"Wait? What? No…No, and no, and did I say no!" Caroline exclaimed, while reading the small card and shaking her head, before picking her cell phone in top of her bedroom dresser. "Can it be possible to have a day off far away from him for once?" She mumbled angrily between her teeth at the same time she was pressing on her cell phone the speed dial number of the Mikaelson Manor Residence.
But the truth being told, since her return from Paris, 26 hours, 33 minutes, 24 seconds earlier, she hadn't stop thinking about the hybrid, not even for a second. She was actually exhausted thinking about him… And the kiss…And his mouth…And his lustrous lips… Because, thinking about a person that you really, really don't want to think about, is quite exhausting.
She closed her eyes, before closing her left fist in anger, while hoping that he would answer his residence phone.
"Whatever it is that you want, annoying person that you are, you are disturbing my well-being in a bath filled with foam!" Rebekah answered, while making Caroline roll her eyes to the ceiling.
"Rebekah, it's Caroline, is your brother home?" She mumbled, angrily, between her teeth.
"Oh, for God sake, get him out of your system, already! Sleep with him or something...Though I still don't understand why he would want to sleep with you…But, that is beside the point!" Rebekah exclaimed to Caroline, while looking at her colored toes in the gigantesque bathtub. "Weren't you together in Paris? What did you do there? You were holding hands?"
Caroline put her hand on her cell phone, while grumbling her frustration by stamping her feet on the floor, before putting the phone back on her ear.
"Can you give him a message?" Caroline asked, while biting her lips to help her keep her calm.
"Give it yourself, why don't you call his cell phone?" Rebekah asked.
"The reason is: because I don't have his cell phone number, Rebekah!" Caroline yelled at the Original.
"Ok, wait a second…" Rebekah replied to her, while getting herself in a sitting position in the bathtub. "You, both, had travelled together to the end of the world, but you don't have my brother's cell phone number?"
"Paris is certainly not the end of the world!" Caroline replied to Rebekah, before biting her lips. Why does she need to repeat the words of Klaus?
"Well, Then it's certainly not my problem that you don't have his cell phone number, isn't it?" Rebekah responded to her, while smirking and lying back in the bathtub.
"Rebekah, please, I need to reach him before tonight and I don't want to search the all city to find him." Caroline begged her.
"Why don't you ask the Salvatore brothers, they should have his number? Or, much better asked your doggy boyfriend, I'm sure he'll be willing to give it to you. Oh wait, you can't! That would mean telling him about the quality time you're passing with my brother. You've been a bad girl, Caroline." Rebekah giggled her response to her.
Caroline closed her eyes, while counting to ten in her head to calm herself down. What a bitch that Rebekah!
"You could also ask you friend Matt, but he was not too sold on the idea of my brother and you together." Rebekah told Caroline, while smirking and passing a sponge on her arms.
"What do you mean Matt was not too sold on the idea?" Caroline asked her, while opening her eyes widely, before hearing the bell ring, and directing her walk toward the front door.
"That he figured out that you are passing quality time with my brother." Rebekah told her.
"I bet if you hadn't opened your big mouth and bragged about it, Matt would still be in the dark about my relationship with your bother!" Caroline yelled at her, before holding her walking pace while noticing Matt who was staring at her through the glass window of the front door.
"Hey! Don't put your men problems on my shoulders!" Rebekah shouted back at her.
"Go to hell, Rebekah!" Caroline replied, while closing her cell phone and turning the handle to open the front door to her friend. "Hi!" She said, while smiling timidly to Matt.
"You have some serious explaining to do, Caroline." Matt said, while entering inside the house, before turning to face her, with his hands placed on each side of his waist.
"What's up, Matt?" She asked, while closing the front door, before biting her bottom lip, and turning on herself to face him.
"What's up? You've disappeared to God knows where for more than a day with Klaus…That what's up, Caroline!" He yelled at her, while gesturing with his hands. "What is wrong with you these days, for God sake?"
"What are you talking about, Matt?" She replied to him, while blushing and turning her head away from his insistent staring. She needed to think of something and quickly. "I did not disappear…I just left to see a family relative, where did you get the idea that I left with Klaus anyway?" She asked him, while gesturing with her hands.
"But, you told…I mean…You were supposed to study with Bonnie and then you couldn't be found?" He explained more to her.
"I left town at the last minute, Matt…I cancelled all my plans…What? You seriously thought that I took a plane to go, let say to Paris with Klaus…Pff….What is wrong with you, Donovan?" Caroline exclaimed, before rolling her eyes, while trying to convince him of her false sincerity.
"I don't know, Caroline." Matt said shamelessly, while nervously passing a hand through his blond hair, before adding. "Rebekah told me that her brother was out of the country, so I figured that it could be a possibility...I don't know what I thought."
"Rebekah… Why were you with Rebekah in the first place?" Caroline asked him while shrugging her shoulders.
"It's complicated, Care." Matt murmured, while lowering his sight away from hers.
"It's complicated…Since when Matt Donovan would put the word "complicated" in his life?" Caroline asked him, while raising one of her eyebrows.
"I wouldn't, Caroline. It's just that since the dance and the fact that she had lost her mother, I kind of understood from where she's coming from." Matt explained, while shrugging his shoulders, to which Caroline rolled her eyes to the ceiling.
