Hey here's chapter three. Last chapter had a pretty depressing end but it will get better. Also thank you to all the people that have followed, favorited and reviewed my story. I really appreciate it 3 Anyways here is chapter three
It's been two years since Caroline died. The months following her death were a dark time in Klaus' life. He drank himself into oblivion every night and buried bodies every day. He didn't want to believe that she was gone. But with every passing day that he did not find her, he lost hope that he would one day see her again.
Hope made Klaus' life better. With Caroline gone, she was one of the few people he really loved. That was something that Klaus really regretted. He never got to tell Caroline that he loved her. Even though she knew, hearing it from him would've made so much more real. It also would've made it so much harder to let her go.
He and Cami started dating 1 year and 8 months after Caroline's alleged death. He needed to move on. To live his life. He couldn't live eternity alone. Camille turned into a vampire soon after.
Being a vampire changed her. She wasn't the same person. The bright blonde that reminded him so much of Caroline didn't do that anymore. She was vicious. She was insensitive, she lacked the compassion she used to have.
Klaus was in his studio going through this old sketches. He lost his muse. He didn't know what to paint anymore. Nothing he created would ever be as beautiful as Caroline.
Caroline was feeling utter and excruciating pain. Every moment of every day, she felt nothing but pain. She was desiccated. The only thing she could do was blink. She couldn't move.
At first she tried to keep track of the days, but eventually they all blurred together. She estimated that at least a year and a few months passed. She gave up hope that she would ever be found. No torture she had ever experienced had been as gruesome as this.
A few hours after she was locked in the cell she had been able to break the chains. However the door wouldn't budge.
She used all her strength, all her power but she couldn't do it.
She held in her hand the note Bonnie sent her long ago. She used to read it everyday but now she all she can do is look at it. When she felt her muscles begin to weaken she later it down flat in front of her so she could always see it. When she wasn't reading the note, she was thinking back on every memory, every regret.
She thought she would've done things differently. She regretted wasting so much of her life by being jealous of her best friend. She regretted letting people mistreat her. She regretted all of it. But she couldn't do anything to change it.
Her mind was her worst enemy. Her memories haunting her like ghosts. In the end she really was infinitely and utterly alone.
Bonnie was reading through her grimoires. Elena had been put in Kai's sleeping curse for a year and she had found nothing to get her out of it. She turned the page and found a cloaking spell.
Reading it reminded her of Caroline. Bonnie never truly believed that she was dead. Bonnie read through it, hoping to find something that says how to reverse it. Bonnie gasped. She did it. She found the spell.
Bonnie couldn't contain her excitement. She prepared all the needed items and got to work on finding her missing- and very much alive- best friend.
Klaus was walking down the streets of the french quarter with Camille when he got the call. Klaus looked at his ringing phone, answering the call. "Klaus, Klaus oh my god. I- it's- Caroline's she's alive! And she's in New Orleans I- you need to find her." Klaus stopped walking. He stopped moving. He stopped breathing. Caroline was alive.
She was alive.
Caroline was alive. He would see her again. He would see her smile, hear her laugh, her voice. She wasn't gone.
"Where is she?" Klaus voice was shaky and sounded breathless. But he didn't care. She was alive. Bonnie proceeded to tell Klaus an address that turned to be his compound.
Klaus sped away from the street forgetting everything else- not caring about anything else. Leaving Camille all alone.
Camille wasn't stupid. She heard the entire conversation Klaus had in the phone. She remembered when Klaus thought that Caroline had died. He had been in a bad place. She tried to help him but no one could.
She didn't like that the person that had to ability to break Klaus was back In his life. Especially since it's been so little time since they got together. Whatever, she thought to herself. At least Klaus and I are together, something he and Caroline never were. And never will be if I have any say in it.
Klaus knew that Caroline couldn't possibly be in one of the rooms so she had to be underground. I'm going to rip Genevieve apart piece by piece. Oh wait I already did that didn't I?
He threw open the door of the compound. He grabbed a few blood bags and sped off towards the basement. He hadn't walked inside of there in ages. He found a door and tried to push it open. However, it was completely bolted shut. He ripped apart the chains and pushed open the door.
Inside she found Caroline's, lifeless grey body on the floor. She was sitting against the wall with a piece of paper in front of her. Klaus walked towards her opening one of the blood bags and placing it again her lips. "Caroline, drink. You need to drink. " Her eyes flew open.
