Just got the idea for the next installment of my one shot series earlier today and thought I'd share. It's a random AU where everything is Klaroline and nothing hurts. Thank you for the reviews, guys! You've awesome!

I'd climb right up to the sky
I'd take down the stars
Just to be in your arms, baby
I'd go and capture the moon
That's what I would do
Just to hear you say that you love me
Just to hear you say that you love me

Mikaelson Mansion – Halloween...

Caroline did some last minute adjustments to her make-up as she looked in the mirror. Tonight, Klaus was throwing a Halloween ball and had suggested that they go as Julius Caesar and Cleopatra. Of course, that was no surprise, seeing as how both were powerful rulers in their time and together, they united Rome and Egypt. Still, Caroline was more than happy to oblige, since she had always wanted to dress up as Cleopatra. When they were still planning their costumes, however, she had tried to suggest to Klaus that he dress as Marc Antony, who had been Cleopatra's lover after Caesar's assassination, but he refused, saying that although Marc Antony had great military prowess, he preferred being Caesar.

As she thought back on that memory, Caroline shook her head. Even though he had given her a hard time, she couldn't make him change his mind. Sighing, she put on her black wig and walked out of the powder room, heading to the grand staircase, slowly descending each stair to avoid tripping on her dress. As she got closer to the bottom flight, she saw Klaus waiting for her, dressed in full Julius Caesar attire, laurel crown and all. Truth be told, he looked like he could've easily had been the Emperor of Rome, even though he had been born after it fell. He smiled at her and when she reached the bottom, he took her hand and kissed her knuckles.

"You look ravishing tonight, Caroline," he said. "I must say, you definitely do Cleopatra justice."

Caroline laughed slightly. "And you definitely do Caesar justice."

Klaus smiled again and then offered her his arm, which she took, and then led her to the ball room, where everyone was dancing and having fun. Caroline smiled as she saw that the party was going so well. She then saw that Kol was acting like an escaped mental patient and looked at Klaus. "Who's Kol supposed to be, J. Randall Murphy from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?"

"No, love," he replied. "He's Caligula. He made J. Randall Murphy look like Elliot Ness."

Caroline nodded, having remembered reading about Caligula's reign when she studied World History in her freshman year. Apparently, the guy was a few eggs short a dozen. Of course, if she had the kind of violent past he had, she'd probably go a bit nuts too.

"Did you want to dance, love?"

Klaus' question brought her out of her reverie and she smiled before saying, "Of course."

They then walked out onto the dance floor and held each other close as they swayed to the music. Just like the other times she had danced with him, Caroline felt the world melt around her and it was just her and Klaus, no outside distractions to get in the way of anything. During their dance, Klaus leaned down and whispered, "How about we ditch this party and take in the view upstairs?"

Caroline looked at him and smiled, whispering back, "Sounds like an idea to me."

Her response earned her a grin from Klaus and after the music stopped, he led her upstairs to his room and after closing the door behind them, he led her out onto the balcony, which overlooked all of Mystic Falls, which was bathed in a sea of orange and black lights in celebration of Halloween. Caroline sighed as she looked out at the view.

"You like it?"

"Are you kidding? I love it," she replied. "I never thought I'd enjoy Halloween as a vampire, but I guess being here with you has given me a reason to enjoy it. I mean, not that I didn't enjoy it as a human, which I did, but I guess what I'm trying to say that it's sort taken on a whole other meaning for me since I crossed over into the world of the undead."

"I couldn't agree more," said Klaus. "All Hallow's Eve, although it has fallen victim to the commercialism of this century, is the one time of year where the world doesn't seem to mind that vampires exist."

Caroline nodded, remembering that Klaus was from an entirely different century and had a different view of things than she did. Of course, he did learn to adapt to the changes over the centuries, even though something would happen that would trigger memories of the long-forgotten past. Finally, she cleared her throat, hoping to change the subject.

"So, why did you suggest that we dress as Caesar and Cleopatra?"

"They shared an epic love," he replied. "Plus, in a way, they're sort of like us. You're the strong, beautiful young girl and I'm the most powerful man on the planet, if not the world."

"Yeah, I guess you're right," said Caroline. "Though, there is one difference. Their epic love was destroyed on the Ides of March, where Caesar's so-called friends betrayed and assassinated him."

"True, but you forget one thing, love," said Klaus. "Unlike Caesar, I can't be killed, so nothing can destroy our epic love." He went back in and returned with a bottle of champagne and two glasses. "I think such a thing calls for a drink."

Caroline laughed and watched as he opened the champagne bottle and poured her a glass before pouring himself one. Then, once the liquid was poured, Klaus raised his glass as he looked into Caroline's blue eyes with his greenish blue ones. "But, first, I shall make a toast. To epic love."

Caroline raised her glass as well. "To epic love."

They then clanked their glasses together and shared a kiss under the stars. This would go down as perhaps the best Halloween in the world for them.

Note: Here you go, my lovelies, another update from yours truly. Hope you enjoy and have a great night. I know it's summer, but I thought, why not do a one shot taking place on Halloween for the hell of it? Anyway, hope you enjoy!
