AN: What is this? Another update? Oh my goodness! Haha, but in all seriousness I wanted to update again because I start school next week and I don't know if I'll have a lot of time to work on the stories. I hope you all enjoy this chapter!

~O~

Caroline had spent the past 10 minutes at the bar, drinking and chatting with Klaus as he served drinks for the other club goers. He was charming, and fun to talk to. His accent was also a plus, not to mention she had a thing for guys with accents. He had just finished telling her a story about a club goer who had had far too many drinks, when she heard Katherine's laugh. She turned her head and saw Katherine and Kol approaching them, one of Kol's arms around her waist.

"So I see you two are having a good time," Klaus commented, quirking an eyebrow at his younger brother

"Surprisingly, yes. Your brother is quite the dancer," Katherine laughed.

"You're shocked?! Sweetheart, I'm hurt," Kol commented, placing a hand over his heart.

"Oh, get over yourself Kol. Nobody likes an arrogant bastard," Klaus said with a smirk. Katherine and Caroline giggled as they saw Kol shoot a glare at his brother.

"Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna steal my friend back and keep dancing," Katherine said, wrapping an arm around Caroline's arm and pulling her off the barstool. Caroline gave Klaus an apologetic smile, which he answered back with a shrug and a smile as he watched the blonde walk away with her friend.

"So brother, how are things with you and your little blonde?" Kol asked.

The older Mikaelson turned to his brother, a scowl on his face. "I was about to make my move when you and your dance partner interrupted. So, not as planned."

Kol shrugged. "The lady wanted to come back to her friend. Who was I to refuse?"

"Piss off," Klaus muttered.

~O~

Katherine and Caroline joined Elena and Bonnie once more. The other two girls had also spent the time dancing and flirting with some of the guys at the club.

"So, Kat, you spotted your next victim?" Elena commented as the girls started dancing to the song that had just started playing.

"Ugh, "victim"," Katherine muttered with a roll of her eyes, "such a negative connotation. I prefer "disposable guy".

"Or fuck buddy," Bonnie commented. Katherine tutted and shook her finger at her green-eyed friend.

"That would imply that I sleep with a guy more than once, and I don't. They keep my bed warm for the night and then I never see them again."

"I don't know how you do it," Elena sighed, "being with a guy is supposed to be about more than just sex. It's about forming a relationship."

Katherine rolled her eyes once more and scoffed.

"Please! And how well has that worked out for you? Men are lust driven animals, and nothing makes them happier than a one night stand. Trust me, Elena. If you keep thinking like that you're going to wind up old and gray and by yourself," Katherine replied.

"But there's no respect," Elena countered.

"Sweetie, I own one of the top PR firms in Manhattan, I'm one of the most in demand publicists, and I'm hot. I don't need one man's respect to make me feel better about myself. Besides, I've done more by the age of 27 than most of the men I've slept with have," the brunette replied.

A small smile formed on Elena's lips and she laughed softly. "I guess you're right."

"Oh trust me, I know I am. And speaking of guys to sleep with," Katherine began, turning to Caroline, "Klaus is SMOKING hot."

"He is," Caroline answered, "and he's also great to talk to and he's charming."

"Then please tell me you are going to sleep with him!" Katherine all but screamed. Caroline's eyebrows furrowed and she shook her head.

"No. That's not happening."

"And why not? Nothing helps better to get over a guy, especially a douchebag like Tyler, than to sleep with a hot British bartender," Katherine stated.

"It won't make me feel any better," Caroline countered.

"Trust me, if he knows what he's doing which I'm sure he does, then he will definitely make you feel better," Katherine smirked, quirking an eyebrow at her friend.

Caroline shook her head and scoffed. "You just don't get it do you? I'm heartbroken Kat. You saw me this afternoon. Sleeping with some random guy won't help me get over what happened." Tears were brimming in the blonde's light blue eyes as she looked on angrily at her best friend.

Katherine sighed dejectedly and pressed her lips together. "You're right. I'm sorry."