"Be careful Matt, she is an Original snake; don't be fooled by her lovely puppy eyes and her act of damsel in distress." Caroline replied to him.
"She would hate hearing this from your mouth." Matt said, while winking an eye and smirking at her say, before turning the handle and opening the entrance door.
"Well, good, she has the tendency to get on my nerves, anyway." She added to him, while shaking her shoulders to get rid of the bad aura around her.
"Don't play games with Klaus, Caroline, especially now that the group is trying to find a way to get rid of him, and even more with Alaric lurking around." Matt warned her.
"Getting rid of Klaus would mean getting rid of all of us, Matt." She responded to him, while crossing her arms in front of her chest.
"I know, for the time being, it does, but, you never know for the future." He replied to her, while walking toward his old truck. "Hey Caroline, I'm happy that you were not in Paris with Klaus." He said, in a mocking tone of voice, while winking an eye at her.
"Like come on, Matt, could you imagine, me and Klaus in Paris, Seriously?" She exclaimed in laughter, while waving goodbye, before closing the door, and leaning her back on the wall, while putting a hand on her chest. "Oh my God, this was close!" She whispered to herself, before closing her eyes.
How could she hide her relationship with Klaus as of now?
"Well; aren't you looking handsome and dashing tonight, brother?" Rebekah noticed about Klaus, while entering all smile into the living room.
"What's with you, sister, all cheerful? Did you forget to take your "get on the nerve of everybody" pill today? The doctor has told you: one, each day…Don't you forget it." Klaus responded to her, while mocking his sister, before seeing Rebekah pass her tongue at him, and throwing a cushion, to which he avoid laughing.
He closed the buckle of his leather belt on his black trouser, perfect duo of short sleeves, black shirt, with the first buttons opened on his muscular chest. His hair was brushed backward with gel.
"Where are you going all 70'ish, brother of mine?" She asked him while sitting on one of the arms of the leather sofa.
"Not of your damn business, annoying sister of mine!" He responded, smirking.
She rolled her eyes, before losing her happy face a second later.
"Please, don't tell me you're going out ONCE AGAIN with her?" Rebekah exclaimed at him.
"That "her" has a name, Rebekah." Klaus replied, while staring madly at his sister.
"Come on, Nick, snap out of this obsession that you have for Caroline." She warned him, while rising on her feet and approaching Klaus's standing position. "She'll break your heart in thousands of pieces, and then she will give the pieces to her doggy boyfriend to finish you off. She is playing you for a fool and you're biting into her stupid game. One day she will turn on you, and leave you all pathetic and alone." She explained to him, while putting her right hand on his forearm.
"I'll never be as pathetic as you, sweetheart…If I think about my sister and her human minion, Matt Donovan." Klaus replied, slyly, while rolling his baby blues to the ceiling.
"Matt Donovan is nothing to me, get a grip Nick. I'm just having a little bit of fun with my human slave. I'm bored these days." She responded to him, while lowering her blushed cheeks, and shrugging her shoulders.
"See, you have your extracurricular activities, Bekah, and I have my grown up pastime!" He smirked, before walking toward the exit of the living room.
"She called you, you know…Your blonde friend." She informed him, before crossing her arms in front of her chest, while raising her chin in the air.
Klaus hold his pace, before turning his head and walking to reach Rebekah's sitting position, while grabbing her arms forcefully.
"Hey! What's your problem?" Rebekah yelled at her brother.
"Do you know what she wanted?" Klaus asked, while letting go of his grip on her arm.
"How should I know? I'm not her friend! She asked to talk to you, but you weren't here, so I've told her to call you directly. But, the stupid bimbo doesn't have your cell phone number." She explained to him, while rubbing her arm. "Damn, Nick! Get a grip on yourself would you?"
"Stay out of this, Rebekah!" He warned her, while bending his head and locking his sight with hers.
"Whatever "this" is? Nick, that's the point, I have no idea?" She replied to him.
"And you don't need to know, because it's not of your damn business." He mumbled to her, while walking toward the exit of the room, before grabbing his car keys on a console table and slamming the door behind him.
"Well, go to hell with your precious Caroline, then!" Rebekah yelled at him, while throwing a pillow to the closed door.
"Let me help you with the grocery bags, mama." Caroline suggested to Liz Forbes, while taking a bag from her hands, before walking toward the kitchen, with her mother walking on her heels.
"You are looking pretty tonight, what's the occasion?" Liz asked her daughter, while pulling groceries from inside the bags, before putting them away in the freezer.
Caroline stood motionless for a few seconds, before regaining her state of mind.
"Nothing special, just a night out at the Mystic Grill with the girls." She answered her.
"Well, I hope you'll have a lovely time. Tyler will be with you?" Liz enquired.
"No, he's kind of busy at home." She responded, vaguely, while shrugging her shoulders, before being interrupted by the doorbell.
"Oh, I'll get it, it must be Charlie. He is one of my colleagues at the police station. He needed to pick something up!" Liz explained to Caroline.
"No, you're busy, mama, let me get it, I'll let him inside." Caroline answered, all smile to her mother, while kissing her left cheek, before walking toward the entrance.
