Forever Seventeen, Forever Mine Chapter 2

Caroline never did show up to school instead she stayed in the cellar with Tyler and then they made it to his house and bed. She woke up still wrapped in his arms snuggled together. She could smell his natural scent with a hint of her own mixed in. She kissed his bare chest moving her hand down then back up as she felt him stirring.

"Afternoon my love," he said capturing her lips as she smiled up at him, "You sleep well?"

"With you beside me knowing you'd be here when I woke up yes, as always, I slept well," Caroline said moving so she was straddling his waist. She kissed him again moving her hands up to his and intertwining their fingers. "Now you promised to show me something after we got here, but we had sex," she stated moving back as he sat up wrapping his arms around her sucking her nipple into his mouth.

She gasped out holding his head to her and she felt so good with him loving her like this. It was never just sex, but it felt good to have him so close. She didn't have a chance to say anything finding herself on her back with him above her. His eyes were golden, but the love was still there, "I want you to be mine," he said kissing her neck before licking at where her pulse should be.

"Tyler," she said her voice shaking from the idea he was putting into her mind. He was asking permission and she didn't know what to say. She knew it was a risk, but she trusted him with her life and gave her answer without even thinking. She bared her neck to him even more and waited knowing there was a chance of death.

"I drink you drink," he said hoping that it would work, because he didn't want to hurt her ever again. He wanted to belong to her and if she belonged to him then maybe he would be free of the bastard. He kissed her neck before gently breaking the skin there.

Caroline moaned almost forgetting what he said as his fangs pierced her neck. It was something she couldn't describe as he drank from her. There was pleasure, mind blowing, cloud nine, and on top of the world pleasure. She could feel every thing that he could and she whimpered again before she started drinking from him as well. It was something she had never imagined it would be because she remembered when Damon had first bit her it hurt like hell, but this was wonderful.

She felt him entering her and she just clung to him as he made love to her, his fangs still inside of her neck, but it didn't hurt and he wasn't drinking anymore. She held him there as his tongue moved just below his fangs. She wasn't sure what he was waiting for but she could feel something, it was more someone though watching them. He wouldn't let her turn to see who it was, but she was too far gone to care as she felt her orgasm take over.

She dug her nails into his back smelling his blood as he continued thrusting into her. She could feel him drinking her down again and she passed out screaming his name. He lapped up the rest of the blood flowing from her neck. "You stay the hell away from her and me," he growled at the other person that had no right to be there.

First Stefan's stunt almost killing Elena and now Tyler had done the one thing that took away any bond he'd had over him. Klaus was pissed, he sped off slamming the front door, but it swung back open he shut it so hard. He couldn't win a damn thing tonight. Elena was only alive because he'd promised to get all the hybrids out of town. Tyler was no longer his and it pissed him off just as much as Stefan had done.

"Hey beautiful," Tyler said watching Caroline stir before she snuggled into his side. It was almost nine and he knew that the others had plans for her. "You better get dressed before Elena gets in here," he kissed her neck before she looked up at him. "What, you didn't think I was the only fun today?" he asked.

"No, I mean yes, but why would Elena come here? You two and the others aren't speaking," Caroline said.

"It is your birthday Caroline and I kept you to myself all day mostly, they have to have time with you too," he explained kissing her. He was eternally grateful that she hadn't seen Klaus outside his bedroom an hour ago. What he had done had worked and he hadn't had to have the blood either. He'd claimed Caroline as his and the bond was broken. He hadn't done what Klaus told him to do; he hadn't ever wanted to hurt Caroline like that.

She smiled, "Are you coming with me?" she asked not really wanting to go without Tyler.

"Well see I got this invitation in the mail like yesterday to a birthday party, but you disappeared for so long," he said kissing her lips between each word because he couldn't resist her. She was so beautiful and it was like she was calling to him.

"Tyler if you do not get out here with Caroline in five minutes I will bring a water hose," Elena shouted from the top of the stairs. "You're mother said that the shower would attach one if I hooked it up in your room," she added.

"Oh my god, you didn't tell me she was here," Caroline said trying to find clothes but he had tossed hers around the room.

"Klaus must left the door open when he left in a hurry," Tyler said before she looked at him with eyes blown. "What, he saw us having sex, I bit you, had no affect and now I've claimed you as mine, and you bit me back, claiming me," Tyler explained the best he could before he added that it meant they couldn't be touched by another.

"Wait so you're free of Klaus?" Caroline asked before she squealed not even waiting for him to answer. She jumped off the bed and ran to the banister outside of his bedroom and shouted as loud as she could, "TYLER'S FREE OF KLAUS,"

"And now I'm going to be deaf too," Tyler said covering his ears because supernatural hearing was also sensitive when it was too close to a shouting person. "Baby you gotta get dressed because I don't want anybody seeing you naked, but me," he said trying to hand her clothes to her. He had gotten a pair of jeans and shirt from the drawers she had in his bedroom.

"I'm just so happy, you're free of him," Caroline said kissing him not caring about the clothes or lack of them.

