Klaus remained silent, staring down into the eyes of Caroline, whose body was pressed against his snugly, her hair lay across her face and he pushed it aside gently, she closed her eyes at his touch.
"Are you still in there?" She whispered.
Klaus sighed and removed himself from her, rage fuelling his anger as he picked up a book from the table and threw it near her head; she flinched and looked behind her in shock, turning round to him slowly.
"I guess not then."
"Of course fucking not! When will you learn?" He roared, advancing towards her, leaning over her on the sofa so she had to press her back further into the cushions as he spat at her, "Are you that foolish? Are you that desperate for true love? It's a weakness! IT'S A FUCKING WEAKNESS!"
"Shut up!" She hissed, pushing against him feebly, "Stop it," She tried to hold in her tears and looked at him furiously but he only grinned cruelly and grasped her hands, holding them tightly over her head.
"He's not here," He growled in her ear, "He wouldn't touch you like this," He straddled her and kissed her neck harshly, she tried to feel repulsion and attempted to wriggle out from underneath him instead but he only pressed down on her harder.
"You're an animal," She whispered.
He looked at her and smirked, cocking his head sideways, "Finally you've realised."
He released her hands and rose to his feet; she recovered quickly and hastily moved towards the doorway, looking back at him, "Your right. He's dead, he's been dead for years, and you," She looked at him with pity which only managed to aggravate him further, "Have taken his place."
"Leave now Caroline," He sighed, picking up the book which lay on the floor and when he looked over his shoulder, she was gone.
Stefan talked to Niklaus for hours, they drank, they laughed, and inside Stefan finally understood that this wasn't just a debt to Caroline, he needed this, needed the companionship of this man, needed something positive from his ripper days.
But every so often Niklaus would look upon Stefan with fear in his eyes when he moved to fast or spoke to quickly, when he revealed his pearly white teeth or spoke of the victims he had left when he hadn't valued human life.
"Caroline's gone to see him hasn't she?" Niklaus asked miserably, staring into the water of his cup, swishing it around and watching the ripples form.
"Probably," Stefan sighed, "He probably consumes her," His voice sounded bitter and he looked upon Niklaus with pity, "I've been there, actually I think I'm still there, I think I'm always going to be there."
"That's the not same for me, soon I will depart, I'll go back, hurt ones I care for, be hurt in return, turn into a mon-" He looked quickly at Stefan, "Turn into a vampire."
Stefan raised his cup, "To always being in love triangles."
Niklaus frowned at the word but clinked his glass none the less, they sipped quietly and heard the door open, the wind whooshing behind a tearful Caroline, the second she saw Niklaus she ran towards him, flinging her arms around his neck and kissing him passionately, Stefan coughed awkwardly, but, when he got no response from the couple he muttered about going home.
Niklaus waved to him over Caroline's shoulder and then busied himself in kissing her neck, she clung to him fiercely, and he rubbed the tears from her eyes, kissing her softly on the mouth and laying her on the couch with him where she closed her eyes and fell into a tearful sleep, he watched her with worry creasing his forehead.
"Stefan will be here in a moment," Elena said awkwardly, walking into the Salvatore living room and standing next to Alaric, facing Katherine and Damon, who, both looked repulsed with her, but then Katherine's lips formed a taunting smile and Elena shuddered.
"You're just like me," She teased pointing her finger at Elena, "You want both."
"I made my decision," Elena replied firmly, avoiding Damon's lingering gaze.
"She wasn't a vampire slut like you," Damon interjected, drinking from his glass again and pretending to be hurt when Katherine flicked him on the arm.
"Where is Stefan anyway?" Alaric asked, comfortingly putting his arm round Elena.
It was then when they noticed the appearance of their old friend, Bonnie strode into the room, Damon jumped to his feet and his hands went to cover his ass, muttering, "Not again."
Katherine remained sitting looking bored and Elena ran towards Bonnie, her arms outstretched, her face full of happiness but before she could wrap her arms around her friend Alaric pulled her roughly back.
"Your boyfriend," Bonnie hissed, "Is conversing with the enemy."
