Chapter 2 – Baby Daddy
Klaus immediately told Juliet to wait in the car, and she nodded.
"Kol," Rebekah yelped and ran to hug him.
As much as she hated her brother, she didn't want him dead. She still loved him with all her heart.
"Alright, alright sister. Enough with the hugs. I miss you too," Kol chuckled, whispering the last part.
Rebekah let go, and flashed by Elijah's side. "What do you want Kol?" Klaus asked rudely. "Nothing of your concern, Nik." Kol barked back.
Klaus just shook his head, and entered his car and drove away.
"I'm sure you are here for a reason, brother?" Elijah questioned very calmly.
"Yes, um the little witch has filled me in on all the details about that snarky little bitch," Kol said, gritting his teeth.
"I see. And you brought him back why, Davina?" Elijah turned his attention to the witch standing between Caroline and Rebekah.
"I figured he'd help you guys out, I guess." She smiled and then skipped her way into the car.
Elijah sighed, turning to Caroline.
"You've seen what Niklaus has become. Please, will you help us, ?" Elijah almost sounded like he was pleading, and Rebekah was looking at her with puppy dog eyes.
"Yes, please? I know we haven't exactly been good friends in the past, but I'm begging you Caroline. Please." Rebekah said, almost in tears.
Caroline glanced at everyone around her, and looked at Stefan for help. Stefan shrugged, and Caroline sighed. She could use a break from boring old Mystic Falls and the fact that she just got dumped by Tyler makes it so much worse.
After a few moments of silence, Caroline finally decides to speak. "Fine," She said, and Rebekah's head immediately shot up, her eyes filled with hope. "But. Only if Stefan comes with me." She smirked and looked at Stefan. Everyone turned their attention to Stefan, waiting for his anwer.
"Of course I'd go with you Care," He smiled. Elijah silently thanked him and had a grateful expression on his face.
"Good, then. We'll be heading to New Orleans soon," Elijah smiled.
"Now hurry. You've got 2 hours to pack everything, who knows how long you'll be staying there." Elijah said, and then drove away in his car, leaving Rebekah alone.
She took out her phone and dialed her brother's number.
"Good God Elijah! You can't possibly give me 2 Hours to pack! All of my clothes in that Godforsaken city were the ones I had hundreds of years ago!" Rebekah yelled into her phone, making the rest chuckle at her silliness.
Elijah immediately turned around and headed back for Kol and Davina.
"Kol, come with me. You need some clothes. Davina, come along with. We need you to help him." Elijah said and then drove off, purposely forgetting Rebekah,- again.
"ELIJAH!" She screamed, loud enough for thousands of birds to erupt from the forest to the night sky.
Elijah heard her, of course, but drove away, anyways.
"I CAN'T RUN IN MY HEELS ELIJAH!" Rebekah screamed again, this time pouting.
And he kept droving away, leaving a frustrated Rebekah with Stefan and Caroline.
"Well then, leaves us three," Caroline said.
"Why don't you girls bond over clothes? Considering the fact that Elijah told me you will be in one house 4 hours from now." Stefan joked, and ran away.
"STEFAN!" both blondes yelled, echoing.
Stefan laughed, and went to the Salvatore boarding house to go pack.
"Well, I guess it's just you and me, then." Caroline sighed.
"Yeah, I guess so.. So just for tonight, can we just forget everything that happened between us and in the past?" Rebekah said, offering a little smile.
"Sure. Friends?" Caroline smiled.
"Friends." Rebekah smirked and both the girls laughed.
"Right, right. We're supposed to pack." Caroline laughed.
They first went to the Mansion where the Mikaelson family used to live, and packed 'some' of the few things that Rebekah would need.
They were staying for who knows how long and Rebekah and Caroline packed up 5 HUGE suitcases full of clothes, and another two for her purses and accessories, and another one for her shoes.
They needed help placing everything in the car trunk, so they had to jam a few suitcases into the back seat.
Then they went over to Caroline's house.
They quickly finished packing.
"Are you serious?" Rebekah asked, eyes widening.
Caroline frowned, not understanding what the other girl meant.
"You can't possibly only need 3 suitcases!" Rebekah exclaimed.
"No, it's really okay, Rebekah," Caroline giggled.
Rebekah tried to argue further, but Caroline was not to tolerate with her.
"Fine," Rebekah sighed and turned around.
"But as SOON as we get to New Orleans, we are going shopping with Hayley and Davina," She huffed, glaring at Caroline.
