Okay, guys, I'm going to update my one shot series. I don't normally update on Sunday, but I got an idea and I couldn't ignore it. Thank you for the reviews! You guys are awesome!

Do you want me
Like I want you?
Or am I standing still
Beneath the darkened sky
Or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still
Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you
Passing me by

Mikaelson Mansion...

Caroline sighed heavily as she pulled her car up to the Mikaelson mansion. She didn't know why she was here, or what made her decide to come here, but she was here anyway, still dressed in the red flapper dress from the 20s Decade Dance. She wanted to go straight home and drown her sorrow in something strong after seeing Alaric's final moments in the cemetery. However, she couldn't go home, not when there was a force that was drawing her here.

Sighing again, she killed the engine and walked toward the front door. She went to knock, but the door opened, which was strange. Was Klaus expecting her to show up, earlier than he had said she would while he was dancing with her only hours before? Deciding that it wasn't important, Caroline walked inside and found it eerily quiet. Did he already leave and she was too late? However, she heard what sounded like an angry voice coming from the parlor and, her curiosity piquing, Caroline followed it. When she reached her destination, she saw Klaus, his back to her and facing a coffin in the middle of the room.

She was about to say something when she heard Klaus yelling, "You will never destroy me!"

"Klaus?"

He turned to see her standing behind him. What was she doing here? Did she come to hurt him more than she already did? "What the hell are you doing here?"

"You know, I asked myself that same question when I pulled into the driveway a few minutes ago," she replied. "I told myself I was stupid for coming here, but then, I felt like something that was drawing me here, like...I don't know, some kind of magic or some shit like that." She sighed. "Well, if this is the reception I'm going to get, then I guess I'd better before I embarrass myself further."

Caroline turned and walked out, heading toward the door. However, Klaus vamp sped after her and shut the door, keeping his eyes on her as he locked it. "And where do you think you're going?"

"Home, where I should've gone in the first place," said Caroline. "Now, if you'll just open the door, I'll..."

"You're not going anywhere," said Klaus. "Not until I tell you that you can leave."

"Klaus, this isn't funny," said Caroline. "Just open the door and let me go. Please, you're scaring me."

"I'm scaring you?" said Klaus. "I just risked everything to save you and your little friends tonight and you're telling me that I'm scaring you? Dear girl, if you knew half the things I've done over the centuries, your hair would be standing on end."

"That was your mother, wasn't it?" said Caroline. "The one you were yelling at when I came in?"

"Yes, it was," said Klaus. "Damn bitch thought that she could get rid of me, but she had another guess coming." He then backed Caroline up against the wall, grabbing her arms. "She may be powerful, but all the power in the world couldn't save her from the fate she suffered at my hands tonight."

Caroline could feel his breath on her as she was being held against the wall. Then, before she could stop herself, she leaned in and kissed him. She didn't know why she was doing it, but it was the only thing she could think to do at the moment. It seemed to work, because Klaus returned her kiss seconds later, moaning against her sweet mouth as their tongues collided. He couldn't tell if she was kissing him just to kiss him or she meant it. However, he didn't give a shit. The only thing he cared about was the kiss that Caroline was giving him.

Several minutes passed before they pulled away, blue eyes meeting greenish blue, and for a moment, there was a silence between them, neither of them moving or speaking. The only sound between them was their collective breaths.

"Leave."

His words brought Caroline out of her reverie. "What?"

"Leave," he repeated. "Leave before we do something we'll both regret." He stepped back and released her from his grip. "Did you not hear me? I said you could leave."

"Maybe I don't want to," said Caroline. "Maybe I want to stay. You said that you're leaving town tomorrow, so maybe I can make your last night in town worth remembering."

Klaus never got to reply, because Caroline wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him roughly. After a moment of hesitation, Klaus returned her kiss and vamp sped them upstairs to his room.

Several Hours Later...

Caroline panted as she and Klaus held each other under the sheets of his bed. She couldn't believe that she had done what she did, but she actually slept with Klaus. And the best part was that she enjoyed it, even though there was a part of her that was scolding her for it. Tyler had just gotten back into town and she had betrayed him.

"You're awfully quiet, love. What's on your mind?"

Caroline looked at him. "Just the fact that I never thought I'd stoop this low. I feel...dirty."

Klaus smiled. "But, you enjoyed yourself, right?"

Caroline nodded slowly. "Yes, but..."

"Then, you have nothing to worry about," said Klaus. "You were and are fantastic, Caroline. Don't ever feel that you're not, because you are."

Caroline forced a smile and kissed him, deciding it was better not to speak at that moment. After all, actions spoke louder than words ever could.

Note: Enjoy, my lovelies!
