Hey everyone! Back for another week and another update! First off, we'd like to thank you all for the favorites, follows, and the amazing reviews, and to respond to some:
- Glad you like Elena v.s. Katherine! Those two are really fun to write and it's great to know people enjoy reading about them. Thanks for the review!
Guest- Thanks! Don't worry, Drew will be running very fast...
Luah 07- Hey! So, thanks for reading and enjoying the chapter, writing all the girls jealous can be fun. In regards to Kennet/Konnie, we love those two very much, so you can expect a kiss in the future, but since it's Bonnie and Kol you might have to wait a while. As for Mikalel, he will definitely be in upcoming chapters and will have a bigger story line coming up soon.
Chhavi- Hi, thanks for reviewing! Anyhow, the results for the previous poll are already in and we're still deciding whether or not to post the them. This time around though, you'll definitely find out who gets the most votes and we'll try and update you guys every two chapters or so.
Guest- Alaric and Rebekah have a very odd relationship, you'll all get to see more of them with surprising twists, so keep reading!
Bryana- Glad you thought this chapter was funny, we wanted to do a fun little chapter because things are going to get a bit more serious in upcoming chapters... As for Drew, he left the bus with Alaric so he wasn't involved in the game, and he will certainly stir up some trouble in the future!
Freckled98- Lol they really are, thanks for reviewing! And yes, Konnie and Klaroline are life!
Guest- Lol You never know...
Bringalldluvson- Thanks! Jealous Caroline is definitely fun to read and write and Kol/Kat/Damon are the best! When we say OTP we are referring to 'one true pairing' or favorite couples. Thanks for the review!
tippy093- So happy you enjoyed the chapter! Drew will definitely not last long here, but still he's at MF high now so he might just become a bit of a problem for certain people... Anyway, glad you like the Damon/Caroline friendship, those two are fun to write and their friendship will continue to develop throughout the story. Just throwing it out there, Damon is totally a Klaroline shipper at heart, so you never know...
LiasonAddekKalijahFan- Glad you like the story! As for Kalijah, those two will have a lot of twists and turns in their relationship, but there's definitely a strong chance of them winding up together. For now, we want to try and start them over from scratch and Kol and Katherine's friendship might certainly be a reason for Katherine to spend more time with the Mikaelsons as well as other things... As for Elena/Elijah those two are just fun to mess around with and Elijah is a big part of developing the Delena relationship, when it comes to Nadia you will be hearing more about her and some other characters in the next chapter and she will start to become a much bigger part of the story.
Great! Anyway, hope you all enjoy, and don't forget to continue favoriting/following/reviewing!
Damon
"Ric! We've been walking forever! How much longer!"
"Stop complaining Rebekah!" Ric replies with an eye roll.
"That wasn't me!" Rebekah argues throwing her hands up.
"It was me" Katherine admits, rolling her eyes at Ric's mix up.
"Sounded like Rebekah" he replies with a shrug.
"We sound absolutely nothing alike! I have a bloody accent!" Rebekah argues.
"I meant the whiny tone and complaining" Alaric mumbles glaring at her, causing Rebekah to sigh in defeat.
I laugh at this before saying, "Seriously Ric, how much longer? You said we were close"
"Can you all please stop complaining! You're-" He pauses leaning closer and shooting a look in Drew's direction before saying "Vampires"
"Uh oh, Ric said the V word" Katherine choruses causing Ric to roll his eyes.
"You know I say we dump the human baggage so we can talk freely again" I suggest shooting a look towards Drew who is divulged in a conversation with Matt and Caroline.
"You know I think your girlfriend's new bestie would totally agree with that plan" Katherine says nodding her head towards the back of our group where Elena is talking to Klaus, laughing about something he said.
I roll my eyes trying to ignore this comment before turning to Ric saying, "How far away are we from the stupid camp site!" I grab the map out of his hands and try to figure out where we are
"Let me see" Katherine says trying to grasp the paper from my hands.
"No" I say pulling it back. We both begin to pull on the map while Ric tells us to stop. I try to wrestle it out of her grasp but she has managed to get a better grip on it.
"Let me see Damon!" she argues.
"No, you're going to break it!" I point out.
"Now I am!" she decides tugging on the map yet again, pulling it from my grasps, before ripping it into pieces.
