OMG! I am so sorryhow late I have updated this, ive just been super busy with college. I decided to do this in two parts because this chaapter alone was over 2000 words long so i didnt want to bore you, on with the story...

Caroline was putting on her lipstick when she glanced at her phone 8:25pm, 5 more minutes until the most awkward encounter in history was about to happen, her head started to wonder over Rebekah and hows she feels about the situation all four of them are in. With one last look in the mirror Caroline straightened out the invisible wrinkles of her dress, fluffed her hair and strolled out of her room over to Rebekah's who she thought could do with some moral support and one of Caroline's famous pep talks, she wasn't head cheerleader in high school for nothing.


Klaus was in his room, he had been ready for half an hour and now was pacing, hows tonight going to go? what is going to happen if it's a disaster? if it is a disaster im going to need to do some serious groundwork to make up for this, I wonder what she's wearing...all these thoughts were swimming in Klaus' head when clicking against the polished wood floors filled his ears and snapped him out of his mind filled with possible scenarios, he thought it was best to stop pacing and getting himself worked up because he wouldn't catch Caroline's affections with clammy hands and pit stains, looking at the clock he realized it was 8:30 so made his way down the stairs to see only Stefan, giving him a knowing look, "was it so hard to actually get a girl to show up on time""tell me about it, but girls will be girls" at this point Klaus was at the bottom of the stairs when he heard a girly 'Humph' which could only come from his sister "you two should feel lucky were even letting you come, so don't pull that one on us" Rebekah carried on having a little rant about how long it takes a girl to get ready, Klaus having listened to enough of Rebekah's temper tantrums over the years didn't bother listening until a sweet laugh appeared from nowhere, when Klaus looked up he saw Caroline, he couldn't decide what was better, the dress she was wearing or her laugh. He made brief eye contact with her and she quickly looked away so she could descend the staircase.


Caroline was outside Rebekah's door when she heard grumbling from the other side of the door, she could only pick up ma few words like 'big mistake' 'not again' and 'bugger', she thought it was about time she made her presence known and tapped on the door, when she got no reply she strolled in to see clothes and various bags spread over her bed with lipstick smudged into the crème carpet, I don't think she will be going on the maids Christmas card list, she smirked at her own joke and when she looked up she saw Rebekah on her hands and knees still grumbling, "Rebekah are you alright" this startled Rebekah and she jumped up "Caroline, bloody hell you nearly gave me a heart attack""sorry I did knock and there was no answer""no its okay, im just looking for my leather clutch with red trim I can't find it anywhere" Caroline sighed and looked at her feet when she caught sight of something she held it up to Rebekah "something like this?" Caroline smirked. After Rebekah had done her finishing touches to her face Caroline looked at her and said "you ready, we better get downstairs to meet the boys.""oh they can wait five minutes, can I talk to you about something...""of course you can Rebekah whats on your mind?""its Stefan, ever since ive seen him he's all I can think about, you obviously know I still have feelings for him but what if he doesn't feel like that anymore, you saw him basically mock our plans...you don't do that to someone you have feelings for do you" Caroline was listening attentively to every word Rebekah was saying and trying to come up with a logical explanation, what Rebekah was saying couldn't be true she could clearly see how Stefan had acted when he saw Rebekah and then it clicked in her head, of course it was so obvious "Rebekah did it ever cross your mind he wasn't doing it to be mean but to not make Klaus suspicious?""what are you talking about?""well you said that you didn't want Klaus to find out about you and him so maybe Stefan is just going along with what you said, ever thought of that? honestly that could be the only logical explanation,""are you sure, he sounded pretty convincing""I positive just by the way he looked at you, i have never seen anything like that not even with me and Tyler" Rebekah was going a little red, "well you've never been wrong before so, fingers crossed""exactly, even if he wasn't sure before, you in that outfit will make it certain. Rebekah then smiled and seeming to have her confidence back she strolled out of her room linked arms with Caroline for support. when they got close to the stairs they heard Klaus and Stefan talking about how girls are always late and Rebekah being the 'extreme feminist' that she is was having a go at them, Caroline rolled her eyes, this is going to take forever she thought Rebekah then turned to her a bit more angry than usual and said "all this is rich coming from Nik, who used to spend double the time in the bathroom getting ready and always saying 'perfection takes time Rebekah', he's such a hypocrite!" Caroline started bursting out laughing, who even says that? she met with the eyes of the man who did for a moment before walking down the stairs.