Caroline opened the entrance door, while freezing all her movements, an astonished expression plastered all over her face. She slammed the door at Klaus's face, before hiding herself behind the curtain, with a hand raised in front of her chest.
Klaus stared at the closed door in front of his sight, while shaking his head in disbelief.
"Caroline, Love…You just slammed the door into my face. I'm not in the habit of having doors being slammed on me this way." He yelled through the panel, while putting his hands on each side of the frame. "I'm waiting for you?" He added, in an angrier tone of voice.
How could she have forgotten about him, the date, and his intention of picking her up at her house? Well, for one thing, she had taken the last two hours to dress, put her makeup on, and style her hair…And to tell the honest truth, she had changed outfits at least five times since the last hour. And the final pick was: A pair of red Capri jeans, with a very tight white t-shirt, and a red scarf tied in her hair as a pony tail, white ballerina shoes where the finishing touch of this well put together ensemble.
She closed her eyes in total panic, while trying to find a way to get out of this unfortunate situation, before hearing the footsteps of her mother coming her way.
"Caroline, I'm still here, Love?" Klaus mumbled, angrily, between his teeth, while hitting the door several times with his closed right fist. "Come on...Are you ashamed of me, or what?" He yelled, louder.
"No!" She yelled back at him, while seeing her mother looking at her with wondering eyes.
"Who's behind the entrance door?" She asked Caroline, while putting her hands on each side of her waist.
"No one" Caroline responded, while swallowing a lump in her throat.
"Caroline, I think you should let me in, or, I will break down the door." He warned her. "Did you forget about our little agreement, Love?" He asked her, while lowering his head near the window glass, before seeing the door open in front of his eyes.
"And what agreement is that, Mister Mikaealson?" Liz Forbes asked the Original, while raising her chin in a confrontational gesture.
"Good evening Liz." Klaus greeted her, in surprise, while straightening his standing position and joining his hands together.
"Good evening." Liz replied to him, while keeping her stare in his. "Can we help you with something?"
This is not happening…This is not happening... Caroline was repeating in her mind, while rubbing her hands nervously together. She moved from her hiding place to stand beside her mother.
"It's a beautiful summer night." Klaus responded to Liz, while looking at the sky around him. "I'm here for Caroline, Liz." He explained to her, before crossing his hands behind his back.
"And what would be your purpose with my daughter?" Liz demanded, with a raised eyebrow.
"I have the highest respect for your daughter, if only you need to believe in one thing about me, believe in that, Liz" He replied to her, with a serious tone of voice.
"Then, let her live her life in peace, Mister Mikaelson." Liz responded to him, while keeping her stare in his.
"It's ok, mama…Really; there is no reason for you to get this upset." Caroline intervened, while putting a hand over her mother's right forearm.
"So, could you give me your real reason for being here?" Liz questioned Klaus, while ignoring Caroline's plea.
"Certainly, I would like to request the permission to take Caroline on a date?" Klaus asked Liz, while nodding his head.
"The answer is no." She replied, firmly, to him. "If you are here because you want to be repaid for saving her life, then ask me for a favor, not her. I could lie for you at the council, bribe people, whatever you'll need, but leave my daughter alone." She warned Klaus, in a louder tone of voice.
"It was never about that, Liz, and, I would never ask such a thing in return." Klaus responded, while shaking his head.
"Mum, it is ok, I'll be home early, I promise." Caroline offered as bargaining option, while nodding her head.
"It's still no! I don't want that man to have any power over you, Caroline." Liz replied.
Caroline raised her sight into Klaus's. She knew that she would have no other choices but to compel her mother to forget about this exchange, and she hated, in advance, every minute of it. She turned to face Liz, before being stopped by Klaus.
"Caroline, no…Let me." He suggested, before taking a few steps to reach Liz's standing position, and drowning his stare into hers, while compelling Caroline's mother to obey his wishes. "You'll go back to the kitchen, and you'll forget everything about this present conversation. You'll only remember that Caroline went out with her friends."
Liz nodded her head in approval to him, before turning on herself, walking into the corridor toward the kitchen. Klaus turned on himself to go back to the front porch of the house, before directing his walk toward his car.
Caroline closed her eyes and fists in anger, while grabbing her handbag placed on a hook, before closing the front door of her house and reaching Klaus's standing position, near his car.
"Why did you do that?" Caroline shouted, with all the anger she had retained inside of her.
"Because, I figured that you would highly prefer to hate me than hate yourself." He responded, while locking his eyes with hers.
"It was not your call to compel my mother, Klaus, it was mine." She added.
Klaus tilted his head to the right, while smirking at her.
"You're extremely beautiful when you are mad at me." He whispered, while noticing a redness reaching the roundness of her cheeks, before adding. "But you're right it was not my place to do it. I present you my apology, Caroline." He apologized, truthfully.
He was presenting is what? Caroline asked herself. Klaus Mikaelson, the hybrid Original was apologising to her – her, Caroline Forbes? She lowered her sight, while biting her bottom lip. Now what? He had just sincerely apologized to her, and unfortunately when he was right…He was right! And she could not even be mad at him anymore.