"Waaaait, say what? Hayley? As in brunette-werewolf-bitchy-girl?" Caroline said in disbelief.
"Yes, Hayley. She's not that bad, Caroline. Not after you get to know her." Rebekah smiled, trying to zip the last suitcase that they packed.
"Just like you," Caroline whispered very softly.
"Sorry didn't quite catch that. I beg your pardon?" Rebekah said and turned around.
"Nah, it's fine, it was nothing." She smiled and went to help with the zipping.
"FINALLY!" Rebekah smiled, and wiped her 'sweat' melodramatically.
She stood up, and changed her clothes.
When they were ready, they bid farewell to Sheriff Forbes and then sat at the porch waiting for Elijah and Stefan to come.
Stefan came up to them.
"Care, Beks, are you guys ready?" He smiled.
"Yeah, let's get the suitcases in the SUV. We don't wanna be late for our flight." Caroline said and started to help Elijah with their luggage.
After that was done, they all piled into the SUV and drove to the airport.
After immigration and all those stuff, they went to get Starbucks.
Which apparently, was not familiar to any of the originals, nor Davina.
"Bekah, what are you gonna get?" Stefan and Caroline asked at the same time, turning to her.
"I've never had anything here before." She said plainly with a blank face.
Stefan and Caroline felt an amount of pity for her. Well it wasn't her fault she was kept locked in a coffin, daggered for almost a century.
Rebekah frowned, not knowing whatever a 'frappucino' is.
"Lij, what's a frappucino?" She asked, furrowing her eyebrows.
" I don't know, little sister, but I think I'm not getting anything. Is there anything you want, Rebekah? Here, take some money." Elijah smiled and shoved her a couple of bucks.
"There's no need Lijah," She complained but Elijah insisted.
"It's okay, sister. Kol and I shall be waitng outside." He said and walked away.
"So, Bekah, have you decided what you want yet?" Caroline smiled.
"What are you getting?" She asked back.
"A Vanilla frap and Stefan's getting his usual Caramel Latté." Caroline smiled.
"Well.. I think I'm just gonna get a Green Tea latte, whatever that is." She smiled confidently and listened to Caroline's order.
"One green tea latte, one vanilla frap, and one caramel latte." She said at the barista, who was a guy.
He looked at Rebekah, and smiled charmingly.
Stefan acknowledging this, became upset.
Wait. Why is he even mad? He shrugged the thought off and paid.
When they got their orders, their names were each written at the back. 'Caroline' 'Stefan' and 'You are beautiful'.
Rebekah's said 'You are beautiful.' Her eyes widened and she blushed crimson pink.
She gave the barista one last smile and then she walked away. He was pretty cute, she thought and giggled.
Stefan felt his blood boil. He didn't know why.
As soon as they got out, Rebekah took a sip from her drink.
"This is actually pretty good. Do they have this in New Orleans?" She asked.
"We'll see later, Rebekah." Elijah said and led the way.
When Rebekah wasn't looking, Kol sneaked up to her and snatched her drink.
"Tasty," He said, sipping the beverage.
"Give me back my drink, Kol." She giggled.
"Who wrote this, Rebekah?" Elijah asked, staring at the back of her Starbuck's cup.
"The barista, why?" She said.
"Nothing you should be worried about," Elijah said.
Davina giggled and then went back to talking to Kol.
Caroline smiled at the thought and walked away.
"Stefan!" Rebekah exclaimed, giggling when he took a sip from her drink.
"Here, you can try mine." He laughed and Rebekah gladly took a sip from his drink.
"Not bad," She said. They all quickly finished their drinks and threw the cups away.
But none knew, that Rebekah actually washed the cup and kept it.
They boarded in first class, and waited until take-off.
The door to the palace creaked open. Elijah entered, followed by Rebekah and the others.
Once they were all in, Elijah showed them their rooms.
Caroline's was in the middle of someone else's room and Rebekah's, Stefan's was next to Rebekah's. Kol's room was beside Elijah's, while Davina's room was next to Hayley's which was next to Klaus'.
As Caroline was about to go into her room, a door cracked open.
"What's going on Elijah…" Klaus appeared, shirtless, revealing his oh so good looking body.
Klaus stopped talking when he saw Caroline.
He stared in awe, and apparently so did she, admiring his body.
"You're moving in?" He asked.
"Yes, and only for a while." She said then shut the door in his face.
Klaus surprisingly smiled, and got back into his own room.
Not long later, the maids came up to call them all down for lunch.
