Klaus p.o.v,
I had one of those feelings, you know the ones that come from nowhere and you can't understand why you have them, But I quickly brushed it away and continued into work,
I got in and was quick to try and ignore the thoughts of the other night and focused solely on what was at hand, It was no use my mind kept drifting back to a certain blonde female, The way she looked was breath taking, the way she walked around the room drawing attention to her like a moth to a flame, she was a constant surprise to me.
I hadn't gotten the chance to talk to her all night, I was going to when I saw her near the bar but before I had the chance she was being ushered forward, and then she was on the stage, her voice was like nothing I had heard before, soft and smoky, strong but angelic, I saw her wink at her friend the one who had punched me and I also watched as she danced with Elijah, all night, before I had chance to speak to her when she got off the stage, she was already leading her friend out, so to say I was looking forward to when she would be getting her was an understatement,
I spoke a command and watched as the class was quick to follow my orders, I walked around correcting some that had gotten it wrong when I caught sight of her, I smiled but she wasn't even looking at me, "keep going" I spoke, quickly walking over to her, "Caroline" I spoke, quickly detecting some thing was wrong "you okay sweetheart",
She looked at me then causing my stomach to twist, she looked in pain, "I'm fine, I'm just gonna work on this today" she says her voice tired, Making me want to take her into my arms and demand her to tell me what's wrong, but I nod and walk away.
I keep throwing looks at her, but she's just focusing on the punching bag , her fist connecting with it strategically,
the class is dispersing when a voice pulls my attention away from James who has stayed behind to talk to me,
"Is she crying" my head snaps to Caroline's Direction noticing right away the tear that is rolling down her cheeks, "everyone out" I call as I make my way over to her.
"Caroline love" I speak to her but her attention is completely focused on the bag, "Caroline sweetheart" I say touching her shoulder lightly, but her fist are still connecting with the punching bag,
"What's going on Klaus" Marcel asks drawing my attention away and to him as he's coming in to the room to look at her " I don't know I say" pulling out my phone ringing Kol.
"hello" "Kol I need bonnie's number now" I snap "why what's wrong Nik" "its something to do with Caroline" I hear shuffling around and suddenly Bonnie's voice is on the line "what's going on" I quickly tell her to get here "we're on our way" "hurry" I snap, shutting the phone before trying to snap Caroline out of it.
Katherine p.o.v,
Me and bonnie are quickly rushing through the gym Kol hot on our heels, As soon as I see them I notice her Right away, crying and completely focused on what she's doing "What happened" I snap as I rush over to Klaus and some black dude that I don't know, both of them with worried expressions on their handsome faces, "we don't know" Marcel says "she wasn't fine, but I thought okay next thing I know she's punching that thing crying and just not stopping, If you don't get her to stop I will" Klaus snaps, I turn and practically thrust Nadia in Kols arms, who is clutching a worried Bonnie's hand,
Her forehead is drenched in sweat, So much that if it wasn't for the sound of little sobs escaping her throat you would think it was just sweat that's on her cheeks,
"Caroline" I say, Nothing happens , I hear bonnie walking towards us "Caroline" I say gripping her shoulders, She stops punching and suddenly, Like her knees can no longer hold her, Drops to the ground, "care" I breath out falling to my knees shaking her shoulders lightly.
The most heartbreaking sob escapes her, The sound ringing in everyone's ears, I throw my arms around her, Feeling bonnie's arms encircle us both, I sit rocking her listening to Bonnie whispering soothing words to her, Tears falling freely down my face, as I listening to the sound of my best friend shattering in my arms.
As her heart wrenching sobs turn to little whimpers I pull back slowly to look at her face, "Care, what's happened" I ask slowly, I watch as her eyes slowly come to focus on my face and voice, Like she's only just realising that I'm here, "Kat"Caroline says her voice filled with anguish,
"Yeah, It's me, what happened" I ask lightly, "Everything"she say's just as another sobs wrack's her body, I look at Bonnie and we both nod, "Come on care lets get you home" I say looking at the three guys just standing there watching quietly, "Stay with Bon" I say giving her shoulder a slight squeeze.
