She Comes Alive
She could see Elena's mouth moving the problem was she wasn't listening to a word that her friend was saying but she nodded and made some comment when she thought it was necessary, it wasn't hard to guess that Elena was talking about Damon or Stefan, what else would she be talking about.
'Hey are you even listening to me?'.
Elena asked noticing the distracted look in the blonde's eyes and Caroline nodded.
'Of course I'm listening, sorry I didn't get much sleep last night'.
'Why?'.
She shrugged as she picked at her bagel and then pushed it the side.
'I've just got a lot on my mind but it's not important'.
Expect it was important, he was important to her, she didn't want him dead and she didn't want to lose her friends because she had decided to flirt with the monster.
It had been a few days since the plan to kill his family and him had backfired, a few days since she stood locked in his burning gaze.
His hand on her face forcing her to look at him.
'Where does this leave us?'.
She never answered his question so it remained unanswered she didn't want to leave him alone knowing that his family had left him, his mother had tried to kill him and his siblings had fled.
So she didn't she spent the night with him and fell asleep in his arms, she wasn't sure if he actually slept that night but she felt him holding her throughout the night, as she fell asleep listening to the gentle rhythm of his breathing.
She woke up that morning to find herself alone in his house, he was no longer holding her but instead a note lay in his place.
She sat up confused and opened the note looking at his elegant script.
Caroline
Thank you for you apology and for staying.
Klaus.
There was nothing more to his note and she didn't expect more anything he had to say to her he would say and not express through a note.
The rest of her day dragged on she had offered bonnie help with Abby but told her that she was a good friend and that she had done enough.
She wondered was she really a good friend would a good friend fall for the monster that tried to kill everyone she loved and cared about.
She had seen Rebekah was tempted to ask about Klaus but she didn't think that blonde original would be best pleased to talk with her considering so she didn't say anything to her.
She headed straight home and lay on her bed contemplating how she got to this place.
She lay in the darkness with just her thoughts to keep her company, she ignored her phone when it rang, she didn't want to speak to anyone that wasn't him.
All she could think about was him.
Again her phone started to ring and she the ringing just really starting to irritate her, she sat up instantly and answered the phone.
'What'.
Her voice showed her irritation.
'Caroline, are you okay?'.
Elena again why couldn't she call someone else with her problems she had problems of her own.
'Yes I'm fine I was taking a nap, what's up?'.
'You'll never guess who is at the grill'.
She headed straight to the grill after Elena called not before getting changed into something else, she knew that Klaus wouldn't care what she was wearing but she wanted to make the extra effort, she couldn't believe that he was back and hadn't reached out to her like she didn't take a huge risk coming to him that night and apologising for her role in his almost death.
Had she played into his hands only to end up getting hurt by him, it would be the ultimate payback had he played on her own vulnerability.
She couldn't think like that she needed to face him.
As she approached the grill it almost felt like deja vu as she walked inside it was quite busy for a Wednesday evening.
She saw Elena sitting at a table with Matt and as she approached them she heard the sound of laughter and looked towards the bar where he was sat but he wasn't alone.
He saw her walk in, she looked stunning she had certainly changed, putting in a little effort for him, this made him smile.
He acted like he didn't see her look in his direction and notice the women that he surrounded himself with
He wasn't going to make this easy for her, she had tricked him and played games with him why couldn't he do the same to her.
'Can you believe him?'.
She commented louder than necessary as she sat beside Elena who looked at her and nodded.
'It's like he's rubbing it on our faces that we can't defeat him'.
'Well we shouldn't let him'.
She replied as she glared in his direction, jealousy was written all over her face.
She couldn't believe it, he had played her and now she was suffering.
She was jealous, why wouldn't she be, she thought that she was the only one to hold his attention but she wasn't.
She watched as one of the women brushed her hand against his knee and the smile that touched his lips.
'Caroline, care to join us for a drink?'.
She didn't even look at him as she went to the bar to get a drink, so yes she had gone to the bar to steal his attention away from groupies.
'Are you sure you can spare a glass'.
She replied and he chuckled.
'Come on love don't be like that'.
She looked at him and kept her voice low.
'Be like what, tell you that I want you, spend the night with you and you leave me with nothing but a note, I don't hear from you in days only to find you here with them'.
'You where waiting for my call?'.
'No, I wasn't look it doesn't matter I don't expect anything from you, so enjoy your night'.
She picked up her drink and went to leave but he caught her hand making her stop,
Elena saw him catch her arm and looked at her as she looked at Klaus.
'Caroline, I'm going to make this simple you want these women to be gone, I'll let them go it's up to you, all you have to do is ask sweetheart'.
'I shouldn't have to ask'.
She replied and he let go of her hand letting her return to Elena and her many questions on what just happened.
'What was that?'.
Elena asked as she sat back down and she looked at her.
'Nothing, it was just Klaus being his ever creepy self'.
She looked back up as she heard him laugh and she couldn't help the rage and the jealousy she was feeling towards the women that surrounded him at the bar.
Dark thoughts filled her mind and for the first time since her she first turned she felt out of control.
He watched her, she stayed even after Elena left and he politely knocked back each women until one remained.
He was winning this game as she knocked back drink after drink, she was a good actress he would give her that but he knew that she was angry but beyond the anger she was full of a undeniable lust for him and he added fuel to her ever burning fire by keeping at the flirtation with the women whose name he didn't care for or even remember.