She crossed her arms in front of her chest, while shrugging her shoulders and rolling her eyes to the night sky, before noticing the white convertible car parked up front of her house.
"Is this yours?" She asked, while regaining her smile in a fraction of a second.
"Yes, Mercedez-Benz 280, Se 3.5 convertible" He proudly informed her, while smiling heavenly at the car.
"I don't know much about old car." Caroline shrugged her shoulders, while caressing the sheet metal of the car.
"I'll teach you." He responded, while opening the passenger door, and showing Caroline to take her sitting place inside. She sat with a big smile plastered on her face, while appreciating the red leather banquette seat, before seeing him close the door behind her, walking to the other side and take his own sitting position in front of the steering wheel.
She stared at him from the corners of her eyes. He was dressed all in black, with a retro look, and she could not hide it any longer to herself, he looked particularly stylish and hot tonight….Tonight, in Paris, in his house…He looked hot all the time!
He turned the key to start the engine, before driving to their destination.
"So…This is one of your new boy toys I supposed?" Caroline asked, while looking at the dashboard.
"Tsk…Tsk…No, no, Love, Irène is not a boy toy" He told her, while shaking his head.
"Irène?" Caroline asked him, completely dumfounded.
"My 1972 Mercedez-Benz convertible, Irène…" He replied to her, while smirking proudly, and keeping his stare on the route.
"You named this car Irène?" She asked him, while trying to hold her laughter.
"Don't look at me with those judgemental eyes, Love, instead take a look at her beauty, feel the softness of the leather seats." He suggested, while taking her left hand in his right, before opening her palm and directing her fingers to make her touch the luxurious leather. "Do you feel it? Do you feel the silkiness?" He asked, while creating intense shivers in her spine.
"It's nice" She responded, with flustered cheeks, while pulling her hand away.
"Oh it's more than nice." He responded to her, before adding. "She is the second beauty in my life presently."
Caroline turned her head to look at him in surprise.
"And who's the first?" She asked, while rolling her eyes to the sky.
"You" He answered her, truthfully, while raising his hand and caressing her hair.
Caroline turned her head to the other side, while blushing even more, before rubbing her hands nervously together. Why was he always able to have this exhilarating effect on her?
"So?" She asked, while trying to change the subject of the conversation. "Who's Irène? A past girlfriend, or a girl who wrote one of the love letters in your bedroom?"
Klaus stopped at a red light, before turning his head to stare at her in surprise.
"You've been to my bedroom?" He asked intrigued, while smirking.
Oh my God! Caroline Forbes what did you just do? She mumbled silently in her mind, while closing her eyes in desperation.
"You visited my bedroom, Love?" He repeated, while raising one of his eyebrows.
She kept quiet while counting back and forth to ten. In all the dumbest things you have ever said in her life, this was by far the dumbest of all, Forbes!
"You know…" He added to her, while smirking even more. "If you needed a full tour of the house, you should have asked me, my sweet Caroline. It would have been my pleasure to show my bedroom to you, because I know we are meant to saw it sooner or later." He added to her, while giggling in amusement.
She closed her eyes and fists in anger, before turning her head toward him.
"Could you just shut up for five minutes and enjoy the silence, and not say an additional word?" Caroline busted at him, while stomping her feet on the car's floor.
"See" Klaus responded, while smiling heavenly. "When you are mad at me like you are now, Love, it makes me think that you like me just a little bit." He added, while winking an eye at her.
"Seriously?" She mumbled, angrily, between her teeth, while rolling her eyes.
Klaus laughed at her annoyance, while parking the car, and turning the engine off. He faced Caroline, while sliding his right arm and hand behind her shoulders, on the top of the passenger seat.
Caroline felt his hand stroking the base of her neck with soft caresses of his fingers. She closed her eyes, while enjoying the intense shivers that were hitting her entire body every time he was touching her. She started to moan pleasurable sounds. Her mind was telling her to push him away, but her heart and body was battling other reasons for letting him continue.
"Caroline?" He whispered, with his mouth near her left ear.
"Mm…" She mumbled the sound to him.
"Come Love, our date is waiting for us. We'll talk about my bedroom later; I still want to know what you were doing there?" He told her, before letting go of his grip on her neck, and opening his driver door.
She reopened her eyes in surprise, while putting a hand on her chest, before raising her head to look at her surroundings.
"You brought me here to go bowling?" She asked Klaus, in shock, while getting out of the car, and walking toward him.
"You mind? You like bowling I hope?" He asked her, while tilting his head and smirking at her.
"Seriously, you want to go bowling?" She asked him, while crossing her arms in front of her chest. "I don't know what is your game, but why would you show me Paris, and then brought me to a bowling alley?" She asked him, completely dumfounded.
"Missing Paris already, aren't you?" He smirked, while inviting Caroline with a hand gesture to follow him toward the entrance of the building.
"That's not what I said!" She responded.
"But that's what I've heard." He responded, before opening the entrance door for her. "And, as for me playing a game, Love, I only wanted to show you that I could easily fill up the shoes of a small town boy with a small town life." He added, with a big smile plastered on his face.
"Small town boy don't drive a Mercedez-Benz convertible." She busted into his face, while raising her chin, in a confrontational gesture.
