She was walking in a large hallway. It was warm, but dark outside. The halls were lit by candlelight and the moon was full, shining through the window. There was a scream from outside, and Caroline followed the sound to a tall window. Below her, she could see people running in all directions, there was a wolf standing in the middle of the courtyard. He was large, and his black fur contrasted his crimson, beady eyes. He stood with a strong posture in front of…Caroline. She watches herself walk toward him without fear. As she got closer and knelt beside him, his fur turned to chestnut and the red tint in his eyes turned to a soft sapphire-like hue. Her touch ignited a change in him, and he fell to the ground as a naked man, but Caroline couldn't quite make out who it was. She watched herself hold him from above, everyone else gone from fear, when she realizes who it is…

"Klaus," Caroline spoke softly just before jolting up in bed, feeling Klaus holding her, looking at her with furrowed brows and concern in his eyes.

"Are you alright? You were saying my name and gripping my arm while you slept," Caroline looked at him and calmed herself down. She fell back onto the pillows and took a deep breath,

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just had a weird dream," Klaus was looking down at her, but moved to lay behind her and she instinctively set herself against him, laying her head against his bare chest.

"Well," he brought his hand to gold hers and used the other to stroke her silky blonde hair away from her face. "I hope it didn't involve my demise," he smiled, but she remained silent. When he noticed her melancholy temperament, he lost his smile. He was scared. She probably regretted ever staying with him, and even though it had been a couple weeks now, things between them were fragile and, of course, secret. He hadn't done anything to harm her or anyone in Mystic Falls for that matter, and his family was adjusting well. It made him start to imagine that maybe someday he could acquit himself and at least some of the people in this town could accept him. He could turn on his sweet, charming side if they would let him. It's not as if he enjoyed being a sadistic killer, he loved laying with Caroline in the mornings and treating her like the most beautiful thing he'd ever set his eyes on. And she was. Even thinking about her made a gigantic smile form on his lips, and he couldn't take her solemn mood any longer. He tried to cheer her up, kissing her ear, then her neck, and making her giggle when he spread quick kisses all over her face. She tried to turn her face away from him, but he followed her with sweet intent. Her eyes were closed and she caught his face in her hands and pulled his lips to hers, sending the weirdest sensation through his abdomen. She sighed and deepened the kiss, angling her neck just right so that she could reach him in back of her. After a moment she turned around onto his lap and wrapped her legs around him. He pulled away from the kiss and held her face in his slightly-rough but always gentle hands. "I hate to see you so saddened, love," Caroline's face lost its light when she realized he could always see right through her, and she took his hands from hers, entangling their fingers beside her before kissing him again.

"I'm not," she turned on her side and slunk down into the blankets again, covering her face with the large duvet on Klaus' bed. "I'm just…a little tired, I guess." She knew that he could easily see that there was more to it, but appreciated that he didn't persist.

"Alright, darling," he sunk down in the bed next to her and turned onto his stomach with his hands on either side of her, just watching her breathe. He knew she would hold the blankets by her eyes, so he pulled them from the side of her and revealed her flat, soft stomach.

"Klaus!" Caroline resisted but she was smiling, all that Klaus needed as encouragement, "it's cold," She let go of the blanket, knowing that there was no use trying to cover herself up, and she was glad she didn't put up a fight once he started placing kisses on her stomach. The touch of his lips sent tingles all over her body, and she couldn't help but keep her smile when he touched her like this and made her feel like she was a princess.

"I'll keep you warm," Klaus said, moving his kisses up until he was at her lips and his warm body was against hers, his hands feeling around. Losing the blanket didn't matter since once he touched her, she could practically feel the sparks around them, and even if she were cold she wouldn't care. She kissed him back and wrapped her arms around him as he pulled the blanket back over both of them and tangled himself with her, laughing as they moved underneath the sheets.

Caroline walked out of the bathroom in her lingerie and a towel over her head and she quickly realized that she didn't have anything else to wear. She couldn't even find her shirt anymore, and she wasn't about to wear the same thing three days in a row. As she stepped out, she saw Klaus laying in his bed, his eyes roaming over her body with that same smirk of his starting to form.

"Well don't you look lovely," he remarked, sitting in bed like a king as she looked around for her shirt.

"Klaus, I'm not wearing anything," she tried not to laugh at his attempts to get her back in bed with him, something that he never tired of. Klaus suddenly was out of bed and in front of her, kissing her neck,

"And you look better than ever," he teased, but she pushed him away with a small grin, knowing that if she let him have his way with her like this every time, she would never leave his room. He knew that he could easily continue, but he enjoyed this fiery side of her, and it amused him to see her strong and confident.

"I'll have to get out of this room at some point, Klaus," she continued to look around, realizing that she had lost her jeans too. It was like once she was out of her clothes everything just burst into flames. "Have you seen, like, any of my clothes?" Klaus ignored her and moved behind her, instead.

