AN: Yes I have updated. I know it's been a while. To the creepy anon that spammed me to death with your demands to update months ago, that was kinda creepy and made me not want to come anywhere near this story at all. You had the absolute opposite effect, so in the future, don't do that again. No beta still. see you at the bottom where there will be another longer note.
Caroline walked up to the door and stood there for a minute debating if she wanted to knock or not. It had been a week since she was here. A week that she had to think. Part of her wanted to run in the other direction and never look back, while the other part of her wanted to see what was on the other side of the door. She didn't know what to do.
The door opened and Caroline yelped in surprise.
"I was wondering if you were going to come in or not" Klaus said
"I wasn't sure if I should or not"
Klaus was painting, there was paint on his clothes, on his pants and his grey henley. Caroline stood there nervously.
"The door is open for you" Klaus said
"I know"
"Then what's stopping you?"
Caroline looked at the ceiling again. She really had to stop doing this. Every time she stepped into Klaus's apartment she ended up having sex with him, repeatedly. Then she'd be filled with regret and remorse, and be too embarrassed and flustered and angry to talk to him. Klaus seemed to be happy with what he could get.
"We can't keep doing this" Caroline said looking at the ceiling
"Doing what?"
"This"
"By this do you mean you coming over, getting mad at me, and then spending the rest of the day naked in my bed?"
"Why do you always have to do that?"
"Do what love?"
"Be so damn cocky!"
"I can't help it"
"I can't be here!" Caroling sat up and got off the bed
"Was that not satisfactory? Was it not to your liking? I can try something new if you'd like"
"No! Stop! We're not doing that again! I don't know what the hell I'm doing here!"
Caroline grabbed her clothes, and started down the stairs. Klaus got up and chased after her.
"Where are you running off to? Am I really that dirty of a secret?" Klaus said
"What do you want from me!?" Caroline screamed
"I just want you, why is that so hard for you to understand?"
"Because you lied to me, because we're not kids anymore"
"But I still want you regardless. I don't care what happened with Damon, or Tyler or anyone else. You're here now, and I want you"
"How are you so horny?"
"It's not just the sex, which is quite mind blowing, it's you Caroline, it's always been you"
Caroline walked into her apartment and saw a large box on the table. She saw there was a card with her name on it. She opened the box and looked inside. She looked at what was inside with confusion and then looked back at the card. Inside was a time and location and a piece of candy attached. Caroline shook her head and closed the box.
"What are you doing?" Bonnie asked
Caroline spun around and saw her standing there.
"Aren't you suppose to be out somewhere?" Bonnie asked
"What? No"
"Well we don't have any candy and I'm not staying in tonight"
"Where you going?"
"No you can't come along, and I know someone's waiting for you"
Caroline walked through the crowded streets. She felt silly for wearing a costume, but then it was Halloween so everyone was in costume. She looked down at her pink glittery costume. Of course it would be pink. She looked like a pink Tinkerbell. At least the wings were white with silver markings on it. She put her hair up and put more glitter on. She walked through the streets looking for the place written on the card.
"Hello sweetheart"
Caroline spun around and saw Klaus standing there, dressed as a pirate. She laughed a little, covering her mouth.
"Nice hat" Caroline said
"I see you went crazy with the glitter. Come, I found us a balcony to watch the parade from"
"You did?"
"Yes, an old friend of mine lives around here"
"Really? She hot?"
"Actually it's a he"
Klaus led Caroline towards a building. They walked in and walked up the steps and into someone's apartment. There was a party already in full swing when they walked in. Klaus held Caroline's hand and led her to the fire escape. They both stood out there watching the Halloween parade. Klaus looked over at Caroline, covered in glitter and pink. Some things never changed.
"Why did you pick these costumes?" Caroline asked
"You don't remember?"
