RETURN TO ME ( SECOND PART)

She woke up to find herself in a hospital bed and could hear a familiar male and an unfamiliar female voice coming from the other side of the curtain.

"Is she okay?"

"Yes. There is absolutely nothing to worry about Mr Mikealson actually I'm gonna tell you there is good news."

"Good news?"

"Yes your wife is pregnant."

"Oh. She is not my wife Doctor."

"I'm sorry I thought she was. But she is fine. I believe she fainted due to what we call "syncope" it's extremely rare in the first trimester but may happen due to a variety of reasons like low blood sugar levels which happened in Caroline's case."

"So she just needs to go nuts with sugar twenty four seven?"

The doctor gave out a smile and said, "Yes you can put it like that but make sure she eats healthy. For now I am prescribing a few vitamins that she needs to take regularly and she'll need follow up antenatal visits to see if she and the baby are healthy.

"So I can take her home?"

"Yes she is fit to be discharged."

She was mildly aware of the conversation going around. As soon as she had opened her eyes and could sense things around her she remembered everything. She remembered Klaus's voice, that baritone timbre, the joy she could feel in his voice at hearing her's.

"Love. You have no idea how glad I am to hear your voice and what I wouldn't give to see you."

"I miss you too. How are you?"

"How do you think?"

"I.. I need to tell you something."

"What? Is everything okay?"

"Yeah. Yes everything is fine. It's just I.. I love you so much."

"I love you too my love."

"Klaus I wanted to tell you that I'm p.."

And "BOOOM"..

She re-lived the most terrifying and scary moment of her life. Flashes of that one tormenting memory that came to pass mere minutes ago rocked her entire being.

A choked cry escaped her lips and her body trembled letting her know what fear really was and how it could paralyse one mentally and physically. Tears falling like raindrops but she wasn't aware because she kept hearing his voice on a loop as it then faded into a loud bang. Wanting to save him , reach him she cried out his name , "Klaus!" a desperate aching murmur which gained volume as she felt herself losing him.

"Klaus!"

Kol rushed to her side. She was shaking like a leaf in a raging storm. He called out for the doctor and held her calling out her name.

"Caroline." "Caroline !"

::::::::::::;:;;::;::

"Are you okay?" Kol asked as he gave her a glass of water.

After a few minutes as if on her own she had snapped out of it and had started demanding and pleading that he go check up on Klaus any way possible.

She had told him about the phone call and why he should gather about Klaus's whereabouts any way possible. Earlier she had shown up at his place asking him to give her Klaus's contact number because she needed to tell him something important as the number Klaus had given her couldn't be reached.

He had found a contact number for her because he had seen the panic and urgency in her disposition and had thought it might be something related to her and Klaus's relationship, also he had learned through years of personal experience that one could simply not understand women. Mankind could travel to the moon but he could not comprehend woman kind nor he should presume to.

Hence he had fished for a phone number for her without questions. She was talking to Klaus in his living room and had excused himself to give her some privacy.

But a few moments later he had found her unconscious on the floor and had immediately taken her to the hospital.

Now she was sitting on the living room sofa staring off in space.

He offered her a glass of water, "Are you okay?" For a second she stared at him as if he was speaking some alien language.

Then gingerly took the glass from his hands. Taking a sip she the glass on the table in front of her. Getting up she said, "Kol please you have to find out if he is okay."

He put a hand on her shaking ones and replied ,"I called his superiors. They are saying they will inform as soon as they have any news."

She just nodded still frightened. He sat her down and sitting in front of her he said , "Don't worry he will be fine."

"How can you be sure?"

"Because he still has to know about his baby." he tried alleviating her fears.

"If there is a God he can't be so cruel right?" her voice a murmur part dejection, part hope.

"Yes. Now all you have to do is take care of yourself and the baby until Nik comes back and marries you."

"How?" he said gesturing towards the ring on her finger.