"You're lying," Damon snarled through gritted teeth.
Upon hearing his voice Bonnie turned round, her nostrils flared in anger and Damon bit his tongue to stop himself from saying that she resembled a dragon; he was scared for his ass as it was.
"And you're a saint?" She said calmly, fixing Damon with an icy stare and seeming to forget everyone else in the room, "You, the murderer, the destroyer, the drinker, how better are you from Klaus really?" Damon opened his mouth but with a wave of her hand Bonnie caused the skin to flesh over, sealing his protests shut, she could faintly hear Elena screaming in the background, "You turned my mother. You abused Caroline. Your bother sacrificed his life for you, he gave himself to Klaus, and how did you repay him? You tried to fuck his girlfriend!"
Damon backed away with each step towards him Bonnie took, he looked around helplessly, Elena was struggling against Alaric's protective grip and Katherine was nowhere to be seen, typical. His hand felt the bottle he had drowned in earlier and he smashed it against the table, raising it in his hand, trying to intimidate the witch.
Bonnie laughed cruelly and muttered an incantation, the broken bottle flew from Damon's grasp and into hers, she flung it over her shoulder and Damon tried to grab another weapon but froze when Bonnie took a wooden stake out of her jacket pocket.
She saw his eyes beg for mercy and smiled, she had trapped him in the corner of the room, stripped him of his speech and taken away his vampire abilities, the other witches voices in her head were screaming at her to seek her revenge and she closed her eyes before obliging completely, she struck out and the stake pierced his heart with a sickening sound, but when she heard a feminine cry of pain her eyes opened in surprise and she screamed in terror at the sight of Elena, gasping for breath, clutching the stake in her heart, tears streaming down her face. All of Bonnie's magic vanished and Damon caught Elena before she fell to the ground.
His hand stroked her face, he begged for her to hold, he ripped into his arm savagely and pressed his blood to her mouth, but she weakly pushed him away, refusing, she didn't have enough time to heal and avoid being a vampire. Alaric ran towards them, muttering soothing words, Bonnie watched as if frozen, sweat peeled down her forehead and so many emotions hit her, she stumbled backwards.
It was when she heard the howl of Stefan that she snapped to her senses, within less then a second he had thrown everyone away from Elena, she lay in his arms, smiling weakly at him, her hand outstretched to Damon as well who numbly grasped it and leant on his brother for support.
She coughed up blood and both brothers tried to get her to drink once more but with her last dying breath, she refused.
When Caroline awoke she yawned lazily and stretched in Niklaus's embrace, he kissed her forehead and smiled down at her but then her face fell into shock and she lept off of the sofa and towards his painting.
Her fingers brushed over it carefully, as if she didn't think it really existed, her mouth hung open and Niklaus came up behind her, his fingers lacing into hers as they gazed at the painting together.
Niklaus with heartfelt sorrow of something he could never have and Caroline with plain confusion, if he just painted that, how did it end up in his sacred tree house?
"We're never going to have that," Niklaus said softly, "My family can not attend a wedding ceremony in the future, we will never get our wedding night, you my dear, may not even be allowed inside a church."
Caroline had warmed to his words at first but on the mention of the church she coughed and dropped Niklaus's hand immediately, "What do you mean?" She asked timidly, afraid of already knowing his answer.
He stumbled over his words; his hand clutched his forehead as he tried to put meaning into his words without insulting her, "Are your kind allowed in a place of worship?"
"My kind?" She folded her arms, "Are you suggesting that I'm not permitted to enter a place of worship because I'm a vampire?"
He took a step towards her but she hastened away and appeared at the top of the stairs looking down at him, he jerked back when he saw her leaning down from the banister with cat like grace, "It was not my intention to hurt you Care."
"You did."
"I was trying to determine how far away from God you really are."
She snorted and jumped from the banister, landing before him and barring her fangs, he fell over in shock as she loomed above him and spat, "There is no God."
He reached out a hand for her, regretting his words and trying to move past the hatred he heard in her voice, and the glistening of her wet eyes, before he could even touch her she had flashed away from him, leaving the door banging wide open as rain seeped its way into the house.