"I remember you knocking Damon with your plastic pumpkin that Halloween"
"I remember you that day. It was the first day Elijah took me out of the house. He took me inside that costume shop and told me I could be whatever I wanted. So I choose to be a pirate. And then I saw 2 boys running around, knocking over a little blonde girl, dressed in pink. The little blonde girl started to cry"
"I remember, I thought you couldn't talk"
"You just wouldn't let me get a word in. You were the most magnificent pink fairy I had seen at the time"
"I wasn't that pink"
"Oh you were. I think everything on you was pink. I'm surprised your hair wasn't pink"
"I don't think my mom would have let me"
Caroline awoke slowly. She pulled the blanket closer to her body. She turned around and saw Klaus sleeping next to her. She saw he was covered in glitter. She sat up and then realized she was covered in glitter too, along with the sheets. She looked around the room and saw there was glitter everywhere. She held her head and tried to remember what happened last night after the parade. Klaus reached out for her and pulled her closer.
"Klaus!" Caroline yelled
"Too early"
"Why are we covered in glitter?"
"You were the fairy, you tell me"
There was a buzzing at his door. Klaus groaned. There was banging on his door.
"Klaus open up!" a male voice yelled
"Come back later!" Klaus groaned
Caroline pulled the blanket closer to her body.
"Who is that?" Caroline asked
The door opened and footsteps could be heard walking into his apartment.
"Klaus! You better not be sleeping still!" a man's voice said
"Go away!" Klaus said
Caroline saw a man coming up the stairs and stop at the foot of the bed. Caroline covered herself to her neck with the blanket. Klaus didn't care and was still trying to sleep.
"Klaus, I got another gallery show" Marcel said
"Great" Klaus said with his eyes closed
"I see what's keeping you busy these days. Anyways, I got it in our own gallery. I got the place!"
Klaus shot up.
"You what?" Klaus asked
"I got the place! It's ours!" Marcel said
"This calls for celebration!" Klaus jumped out of bed
"Put some clothes on please. We're friends, but not that kind of friends" Marcel said backing away
"Does my male body make you uncomfortable? I thought you were more open minded than that" Klaus teased
"I'm sure your lady friend likes your male body, now put some clothes on and I'll meet you downstairs" Marcel said
Klaus turned around and jumped back into the bed, causing it to bounce. He grabbed onto Caroline and she squealed.
"This has been a great morning!" Klaus said
"Why the hell is there glitter all over the place?" Marcel yelled
Caroline walked into the building that would be Klaus and Marcel's new gallery. It was still under construction, but Klaus and Marcel were busy inside deciding on what piece should go where. She watched as they two of them talked and pointed to places on the walls. Klaus paused for a second as if he could tell she was there and turned around.
"Caroline" Klaus said walking over to her
"Hey. I was in the area. So this is what it looks like"
"So far, there's a bit of work that needs to be done"
"So I'm going home for Thanksgiving, you can come with me if you'd like"
"I'm not sure if your mother wants me in your room again. I remember she had thought the worst that time I was in there, accusing me of taking her daughter's virginity"
"She did not!"
"Not in so many words"
"You should come"
"Not sure if I'm ready to go back just yet. Do the Lockwoods still host Thanksgiving?"
"I'm not sure, but if you come with me you can find out"
"Or you can stay here with me"
"And do what? Stare at your ceiling?"
"Marcel is quite the cook, rather he knows a few cooks. You can invite Stefan over, I can accuse him of being a pedaphile again"
"Well Stefan doesn't want to go home, the whole Damon and Elena thing. But I should go see my mom"
"So invite dear old mom up here then"
"Fine, I'll ask"
"Remind me why I'm doing this again?" Stefan asked
"Because you don't want to go back to Mystic Falls and deal with your brother and Elena. And my mom is working on turkey day again." Caroline said
"Good point, but why are we here?" Stefan pointed to the apartment door
"Because no one should be alone on Thanksgiving" Caroline said knocking on it
The door opened and Klaus was standing there holding a carton of milk.
"You made it" Klaus smiled as he hugged Caroline
"What the hell are you doing Klaus?!" a woman yelled
"Coming!" Klaus yelled as he ran into the kitchen
Caroline and Stefan walked into the apartment and closed the door. They walked towards the kitchen and saw three people in there. Klaus who was pouring the milk into something. Marcel who was snapping a towel at a woman who was chopping something.
