Let's just hope this works….

Caroline's POV:

Today is our third day in New Orleans. I'm extremely nervous about how this will turn out. I love Klaus but there is something missing, well, someone. I've always wanted to be a mom; I know the names of my children and how they should look and what they would act like. I'm not sure about Klaus though. He had a horrible childhood and I don't want him to be afraid of acting like Mikael to our baby.

"Care, are you coming?" Bonnie called from the kitchen where she was making breakfast. I hurriedly put the paintings that Klaus kept here away and sped downstairs for breakfast. All of the sudden Bekah gasped loudly. "I can feel it! Something in me is changing. I'm not sure what, but I think this means I can have a baby!" She was smiling with excitement before dashing to her room and bringing her bags downstairs.

"Uh, what are you doing?" I asked when she grabbed the car keys and started out the door with a huge grin plastered on her face. "Well, obviously, we need to get back. I can't wait to see Mat I know that he has always wanted kids and he would make a great dad." She received nods of agreement and we were out the door in seconds.

…

(Days later)

We are all pregnant. It's crazy and I haven't exactly told Klaus. I've even gone to the doctor and made sure. My mom was the first to know other than the girls and today is the day that I'll be telling Klaus.

It's so hard to tell someone that can't procreate that after sleeping together one time you are pregnant. We've been together for a while and Klaus is supportive of nearly everything I do but I don't know how this little one will blow over; I just pray that he won't walk out on me.

No POV:

Klaus walked quickly to the picnic bench that was on a hiking trail somewhere outside of town. Caroline had called him a short while ago and she sounded worried when she asked him to meet her here.

Caroline waved when he came into view and braced herself for his reaction. She saw his facial features change and his ears slightly perk up even in his human form. "What is that sound love?" He asked moving towards Caroline to wrap her in his arms.

As Klaus enveloped her in a hug Caroline felt him stiffen. "Caroline Forbes, what the hell is that noise? It's a heartbeat coming from you. And don't look at me like that; I know that your heart is beating but this heartbeat is human and light. Why?" He was beginning to suspect that he was in for a surprise. Like a ripper girlfriend.

Caroline moved to stand in front of him. She held his hand tightly and whispered, "Klaus, when we went to the Bahamas, we really went to see a witch in New Orleans. She cast a spell, we asked, well begged her to. Now we are all pregnant. And this baby in me is yours."

Klaus was shocked. How could this be, why would the fates curse him to this? He knew that he would be a horrible father. And his thoughts must have shown on his face because Caroline spoke again. "Klaus you will be an excellent father. You are not Mikael's son. You are the son of a kind man, a man named Garret." Klaus shook his head and began to pull away from her.

"Klaus," She whispered, grabbing both of his hands before continuing, "If you are really leaving me then at least give me one last kiss. Like a parting gift. I didn't even expect you to stay this long in the first place. I just want you to be happy, so go if you have to. Just promise me one last thing." She finished weakly with tears streaming down her flushed cheeks.

Klaus was holding back tears because of what he was about to do. One last wish could be granted. "Anything" he barely choked out. Caroline took a deep breath before letting go of his hands. "Promise me," she stopped to clear her throat that was thick with unshed tears. "Promise that this isn't our final goodbye; that you will come back to me and this baby. Please, for me. It's all I ask." The last words were barely above a whisper as she let tears freely flow down her face, as he turned to leave her.

"I promise." He said before placing a soft kiss on her lips and disappearing in the dark and rainy distance. Caroline sunk to her knees and let out an anguished cry. "No, don't leave. Not now." She finished her plea in a whisper as she felt numbness creeping over her broken heart.

An ecstatic couple consisting of Rebekah and Mat found her that way the next morning when they were going for a hike to find the perfect place to bury a time capsule for their baby to dig up in twenty years. The only response there idea got from the others was a quietly muttered insult about being overachievers. Rebekah's startled scream is what broke their happy trance when she stumbled upon an unconscious Caroline laying on the trail.

Mat thought that Klaus had just ditched her but Rebekah knew that he was probably hiding in the trees somewhere making sure that Caroline was safe. She could also sense her closest brother's presence within the mile. So in her rage she screamed at the trees, "Niklaus Mikaelson, you are horrible! She did this for you not to you! And that witch warned her also. She told us that you would leave her! But your Caroline didn't listen she said, 'the man I love wouldn't eve do that to me. We are in love. Forever and always is what he tells me.' But you broke her. She is probably never going to live you down. She will always be broken and waiting. All I can say is 'who the hell are you, because my brother would never do this to the one that they love!'

Rebekah was sobbing when she finished and she made a silent promise to Caroline that her brother would come back to her.
