I was kind of stumped on this one, sorry it's so short! Will update soon! Please let me know what you think, I'd really appreciate it :)

My entire body buzzes. The heat from the wine and Klaus's hands trailing my body effortlessly, I stretch out on the ground, running my hands through my messed hair, as Klaus pull my towards him; skin on skin.

Bliss.

"You're like a teenager!" I laugh, rolling towards him, planting kisses on his shoulder and chest. I bight my lip as our eyes meet in the newly exposed sunlight as it peeks over the horizon, lighting the skies of Portugal with orange and pink. "Hasn't it worn off over the years?" I draw lines along his forearm aimlessly, "Sex. Is it really still that interesting?"

"Mmmm..." He props his head up on his elbow, his eyes drifting slowly to mine.

And then with a very deliberate movement, he glides a finger against my thigh, over my hip, skimming my rib cage before sliding his hand around my neck and pulling my lips to his desperately. Leaning into me, he presses me into the floor, drowning me with pleasure.

His finger tips stroke the back of my neck; his sensitivity's recognizing the goose bumps there. His breath against the thin sheen of sweat across my skin from tonight's activities sends chills through me.

It's when his hand comes to rest against my rapidly beating heart that I realise I've forgotten to breathe.

"I had become bored of things like intimacy, affairs..." Holding himself over me now, hardly letting his weight against me, his teeth graze my shoulder, and a quiet moan escapes my lips, "This is different..."

"Whatever," I roll my eyes, cut off when his lips crush down on mine once again.

He pulls away a few inches, raising an eyebrow at me.

"That's what every guy says when he gets a new girlfriend. Things like This is different and I've never loved anyone the way I love you," My male impression seems to amuse him for a second. "But then after the novelty wears off, it's like they can't remember what it was like in the beginning..."

Klaus pauses, staring down at me in the dim light, his eyes searching mine for the emotions there, I watch his face as he registers my sadness.

"And when they get bored... They find someone else..." I finish.

And in this second, even though I hate it with all of my being, someone comes to my mind. Causing unwelcomed tears to prick my eyes.

Tyler.

"Is that what you believe?" His voice is so quiet I hardly make out his words.

"It's what I know..." I whisper, knowing that speaking any louder would open the flood gates to the tears that will inevitably come.

Klaus is away from me, pulling me up in a seated position, sitting across from me on the studio floor, he waits. Without speaking, or moving, or even breathing, he watches me.

"I'm sorry," I quickly swipe the single tear that falls onto my cheek. "It's stupid. Just... thinking about him. And them..." I shake my head, trying to shake away the cold feeling in the pit of my stomach. "You know he was screwing her in the Appalachians?! And he lied to my face about it."

Klaus's point of view

I feel ill.

Her tears are falling fast now, even with her obvious attempts to hold them at bay.

"I mean he didn't even have the decency to own up to it when I confronted him. And I just..." She shakes her head again, her sadness seeming to melt into anger and frustration. With herself or Tyler I can't be certain. "Trusted him."

Feeling as if a large hole has been punched through my chest, I watch as she hastily wipes away the lingering tears.

Seeing what that mutt has done to this fragile creature in front of me, innocent and so easily crushed, my own anger flares dangerously.

Thinking of Haley, with Tyler.

Haley, with me.

"What?" Caroline's voice brings me back to the present.

Her fingers find mine, her eyes search mine for the thoughts that rest there. The one's I've tried my hardest to hide. Bury deep, holding up a cold front to everyone in life. The warmth of her has begun to melt away everything I've worked for over hundreds of years... Isolation.

If I'm alone, life is simple.

I run a frustrated hand through my hair, hating myself for ever letting that poisonous woman into my life. Even just for a night.

"What's wrong?" Her frown deepens.

"You know she would never forgive you." Katherine's words replay in my mind once again. Haunting me with their weight in reality. Despising her for her knowledge in the situation.

"Nothing." I lie.

Caroline's point of view

Klaus left to catch a cab to the airport. I dress quickly in the light of the late morning. I hear the muted sounds of the cleaning crew in the basement of the studio as I reach for my bag and jacket.

My phone blinks at me, catching my eye.

One new message

I listen closely to the people downstairs; they're not making their way up here anytime soon.

I press send, and wait for the message to play.

"Hey, Caroline, it's Elena... Listen, we have a problem..." I freeze in place, hearing the sound of distress in my friends voice, "So Tyler's here... He found out about you, where you are and... He's not happy."

"No shit." I mumble to myself, rubbing my forehead anxiously, checking quickly around the room to see if Klaus has reappeared. I'm alone.

"And... Haley's here."

A sort of cold creeps up my spine at the sound of her name. I hear background noises, other voices from the receiver, but am unable to make anything out.

"Listen, I think maybe you should come home."

It's then that I hear Klaus reappear at the window, looking at me with confusion.

The message ends, and I stand there, processing the last couple of minutes.

One second, we're booking a flight to Italy, and the next...

"I have to go home."

Okay, I need your guys' help! There are two ways this story could go... I think I know which way I want to take, but I'd like to know what you guys have to say about it!

Baby... Or no baby? Should Haley be pregnant, or not...? Cast your vote in the reviews and help me decide how you want this to play out! Majority rules... Or if I decide you're all nuts and I just do it may way :P -Cheers