"Marcel! Go check on the turkey!" Sophie yelled pointing the knife at him
"As the lady wishes," Marcel walked out of the kitchen, "Oh I'm Marcel, that's Sophie the chef, she makes a mean gumbo and is pretty mean herself"
"Get going!" Sophie yelled
Klaus threw out the milk carton and moved Stefan and Caroline outside into the living room.
"Sophie doesn't like it when people are in the kitchen" Klaus said
"Where did Marcel go?" Caroline asked
"The turkey is on the roof, they're deep frying it" Klaus said
"What?" Stefan asked
"Southern thing, they like to deep fry it. Marcel's pretty good at it, plus it doesn't take hours for the turkey to get done. Would you like a drink?"
"Sure" Caroline said
"Yeah sure" Stefan added
Marcel placed the turkey on the table and went into the kitchen to get the rest of the food. Stefan and Caroline were already seated at the table. Klaus looked over at them and had this strange sense of deja vu. He saw Stefan and Caroline as children sitting at the kiddie table. He saw himself as a child sitting there using his hands to eat. He smiled at the memory.
There was a loud crash and screaming from the kitchen. Klaus turned and ran towards the kitchen. He found Sophie and Marcel arguing.
"I'm sorry!" Marcel yelled
"Do you know how long it takes to make gumbo?! You can't just microwave it!" Sophie yelled
"We'll live without the gumbo!"
"It's gumbo! You can't not have it!"
"This isn't about the damn gumbo! This is about you!"
"You spilled my gumbo! I told you I could carry it!"
"It's about you and your sister Jane Anne, how she doesn't like me and how YOU decided to spend thanksgiving with me instead of her, and now you're regretting it! So fine! Leave! Go!" Marcel yelled as he went back to his room
"Don't walk away from me!" Sophie yelled as she went after him
Sophie ran past Klaus into Marcel's room. The continued to yell at each other. Klaus went back to the table and looked at the turkey.
"I've never actually done this before" Klaus said
"Done what?" Caroline asked
"Carve a turkey, love. I didn't watch Martha Stewart" Klaus said
"You're going to eat without them?" Caroline asked
"Oh they'll be ok, in about a few minutes, when the yelling stops and the mattress squeaking begins"
"Ew!" Caroline said
"Can I mention the million other people I could be eating with right now?" Stefan said
"Don't be like that" Caroline said
Caroline looked at Klaus who sighed.
"I'm sorry I accused you of being a pedaphile" Klaus said
"Well I'm not, and I was only talking to her. Damn that accent is weird. This is what happens when you go to another country?" Stefan said
The yelling stopped from Marcel's room. There was an eerie silence. Then there was the sound of the mattress squeaking. Klaus smirked and started to cut the turkey.
"oh my god!" Caroline covered her ears
"I'm gonna turn the tv on!" Stefan said getting up
Marcel and Sophie came out of his bedroom to find half the turkey cut up. They saw three bodies laying on the couch with the tv on.
"Whatever happened to the treehouse?" Klaus asked
"It's barely holding on. I think the duct tape is what's keeping it on the tree now" Stefan said
"That thing survived?" Klaus asked
"Yeah, I think it's going to fall on us at any given time" Stefan said
"Nice of you two to join us. We saved you some turkey" Klaus said looking at Marcel and Sophie, "hope you don't mind we started without you"
"Sorry about that, didn't mean to make it uncomfortable" Marcel said
"We're past that now, enjoy" Klaus said
Marcel and Sophie sat down and started to eat. Stefan looked over at Klaus and Caroline.
"I always knew you two would end up together somehow" Stefan said
"What?" Caroline asked
"He used to follow you around all the time. And you were so bossy. And he took it. Then puberty happened and you followed him around" Stefan said
"I remember one time at the pool, you and Damon were staring at little Caroline, apparently she wasn't so little anymore" Klaus said
"We were young and curious, and we didn't realize Caroline was a girl until then" Stefan said
"I knew you were staring at me! Pervs at a young age!" Caroline said
"I learned it from Damon" Stefan said
"Ugh!" Caroline groaned
"So how is dear old Damon?" Klaus asked
"The same" Stefan answered
"He went home to Mystic Falls with Elena" Caroline answered
"Any reason why you're avoiding them?" Klaus asked
"How did you meet Marcel?" Caroline asked quickly
"We met in New Orleans years ago. He managed to get himself into a fight over a girl. And somehow I got thrown into it, just a bystander, needless to say a few punches later, we got out alive, and the girl, well-" Klaus said
"The girl left and said she was just observing our male reactions to the situation cause she was a psych major" Marcel finished
"An old one at that, what was she getting her third masters?" Klaus asked
"She was hanging all over you"
"She wasn't my type"
"what is your type?"