"Oh my God" Ric says looking down at the shredded pieces of paper, "What is wrong with you two!"
"It was her fault!" I state at the same time Katherine says, "It was his fault!"
"What's going on?" Elena asks, most likely noticing how we've all stopped moving.
"Why don't you ask Klaus since you two are so close all of the sudden" Katherine suggests
Elena rolls her eyes while Klaus says, "I thought you would be pleased Katerina, now you have more time to spend with your favorite boy toy"
"Oh please, I don't need you distracting his pathetic excuse of a girlfriend to spend time with him. I have Damon wrapped around my little finger" Katherine replies nonchalantly.
"I'm still here you know" I object.
"Of course you are, see? I have it under control, you on the other hand can't even keep your stupid blonde obsession from flirting with the pathetic southern football jock" she points out.
"I have had enough of your stupid comments" Klaus decides grabbing her by the neck and pinning her against a tree.
"Really? What are you gonna do, kill me? I dare you!" she spits out at him.
"Don't tempt me" he fires back.
"Do they do this often?" I hear Drew whisper to Caroline who rolls her eyes in response.
"Every now and then" Bonnie answers.
"Klaus has a bit of a temper, isn't that right grumpy" Katherine taunts before trying to push past him. Klaus then grabs her by the head before snapping her neck and throwing her down on the ground.
"Oh my god! Did he just kill her!" Drew says eyes wide in shock, "You're.. You're crazy!"
"I got this" I say before grabbing the boy by the collar of his shirt and looking in his eyes, "You didn't see that, in fact you're kind of tired. You're going to go back to the bus and wait for the tow truck. You're not going to move from there and if any cars drive by you're going to stop them, make sure they send help for us, and then go home and pretend this trip never happened"
Drew nods absentmindedly before turning around and heading back in the direction we came. "Mission accomplished" I say simply with a shrug ignoring some of the glares I get.
"Ugh! This is all your fault!" Caroline whines. At first I think her comment is directed towards me, but then I noticed her glare is directed at Klaus. "You can't just walk around snapping people's necks! Especially not when there's humans around! What is wrong with you, how can someone be so inconsiderate and selfish! This is exactly why I-" she pauses as if realizing where this statement is headed and quickly says, "Hate you! This is why I hate you"
"Caroline-" he tries taking a step towards her, but it's no use.
"No, I've heard enough from you!"
"Guys-"
"I think I'll be the one to decide when you've heard enough" Klaus decides stepping even closer to her.
"Guys!"
"Oh what? So now you're in charge of me? Let me tell you one thing Klaus Mikaelson you do not get to dictate what I do and who I do it with for that matter"
"And what exactly is that suppose to mean?" Klaus replies challengingly.
"I think you know exactly what it means. You-"
"Guys!" Alaric shouts, finally loud enough to get them to stop.
"What!" they yell back in reply.
"In case you haven't noticed it's raining and we're nowhere near where we need to be" He replies. Sure enough what started out as a light drizzle had become a torrential down pour.
"Great job Klaus" Caroline mummers glaring at him.
"Oh, so now the weather's my fault too?" he replies looking quite annoyed.
"Maybe if we didn't waste all this time on you and your issues we'd be at the camping site already" she fires back.
"Who cares who's fault it is! Stop arguing so when can get out of here before Rebekah melts" I say causing both of them to spare one last glare before shutting up.
"Ric, did you hear what he just said!" Rebekah points out.
"Nothing that isn't true" Alaric mumbles before saying, "Alright, let's go. We shouldn't be too far from the camping site"
Caroline
Ugh! Stupid Klaus Mikaelson with his stupid anger issues, and his stupid jealousy problem, and his stupid amazing eyes and gorgeous accent. Stupid! Thanks to him we're all now trekking through the woods in the pouring rain looking for a campsite that may or may not even be here. Ugh! I hate him.
"You know if you glare at Klaus much longer, you're probably going to make him cry" Damon whispers to me temporarily turning my attention away from him.
"Shut up" I reply rolling my eyes, "It's freezing, can I have you're jacket or something?"
"Sure, I'll just be cold" he replies sarcastically. Still, he pulls of the leather jacket he wears, handing it to me. I slip it on and can't help but notice Klaus rolling his eyes at this. I'm about to comment but think otherwise.