"That's our Mom's ring. I'm glad for you two but a little pissed off at my brother that he didn't tell me that he planned to propose or that you were going to be my future sister-in-law. You just let him come back I'm gonna beat his pretty arse for this."

She gave a small smile but the weight on her chest didn't seem to ease at all.

:::::::::::::::;:::;:;;;;;;;;

The news came two days later and Kol felt a part of him dying. They had said that it was a blast that took out the base where Nik was stationed. His brother , his best friend his mate was no more. Tears flowed and he didn't wipe them away. He had never thought he would lose Nik like this. He knew he should be proud that he died in the name of duty but he was resentful and bitter , pride had no place in his heart right now.

He threw the phone at the wall and sat down beside his bed and grieved for his brother.

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Caroline had, had the worst morning vomiting her guts out, yeah morning sickness was no fun. She still hadn't told her mother about her pregnancy knowing well that her mother would never support her as Caroline's life was practically a mirror image of her mother's minusing a few details.

So when her mother had asked her if she was okay? She had lied and told her she'd caught a bug.

The bell rang and she got up from her bed and feeling a little dizzy she stopped once. Then went to answer the door.

Kol Mikealson was standing on the other side of the screen door. His expression sombre he began ,"Caroline. I ...uh.."

"What? Is everything okay?"

"No." he whispered his eyes welling up , "Klaus..","Klaus what? Tell me. Tell me dammit!." she yelled grabbing his collar her heart sinking at the prospect of something happening to the love of her life , the father of her child.

"They found a body and it had his dog tag. He …" Kol's voice broke.

"No!" she whispered and shook her head furiously then pushing him she added ,"No. He can't die! He can't. Kol he …." tears flowed and she wasn't aware of them. She moved back and collided with the screen door. She looked around as if things had stopped making sense. The faint click of the minute hand of the wall clock felt suddenly like a loud thrum in her head she looked back at Kol who hugged her. She twisted in his arms and screamed, "No! No! No!."

Kol held her as she sobbed deep violent heart wrenching screams.

As Caroline was weeping at the loss her mother came out and then she held her as she cried her eyes out.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

That night she slept in his henley , a grey one she had once borrowed it from him. The tears didn't stop nor did the ache that became deeper and more painful with each second.

She hugged her abdomen which had begun to show a very slight bump and murmured, "Your daddy is gone. He is gone….. he is gone." and wept silently.

::::::;:::::::::::::::::::::::::::;;;;

( A few weeks later)

She was holding a few bags and standing in front of the house Klaus had rented so they could spend time together before his departure.

A few weeks after Klaus … had passed away. Kol had received his artefacts and a letter that had explained that he had actually bought the house for them but hadn't told her because he knew how proud she was.

" My love ,

As I write this to you all I see is your beautiful face and your stunning blue eyes looking down at me the moment you said yes to me, yes to be mine.

I will say that I love you and the words will come up short to what i feel for you.

I'll say that I close my eyes imagining your face and it would never be a true reflection of how magnificent i think you are.

Your are magnificent…. More than any other.

And know that it is my love and my adoration for your strength, for your wit and your determination aside from your beauty that I'm going to insist that you make our house, the one we shared during those romantic night, our home.

It would give me calm and peace knowing you are living comfortably while I'm away.

In a few days I'm going to make arrangements and please please please , love don't say no.

Caroline, i miss you every waking second. Do you remember the day I kissed you on the bridge and we…"

Then as if he had been interrupted the letter was incomplete.

She remembered every word of his letter as read it every night to her baby and herself.

Setting down her bags she climbed the steps and her mother joined her.

Her mother ran a hand over hair lovingly and asked, "Baby you sure?"

"I'm sure mama. I want my baby to grow up in the house his father would have wanted him to."

"You still don't know if its a girl or a boy." her mother remarked.