'Goodbye Caroline'.
She watched him leave with his new lady friend, she hoped that he would leave alone but he didn't he left with her.
She was the one that was all over him touching him, hanging all over him, laughing like a school girl at his every word.
She was the one that made her feel jealous and she hated feeling that way, she had always been jealous of Elena but now she was jealous of this stranger all because she was the one he was leaving with him when it should be Caroline that was all over him and she knew it.
Caroline wanted to be the one to touch him in a suggestive way, make him smile, she wanted to be held in his arms again like that night but he wasn't making it easy for her.
She wanted him to make her feel something anything that would be better than how she felt at that moment.
She didn't even want to think where his night with that women would end because it was to painful to consider.
There was a chill in the air as she walked out into the night, she walked down the steps, her heels clicking against the concrete floor.
As she walked a noise caught her attention and she spun around and found nothing behind her expect a cat as it jumped on a trash can.
She sighed the alcohol was buzzing through her veins, she turned back round and jumped as Caroline appeared in front of her.
'Sorry I didn't mean to scare you'.
The women nodded and continued to walk but again Caroline appeared in front of her, her smile was sweet but the look in her eyes was anything but that it was a look of rage and hunger.
She didn't know where he disappeared to and she didn't care she wanted this women gone, she wanted all women that got in her way gone.
She didn't even compel the women as she sunk her teeth into her neck, the women fought back but it was pointless.
Caroline was stronger than her but not only that she wanted this women dead, she didn't want to ever see her around him again.
She gasped in pleasure as her warm blood filled her mouth, she didn't waste a drop until she felt the women go limp and then she let her go.
Her lifeless body slumped to the floor as Caroline took in a deep breath and looked down at her victim.
She didn't even sense his arrival or his approach but she felt his hands slip around her waist as she looked at the women.
His lips in her hair.
'Your just full of surprises aren't you'.
He whispered his voice was a mix of pride and lust and she turned to look at him and he touched her lips wiping away the last trace of the women's blood and brought his finger to his own mouth tasting it and letting out a satisfied sigh.
'She tastes lovely'.
'I killed her'.
She wasn't in shock that was surprising, she wasn't a killer she left that for him and Damon but she didn't feel the guilt she felt with her first kill if anything she felt something rushing through her veins and she liked it.
'Yes you did and it was a beautiful kill, no compulsion I was impressed'.
'I was jealous of her, she was all over you and I hated it watching you enjoy it'.
He shook his head at her comment.
'I didn't enjoy it, I enjoyed watching your reaction your jealousy, your rage, your lust'.
'Why did you do it'.
'I wasn't going to make this easy for you, even after you spent the night, you tried to hurt me and I wanted to hurt you back'.
'Well mission accomplished you made me jealous, is that what you wanted, I killed her because I don't want anyone else to have you and I'd do it again'.
'I didn't want to make you jealous, I wanted to prove a point your desire for me is uncontrollable'.
She didn't want him to talk any more she was done with the talking it got them no where, she knew what she wanted and she was going to take it because she knew he wouldn't deny her it.
'Stop talking'.
He looks at her as she steps towards him not saying anything and he places one hand on her hip as she holds his gaze.
'I'm going to ask you again tell me what you want'.
His voice had an edge, an edge she knew he wanted this as much as she did possibly even more.
'Kiss me'.
It was a simple request one that he wanted to give her but no until he thought she deserved it but she had proved she did she killed because she didn't want anyone else to ever touch him unless it was her.
She wasn't sure when it happened but he had her pressed up against the cold wall, his lips so close to her own but yet so far.
He was teasing her, he let's his lips touch anywhere but her own, he hears the sigh of frustration but ignores it as he continues.
But she can take it any more grabbing his face in her hands, his skin feels hot against her palms.
He allows her to kiss him but his lips don't move with her own
She pulls back stunned and again confused but the confusion doesn't last long as his lips are back on hers.
Sweeter than he had ever thought they could be, she moves her lips with his own, his lips always tempted her and now she was giving into that temptation, she was tantalized by his kiss, it consumed her, he can taste the blood of the women still so strong on her lips as he tangles his hand in her hair kissing her deeper making her feel how much he wants her.
A soft moan escapes her lips as he traces his tongue across the softness of her lips asking for access which she allows, parting her lips allowing him to taste the sweetness of her mouth.
She pulls the collar of his jacket bringing him closer until they break apart and she is left feeling light headed and breathless.
He takes her home after calling in a hybrid to properly dispose of the body of her victim.
'Would you like to come in'.
He shakes his head and she looks almost offended but he is quick to reassure her.
'Not tonight but I will take you up on the offer'.
She nods understanding that inviting him would make sense to her but explaining to her mum in the morning would be a whole different battle.
'Okay'.
She kisses him once, a victim to his lips once again before pulling back for his own good, a smile plays on his lips.
'Good night Caroline'.
He tells her as she opens the door and steps inside her house and she looks back at him.
'Good night Klaus'.
He watches her close the door and then walks back to his awaiting car.
She walked into her room, every nerve was alive from their kiss as far as kisses went it pretty much topped any other kiss she had but then what did she expect from someone that had been on the planet for as long him.
She turned on her bedroom light and was stunned by the person that sat waiting for her on her bed.
'Tyler'.
He looks at her and smiles and before it would have made her heart race but she doesn't feel the same jolt of excitement she felt when she was with Klaus, looking at Tyler now she felt nothing at all.
