Chapter 19

A/N: This is an AU story for the vampire diaries. I do not own the vampire dairies.

"What's his problem now?" Hayley asked Elijah who stood in the kitchen with her. Elijah sighed.

"It seems that Laelia got to Caroline, she left Niklaus with quite a confession. She rejected Nikalus once again." Elijah said.

"Again? She is so fickle." Elijah shook her head.

"I don't think she meant it. I had talked to her early she had been worried that she would have hurt Niklaus, and I heard Davina mention that she saw a vision that she would betray her. The fear got to her, and I think she didn't want to have face that idea so in return she ended the relationship to protect him." Hayley glanced at Klaus who was resorting to drinking his sorrows away. Elijah had gone to comfort him again but this time Klaus just decided to leave. He wasn't in the mood for help from Elijah.

Back in Mystic Falls, Caroline settled back in her bedroom at home. Her mother wasn't home not surprising as always or at least then. Because right then her mother came through the door. Her mother hugged her and they made dinner together and ate. When Caroline finally went to her bedroom and shut the door the mask fell off, the smiling happy girl had her true face back on. Tears slide down her face, as she slide down against the door and let them fall. Her heart ached in pain. She longed to be in 'his' arms she wanted and needed to be close to him. But she knew that would be at a price, a price that she wouldn't risk. The worse part that she regretted was her words towards him. She had gone back to using hostility to make him let her go. A few days later and Caroline still didn't want to deal with anyone. Stefan had tried calling her a few times to which Caroline ignored and rolled over on her bed. She hadn't been this heartbroken before. Finally the door crashed down and she yelped and turned to find Stefan standing there. He glared at her.

"Any reason you have been avoiding my calls." She glared at him before throwing herself under the covers.

"Go away, I don't want to see anyone." She snapped. Stefan rolled his eyes and grasped the covers shoving them down. "Leave me alone! Please."

"Caroline what happened? You look sad."

"I'm heartbroken…" Stefan's eyes widened.

"He's dead, I'll call Enzo. For once he would come in handy for that."

"No, Klaus didn't break my heart. I did." He stared at her.

"What?"

"I broke up with Klaus."

"Why? What did he do?"

"Why do you assume he did something?"

"Just kind of something that I could see coming," Stefan muttered.

"I broke up with him, because of what a witch said."

"What did this witch say?"

"She said that I would betray him, and another witch confirmed it. I couldn't be the one to betray him Stefan. I knew the only way that I could save him was to end it." She said staring at the ceiling with tears streaming down her cheeks.

"And now you're heartbroken,"

"Because I broke his heart, and my own in the process. I miss him Stefan, do you how much it has taken me to not even call him, or give in and return to plead with him to take me back." She shook her head.

"You really care about Klaus," She nodded.

"I'm miserable, I haven't felt this bad since my father left."

"You love him don't you?" Caroline's eyes widened and she looked at Stefan.

Klaus was sitting at a bar, ignoring anyone and everyone. It was good thing that people knew not to bother him or they would have their heart ripped out of their chest.

"Klaus," Klaus groaned. So someone did want their heart ripped out.

"Genevieve if you know what's good for you, I suggest you leave before I decide to take that witch heart out of you." He muttered. She smiled at him.

"Oh, Klaus you actually look depressed." Klaus gave her a look.

"More like hell," She shrugged.

"You know I think whatever it is, I can help you with. I could make you feel better and give you a good time." She slides her hand down his arm seductively. She smirked. Klaus considered it at first, only because he wanted to take his mind off of Caroline. But the thought of sleeping with the witch, didn't appeal to him. He wanted and always would wish to have Caroline. Even if now, he probably had lost his chance. Klaus shook his head.

"I have better things to do then be around some witch." He turned away. She glared at him.

"You're an idiot to refuse me." She snapped.

"Find another who would be more than happy. But I won't ever be."

"Ass," She turns away only to stab him in the back with the witches blade. He cries out in pain. And falls to the ground unconscious. She shook her head.

"Well done Genevieve. I knew you would see things my way." Celeste said. Camille stared at them as they dragged the original hybrids body away. Camille knew the reason they were able to get to him off guard was because of the girl. Caroline Forbes. She knew what she had to do.

Caroline stared at the wall of the Salvatore boarding house. Damon and Elena were arguing ignoring Caroline's presence. Stefan was dealing with Enzo who was trying to tell him that it wasn't his fault that Damon went all ripper mode on them.

"Hey Caroline," Caroline turned to Bonnie.

"Hi Bonnie,"

"Are you ok?" Caroline shook her head. "Heartbroken?" Caroline nodded. She could always read her so well. "Klaus,"

"I broke his heart. But I didn't want to. I was doing it to protect him."