"Caroline" Klaus answered
Caroline flushed pink and looked down. She could feel the heat burning her cheeks.
"Smooth there Nik" Stefan said
"I'm really thirsty!" Caroline got up and ran to the kitchen
Klaus got up and followed her. Caroline poured herself a glass of wine and gulped it down.
"Slow down love" Klaus said
"Why do you keep doing that?"
"What?"
"That!"
"What?"
Caroline walked past him and went towards the bathroom. Klaus followed her and stopped her from closing the bathroom door. He pushed his way in and closed the door behind him.
"Oh my god, personal space!"
Klaus didn't say anything. Instead he kissed her, pulling her body close. Any protest from Caroline was quickly silenced as her body relaxed against his.
"So do they always do this?" Sophie asked
"Well, as kids yeah, they used to do this all the time." Stefan said
"As kids?" Marcel asked
"You didn't know? We all grew up together. Caroline was so bossy and ordered Nik around, and he took it" Stefan said
"Wait, Klaus took orders from a girl? Really?" Marcel asked
"Yeah, they were always together. They even lived next door to each other"
"What happened?" Sophie asked
"He moved away, and we never saw him again. That is until Caroline ran into him at some gallery opening. And then he accused me of being a pedaphile with his sister" Stefan answered
"Bexx? She's a brat and then some" Marcel said
"What's the opposite of pedophile? Cause Becca likes older men" Sophie said
"Klaus…" Caroline moaned
"Shh" Klaus said as he kissed her
He placed Caroline on the sink. Her jeans were on the floor, while his were around his ankles. He was already inside her and could tell she was close.
"We shouldn't be…" Caroline trailed off
"I know" Klaus kissed her again
Marcel, Sophie and Stefan were on the couch watching TV, when Caroline and Klaus walked out.
"And what were you two up to?" Stefan asked
"I convinced Klaus to come home with me for Christmas" Caroline said
"What?" Klaus asked
"Yeah, you agreed to it just before, don't you remember?" Caroline asked
"Yes, I remember" Klaus said awkwardly
"You should come too Stefan" Caroline said
"Me and Nik can share a hotel room then" Stefan said
"Why can't you stay at your dad's house? I was going to ask if I could stay with you" Klaus asked
"Dad died a few years ago. The house is me and Damon's. I really don't want to stay there"
"Fine, you both can stay with me, the guest room is really small so you'll be extra cozy on the bed together" Caroline smirked
I know, no chibi klaorline in this chapter. But they will appear in the next chapter. I needed a reason for them to go home back to Mystic Falls for a flashback. XD
First you guys want me to age them fast, but then you decide now wait, now that you've aged them, make them kids again. no one can resist chibi klaorline can they? Also to the creepy anons, spamming me, is not going to make me update any time soon. It makes me do the opposite. Going to my other stories and spamming me there about updating this story makes me definitely not want to update at all. In fact, I did write some of this chapter before but didn't work on it anymore because I kept getting these messages and anon reviews that were just creepy. STOP IT! As stated before I will update when I can, this is not an on going fic that updates weekly. (i have no idea how anyone does that)
I can't remember who asked, but no I'm not going to re-write the previous chapter or whatever. Klaus does not come back to Mystic Falls after he leaves. They spend their teenage years apart and grow up apart. Klausy will go back for Christmas, along with some awkwardness from the boring love triangle that is damon/elena/stefan. I really don't care about that triangle at all.
Anyways leave me a review, and if you anons get creepy I will turn it off! Don't make me turn this car around! I'll do it!
