Klaus found her in the stables, petting his horse. He walked up silently behind her after noting that she seemed calmer. "His name is Apollo."

Caroline jumped and turned around to face him. She was crying and hastily wiped away the tears. Klaus took a step closer, wanting to comfort her but she wasn't going to let him. She muttered, "This was a mistake. I never should have come here."

It felt like Klaus' heart had ripped in two; it wasn't a feeling he was familiar with but it didn't feel good. He snarled, "Then leave if you don't want to be here! How could you come here and tell me that you wish to be with me then take it all back like it was nothing? Believe it or not, Caroline, but I have feelings too. I've told you countless times how I fancy you but you don't seem to care about how I feel. So leave. I don't ever want to see you again."

The original ran off so fast that she didn't even see him go. She just stared at the air where he stood, unsure of what had happened in the past five minutes. She wished she could take it all back. He didn't understand how much he meant to her.

Caroline stayed in the stable for a few hours, brushing Apollo and fighting back her tears. Klaus, on the other hand, was tearing apart a guest room, throwing bits of a queen sized bed frame everywhere.

"What's all the racket in here?" Kieran asked as he walked in to the room. Klaus tossed a bedpost down and sighed. He said, "What brings you by, Kieran?"

Kieran stepped over debris until he was a few feet from the original vampire. "My niece tells me that a young woman came into the bar looking for you. I can't help but have some concern for her."

Klaus rolled his eyes. "Did she also mention that the young woman in question left with me and is a vampire?"

"No, she didn't." Kieran said, frowning.

"Did dear Cami also mention that the girl in question is Caroline Forbes, the woman Klaus has been infatuated with for years now." Elijah said, coming into the room. "She will come to no harm at his hand."

Kieran just stared at the two vampires and nodded. "I'll be going then. Remember, no harm comes to Camille."

"Yes, you've made that point incessantly clear." Klaus said, glaring at Kieran. "Thanks for dropping by, mate."

Kieran left without another word and Klaus went back to tearing apart the bed. Elijah's hand landed firmly on his arm and he pulled his younger brother away from the wreckage. All he said was, "Enough." Klaus dropped the piece of headboard he had been holding and turned to face Elijah.

"What is it that you want, brother? I'm having a splendid time here." Klaus waved his hand over the disaster of a room as if to show that he was proud of the fact that he had destroyed a room in his home.

"Oh yes, Niklaus, this is a great accomplishment. I applaud you on your hard work." Elijah said, calmly. "Now, we have other matters to discuss. What are you going to do about Caroline. She's crying in the stables."

"Yes, Nik, what are you going to do about that devastated girl out there?" Rebekah said, walking in. She looked at the damage. "My, my, you have been busy, dear brother."

Klaus' nostrils were flaring as he looked from sibling to sibling. "Caroline is my problem. Leave me to it."

Elijah wagged his finger at him. "She is our problem. We must consider Hayley and the baby in this situation."

"The wolf is of no concern to me. Is she not your girlfriend by now, Elijah?" Klaus asked. "You two seem awfully close, one doesn't have to look too hard to notice that."

"The relationship between Hayley and I is nothing more that what Rebekah and I have, I can assure you of that." Elijah said. At that, Rebekah took a step away. Elijah gave her a look. Rebekah just shrugged it off and retorted, "We are not like Hayley and you. Don't delude yourself, Elijah."

"I have nothing to say to that." He said before walking toward the door. Before exiting, he said, "Figure this out with Caroline, Niklaus." Rebekah made her leave, too, without a word to Klaus, she had nothing to say. She wasn't a big fan of Caroline and didn't think she was good enough for Niklaus.

It was an hour until he had calmed down properly. He went down to the stables to find Caroline braiding Apollo's tail. He smiled and said, "He's going to have a gender crisis if you finish."

Caroline looked up at him and he was pleased to see her actually smile. "Maybe you'll have to call him Apollonia from now on."

Klaus leaned against the stall and watched her finish in silence. She patted Apollo's head fondly as she passed him and walked toward Klaus. He found himself holding his breath for some reason. Caroline took his hand and said, "I'm sorry about what I said earlier. I really didn't mean it. This wasn't a spur of the moment decision to come down here, I've been planning it for a while. I had plenty of time to back out. I…I just don't know what got into me." A tear trickled out of the corner of her eye and he caught it with his thumb halfway down her cheek.

"There's no need to apologize, love. We've both said things that we regret."

"You regret what you said?"

"Of course, Caroline."

She smiled and leaned up to kiss him lightly on the lips. "You know, I've never really thought about you actually having feelings before. You've always been this super powerful hybrid who seemed to not have any emotions other than anger. You're making me look at you in a whole different light."

"I'm not all bad, contrary to popular belief. Although most people don't see this side of me, I can assure you of that." Klaus said, his eyes crinkling with his smile.

"Does that mean that you're all mine?"

"I've always been only yours, love."

"Good." Caroline took him by the hand and led him up to the house. He thought of making the joke that she was just using him for sex, but he remembered how that went last time. She seemed to genuinely care about him, she had expressed that much in the last few hours — not to mention what she had told him in the woods in Mystic Falls. She obviously knew how he felt about her. He had never felt this way for anything or anyone before. It was all so foreign to him and with her by his side, he knew that he would be able to manage it.

They reached Klaus' room after some direction on his part. With the door shut firmly behind them and locked, they couldn't keep their hands off of each other. Klaus' shirt went flying across the room, closely followed by Caroline's. Pants were unbuttoned and slid off, a bra was lost somewhere in the corner, and underwear was practically torn off. They settled themselves onto the bed as they continued to feverishly kiss. Klaus cupped her breasts as his tongue and mouth explored her neck. She couldn't help but moan at the sensation. He loved that noise, having only done this once with her, he wanted to keep hearing it over and over again. He let one of his hands slide down her body and he slipped two fingers inside of her. From that moment, she couldn't stop moaning. His fingers were fast and when he settled between her legs and let his tongue have free range of a spot just north of his fingers, it was all over for her.

She pulled his head up after and kissed him fervidly. She let out a loud gasp when he suddenly pushed himself into her. He began to slide as far as he could inside of her then pull out almost all of the way. He varied his pace for this enough to drive her mad. She wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck, holding on for dear life as he put his thousand years of experience to good use. She could barely contain herself and knew that somewhere in the house, Elijah and Rebekah as well as any other vampire could hear her. She wondered what wolf hearing was like and considered what Hayley's face must look like at that moment but Klaus' tongue plunging into her mouth brought her out of her thoughts. She knew that he was getting close after another five minutes and wanted him to get there for her. She rolled them over quickly and began to ride him as hard as she could muster. It was his undoing. He emptied himself into her and she rolled off of him. They both fought to catch their breath, which seemed funny as they both were vampires and didn't get out of breath easy. Klaus pulled Caroline against him, wrapping his arm fondly around her body. She placed her head on his shoulder and curled against his side, placing a hand on his chest. Together, they drifted off into a peaceful sleep, fairly content with their lives in that moment.