"So...um, what's up with you and Katherine?" I question motioning to the brunette who is now being carried by Elijah who was left with the job when he pointed out we couldn't just leave her there.
"What's up with you and Klaus." He responds with a smirk. This causes me to go silent for a moment.
"Wait guys stop." Elena, who has somehow ended up at the front of the pack, orders causing everyone to come to a halt. She takes a few steps forward and pushes past some bushes.
"I guess today won't be all bad." She says, moving aside to show what appears to be a large cabin. I can't help but smile at this revelation.
"Elena, I could kiss you right now." Alaric says also appearing happy at this as he ushers us all towards the cabin.
"Please don't. I would hate to have to give both of my friends the cold shoulder for kissing my girlfriend. " Damon comments putting an arm around Elena's shoulders and pulling her close to him.
Alaric rolls his eyes as he reaches the door. He pauses for a minute as if deciding what to do next before knocking on the door.
"What are you doing?" Klaus questions, and although I was thinking the same thing less than a second ago I roll my eyes.
"Someone could live here so it's probably best not to just barge in." Alaric explains with a sigh. Without another word Klaus pushes past Alaric and throws the door open.
"Hello? Anybody out here in the middle of the woods? No? Thought so." He yells out mostly just to make a point.
"Dramatic much." I mutter under my breath, rolling my eyes for what must be the billionth time today.
"Oh yes I'm the dramatic one." Klaus says narrowing his eyes at me from where he stands inside the house. I walk into the cabin making a point to shove him as I do this. He chuckles lightly and I'm about to yell at him, but I suddenly see where we will probably be staying until the rain lets up.
It's much bigger than it appeared to be from the outside, and it looks more like a mansion than a log cabin. The area before me is wide, the wood polished to perfection, extremely comfortable looking furniture placed expertly.
"Wow." Bonnie comments and I turn to see her standing behind me, Kol by her side.
"Glad to see you like our family cabin." Kol says shooting her a smile.
"This is your family's cabin?" I question.
"That would be correct." Elijah says as he walks past us gently placing Katherine on the couch.
"Its beautiful." Elena says looking around with admiration.
"It is, isn't it?" Kol responds taking a seat on the couch and kicking his feet up on the coffee table.
"Kol-"Elijah starts, most likely about to tell him to get his feet off the table, but he doesn't need to finish because Klaus is shoving his feet off of the table in an instant.
"It would probably be best not to destroy the house considering Mikeal is coming here next weekend." Klaus says giving Kol one of his 'Listen to me or you die' faces.
"I'm not afraid of Mikeal, unlike you" Kol replies placing his feet back on the table.
"You know, I'm pretty sure I have an emergency dagger somewhere around here so I highly suggest you watch your tongue." Klaus says a threatning tone in his voice.
"Dagger. That must be your favorite word because you always seem to be throwing it around when you're at a lost of what else to say." Kol fires back not at all backing down.
"Kol stop engaging." Elijah says trying to step in between the two, but obviously failing as Klaus just shoves him away.
"I'm not engaging I'm just stating facts. Niklaus is just angry because...well, I think we all know why." He states shooting a look in my direction. Without another word Klaus pulls Kol off the couch and throws him across the room in one effortless movement.
Kol gets up, stabilizing himself but before he can make a move, Klaus punches him right back down.
"Klaus stop!" Rebekah yells vamp speeding over and pushing Klaus away from Kol.
"Rebekah stay out of it." Klaus says not even glancing towards her as he shoves her to the side and heads for Kol again.
He seems to notice something and smiles, reaching into a nearby vase and pulling out a dagger.
"I knew I had one laying around." he says. Kol's eyes widen as if he realizes this is no longer just a few punches being swung.
He attemps to push Klaus away, but Klaus obviously has the upper hand. He grabs Kol by the collar and pushes him against the walll. I'm about to interject deciding if anyone can get him to stop this it's me, but before I can do anything, Klaus shrinks to the floor grasping his head in pain. I turn to Bonnie to find her murmuring the words to a spell and slowly closing the gap of space between her and Klaus.
"How adorable, your little girlfriend's defending you." Klaus manages to choke out, smiling at Kol.
