A/N: Chapter 6 follows. Comments are welcome.

Relationships will develop in this chapter featuring a lot of Klaroline and Kennett. I'm switching to a lot of POVs for some of this chapter.

The characters are not mine they are from TVD/TO I just made some character and personality adjustments to some of the characters.

Read on….

"We have to stop. We have to stop." Caroline then quickly pushed herself out of Klaus' embraced and stared at him. "Oh God! I remember, I remember! I was hit by a car, my name is Caroline" and fainted.

Klaus whose eyes had first searched her face when she started her panicked speech about remembering just recovered in time to once again grab Caroline before her face hit the window on her side. Telling to driver to head for home, he noticed a familiar SUV parked was they were driving away. Kol's SUV, he reminded himself to call his brother later. But all thoughts of everything else left Klaus as all he was thinking about was Caroline's statement. She remembered. He felt a little happy for her it was hard not knowing who you were but then had a moment of panic when he realized that if she remembered, then she would have every reason to move on with her life and forget about him. No, he wouldn't allow that to happen. He would find a way to convince her to keep him in her life. She got along with his mother well enough. It didn't seem like she was married, she had no ring on her finger when he first saw her. All he could do was to stare at her face and hope.

Damon's POV

It just wasn't his week. First the Marcel partnership was literally dead in the water. Now Elena's accident, he was about to finally take a nap as he had promised Elena who had gone for a shopping trip to relax and forget about the past days negativity. He had been planning a special night with Elena who he had not appreciated lately. If not for her this past few days would have been unbearable, probably pushed him over the edge. The dinner with Elena's father last night was another tension filled affair, after all he had lost potentially millions with the Marcel deal. A deal, were Elena's Dad had put his career and name on the line bending a lot of rules to get the deal going. Knowing the Mikaelsons Elena's Dad was now a marked man.

When his assistant had called him about Elena's accident, Damon had feared the worst. Maybe it was a hit put out on Elena as a way to get to him, another message. But it looks like it was just an honest to goodness accident. Elena had stepped on to the curb rushing into the street on her own. Now he was rushing to the hospital hoping for the best but expecting the worst. The same assistant had told him that she was rushed for emergency surgery.

Now he was pacing the floor of the Hospital lobby distraught and waiting for any news. He could think about anything else but Elena at the moment.

End of Damon POV

Klaus had carried Caroline back to her room bridal style and had stayed with her, grabbing the seat beside her bed and just staring at her. His Mom had rushed into the room a few minutes ago and Klaus had informed her of the events that had transpired. It was bittersweet for Esther that Caroline had regained her memories. She was hoping that Klaus could convince Caroline to stay. Klaus had requested that his mother prepare something for Caroline to ear when she eventually woke up with that Esther left to do as Klaus had requested.

Klaus POV

She really was so beautiful sleeping. He had the urge to take care of her, shield her from all the worries of the world. He leaned in to touch a loose tendril just curling her locks around his finger. He knew he was falling in love with her if he wasn't already. It was unexpected and definitely unprecedented, it had never happened before. Again unfamiliar feelings were overwhelming.

He was not a man who dreamed and hoped. He really was an action man, he just did. But in this moment while just being beside Caroline, he just dreamed, dared to hope a future with Caroline existing. He new it was dangerous and could even become deadly not only for Caroline but for him as well. But at the moment, he vowed to himself that if indeed fate had designed a future for Caroline and him, he would protect her, even with his life if need be.

End of Klaus POV

Klaus stood up to open the door to Caroline's bedroom as someone knocked.

"Kol, what happened?" Klaus asked glancing for second back at Caroline before stepping out of the room to talk to Kol.

"Alaric was a step to late, the Gilbert girl was able to run unfortunately the car was faster than her. In the end, we accomplished the same objective." Kol shrugged.

Klaus frowned "Usually, I would tolerate incompetence but maybe, just this time, the accident was a good thing. I couldn't be traced to us. Any news on the Gilbert girl?"

