"It's not true Klaus." I debate weather I should say what I'm thinking, and I go for it, "I love you Klaus, and I wouldn't love someone who was worthless, don't think like that."

His eyes widen when I say I love him. But I realized, I really do love Klaus and I know I want t be with him for a long, long time. He looks down, almost embarrassed.

I look down too, embarrassed that he didn't say it back. Klaus uses his pointer finger up to lift my chin so I'm looking at him. Once our eye meet he whispers, "I love you too."

I wake up and groan, today is my dads first day of teaching school here. Klaus has assured me multiple times everything will be okay. I wish I could believe him, but I can't. My dad will be all over my business, he will probably offer me a ride home! And when I say 'Oh, no it's fine I'm walking to a friends house like I do everyday'

I don't know I just have a bad feeling about this. Worst of all Tyler is still a threat to Klaus and I. I'm scared he will threaten to tell my dad or something. I check my phone and I see:

1 new message(s)

From: Klaus

Hey sweetheart today after school your dad is having a meeting with all of the teachers again and it is supposed to be a two hour meeting. So if you want to you can still come over but I will be really late.

I sigh in frustration. Of course my dad will have another meeting. I reply:

To: Klaus

Okay I guess I'll just go to my house then at like six I'll walk to yours?

Almost immediately after Klaus reply's:

From: Klaus

How about I just pick you up after the meeting sweetheart? I'll pick you up at the corner of the street like I always do.

To: Klaus

Okay, I love you

From: Klaus

Love you too

I could get used to saying 'I love you' to him. It somehow makes us seem more real. I know he loves me unlike Tyler, Tyler just wanted to have sex... and I didn't want to, hints why I never did. But Klaus hasn't pressured me once, I know he isn't a virgin or anything but I want the first time we have sex to be special.

I quickly walk to the bathroom and strip out of my clothes and turn the shower on. Once the water is warm enough for my liking I step in. I let the water bounce on and off my skin. I groan when I hear my ringtone go off, it's the ring tone that I have saved for when Klaus calls me. Which Klaus rarely calls me so I assume it must be important. I step out of the shower and don't even bother putting a towel on, I'm going back in anyway. I answer the phone.

"Klaus now is not the time-"

"I'm sorry but this is urgent, did Tyler call you?" Klaus ask worriedly.

"What? No! Klaus what is going on?"

"Caroline I'm going to be gone for about a week. I will explain when I get back. Don't talk to Tyler or your dad unless you have to, okay?"

"Klaus what the hell is going on, you can't leave me-"

"Caroline you're going to have to trust me on this one. I can't tell you now, but I promise I will tell you when I get back, I love you."

"Wait-"

He hung up. What the hell.

My mind is running in circles and I think I might pass out. What just happened? I dial Klaus' number again, and it goes straight to his voice mail. Is he okay? He didn't sound very well, he sounded lost and hurt. Why can't I talk to my dad or Tyler? Not that I would anyway. And why did he want to know if Tyler called me? I don't know if I should listen to what Klaus said or if I should try and find out what was wrong, maybe Tyler knows something. I decide it's my best bet.

"Hello? Caroline it's too early."

"Early my ass! What the hell is wrong with you? What did you do to Klaus?"

"Klaus?"

"Mr. Mikaelson you dick!"

"I have no idea what you are talking about."

"Yes you do! Why did he have to leave for a week?"

"..."

"Tyler!" By now I'm shouting and I start crying, I need to know what's going on.

"Caroline, listen to yourself. Mr. Mikaelson and I made a... deal. I'm surprised he didn't take your phone away, so you can't call me. He is very over protective of you."

"What the hell? What kind of deal."

"It also involves your stupid dad."

"My dad knows about us?" I shout and cry harder.

"I never said that. No, your dad does not know about you and Klaus." He says Klaus' name like it's venom.

"Tyler, please tell me what's going on." I whimper, I want to know now. I want Klaus to be here and to wrap me in his arms. I want to be able to be seen with him in public.

"Let's just say Mr. Mikaelson has a lot of mad ex's." With that Tyler hangs up.

What the hell is that supposed to mean. What does Klaus' ex's have to do with any of this? How is my dad involved? Why did Klaus leave without telling me? Who will the substitute? I turn the shower off deciding I shouldn't take one this morning.

I walk into my room with a towel on my head and around my body. I quickly throw on clothes, it's not like I need to impress anyone now that Klaus won't be there.

I grab my bag and the house key Klaus gave me last night fell out of my bag. I quickly pick it up when an idea hits my head. Maybe he left a clue at his apartment!

I run down stairs and start running towards his house.

Once I am out of breathe, and twenty minutes late for school with about twenty missed calls from my mom, Damon, and Elena, I reach Klaus' apartment.

I slid the key into the hole and open the door. I gasp at what I see. A broken plate smashed against floor right by the front door. I sigh, what ever made Klaus leave town for a week certainly didn't make Klaus happy.

I decide to clean up the glass and put all of the pillows back on the couch. Once Klaus' apartment is back the way it normally is I walk into his bedroom and find a note on his bed.

Dear Caroline,

Hey sweetheart if you're reading this that means that you are in my apartment... sorry for the mess.
Please trust me Caroline, I am only leaving for a week. Caroline I promise you that I will tell you everything
you want to know. I got my brother, Elijah to be my substitute in class. I told him about, don't be mad,
he won't tell a soul. He will help you with the homework if you don't get it. His number is (***) ***-****.
Call him if you need anything. Don't talk to Tyler, I don't trust him at all, and your dad might try to find out
why I left... Tyler gave him some pointers that I'm dating a student... he doesn't know it's you, don't
worry. But I don't want him to try and get information out of you. I denied the pointers immediately,
but I'm not sure how believable I was. Just please, trust me. I promise I will get us out if this mess
if you can just trust me. I love you, Caroline. Always and forever.

Fondly, Klaus

I grab the letter and tuck it into my pants pocket. I wrap my arms around my knees and rest my forehead on my knees. I rock back and forth and cry. I grab a pillow and cuddle with it because it smells like Klaus. I love you too, always and forever, I say in my head.

(Elijah's POV)

"Niklaus." I say calmly into the phone.

"Elijah, I'm busy."

"You told me to report how Caroline is and I am calling to tell you that she wasn't here at all."

"What do you mean?" Klaus growls, worried and mad evident in his voice.

"Klaus she didn't come to school today."

Hey! I hoped you like it! It may seem very confusing but I promise it will all make sense sooner or later. ILY! Don't hate me because it was a semi cliffhanger!
