Anonymous said: Klaus and Caroline arguing over what to name their twins that are due in a week.
Caroline Forbes had a tendency to get what she wanted. And, while she had accepted that she would never be able to get pregnant and give birth, that didn't mean she had to give up her dreams of being a mother. She hadn't realized that a part of her was still holding on to that dream until she had come across a very pregnant teenager crying in an alleyway. One large breakfast and a tearful conversation later, and Caroline had a plan. The young woman and her baby would be new additions to her family.
It had taken a few days to convince Klaus that it was a good idea -while Elijah sat nearby with an odd smile on his face, occasionally adding his own arguments to her case. It had then taken a few weeks to convince Sarah -The Girl, as Klaus had taken to calling her- that they weren't trying to pull her into some sort of Mormon-esque type of sister-wives set up. Instead of one mother, however, there would be two. Of course, after telling her that, it had taken them another few days to convince her that Caroline didn't want to have any kind of romantic or sexual relationship with her.
That led to their current problem: it was one week before the twins -and wasn't that an unexpected shocker- were due, and they hadn't settled on their names. Klaus, while not offering up any helpful suggestions, was quick to shoot down most of hers.
"We are not naming our children after a dead witch who tried to kill me or after one of your ex-boyfriends who did kill one of my brothers!"
In utter frustration, Caroline threw the book of baby names at his head.
"We're sure as hell not naming either of them after one of your long dead drinking buddies who you just love to reminisce about!"
The argument continued on and off until Sarah actually went into labor. On the way to the hospital, they agreed to name one of them after Stefan -the only person they both liked- and let Elijah pick the other name. Caroline was a bit disturbed by the fact that Elijah practically glowed when they told him the news.
