A/N: Okay guys, so first I want to apologize for how long of a wait you have had to go through: I was thinking about deleting the story. But then I saw all of the beautiful reviews and I just had to keep going. Now that the school year is going, I procrastinate and when I procrastinate, I write. So the chapters will probably be coming out faster now. I also want to apologize for how short this chapter is, but I kind of want to see if anyone still cares about the story ;) and this hasn't been edited (because of pure laziness). One more thing and then you may read, so I have created a twitter account please follow me. You can yell at me when I'm slow at updating and it will just be easier for me to announce upcoming chapters and stuff. So please follow me!

now you may enjoy the story:
p.s. my disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Diaries, wish I did, dreamt I did once, but I don't. Enjoy :)
Immediately Caroline felt ridiculous, she had to be strong. Or at the very least, not cry in front of Enemy Number 1. She could cry all she wanted once she was home, but not in front of anyone.
Klaus seemed to be able to read her thoughts, he did not offer a hand of comfort. He simply spoke, "It's not lonely if you have someone. Which you do. I've been able to pull through knowing that one day my family will be able to reunite itself.
He looked down at the baby vampire, taking pity on her. Still, he knew that they were not friends. She may not hate him as much as she pretended to, but still he couldn't comfort the young girl. Although he held himself back, he was still surprised by the pain it caused his dead heart. It was similar to the pain he felt when he saw Rebekah's broken heart the second he daggered her.
"I'm sorry for my melt down." Caroline sniffed, "That was immature of me, still getting used to the heightened emotions." She laughed, trying to turn the situation into a joke.
Klaus reassured her that it was fine, quickly trying to steer the conversation back to her upcoming SAT testing. Which the blonde gladly began to talk about, he told her that he would find her an adequate tutor as long as she promised to have coffee with him once a week.
A deal was struck.
Caroline flipped her hair, a common habit of hers when she was going into her 'organized freak' mode. She began to look through the teacher's desk, "Okay, so Ms. Henry probably left a lesson plan or something. Even if she didn't plan on dying before this endeavor she probably would have had one for herself. Did you ever go to high school?" She suddenly asked.
"Darling, I am a thousand year old vampire who doesn't look like they should be in high school. Why would I ever waste my time with anything so trivial?" He asked with a smug smirk plastered on that beautiful face of his. He let out a chuckle as his companion roller her eyes at his comment.
"Either way," She said with a smile on her face, "you'll have to figure out how to do this. Think essay topics that you may want us to do, like comparing American literature in the twenty's to literature now. Stuff like that, we are supposed to have weekly vocabulary tests, but this is public school. So that doesn't get done." She was flipping through some of the paper work, "Give us a list of questions off the reading and you should be good. It's a really simple job."
Truth be told, Klaus was barely listening to his new "friend," he was simply admiring the fact that he was progressively succeeding. Maybe, just maybe: one day this would no longer be a forced friendship.
"Do you think you think that I will be a good teacher?" He asked, simply looking to talk to her for a little while.
Caroline smiled as she picked her bag off the ground and slung it over her shoulder, "It doesn't matter, the girls already love you and the boys already hate you. I'll see you tomorrow." She smiled and walked out of his life, only for a few hours and yet he already found himself missing her.
That was when he realized that his feeling for Caroline Forbes might be becoming dangerously close to something real