Caroline wiped the tears away from her eyes, hating the injustice of it all, she finally found the man of her dreams but she wasn't even the 'right' species for him, no, to him she was a murderer who preyed on the innocent, how dare he! How dare he judge her, condemn her without knowing her past completely.
She stopped and a car went past her, the wheels moving through a puddle which splashed all over her, but she was too preoccupied in her own thoughts, had she not done that to Klaus?
People change for a reason, Klaus had been beaten by his own father, tormented by his foes and lost the first woman he had ever loved, yet, Caroline had ignored that and rejected his advances again and again. She wasn't stupid or a fool, she knew he had evil rooted into his core, but the human who had looked so sad and shocked when she had spoke of the lack of God was still in there somewhere, people never really change.
She ran to his mansion, Niklaus's words still looming over her head and her own revelation causing violent sobs to echo through her body, he was there at once, his arms wrapped around her and pulled her into his house away from the cold.
She held onto his neck as he lifted her up bridal style and she laughed softly at the irony of it all, he watched her cautiously as he laid her down on his bed, pulling the sheets around her to stop her from shivering, which was ridiculous, because she shouldn't feel the weather at all.
But the light was dimming, something was broken and he doubted he could fix it but then her hand grabbed onto his arm and pulled him onto the bed with her, "Please don't leave me, I don't want to be alone."
He got underneath the blankets with her and she wrapped herself around him, her head resting on his chest, he kissed her forehead and she looked up sharply at him.
"You just kissed my forehead."
"Your powers of observation are wonderful."
"That was quite a…"
"If you say Niklaus-"
"No," She shook her head violently and he stared down at her in shock, she sighed and continued, "Can we just not ok?"
He nodded numbly and when she glanced away from him he smiled, but the second she looked back he replaced it with a sympathising look.
"I was going to say kind," She said.
"The word is not in my vocabulary love."
"But it is," She said, moving so she was sitting on the bed and he was laying, watching her face lighten up again and she cupped his face in her hands.
He wanted to relent, to give into her, to claim her and forget everything else but he couldn't and instead pushed her hands away from him, "Caroline no matter what you see Niklaus is dead."
"I know," She said, no real hint of emotion, "You were right, he couldn't accept this whole vampire crap, that and not the whole time travel thing, will be the end of us."
"But it won't be for us," He said a small smile forming on his face, "Vampire you equals good."
"You think?" She asked shyly, her old human insecurities building up once more.
"I know," He grabbed her waist on brought her down onto his chest so she had no other option but to straddle him, she bit her lip to stop herself from giggling, she stared into his eyes, hesitating, before moving her head down slowly towards his and capturing his lips in a slow kiss.
It was so different to the others, this time there was no guilt, no remorse, just them, but Klaus soon became worried, worried she would change her mind, so, he wouldn't give her time.
Their hands gripped each other tightly as they kissed softly his tongue demanded entrance into her mouth and she let it in straight away, moaning quietly into his mouth, her hands gripped his hair whilst she shifted her legs so they were wrapped around him and he held the small of her back so he could lift her into his lap, never once breaking the kiss. Their bodies pressed together firmly and their breathing increased.
Her lips pressing to his once more with such furiousness that he thought she was going to knock him backwards. He removed his lips from hers and she growled, he wickedly smiled at her as he bent down and pressed his lips to her neck.
She laughed as he lifted her into the air and twirled her around until putting her down and backing her against the wall. His lip's returned to her neck and his hand crawled up her t-shirt, making her gasp as he cupped her left breast and stroked her nipple in concentric circles so softly that it sent shivers down her spine.
She moaned his name and his lips travelled further down her neck until he came to the top of her t-shirt and groaned in frustration. Caroline quickly pushed him away from her so she could take her t-shirt off. It fell to the floor and Klaus's eyes widened as he realised that she wasn't wearing a bra.
"Had this planned love?" He laughed as he bent down in front of her.
She gasped and arched her back as his mouth latched on to her right breast, he sucked it for several moments, relishing in her moans and then his lips parted as his tongue darted forth and licked instead.
