"When were you going to tell me?" I ask quietly.

"Well, Caroline it is apart of my past that I-" Klaus starts.

"Not about that."

"Then about what?"

"That Tyler knows about us."


Klaus's eyes flicker up to meet mine and he freezes. He puts his hands on top of the table and starts playing with his fingers. I can tell he was nervous and didn't expect me to know about Tyler. "Would ask you the same thing, did he tell anyone?" Suddenly Klaus's eyes grow darker, "Did he threaten you? If he did I swear I will get him expelled." Klaus crumbles a napkin and looks at me waiting for an answer.

"He went to my house, and asked if I was going on a date with you." I exclaim looking at Klaus frustrated, now is not the time to be all overprotective of me. "Why would he threaten me?" I ask, confused even more, "Klaus, how did he find out about us?" I ask slowly, and grab his hand for comfort.

"It was the first time you were at my apartment, when he came over too." Klaus squeezes my hands lightly, "When you left early. Remember when I walked you to the elevator?" Klaus asks making eye contact with me.

I nod my head, "Yeah, I kissed you.. he saw that, didn't he?" I ask nervously and slightly embarrassed.

"Yeah, he won't tell anyone though, so don't need to worry about that." Klaus says looking down in disappointment

"And how could you be so sure?" I say glaring at him, "Tyler hates me... we didn't end our relationship very well. I'm sure he is figuring out different ways he can torture me until he finally tells!" Then the reality hits me like a brick of walls. I could loose Klaus because I was careless.

I start blinking a lot, trying not to cry in front of Klaus. "No, love he won't and- oh bloody hell might as well tell you." Klaus says and sighs, "He confronted me about this topic. He got caught drinking on campus, and told me to take it off his record. I did. Now he won't tell anyone."

"Klaus!" I say, as my eyes widen. I was about to be really mad at Klaus but then I suddenly feel bad for him. He was black mailed by a student of his because of me. I put my hand to my mouth. "He practically blackmailed you!" I exclaim mad, not at Klaus, but at Tyler. He was always a dick, how did I even date him? He never took me on dates and always tried to get me in his bed. I never gave into him, my pride is very important to me. Besides I never loved him. He never loved me. I'm not sure if I love Klaus, but I sure as hell want to find out.

"It's in the past sweetheart. Let's just move on from it." Klaus say while he kisses my forehead lightly.

"But Klaus.." I whine. He rolls his eyes and whispers, "Love let it go."

I nod my head and kiss Klaus on the lips.


I walk into school, and sigh. It's a Monday morning and I just like any other teenager hates Monday mornings. I walk into Klaus's room to find he isn't there. I shrug it off and put my back pack on the hook he put on the wall for me. I grab the stuff I will need for class today.

I walk up to the front of his classroom and I sit in my seat and wait for the rest of the class to start filing in. With them Klaus walks in with a smirk on his face. He looks around to make sure nobody is looking, which nobody is because everybody only minds themselves, he sends my a sweet smile and I return it and blush. He breaks our eye contact and clears his throat, causing the whole class to stop what they were doing and to look at him. A few popular girls role their eyes and it angry's me seeing how people don't appreciate what he does for them. He could easily be making a living off of his brother, Elijah's, money yet he wakes up early to teach them stuff that they aren't grateful for.

"Hello class, today will be special. As you know it will be presenting your projects that you should have finished last week." Klaus say and everyone grunts. I have too admit I'm not happy either, even though Klaus sneaked into my house last night to help me finish it, because I waited til the last minute and didn't know what I was doing. "Do I have any volunteers?" He asks looking disappointed when nobody raised their hand.

Someone from the back of the classroom shouted, "Why don't we just not present it?" Everyone started nodding their head in agreement

"No, but since you seem eager to get it over with why don't you come up here and go first?" Klaus says while smirking. I silently cheer for him for not letting the class clown stomp all over him.

This makes everybody in the classroom laugh and point at the guy who shouted out earlier. I figured his name was Patrick, because that's what someone from the back of the room shouted.

"Well, hello class. My name is Patrick, and I'm gay." He says and the whole class starts laughing. He bows down and walks to the back of the classroom.

I look up to Klaus and I can tell he is really annoyed and just wants the day to be over with. "I hope you're ready for a zero and prepared to come here next semester." Klaus says while frowning, but then he smirks when he says, "Who's next?"

The whole class seems to shift under the seats a little bit. The all look down and pray that they don't get called on.

"Elena Gilbert, your poster seems promising, care to present next." Elena's face flushes to a light pink before nods her head and walks to the front of the room with poster. She looks nervous and looks to Klaus with worried eyes. He gives her a reassuring smile and she start speaking about the dictators of WWII.

I can't help but feel a little jealous, I mean she always gets the boys and what would make Klaus any different? Once she's done Klaus says, "Well, now that is what I call a project, great job Ms. Gilbert." Elena nods her head then walks to her seat near the back of the room.

The rest of class we all present including me. I managed to remember what Klaus told me to say. He kept on glancing at me while other people presented, like making a weird face to make me laugh or pretend to kill himself out of boredom.

Once class was over everyone left the room and I was alone with Klaus. I walked up behind him and out my arms on the back of his shoulders. "You know you're going to be late to your next class, again."

I shrug, "I'd rather be here with you." He turns completely around and kisses my mouth and shoves me lightly towards the door.

"I'd rather you be here too but I've got a class coming and you have a class you need to be at. I'm see you tonight at my apartment?" Klaus smirks while I frown.

"Yeah, I'll be there." He nods his head and I walk out of his classroom.

It was then when I noticed my dad in the front office. I know I should get to class, that's the only smart thing to do, but i want to know why my dad came all the way back here.

I walk to the office and I go to the front desk. "Hey, aren't you supposed to be in class?" The office lady asks. I pull out one of the infinite passes I have for the nurse that Klaus made me. The office lady examines them and nods her head. "I assume you know where the nurses office is?"

I nod my head and start walking to the nurses office. But once I'm out of sight I turn and walk to where my dad is, in the principles office. I put my head up against the glass and try my best to listen in on their conversation.

"So when did you decide you wanted to be a principle?" Some one asks, I can tell that it is Mr. Horan asks.

"Well, I decided when Caroline was very little, I knew I loved kids. But then I realized when she got older, that I really liked teenagers. So when I saw that you were retiring I knew I wanted to do it. I have the right degree and everything." This voice is my dad. Is he really volunteering to be a principle?

"Well, you have an excellent education and a great record, I will give you a call."

"Great."

Shit.