"For the last time. I'm not Kol's girlfriend!" Bonnie says her voice low but filled with a power that I've never seen in her. She twist her hand and Klaus's neck snaps easily, causing him to fall to the floor motionless.
I release a breath I didn't realize I had been holding and feel myself begin to calm down.
"Wow. You guys make Stefan and I look like amateurs." Damon comments breaking the silence that had seemed to fill the room.
"Um..we should probably figure out what are next move is. Elijah, care to help me figure out rooming situations in case the rain doesn't let up. It's probably best not to be searching for a camp site in the woods at night in the middle of a rain storm." Alaric says as if Damon's comment finally gave him the opportunity to speak.
"Of course." Elijah responds, fixing his suit jacket and leading Alaric out of the room. With that everybody seem to forget what just happened carrying on semi-causal conversations and getting comfortable. My eyes land on Klaus' motionless body and I suddenly know that if I don't get out of here soon I'm going to explode.
"You alright, Care?" Damon questions dragging me out of my thoughts. I realize that I'm the only one still standing here by the door and he looks at me concerned raising an eyebrow.
"I'm going for a walk." I decide. I'm about to leave but he lightly grabs my arm.
"In that weather?"
I bite my lip and my eyes flick over to Klaus again and by the time they meet Damon's eyes he nods and opens the door, grabbing an umbrella that was conveniently placed there.
"What are you doing?" I ask instantly regretting saying anything when I hear how weak my voice sounds. How fragile Klaus has made me.
"A walk doesn't sound half bad." Damon decides and I can't help but smile lightly.
"Thanks." I say, and with that we walk back into the horrible rain that feels so relieving at the moment.
Alaric
"What if we put Kol with Rebekah?" I suggest.
"Then we'd have to put Klaus with Katherine" Elijah replies. We both exchange a look before shaking our heads no.
"Why don't we just start over" I decide pulling out a blank sheet of paper, "Okay so we have 5 rooms and 10 people"
"11" Elijah corrects me.
"Oh, I forgot to count Rebekah as a person" I apologize, "But she can sleep in the living room, or the bath tub" I say brushing it off.
Elijah looks at me oddly for a moment before sighing and saying, "Whatever makes this easier"
"Alright, let's start off with the hard ones and work our way back. We have Klaus, who can't room with Katherine, Kol, Damon, or Bonnie"
"Perhaps we should start somewhere else" he suggests.
"How about Kol and... Bonnie?" I say unsure of how else to pair him. Bonnie was the only person who Kol seemed to like.
"I suppose that will do. What about.. Matt?" he replies.
I pause for a moment thinking before saying, "I'll room with Matt. I don't want anyone else getting hungry and feeding on him"
Elijah nods in agreement, "Okay then, Katherine"
I look over the list briefly before saying, "I'd go with you, or Damon"
"Damon" Elijah says firmly, writing it down. Im a bit surprised he didn't object to this idea but I don't say so when I notice a look of slight anger cross his face.
"Alright, that leaves You, Elena, Caroline, and Klaus" I read out the remaining people.
"We could do Niklaus and Caroline. They might not be at the best place right now, but Klaus would never hurt her. She also knows how to keep his temper in check better than anyone" He suggests.
I nod in agreement, for some reason thinking this will not end well at all. "Which leaves you and... Elena" I say, not sure how to feel about this. As Damon's friend I probably shouldn't encourage his girlfriend sharing a room with another guy who has an obvious crush on her, but then again if I start moving people around I could end up with someone like Klaus, or worse, Rebekah.
"Then I guess it's settled" he says, writing down the last arrangements.
I sigh, "Yep. let's go share the news.
Caroline
"So... How's you're life been?" I say as an attempt for conversation.
Ever since we left the cabin Damon and I had walked together in silence. It was a comfortable silence, but I feared that if Damon got bored he might decide to go back and drag me along with him.
"Great, I'm on a roller coaster that only goes up" he mutters in reply, seeming to have been deep in thought.
"Did you just quote the Fault in Our Stars?" I realize, shocked that Damon Salvatore of all people would have a clue about what that is.
"Nope" he replies simply.
"Oh my god, you totally did! You read the Fault in Our Stars!" I say shocked as the words come out of my mouth.
