Hey guys! Here is the next chapter :) I hope you like it!
Present day:
"Caroline, sweetheart, you have to get going or else you will miss your flight!" Liz called out loudly from downstairs because Caroline was still in her bedroom upstairs.
"I'm coming mom, hold on a minute." Caroline called back before taking one last look around her bedroom. She was really going to New York, for the first time ever with her best friends.
When Caroline came downstairs she hugged her mother tightly and asked, "Where's dad? He has to take me and my friends to the airport."
"Bill is already in the car. Now get going or else you will miss your flight for real."
"Okay, okay… Bye mommy, I love you so much! I am going to miss you." Caroline told her mother honestly.
"I am going to miss you to Care Bear." Liz said to her daughter. Caroline still remembered how her best friend from the foster home used to call her Care Bear. She wondered where he was right now, and if he was doing okay.
"What are you thinking about Caroline?" Liz asked her daughter concerned.
"Nothing. Don't worry about it." Caroline smiled, hugging her mother tightly. "I can't believe I am going to New York with Elena and Bonnie. It is like a dream come true, but I wish you and daddy would also come."
"We would come, but you know your father can't quit his job, it is one of the best jobs in all of Chicago."
"I know. I love you mommy, I will call you every day, deal?"
"Deal sweetie." Liz said to her amazing daughter. Adopting Caroline was the best thing that Liz and Bill had ever done.
"Bye, mommy." Caroline said beginning to tear up.
"Bye, my love." Liz replied hugging her daughter one last time.
Caroline settled into the car, and both Bonnie and Elena were already seated.
"When did you girls get here?" Caroline asked.
"About ten minutes ago." Bonnie said.
"Caroline, sweetheart are you ready to get going to the airport?" Bill asked.
"Yes I am daddy, you gals ready for this?"
"Hell yeah!" Both Bonnie and Elena said.
"Alright then, let's get going! New York here we come!"
Bill started his Lexus and began to drive to the airport. He couldn't believe that his little girl was leaving them and going to a different state.
Caroline looked out of the window, and she couldn't help but feel a sadness spread over her. She was leaving her home of thirteen years.
Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the airport and Bill helped the girls out with their suitcases. Bonnie and Elena went inside because they knew that Caroline wanted to say goodbye to her father.
"I am going to miss you so so much, daddy!" Caroline said hugging her father tightly.
"I'll miss you to Carey. Be sure to stay safe okay, and if you ever want to come home the doors are wide open for you." Bill said hugging his daughter back.
"I know, dad. I'll call you and mom right when I land, alright?"
"Alright, sweetheart. You better get going, your flight leaves in an hour."
"Okay. Bye dad. Keep mom safe alright?"
"Always," Bill reassured his daughter.
Caroline looked at her father once more before heading inside. This was really happening. She was going to the greatest city in the world with her best friends.
"Mr. Mikaelson, your brother Elijah is here to see you."
"Send him in, Sarah." Klaus said to his assistant angrily. This assistant was really a pain in the ass sometimes. She always tried to act as if she was some sort of saint.
"Yes sir." Sarah said before inviting Elijah in.
"Hello, Niklaus." Elijah said coming up to his brother and clapping him on the back.
"Hello, Elijah. What is going on?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to come by and say hello to my brother."
"You sure there isn't anything else you want to tell me?"
"Actually yes there is."
"I knew it, what is it?" Klaus rolled his blue-grey eyes at his older brother.
"You know Tatia, she and I began to date a while back."
"You're dating my ex-girlfriend?" Klaus asked shocked.
"Yes, but before you get mad, you knew that I always had feelings for her." Elijah quickly added.
"But she is my ex-girlfriend 'Lijah!" Klaus shouted angrily.
"So what, you dated my ex when we were teenagers." Elijah shrugged nonchalantly.
"That was a different story, brother." Klaus shot at Elijah.
"How is that any different?" Elijah shot back at his brother angrily.
"I don't know. Fine do whatever the bloody hell you want with her. Now can you go, I have work that needs to be done…" Klaus said pointing to the paperwork on his desk.
"Fine. Goodbye brother." Elijah said before getting out of the chair.
Klaus just ignored him and continued his work. A few minutes later he heard a knock on his office door.
"Who is it?" He yelled out angrily.
"It's—It's me sir." Sarah stuttered out frightened. She hated when Klaus would raise his voice and take his anger out on her.
"What do you want Sarah!?"
"I am here because I want to quit." Sarah finally said. She's had enough of him!