"It's only a small bonus." He responded, winking, before bending his body near hers, and murmuring into Caroline's left ear. "But the small town boy is not the Hybrid Alpha-man either, is he? Another bonus, aren't you a lucky lady tonight, Love?"
She raised an angry stare at him, before stomping her feet on the pavement, and storming inside.
"You want me to follow you all night?" Matt asked Rebekah, while leaning his left arm in top of the opened window door of his old truck, while driving at the speed of a turtle.
"Oh? Are you talking to me, human boy?" Rebekah asked, while turning her head to take a glance at Matt, before continuing to walk on the sidewalks.
"Rebekah, what are you doing wandering the streets alone this late at night?" Matt asked her.
"I needed air and I needed a walk to evacuate my frustration." She explained to him, before adding. "Why do you care?"
"Well, I don't know why I care, but I do." He replied to her, before adding. "So, get inside."
"Why aren't you with your good friend Caroline?" She asked him, while turning n herself to face the truck, before crossing her arms in front of her chest, and raising one of her eyebrows. "Oh wait! I know why, because she is at another date with my brother!"
Matt shook his head in disbelief, while closing his fists in anger.
"You know what, Rebekah? If you want to continue your lies, be my guest, but, I won't participate into your sick game anymore." Matt replied to her.
"What did she say to you? I bet she said that this was not even true? She is manipulating everybody: First my brother, then you, the Salvatore brothers, and her witch friend Bonnie, and most of all, Princess Elena!" She shouted at him, while walking toward the passenger door of his truck, before opening it, and sitting beside him, with her arms still crossed in front of her chest.
"Well, at least, you are finally sitting in the truck." He responded, while pushing the gas pedal.
"You are bringing me back home?" She asked him.
"Nope" He replied, while turning the radio on.
"You know that you can't bring me into an isolated spot in hope of killing me?" Rebekah said, while mocking him. "Because, being an Original and all…I can't be killed!"
"Are you sure? Damn, what a pity, I was hoping to get rid of your incessant talk once in for all." He responded, while smirking and keeping his eyes on the route.
She smiled, while passing her tongue at him.
"I saw that!" He informed her, while turning his head toward Rebekah.
"You did not call, why?" She asked him.
"Sorry?" Matt said, in surprise.
"Well, after you've kissed me, you did not call." She repeated, while shrugging her shoulders.
Matt stared at her for a few seconds, before explaining:
"You practically kick my ass out of your house."
"Well...I …I…" She stammered the words, while blushing.
"You can't treat people like that, Rebekah, even if you are an Original princess." He responded, while shaking his head, before seeing her turn her sight to the side window.
"You totally cheated at the last strike that you made!" Caroline said to Klaus, while taking place in the convertible, before crossing her arms in front of her chest.
"I certainly did not do such a thing!" Klaus responded to her, while taking his own place behind the steering wheel, and before starting the engine. "I played a fair game, not my fault if you can't lose, Love." He responded to her, while smirking.
"I certainly can lose! But, mister Alpha man needed to finish the game with a perfect score!" She responded, while making him burst into laughter.
"Well, it's true that my perfect accomplishment with tonight's game could be a bit disturbing for the novice that you are, Caroline. But how can I cheat? This game is the most stupid and easiest game invented since the beginning of humanity. You have a ball that you are throwing in the middle of a bunch of standing rounded sticks; you don't need to be extremely intelligent to figure that one out." He responded to his date, while raising a eyebrow at her.
"Why do you have to always prove yourself?" She asked the hybrid, while retaining her laughter.
"Because it's fun…" He replied, with a smile from ear to ear. "Are you having such a bad time with me in our date?" He suddenly asked, while taking her by surprise.
"No, why are you asking me this question?" Caroline asked, in a surprised state of mind.
"I'm asking because you're always finding excuses in this pretty head of yours, to not enjoy the time in my company." He truthfully said to her, while taking an exit route.
"Well, it's not like "this" is leading anywhere…We made an agreement with each other: Seven dates in exchange of freeing Tyler of your sire bond over him." She replied, before adding. "If I may add, there are only four dates left"
"I know how to count, Love." He replied, smiling. "And may I add that this present date is not ending…Yet!" He informed her.
Caroline turned her sight on the route behind them, while noticing that they had left Mystic Falls to take an exit route toward the lake.
"Where are we going?" She asked him, in a mix of excitement and fear.
"I thought we could take a car ride under this beautiful summer night sky…Do you mind?" He asked, while taking a glimpse at her.
"No, it's fine." She responded, while shrugging her shoulders and smiling back at him, before lowering her head on the luxurious leather seat to feel the wind caressing her hair and cheeks. She closed her eyes while enjoying this feeling of freedom. If she was honest with herself, she had a wonderful time tonight. And if she was even more honest with herself: she loved every date that she had shared with the Original, and she was not ready to leave Klaus yet.
"So, Love, why were you in my bedroom, in the first place?" He asked, while making Caroline opened her eyes in panic.
"Why did you bring me in here?" Rebekah asked Matt, while walking by his side, along the lakeshore.
"I don't know. I thought that we could take a time off." He replied, while throwing little rocks on top of the water reflection.
"Well…It's nice!" She replied, while smiling at him.