"What's wrong" Klaus says straight away, I quickly wipe my eyes before taking Nadia from Kol, "Nothing to concern yourself with, Can you give us a ride home" I ask "yeah sure" Kol says
"I'm coming" Klaus says, And I round on him "no you are not!, Listen to me and Listen good, When Caroline starts feeling better, Which she will, She will be mortified that all of you saw what you just saw, So no you will not be coming, As soon as Kol drops us off then he will be going too , this is a family matter" I say giving him evil eye before walking back over to Caroline.
"Care, come on" I say holding my hand out. She, stands up with the help of Bonnie and intwines our fingers, as Bonnie holds her hand and wraps her arm around her shoulders, I pause at Klaus "Thank you" I say, He looks taken back "For calling us" I say he nods, And I can feel his eyes on us as we walk away.
Bonnie p.o.v,
"Cheers for this Grams, I know it was last minute but" "nonsense bonnie, You know I love spending time with my great granddaughter, now go and be there for our Caroline, Nadia is fine with me" Grams says to me over the phone, And I can't help but love my Grams more for treating Katherine and Caroline like their her family to, And for treating Nadia the same.
"Okay well remember to give her the mummies kisses" I say referring to the night time routine she has, Where she get's a kiss from all of us, Which means who ever puts her to bed has to give her 3 kisses.
"I will now go, be with your friend" she says and I hang up.
I walk into the living room where Kat and Caroline are sat on the couch I pick up the bottle of Tequila before sitting the other side of Caroline, "Grams said she's fine" I say as a greeting,
They both turn to look at me and my heart squeezes at the sight of Caroline's tear streaked face, as I can remember her falling to the floor in grief just a few hours ago,
"how you feeling" I ask passing her the bottle, "A little better, now thanks" she says taking a mouthful of drink before passing it to Kat, "So what happened" Kat asks and I hate that we have to ask her,
I watch as she takes a deep shuddering breathe "You know the picture we found earlier" she says, I nod remembering finding an old picture of her and Tyler when we were packing up some of my things for the move,
"That" she says, I share a look with Kat and squeeze her hand comfortingly.
We sit still for a while squashed up together each giving and sending comfort to each other as we take turns drinking from the bottle.
"It was like everything that I forced myself to forget started coming back and I couldn't stop it from happening" Caroline says after a while, Her voice cutting through the silence.
"what do you mean" I say a little confused, "Everything, from the first time we met to the first time he hit me, my mom-" Her voices catches at that and Katherine is quick to pass her the bottle, As we wait for her to continue patiently.
"I kept punching hoping that they would stop, That the memories would just go away, But the just kept coming and coming, He ruined my life , He took away so much from me, He stole so much more from me, He murdered our child," I sharply draw a breath at her confession , My heart aching for her and my anger towards Tyler growing more and more.
"I would look at myself sometimes and I didn't know If it was really me that I was seeing, I thought that some one had come in and magically taken me and put me into some one else's body, Some one else's life, But then I'd remember that magic isn't real, There was no witches that had transported me into some one else" she says her voice dripping with hate.
To break the silence that fell after Caroline finished speaking I spoke the first thing that came to my mind "Kol calls me his little witch".
They both look at me "what he does" I say and they both break into a laughter, Filled with so much joy that I can't help but laugh with them.
"Why does he call you that" Katherine asks as our laughter dies down, "He says its because from the moment he met me he's been bewitched by my beauty, I thinks its ridiculous" I say laughing with them,
"Its cute, Bon," Caroline says smiling brightly at me, "It is a bit" I say , "I think you've bewitched him with you magical vagina powers" Katherine says causing Caroline to bellow with laughter "bon bon has a magically pussy" she shouts and we both follow her into laughter.
So that's the second part of chapter 17, The joke at the end just for those who don't get it witches have cats as pets and cat's gets called pussy, which is also another name for lady business so that's how the joke works.
And as always let me know what you think. Love Grace :)