"I did not! I don't even know what that is" he replies defensively.
"It's a book by John Green, one that you read" I respond surely.
"Sounds more like some cheesy soap opera" he mumbles.
"Well the title didn't stop you from reading the book" I reply.
"I didn't read the book" he insists.
"Okay" I reply simply.
"Okay"
"Ha! You just quoted the book again!" I point out.
"No I didn't, that is completely different from how it's said in the book, I just said okay because it's a word that literally everyone says" he responds defensively.
"How would you know the significance of that word if you didn't read the book" I reply laughing at the expression on his face. "Damon are you blushing?" I tease him. He rolls his eyes shoving me back playfully.
"So, you and Klaus..." He says after a few moments, once again trying to get more information on the situation between the two of us.
"Do we really have to talk about this?" I question, dragging out the letters in 'really'.
"Yes, now tell me." Damon says as if the answer is obvious.
"Fine." I say with a sigh trying to figure out where to begin. "It's... hard to explain." I decide watching the rain fall to the floor and gently bounce off my shoes.
"Let me guess, things weren't feeling right anymore and Klaus just can't take rejection so now he's being a jerk."
"He's not being a jerk, he's just in pain." I say defensively.
"Well, that's the thing about pain. It demands to be felt." He responds with a light smile.
"Oh My God! Just admit you read it!" I yell noting the refercnce to the Fault in Our Stars.
"Read what?" He asks obviously holding back a smile.
"The Fault in Our Stars!" I explain although I know he already knows this.
"The soap Opera?" He say not even bothering hiding his smile.
"Stop it!" I yell shoving him lightly.
"I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. Is it some sort of metaphor?" He questions putting his hands up defensively.
"I hate you. I really do right now." I say with a giggle walking ahead of him.
"Do you wish I would stop? Because it's my job as your friend to inform you that the world is not a wish granting factory." He says easily catching up with me.
"Friend?" I say stopping in my tracks. He raises an eyebrow and I clarify, "In the process of quoting the Fault in Our Stars, you said that it was your job as my friend. So, we're friends now?"
"I don't recall saying that." He says picking up his pace so that I'm almost jogging to keep up with him.
"You called me your friend. Damon Salvatore called me his friend." I say teasingly, placing a hand on my heart as if this is shocking which it kind of is.
"I did not." he replies stubbornly.
"You did!"
"Okay." He says sarcastically.
"Okay."
"Okay." He responds simply.
"Okay." I repeat.
"Okay." He says once again.
I can't help but smile as I whisper "Okay."
"Okay." He says his voice even lower than mine.
I laugh lightly, and mouth 'Okay'.
As we continue to walk in the rain I can't help but wonder who would have guesses that I, Caroline Forbes, would be found on this evening, tracking through the woods, in the rain, quoting the Fault in Our Stars with Damon Salvatore.
Katherine
"What's going on?" I ask groggily as I slowly get up from where I lay on the couch. Last thing I remember Klaus snapped my next because of his stupid anger issues.
"After Niklaus caused a terrible rain storm we found this cabin" Kol explains. He sits on the couch next to me, popcorn spilled all around him, throwing kernels into a bowl that lies on the coffee table a few feet away.
"What are you doing" I ask him raising an eyebrow.
"Making a mess" he replies with a shrug.
"Why?"
"Niklaus told me not to" he says simply, tossing another kernel which misses the bowl by a mile.
"Well, I'm not going to argue with that logic" I reply standing up and looking around the room. It's comfortable, far from what you would expect from some cabin in the woods, but not too extravagant either.
I'm about to ask where the others are when suddenly the door bursts open and Damon and Caroline enter the cottage, both soaking wet, laughing as if it's the funniest thing in the world.
"What happened to you two?" I ask, turning their attention to me.
"Somebody woke up sleeping beauty, huh" Damon mutters, closing the door behind him.
"If we're talking fairy tale characters does that make Elena the beast?" I question with a teasing smile, knowing what his reaction to this will be.
"I thought she was Satan" he replies sarcastically as if confused, causing me to laugh lightly. "Where is she?" he adds.
"Worried she's in hearing distance, we are vampires you know." I reply, walking over to the bowl of popcorn Kol has managed to slightly fill and spilling it all over the carpet.
