Caroline
"Klaus, Caroline, would you two mind staying after a moment, I need to discuss something with you" Alaric says after the bell rings signaling classes are over for the day. I notice Katherine and a few others chuckle giving us suggestive looks. I freeze.
Klaus and I both nod avoiding eye contact. Ussually we're much calmer in situations like this, pretty used to being teased about haveing feelings for one another, but now that Katherine knows it's safe to say our secret is far from safe.
Stefan smiles handing one of my books off my desk to me "I guess I'll see you tonight" he says
No offense to Elena and Bonnie, but Stefan Salvatore is honestly one of my best freinds. He's smart, funny, kind, and one of the sweetest guys I know, I honestly don't know what I'd do without him.
I return his smile throwing my arms around him in a quick hug "so glad you're coming" I remind him
"Only for you" he says with a smirk before heading out of the classroom.
I turn back to see the classroom is empty except me, Klaus, and Alaric. This should be fun.
"What's going on Ric, should I be worried?" Klaus says with a gorgeous smile as he sits in Ric's chair putting his feet up on the desk. Ric is thankfully far too smart to say anything about klaus' deminor.
"Well... I'm not exactly sure how to say this" Ric says nervously running a hand through his hair.
"Just spit it out Ric" I say fustrated as I tap my foot on the floor, anxious for this converstion to end so I can go home and get ready for homecoming.
"Isn't she just adorable when she's irritated" Klaus says to Alaric shooting me a grin. I roll my eyes and pretend to be annoyed.
"Um..okay. Guys I know."
"Know?" Klaus and I say at the same time.
"Yah I... I know that you two are" he lowers his voice to a whisper, "Dating"
"Katherine" Klaus growls as he hops out of the chair and stomps twords the door looking ready to kill someone.
"Klaus!" I shreik as I race to grab his arm and stop him.
"Problem, luv?" He asks turning to me with a smile as if he weren't just about to run off and kill someone
"Klaus you can't just go kill Katherine" I scold him
"Why, I imagine the world would be a much better place without her" he counters
"Uh guys..."
"Its fine Alaric I got this" I assure him turning back to a fuming Klaus, "Look Klaus I'm angry with Katherine too, but you can't just go around killinng people when they anger you! One of the conditions of this relationship was no murder without necesity!"
"Guys"
"Shut it Alaric! And Caroline, this is very necassary!Katerina has had it coming to her for centuries, and yet I've held off on her execution because of this silly no murder rule, but I specifically told her not to tell a single soul, and yet she told Alaric of all people! She knew what the punishment would be, now its time she accepts it" Klaus tries to storm off again and I grab his jacket to stop him.
Before I can say anything Alaric cuts me off saying, "Guys, Katherine didn't tell me!"
Klaus and I are both very confused at this point considering no one else knows, "explain yourself!" Klaus orders.
Alaric sighs, "Well your crazy sister is failing my class and had to stay after for lunch to do an extra credit assignment, but she's so selfish she used all the forest green construction paper. I had to go get more, and while I was headed to the supplies closet, I heard the argueing, and being the great teacher that I am, I had to be sure everything was all right, so I was hiding behind a locker, and heard everything, and yeah. That's it. But I won't tell anyone!"
"You eavesdropped on us!" I yell, taking some steps toward him angrily
"No, no... I just listened in on your converersation without you knowing" Alaric says as if he were correcting us. He takes a few steps back as Klaus and I draw closer to him
"Do you want to know what happened to the last person who listened in on my conversation without me knowing?" Klaus says with a wiked smile
"No, but I get the distinct feeling they ended up dead or in a box" Alaric says a bit nervously backing up until Klaus has him cornered.
" That's a good guess, I mean there was a bit more torture involved but" klaus smiles evily I make a move to stop him but he brushes me off, "good thing you're my teacher though, Mr. Saltzman, can't have you failing me, and I'm sure you're smart enough to know not to tell anyone"
Alaric breathes a sigh of relief as he holds up his right hand, "your secret is safe with me" he assures us.
We nod all glad that this is almost over.
"So, if I may, can I ask why you haven't told anybody about... this. I mean if you can trust Katherine of all people with knowing this, why can't the rest of your friends know?" He asks. I was hoping he wouldn't say that.
"I don't know mate, you're going to have to ask Caroline about that one" both men turn to me expextantly. I sigh tapping my foot nervously. I've been avoiding this question for a while, worried about how Klaus would react to the answer.
"Well... don't get mad but the truth is I'm just sorta nervous that when I tell everyone they're going to be really mad and dissapointed cause no offense but nobody really likes you here, they just sort of fear you and therefore tolirate you, and that's not how I feel, I mean I love you, but I'm just so worried there all going to hate me when they found out so... yah" I say without taking a breath.
