Caroline's POV

Here comes the first wave.

I immediately lay on my stomach and started paddling, positioning myself perfectly in the centre of the wave. Luckily, the wave caught my board perfectly, and I stood up with ease, all my former surfing instincts returning to me. Before I knew it, I was riding the wave with ease, and I started even doing tricks. Oh yes, it was my first wave, and I, Caroline Forbes, Vampire-Barbie, was doing a handstand on my surf board. Beat that original ass!

Klaus' POV

She was truly a beauty to behold. The little cheat had told me she'd never surfed before, and here she was doing a handstand on her very first wave. Well sorry sweetheart, but I never go down without a fight. Oh wait; I never actually go down.

I awaited the next wave, and got my balance correct, ensuring that I wouldn't just slip off my board. The wave caught me, and in seconds a was standing up. I eventually caught Caroline's eyes, and just to irritate her, I did a one handed handstand, knowing that she would try and argue about copying her later.

For the next 20 minutes, both me and Caroline caught every wave we could, both of us trying to put the other off. By the time we were finished, it was safe to say that even though we were vampires, we were incredibly tired.

"Just saying, it's totally obvious I won that. You just copied my amazing moves," she smiled sarcastically at me, and I realised she was partially serious.

"Sorry love, but you're just not as talented as me. Maybe in a thousand years." I was laughing with her.

We were slowly walking back to the hotel, and I noticed the sky had gotten a lot darker. We'd been out all day, and it was actually almost midnight, the brightness of the stars was truly stunning, but the angel in front of me outshone every one.

"Pfffft, if I live that long buddy. You forget I live in Mystic Falls, you know the town that's being attacked every five minutes? We all know I'm gonna be sacrificed to someone in return for Elena's safety sooner or later." She smiled jokingly as she spoke the words, but i could hear a bitter edge to them too.

Unexpectedly, a large amount of rage began building inside me, no one will ever harm MY girl, not while me and my undead heart roam this world. Why doesn't she see that? Why doesn't she understand how much I care?

I grabbed her by the wrist, so she spun round and faced me.

"Caroline, love, this is my promise to you, every single second that I exist this earth you will too. No one, will ever hurt you again, or they will have me to deal with. You are perfection love, you are never to be a second option. What have those idiots done to you?"

She began to well up, and I wondered if I'd said the right thing. Then I saw the smile emerging on we face and I released a long sigh I relief.

"Klaus...Why do you say things like that? You make it so hard for me." Her voice was a broken whisper, and I had the utmost desire to scoop her up, carry her to the hotel and show her what she truly meant to me.

"I make what difficult sweetheart?"

"Hating you. I should hate you, after all you've done, and I want to, so badly. But then you show me your humanity and you show me that you can be saved. And it makes me feel things, things that I don't want to feel! It's so confusing!" She began rambling towards the end of her speech, but I heard all her words loud and clear. They gave me a fresh boost of confidence...maybe I did have a chance?

"Love, give in. Why won't you give me a real chance?" The curiosity was burning inside me like a raging fire.

"Because Klaus. Firstly, the guilt keeps getting to me. Think of what Elena would say? She hates you, you know! And I can't do that to her, I can't break her like that. And secondly, I'm scared. Scared that one day, you'll go too far, that you'll do something that I just can't forgive, because if you did that, you'd be breaking my heart as well as your own. I can't do this Klaus."

Her words stung more than a thousand stakes, but I knew she was right. I saw the tears in her eyes threatening to spill at any moment. Seeing that controlled the anger bubbling inside of me, I wouldn't lash out, I would show her that maybe I could change? For her benefit I would do everything I could.

And so I have into my desires, and I just quickly scooped her up and into my arms. Her head was rested against my chest, arms around my neck. She was about to feebly protest when I silenced her with a quick kiss on the lips. Well it was intended as a quick kiss, but it changed into another passionate reunion. Again I felt the sparks that no one else had ever given me.

Eventually I pulled back, and I saw a small smile grace her lips.

"Love, if it meant winning any place in your heart, I would do anything on this earth. Just say the word and it's done." I whispered quietly into her ear.

She didn't respond, yet simply nuzzled into my chest. I slowly walked us back to the hotel and lay her on the bed.

In the short 5 minute walk, she had already fallen asleep, and I couldn't bring myself to leave her. I lay down silently next to her, and I too fell asleep shortly afterwards.

That night I had dreams of only one thing, the thing I needed more than anything else; the day Caroline would become my wife.

I'm sappy I know, but I couldn't help myself! Thank you to all readers, drop me a review if you like! Next chapter will be up in roughly 5 days!

Until Next Time,
