Caroline awoke early the next morning, the sun shining down into her bedroom, covering the entire room in warmth and sunlight. Glancing over at her clock she groaned, "It's only..7AM." she mumbled to herself. With a sigh she sat up in bed and brushed a hand through her hair, swung her legs over the edge of the bed and got up. Glancing at herself in the mirror she let a small smile escape her lips. "It's a day by day process." She whispered to herself, remembering fondly the words Klaus had said when she'd asked him how he could be in love with her last week. Deciding a shower was in order, Caroline quickly stripped and headed into the shower.

After about twenty or minutes so, Caroline stepped out of the shower. Clad in only a towel she cursed when the doorbell rang downstairs. "Damnit." She huffed. "Just a minute!" she yelled, and quickly got dressed. Running a brush through her hair, she was downstairs in no less then five minutes. Opening up the door her smile faded, and turned into a straight thin line. "Klaus."

[[ Klaus's POV ]]

Being that it was fairly early, I decided to take a walk. To none other then Caroline Forbes's house. At this hour? She'd either just be getting out of the shower, or just getting up. Any chance to see her weak or, defenseless, made my fingers tingle with excitement. With a smirk I walked up the few porch steps to her door and pressed on the bell. Mumbling and cursing could be heard, and fumbling around. "just a second!" came her voice, sweet and rich, like honey. Tucking my hands into my pockets, I waited for a few more moments before the door finally opened.

"Klaus." She said, her smile instantly disappearing. "Awh, come on now, love. Don't frown." I responded, a smirk growing on my lips. "What the hell do you want?" she growled. Rubbing the bridge of my nose, I glanced at her. "Is it wrong for me to want to come visit?" I asked. She took a moment to pause, looking beautiful even while in thought. "Yes. Well, it depends. You didn't bring any more drawings or expensive jewelry did you? Because if you did, I'll close this door on your face right now." She growled. I shook my head, "No. No drawings, and definitely no jewelry. Just a question." I shrugged. Caroline ran a hand through her hair damp, wet hair. She had most likely just gotten out of the shower, for he could smell the soap on her body. "Well?" she prodded. "Please, accompany me on a date, Mrs. Forbes?" I asked. She shook her head, "What part of 'No' don't you understand?" she hissed, and then proceeded to slam the door in my face and head upstairs.

Caroline sighed, it had felt good to do that. Slam the door in his face and just walk away. Walking into her room she sat down on her bed, her head in her hands. "I just don't understand anymore," she whispered to herself. Getting up she walked over to her window and discreetly looked out, checking to see if Klaus had gone. Indeed he had. Letting out a sigh of relief she grabbed her purse, and keys and headed over to the Grill. If things we're still going on with Klaus, and she was going to none other then Damon for advice, she'd need a drink or two before doing so. With her luck though, Damon would already be there.

Elena sighed happily had she woken up in Stefan's arms. "Mhm…good morning." He had mumbled into her hair, kissing her head gently. "Good Morning." She whispered softly. Turning on her side so that she faced him now she smiled gently, poking his nose. "Yes? Mrs. Gilbert? Do you need something?" he smirked, a smile coming to his lips. She shook her head, "No. Not at all. You know, besides you." She returned with a grin, leaning over and kissing him. They stayed like that for a while, in bed, cuddling, kissing and just being together. Finally though, Elena spoke. "It's not just me, right…?" she asked.

"Not just you, what?" Stefan asked, rubbing soothing circles on the back of Elena's hand.

"Not just me, that's been noticing Caroline's odd behavior." She stated, glancing at him now.

"No. I think we've all been noticing it. Especially you. You've known her much longer, so I'm sure you're able to tell when something isn't right." He suggested.

"I know, she just….she usually talks about it. She hasn't been though, and I fear something may be really worrying her."

"Like what, love?"

"I don't know," Elena answered, pinching the bridge of her nose. "She had mentioned something about Klaus yesterday, but I wasn't able to find enough out before she just kicked me out." She shrugged.

Stefan pulled her close, so that she was in his lap and he could hold her close. "I would just give her some time, love. She'll come around eventually. Maybe not now, but she will tell you, if she's really your friend. Okay?" he asked. Elena nodded solemnly, "Come on." Stefan said, kissing her head gently. "Everything's going to be okay. I promise." He whispered.

"For our sakes, I hope you're right." Elena whispered, before kissing him quickly, and getting out of bed. The two getting ready for the day.