Caroline sighed and shook her head softly. "It's fine. Now, can we please just stop talking about guys? I wanna dance until my feet are bleeding and there are no other gals I'd rather do that with than my 3 best friends."

~O~

The girls all laughed and nodded in agreement as they rid their mind of thoughts of the opposite sex and enjoyed the music.

Four hours later, the girls were spent. They had danced to so many songs they barely remembered when they would change. A new song had started, but the DJ turned it down a little. He grabbed the mic and tapped it twice.

"This thing on?" he spoke. The club goers responded with boos, most of them exclaiming that they wanted the music on again.

"I'm sorry, but I'm gonna need everyone to calm down. The club is closing in a bit anyways, but we have a special guest." The screaming and yells of the crowd turned into soft murmurs at the mention of a special guest.

"As most of you know, I'm DJ King. And to those of you who know me personally, Marcel." The dark skinned man spoke into the mike, flashing a Colgate smile to the crowd.

"Now the person I want to introduce is the man who made this all possible. One of my dear friends and the man who calls the shots: Elijah Mikaelson!" Though the multi-colored lights continued moving around the club, a single white one shone on the man who walked towards Marcel. He was classically handsome with his perfectly coiffed brown hair and dark brown eyes. He was tall, with broad shoulders that were accented by the grey suit he wore. A smile formed on his lips as he greeted his friend, and then took a hold of the mike.

"Good evening, everybody. Have you all been enjoying yourselves?" he questioned. The crowd went wild in approval. He chuckled and motioned for them to quiet down.

"Well, I am so glad you all had such a great time tonight. I'm not the kind of man who ventures into an idea like this. At least not without a little shove or help from family and friends. There are several people I would like to thank for helping make this happen. My siblings, for starters. Klaus, my younger and more adventurous brother who helped me form this club into what it is right now. He's also the man serving your drinks, so give him a round of applause". Another white light shone appeared, and shone down on Klaus who gave the crowd a small smile and a wave.

"My baby sister, Rebekah, who supported me throughout this whole ordeal and introduced me to the man who would become my business partner." The while light that had shone down on Klaus, shifted to Rebekah, who had a drink in her hand and held Stefan's hand with the other. She raised her glass and smiled.

"And my youngest brother, Kol, who helped get the liquor here," Elijah chuckled, as the light shifted to Kol. The younger Mikaelson smirked and winked at the crowd and raised his glass to them as well.

"Last but not least, my business partner...Mr. Damon Salvatore!" He exclaimed, clapping as another light appeared and followed the dark haired man who made his way to the mike. His dark hair was pushed back, a contrast to his clear light blue eyes. He walked with an air of confidence, looking handsome in a cream colored suit; red checkered dress shirt and grey tie with black lines. He gave Elijah a pat on the back and smiled before turning to the mike with a smirk in place.

"Good evening beautiful people!" the handsome, blue eyed man said into the microphone, eliciting screams from the female club goers. He chuckled before speaking into the mike once more. "As my business partner and dear friend Elijah told you, I am glad that you have enjoyed tonight because there will be many more nights like these to come! Tonight's grand opening is only the beginning! With that, I want to wish you all a good night and I sincerely hope to see you soon!" Both men gave small waves to the crowd, before the light that shone down on them dimmed.

The music still played softly in the club, as the chatter of the club-goers continued. Some started to leave, while others were still talking and grabbing their belongings and finishing their drinks.

"Elijah Mikaelson is officially the hottest man I have ever laid my eyes on," Katherine commented, her eyes set on the man she spoke off, who had made his way off the stage and was chatting with Damon.

"Oh come on Kat, there's definitely been hotter guys than him," Bonnie stated.

"Perhaps…but there's just something about him," the brunette answered, as she stared at him, "I'm going to go over there and talk to him." Her friend's expressions showed their dislike for her choice and Katherine rolled her eyes.

"Oh get over yourselves. Besides, Elena, you're coming with me. I saw the way your eyes were glued to that Damon guy," Katherine teased, as she wrapped a delicate hand around Elena's arm. The other brunette shook her head vigorously and tried to escape her friend's grasp.