"Mr and Ms Mikaelson, your lunch is ready." She informed Rebekah and Kol, who were casually chatting in Rebekah's room.
Rebekah nodded. "Thank you, Serafine."
"Is there anything else I can help you with?" She asked the both of them.
"No, thank you, you may go." Rebekah smiled and she exited the room.
"Come on, Kol. Proper attire, Elijah will not be pleased when he sees you in that." Rebekah warned.
Kol nodded, and flashed to his room to change.
After Rebekah was done, she went to Caroline's room.
"Caroline, are you ready?" She asked and Caroline nodded.
"Sure thing." She giggled and they both walked down together.
"Rebekaaaaah!" A squeal was heard all the way downstairs. Caroline could not be anymore surprised. Guess who's here. Hayley. Perfect.
"Rebekah I just- Whoa." She said, utterly surprised by Caroline's presence.
"Hello Hayley." Caroline said quietly and was quickly greeted back by the werewolf.
"Girls!" Elijah called.
"Coming, Lij!" Rebekah said and they all walked into the dining room.
Caroline stood in awe as she took in the amazing décor.
She sat next to Rebekah, Hayley on the other side, and Davina sitting across them.
The maids sorted out the appetizers, which today, was Tuna-Apple mini melts and grilled salmon.
Caroline kindly thanked the maids, and whispered to Rebekah.
"You eat like this everyday?" She asked.
"Yeah. Why? And by the way, we still have the main courses." Rebekah smiled innocently.
Caroline's jaw dropped.
Rebekah chuckled.
After finishing, they were served the main course, which was beef tenderloin steak with barbeque sauce, accompanied with a mized variety of corns, peas, and carrots.
"Caroline, Stefan, for how long will you be staying here?" Klaus asked.
"We don't know yet," Caroline replied, taking a bite out of her food.
Klaus nodded, understanding.
They continued eating in silence until they all finished.
Little did Caroline know, that there was still more to come.
She gaped when the desserts came. Red-Velvet Brownies, accompanied with a strawberry tart.
They tasted delicious. Like beyond anything that she has ever tasted.
"Nik, did you make these?" Rebekah asked, furrowing her eyebrows.
"Indeed I did sister." He smiled arrogantly.
"Wait, you cook?" Stefan asked and Klaus nodded.
"Wow." Caroline giggled.
After they finished, they were all sent back to their rooms.
Hayley pulled Rebekah to her room.
"What?" Rebekah asked.
"Why is she here?" Hayley shrieked.
"Hayley, please-" Rebekah tried to explain.
"No- Rebekah," Hayley tried to reason, but failed.
"Caroline is our only hope, of getting our old Nik back." Rebekah said, and then flashed out of the room. Hayley sighed, slumping back into her couch.
It was nearly 3 pm, and Caroline was sitting on the bed, wondering what they had called her for. She had been asked for her help, but she never initially knew what they actually asking her to do.
She sighed, continuing to unpack her clothes.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in," Caroline smiled and turned to the door.
"Miss Forbes, Mr Mikaelson has called you to join him for tea at the grand balcony." Serafine smiled, referring to Klaus.
"Please put on this dress that he has picked out, and let me help you with it." She smiled.
It was an aquamarine blue dress, with a skirt that landed right above her knee.
(To see Caroline's dress, go here - )
"It's beautiful, Ms Forbes. Excuse me, I need to go help the other ladies with household chores," Serafine smiled and exited the room.
Caroline nodded, and then she slipped out of her room.
She then idiotically realized that she had no idea where the Grand balcony was.
She kept circling around, until she bumped into Davina.
"Hey, Davina. Do you know where the Grand Balcony is?" Caroline asked.
"Hey Caroline. Sure, let me show you the way. I was just taking little Celine to tea." She smiled.
"Who's Celine?" Caroline asked.
"You didn't know?" Davina said, revealing the girl who was holding her hand.
She was maybe about 4 years old.
"What's your name little girl?" Caroline bent down and smiled.
"Nice to meet you. My name is Victoria Nicole Celine Azalea Mikaelson," She said gracefully.
Caroline's eyes widened at the last name, 'Mikaelson'.
"Mikaelson? Who's little girl is she-" Before she could finish, Celine was running towards a man.
"Mommy! Daddy!" She yelped, giggling as Klaus and Hayley appeared.
Caroline was in a loss for words. She gaped, her mouth hanging open.
"Oh. My God. Klaus is a father?" She whispered.
