Chapter 5
A/N: This is an AU story for the vampire diaries. I do not own the vampire dairies.
Caroline watched as Elijah brought Klaus into the room and laid him down on the bed. He had removed his shirt and Caroline could see the red veins spreading once again in his chest. Caroline swallowed hard and looked at Elijah.
"I am going to need your help Caroline." She nodded. "I need you to try an soothe him, or distract him." Caroline moved to Klaus not really knowing what she should do as Elijah had grabbed a knife. She flinched. Klaus was already coming to. Klaus opened his eyes to reveal Caroline. She looked like goddess to him, of all women he had never encountered one like her in his entire life. Her hair was in golden curls caressing the sides of her face. Her blue green eyes were like as if they had been created from the sea. In them though was filled with worry. He was confused before he felt the stab in his abdomen. He grunted and cried out in pain. Caroline didn't know what to do, but as if on instinct she grabbed his hand that was clenched in a fist. It was probably not wise since he was using his full strength. He gritted his teeth in pain. Caroline didn't dare watch Elijah cut the witch knife out of him. It only made her queasy so she tried to focus on Klaus. Hopefully making it less painful. Klaus was in hell, he could feel the knife cutting through his body to reach for the witch knife. But with the knife inside of him, it made it much more painful. Despite that he was in hell, he felt a hand in his. He glanced to Caroline still gritting his teeth. She gave him a small smile back. Caroline pressed her other hand into his cheek trying to keep his eyes focused on her. To try and distract him from the pain. It seemed to help Klaus slightly before Elijah gripped the knife and ripped it from him. Klaus cried out in agony making Caroline wince slightly as she moved to sit on the bed and keep soothing his face. It had gotten to a point where both Klaus and Caroline had forgot that Elijah was in the room. Klaus was healing and enjoying the touch of Caroline's hands caressing his face keeping him from looking at anything but her. Elijah had noticed how his brother was healing but he could only stare at Caroline. He did not know what this woman had over his brother, but he had never seen his brother look at a woman like the way he was looking at her. Elijah wiped his hands of the blood and placed the witch's knife on the table. His brother was actually healed now with some blood on him. Caroline finally snapped out of his gaze and glanced at Elijah who nodded. Caroline removed her hands from his face, instantly regretting them though. Klaus was missing her touch already. What had this woman done to him? Caroline exited the room and Elijah turned to his brother as he started to get up.
"I will leave you to clean yourself up brother." He said. Klaus could only nod. His mind still occupied by the blonde vampire. Klaus finally realized that Rebekah had escaped thanks to Elijah. Klaus was still slightly weak but he could still get up and speak.
"You will pay for this, as will she." Elijah swallowed hard and left the room knowing that his brother's threat was true. But Elijah couldn't let this happen, he had to figure out some way to get Rebekah out of town. He would not let his brother kill their sister. So he needed at distraction. He turned to find Caroline gazing at a portrait of their family.
"Miss Forbes," She turned to him.
"You can call me Caroline," She said. He nodded. He glanced to the door that led to Klaus's room. He nodded to the his study wanting her to follow. He shut the doors behind them.
"The room is spelled, we can speak freely. I need you to do me another favor Caroline if you don't mind." She waited to hear what he wanted her to do. "I need you to try and calm Niklaus down or at least distract him. I need to help my sister. Niklaus is holding a grudge against her right now you could say." She swallowed hard and thought about this. She would have to keep Klaus busy for how long though. Before he knew that she was distracting. "At least for today, please." Caroline sighed.
"Ok, I can't guarantee on how long I can keep him distracted." Elijah smiled to her.
"Thank you, just keep him calm. Don't give him any thoughts of yesterday or Rebekah or Marcel. Just other things." She nodded before they exited the room right when Klaus had walked out of his. He was dressed in a grey Henley and a leather jacket. He glared at Elijah who nodded walked away leaving Caroline and Klaus in the same room. She bit her lip not knowing what to say. She just had to keep his thoughts off Rebekah.
"Hi…" She said. Klaus looked at her. They hadn't had a chance to really speak much especially after the last time they saw each other. When she had admitted her feelings for him. She remembered it perfectly, she had only planned on confessing her feelings for him. But she had not planned on kissing him, she had wanted to though, or sleeping with him. She felt a blush surfacing on her cheeks and shook her head.
"Hello love," He said. God, now he was making her unable to control her feelings for him. She didn't like when she didn't have control it only made her more neurotic. She heard her stomach grumble, and realized she hadn't had any blood this morning. But not also that she didn't know what day it was, or how long she hadn't had blood. But if felt more than a day. "Hungry?"
Stefan was beginning to get worried he hadn't heard from Caroline in a while. She didn't come back, but had thought she might be with her mother. He would have understood since basically everyone was shutting her out, except for him, and Matt. Damon was talking to her, but it was much of nice words. He shook his head. He hated how everyone was treating Caroline, he slept with Rebekah, so had Matt. Which was quite weird to actually think about. There was a knock at his door. He raised an eyebrow before answering it. He groaned and glared at him. He folded his arms.
"What do you want?" He demanded.
"Nothing, just came to see my best friend's brother. Damon is being all lovey dovey with the Gilbert girl. So I thought you might be more entertaining, what are you doing anyway mate?" He asked.
"I am looking for Caroline, for your information. You wouldn't have seen her have you?" Enzo shrugged.
"I haven't seen the blonde Barbie just heard that she had a thing for men with British accents." Stefan glared at him. "Touchy, you don't have a thing for blonde girl do you?" Stefan rolled his eyes and shook his head.
"No she is my best friend, like a sister to me." Enzo smirked.
"Shame, she looks like such a pretty little thing. Being that feisty though, she must be good in bed." Stefan growled at him and Enzo held up his hands in surrender. "Well, have you tried contacting any of your pesky friends yet?" Stefan shook his head.
"I don't think I can get them to help right now. With the Travelers and Augustine causing too much trouble. I am going to have to have to get help from an old friend."
"Me?"
"You're not a friend."
"You wound me,"
"I am talking about Briana, she is a witch. She lives in New York, I need to go." He said grabbing his jacket.
"I'll come with you, New York was always fun." Stefan rolled his eyes.
"I don't have much of a choice do I?" He asked. Enzo smirked and shook his head.
"Not a chance ripper,"