"A lot of other girls were like that too. And besides, I don't need to go and talk to him. I'm fine where I am."

Katherine scoffed. "Yeah, but you're hot and they're not! Don't be such a scaredy cat, come on!" She pulled at her friends arm, dragging her along to chat with the handsome men they had their eyes on.

Bonnie laughed and crossed her arms over her chest as she watched the two walk away. She turned to Caroline who had an amused expression on her face.

"Last minute drinks at the bar?" the blonde questioned, raising a blonde eyebrow.

"I'd love to," Bonnie laughed, as she followed her friend to the bar. They took their seats at the bar stool, and Caroline lightly tapped the counter with her knuckles. Klaus, who had been putting away some of the bottles, turned his head to see who caused the noise.

"So you're back," he smirked. Caroline let out a small smile and nodded. "We'd like some last minute drinks, if you could do us that favor."

Klaus placed his hands together, palm to palm, and brought them up to his lips. His face took on a pensive manner, before he burst into a smile.

"I think I might be able to do that. What would you two ladies like?" he asked.

"Sex on the beach for both of us," Caroline answered. Klaus nodded and turned back to make the drinks.

"You know…that could be easily arranged for both of you lovely ladies," came an all too familiar, and now beginning to get slightly irritating, voice. Kol appeared behind the girls as he drapped his arms over their shoulders.

"Ugh, as if!" Caroline scoffed in disgust, as she pushed his arm away.

"I'll have to pass," Bonnie commented, pushing away Kol's arm as well. He took a seat next to Bonnie and raised his hands up in surrender.

"Just trying to be welcoming. And besides, your rejection doesn't hurt me. I have eyes for your friend Katherine," he answered, a grin on his face.

Bonnie scoffed, before laughter elicited from her lips.

"What's so funny, darling?" Kol asked.

"Oh you poor, poor thing!" Bonnie laughed softly, "I don't think Katherine's much of an option for you anymore. She seems to have taken a liking to your brother, Elijah." When Kol furrowed his eyebrows at her statement, she gave him a pitiful gaze before pointing over to the woman in question. Kol turned his head to find out that the dark skinned girl was right. The gorgeous brunette was chatting with his brother, one of her delicate hands on his arm as she leaned towards him.

Kol sighed and looked back at the girls with him. "Damn Elijah and his charm," he muttered.

Bonnie giggled and placed a hand over Kol's, which rested on the counter. "Don't take it too harshly. Katherine is always setting her eyes on a new guy. You're not the first one to have this happen to them."

Kol looked down to where her hand rested on top of his and raised his gaze to hers, quirking an eyebrow at Bonnie. "Care to help me feel better…?"

"Bonnie," she answered his unspoken question. "And no, I think you can do that all on your own."

Kol pouted like a child who had just been told he couldn't get a new toy. "But that's no fun!"

"Sounds like a personal problem," Bonnie laughed, nodding in thanks to Klaus as he set down their drinks. She grabbed the glass and clinked it with Caroline's before taking a sip.

"Come on take a chance-"

"No."

"But-"

"No."

"Bonnie, darling-"

"Kol, for the last time…NO," Bonnie replied exasperatedly. She finished the rest of her drink in one gulp and set the glass down.

"I'm gonna go use the ladies room," she stated, getting up from the bar stool.

"I'll go with you," Caroline began to say, but Kol was quick to cut her off.

"No need, Caroline. I'll walk her there," Kol stated as he got off his stool as well and held out his arm for Bonnie.

The brunette rolled her eyes. "I'm old enough to walk to the bathroom by myself." She began walking away, hoping that Kol would stay behind, but was quick to realize that he hadn't as she heard his footsteps near her and turned her head to see him walking beside her with a shit-eating grin on his face.

Caroline watched as her friend walked away and laughed.

"Kol doesn't give up, does he?" she turned to Klaus, grabbing her glass and taking another sip of the drink.

He shook his head and chuckled. "He is a nuisance of a brother, but if there's one thing that's good about him is his perseverance."

