Anonymous asked: hiiii, I saw this post on insta by blisstvd and now i need a story behind it ya know. I added a lil more to make a storyish: klaroline are besties and are secretly in love with eachother and currently drunk and caroline goes "you know what? being a girl sucks!" and klaus goes "being my girl wouldn't"
It took her a solid ten seconds to process what he said. Feeling sluggish and electrified at once, Caroline looked up at him with her mouth gaping. "Your girl?"
An embarrassed flush reddened his entire face - but maybe that was from the tequila shots they'd taken. "I just meant-" Klaus broke off as though expecting her to interrupt, only to quail when she continued to stare. "Forget it."
"No!" She lurched forward dizzily, and it occurred to her they were probably too tipsy for this conversation. Holding onto his arm, however, like hell was she going to let go of this golden opportunity. "Tell me. Please. I want to know." Caroline only had the slightest idea - and the greatest hope - of what he meant, but Klaus seemed to hear something in her voice that led him to straighten up and swallow down the worst of his drunkenness. Emboldened, she tangled their fingers together as she waited.
His eyes fell to their joined hands, his dimples just peeking out from his cheeks. "This is nice, isn't it? You and me?"
Nodding, she bit her lip to keep from speaking. She needed to hear it from him.
"What if… Could we…?"
"Yes!" Okay, she was bad at staying quiet. Klaus's smile was a bright thing as he laughed, so she figured he didn't mind so much. "I mean, could we what?"
He lifted their hands to his mouth, and he kissed her knuckles with deliberate slowness. "Would you be my girl if I asked?"
Feeling more sober every second, she arched a brow. "You should ask and find out." But she was already leaning into his space, her eyes dropping to his lips that had just been so warm on her skin.
"Would you-" The question was lost to kisses that tasted like tequila and lime, ruined by smiles that left them laughing together on her couch. Movie nights with her bestie certainly wouldn't be the same after this, something she was absolutely looking forward to.