"I want it to be a surprise mama." Caroline added as she unlocked the house and went in.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::

(A FEW MONTHS LATER)

Whoever had said that having a baby was a miracle should be shot in their freaking head Caroline thought as another contraction rolled through her.

The doctor said , " Push."

And she yelled, "What do you think...ahhh ...I'm doing? Ahhhh ! I'm not sucking it in…"

"Very good. The heads almost out. One more push Caroline you are doing great." the doctor said.

"Ahhhhhh. This is so not…" Caroline began but stopped as the next instant a cute cry echoed in the room.

"It's a girl. Congratulations." doctor announced as her mother cut the cord.

"What? A girl?"

"Yes baby I'm a grandma. And my granddaughter is so precious just like her mother" her mother said as she handed the infant to Caroline.

Her mother asked,"So what do you think?"

"She is a miracle Mama." Caroline replied as she kissed her perfect daughter.

;;:;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

(Three months later)

The baby's cries woke her up the third time and Caroline then noticed it was now almost dawn.

She quickly picked little Olivia up and unbuttoned her shirt to feed her. As soon as the baby latched on she became quite.

Caroline ran soothing hands down her girls tiny back and kissed her cooing unintelligible words at the same time. But it was well into the morning when Olivia finally decided to sleep. However Caroline herself was now wide awake. Deciding to get on with her chores she went into the backyard and took off the onesies hanging on the line.

With a basket in her hand she rounded into the front yard when she saw a figure open the front yard door and enter.

The basket fell out of her hands as she saw Klaus make way to her.

She just stood rooted to where she was for a few protracted minutes and then she ran towards him as he ran to crush her in his arms. Wanting to make sure he was alive she kissed him and when tasted him on her lips her she felt the ache fade away as he lifted her off the ground a little.

"Youre back. You're back!" she moaned against his mouth.

"I am. I love you Caroline. I kept fighting because I had to return to you." he mumbled as he put her down and cupped her face. She was his life.

"But it's not just me now." she replied and his heart constricted at the thought of someone else in her life.

"We have a daughter Nik."

"What?"

"Yes. I call her Livvy. But officially it's Olivia Mikealson. She kept waking up at night it was as if she wanted me to be awake when you came back." Caroline said her feelings overwhelming her.

Klaus felt a little scared but then he glanced at her shining smile and it felt so right.

He hugged her and then walked into the house with her.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

It had been a month since he had returned and he still had nightmares where he was in the battle field. He woke up sweat beading his forehead, he got out of the bed.

Caroline was asleep on her side. He leaned towards her kissed her forehead. It always calmed him down, just her presence was enough. Things were however still a little strained since he hadn't held his daughter even once afraid he might hurt that little fragile being with hands that had done unimaginable things in war.

He heard a wail coming from the nursery and he looked at Caroline who was still asleep.

Then on a whim he walked over to the nursery and looked down at the wailing angel.

"What the matter baby girl you hungry?" he cooed in a soft voice. Olivia sneezed a small cute voice between her hiccups and he couldn't help himself and picked her up.

As soon as he did baby Olivia quietened and snuggled closer.

He turned and saw Caroline standing at the threshold. She wiped away her tears and moved forward to kiss him.

"I'm going to be okay Caroline. I'm going to be the best father and husband to you both. I promise." he stated as he hugged his future wife.

:::::::::::::::::

"I'm going to be the best father and husband to you both. I promise." he said to me as hugged me his arms full of our beautiful little cupcake.

Caroline said as she ended her read at the Best selling writers convention.

"To this day my husband and my beautiful daughter continue to be my inspiration for my writing." Caroline stated with a smile and looked at Klaus with Olivia in his lap sitting in the audience.

He mouthed "I love you" and then kissed his daughter's head.

"And even as I'm saying these words my perfect husband is telling me he loves me."

The audience all awww-ed and she smiled.

"Thank you so much for coming to this read. I hope to continue to be a source of joy to you people through my books."

Then she excused herself and went straight to the two brightest stars of her life.