Kol shook his head "Not at the moment, she is still in surgery. But according to our man, Damon is presently in the hospital."

Klaus tapped Kol in the back. "Update me, if you have more news. She" pointing to the girl inside the bedroom "witnessed the accident, she regained her memories. Her name is Caroline, that's all I got from her before she fainted. I might need arrangements prepared in the foreseeable future if and when Caroline decides to regain her old life."

Kol just looked at his brother blankly "You're just letting her? Leave I mean?"

Klaus said quietly "I just might have to brother."

"I will put a team together, when we have more information on Caroline I can have her place and her friends scouted. In the meantime, you need to rest brother."

Klaus said nothing, just opened the door to Caroline's room and went back in. He went back to his seat beside the bed.

Caroline's POV

Caroline stirred slightly, stretched and slowly opened her eyes. Her blue eyes met green ones. She couldn't help the smile that automatically formed in her lips. Once again, her savior was looking out for her. Dropping everything to be with her. Breaking eye contact, she let her eyes slide down to Klaus' body. She really hadn't notice before but he really had a trim and fit body. She imagined what he looked like beneath his clothes. Oops, so not going there.

End of Caroline POV

"Don't you get tired, always looking out for me? You must have other more important things to do" Caroline said timidly.

"Caroline…and its nice to finally know your real name. I couldn't think of anything more important than your wellbeing at this time. You will rest tonight I will have something light brought up for you in a few minutes. I know you would like to contact your family maybe a few friends but I implore you not to rush into all of that. I don't intend to kick you out. In fact I would suggest you take a few more days to recover before re-starting your life. You are more than welcome to ask a few friends, your mother or any family over in the meantime." Klaus leaned over at Caroline will he had been speaking.

Caroline gave Klaus a small smile "Its just me and my mother for a longtime, I haven't really kept in touch with her on a regular basis so a week and a half lost would really have gone unnoticed by her. I however have two friends, my business partners, Kat and Bonnie who I would like to get in touch with. They would be the ones who would really be worried about me. We've been bestfriends since forever."

"I will have a new phone for you by the morning in the meantime feel free to use my phone." Klaus handed Caroline his phone.

Caroline reached for the phone in Klaus' hand, quickly grabbing the phone and looking into the eyes of Klaus once again. She felt that spark again when their hands had touch and judging from his expression he had felt it too. "Thank you. Lucky I practically memorized my friends numbers, years of calling each other up I guess."

"I will leave you to your conversations. I know you prefer to be alone." Klaus slowly stood up.

"Um Klaus, its okay to stay, I might need you for some information." Caroline said quietly.

Klaus once again sat down, holding out his hand in a gesture for Caroline to start dialing to call her friends. After a brief look back at Klaus, Caroline started to dial Kat's number.

Kat stared at her phone for a moment, hesitating to answer before she decided to finally answer. "Hello" she tentatively answered.

"Kat? Its Caroline." And that was all she got out as Katerina went into a series of sentences that eventually Caroline couldn't follow. "Kat, hold on. I'm ok, I had an accident a week ago, tried an experiment between me and the car, you know to find out which of us was stronger. It turned out the car was. I was in a hospital but now I am at a house, well more like a Mansion being cared for by a family. I had amnesia for a while but I regain my memories a few hours ago. This is the first chance I could call you guys. I'm sorry for worrying you guys. Is Bonnie with you? How the café doing?"

"Caroline!" this was definitely Bonnie now who probably grabbed the phone from Kat, "where the hell are you? Are you at your place now?"

Caroline laughed a bit "I just told Kat I was elsewhere, I lost my memories couldn't remember where I lived and I was taken in by a nice family. I am right now at there house. Maybe one of you can drop by tomorrow? I know the other has to remain in the café."

Bonnie after a moment responded "that would probably be me. Kat has set up a meeting with a local magazine who wanted to feature our Café. Tell me where to get you."