I expect Klaus to get angry but instead he breaths out a sigh of relief, "Thank god luv, to be honest I was starting to worry you had actual feelings for Tyler and were using this whole 'lets not tell anybody' thing as an excuse to be with him too"
I laugh shaking my head stepping closer to him "Tyler's nice and all but I don't have feelings for him, I love you"
He gives me a gorgeous smile, " I love you too" he says pulling me into a kiss
Damon
"RIC, THAT WAS THE WORST PLAN EVER! How could you think that would work, I can't believe I called you smart!" I yell bursting through the door to Alaric's classroom. Not only had Elena rejected my offer, but she'd done it in front of the whole class.
When I walk into the classroom the first thing I notice is Klaus and Caroline making out next to an awkward looking Ric who turns to me when he hears my yelling. Klaus and Caroline break apart. Caroline looks up at me nervously before pushing Klaus away, slapping him, and shouting "Are you crazy! Why would you kiss me you creep"
"Don't pretend you didn't enjoy it luv" Klaus says winking at her.
I roll my eyes at the two of them turning to Ric. "Well, are you going to apologize?"
He sighs, "Damon this is not my fault. When I told you to ask her to homecoming I meant with like flowers, not in the middle of class!"
"You should have been a bit more specific, now Elena hates me even more" I sigh, this had become one big mess.
"As intresting as this conversation is, I'm going to go" Klaus says heading to the door.
"Me too" Caroline squeaks following close behind him
"Going to go make out some more?" I tease
They both turn to me nervously, "Of course not I hate him! He basicly just attacked me with his lips, I would never-"
I cut her off "give it up Blondie I'm not stupid"
"Listen mate, as much as i wish it weren't true this was truly a misunderstanding" Klaus says stepping in. It's just so adorable how he tries to defend her.
"Guys, no need to put up the whole 'i hate you' act, I know" I say simply.
"Know..." Caroline starts obviosly holding on to the false hope that I don't actually know what I actually know.
"That you two are all dating and in love like Romeo and Juliet except a bit more tragic" I say simply slouching down in Rics chair, glaring at him.
"How do you know?" They both ask at the same time
I smirk "Oh, so you're one of those couples"
They both glare at me obviously still expecting an answer. I let out a deep breath before standing up slowly and leaning against the wall.
"During lunch, I noticed that Katherine was feeling extra touchy. All the hugs were a bit odd. So, later on I questioned her about it and she ended up admitting she was trying to get my phone. She didn't want to tell me why, but when I checked my phone I found the picture she was trying to delete from my messages. She had succeeded. Except, I have it set so all the photos people send me are automatically downloaded." I explain, recalling our conversation. I pull out my phone and find the picture showing the couple the picture of them kissing by the lockers. "Adorable right? I'm thinking of making it my screensaver."I say with a smile. Klaus grabs for my phone and I pull away.
"Damon! Come on, just delete the picture." Caroline says a whining tone entering her voice.
"I don't know. I feel like it would just be wrong of me to keep this picture from facebook. Instagram. Twitter."I say enjoying the look that rises on her face.
"If you dare even think of posting that-" Klaus starts, before being cut off.
"Damon won't post anything. Right damon." Ric says turning to me. I roll my eyes, and turn to Ric.
"Uh-huh. Although I feel as if there is something I would need to help remind me not to talk." I decide.
"Oh I can give you a reminder." The hybrid says walking twoards me.
"Relax. I just want Caroline to help me out. Just a bit." I say causing the blond to pipe up. Klaus raises an eyebrow and glances twoards Caroline.
"What do you want?" She asks.
"Just talk to Elena for me." I say casually, trying not to make a big deal out of it.
Caroline smiles at this and trys not to laugh, but fails. Klaus gives me a knowing look, and I ignore him. Meanwhile Alaric shakes his head and laughs lightly.
"Its not a big deal! Just tell her you think she should give me a second chance." I explain, running a hand through my hair.
"It's that bad mate?" Klaus says, sitting down on the side of Rics desk. I roll my eyes, and turn to caroline.
"Its cute, really. But I don't think so.." Caroline says with a smile.
"Caroline, you don't really have a choice here. Its that or..." I say holding up the phone.
"Oh trust me if Caroline doesn't want to she doesn't have to. I'm just seeing how this plays out." Klaus throws in.
"Please?" I say practically choking the word out.
"You really do love her don't you." Caroline says as if she just figured out a jigsaw puzzle.
"Shut up! Are you going to do it or not?" I yell, while she smiles excitedly.
"Fine! But if you tell anyone-"
"I won't tell. In case you haven't realized I don't have many friends." I cut her off. She nods and turns to Klaus.
"Let's go. I'll talk to her tonight." she says, grabbing his hand, and pulling him twoards the door.
"Great. I'll see you later Ric. Hopefully by then you get some better plans." I say following them out. Ric mummers "stupid teens"as we leave and I roll my eyes, before closing the door, and finally leaving.