Caroline didn't expect to see the hybrid in front her. She began to drink from the blood bag. In second she finished it and Klaus handed her another one. Her skin slowly began to lose its greyish tint. She began to regain her energy. She slowly moved towards Klaus and wrapped her arms around his neck slowly. She hugged him, pressing her body on his. His hands circled around her waist holding her close. He couldn't help but feel unbelievably guilty that Caroline had literally been right underneath his nose for years.
"Klaus." It was the first thing that Caroline had said to him since he found her.
It was the first thing that she had said to another person in two years. After awhile she released him. He slowly helped her stand on her feet. He legs were shaky and her muscles were weak from lack of use.
Slowly they made their way back to living room of the compound. Soon after, Klaus for a Face-Time call from Bonnie. He had messaged her when he found Caroline while she had been drinking from the blood bags.
"It's for you, love." Klaus handed the phone to Caroline who accepted the calls and waited while Face-Time connected. "Caroline oh my god. I never thought I would see you again! This is amazing!" Bonnie had tears streaming down her face and so did Caroline. "Bonnie! I've missed you so much. What have you been up to? How much time had passed? Are you still with Jeremy? How's Elena? How's Stefan?" Caroline rambled on asking questions about each one of her friends. Klaus left to the kitchen to give Caroline some privacy, she was getting a degree in occult studies, it seemed right considering she was a witch.
Bonnie told her that she was in her senior year of college and that she wasn't still with Jeremy. He had gone to an art school far away from mystic falls and all the supernatural drama. Caroline learned that 2 years had passed since She was taken and trapped in the basement. Stefan was still in Mystic falls with Damon and Matt. He hadn't been doing much since Caroline had left. Just a lot of brooding.
But there was still one person that Bonnie hadn't told her about. "How's Elena?" Bonnie shifted her gaze to the floor. "One year ago, this witch guy came to town. He was pure evil and not my biggest fan considering I left him to die. But that's another story. Basically I was sent to a 1990s prison world, and I was able to escape but he didn't and I left him there because he was a mass murderer. Anyways, to get back at me, he put Elena in a sleeping spell. Basically as long as I'm alive, Elena will sleep and she will only wake up when I die. Also if I try to do any loopholes, or break the spell, both Elena and I die." Caroline couldn't believe it. Elena, good Elena that everyone wanted to protect, wasn't going to be able to see best friends again.
"Bonnie that's terrible. I can't believe it. But Elena didn't do anything to him why her of all people?" She asked Bonnie. "He knows that she's someone I cared about and wanted it hurt me." Caroline understood that. She had been collateral damage a few times herself. Elena didn't deserve it.
"So anyways, when are you coming back to mystic falls?" Caroline didn't know how to answer that question. She wanted to return. Of course she missed her friends, but all she wanted to do was take a long vacation away from all the supernatural drama. "I'm not sure. Soon though." Bonnie nodded her head.
"I have to go to class but I'll call you soon. Bye love you." Bonnie smiled at Caroline one more time before she hung up the call. Caroline stood from the couch and walked into the kitchen where Klaus was. She knew that he was listening to the entire conversation but it was a nice thought.
"So what have you been up to in the past few years?" Klaus smiled at Caroline, showing off his dimples. "Well love I have a daughter." Carolines jaw dropped. "What? How's that even possible? Who's the mother?" Caroline thought about how it was possible that Klaus could have a kid. She didn't even know that Klaus wanted babies.
"See love, apparently hybrids can have offspring because even though vampires can't have children, werewolves can. About the mother, it's Hayley." Caroline frowned. Hayley? What the hell? Was Klaus with Hayley.
"Hayley? The one that helped unsire all your hybrids so they could be killed later by you?" Klaus nodded his head.
"Yes that Hayley. Although I still hate her she's become a bit more tolerable."
Caroline didn't know why she felt oddly relieved that Klaus wasn't with Hayley. She didn't feel anything for him. Right?
Caroline couldn't be more wrong.
That was chapter three. This is the second draft I've written I just wasn't sure how their reunion would be. Anyways in the show they call Camille "Cami" but I think that's horrendous so it's just Camille here. I wasn't sure whether to add in Elena's sleeping curse because I hate that but i chose to do it with the sole purpose of being able to add a character that will help them. Wonder who it is? Lol XP