"Though that can be a bit of a nuisance too, don't you think?" the blonde smiled, pointing her thumb to the retreating figure of her friend. Klaus grinned and nodded. He finished putting away the liquor bottles and turned off the lights that illuminated the bar. He walked around the counter and walked over to where Caroline sat.

"So your friends have left you all by your lonesome?" he questioned, as he sat down next to her. Caroline sighed and nodded. "Two of them are off trying to reel in your brother and his friend, and the other one is warding off another one of your siblings." She laughed softly as she turned to Klaus.

" Well then, it's good that you have me to accompany you," he stated. Caroline smiled. "I guess so."

"Since your friends are off doing their own thing, how about we get out of here?" he asked, quirking an eyebrow at her.

"No, I'm fine here," she said, shaking her head.

"Oh come on, sweetheart. Take a chance, besides it's only one night," he said, as reached over and caressed Caroline's arm. His touch sent a shiver down her spine but she slapped his hand away.

"I said, no."

"A little distraction never hurt anybody," Klaus continued, "and you're looking very…distracting in that tiny red dress of yours."

Caroline's eyes widened. The NERVE of this guy! Was he seriously trying to get her to sleep with him?! Anger boiled inside her and she got up from the bar stool.

"You know what does hurt? Getting kicked in the balls with stilettos? Has anyone ever done that to you?" Caroline bit back, crossing her arms over her chest.

Klaus chuckled and shook his head. "Most women are more than eager to accept my invitation."

Caroline scoffed. "You're a heinous pig with no class." She turned around and began walking away from him, but soon felt a rough hand wrap around her arm and felt herself being pulled back, her back pressed against Klaus

"Live a little, Caroline. You know you long to have your perfect feathers ruffled," he whispered huskily into her ear.

Okay, now that was the last straw.

She pulled away from him roughly and turned around, slapping him hard on the cheek.

"You're disgusting," she said angrily, before turning away and walking towards her friends, her heels clicking against the floor of the club.

Klaus held his hand up to his cheek and rubbed it. For a tiny girl, she was strong. This girl was a spitfire, and despite the fact that he only wanted to sleep with her, he found himself intrigued with the blonde.

"See you tomorrow, Caroline."

~O~

Caroline marched over to Katherine and Elena and took a hold of their arms.

"Sorry gentleman, I'll be taking these two!" she exclaimed as she dragged her friends away from the men they'd been talking to.

As she made her way to the entrance, she saw Bonnie emerge from the bathroom. Kol was still following her until Klaus called out his name. He bid the girls goodbye before heading over to his brother. Caroline didn't dare turn to look at him. She motioned for Bonnie to join them as they exited the club. Once outside, they were thankful that several cabs were lined outside, no doubt they were used to the club scene and knew many people would be too intoxicated to drive.

They stepped inside the cab and Bonnie gave him the name of the hotel. Once the cab driver began the driver back to the hotel, the girls all leaned back in their seat.

"Ugh Kol is so annoying!" Bonnie exclaimed, frustrated.

"Klaus is a heinous pig!" Caroline yelled, her expression turning into one of disgust

"He didn't fall for me. Elijah didn't fall for me. The Katherine Pierce charm never fails!" Katherine exclaimed, shaking her head in disbelief.

"Damon wants to meet for lunch tomorrow!" Elena chirped happily, which earned a glare from the three other girls.

She shrugged. "What? You could at LEAST try and be happy for me!"

The other girls didn't answer, but faced forward the rest of the cab ride. Once they arrived at the hotel, they paid the driver and got out of the vehicle. They made their way to the villa, and all sat down on the couch, replaying the events of the night. Finally, Bonnie was the first one to make a move. She reached over to the coffee table and grabbed the phone, dialing the reception desk.

"Hello, yes this is Bonnie Bennett and I'm staying in Villa 2. Can we order 5 bottles of the '95 Dom Perignon?" Wonderful, thank you so much!"

The girls turned to her and gave her a silent 'Thanks'.

"You're welcome."

~O~