"Where is everyone?" Caroline asks, tossing a jacket on the coat rack which I instantly recognize as Damon's. I roll my eyes at this.
"Anxious to see Klaus again" I reply mockingly.
"Didn't you get the memo Kit Kat? Klaroline is officially over" Damon replies, slouching down on the couch next to me.
"You're getting the couch wet" I reply simply, ignoring his comment considering I was already aware of Caroline and Klaus' break up.
"Gonna tell on me?" he replies challengingly, running a hand through his wet hair.
"Don't worry, I'm good at keeping secrets" I reply winking at him.
"What's this?" Caroline asks, looking at a piece of copy paper hung on the wall across from us.
"Rooming arrangements" Kol answers simply, still focused on his made up game.
"Excuse me?" She replies, looking terrified.
"Interesting" I decide, swinging off the couch and studying the list that lies before Caroline and I.
Kol and Bonnie
Klaus and Caroline
Alaric and Matt
Katherine and Damon
Elena and Elijah
"How bad is it?" Damon asks, not bothering to get up and check for himself.
"I don't know, you tell me roomie" I reply with a seductive smile, sitting down next to him close enough to make him uncomfortable.
He raises an eyebrow at this before saying, "Care?" as if asking for her verification.
"Who made this list?" She growls, ignoring him completely.
"Elijah" Kol answers simply.
Without another word Caroline rips the paper off the wall and marches out of the room like a solider marching into battle. Damon turns to me with a questioning look and I simply reply, "Klaus"
Elena
"I guess that's true." I say nodding at Elijah's comment. He sits on the bed across from me, next to Alaric who is grading papers that he claims he should have done last week.
Just then the door flies open and Caroline marches in walking right past me and heading for Elijah. She's moving so fast that I almost miss her slapping him.
I gasp and Alaric drops his pen both of us shooting Caroline questioning looks.
Elijah closes his eyes and takes a deep breath before stating, "Can I help you with something Caroline?"
"What is this?" She yells holding up a sheet of paper that only because of my vampire sight I can tell is the room assingments.
"I believe that would be a piece of paper." Elijah says with a sigh.
"Now is not the time to grow a sense of humor, Elijah! Why would you pair me with Klaus!" She shrieks, throwing the paper at him. I debate whether or not to intercept but Alaric beats me to it.
"Caroline, breathe." He says placing a hand on her shoulder in an attempt to calm her down.
"Don't touch me. I swear, I will file something for student harasment, 'Mr. Saltzman' ." She yells pushing his hand away.
"Care-" I try but she quickly cuts me off.
"Elena stay out of it. You got paired with Elijah! How convenient for Mr. Suit and Tie over here." She shouts, motioning towards Elijah.
"Caroline I think it will be in your best interest if you relax." Elijah states.
"Is that supposed to be a threat?" She questions turning to him.
"I guess it depends on how you perceive it." He responds. Before anyone can get another word out, Katherine and Kol come vampire speeding into the room, locking the door behind them and pressing all their pressure on it.
"Kol! Katerina!" I hear Klaus screech, followed by footsteps up the stairs.
"Tell him we're in here and you all die." Katherine comments, grabbing Kol and pulling him into a nearby closet with her.
We all seem confused, but when Klaus comes bursting into the room the answer is clear. He is dripping wet and written across his face in what appears to be permanent marker is 'I Love Caroline Forbes'. I try my best not to laugh but apparently Caroline doesn't understand that angry hybrids aren't the best to joke around with.
She burst out laughing and Klaus narrows his eyes at her.
"Where are they?" He questions his voice filled with venom.
"Who?" I respond figuring Caroline's response won't be as pleasant. I don't know why I'm covering for Katherine and Kol, but its probably best to keep any fights from happening.
"Katherine and Kol." He says through clenched teeth.
"Oh, I don't know." I say simply shooting Elijah a 'Help me out here' look.
"They're not here Niklaus." He quickly states, Alaric nodding along.
"What about you Caroline. Seen them around?" Klaus asks the blonde who has a hand over her mouth to convey her laughter.
"No. But let me know when you find them. I would love one of those tattoos." She says not bothering to hide her smile.