His eyes gazed up into hers as she watched him beneath her and when his hand found her other breast and squeezed she moaned his name. Just his name on her lips sent shivers down his spine and he shot up in order to claim her mouth.
He felt her hands on his trousers and he stopped her, her face crinkled to show her puzzlement and he leant towards her ear and tautened, "Not yet love," His hands slid down past her breasts and dived down swiftly to her trousers.
He bent down in front of her to take her trousers off until all she was left in was her neon pink knickers; he raised an eyebrow at her in amusement and just caught her muttering something to herself about her mother's 'fucking stupid shopping sprees'.
The light hearted mood disappeared as Klaus grabbed the sides of her knickers and slowly took them off. She stepped out of them and became immediately embarrassed that he wasn't face level with her but he was staring directly at something else. She squirmed uncomfortably.
What he did next totally surprised her and she almost squealed as he took one of her legs and flung it over his shoulder, separating her legs wider.
His hand stroked the sides of her vagina and she gasped with the pleasure that just that gave her. Klaus wanted to make her scream; he wanted her to shout his name. He quickly plunged two fingers into her hole and slowly took them out before thrusting them back inside again.
He gazed up at her face and he saw that her eyes were closed as she breathed quickly, a small smile playing on her lips. But she wasn't screaming. He began to pump and juices started to flow from her, coating his fingers, he added an extra finger and Caroline arched her back once more.
He pumped so fast he thought he was going in super speed and her juices started to trail down his arms. She still wasn't screaming. Her teeth were biting her lips together to stop her from doing so.
Klaus checked to see that Caroline's eyes were still closed before he plunged his mouth into her hole; finally she screamed his name again and again whilst he sucked her clit and massaged her thighs with his hands.
Her orgasm exploded into his mouth and he consumed as much of it as he could before he let her slip down the wall softly, lost in ecstasy.
Her eyes opened slowly and she saw his wicked smirk and his satisfaction, she mocked slapped him in the arm and told him to shut up. He chuckled softly but before he had time to do anything else Caroline pounced on him.
"How come I'm the only one going completely O'natural? That's cheating, which by the way, totally isn't fair," She mocked as her hands started to undo the zipper on his jeans.
Klaus's smirk widened, "That definitely isn't fair."
The floor felt hard as Klaus laid Caroline on her back, she instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist as he bent down to kiss her sweetly, she pulled down his boxers but then he stopped and simply stared down at her.
"Are you sure? I won't take you if you don't want me to," Klaus said, wishing that she wouldn't refuse him.
Caroline rolled her eyes, "Take me? Just say," Her lips found his ear and she whispered, "Fuck me."
Klaus groaned at her words and guided his man hood into her; he began to build a steady rhythm. She asked him to go faster and he obliged, she began to moan and when she was in the process of coming he quickly picked her up and slammed her into the nearest wall.
His pace increasing as her hands snaked their way through his hair. She kissed him quickly before spinning them around so he was to the wall.
She thought she had finally got the upper hand but Klaus thrust into her deeper then he ever had and she threw her head back moaning.
He took this opportunity to cup her ass in his hands and he pressed upwards, causing her hormones to increase and she groaned in his mouth as his tongue entered.
Klaus slowly lowered them on to the floor and Caroline finally over powered him, pinning him to the floor. She held his hands above his head and slowly, ever so slowly, let his manhood enter her. He groaned at the impact and begged her to go faster but she laughed and quickly bent down to kiss him.
He managed to increase the tempo and Caroline felt her orgasm build within her and so did he. They screamed each others names at the same time and Caroline collapsed on him contentedly.
He rolled them over on their sides and Caroline opened her eyes to peek at him, the way he was looking at her truly made her believe that he felt something for her.
He chuckled at her and kissed her lips once more, his hands moved over her soft curves and he hardly dare comprehend that this was real, he kissed her shoulder and she sighed, her lips finding his once more.
When they parted she still had her eyes tightly shut, he wrapped an arm around her bringing her closer, and then, the words blurted from her mouth before she could stop them, "Do you love me?"