"Caroline, love," Tyler said, but he gave up just letting her kiss him for a while longer until she realized where they were and who was downstairs. She took the jeans and shirt putting them on quickly since she had no other clothes and he'd ripped the shirt she'd worn that morning. She kissed him again before running downstairs dragging him with her.

"So we get you dressed and him naked, I don't get it?" Damon asked noticing right off why Tyler was trying to get out of Caroline's grip.

"What?" Caroline turned around and turned bright red, which she knew should be Tyler's reaction, but he was just speeding back upstairs in a blur. "Um, that would be my fault," Caroline said before Elena and Bonnie were hugging her.

"Happy birthday, Caroline," both girls said before Matt and Damon did as well. Caroline was surprised that Damon was here, but she could tell something about Elena was off. She would ask later right now she just wanted to enjoy her birthday; the rest of it at least.

Caroline was sitting on the Lockwood's front steps with Elena watching the moon. Bonnie and Matt had already left, but Tyler and Damon were cleaning up inside. "I didn't want to spoil your birthday with my drama, you seemed so happy," Elena said with a smile.

Caroline wrapped her arm around her pulling her close so she was leaning against her side, "I'm sorry about Stefan, I just wish that I could have cured him for you," she said.

"You found a way to fix Tyler's sire bond, you got him back," Elena said through her own tears, "I am glad because you two belong together,"

"I didn't figure it out," Caroline said, "He just bit me and I bit him back, he didn't know if it would work even had what Katherine gave Damon of Klaus' blood," she said still not sure who had given Tyler the idea.

"Ever who did is smart, I just want to go home to a warm bed and not move," Elena said wanting all of the vampire blood to be out of her system sooner rather than later. "Besides that it was a wonderful day,"

Caroline rubbed her back letting her cry not even realizing she was crying along with her, but not for the same reasons. Elena lost the love of her life; Caroline lost a brother figure and a friend. She died too soon was turned into a vampire and even before that was used by Damon. He was different now though ever since Stefan had run off with Klaus, Damon had become the knight in shining armor for Elena and not just her either.

He had kept them all safe, but mostly Elena, he had done every thing for Elena even let them talk while he cleaned up with Tyler. It wasn't a big mess, but they had moved some of the furniture to dance along with the cake and ice cream plates and bowls.

"Somehow things will work out again, Elena," she said because she knew what everybody knew, Elena liked Damon and Damon loved Elena.

"Thanks, Care," she said hearing Damon coming out of the house. She got up staggering from a little too much booze. She thought she was going to fall forward, but Damon caught her picking her up before she even started falling. She smiled snuggling against his chest, "Thank you," she said before closing her eyes.

"Take care of her tonight Damon, even if she tells you to, don't leave," Caroline said before she got up going inside already knowing that Damon didn't have to answer her to know he would. He was her Dark Knight, her savior in the night when all thought lost.

Tyler picked Caroline up before she even got inside the house taking her up to his bathroom. He kissed her walking up the stairs glad that his mom was off somewhere doing something tonight. Her mom was home probably thinking she would be coming home, but he had at least another hour and half with her. He let her back down before helping her undress once they were upstairs. The bubble bath was just what she needed to finish her birthday out.

"You are a wonderful boyfriend, Tyler Lockwood," Caroline said as he helped her in the tub. "I'm glad I fell in love with you," she added as he got in behind her.

"I'm glad you always do the opposite of what you're told," Tyler replied remembering that she had once told him Damon ordered her to stay away from him.

"Not always because I had this talk with somebody and he told me to fight like hell for you," Caroline said holding Tyler's hand leaning against him in the tub. "Right before Bonnie fixed the ghost problem I got a visit, Mason told me not to stop fighting for you, to help you no matter what," she said turning and looking up at Tyler. She had never given up hope, but those words had kept her going. She couldn't give up on Tyler when he had never done that to her.

"I wish I had gotten to see him, talk to him," Tyler said, he hadn't trusted Mason at first, but he had before he had died.

"He didn't get much time to talk to me, but he talked to Damon the most, maybe one day you should ask him," Caroline said leaning back against him.

Tyler had to laugh, Damon and him actually talk he didn't see that happening any time soon. "He still hasn't forgiven me for the whole I accidentally bit him while I was turning after he said don't make me regret this," he doubted that Damon would talk about Mason and he was still pissed that Damon killed him, but the guy had changed.

"At least try Tyler, he might surprise you," she said closing her eyes. Today and tonight had been wonderful and she had forgotten all about being seventeen forever, but she'd never forget that she was going to be Tyler's forever. He had marked her as his and she'd done the same. Klaus couldn't hurt either one of them now and she was relieved. She fell asleep with him in the tub not caring about anything else.

"Happy Birthday," Tyler said smiling down at his girlfriend, he loved her so much and he had a secret of his own to keep. He had talked to Damon, but it wasn't about Mason, it was about what he'd done marking Caroline. He'd needed the blood in case, but it hadn't been needed after all. It had worked the way he had planned and he didn't have to worry about hurting Caroline ever again. "I'll give you those spankings later," he teased even though she was already asleep.

THE END