"You know, when you want to be, you can actually be a nice girl." Matt said to her, while noticing the redness on Rebekah's cheeks. "You want to sit?" He suggested, while taking off his coat jeans and putting it on the ground, for her to sit by his side.
"Thanks" She responded, while taking a sitting place by Matt's side.
"It's a full moon." Matt noticed, while raising his head to the night sky. "Did you see it?" Matt asked, while pointing his finger to the sky.
"Yes!" Rebekah responded, with a smile plastered on her lips.
"It's a shooting star, Rebekah. You should make a wish." He said to her, while taking a quick glance at her.
"No… I mean, it's not a good idea." She said, while losing her smile and shaking her head.
"Why not? It's really just a wish." Matt replied to her.
"I don't believe in wishing upon a star, Matt" She tried to explain, while losing her sight into the reflection of the moon in the lake. "I wished once in my human life, after we all have turned as vampire. I wished that we could turn back as humans, and my wish was never granted." She confessed, while passing the back of her right hand over her eyes, to dry the tears.
"I'm so sorry, Rebekah." Matt responded.
"Well, it's obviously in the past now." She answered, while returning a timid smile and rubbing her opened palms on her jeans.
Matt lowered his sight, while suddenly looking at the little rocks he was holding in his hands. He threw them on the ground, before sliding his right hand on Rebekah's left shoulder and slowly grabbing her neck to pull her toward him, before bending his head and putting his lips over hers.
She closed her eyes, while sliding her arms around his neck, and letting herself lie back on the ground, with Matt leaning in top of her. He moaned sounds of pleasure, before slowly sliding his tongue between her lips, invading her mouth to intensify their kiss, while rubbing his hands all over her body. She whispered his name, while sliding her hands under his t-shirt, on his back, feeling his muscles contract under her wandering fingers.
"What are you doing to me, Rebekah?" He murmured, in top of her lips, before raising his head, and drowning his eyes in hers.
"Kiss me!" She ordered, while caressing Matt's chin, to which he lowered his lips back on hers.
Thank you my dear Irène for saving my life! Caroline thought with her eyes closed and while making a silent prayer to the car, before taking a glimpse at Klaus who was turning the key repeatedly to start the engine, but without, unfortunately, any luck. The car was now parked on the side of an isolated route, near the lake, and was not willing to restart. Not that she was angry at this welcoming turn of event. Without this she had no idea what she would have answered to his question of: why she was previously in his bedroom?
"Do you have a problem with your "Irène", Klaus?" She asked, mocker.
"Don't you start mocking me, Caroline?" He warned, while staring at her from the corner of his eyes, before making a last attempt to make the car start.
"Irène you're not being nice to the Alpha!" Caroline yelled to the car, while retaining her laughter.
"Come on, Baby, you can do this!" Klaus addressed himself to the car, while opening his driver's door, and walking toward the front, before lifting the hood. "What's your problem, sweetheart?" He asked, while bending his head near the motor. "Could you give me a hand, Love, and try to start the car again?" He asked Caroline while raising his head to take a glimpse at her.
"Sure" Caroline answered, while sliding herself on the banquet seat, before turning the key and hearing the only sound of a bobbin noise coming from the motor.
"Damn!" She heard Klaus swear.
"It's not working?" Caroline yelled back at him, before getting out of the car and walking toward his own standing position.
"Nope" He replied.
"Well, did you try everything?" She asked him, while crossing her arms in front of her chest, before bending her head to take a look at the motor.
"No, I still have to look at the oil." He informed her, while pulling a rod from a bottle, before being splashed all over his neck and chest by the sprinkling oil. "Shit!" He exclaimed in fury, before stepping away from the car. "Damn" He swore more.
"Oh my God!" Caroline exclaimed, while putting her right hand over her mouth, "You have oil all over yourself." She added, while trying to retain her hilarity, before turning her sight at the car and adding. "Bad Irène, what did you do to your master?"
"Are you mocking me again, Caroline?" He asked, while twisting the corners of his lips and getting rid of his soiled shirt, before standing chest naked in front of her sight. Then, he passed the fabric of his shirt on his dirty neck, cleaning the black marks left all over his skin.
Caroline stood motionless at the view of Klaus's muscular chest. Damn this car! Now, she was stock in the middle of nowhere with the hybrid, while not being able to turn her sight away from his strong arms, his naked chest, his "V" pelvic trail that was starting just at the invisible mark of his hips…She blushed, while turning her sight away and taking a few walking steps toward the lake.
Klaus take a glance at his date, while arching one of his eyebrows. Obviously, the young vampire was more disturbed that she would admit to herself.
She rubbed her hands together, before closing her eyes and counting to ten. She needed to stop these crazy erotic images of him in her mind. And, why was she always so attracted to him in the first place, anyway?
Klaus closed the hood of the car, while rubbing his soiled hands on his shirt before throwing the fabric on the back seat. He took a few walking steps to reach Caroline, before sliding his hands around her waist, while lowering his head in the hollow of her left shoulder, his lips kissing a sensible spot on her skin, just near the blue vein.
Caroline closed her eyes, while enjoying the feeling of his naked chest glued to her back, spreading electric shocks through her shivering skin.