Once the girls reached the bottom they strutted past the boys and headed straight for the car. Sufficed to say the ride to the club was awkward and the tension was so thick you could cut it with the knife, Caroline made a quick blessing when she felt the car slow down because that meant they had arrived at the club, she attempted to scramble out of the car unable to put up with the awkwardness when she lost her footing, she closed her eyes ready for impact but it never came instead she felt a strong-arm around her waist preventing her from coming into contact with the ground. When she looked up she was met with his clear blue eyes for the second time that night, they stayed light that for a few moments "Careful their love." "It's not "love" its Caroline!" "Whatever you say sweetheart." Caroline was scowling at him with pent-up anger, someone cleared their throat from behind Klaus. When they both looked in that direction they saw Rebekah standing there tapping her foot impatiently with Stefan showing one of his typical sympathetic broody faces. Realizing the place they were in both hastily stood up and sorted themselves out. Rebekah with a scowl on her face said "When you two are finished, I would like to go in the club." She stormed past Klaus and gave him a look basically saying MESS-AROUND-WITH-MY-FRIEND-AND-I-WILL-FUCKING-END-YOU. Having got over her little scolding Caroline perked up a bit when Rebekah linked arms with her and arm in arm strutted into the club.


Klaus watched as Caroline's retreating figure made her way into the club, he came out of his daze when he felt a hand tapping his shoulder in a comforting way, "Wow Klaus you certainly know how to choose them, that ones a little spitfire." "I don't know what you're talking about" Klaus snapped back "Hey man don't get all worked up AGAIN" he said with a little chuckle."I need a drink" was all Klaus replied and made his way in. Stefan watched Klaus go in and then sighed not only did he have to deal with his relationship problems but Klaus' also. Stepping into the club Stefan looks around for Rebekah, one of the main reasons he even bothered to come here was so he could catch a dance with her, he looks across the dance floor and his face drops when he sees someone has already beaten him to it. Feeling disappointment wash over him he walks over to find Caroline talking to a man and Klaus scowling at them. He slumps down next to him, "whats got you looking all annoyed?" Stefan said smirking knowing what was happening. "Nothing just scanning for my next conquest," at this point the guy Caroline was talking to had left and she interrupted, "if you like Klaus I could be your wing woman?" Stefan couldn't help but burst out in laughter. If only she knew. Little did Stefan know, she did...


As Caroline and Rebekah sat down in a booth a guy came along and introduced himself as Matt and asked Rebekah if she wanted to dance, she was about to say no when Caroline elbowed her. "Sure I would love too." he grabbed her hand and disappeared into the drunken crowd. It wasn't long until Klaus decided to jump into the booth and start a conversation with her, normally she would be fine but what happened outside made her more uncomfortable than it should be. "Having' a good time love?" he said into her ear making her nerves stand on end. "I've just got here, the verdict is still out." Klaus couldn't help a little snicker come out from his mouth. She raised her eyebrow "whats so funny?" "Oh, nothing love it's just refreshing to see someone so optimistic and indecisive" "I'll have you know I am not indecisive and the optimism comes from when I was a cheerleader!" she said her cheeks turning a little pink, why was she letting him get under her skin. Great! Klaus thought, she is even better now she had mentioned she was a cheerleader, tonight is gonna be a long night. "A cheerleader, huh I guess that explains how you're always so perky," "Well I had to be, what good is a head cheerleader without perkiness?" head cheerleader? Fuck! he thought, "well maybe love you can show me one of your routines sometime, in the outfit of course." Caroline looked a bit embarrassed which then turned to outrage once she realized what he was insinuating. Before she could reply she felt a tap on her shoulder, when she turned around she came face to face with a man "Hi there, my name Lorenzo but you can call me Enzo, I just saw you from my place at the bar and i thought id come over and compliment you on such a fine dress," Klaus looked at Caroline with shock on his face, she's not really going to fall for that is she? "Why thank you Lore- sorry Enzo, im Caroline." she said in a sickly sweet voice and toothless smile, they talked for a bit longer and he said he had to leave but not before he gave Caroline his number, she felt bad for him because she was only doing it to get a rise out of Klaus and from his face it seemed to be working, she knew it was a bit juvenile but she could see what he was trying to do. Two can play that game Mikaelson. Once Enzo was out of site Caroline turned around to see Stefan there and heard Klaus say, "just scanning for my next conquest," she rolled her eyes and then thought, this could be her opportunity to grind his gears and be the biggest cock-block he has ever seen, "if you like Klaus i could be your wing woman?" and from his face she had her answer.