"I'm sorry,"

"Your actually not mad at me for being with him most of the time and dating him?" She asked.

"No, I realized that as long as he would make you happy, and he didn't hurt you I would accept it. Care, why would you break up with at all even if it was an accident that you would betray him?" Caroline shook her head.

"It's a long story." There was knock on the door that only Caroling and Bonnie could hear since the others were absolve with each other. Caroline answered the door and gasped. "Camille?"

"You know her?" Bonnie asked.

"She was the bartender in New Orleans, she gave me a drink and good advice." She said. "Come in," Camille looked at Caroline with worry.

"Caroline, you have to come back to New Orleans. It's Klaus."

"What's wrong, he destroy the mansion again? Or hurt someone?" Camille shook her head.

"No, Genevieve hated that he rejected her even when he vulnerable since you dumped him. She's working with Celeste, and they have him." Caroline's eyes widened.

"What?"

"Caroline you have to come back to save him. I don't think he cares anymore either that or he will destroy the city now." Caroline glanced at Bonnie.

Klaus groaned and found himself in a room once again. He could feel the pain of the witches weapon inside of him.

"Finally awake sweetie aren't we?" Klaus glanced to Genevieve.

"Bitch," He moved to kill her but was restrained by the chains that bound his arms and legs.

"Don't do that you will hurt yourself."

"You broke the deal." She nodded.

"I did because I was offerered a better one. Celeste would kill me for power and now you as well so that we can be together on the Other Side. Oh don't worry she is finding a way how to unlink you from the others of your blood line so that you won't have to see that pesky blonde vampire again. Your siblings will be joining us as well." Klaus glared at her. The witch was delusional. He had no idea how long he had been out, but Genevieve had been assigned to make his life a living hell.

"Celeste," Genevieve and Celeste looked up at the warlock John who shoved a blonde girl into the room. "Look who I found."

"Caroline Forbes very brave to come here. For you love of your life correct." Celeste said.

"He's my love." Genevieve protested. If Klaus wasn't in so much pain he would have said an insult or two and try to look for Caroline. Caroline knew that she had made a stupid mistake but she had to try. If she could just get Klaus out or at least drink some blood or something then they could get out. John chained her up near Klaus. It angered her to see the way Klaus was in, she wanted to rip them apart despite that she wasn't the one to wish to kill. Celeste and Genevieve left with the white oak stake to finish it up.

"Klaus," Caroline said. Klaus shook his head. "Klaus, you need to listen to me, we have to work together to get out of here."

"What are you doing here Caroline?"

"I came back." She said.

"Why?"

"Because I care about you, you idiot." She snapped. Klaus looked away. She bit her lip.

"She was right," Caroline looked up at him. "You did betray me." Caroline finally realized it. She swallowed hard and nodded.

"I betrayed you by leaving, if I had stayed maybe none of this would have happened." Klaus sighed.

"Even if you had, it would have been by force. You don't feel the same way." She shook her head.

"No, Klaus it's not. Please just listened to me right now. We need to get out of here." Celeste and Genevieve returned with the stake, Celeste held the stake close to his chest. "Klaus…I lied…what I said that night it wasn't true…just-please- She shook her head. There was growl and Klaus opened his eyes, they were golden showing the hybrid in him. Celeste gasped, in the next second Klaus tugged on the chains, they shook the wall slightly before they broke and in a flash Klaus grasped the stake and shoved Celeste against the wall. Genevieve shrieked, but she wasn't going anywhere because she was close to Caroline, Caroline used as much strength as she could muster to break the chains and throw them around her neck before tugging her back and this time snapping her neck. Klaus stabbed Celeste with the stake and she gasped before collapsing to the floor dead. Klaus turned back around to Caroline who stood there for a moment before moving to him. He couldn't stop himself despite that she didn't feel the same way anymore from hugging her. To which she hugged him back.

"Let's get you out of here."

Back at the mansion, Caroline had filled in Klaus on the plan that originally Elijah had thought of, but apparently they were dealing with Celeste's minions. They were still out it seemed. Klaus turned away from her entering his bedroom ignoring her.

"Why are you still here Caroline? You can leave now, you have successful helped stop Celeste." He snapped.

"Klaus, I'm sorry. I was scared. That's why I left."

"I'm not sure if I believe you this time Caroline. Just please go." She shook her head.

"I can't," She said.

"Caroline, just leave-

"I can't! Because…" Klaus shook his head and turned away from her deciding to perhaps call Elijah and find out where he was. "I love you," Klaus felt his whole body freeze. He turned back to her and looked into her eyes. And for once Klaus knew that it was the truth.

Notes: So here is another chapter. What do you think? Caroline finally admitted her feelings in the end. She loves Klaus. Celeste is dead along with Genevieve. Caroline confided to Stefan. Review please.