"Have you thought about our kiss since our return from Paris?" He whispered the question, near her right ear, while sliding his hands under her t-shirt, before caressing the velvety skin of her hips.
"Klaus, no…Please don't!" She managed to murmur the words, while contradicting her say by lowering her head on his shoulder to give him more access to her neck.
"Liar…You don't want me to stop, Caroline." He smirked, while softly biting her earlobe, sliding both of his hands form her hips to the roundness of her breasts, before turning her around in his arms to stare into her eyes. "Do you want me to kiss you again?" He asked, in a low murmur, while caressing her hair.
"No, yes…I don't know…" She replied, incoherently, with redness showing on her cheeks.
"Do you want to touch me?" He asked more.
"I don't know…" She replied once again, while closing her eyes, her mind in confusion.
She could not think for herself at the present moment, when all that she wanted was the exact opposite than what she was saying to him. And then, while debating with her eyes closed, she felt the softness of his lips nibbling on hers, in soft touches, with her own lips trembling underneath his.
"I don't believe you, Love." His lips whispered in top of hers, before deepening his kiss, while sliding his hands under her t-shirt, around her waist, before bringing her into a nearer proximity of his body.
She raised herself on her tip toes, while sliding her arms around his neck, with her hands buried into his golden locks, before slowly returning his kiss, while partially opening her lips, as an invitation to take her further into his passion.
He lowered his hands on her behind, before lifting her up on his hips. Caroline crossed her legs around his waist, before being carried away toward the car. He deepened his kiss by sliding his invading tongue in the sweet aromatic moisture of her mouth, while devouring her lips, before tracing a line of kisses along her jaw, down on her neck, and deep into her neckline. He opened the passenger door, before laying her on the back seat of his car. He heard the sweet sounds of his name being murmured on her lips, while feeling her hands caressing his hair.
He laid himself in top of her, while keeping his lips on her neck, before hearing her loud moan sounds of ecstasy.
"Caress me, Caroline…" He whispered softly, as a request, while grabbing her hands and sliding them on his bare chest, creating a discharge of electricity on her fingers, spreading a second later in her entire body.
She was lost in him….His touch, his smell, his kiss, with no chance of coming back to reality any time soon…Lost in this land of pure delightful sensations. She raised her hands on his chest, sliding her fingers very so slowly on his skin, his abs, while seeing him close his eyes under the pleasure of her touch.
He grunted pleasurable sounds, while appreciating the sensual power she had over him. She scratched the skin of his back with her nails, feeling all his tensed muscles respond under her fingers, her mouth finally touching, testing, and appreciating his scent, the salty taste of his skin under her lips.
He suddenly pushed her arms on top of her head, while sliding his hands on their lengths, detaching her headscarf from her ponytail, before binding her wrists together.
"What are you doing?" She asked him, in complete shock.
"Showing you what the world has to offer." He whispered back to her, with a smirk twisting the corners of his manly lips, before lowering his head and crashing his mouth on Caroline's.
Matt rolled his body on the ground, with Rebekah lying now on top of his own, his hands sliding on her back, underneath her t-shirt, while caressing the silkiness of her skin. His lips devoured her mouth, in deep, languorous and sweet kisses.
She rolled his t-shirt upward on his chest, while sliding her hands in circular movements, and making him growl sounds of contentment under her devouring lips. She straightened her position on him, while sitting on his hips, with her legs apart.
She lifted her t-shirt above her head, before throwing the fabric on the ground, while sitting in front of his sigh, dressed with her lace bra and her parted pulpous lips. She lowered her head, while lifting his t-shirt on his tone belly, before slowly sliding her mouth on his skin. Matt closed his eyes, while grabbing her hair and pushing Rebekah's head nearer to his skin, before suddenly straightening his body in a sitting position, and gently pushing her beside him.
"What…What's going on?" She asked him, in shock, while nervously passing a hand through her tangled hair.
"I can't do this." He responded to the Original, while shaking his head, before grabbing her t-shirt on the ground and handing it to her.
"What? What do you mean you can't do this, why?" Rebekah asked him, dumbfounded, while taking her t-shit from his hands, before dressing herself.
Matt rose on his feet, before grabbing his coat jeans on the ground and finally lowering his sight on her.
"I'll drive you back home, Rebekah." He responded, without any other explanation.
"What? You'll drive me back home?" She exclaimed madly to him, while gesturing with her hands. "If you find me so disgusting, why don't you say so, Matt Donovan?" She busted into his face, before starting to walk toward the truck, while trying to hold her anger and tears.
"Why would you say something as stupid as that, Rebekah? You think that I am rolling on the ground with each girl that I meet? You think that I am not attracted to you? You're wrong…I am attracted to you!" Matt yelled back at her, while walking on her heels.
Rebekah turned on herself, while pointing a finger at his direction.
"You are calling this being attracted to a girl! You've just rejected me…You're pathetic!" She shouted more at him.
"No, Rebekah, I call this: having enough respect for a girl to not take her on the mud ground near a lake!" He yelled some more, while trying to explain his point of view.
"Oh" She mumbled the word sound, speechless.
