Chapter 13
A/N: This is an AU story for the vampire diaries. I do not own the vampire dairies.
Klaus was drawing in his sketch book when he heard it. Caroline's scream, it made his heart clench and inside he seemed to panic. Without another thought he flashed to her room and opened the door. He looked over to where Caroline was with Damon on top of her? Klaus felt anger and rage run through his veins, he flashed over and grabbed Damon ripped his liver out. He grunted and fell to the ground. In the next second Damon was up but didn't seem that wounded by Klaus's attack. He smirked. And Klaus noticed something different about Damon his eyes were bloody red and before Klaus could do anything Damon flashed out of the room leaving them. He had no idea what was going on but he was sure as hell going to rip his organs out if he found Caroline hurt. Klaus turned to Caroline who looked down and held herself together. Despite her emotions turned off she looked slightly vulnerable in some way. She didn't look up.
"Love, are you alright?" He asked. She swallowed hard.
"I'm fine…" She said. Damon or someone else had brought back memories that she had wished had never happened. And for a second it had felt real. Klaus sat on the bed next to her.
"Love, talk to me," She sighed and gave in. She just needed to tell someone it was always trying to come out. But she had never thought the person that she would tell was Klaus.
"I know that wasn't Damon. But whoever it was was reenacting something that happened when I had been human." She explained. Klaus stared at her. "I was stupid as a human." Klaus looked at her confused. She was not stupid that was for sure but she wasn't finish. "I was stupid, shallow I wasn't the best person when I was human. Elena has always been the one to get the guy. And when Stefan came to town he flat out rejected me. I was upset and kind of drunk one night. I met this guy who actually seemed interested in me. And so I jumped at the chance. The very next day I found myself covered my very own blood. I tried to escape but he caught me. I mean he was a hundred year old vampire against a seventeen year old girl. I just remember bits and pieces from it when I was human. The compulsion had been messing with mind confusing me. He basically used me as a blood bag and…he would shove me down on the bed. No matter what I did I couldn't escape and I would wear a scarf around my neck and not know why I couldn't take it off." She shook her head. Klaus couldn't believe this, had Damon raped her? The thought made him want to rip him to shreds. "He would bite me and not heal me. I knew he was going to kill me he kept telling me he would."
"He's dead." Klaus said. Caroline looked at him.
"No, don't. It was in the past. I have been trying to forgive him for Elena's sake." He stared at her.
"For Elena's sake? Sweetheart even if she now has humanity on she still tried to kill you." She sighed and brushed a strand of blonde hair behind her ear.
"I know but-
"Caroline, it's one thing to kill but to take advantage of a woman that's something else. And if anything that is truly evil." Klaus said. Nobody had ever questioned what Damon had done to her. All they knew was that he had tried to kill her. They didn't know the details. But here was the most dangerous creature in the world telling her that Damon shouldn't have done what he had did.
"Perhaps he didn't deserve to get off the hook." She said.
"I will kill him slowly." Caroline grabbed his arm.
"No, I mean I know you can probably not even blink and kill him. But don't kill him, I mean I have put it in the past but sometimes I would really like him to know how much I hated him for it." Klaus groaned.
"I won't kill him, but don't think that I won't do something. He doesn't deserve to get away with what he did." Klaus said. Caroline sighed. She knew she wouldn't be able to change his mind. And a part of her didn't want to.
"Thanks for saving me." He nodded.
"Always," And she knew that he meant it. "You should probably get some sleep." He said. She nodded and he stood to leave when she grabbed his arm.
"Stay please." He glanced to her unsure till she moved over and began dragging him into the bed with her. She didn't dare think about what she was doing was probably wrong. She moved over and snuggled into his chest. Klaus had been quite surprised. But slowly shut off the light and began to close his eyes holding Caroline in his arms. Caroline knew that things were getting strange around here and that she was lying in someone who actually cared about her and didn't pity her. Could that be what she had wanted? To stop being alone and the only way that she could have dealt with being alone was turning it off. 'Click' She breathed and snuggled into Klaus's chest further.
Meanwhile Elena sat in the kitchen staring at the surface of the table. She had almost been killed by Caroline. Was Caroline really that far gone? She thought. She wanted to help her friend. But she didn't know how or what to do. Elijah walked in with a blood bag and handed it to her.
"Thanks," She said. He nodded.
"How are you doing?" He asked.
"Not so well. My best friend has turned off her humanity and by her turning off her humanity it has shown me that I wasn't that good of a friend all those years." She said taking a sip.
"I am sure when she turns it back on you two will be friends once again." Elena sighed.
"I know but everything that Caroline said was true. I mean what kind of friend am I? She's right really." She said.
"Just because you made some mistakes in the past doesn't mean, you can repair you friendship with her. You just need time and try to be a better friend." Elena turned to him and nodded. She gave him a shy smile.
"Thanks Elijah, you really do always know what to say." Elijah nodded to her. And Elijah seemed to hold her gaze as they looked deep into each other's eyes. Elena felt something stir inside of her that she hadn't felt before really. And swallowed hard.
"Well isn't this romantic," Said a groggy voice. They turned and Elena blinked twice taking her in. Her hair was slightly a mess her clothes ruffled. Elijah swallowed hard.
"Katerina," She smirked.
"Miss me?"
Note: So there you go. I just love using cliffhangers and look who showed up. Just so you know I am doing the majority of the votes for Elijah with someone. So the next chapter Elijah will be with either Elena or Katherine. Reviews thanks. I will also be updating original drabbles. Check it out later. J
