Well, I just can't believe it took me so long with this chapter:/
It was not only a writer's block, but also a huge amount of work I've got now at the uni. (ugh).
Your reviews made me think about it chapter more and more:)
I really will need some more reviews and support to be able to write the next chapter, 'cause I don't know when I'll have the time to do this:/
So, keep them coming!
I really can't wait to read your opinion about this chapter
and the predictions about the next one;)
Thanks to my dear friend, Martyna, I was able to think out loud about some ideas and here we have this chapter.
I hope that it's long and funny enough to compensate the long wait;)
It surely was fun to write it;) There are some really crazy, riddiculous idea we came up with my friends:)
This chapter's song is "I Will Survive/Survivor" by Glee Cast :)
I've got my BETA now!:)

Chapter 12
I Will Survive
Cassie
"Cas, what do you have there?" I see Caroline on the screen of my MacBook, we both are sitting by the table with a bottle of tequila in front of us. If someone came in right now, it would look kinda ridiculous! But I don't care. I take the list and read one of the points that came into my mind this morning. I start to read it out loud.
Number 41 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Rubbing a lot of garlic into my skin so he can't touch me.
Number 42 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Splashing some holy water over him.
Number 43 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Cutting up all of his clothes.
"OK, Sweetie, no, no and no!" I instantly hear Caroline giggling and when I look at the screen I can see she's shaking her head. "You've got it all wrong!"
"What's she's got wrong?" I hear a voice from behind her and a moment later I can see my little sister sitting next to Care. I instantly grin.
"Lena! It's so good to finally see you!" I try to make it very quiet 'cause I'm afraid that my 'bodyguards' could hear me and tell Nik, err, Klaus, that his doppelganger is actually alive. However, we spend a while cheering and I finally find a way to make my guards don't hear anything we say. I find the iPod station in the room and start to play one of my playlists. In an instant the room fills with the Glee Mash-Up, "I Will Survive/Survivor". And I make it really loud. Now I'm grateful for the fact that The Presidential Suite has its walls soundproof.
"So what's it that Cas has wrong?" Elena finally asks Caroline again. She bursts out laughing.
"You see, Cas, it's just that garlic and the holy water are just myths. Trust me, I'm a vampire here, I should know." I nod. If I should ask anybody here about vampires, I guess it should be my dear friend. "And cutting up Klaus's clothes? Seriously Cas?! You told me you don't want to have sex with him ever again. What do you think he would do if you cut up his wardrobe? "
Opps. She's right. I guess he wouldn't mind at all and would just walk naked all day. No, it wouldn't help me. I quickly cross out those three things of my list. We quickly understand that we would need more alcohol to just end this list and make it a good one.
Some drinks and some songs later we come up with some better ideas.
"You could just put some vervain into his drink!" Suddenly exclaims Elena. We both nod with Caroline.
"That's actually an idea…" We start to analyze it and thanks to that we come up with some other points.
Number 44 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Putting some vervain into his drink or food.
Number 45 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Ordering vervain parfume to use or to spray it into his eyes.
Number 46 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Decorating my room with a bunch of pots with vervain.
Number 47 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Switching his shampoo or/and cologne with the ones with vervain.
Number 48 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Tying him to the chair with the ropes soaked with vervain.
"OK, so we really have some good ideas after all!" I giggle, adding point number 48 and drinking another tequila shot. I don't remember which one it is already. What matters is that it feels sooo good…
"I know! You could actually do something with yourself, Cas so that he wouldn't want you anymore!" Elena once again comes up with an idea. This time though we both stare at her with Caroline, not believing she would actually add that. But after one more shot or two we decide it's not such a bad idea and add some more points:
Number 49 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Wearing only my sweatpants and a baggy t-shirt to show him I really don't care about the way I look.
Number 50 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Cutting my hair very short.
Number 51 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Dying my hair brightly pink and piercing my nose.
Number 52 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
A sudden love for piercing. Everywhere it's possible. And some weird tattoos!
OK, I know I would NEVER do any of those things, but when a girl is desperate, any idea seems good!
"Hey! I could actually pretend that I want to change my sex! You know, I would tell him: 'From now on, call me Jack, mate!'" This is so ridiculous that now I giggle and nearly cry. But it's still some idea!
Number 53 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Changing my sex. Or at least pretending I'm going to do that.
"You know what you could do?" asks Care and she's already got really drunk. I guess we all have. "He's a hybrid now, right?" We both nod with Elena. "When he changes into a wolf, you could call him a sweet puppy and decorate him with a pink bow!"
Now we all laugh that much that we actually fall down our seats. Yet, it's still a point, right? So it has to be written down!
Number 54 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Calling him 'a sweet puppy' and decorating him with a big, pink bow when he changes into a wolf.
