The next morning Caroline was exhausted and didn't feel like getting out of her warm and cozy bed, but she knew she had to.

She looked at her cellphone and saw that there was a new text message. Caroline unlocked her phone and opened up the text message. It read: Need a ride ;)? –K.

Caroline smiled at the text and quickly replied saying Sure, why not? –C.

When should I come? –K.

30 minutes? –C.

Okay, Care Bear J. –K.

Caroline smiled and put her phone down. She ran into her bathroom and decided to take a quick shower. This was her first day, working for her best friend. Caroline really hoped that she wouldn't disappoint him.

After Caroline showered, she picked out an outfit out of her closet. Caroline decided to wear a black tank top with a white blazer and a black skirt. She then quickly took out her make up kit, and applied some eyeliner and mascara to her eyes. She put on lip gloss as well.

Once Caroline was done, she ran into the kitchen and grabbed a banana. Her phone vibrated, and she unlocked it.

The text read: Come out when you're ready. I'm already here ;). –K.

Coming! –C.

Caroline grabbed her purse and left her apartment. Once Caroline was downstairs she saw Nik in his car. She walked towards the car, and once Klaus saw her approaching him he got out of his car and smiled her.

"Good morning, Care Bear. You look lovely." Klaus said to his best friend.

"Why, thank you." Caroline said smiling at him.

Klaus went to the other side and opened the door for Caroline. Caroline blushed because no one has ever opened a car door for her. "Thank you." Caroline said.

"No problem. Would you like some coffee before we get to work?"

"Yeah sure, but this time it's on me."

"Sure it is, love." Klaus said while he put on his seatbelt.

There was a Starbucks Coffee, across the street from the building and they went in there together.

"Next customer, please step up." The guy who was working there said. "What can I get you two?"

"What would you like Caroline?"

"May I please have a small hot caramel latte?"

"Yes you may miss, and what would you like, sir?"

"Um, let me get a caramel macchiato"

"Coming right up. What is your name?" The boy asked Klaus.

"Klaus." Klaus said. "How much?"

"Eight dollars, sir."

"Alright." Klaus said getting his wallet out before Caroline could. "There you go."

"Thank you, sir, please go over there and your drinks will shortly be ready."

"Thank you." Klaus said, before they walked away.

Caroline was pouting at Klaus and he didn't understand why. "Something wrong, Care Bear?"

"Why don't you let me pay?"

"What kind of gentleman would I be if I would make a lady pay?"

"A normal one?"

"I don't like normal, Care. You should know that from our childhood."

"Yeah, yeah, I know."

"Good, now please stop pouting."

"Fine. Thank you, Nik."

"No problem." Klaus said handing Caroline her latte. "Let's get going. It is your first day of work. How would it look if you were late?" Klaus asked teasingly.

Caroline rolled her eyes playfully and followed Klaus out of the coffee shop.

"Klaus! Miss. Forbes! Good morning." Sage said with a genuine smile on her face.

"Good morning, Sage." Klaus said to his sister in law.

"Good morning! Please call me Caroline."

"Okay, Caroline. Good luck with him." Sage said looking at Klaus.

"Thank you." Caroline said. She liked Sage; she seemed to be like a nice woman.

Once they got up to his office floor, Klaus showed Caroline her new desk.

"So this is where you will be working." Klaus said.

"Seriously?" Caroline asked excitedly. She didn't have a cubicle like the others, she had an office.

"Yes. Do you like it?"

"Hell yeah!" Caroline said a little too loudly. "Woops." Caroline mumbled, once she noticed the others looking at her weirdly.

Klaus laughed and said, "So for now I just want you to go through the computer programs and get used to them."

"And that's it?"

"Yep, that's about it."

"Okay, boss." Caroline said smiling at Klaus.

"I should get going to my own office, good luck Miss. Forbes."

"Thank you." Caroline said before Klaus walked off.

For the next two hours Caroline got familiar with the computer programs. She had to know how to use excel because it was pretty important in the finance business. After a while, she headed to the rest room because she needed a breather.

She still couldn't believe that she really found a job and finally reunited with Nik. Never in a million years did she think that she would see Nik again and he would recognize her. Caroline always feared that he forgot about her.


Tatia came storming into Klaus' office before anyone could stop her. Caroline was still in the rest room so she hasn't seen Tatia.

"What the bloody hell?" Klaus asked. He didn't understand why Tatia was in his office.

"Hello Nik." Tatia said smiling at Klaus sweetly.

"Don't call me that."

"Why not? You always loved it when I called you Nik especially in bed."

"Yeah, well now I don't. What the hell are you doing here Tatia?" Klaus asked angrily. He didn't want this whore around him anymore.

"Well aren't you angry this morning? I think I could help you release your anger." Tatia said going over to Klaus' chair and putting her hand on his shoulder.

"Get the fuck out Tatia. I don't want you."

"Sure you don't. Come on, Nik. Let me help you out." Tatia said mischievously.

"Why are you here!?" Klaus asked again even angrier.

"I missed you." Tatia said simply while she kissed his face.

"Get away from me, you bitch. Aren't you with Elijah?"

"Yes, but I want to be with you to."

"Not happening." Klaus said jumping out of his chair and going over to the opposite side of the room.

"So we're playing cat and mouse now? I like it." Tatia said walking over to Klaus once again.

She grabbed his face and began kissing him, fiercely. Klaus wasn't responding to her kisses and that made Tatia want him more.

"I like when you act like you don't want me." Tatia said biting her lip.

"I'm not acting." Klaus said through gritted teeth.

"I want you, Nik."

"If you wanted me then you shouldn't have fucked your boss."

"Get over it. Don't act like you didn't cheat on me."

"I NEVER CHEATED ON YOU, TATIA!" Klaus shouted loudly.

"Let's make up Nik. Come on please?"

"No, get out right now before I call security."

"What are they going to do? I'm not leaving here until you succumb to me." Tatia said while she tried to undo his belt buckle.

"It's not going to happen!" Klaus said pushing Tatia away.

"Yes it will. I need you, babe. Please?"

"No you little bitch."

"Yes." Tatia said unbuckling Klaus's belt buckle. Klaus tried to push her away, but she held onto him firmly. She began to untie his tie, and unbutton his shirt. "I will get what I want, Nik. You know I always do."

"Leave me alone Tatia!"

"No, I want you and I will get you whether you want to or not."

"What makes you say that?" Klaus asked sharply.

"Because I know you want me to." Tatia said sucking on Klaus' neck.

"Oh my god." Klaus heard from the front of the room. He turned and saw Caroline standing there looking shocked.

"Oh my god." Caroline said again. She couldn't believe that this was happening. Her best friend was about to fuck some slut right in his office. How could he do that to her?

Klaus finally pushed Tatia away from him and walked towards Caroline.

"Stay away from me, Nik." Caroline said seriously.

"So is this your new whore, Niklaus?"

"Shut the fuck up, Tatia." Klaus said angrily. "Care Bear, this isn't what you think it is! Please hear me out!"

"No, I can't." Caroline said running out of the office and into the elevator.

"Caroline! Wait, please!" Klaus said. Klaus quickly fixed himself and ran down the stairs. He couldn't let Caroline think that he lied to her.

Once the elevator was on the first floor she ran outside. She couldn't believe this.


There you have it! I know Caroline has no right to act like this because they're not together but she's shocked and she actually believed that Klaus wouldn't hurt her like that.
