The first-cut is the deepest
Wait, I'm hurt that bloody Sila stabbed me with the white oak stake, and suffice to say that's why I called you.
Klaus said the last part almost timidly, betraying his belief that Caroline did care for him.
Caroline, however, felt that Klaus was being overconfident, shouting, you ran Tyler out of town, killed his mother and you think I am the one to call for help!
But Klaus was right on the money, she did care whether he was hurt. Why else did Caroline come to the rescue? Everyone else seemed to ignore Klaus in times of trouble, she just couldn't do it.
But she would be damned if she gave up her act, she needed to deflect and she was good at it. So much so that if there had been a competition at it, she would win first prize. Deflection is after all built on insecurity, not only was she bothered that friends would think her no longer good enough to be part of the gang or useful if she sided with Klaus as it would bring end to her days as the bubbly blonde distraction, she thought Klaus's "obsession" with her was to be short-lived.
So Caroline continues to list Klaus's misdeeds, Not to mention all the dead bodies that you have left lying in your wake since you were turned, humans, people, mother, fathers, daughters, people you have forgotten and you think I can forget them and just help you, you're a monster!
Caroline in classic miss mystic falls righteous mode used her words like weapons to her him, when really it hurt her more – deep down she was frustrated and irritated by Klaus and perpetuated this the more she ranted, she truly wanted him to change.
Yet, in response to all this Klaus becomes cold, despondent almost indifferent, if it hadn't been for the slight watery glean in his eyes showing his true hurt, Caroline would not have bothered to get through.
Klaus proving he is in fact the best manipulator, and alpha in the whole supernatural world, with an intense stare and an almost growl he shouts ENOUGH! Caroline is stopped. Klaus had trapped his pray with one sudden outburst and then mustering his true devil persona, he becomes composed and chillingly states
If you die, you, Tyler and all your little friends die along with me!
Caroline walks purposely towards Klaus almost robotic and betraying her state of unrest at becoming physical closer to Klaus who was dangerous in more ways than one. Klaus then cranes his neck up to meet Caroline's eyes; he doesn't like to be weak. Little did he know she had butterflies?
Caroline dips her head slightly, her face uneasy at the sight of blood – something she should have got over as vampire but no it was still a grim sight. Right Caroline, lets pull are selves together before Klaus sees I am anxious can't have him being smug, can we!
So Caroline responds coldly, what do you want me to do?
Klaus responded nonchalantly a alike they were acquaintances, it's quite simple cut the stake out of me
Caroline grabs the plies gingerly, they weigh her down – not physically like they would do if she was human but mentally- this truly was a gruesome thing to do, rip into someone's back – Klaus or not.
Caroline huffs meeting his eyes, and says almost ins defeated fashion – aware of another live and die experience she and Klaus were to be connected by- well we can't do it here can we ? talking to herself more than anything…erm what about me having you on the piano?
Klaus smirks, maybe if I was in better shape love… that little treat could be arranged
I'm not even dignifying that with answer Klaus, c'mon ill help you up
and I thought chivalry was dead but here you are my saviour, Klaus was dripping with sarcasm, the mood had definitely shifted to their normal banter.
The struggle was over but let's be honest it couldn't have lasted they were meant to be!
Now turn round, Caroline ordered Klaus, as a wife orders a husband.
Klaus panted out in pain
oh it's a shame love, I'm missing your beautiful face and yours mine
aaaaaaaaaaa
klaus then felt a greater shot of pain- Caroline turned away for a second.
okay, Klaus we can do this (meeting his face after prancing round the other side of the piano like a cat) you stay still and be less "charming" (Caroline of course said this with dramatic air quotes and tilted hers slightly) and I'll have these shards out of your back and then I can go back to prom planning, okay?
I'm glad my life is a priority love, can't keep you away from the prom for too long someone might have ordered the wrong flowers, God this kills
Whatever whiny, here I go
Caroline's long delicate fingers touched Klaus muscular back, bare skin to bare skin - Caroline blushed, this was intimate. Quickly she took the pliers and went in to his back,
Klaus lets out a scream
Oh shit, I can't do this - not to him