Klaus looks confused for a minute and I realize he doesn't know about the scribbling on his face. This means he was this angry over just the water, which honestly makes me fear the outcome of all this.
Caroline seems to realize this too. She takes out her phone and says, "Smile," before taking a picture of him. He snatches the phone out of her hand and I wait for the reaction.
"I love Caroline Forbes." He reads his voice filled with fury.
"How cute." Caroline comments. Klaus turns to her and for a second I think he's going to hit her or worst, but instead he throws the phone at the wall. Caroline gasps and runs over in an attempt to pick up the pieces of her phone.
"You idiot! What is wrong with you! I just got that! Oh My God! I am going to kill you!" She yells turning to him. She grabs Ric's pen and hurls it at Klaus who swiftly catches it, and throws it to the ground rolling his eyes.
He begins to inspect the room, first checking under the bed, then behind the sofa before turning to the closet. We all wait in anticipation as he reaches out to open it.
"Think fast!" Caroline yells just before he opens it. She breaks off a piece of the wooden bed post (You would think the family would learn better than to fill their house with a bunch of wood) and throws it at him. He catches it less than an inch away from his heart.
Within seconds he's across the room and has her pressed against the wall, the wood prepared to cut into her heart at any given moment. Caroline doesn't seem scared, and in fact shows no signs of fear unlike the rest of us who quickly jump up to stop him from hurting her.
"Ever do something like that again, and I won't be this generous." he states before throwing the wood to the ground. With that he storms out of the room, and once he's a safe distance away I close the door and walk over to the closet. The door immediately swings opens.
Katherine is smiling with her phone in hand and Kol looks over her shoulder at whats on the screen.
I raise an eyebrow and she explains, "I got that all on recording!"
Bonnie
I walk into the house slowly after being sure the only person in the living room is Damon, who sits on the couch tossing what appears to be popcorn into a bowl. The floor is littered with popcorn kernels which gives away the idea that he's not very good.
"Hey witchy. Where did you run off to?" He questions carelessly throwing another piece of poprcorn, which simply bounces off the coffee table and on the floor.
"I was hanging out outside so that I wouldn't be here when Klaus woke up. What are you doing?" I explain sitting on the couch across from him.
"Playing a game." He says before tossing another piece of popcorn at the bowl and failing yet again.
"You're very bad at it, which is sad considering you're a vampire." I comment. He stops, looks at me, and sighs.
"Only you would think that the objective of the game is to get the popcorn inside the bowl." He fires back throwing the popcorn at me instead.
"Only you would play a stupid game like this." I respond.
"Not just me. Me, and Kol, and Katherine, and every other fun person in the world." Damon declares, getting up. He grabs the bowl and walks over dumping the few popcorn kernels in there on me.
Before I can say anything he says, "Maybe Kol can teach you it. You two will have plenty of time, your roommates for the remainder of our stay."
At this he leaves the room heading off to who knows where. Just then, Klaus comes storming down the stairs and as he gets closer I see that the words 'I love Caroline Forbes' are written across his face, accompanied by a very angry expression.
"Where is he?" he asks the moment his gaze falls on me.
"Who?" I reply confused.
"Don't even try it Bennet" with that Klaus vampire speeds over to me so quickly that I have no time to react before I realize I'm pinned against the wall, "Where is Kol"
"I don't know where Kol is" I say trying to keep my composure. The last thing I need is for Klaus to see me scared.
"That has to be the biggest lie I've ever heard" Klaus says, slight amusement in his tone. "Tell you what, I'll give you to the count of three and then-"
"Then what" I reply cutting him off, "You're not going to hurt me Klaus"
"Really?" he responded challengingly.
"You wouldn't" I say trying to convince the both of us, hoping he doesn't realize this.
"Sorry to inform you of this luv, but Im not Kol" with that said Klaus wraps his hands around my neck violently and I struggle to catch my breath, trying to pull out of his grasp.
"Klaus" I choke out weakly, trying to stop him.
"Now I think I'll give you to the count of three. one, two-"
Before he has time to get to three, Klaus is suddenly on the floor across the room. I fall to the ground coughing and gasping for air, and suddenly I feel someone's hand on my shoulder. I look up to see Kol looking at me with the same stupid smirk as always and an expression that seems almost worried.