After we calm down a little, drink more, and sing some along with my iPod, we come up with some more brilliant ideas.
"OK, now it's time to think of something really BIG!" says Caroline and I definitely agree with her.
"Something that would really piss him off!" I add, nearly jumping off my seat. "I know! I could call up a hooker!"
Their eyes get bigger and bigger. Then they burst out laughing once again.
"You mean, you would call a call-boy?" Elena's making sure.
I nod, and then shake my head. I already fell dizzy, but it's OK.
"Of course I would!"
Then Caroline looks like if she had a flash of a genius. Oh, it's going to be good.
"I have a better idea! You could actually call a call-GIRL and convince Klaus that you've changed your orientation!"
We all agree that's a really good one. So we add more points:
Number 55 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Calling up a hooker (male/female).
Number 56 from the list of "Things to make Klaus's life miserable":
Convincing Klaus I've changed my orientation.
"Now, let's get serious, guys. I really need something I could actually do to him!" There it comes a moment when I'm drunk and I get really serious about what I do. Yeah, that's one of the things of mine.
"Oh, since you have mentioned that, let's talk about what happens if you really would have to do Klaus!" Caroline takes up the subject and with Elena we stare at her. I don't know which one is more terrified – my little sister or myself.
"I've already told you I'm not going to…" I start, but Care butts in.
"Let's just say, hypothetically, what would happen if you did. Oh, I know! You could just lay there like a piece of wood and do nothing. Show him he doesn't affect you at all!"
"OK, that's actually the worst idea EVER! It's just impossible!" I respond before I can even think about that.
"And why is that, Cas? Don't tell me you're not able to do that. I bet you've had to pretend with Klaus at least once or twice. Now you could just stop acting."
O, o. Now I've got their both attention, and I can see them raising their eyebrows almost simultaneously. I try to think about changing the subject, but I'm suddenly out of ideas. It's really bad. I just have to tell them the truth.
I realize that my bottle is empty. Hell. I'm definitely NOT going to talk about having sex with Klaus without my alcohol! I run to the bar and take a bottle of gin. Perfect! It's a good one, but right now I could care less. I just open the bottle and drink straight from it before I come back and sit by the table. I see they both are watching me, also now drunk and, like, deadly serious. OK, I really wanted to spare them the story about me having sex with the Big, Bad Hybrid, but if that's that they want, that's what they going to have!
"OK… Before I say something, I just have to ask you, guys, one question," I pause, look them straight in the eyes – first Elena, then Caroline. "How many times have you came in a row? I mean, what's the maximum number you've had in one sitting? And with who?" There, I've said it. But OK, now it really feels weird. Their eyes are as big as plates and I can see their jaws drop. I really try to stay calm. I almost succeed. "Lena? How about you?" Now it's once again for me to be happy drunk, yeah! I start to enjoy this, when I see the confusion on my little sister's face.
Then, she finally mumbles, "Five. With Stefan."
Now I really have to keep calm. I repeat my head: "Keep Calm and Carry On, Keep Calm and Carry On, Keep Calm and Carry On…"
Then, I turn my head to my blond friend, "How about you, Care?"
She hesitates for a moment, but then she answers, grinning from ear to ear, "Eight. With Damon." OK, now we both with Elena just stare at her, not able to believe what we just heard. "WHAT? You wanted to tell me the number, so I've said it!" She gets irritated. "And how about you, Cas? We know that Klaus was your only lover, so just give us a number…"
I repeat in my head once again "Keep Calm" thing, but then I just guess that I shouldn't be ashamed of what I've got to say.
"OK. So… I've lost count after ten," I finally burst out. There, I've said it. Now they cannot tell me that I could pretend that Klaus doesn't affect me that way. Because he does. And always will. Fuck!
If I thought they have been really taken aback earlier, then I would be wrong. Now, they are quiet for some time, unable to say a word, both with their jaws hanging open.
"Well…" Caroline is finally the first one to clear her throat and say something. "So now I guess it's time for you to told us all about your former relationship with the Big, Bad Hybrid. I guess it's only fair after what you told us now." My dear friend was quite able to quickly compose herself after all. Elena nods, and I see they both sit there, on the other side of the screen, and wait for me to tell them my story.
"You know, I guess I've just heard Klaus at the door, so maybe I just…" I start to pretend I have to hang up, but they both stop me.
"Oh, no, Cassandra Gilbert! You are NOT going to just draw back now! Remember I've got a super hearing and I did not hear Klaus coming. So spill the beans, 'cause we're not gonna let you go!" Suddenly, Caroline gets angry the only thing I can do is take another shot of gin and take a deep breath.
"OK, guys. If you want it, you are going to get it. So everything started not long after my 21st birthday…"
