Caroline was finally settling into Lexi's loft. With the help from the boys and her girls, she was able to pack everything up, move it to the new place, and unpack, all in the span of 2 days. She still had the lingering effects and unsettling feeling that moving out of the apartment already wasn't the best choice to make. Klaus' voice still echoed in her mind:
"I swear Caroline, if you leave, there is no turning back. If you leave, we won't have a second chance."He had come the day she was moving her stuff out of the apartment and was not pleased at the sight of an almost empty place.
Klaus wanted to come and apologize for how he acted when Caroline went out with Enzo. He didn't want to seem like the jealous ex-boyfriend, even though that was all that he was feeling. He wanted to be in her good graces in order to wiggle himself inside her heart again. He knew the mistake he had made, he knew he thought very irrationally; he wanted her back.
Klaus saw Stefan carrying a box outside of his apartment door. He stared at him confused as Stefan stopped dead on his tracks, not thinking that he would see him there. No one told Klaus what they were doing to avoid any bad blood and awkwardness.
"Now I know why none of you were answering my texts," He claimed, not too pleased with his friend. "Where is she?"
"She's inside, finishing up," Stefan got close to him, looking him straight in the eyes. "This is for the greater good for the both of you. You both need a fresh start in order to move on and be happy."
"You don't get to say what will make me happy." Klaus sneered through clenched teeth before he brushed him off and walked into his apartment. Klaus saw how much his place changed without Caroline's items around. All the pictures, filled with fun memories, were gone and nowhere to be found.
"Where are they?" He asked her. Caroline turned around, startled at hearing his voice. She did not think she would see him anytime soon, especially not on the day of her moving. She knew this was not going to be pretty, he had his annoyed voice on. 'This was what he wanted, he had told her multiple times that he wanted her out, why does he seem so upset?' She thought.
"What are you doing here?"
"I don't need to explain myself to you," He stated. "Where are they?" He asked once again as he examined the room. Caroline furrowed her eyebrows, trying to figure what he meant.
"Where is what, Klaus?"
"My pictures, Caroline, where are they?" He exclaimed, stating her name as if it was venom to his tongue. He walked throughout the living room, trying to magically find the items that he was looking for. Caroline crossed her arms as she stared at him.
"Those pictures were ours, not just yours. I took them down and put them in a box that is in that corner," She pointed to the corner closest to the front door. "I was going to take the pictures out to donate the frames. They are of no use to you or me, so why have them?" She watched as he walked towards the box.
"Hey Care, do you want," Kat stopped herself as she noticed Klaus. "What are you doing here?"
"This is my home, I should be asking you that question," He replied, not content with the tall brunette. "Now, if you and your sister and whoever is in my room could leave this instant, I would appreciate it."
"We are almost-"
"NOW!" He interrupted, almost seeing full red. He didn't know how to feel, so his default feeling was anger. How could she be doing this? Was she really over all they've been through? Is she ready to move on? Katherine shared a look with Caroline, getting her approval before getting out.
"Okay, you psycho," Kat added. "Hey guys, the devil very politely invited us to fuck off and leave the apartment. Let's go before he sends us to hell." She snickered.
"Nik, what is the matter with you? We are simply helping you out, and you have to go on and act like a complete arse." Kol stated, coming out with a box with Damon and Elena right behind him.
"I will deal with you later, brother."
Kol rolled his eyes, "Oh, I'm so scared. I swear Nik, if you could kill me without going to jail, I would already be six feet under."
"It's never too late." Klaus replied.
"I love you too, big brother!" He yelled before walking out. Now it was only Caroline and Kaus in the living room, standing in an uncomfortable silence before he rummaged inside the box and took out a frame. The picture was of them, Caroline kissing his cheek and him smiling sheepishly to the camera. This was taken right after he had asked her to be his girlfriend.
"I remember how happy you were when I asked you to be mine." He whispered. Caroline sighed, as she shook her head and went to sit down.
"You can't do this Klaus," She pleaded. "Don't do this to me."
"What do you think you are doing to me?" He exasperated, turning to look at her, pain in his eyes. For the first time, since the break up, she can truly see him in pain and for a second, very brief, she felt accomplished. She had been feeling the same way for far too long and what would hurt her the most was that he didn't feel an ounce of it. Now, she knows that he does feel. "I come to my home and see it all rearranged and different. Caroline, what are you doing? Where are you going?"
"You've done much worse to me Klaus. Do you know how much pain I have been through because of you? How many times you made me feel like shit and then for you to switch it up and say, 'Hey, I do want you'?," She used air quotations as she stood up. "You don't get to ask me that. You have no idea what I've been through and how much hell I've had to put up with because I'm living here. This is not okay! I'm not okay…" She whispered, dropping her sight as she felt hot tears flood her eyes. She didn't want to cry in front of him anymore, it was too much.
"I'm sorry, sweetheart. I'm sorry for the pain that I've caused."
"Giving me time," She answered, just barely above a whisper. She dragged her finger under her eye to catch the single tear that was about to be shed. "I need time to heal Klaus. Away from you and your mood swings that just continue to confuse me." She looked at him and noticed that his eyes were watering. He pierced his lips, trying his best to suppress his feelings.
"I swear Caroline, if you leave, there is no turning back. If you leave, we won't have a second chance." He took a step closer to her. "If you stay, we can try again. I'll be better for you. I made a mistake leaving you and now I know I don't want to live my life without you." A tear fell as he got much closer and took a hold of her hands. At that moment, Caroline let herself break. She cried as he embraced her. Klaus kissed the top of her head, keeping her close to him, never wanting to let her go. "I will never let you go, love. I won't, I swear, just stay."
