He felt himself stomping towards the exit desperate to get to the vehicle rolling his eyes as he heard the hurried footsteps of his sister and her assistant.
He had barely seen her in passing, she was altogether new to his small group which made him edgy of at least that's what he liked to blame it on instead of her piercing blue eyes.
With a sigh he pushed back the thought of her perfect pink parted lips a memory he kept from the first time they met and focused instead on the next few minutes.
Flashes began thanks to the mob of camera men and women outside as he heard Caroline mutter something about keeping a tight schedule that made his lip quirk.
The doors opened and instantly he felt himself tense his small pause caused his sister to run into his back and almost topple over into the crowd.
Another flash hit his eyes Klaus swore these sunglasses were only for show as a conversed-clad someone stepped on his foot as he tried not to get shoved again.
Klaus threw a small glare in Caroline's direction at the small stomping and she threw him an 'oh please' glare he half-smirked knowing him stomping on her feet would hurt more.
Still for her to treat him like that made him feel good considering most of his assistants before were only to happy to appease him even if he was at fault.
He turned his head caching sight of his sister as she pushed her way through with amazing durability especially in the outfit and shoes she had walked out in.
One girl he saw almost jumped Marcel his bodyguard they were this close to the SUV when the vehicle lurched forward without them and crashed into a water hydrant and it exploded before his eyes.
His stomach dropped as his only viable exit drove out of his grasp quite literally his head turning to his sister who was shoving a few people off of her boyfriend Marcel.
A thought appeared that maybe he should hire her for the next outing instead of Marcel as the noise went up a level people quickly realizing he was in the middle of the thicket.
The fans rioted in an instant as he felt a hand grab his firmly he gripped it unable to turn in that direction to see so Klaus wasn't sure who it was or where they were dragging him.
He nearly fell as he helped one woman up who then promptly dropped at his touch thrilled he shook his head at her as he moved faster.
It wasn't until he threw his head back his eyes widening at the sight of her, her hair bouncing in the wind as she got them through maneuvering their bodies like a master.
Klaus held her hand tighter as she pushed through saving him as he forgot about his luggage and everything only focusing on them both.
Her face turned worry marring her features as she drags him through the crowd his glasses falling a second later he swears he hears them crushed as they crouch and run.
He hears Marcel behind him yelling for him to 'go' and he kicks it into high gear his other hand grabbing her forearm as she leads them the other way.
He feels an elbow to his face and can only imagine how Caroline is holding up in front of him now that his fans seem to have caught on that she's with him and not a part of the crowd.
His hand quickly grips her at her waist maintaining their closeness as the situations intensifies and then finally he doesn't feel as if he's being groped from every angle.
It's the first time they've ever been alone and someone he's more nervous now than he was before impossible but true and it's all her.
"Where are we going?" he asks as she gives one final tug and they hastily run into an alleyway he hadn't noticed before.
"I'm kind of making this up as I go along," she says with little confidence as his fingers entangle with hers the crowd quickly gaining as they walk speedily.
Caroline feels like a computer that won't boot, 'Klaus Mikaelson is holding my hand' should not be the only thoughts running through her head.
"He's my boss and I'm not a weirdo fan wanting a lock of his hair," she tells herself thankful its still loud enough that he can't hear her and mad that she even said it outside of her mind.
Klaus smells unbelievable but seriously that wasn't the point she tells herself as she takes a deep breath her eyebrows shooting up as she hears noises from behind them.
"Quick," she says shoving him against the wall as a few of the remaining fans run past them her lips brushing his accidentally spiking her blood pressure.
Klaus licks his upper lips as she tries not to think anything of it focusing instead on the crowd of people a few feet away from them searching.
He shifts against her crowding them both into the corner they have hid themselves in as she hears one say, "Is that him?" Caroline looks at him in panic.
"Sorry," she whispers against his lips as she presses her lips to his her eyes rolling back at how his lips feel against hers.
Her eyes roll back to keep from moaning as his fingers weave through her hair his head tilting as he kisses her from another angle as the crowd passes.
They hide in the shadows looking like two lovers instead of what they really were assistant and boss that thought is like a wet blanket over the warming heat building in her stomach.
It's the one thing that makes her stop kissing him as his lips linger over her face, "Thank you," he whispers in her ear as it grows quiet.
He groaned deep in his throat the moment her lips touched his it was a clever idea one that had been played out in a few of his films but he'd never done it before.
Not with someone that made him feel like the characters in his film felt, his eyes fluttered shut that instant feeling her body pressed to his.
The fog clears making him shiver as she speaks, "Not a problem," she replies as drops her hands from his chest refusing to meet his eyes as she takes a small step back giving him some space to breathe.
Their eyes locked as she tucks her hair back into her ponytail and fixes her green jacket his body tingles with excitement, he vaguely wonders what is happening to him.
His back feels like its glued the brick behind him keeping him from moving on from the moment it when she fixes him with look that he makes an effort to move.
"You know that's the look you give Geniveive right before you take her in your arms and kiss her in the first Kiss Me Or I'll Kill You movie." Caroline tells him as she crosses her arms.
Klaus smirks in victory, "I thought you didn't watch my films," he comments wishing he could see the pink coloring of her cheeks as she laughs nervously.
She really hates him, she thinks as she shoves him softly hearing him grunt as he bounces off of the wall and uses the action to spring forward.
"Well I'm a sucker for vampire hitmen flicks," she says as he draws closer his hands reaching for her as she walks backwards and he strides forwards.
"I wish they'd let you keep you accent though," she remarks as her hands go up his chest pressing against her fingers.
"You like it, do you?" Klaus asks as his hand caresses one of hers over his chest her mouth falls open then clamps shut making him want to eat the grin forming on his lips.
"I mean it's- it's not bad," she stutters as he touches her hands running them down his front until she's hugging him to her, "Like beer goggles,"" she blurts as she smells him again.
Klaus chuckles as his hands ride up her arms massaging her as she mewed his face leaning against hers as he holds her neck and cups her face.
"I feel the same way about your laugh," he admits their mouths an inch apart, "To put it shortly it makes me fervent," he tells her, "The happy lines it makes I spend so much time trying to recreate."
Caroline feels the wind get knocked out of her, "We should be heading back, I think I dropped my phone," she sputters as she grasps for a reality because this can't be it.
She wracks her brain trying to think whether or not she got hit in the head earlier and if so how hard as his eyes search hers.
His hands on hers heating her up as he shakes his head, "They can wait a little longer," he tells her as his lips brush her quivering lip once his nose pressing against hers.
"But the schedule," she pants as her chests pushes against his with every breath he smiles nodding softly, "Klaus," she sighs as he kisses her again.
"We'll make it," he murmurs in between kisses as Caroline gives into him feeling that he means more with those words than just the schedule.
