"I told you to wait for me!"
"Bonnie, I really don't need you to give me a lecture right now, and besides, I can open the front door for myself, considering all you have to do is stand 3 feet away and wait for it to slide open." I sighed.
"I know, I just didn't want you to get hurt again" Bonnie admitted
Sometimes Bonnie could be a paranoid maniac. A paranomiac. That should be a word.
I sighed, "It's great that you worry about me bon, but just don't make it a hobby". Bonnie grinned.
All of a sudden I realised I was blocking the way for people who wanted to enter the building and I awkwardly walked to the elevator ahead, nodding at the smiling woman sitting at the front desk. I still had a bit of a limp in my ankle and I knew Bonnie noticed it when she shuffled closer to me while slowing down to match my pace. We stopped outside the elevator and I was just about to press the up button when the door opened. Inside was no other than Stefan Salvatore, scrunching his eyebrows while reading a stack of paper in his hand. He looked up and smiled when he saw me.
"I was just coming down to get Bonnie, but I see she had an excellent reason for leaving her desk unattended." I smiled back at him and walked into the elevator, Bonnie trailing behind.
"Its good to see you again Stefan, I'm glad to be back".
"I see you haven't lost you positive attitude"
"I could never lose my trademark" I grinned. He smiled. Stefan was one of the few bosses she had had that she liked. Once she worked at a different law firm with a boss who continuously kept hitting on her. He was disgusting, always coming into work with new stains on his shirt (some that he had worn the day before). She quit once he tried to kiss her. But Stefan was different; she could call him a friend.
They stood in awkward silence until the door opened and Bonnie rushed out, eager to get out of the so called "awkward elevator" as it has been named by countless others. Just as she walked out, Stefan grabbed her hand, gently, pulling her back. She confusedly faced him.
"Bonnie told me about Tyler and I just wanted to say that if you need anything, please tell me". I gulped as he mentioned the name and nodded. He let go and continued walking towards his office, looking back at me once with a worried expression. I hesitantly followed behind him and ducked my head down, not wanting t cause too much of a disturbance to everyone who knew I was away. I was lucky, this time.
Once I entered the office I sat down at my desk, smoothing out my black dress and re arranging my papers, immediantly getting to work.
The day went by fast; much like any other day and it was soon time for Stefan's meeting. I knocked on his door and spoke once he looked up from the laptop.
"Your meeting is starting in five minutes, Mr Salvatore" I said.
"Thank you Caroline" he said as he stood up. He passed me and whispered into my ear, "And next time, call me Stefan". I nodded as he walked out of Bonnie and I's office. I sat back down at my desk and busied myself until I heard Bonnie clear her throat. I looked at her pointedly.
"Now that we're alone, how was it? Living with the hottie I mean" I was about to roll my eyes and make a snarky comment when a certain British voice cut me off.
"I believe it went quite well" Klaus said, by the door. Bonnie's dark features turned crimson pink, almost as pink as my cheeks.
"What are you doing here Klaus?" I asked, irritated that he heard Bonnies accurate comment. Wait! Did I just say that her comment about Klaus being hot was accurate? Nope, no way.
"I just came here to drop this off" he said, a smirk beginning to appear on his face. I was confused at first but then he pulled out something behind his back.
My jaw dropped.
In his hands he held out my pink lace bra. He must've stolen it from my clothes box when I was distracted. My previous blush grew stronger and I nearly choked on my saliva. Bonnie looked to me, then Klaus and back to me, her jaw nearly as low as mine.
"You left this in my apartment, the other day" He made it sound like we had sex. I couldn't do anything but stare at him. Bonnie cleared her throat anxiously and suddenly was very engrossed in her laptop.
"Bonnie, tell Stefan I'll be back in about an hour." I angrily said, storming out of the office, grabbing my bra and clenching it in my fist. Unfortunately he followed me to the elevator. I hoped the doors would close, shutting him out, but he was too fast. nThe minute the doors closed I started yelling.
"How dare you!"
"How dare I what?"
"You know what you did! Don't deny it!"
"I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about, love"
I held up the bra, "THIS! THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!"
"I was simply being a good Samaritan and returning you garment" he said, almost amused. How could he be amused by this!
"You made it sound like we had sex!"
"Would that be such a bad thing?"
"YES!"
He smirked.
"Ugh! You're like a pest!" I said, massaging my head.
"Yes, but I'm your pest" he stated, calmly.
I shot him a death glare. I decided not to fuel his cockiness and turned towards the doors, ready for them to open. Suddenly the elevator started shaking and stopped moving. I grabbed Klaus's arm to steady myself and awaited the end of the shaking, shutting my eyes. Once the shaking stopped I finally decided to say something.
"Did we just have an earthquake?" I squeaked
"You would think so by the way you're clinging to my arm, but no" I quickly detached myself from him and smoothed out my dress. I looked up at him questionably.
"I believe the elevator just broke down"
I nearly fainted. But instead I just stood there, knowing that this would be a very long day.
So once again, sorry for the massive wait! And also please tell me if you have any ideas for the story, because that would be great! And again, i would like to tell you that i will not be posting for another week and two days as i have camp and other commitments.
