Chapter 15

If love is a fight then I'll die

The vicar read started the ceremony and before too long it was time for the vows and I started to panic with everything that had been going on I hadn't had time to write any vows and then it came to me a small poem I had read somewhere I can't remember who it was by but I think it suited the situation

'Caroline please recite your vows to Niklaus'

'Klaus I love you with all my heart and I remember hearing a poem when I was a child and I think it describes us perfectly

From this day forward,

You shall not walk alone.

My heart will be your shelter,

And my arms will be your home.'

'Niklaus do you have your vows for Caroline?'

'From the beginning of my life I have been looking for your face, but today I have seen it. Today I have seen the charm, the beauty, the unfathomable grace of the face that I was looking for. Today I have found you, and those who laughed and scorned me yesterday are sorry that they were not looking as I did. I am bewildered by the magnificence of your beauty, and wish to see you with a hundred eyes. My heart has burned with passion and has searched forever for this wondrous beauty that I now behold. I am ashamed to call this love human, and afraid of God to call it divine. Your fragrant breath, like the morning breeze, has come to the stillness of the garden. You have breathed new life into me. I have become your sunshine, and also your shadow. My soul is screaming in ecstasy. Every fibre of my being is in love with you. Your effulgence has lit a fire in my heart, and you have made radiant for me the earth and sky. Caroline I will love you for the rest of my life'

I could feel tears stinging my eyes and I could feel my smile go from ear to ear, we exchanged rings and the vicar announced us husband and wife, Klaus thanked the Vicar and took my hand and led me to a waiting car'

'Where are we going?'

'Well Mrs Mikaelson I'm taking you to the place we are going to spend our honeymoon'

We wound through the street of Paris until we arrived in front of a very posh looking Hotel I never seen anything so fancy in my life, my door was opened for me by an usher, Klaus took my hand and made his way to the front desk where a women was working

'Hello Mr Mikaelson we have the room ready as you requested' she handed him over a key card and told us to enjoy our stay

'Stay here a lot?' I asked as we made our way to the room

'You could say that, I own the hotel and a few others dotted around the world'

We had arrived at the room and it seemed to be the only door on the whole floor and we were right at the top of the building so I suppose you would call it the penthouse Klaus lifted me into his arms and I let out a scream

'We must do it properly'

He opened the door and I was in ewe, the place was endless and modern, we entered what looked like a lobby just for our penthouse there where stairs that led upstairs and a glass balcony led all the way around the room, upstairs I could see several doors that led off into different rooms and downstairs there were more doors Klaus was walking up the stairs and entered the master bedroom the room had the most expensive looking bed and it had everything you could want in a bedroom complete with the most wonderful view of Paris, Klaus set me down on my feet and walked over to the window

'Do you like it?'

'It's amazing I'm so happy, thank you'

In a flash Klaus was in front of me and pulled me into a passionate kiss that set my skin on fire.

I woke up lying across Klaus naked chest and it felt right and then I looked at my hand and a smile spread across my face because my wedding ring shone in the light that was coming from the window so what if I just turned 18 and I was already married I was in love and I felt so happy, I could feel Klaus begin to stir underneath me so I kissed him on the lips as his eyes fluttered open

'Good morning beautiful'

'Good morning what are we going to do today?'

'Well I thought we could go to Musee D'Orsay'

'What's that?'

'It's an art museum then we could go and eat at 1728 and then go and do something you want to do'

'Shopping'

He smiled and nodded his head, when Klaus was with me he was a different person and he made me forget all the bad things that have happened to me

'Come on then we can go and have breakfast in a little café I know just around the corner'

'Sounds great'

When I could finally bare to tear myself away from Klaus I got up and dressed I found a whole walk in wardrobe all with clothes that were in my size which made sense since I hadn't seen a single suitcase since we had arrived. I chose a pair of jeans some heeled ankle boots and a white tank top then I met Klaus in the living room he was dressed in that long sleeved white top that showed off his toned body.

'Shall we', I took his offered arm and we made our way to the street that had the little café on and we sat and had breakfast I ordered waffles with strawberries Klaus ordered the same but I noticed that he was picking at his food

'What's wrong?'

'Human food'

I'd forgotten that Klaus needed other forms of nutrition and I felt kinda stupid about it since I was his wife

'Oh'

'Come on we better get going the museum gets busy quick'

'Ok'

I finished what was on my plate then followed Klaus out of the Café and down the street till we could fine a Taxi, we spent the morning walking around the art museum then we had lunch at 1728 I told Klaus that he could meet me in a hour's time because I knew that he needed to do some things (I didn't want to think about it) he agreed and said he would meet me, so for the afternoon I spent the afternoon inside and outside shops getting swept up in all the clothes and how everyone seemed to be able to afford it, as promised Klaus found me in a small boutique that sold the most beautiful dresses that I had ever seen the only problem was the everything cost more than anyone could guess, I knew Klaus was there when I wrapped his arms around me

'Better?'

'Much, what have you been up to love?'

'Just window shopping'

'Why window shopping?'

'Because things are way too expensive here'

'Love you are a Mikealson you can afford anything you want'

I had forgotten that Klaus had all the money in the world due to the 1000 of years he was able to accumulate it,

'I forgot'

'Seen anything you like?'

'Lots'

'Come on then'

By the time we had finished my feet and arms ached I had so many clothes bag and I even persuaded Klaus to by some new clothes much to his protest, this was the best honeymoon anyone could of asked for but I couldn't be away from Mystic Falls to long before people started to worry and I told Klaus this and he agreed this with a sigh we decided that we would have to leave the next day I couldn't miss too much school and Klaus still had things he needed to do, so 18 hours later we were back on a plane headed towards Mystic Falls excepts this time I was Caroline Mikealson instead of Forbes.