For a brief moment, Caroline let herself think of staying. She thought about putting everything back in its place, going to bed and cuddling up next to the love of her life. She thought about the morning after, making breakfast together and talking about what they will do that day. She thought about all the sex they will have and continue to have. She thought about their future, and what she thought it would be. Then, she came back to reality, and the spell was broken. Her thoughts were flooded with that night he broke things off with her, and it all went downhill. She broke from the hug and shook her head.
"I have to go Klaus. I can't stay, you've hurt me too many times and I don't trust you. I've told this already and you don't seem to understand."
"I can prove it to you, let me show you." He insisted as he got closer to her. He kissed her forehead, resting there for a second. "Every minute of every day, I will show you how much I love you." He added, kissing her nose then her cheek. "Let me show you," He breathed out before capturing her lips. Caroline hadn't noticed how much she had missed his lips. She instantly melted into his arms as she kissed him back.
Caroline snaked her arms around his neck as he placed his arms on her hips. Feeling his hands there instantly heated Caroline up, deepening the kiss. Klaus began to slowly move them towards the couch, as she laid on it and he climbed on top of her, still kissing her all over. He would go from her lips to her neck to her chest and back up to her lips. He was addicted to her scent, he felt intoxicated, like if he was not in control of his actions anymore. All he wanted was to give himself to her and take her all in.
Caroline's hands went under his shirt as she scratched his back, bringing him closer to her. She gasped for air as she felt his hard dick against her. "Have your way with me one last time Nik," She breathed out, her hands going to his belt buckle, already unfastening it. Klaus' hand grabbed hers, stopping her actions as he stared down at her. "What did you say?"
"Come on Nik," She added. "Have your way with me." She pleaded as she attempted to kiss him again. He moved away and sat up.
"Love, I do not want to do this one more time. I want this forever," He stated.
"I understand." She replied, fixing her shirt. She licked her lips as she continued to stare at him.
"Stop." He said, shaking his head. "Don't look at me that way while I'm in this state."
"I'm not doing anything."
"Yes, you are, you little vixen. You're breathtaking, love. Especially when I'm about to ravish you," He shook his head, burrowing his head in his hands "but you had to say that."
"Nik," She started but was interrupted with Klaus' lips on hers.
"Maybe I can change your mind." He added as he continued to kiss her. His hands roamed around her body, pushing her shirt up to reveal her naked chest. Those perky breasts, he dreamed about touching and sucking these perky breasts again. His hand cupped her breast as his fingers lightly pinched her nipples. Caroline moaned at the feeling, arching her back closer to him. He pushed her back down, grabbing her hands and putting them over her head. "You know where I like them." Caroline nodded before he captured her lips again. His hand then went down to her pants, unzipping them and inviting his hand inside to touch her clit. Caroline shivered at his touch, moving her arms just the slightest, receiving a dirty look from Klaus. She instantly put them back to where he had placed them and continued his actions. He began to rub her clit slowly as he kissed her passionately. His tongue invaded her mouth with every breath she took, giving him full access. He smiled as he heard her soft moans, knowing very well that he was touching her in the right place at a slow pace. His actions continued to move faster and faster as he began to feel her shiver and climax. "How did that feel?" Caroline's eyes fluttered close.
"Amazing-"
"Well, I'm not done yet." He started before standing up and picking up Caroline. He moved them in the bedroom as he closed the door, just in case their friends wanted to come back, and then he laid her carefully on the bed. He removed her pants, slowly grazing her thighs, sending heat waves up Caroline.
"What are you doing to me?" She asked, watching him throw her pants on the floor before he began to remove his own clothes.
"I'm going to change your mind" He stated before his mouth found its way to her nipples. He began to suck them as his hand moved to her clit once again. She was sensitive to his touch, especially after cumming already. He stuck one finger inside her, letting her adjust to it before sticking another one. He began to give her other breast attention, licking her nipples as his fingers thrusted inside her. Caroline moaned at every movement, feeling in utter euphoria. It was a while since she had sex, or had a man touch her, since she would touch herself. It just was never enough for her and Klaus knew exactly what she liked.
He took his fingers out, receiving a small frown from Caroline as he began to climb on the bed positioning himself in between her as he kept sucking her nipples. He briefly looked up at her, smiling. "Are you ready?" Caroline just nodded, knowing exactly what he meant. Klaus revealed his shaft as he slowly entered her. Caroline let out a breath of relief, feeling him inside. Klaus kept a slow motion going on as he thrusted in and out of her, still playing with her perfectly round breasts. Caroline arched her legs up to allow him better access to her and Klaus took full advantage of it. She filled her up completely continuing his actions, moving faster by the second. He had forgot about her breasts at this point, now all he wanted to have her be completely his. "Say my name" He moaned.
"Nik"
"Scream my name, love"
"Nik!" She screamed, "faster baby, move faster, I'm close"
"I'm close too" Klaus replied as he moved faster, letting his backboard hit against the wall. They were making so much noise, but they didn't care, all they wanted was to release. Caroline moaned his name loudly and that was his cue to go as fast as he wanted to finish. Klaus soon thereafter came. He stayed inside her for a second, as they both catched their breaths. He kissed her forehead before getting off and laid next to her.
"Stay with me today." He said. Caroline, all rosy cheeks, softly smiled at him and nodded before she let herself fall asleep.
Caroline checked her phone once again, just to see if he had called her or texted, but he didn't. She hadn't talked to him since she left him naked on the bed, dead asleep. She wanted to trust him, she wanted to be with him, but she was too hurt by him. She wanted actions, not just words.
