CHAPTER 33

"I wouldn't have it any other way" said Klaus before pressing his lips on hers. It was the best kiss of Caroline's life, it made her feel loved, valued. She felt a passion she had never felt before. Klaus, after a thousand years finally experienced something he had never felt before, they only stopped when the waiters entered with the food causing Klaus to growl and mutter, "may be I should make them my dinner", causing Caroline to laugh.

"This is not funny love" growled Klaus as the waiters apologised for the interruption and quickly placed the dishes and served them, while Caroline continued laughing.

As soon as they left, Caroline pulled Klaus by his head and kissed him.

After a few minutes, she pulled away, breathing heavily she said, as Klaus once tried to pull her into another kiss, "This was wow! As much as I'm loving this, you know my love for food triumphs" said Caroline cheekily.

"I'm sure I can change that" said Klaus.

"I think not" replied Caroline coyly.

"OH MY GOD! " exclaimed Caroline.

Worried Klaus jumped and started looking around for threats and said, " what is it love?"

"I totally forgot to tell you about Kol's birthday celebrations" said Caroline with wide eyes.

Sighing, Klaus said, "love, you had me really worried for a moment, and me being worried is not good for others health."

"Well, this is serious, it's Kol's first Birthday with us, anyways it's a celebration and it has to be perfect. Bella and I have already told Rebekah and Ivan, Bella will tell Elijah, and that just leaves you. So, get him a gift. Well, nothing would beat the gift that Bella and I are planning to give.. Anyway, you keep him away from our place as we'll be decorating it, after cutting cake we'll head to Vegas and then to Miami during the day, and then we'll be back and spend the day together or whatever as I leave the next day for two months for the Miss America tour."

"Come again, sweetheart. What is this plan of yours of leaving for two months?" asked Klaus.

"What? I'm Miss America, I have monthly tours but mine have been planned differently to allow me to manage work and college. I leave for two months, come back for a week when you all will be in Mystic Falls, I'll write my finals, then join you all in Mystic Falls to help break the curse, then I'll be on my way back to complete the tour, and then I'll see you in LA and you guys have to come as my reign as Miss America comes to an end there when I crown the new Miss America. I told everyone all this already, why are you so shocked?" asked Caroline.

"You most certainly didn't mention this to me" said Klaus, annoyed and a little scared. Sensing the same, Caroline got up and made way to Klaus and sat on his lap, a little shocked, yet, Klaus wrapped his arms around her and breathed in her scent of vanilla and strawberries and calmed down a little, "Talk me to Nik" said Caroline.

Klaus just breathed in and tightened his arms around Caroline.

"Nik, I know what's going inside that head of yours, but you need to say it out loud" said Caroline.

Just like a little boy, Klaus muttered in o voice, "I just got you. I am not ready to let go you right now, not ever."

Hugging him back Caroline said, "Nik before kissing you I said that I want an eternity with you, yes we'll take everything slowly and give time to everything, but baby I'm not going anywhere. I want this, us, you and I. And more importantly, if you think that after this kiss I'm going anywhere, you've lost your mind, you've spoiled for anybody and everybody."

Relaxing slightly, Klaus looked at Caroline and said,"Good", causing Caroline to chuckle and she further added, "Moreover we can always skype or talk on the phone and FaceTime. Also, I'll give you my schedule, you can visit me anytime, if you would like to", unsurely.

"Caroline, I told you, I don't want anybody else, don't be so unsure, I would love to spend every moment with you." Said Klaus.

"Then shut up, kiss me so that I can go back to my meal" said Caroline, "-" but Klaus cut off her by smashing his lips on hers, and after a long, passionate kiss as he moved to her neck, she pushed him away and went back to her seat, laughing as Klaus growled.

"You're going to have to make it up to me love" said Klaus.

"What" asked Caroline, innocently and as Klaus raised his eyebrows she added, "how about we skip dessert, and go hunt and feed from the vein? You know my type, the criminals, and we hunt them your style, scaring them etc?"

"Now you're talking love. But why don't you feed and compel from others?" Asked Klaus.

Tensing, Caroline replied, "I'll tell you, Someday, for sure."

Klaus didn't push her and said, "Very well then love, shall we go have dessert?"

"Yup" exclaimed Caroline.

"But before we go" Klaus pulled Caroline for another kiss.

"Okay, ask one of your minions to take my car back home and one dent or scratch Nik, I'll knock your head off" said Caroline.

"Ouch love! Is this how you to talk to your new boyfriend?" said Klaus.

"So is that what we are? Boyfriend and Girlfriend asked Caroline.

"That's the term used these days" said Klaus.

"Well then, my boyfriend won't care about the way I talk to him, so if he may just call one of his minions to transport my car, I have a proposition for him" said Caroline.

"Which is?" Asked Klaus.

"First one to reach that criminal type area, gets to choose the meal. 1-2-3 go" said Caroline and whooshed.

"That's unfair love" said Klaus and followed her simultaneously placing the call.