"Why leave, we were having such a great time," he said, kissing her neck again and moving his arms to wrap around her waist, enjoying that he could make her smile so easily.

"Unless we want to die of thirst and start a search and rescue mission, I should probably explain where I've been for the past three days," she had turned around, stopping his mouth from influencing her any longer.

But it didn't work.

"I'll gladly die of thirst to spend more time with you, sweetheart," Caroline laughed at this, thoroughly entertained by his constant flirting.

"Klaus, no." She left him behind her and checked around the bed for anything that she was wearing, "Where are my clothes?" she was beyond confused at this point, but Klaus hurriedly appeared in front of her, jeans and blouse in hand.

"Fine. But I insist that if we go out, I am taking you somewhere decent," she was beaming, not sure whether it was due to the fact that he hid her clothes from her or that he used "we" in that sentence.

"Oh, and who said that you're invited to come along?" She played with him, taking her clothes and setting them down, hardly paying any attention to them anymore. Klaus wasn't as amused as she, and when she saw this, she sighed and gave in. "Alright, one more night. Then I have to go see my friends and my mom, they're probably ready to pronounce me dead by now," Klaus didn't utter a word, he only grabbed her clothes from the bed and tossed them to the side as he wrapped his arms around her and started to kiss her again, never fading in passion. Caroline quickly let herself get caught up in his delicious kisses, and before she knew it he had tumbled back onto the bed with her, his hands exploring her body once again. "What about this fancy date we have, tonight?" she asked as he unhooked her bra and continued to kiss her. His hands were ready to pull off her underwear in one deft move, and he was hungrily eyeing her body, "we've still got plenty of time," he answered, tearing her underwear off of her body.

Caroline didn't realize that she had slept; she was always pretty tired after Klaus. She woke up by the sound of an opening door, and Klaus walked in with two bags in his hand, making her more curious by the moment. "And what is all this?" she asked, eyeing him as he set the bags down and moved to her side of the bed to kiss her.

"First of all, good evening," he lingered over her for a few seconds before moving back to the shopping bags, "Secondly, I considered your current state of dress and figured you were probably in need of some new attire,"

"Probably, with you ripping off my underwear and all," he smiled at his handiwork, barely upset that he ruined such a lovely piece of such small lingerie.

"Well perhaps you'll fancy this just as much," he pulled out some basic, but tight jeans and a light blue top, making her glad that he had tried to match her style with her favorite color, but also surprising her that he even knew that. Then he smiled and tossed her the pink Victoria Secret bag, crossing his arms and awaiting her reaction.

"Oh no," she said, pulling away the tissue paper and first pulling out a black lace bra. "Okay, not bad," she said, getting a little bit more nervous when he signaled for her to keep unwrapping. She pulled out a matching black lace thong and laughed, she had never seen something so small, "you've got to be joking," He appreciated the smile on her face, but brought forth another bag from behind him and handed it to her,

"Yes, well I knew it was a stretch, so I asked the woman there to grab a few things a bit less…provocative," Caroline opened the bag and saw some sexy, but actually cute and conservative underwear. She slipped it on under the covers along with the bra and moved across the bed to peck him on the lips.

"Thanks, these are just right," they smiled, and she grabbed her clothes to get up and change, but he stopped her,

"Well wait just one moment, there's more, darling," she turned and saw him holding a small blue and white bag with a sincere smile. She walked over to him and saw beside him on the bed, opening the bag and bringing out a blue box about the size of book. She looked at him sarcastically,

"I hope you know I can't be bought with these gifts," she said, playing around and making him smile just a little bit,

"Oh, don't be a buzz kill," he said, and she turned back to the box. When she removed the ribbon and opened the box, she was speechless. In front of her were the most beautiful diamond earrings and a matching necklace from Swarovski. She stared at them, tears almost forming in her eyes when she thought of how no one had ever done anything like this for her before. They were exactly the kind that she had always wanted as a child, and Klaus, the man that she had least expected, was the one to go all out for her. "So? How are they? Too predictable?" He seemed nervous. Klaus, actually nervous. Caroline didn't know what to say, she simply turned to him and wrapped her arms around her neck, setting the jewelry down beside her and gave him her best kiss yet. He was really starting to win her over. She pulled away, her eyes still closed and a smile playing on her lips, "I'll assume that is a yes," he joked, kissing her again.

"Would you?" she picked the box back up and held the necklace out to him. He took it from her and lightly touched her neck as he clipped it into place. She had never been happier, and she couldn't almost couldn't contain her excitement as she practically skipped to the bathroom to get ready for a night with Klaus that she was sure she would never forget.

Good? I hope I'm not losing any particularly important aspects here haha, anyway thanks for reading! Another chapter will be up tonight! :D