"Yes: "Oh"!" He repeated, while nervously passing a hand through his hair, before adding. "I can't handle myself around you, Rebekha…You bring parts of me that I did not knew they were even existing before. And, we are technically enemies, plus I can't stand your brother…So, it's a bit much to handle at the moment."
Rebekah shrugged her shoulders, while sliding a strand of her hair behind her left ear.
"You're right. This can't happen again." She agreed, while nodding her head.
Matt stared at her for a short moment, before turning his head to the right and suddenly narrowing his sight.
"What?" Rebekah asked him, while turning on herself, and looking toward the same direction he was looking.
"There's a parked car on the side of the route. I wonder if there could be people in some kind of trouble." He responded.
"Maybe he/she/they don't want to be saved from their car problems? Did you ever think of that?" Rebekah said to Matt, while following him toward the parked car.
"Well, the only way to know that is to ask them." Matt responded to her.
Rebekha froze at a couple of feet from the car, before opening her mouth in shock, and grabbing Matt's forearm to retain him.
"You can see that nobody is around, so can we go now, Matt." She begged him, while recognizing the car in front of her eyes.
"Let just take a look before leaving. Maybe someone fall asleep on the back seat while waiting for help?" Matt suggested, before taking a few more steps, before holding himself immobile.
"I'm sorry Matt. I've tried to warn you." Rebekah mumbled, while crossing her arms in front of her chest and lowering her sight.
In front of Matt: Klaus was laying chest naked on Caroline, her wrists attached with a scarf. They were looking at him with the same mouth opened – speechless expression.
"What the hell, Bekah?" Klaus shouted to his sister, while loosening the wrists of Caroline, before grabbing his soiled shirt and dressing himself.
"What? So this is my fault now?" Rebekah shouted back at her brother, while pointing a finger toward her own chest.
"I can't believe you lied to me!" Matt shouted to Caroline.
"Matt! I can explain this…This is not what you think it is, or what it looks like!" She tried to explain, while opening the passenger door, and getting out of the car.
"It's exactly what you think it is, Matt boy!" Klaus responded, while glimpsing madly at Caroline, before getting out of the car himself.
"No it's not!" Caroline disagreed, while putting her scarf back in her hair.
"Look at her, she don't even appreciate you!" Rebekah exclaimed at Klaus, while pointing at Caroline.
"I don't want to hear it." Matt said to Caroline, while shaking his head in denial.
"Listen to me; Matt…This is not serious….It is just a way for me to…" Caroline started to explain to him.
"Of course it is not! You are just playing with my brother." Rebekah lashed out at Caroline.
"Then what is it, Caroline? Are you selling your body to him, in exchange of favours?" Matt asked, while making her blush and lowering her sight.
"ENOUGH!" Klaus yelled at all of them. "And you!" He addressed himself to Matt. "Don't – ever - talk – to – Caroline – again – in - that –tone – of - voice, mate…Or you could breathing your last breath tonight." He warned him.
Matt raised his chin in the air, in a confrontational gesture, before feeling the hand of Rebekah on his right forearm pulling him away from Klaus.
"Bring me back home, Matt, Please!" She begged him.
Klaus turned his head toward Caroline, who was losing her sight in the lake, with her arms crossed over her chest.
"Bring Caroline home with you, and it is not a request, it's an order." Klaus ordered Matt, while narrowing his eyes on him.
"Bring her home yourself now that you are her boyfriend." Matt busted in his face.
"The car broke down, Matt." Caroline tried to make him understand.
"Damn!" Matt shouted, while closing his fists in anger, before turning on himself and walking toward the route, with Rebekah on his footsteps.
"Go with them." Klaus ordered Caroline, while staring into her eyes.
Caroline kept her sight in his for a few seconds, before lowering her head, and starting to follow their walking steps.
Klaus paced back and forth in front of the car, while nervously passing a hand through his hair, before hitting the side of his car several time with his feet to let go of his anger. He put his hands on the hood, while lowering his head for a few moments to calm him down.
He suddenly raised his head up, while smirking. Two thinks he was suddenly realizing: first: he had strike the second base with Caroline, second: they needed to have the fourth date away from Mystic Falls!
Damon Salvatore pushed the entrance door of the Mystic Falls Grill, while exiting the noisy crowd, with a bottle of alcohol in his left hand. He had thought that a couple of glasses of Bourbon would have eased his troubled mind, but in the contrary, it had only put his spirit in a sadder mood.
He took a few unbalanced walking steps toward a dark alley. Maybe a quick bite into a human neck would put a smile back on his face? But no, not even, nothing would at the present moment give him any kind of satisfaction or joy; his deep thoughts were completely centered on his friend, Alaric.
Alaric Salztman had turned his back on their friendship without even his own acknowledgement of it. He took a large gulp of his bottle, while being stopped on his walking pace, before lowering the bottle on the asphalt.
He then rushed at the side of the lying man, which was carefully placed near a trash can in the dark alley. He kneeled beside the disintegrated ashes body of what used to be: his friend Alaric, lying now dead, with a big hole in his heart. Damon closed his eyes, while feeling a range of intense emotions going through the deepness of his soul.
Something was missing in this picture, the only way to kill the new Original, Alaric, was with the ultimate weapon created by Esther, but Alaric had it in his possession since the beginning. Who could have done it?