Caroline looked at Klaus. "Ummm, actually Bonnie, you can visit me but I don't think I can move back to the apartment right now. I'm not yet recovered enough and you guys can't afford to babysit me, the café has to be tended. I can give you the address…" Klaus leaned in closer to Caroline as whispered near her ear "maybe I can have a car sent to pick-up your friend it would be easier that way, just arrange where your friend could be picked up." Caroline glance at Klaus momentarily caught once again in the sea of his green eyes. "Bonnie maybe it would be better if I can have someone pick you up at the café. The family I am staying with offered to have a car get you, around 11 in the morning fine with you. Do you think Kat can manage the lunch crowd?"

Bonnie hesitated for a moment then said "I think she can manage a day, it would be a good time to test our juniors anyway. I'll be ready by 11 just have however will pick me up look for me at the café. See you tomorrow."

Caroline handed the phone back to Klaus. "I never thanked you for all you have done for me. Taking me in and all. You don't even know me. Are you sure I'm not an inconvenience to you?"

Klaus exhaled loudly "Caroline, if you thank me one more time for my hospitality I will be mad. I told you that you are not in any way at all an inconvenience and it would give me immense pleasure for you to think of this as your home. Mother has also been very happy to have you here. Speaking of, I will have mother come up in a moment. It is time for your dinner then rest. If you will need anything, my bedroom if the door to your left everyone else is located at the right wing." Klaus stood up and slowly walked out of the room.

Long after Klaus had left Caroline continued to stare at the door. She was falling for Klaus, no doubt in her mind. He was the most decent guy she had met. Maybe just maybe he felt the same? She did catch him and his lingering looks several times. But she was afraid to read more into his actions. He might just be the kind of guy who was respectful and kind to the opposite sex, a perfect gentleman. A rare breed for her generation. He was definitely unattached, she had asked his mother. Off course, try as she could to be discrete about it, his mother had caught on to the questions and even volunteered information about her son. Telling her that her son was the one who insisted on her staying and had always asked his mother for updates regarding her. Maybe she just needed courage to make the first move after all now was a good time as any, she was after all an independent, successful businesswoman who was master of her own destiny.

The doors of the emergency room finally opened and Damon quickly stood up and rushed to the Doctor. As he approached he noticed the expression of the Doctor and stopped mid-step. Regaining some of his focus, he slowly took the last few steps toward the Doctor. Elena's father followed Damon toward the doctor.

"Are you here for Gilbert, Elena?" the doctor asked Damon.

"Yes, this is her father and I'm her fiancée, Damon" well sort of Damon said in his mind, he had intended to ask Elena to finally marry him in the near future.

"Well" the Doctor looked both at Elena's father and Damon "we tried to stop the internal bleeding and we were successful however the brain also had a hemorrhage and there was extreme trauma, she is in a coma, all we can do now is wait. She is being transferred to ICU right now, she can only have one visitor at a time"

Caroline had been tossing around in the bed for hours it was now almost 1 in the morning as the side table clock indicated. She decided to get out of bed and proceed to the kitchen, it always helped if she could sleep to heat some milk and drink a glass. But while she knew where the kitchen was she didn't really know where they kept the supplies. She slowly stepped out of her room and noticed a light under the room to her left. She remembered that Klaus had mentioned it as his room. She headed for the door to her left then hesitated taking the last step. Taking a long breath, she lifted her hand to knock at the door. After a few knocks, she heard footsteps then the door was opened.

Klaus expression turned from irritation to surprise then smiled "Caroline, to what do I owe this pleasure?"

Caroline bit her lip and replied "I was having difficulty sleeping and thought of going to the kitchen for a glass of milk, I saw you had your light on"

Klaus lifted his eyebrow "A glass of milk."

"Hey, I enjoy of glass of milk before bedtime, one of the things that I never outgrew as a child." Caroline defended.

