"Would you like to dance?" Klaus asked after downing his champagne in one sip. He seemed a little nervous and Caroline couldn't help but smile at him.

"Of course." She said smiling and then taking his offered hand.

He led her onto the dance floor as the music began Caroline couldn't help the butterflies that swirled around her tummy or the feeling of electric heat that swam up her arm at his touch. They danced to the song together looking into each other's eyes and Caroline saw the same emotions in his eyes as she'd seen in the future Klaus's.

Maybe there was hope for them yet.

New Orleans 2112

Caroline gasped as she felt a set of hands wrap around her neck and push her into the bed. Her eyes flew open in alarm and they fell upon the man who was above her choking the life out of her. She tried to make a sound wanting to make him stop hurting her, but she couldn't speak because of his hands around her throat. She gasped and choked and clawed at his hands, but it was no use Klaus had always been stronger than she was. She felt blackness overtake her senses and then she passed out.

She awoke hours later chained in the basement as someone threw a bucket of water onto her drenching her to the bone. She vaguely noticed that she was in her own basement dressed in the same clothes she had worn to bed last night in the past, but what she didn't understand was why she was chained in her own basement. She realized with slowness that she was back in her right time and instead of feeling joyous about it she was now being held captive in her own basement and feeling confused beyond belief. What the fuck.

"What the fuck." She stated out loud as she blinked the water out of her eyes and focused on the man above her.

He was staring down at her with a cold calculating look and she couldn't figure out why he would do this to her. Maybe he thought that she had something to do with her own disappearance or maybe he didn't know why she disappeared and he thought she was an imposter.

"Klaus unchain me now." She snapped angry that her husband would chain her to a wall and soak her in water without any explanation. If this was some sort of new sex game she didn't like it.

"How do you know my name?" he snarled bending down to her level to look her square in the face.

"Why were you in my bed?" he asked when she stared at him in bewilderment.

"Seriously?" she cried looking at him as if he had grown another head. What was wrong with him?

"Why were you in my bed?" he repeated grabbing her face so he could look at her. She realized with dread when their eyes connected that he was about to compel her. She closed her eyes in fear of the questions that he would ask and she felt scared for the first time in a long time around him.

"Answer me." He snapped tightening his grip on her chin.

"It's me, Klaus! Caroline!" she shouted in his face opening her eyes against her better judgment.

He stared at her for a long moment before letting her face go. "How did you get into my house?" he asked his eyes piercing into her.

She looked into his eyes and was astonished to see no trace of her Klaus.

"What's wrong with you?" she whispered as he stood up.

He scowled, "answer my questions now." He yelled standing above her.

"Klaus! It's Caroline! What is wrong with you?" she shouted again feeling fear rise into her chest. She felt it's coldness swirl around the inside of her body and she tried to control it not wanting to let it take over and cloud her mind, but she couldn't help it as her lover stood above her on the verge of murder.

"I don't know a Caroline." He said after a long moment.

She felt the fear take over and then tears begin to brim in her eyes. She shifted around trying to get out of the chains.

"I'm your wife." She cried as he continued to stare down at her.

He cocked his head at her and then let out a bone-chilling laugh. "I don't have a wife. I think I'd remember." He said snarkily.

She stared at him in astonishment and she tried to force herself to think before speaking. Obviously she was in another alternative universe or this was the backlash of the spell. She wasn't sure why she had suddenly been sent back, but she knew she had awoken in her own bed beside her own Klaus, but it seemed he didn't remember her. What the hell was going on?

"Yes you do, it's me and we love each other." She exclaimed without fully thinking it through. She knew Klaus inside and out, he had to believe her.

He continued to stare at her and then let out a small chuckle. "I don't love. It's a weakness, now tell me who you really are or I'll find another way to extract the information." He said nodding over at the wall of torture devices she knew hung there.

She shivered at the thought of them being used on her and she struggled to think of a way out of this.

"Ask your siblings! They know me!" she said suddenly the idea popping into her head. If it was a consequence of the spell the witches put on them then maybe it hadn't affected his siblings.

He frowned, "my siblings aren't here, I haven't seen them in centuries." He said vaguely looking into the darkness of the basement. She followed his gaze and gasped at the coffins that lay there no doubt housing his family.

"What have you done?" she whispered staring at the coffins and then looking back at him.

He smirked at her, the darkest one she'd ever seen, it held such malice behind the lips and she couldn't help but shrink back because of it. Maybe she was in another alternative universe one where she didn't exist. Or maybe something else was going on, something she had no idea of. She wasn't sure. She felt confused and frightened.

She went to bed in the past and woke up back in her time, maybe, but Klaus didn't remember her and his siblings were daggered. Was this because of the witches? What had happened to make this occur? She knew that she hadn't done any spells to try and reverse what had happened, she was afraid of something like this occurring, maybe her past self had done something in the future. She felt bewildered and afraid and all she wanted to do was curl up and cry until everything was alright. But she was strong and that wasn't happening. Or so she told herself.

"Let me go, Klaus. I'm not a threat." She said after a long silence.

He laughed again darkly, "I'll be the judge of that." He said before turning around and leaving the cellar.

She watched him go with a sense of dread not knowing what was going to happen to her. Half of her wanted him to turn around and walk back and try and work it out and the other half wanted him to leave so she could try and think about what was going on. She knew one thing though, she hated time traveling and witches.
