BE A TIGER


chapter 1

at the bar


Caroline kept an eye on Klaus while he laid on the bar table, now with a drink in hand. He told her she was drunk. She said he was fun. Then he laughed-cried as she was explaining how to make a nice French braid. She didn't forget to explain him that his short hair was a problem. It didn't allow him to make anything in his nice hair.

"Is it blond or brunette?"

"Are you colour-blind?"

"No I'm not" she sounded offended. "You are colour-blind!"

"Why am I colour-blind!?" he asked surprised for her direct attack.

"Because you hair can't decide the it's own colour!" she yelled pointing to his hair with a gesture that could be translated as 'your hair is idiot'. Klaus's hair obviously had to feel offended. Although it was impossible, her offensive was more like a five years old calling you 'ugly tomato' it really doesn't hurt you. So when she was looking all drunk, ignoring that she had just taken a few cups, he can't help but laugh even more.

"Brother!" Kol came walking towards them with easy.

He was alone, Klaus saw. He had to be done with his girl.

"Surprised you haven't killed her yet, she insulted your hair"

"I'm sure his hair forgave me. Cause I'm cute"

Caroline was totally making fun of both now.

"Oh, babe vampire is full of herself I see"

"Yeah, babe vampire knows what she'd got. Good or bad, life is this way" Caroline was being series, even if she was smiling, almost laughing softly. "You two are brothers, right? Are you a hybrid too?" she asked, with genuine curiosity.

"No, he is the weird one. I'm pure original vampire. Kol, a pleasure" he said driving his hand toward her. It seemed like he just wanted to shake hands so she thought it didn't matter. Klaus knew she had done the wrong thing with the wrong person. Kol was licking her hand before she could even understand what was happening.

Not again.

Please.

Kol smirked and sad down besides Caroline.

Caroline's face was still making a 'what the hell just happened' expression. Klaus was sure Kol loved that. Always sicking attention that brother of his. At the beginning he didn't understand why Kol did that. Licking all the hands of the woman he had any relation didn't make to much sense, it was later when Klaus got Kol's intention. Pretty simply actually: freak out every woman Klaus came cross with because, and Klaus was quoting Kol mentally, Kol was bored. Well, so was Klaus, that why he got himself a woman!

Kol really had weird ways of getting fun. He was a grown up man why didn't he just flew off like all the teenagers and then come back when his forever crazy hormones were on place? Or was that to much to ask for?

Obviously it was, now Kol was telling Caroline the story of how the wrench they have as mother cheated on their father, not Klaus, and form that he was born. Then a explanation of how that left a big deep trauma on Nick's heart as kid. "I bed to differ, brother. We didn't even know about the affair until much later. As you well know"

Kol smiled again. Then he got closer to Caroline who was weirdly in silence and whispered: "Touchy topic, this one. Sorry"

Kol drank from his glass.

Klaus ignored him and proceeded with his work evaluating Caroline's state. It wasn't because she was drunk. She seemed more like…

"I'm bored" she blurted.

Bored?

"You got two of the oldest man in the world and you are bored?"

Klaus did feel offended.

"Well, yes…" she started.

"I'm hot and you are not paying me attention!" yelled Kol. "You miss it missy! I won't lose more time with you and you fake blond hair!" and with that he left.

What the bloody hell was that?

"You may excuse you young brother, he is kind of a drama queen when it comes into the attention he wants but doesn't get"

No!

Klaus felt the need to hit his head hard against the bar table.

"Elijah what are you doing here?"

Caroline had seen how the short dark haired man left his blond/brunette brother in a perfect dramatic performance but she wasn't waiting for another short haired man, provably a vampire, to appear for his own part of the play.

"Wait" she said interrupting. "If, as your brother the young one (Cole I think) said both of your parents were blond. How do two of the biological sons have dark hair and the one that isn't have more a blondish shade? Are you sure you are the one from your mom's affair?" she asked Klaus heartily.

Elijah wasn't expecting that.

Klaus, for another side, was starting to understand Caroline's mind while being drunk: The pointless something is, more attention she'll pay. She was lovely, but it was obvious that she wasn't in her best while being drunk.

Just like everyone.

Elijah smiled politely and sat down at the table with them. Klaus begged to no one in particular asking for Elijah not to be in a talkative mood.

It didn't happen a lot.

But when it did.

Nothing ended up well.

His brother smiled.

"Don't you have anything better to do?" Elijah asked.

Klaus smiled sweetly.

"Not really, just getting a drink"

Elijah had an answered, of course. "I wish Rebakah was here. I've heard she is coming over soon"

Caroline's face showed how interesting the topic had become. "Rebakah" she repeated the name. It seemed like she was trying to remember who the name belonged too. It tooked her a bit to accept she didn't know this Rebekah girl. "Who is she?" she finally asked.

"Our sister" simply said Klaus.

"She is getting home tomorrow"

Caroline was happy for that. New girl in town. Maybe she could still have new someone else before her new life out of Mystic Falls had to begin.

Klaus had a little hope. Caroline didn't sound totally abolish the idea or a new woman in town, and looked almost exited. Maybe her drunkenness affecting a little on that. Klaus always considered woman the most competitive things in the planet. And living with Rebekah proved him right. Until he met Caroline.