Klaus smiled at Caroline "alright then, one glass of milk coming up. I don't think it is wise for you to go down at this hour, maybe you can wait inside my room" opening the door wider "as you can see I have a sitting room, you can make yourself comfortable stepping aside to let Caroline enter "I will just be a moment" Klaus proceeded to step out of his room turning around once again to face Caroline, "would you like anything else to go with the glass of milk, a cookie perhaps?"

Caroline smiled once again "surprise me" oh god, was she flirting with Klaus, at this hour! She walked further into his sitting room looking at some paintings some finished and some not. She just discovered something else about him, he was a painter. Undoubtedly a man with many hidden talents, she was getting glimpses of Klaus and who he was and she really was falling for him. She was lost in her thoughts and hadn't noticed that Klaus had arrived back and was now looking at her. Noticing her finally acknowledging his presence he motioned toward the tray of her glass of milk and what looked like a plate of choco chip cookies.

While Caroline walked toward snack, Klaus walked toward his bar and poured himself a glass of scotch. He sat down in the couch motioning for Caroline to sit beside him.

"Thank you again. I can't seem to stop saying thank you. It probably because you keep doing nice things for me, I really didn't mean to intrude." Caroline spoke before drinking her milk.

"Caroline, I told you before, anything you will need. Do not hesitate to ask me, no matter the time." Klaus responded.

They had been conversing about everything and nothing for about an hour when Caroline felt herself drifting once again into sleep. She couldn't remember why she was actually leaning into Klaus' shoulder and he had his arm arounf her. Unconsciously Caroline whispered to Klaus "I don't think I can make it back to my bed, can I stay the night with you?"

Caught unprepared, Klaus took a few seconds to digest what she had said then slowly lifted Caroline bridal style toward his bedroom before setting her down on his bed. She closed her eyes and he couldn't help but stare once again at her. She looked like she belonged in his bed. He slowly stepped away from his bed intending to sleep in his sitting room for the night but once again Caroline's voice stopped him, it was almost a whisper.

"Stay with me, please." How could Klaus refuse her, he lifted the covers and turned of the lamps beside him. Just as he turned on his back he felt her arms hug him all he could do was hug her back and bring her closer to him. Once again thinking that Caroline in his arms was so right.

Caroline woke up in she new she was definitely not in the bedroom she had got used to the last few days. Slowly memories of what transpired last night came back to her prompting her to look at the man beside her who still had her body wrapped around him. Looking up at the face of the man beside her, she found a small smile forming and then suddenly the arms around her tighten then she heard a whisper "Good Morning Caroline".

Caroline looked up and again met the green eyes of Klaus. "Good Morning Klaus. I'm sorry for last night."

Klaus sighed "Caroline I told you to stop saying Thank you and I'm sorry. Everything I do for you is my pleasure." Klaus then proceeded to lean down and kiss Carolines forehead.

Caroline giggled "Am I twelve? My granddad use to kiss me in the forehead"

Klaus encouraged reversed their positioned and had her pinned down with him on top "really would you like to be kissed here?" and kissed her in her left cheek "or here" then kissed her on her right cheek "or maybe here "and kissed her lightly in the lips. After a moment, Klaus pulled back then looked into Carolines eyes like he was checking if what he was doing was fine with her. After a moment Caroline leaned forward and captured Klaus lips. What started as innocent light kisses quickly turned into passionate making out then into even more passionate lovemaking. After two rounds, Klaus and Caroline went back to sleep exhausted.

Caroline woke up a few hours later to an empty bed a little disappointed. As she got up she noticed a note containing her name and a box of what looked like a phone on top of the side table.

"Caroline,

I have instructed Kol to pick-up your friend from your café by 11. I have also made arrangement for lunch to be prepared for your guest so you are welcome to lounged around in the garden or by the pool, your choice.

Your new phone has also arrived I hope it is to your liking.

I have enjoyed this morning and hope that I will have the pleasure of you again soon. As you might have guessed, you are important to me. I am but a man who has fallen for all of you.

Klaus
