"Klaus please don't-" Caroline started but drifted off when she realized it was useless. The only thing that she liked about being a vampire was that she could not be compelled. Sadly she still could be compelled, by Klaus. She didn't want to go back to being the ditzy blonde who doesn't know she's being used.
Klaus knew exactly what he could do he could take away one thing he knew she treasured. Her freedom.
"You will not leave this house." He told her. "I gave you a choice before, and you betrayed me. Now I'm not giving you a choice, you will stay in this house until I say otherwise. Understand?"
She hated that all she could do was nod helplessly. She quickly dropped her gaze to the floor. She cursed herself silently for ever thinking coming here was a good idea, no not thinking. The last thing that she did before coming here was think.

Caroline looked around the empty room and wrapped the blankets tighter around her. She didn't want to be awake. She buried her head in the pillow wanting to scream, sadly the pillow wouldn't muffle the screams enough so that a house full of vampires wouldn't hear. Klaus had her sleeping in his room because supposedly there weren't any extra rooms. She sighed when she heard the door open.
"Good morning, love." He said cheerfully.
She lifted her head from the pillow and glared at him. This just made him smile.
"How did you sleep last night?" He asked a tinge of annoyance in his voice. She knew why and had to stop herself from laughing. She had kicked him multiple times 'on accident.'
She looked up at him and smirked. "I slept wonderfully. How about you?"
He rolled his eyes and turned around opening a notebook that sat on his desk flipping through the pages then quickly he slamming it shut. It made her jump a little. One of the many things on her list of things not to do when Klaus was around.
He smirked, then he frowned and stared at her for over a minute. Caroline raised her eyebrows at him. "What?" She asked getting annoyed that he was just staring at her.
"I'm trying to decide what I should do with you today. I have errands to run."
She rolled her eyes and looked at the blank wall next to her staring at it like it was the most interesting thing she had ever see.
He suddenly smiled. "I know!" He said and she looked back at him. "Rebekah mentioned she wasn't doing anything today."
She frowned. He wanted her to hang out with his evil blood slut sister?
Klaus suddenly exited the room and Caroline listened intently to their conversation downstairs.
"Rebekah!" Klaus said cheerfully.
"What, Nik?" She asked in a slightly angry voice.
"You know how you were mad at me because you had nothing to do today?"
"Yes." She said somewhat suspiciously.
"Well I found someone who will be equally as bored today!" Caroline scoffed at this. He forgot to mention equally angry at Klaus.
"Who's that?" She asked skeptically.
"Caroline Forbes." He said happily.
You could almost here the incredilous expression Rebekah was giving Klaus. Caroline heard her scoff and walk off.
"Rebekah!" Klaus called after her. "Please?" He asked and Caroline heard the footsteps stop and an exaggerated sigh from Rebekah.
"Fine." She said.

So far the day had gone horribly. Rebekah had called her some sort of name every fifteen minutes for the past six hours or so. They sat on the couch as Rebekah flipped through a collection of movies. She smiled as she finally chose one.
"What are we watching?" Caroline asked as Rebekah put the dvd into the player. Rebekah ignored her and pressed play. She smiled as the title came across the screen. Toy Story, it said. Caroline decided to make an attempt at conversation again. "Have you seen this movie?" Caroline asked.
Rebekah continued to ignore her. Caroline rolled her eyes. Usually she would have stopped trying to have a conversation with her, but the facts were she was stuck there and she didn't know for how long so it would be good for her to have a friend.
"Come on, Rebekah! Say something I am going to die if the only person that talks to me is Klaus."
Rebekah sighed and looked at Caroline who was a complete mess. Even though she had tried her best to make herself look a least a little bit presentable, she had failed miserably. Her hair was a mess because she would not stop running her hand through it nervously. She still had some eye liner from the previous day on her face, and she looked exhausted.
"What do you want to talk about Caroline?" Rebekah asked.
Caroline just shrugged and yawned. "How are you?"
"I'm alright. How are you?" Rebekah said trying to be pleseant.
"I'm fine, thank you." She replied. That's what she always said to people when they asked her that question.
Rebekah raised her eyebrows at her as if to say 'Really?'
Caroline just shook her head and laughed. "I don't know. I'm to tired to know." She said leaning her head back on the couch.

Klaus walked into the house that night seeing all the lights were off he was about to call out for Rebekah when she appeared in front of him holding her index finger to her lips. "Shh." She said harshly motioning toward the couch where Caroline was sound asleep. He looked at her skeptically since when he left Rebekah and Caroline had not been speaking.
Rebekah shook her head at his puzzled look. "Turns out me and her have more in common than I thought." She whispered.
"Like what?" He asked dubiously.
"We both can't stand you." She smirked and started upstairs when she was halfway up she turned around. "Leave her alone right now, okay?"
Suprised by Rebekah's concern for this girl that earlier today she seemed to despise, he just nodded. Satisfied, Rebekah smiled and continued up the stairs.
Klaus walked over to the sleeping girl on the couch. He saw her shiver, grabbing another blanket from the closet he covered her with the warm quilt. He smiled and then frowned at how content she looked. He was supposed to be punishing her for betraying him.
But he told his sister he would not bother her right now, so he wouldn't.
