Chapter 10
Get Out Of This Town
Klaus
Klaus watched the actions of Stefan, satisfied with how things seem to go exactly as he planned. Soon they'll leave this tragic little town and he'll get what he wants. Then, he heard the roar of the starting engine and already knew that something was going wrong.
When he walks out of the warehouse, his car is gone and one of his minions – the one who has been responsible for taking care of it – stares blankly at the empty space on the parking where the car should be. But that's not all. Where is Cassie?! He turns around, thinking that maybe she is waiting on the other side, but no, she's not there. So there's actually only one option. Klaus grabs his minions' jacket and asks him, furiously: "Where is she?!"
Barney - that's the man's name, he believed – looks at him petrified and stutters out, "Sh…She grabbed the keys and just… left! I swear, it's not my fault, please!"
Klaus, filled with rage, snaps boy's neck and, not caring at all about his body, then vampire speeds after Cassie. It takes him only minutes to find her. She's driving like crazy, and his first thought is that she's going to kill herself that way. A sudden fear – an emotion practically unknown to him – grips him, and in a flash, Klaus opened the door of the running car and got inside. With gritted teeth, he moved, replacing Cassie on the driver's seat and changing hers to shot gun. Then he instantly turned the car around and drives straight back to the warehouse. It takes him about ten seconds, ten long breaths taken, to be able to talk to talk to her again.
How dare she do this? And secondly, how did he put up with it!? She knew better than to move, at least that was good. Because he was really pissed. What happened when he was pissed, was now lying on the ground, very much dead. Hell. Bloody FUCKING hell!
Cassie
It happened so fast that, I barely have time to compose myself to understand what am I really doing. I glance at Klaus, now driving, and I just can't understand how quickly he's been able to track me. And this changing seats? Gosh, its unbelievable!
Seeing his grim expression and barely controlled anger, I guess that my plan worked just fine. At the same time, I just know I've made him very, very angry, 'cause he's driving in complete silence. Yeah, I definitely made him pissed at me. I guess Klaus silent and angry is one of the worst versions of him – you can't say what's he's going to do next. And I'm happy that it happened. I'm just one stop ahead on my road to freedom of him. But then, I think I'll just have to cross off two points of my list:
Number 11 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Crashing Klaus's car.
And
Number 36 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Committing suicide.
Not that I would ever, ever even consider suicide. But that was, after all, just an idea.
OK, he's not talking, his anger just flaring, so I guess I'm the one who should say something. I use my most innocent tone ever.
"I just wanted to go on a ride. I would've been back very soon."
That finally made him speak and he's finally spitting, "Do you really want to get yourself killed? If you're in such rush you should've told me. I would turn you right away."
I roll my eyes. "Really, you're overreacting. I'm an excellent driver, I've had my driver's license now for six years and I've never had any accident, not even a bump." He sends me a skeptical look and I have to admit: "Fine, maybe once I've barely missed the fence, but that's not important. And besides, don't forget that's my neighborhood. I know those roads and what I can expect on them."
Slowly, very slowly, he calms down, but that doesn't matter to me, actually. I know that my plan worked and I know that's just the practice before the real fun I've written on my list.
"You really want me to have someone constantly watching you, don't you?" He asks, his hands still tightly holding the steering wheel.
I decide to tell him the truth, to make things clear. "No. I just want you to understand that you really don't want me around you. I want you to regret you made this deal with me and let me go."
"And why is that?"
Does he really have to ask?
I narrow my eyes at him. "Let me think… Oh, I know! It's because you killed my baby sister and nearly killed my aunt and best friend!" I retort, raising my voice.
I'm very glad to see that it makes Klaus grind his teeth. Yes! That's the point on my list I'm going to use a lot:
Number 1 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Constantly reminding him that he killed my little sister, almost killed my aunt Jenna and also Caroline.
"And don't think that I could ever forget about it!" I cross my arms and stare at the road in front of us.
Later that day
Against my wishes I'm sitting once again on shot gun, Stefan's at the back. I'm not speaking to him – not after what I saw today. That image is going to haunt me in my worst nightmares. Klaus told he's not going to let me out of his sight, so I have to sit right beside him in the SUV, while he's driving out of Mystic Falls and taking us… well, wherever he's taking us.
He didn't even speak to me ten words since he drove me back to the warehouse. It was Stefan whom he made to tell me that I've got to take my things because we're leaving. Oh, I definitely made Klaus **. YES! That's the plan and that's my little victory that I'm going to celebrate. At least in my mind. And in my texts to Caroline.
"C, plan's workin'. He's pissed!"
I instantly get a happy response from her.
"Great! Make him suffer! xoxo, C."
After all, she's the one who came up with this idea, when she came to see me. When I'm able to have some time alone, I'm going to call her and we'll be expanding the list.
I'm worried that Klaus would be able to see what and to whom I'm texting, so I'm not writing to Elena right now. He's obviously burning in a low, blue flame and he's waiting for me to break the silence, maybe even apologize for what I did. I can feel it. Well, he's not gonna get it! Yes, I was risking my life today with this road trip. Yes, I was considering crashing the car, just to make him suffer just as he made my family suffer. But from the beginning I knew it would be a bad idea and I decided to just scare him.
Finally, it's Stefan who breaks the silence and asks the question that I wanted, but wasn't going to ask.
"Where are we going, Klaus?"
"We are going to look for some werewolves to turn, mate. First stop: Raleigh, North Carolina." This bastard turns his head and with the corner of my eye I can see his annoying smirk. Why this son of a bitch has to be so unnervingly sexy? Ugh, I really shouldn't think about it, but rather use it to my advantage. Yes, that's exactly what I'm going to do. Then he adds: "Love, if you try to send your friends our location, taking away all your electronic devises will be the first thing I do."
I glance at him and see he's now looking at me. I say through clenched teeth: "Fine. Now look at the road. You don't want us all dead, right?"
I notice him raising slightly his eyebrows, once again amused. The upside of this is that he's finally focused on driving, not tormenting me in every way possible. That's at least what I think till I can feel his right hand on my knee. I nearly jump on my seat and try to shake it, but it's just not possible. That's why I move over and almost hit car's door with my knees. I hear him chuckle and I curse silently. What a jerk! That's his way of getting back at me! Well, two can play this game, right?
A/N: So, we've seen Klaus's fury,
but he still can keep his cool and get back at Cassie;)
We'll see how long it's going to take for them to get into really big fight:)