"Alright there darling?" he asks, helping me to my feet.
"I'm fine" I manage to get out, "Thank you"
Kol replies with a genuine smile that I see rarely and says, "I guess we're even now"
It's at that my point that I remember how I saved Kol from the wrath of Klaus earlier, which is why he must be mad at the two of us. Suddenly I turn wondering why Klaus hasn't attacked us yet to see him arguing with Katherine and Damon, looking about ready to kill the both of them.
"Why are you complaining Klaus, I think you look much better this way" Katherine says smirking, running her hand through his soaking wet hair in a teasing manner.
Klaus throws her hand away from him and in one swift movement breaks the leg off a chair and stabs it in her gut, causing Katherine to fall to the ground. Damon is quick to respond to this, pushing Klaus away as he tries to take another step towards Katherine.
"You need to calm down" Damon says firmly.
"Are you going to make me?" Klaus replies mockingly.
"Oh come off it Nik, it was just a joke" Kol says, finally breaking in.
Klaus then turns his attention to Kol, shooting a death glare in our direction. He steps closer to us in a slow and threatening manner and I notice a slight amusement creep onto his face as he says, "You two are just adorable, saving each other from the horrible hybrid. You know Kol, I think when I dagger you this time I'll leave Bonnie's dead body in the coffin next to you"
"As much as I am intrigued by the idea of an eternity next to Bonnie Bennet, I think I'll pass" Kol replies sly as always.
Klaus chuckles at this, "I'll think of something else then, I can be very creative"
"Well, I'll just bring Bonnie upstairs to our room while you think on that" Kol decides grabbing my hand. For once I don't object as he leads me towards the stairs, but sure enough it doesn't take long for Klaus to stop us.
Without another word Klaus snatches Kol by the collar of his shirt and pins him to the ground. He pulls out a dagger he must have hidden in his pocket and positions it over his heart and suddenly the realization hits me that I won't have enough time to stop him this time.
"Klaus stop it" Damon says from across the room where he stands with Katherine who seems to have healed from her recent stabbing.
"Don't worry, you and you're precious Katerina will get yours" He replies, fidgeting with Kol who tries to push Klaus off of him. I want to do a spell to stop him but my magic is drained from before and I know the most I can accomplish is to make him angrier
"Klaus please" I plead with him, not sure what else to do.
"Why are you so concerned about what happens to him Bonnie? I thought you hated Kol" Klaus fires at me. The question leaves me silent because I honestly hadn't thought up until this point about why I cared what happened to Kol.
"Just because your girlfriend broke up with you doesn't give you the right to go all homicidal on everyone" Katherine interjects, stepping closer but still a safe distance away from Klaus.
"What do you think Caroline's opinion on all this will be?" Damon adds. I notice Klaus pause for a second, obviously weighing his options. As if by some miracle it is at this moment that Elijah and Elena come down stairs, laughing as if in another world. The moment their gazes fall on the scene before them the laughter and amusement is completely gone.
"Niklaus, what is the meaning of this" Elijah says obviously trying to remain calm.
Klaus quickly hops off Kol, slipping the dagger into his pocket slyly. He remains silent as if thinking on how to explain this but he doesn't quite get a chance.
"I'll tell you exactly what happened" Katherine starts.
"Nothing" Kol says, before she can continue, "Nik and I were just fooling around. Nothing to be worried about brother dear" Kol says jumping up from the floor and brushing off his clothes as if he weren't just almost killed or daggered, or whatever you want to call it.
"Really, you two were just simply fooling around" Elijah says, not sounding convinced.
"What else would we be doing?" Klaus says, finally breaking in. I notice Katherine glaring at him and shooting an annoyed look at Kol, but he ignores her.
"You okay Bon?" Elena asks me, turning all the attention in my direction.
I pause, not sure of what to do. I look between Klaus and the others and it's not until my gaze lands on Kol that I sigh exasperated saying, "Of course, like they said, nothing happened"
"Well, if you say so" Elijah decides, not sounding totally convinced but brushing it off, "We just thought we'd inform you, we found something upstairs that we thought might be of interest"
"What'd you find?" Damon asks speaking up for the first time. He does't seem very happy about the fact Elena and Elijah were finding things together.
"Why don't you come and see"
