This is basically from a prompt i got on tumblr. Just a short fluffy story. I may write a sequel for my friend but who knows anyway. I hope you like it.
TRAFFIC TICKET
"Mam. I'd like you to step out of your vehicle please." the officer with a British accent said.
Caroline couldn't believe this. Hadn't her recent series of catastrophes been enough, that she was now going to get a traffic ticket too.
Oh god what was happening? She stepped out as tears began to fall uncontrollably. She sniffled loudly. The cop Mikaelson looked up asked, "Are you crying, Mam?"
"No I am not crying this is just something my eyes do when my life can't catch a freaking break. And I'm no mam mind you if i were some mam you wouldn't have written me a ticket."
Klaus Mikaelson was just doing his job asking a woman to pull over so he could give her a speeding ticket and be off on his merry way. He hadn't known the cute blonde would start crying. It was making him feel uncomfortable and guilty,,,womens tears always made him feel guilty a weakness that was thoroughly exploited by his sister.
"Ah.."
"I can not believe this." she wiped her face with her sleeves and then launched in another bout of noisy crying, "You know what this is? This is not a traffic ticket. This is fate telling me that I am shit. Like a giant blob of useless turd. I can't even drive without getting a," another sniffle, "ticket. This is officially the cherry on my semester failing, my ex-bf marrying my best friend and people pitying me for that, and my poor broke ass cake. This is me maxing out on the lowest of my lifes lows. I probably have some sort of herpes too." She sniffled again.
Klaus took out a napkin from his pocket and handed it to her, "I'm sorry. But you need to calm down."
She ungracefully blew her nose in the napkin and tried to hand it back to him. He made a cringing face, "Ah I'm okay. You can keep it, mam."
"I'm not a mam. It's Caroline. Sheriff Mikaelson."
"Officer."
"Oh god I can't even get law ranks right." another high-pitched wail had a middle aged passer by stop. The guy gave Klaus a suspicious look and asked Caroline, "Is the Officer bothering you honey?"
"Hey I'm not bothering her you are." Klaus replied over the din of Caroline's sobs. Then shook himself, I'm not bothering her you are what was he? Eight. Awesome comeback Klaus, he chided himself. "Nothing is wrong. So leave." he said to the guy a bit more authoritatively and the guy left. Then Klaus addressed Caroline, "Look. Please just calm down." he made a face again when she blew in his napkin again. He gestured towards her car, "Please sit." She got inside her car and he leaned a little to face her. "Here's what we are going to do. I'm going to let you off with a warning because let's face it an ex getting married to your best friend is a big deal."
She wiped her face and narrowed her eyes at him, "Really? Actually my high school boyfriend also cheated on…"
"I was joking." Klaus replied unable to stop himself from smiling.
"Oh. I was just trying to .."
"Nevermind. So I'll let go with a warning. But you need to be more careful in future."
"Yes. Thank you so much. I swear I'll make you proud..…." she realized how weird her last sentence sounded and shaking her head added, "I mean thank you and I'm sorry for my crazy rant back there."
"It's fine." he smiled again.
Boy was he handsome or what. She started her car and he moved back a little. "By the way that ex of yours must be a stupid git." Klaus remarked half surprised at himself.
She smiled at him. He was right she was cute, cuter with her pretty smile. Then she drove off but he felt good when she looked back at him through her side mirror and smiled again.
