Tyler's POV

I can't stand it anymore. How could I be so stupid as to leave Caroline alone with that monster? I told the girl I love to trust me with her life, when I don't even know what I'm doing myself. I have to try and save her without taking this kind of risk. I know that Caroline sparks a certain interest in Klaus, so if anyone could get him to do something, it would be her. But, how am I supposed to know how strong his thirst for revenge is? How can I think he has an ounce of humanity that will force him to actually save her? I can't take it anymore. I have to go to her. I start running out of the woods where I am hiding out towards the Gilbert house.

When I get within hearing distance of the house, all I hear is Klaus calling out Caroline's name. Oh shit! I decide to phase so that I can run faster. How can I be close enough to hear her dying breaths, but so far away that I can do nothing to help her? I phase with ease and run like my life depends on it. Within moments, I am outside on the porch, changing back to human and quickly pulling on some clothes I left here in case of an emergency. It's then that I realise that I can't hear anything. My heart races as I rush in the door. When I get in I can't see either of them, so I walk around to the living room. There, I see the original sitting behind my girlfriend, who seemed to be asleep, stroking her golden hair. A pang of jealousy and anger overwhelms and I am about to leap at him when he looks up and me, putting his index finger to his lips.

"I'd be quiet if I were you, mate. I just saved your dear girlfriend's life, so I would like to see some gratitude. And besides she is asleep. Funny how after almost dying, you are so tired you practically become unconscious"

"You saved her? Why?" I asked, trying my best to figure out what was going around in that ancient brain of is. How did she get him to do it? Suspicion rises throughout my whole body.

"Well, let's just say that now, you owe me." He says. Somehow, he makes every one of those words send shivers down my spine.

"What could you possibly want from me?" I ask, genuinely curious. He knows that I can't set him free and he already turned down my offer to be his slave again when I left Care here.

"I want you to leave here. Leave Mystic Falls and never come back." As soon as he says it, I freeze, anger, curiosity and disbelief running through my veins.

"Yeah sure, when hell freezes over," I say, sarcastically. Like hell I am leaving Caroline. I am completely in love with her. Why would even care if I am here or not? Why would he want me to leave? Then it comes to me. I know exactly why. "Wait a minute. You love her." I snort.

"I just think that she can do so much better than an amateur hybrid that is holding her back. She deserves someone that can show her the world. Culture, art, music. You could never give her that."

"What and you can? If you think that I am just going to leave her here with you, you are just as stupid as I give you credit for." I look at Klaus, who has just turned his attention back to Caroline. If I could kill him without risking hurting her, I would.

"I would never hurt her. And, as I said when you first barged in here, you owe me."

"Even if I did leave, she will never love you. You see, me and her are in love, which means that I love her and she loves me back, a concept you will never experience or understand. And what exactly what will you do if I don't leave? You are stuck in there and-"

"But I won't be in here for much longer!" Before I knew it he was up and in my face, his face bright red. Luckily I was on the other side of the shield. "And last time I checked, she was over here with me." he said pointing towards her sleeping body. She looked so peaceful, as if nothing bad was ever going on in the entire world. He was right. She was there. I was here. And any attempt of trying to save her that I try, he would always be one step ahead of me. I had to find a way to defeat him. But before I could, I had to go along with whatever he wanted, no matter how much it killed me inside.

"One day, no matter how long it takes, I will kill you, and if you do anything to hurt her, that day will just come sooner." I spit at him. I turn and begin to leave the house but stop, with my hand on the handle, when I hear him laugh. I open the door and run like hell before I change my mind. But not before I hear him speak,

"Yeah, I would like to see you try-mate."
