Hey guys so this is chapter eight and I've been looking forward to this one for awhile now. I hope you guys like it.
Caroline was pacing around the living room skating her head while Klaus was sitting on the couch watching her and smirking. "What the hell Klaus? This isn't funny. You can't just go around killing people because they might get more power than you! God what's wrong with you!" She yelled.
Klaus' smirk was wiped off his face. "I did what I had to do to protect my family Caroline. And I would do it again." He growled.
Caroline scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Please don't act like the hero now. You did it to protect your power. He was like a son to you, so therefore Marcel was your family. You don't hurt family."
Klaus stood up and walked towards Caroline. "Don't pretend to care about Marcel or my reasons for killing him. You don't know him. You didn't know him. You don't have a say in what I do." He said menacingly.
"Fine I don't. But what about Camille? What about Hope? Is this really the example that you want to set for your child Klaus? That it's ok to kill people? No that's not how the world works."
Klaus scoffed. "Don't tell me how to be a father, you have no right. That's exactly how the world works, Caroline. Once you've lived for one thousand years you learn a few things about surviving, sweetheart."
Caroline grunted in frustration and ran her hands through her hair. "Fine Klaus. I get it. You know how to survive, whatever. But what do you know about living? Surviving is not living. You once told me that there was so much that the world had to offer. You've seen it all Klaus. But how much have you really lived?" She asked him.
"I did what I had to do to ensure my safety as well as the safety of those I care about and I'm not apologizing for that. Ever. Just like I won't apologize for taking the Doppelgängers blood back in Mystic Falls for my hybrids." he said.
A part of Caroline knew that he was just trying to spite her but really? "Are you kidding me Klaus?! You can't treat people like crap for your own selfish gains! God, sometimes I wish I never even meet you! My life would sure as hell be way easier without you!" she yelled. Caroline gasped and slammed her hand on her mouth.
Klaus' eyes widened slightly before he composed himself. She saw hurt flash through his eyes and then she saw nothing. "Klaus. I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I- oh my god. I-I-I-" she stuttered. "No that's exactly what you meant. Well if that's what you really feel then I'll just leave you. Wouldn't want to burden you." He said coldly.
"Klaus wait, please." Caroline said. But he was already gone. She really messed up this time.
Klaus was walking down the streets of the french quarter, on his way to Rousseau's to have a drink. He couldn't possibly believe that Caroline had said that to him. It hurt him more than he cared to admit. He had turned a corner when he was slammed against a wall with a force that he hadn't felt since he was human.
He pushed himself off the floor and wiped blood the trickling off the corner of his lip off his face. He looked up and came face to face with someone he thought he would never see again.
"Marcel."
Caroline was in her room chewing on her nails nervously. Why did she say that? She didn't mean it. She was angry at Klaus and it was a spur of the moment thing. She sighed and covered her face with her hands. She didn't regret knowing Klaus. He was complicated and reckless and it hurt people but yet she couldn't help how she felt.
God why did she have to open her big mouth and say that? Klaus was probably off drinking at a bar. Angry Klaus and Drunk Klaus together could not be a good combination. Caroline reached for his phone and dialed his number. She got his voicemail again. She had been calling for about an hour and not once had he answered. Caroline was getting worried. She got up off the bed and left the house heading to bar across the street.
Rousseau's. She walked through the doors and saw Camille tending the bar. Caroline resisted the urge to roll her eyes and walked up to Camille. "Have you seen Klaus tonight?" She asked her.
Camille looked at Caroline as if she was the stupidest person to ever wlak the earth. "You already asked me this afternoon. I said no." She said condescendingly.
Caroline shook her head. "No he came back remeber. You there and you walked right past him. We got into a fight and he left so I thought he would come here." She stated.
Camille smirked. "You thought he would come here because his beloved girlfriend works here right?" She asked Caroline.
Caroline scoffed. "Please I didn't even know you worked here. This is a bar across the street from the compound I assumed it was the first place he would go."
"Yeah ok whatever he's not here you can go now." Camille said motioning towards the door. Caroline rolled her eyes and left the bar to find Klaus.
Klaus was tied up in a chair in the middle of Marcels loft. "Bloody hell. Marcel!" He called.
Marcel walked into living room and grinned at Klaus. "Hello Klaus. I see you're a bit tied up there." He said.
Klaus rolled his eyes. "Haha very funny. What are you doing. You're supposed to be-"
"Dead," Marcel finished for him. "Yes I am. But only because you killed me. You also completed he final step I am now more powerful than you Klaus. My bite can kill anyone even an original." Marcel said. "However, I won't kill anyone if you do as I say. We make this deal Klaus and everyone you care about will live."
He walked towards Klaus and leaned down and whispered in his ear. Klaus listened to Marcel. After awhile Klaus nodded his head. He didn't want to do this.
This was the last thing he wanted. It would ruin everything.
But he didn't care. He would do it in a heartbeat.
"We have a deal Marcellous."
A/N Hey guys so that was chapter eight. I wonder what the deal that Marcel made with Klaus was? Anyways I couldn't write in the horizontal line in the last two paragraphs because I wrote them on different days and currently I don't have my computer because it's being fixed, so I just wrote xs sorry about that. I'll go back and edit it when my computer is fixed. Which will hopefully be by tomorrow.