"You want to what?" Klaus asked as his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"Quit, sir. My husband and I are moving to California."
"Okay then, goodbye Sarah. Have fun in California."
"Thank you sir." Sarah said quickly before shutting the door behind her.
"No problem, love." Klaus said looking down at his paper work.
"You guys! We're here!" Caroline screamed out happily, looking out of the airport window.
"What?" Elena asked groggily.
"We're in New York! Why aren't you guys more excited about this?"
"Maybe because were tired from the flight?" Bonnie guessed.
"Oh please, oh my god I cannot believe that we are finally here." Caroline said squealing.
"Sh!" The older couple from behind said.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we will be landing in JFK airport in 5 minutes. Please fasten in your seatbelts, and sit tight.
Caroline put the belt on, faster than she thought she could and smiled. Caroline looked at the yellowing letter from Nik one last time, before giving it a kiss. Every time Caroline had that letter that was sent to her fifteen years ago from her best friend, it gave her luck.
"What is the Care?" Bonnie asked pointing to the letter curiously.
"It's a letter from my best friend Nik. We grew up together in the foster home."
"Oh I see. How old is it?"
"Fifteen years old." Caroline sighed.
"You still have a letter that was sent to you when you were eight?"
"Yep," Caroline shrugged.
"Wow, he must have been important."
"He was and still is, Bon." Caroline said irritated. Her friends would never understand how she felt growing up in that foster home. The teachers were nice but the other foster children treated her like shit. If it wasn't for Nik she doesn't even know what would come of her when she got out of that place.
"Were you in love with him Caroline?"
"I don't know… I was eight, but yeah I guess I was in love with him. He was the only one that was nice to me in that place."
"Do you know where he is now?"
"Nope, I haven't heard from him in fifteen years." Caroline said sadly.
"Aw, I'm so sorry Care." Bonnie said patting Caroline's shoulder softly.
"It's okay. How about we freak out over the fact that we will be on New York land in less than two minutes?" Caroline said cheerfully changing the subject.
"Yeah how about we do that!" Bonnie said happily.
"Is Elena really still sleeping?" Caroline said rolling her eyes at her best friend of twelve years.
"No she is not." Elena replied.
"Oh good, you're finally awake."
"Yep I am, Care."
We have landed safely, ladies and gentlemen. I hope all of you have a wonderful time in New York! The pilot said from the overhead speaker.
All of the people on the plane began to clap because they were happy that they landed in New York without any trouble.
"You girls ready for this?" Elena asked.
"As ready as I will ever be." Caroline said hugging both of her friends tightly.
"Sage, sweetheart can you please come in here?" Klaus asked, calling Finn's wife.
"Yes Niklaus, give me a minute."
A minute later Sage came into the office and sat down in the chair.
"What is it?" Sage wondered.
"I need you to find me a new assistant." Klaus told the red haired woman quickly.
"What happened to Sarah?" Sage asked confused.
"She quit." Klaus shrugged.
"Why? Were you acting like a douche bag again?" Sage asked a small smile on her lips.
"What! No I was not acting like a douche bag. She quit because she is moving to California in a little."
"Oh I see. I will begin to look for an assistant tomorrow, okay? I have to get going because I have to prepare dinner for my husband and my children."
"Alright Sage. Tell Finn, Harry, and Lilly that I say hello, okay?"
"Okay. See you tomorrow Nik!" Sage said waving at her brother-in-law.
"Bye." Klaus still remembered how Caroline would always call him Nik. He missed her dearly, even though it has been over a decade. He would never be able to forget his best friend that stuck by him in that terrible foster home.
Klaus recalled a memory of them sitting on the bench together with her curly blonde hair down and her piercing blue eyes shining. He knew that if he would ever have a chance to see her again, he would know it was her in an instant.
Klaus organized his desk, and decided to leave the office earlier. All he wanted to do was get home, and draw his best friend. He also wanted to read that letter she sent him all those years ago.
A few years ago Kol found Klaus' sketch book and he began to laugh at him because of his obsession over someone that he would probably never see again. Klaus couldn't stand the thought of his idiot little brother making fun of him and Caroline, so he punched him.
Klaus smirked at the memory, because after that little encounter Kol never brought it up again.
Klaus really only talked to Rebekah about Caroline as the years went by, because she understood him better than the others did.
As Klaus got into his BMW, he remembered the motto that both he and Caroline made up when she was five and he was seven.
Never say never,
There you go! So I gave you a bit of Klaus' life and Caroline's life :)
I hope you liked it!
