"Do we have to attend?! I don't understand what important this stupid ball holds for us." Kol whined as Caroline tried to button on his tie, and failing.

"Stop moving Kol! I swear to god your worse than Nik." She grumbled under her breath. Kol raised an eyebrow, and pouted at the motherly tone in her voice.

"Well I wouldn't be doing this if you could just tell me why we're going." He insisted, huffing as he stared at himself in the mirror.

"She's trying to hint one of the Salvatore brothers towards us." Klaus said walking into the living room. He took appreciation of Caroline's bent form and thought thoughts that were impossible to happen at this hour.

Kol looked at his brother and frowned when he saw that he wasn't ready. "Why aren't you going then?"

Caroline looked up at Kol then turned to Klaus when she saw he had a confused lint in his eyes. Seeing her boyfriend's lack of dress she angrily threw her arms into the air.

"KLAUS! We're going to be late! Why aren't you dressed?!" She screeched. The hybrid pressed his lips together, scared to say something that would get her even madder and make her cut off a body part of his. And he did want to keep his body parts.

"I didn't say I was going." He said simply, walking to the couch and wincing when he heard her squeak of frustration.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" She screamed, Kol backed away from the room, seeing the woman go into her crazy mode. He has seen her pissed off tantrums and he is happy to say that it had brought the house into a grave.

His brother was in serious trouble.

"Why aren't you going?" She asked, crossing her arms. He opened his mouth to speak but was held back when he saw that her action had brought her breasts on display. He swallowed, trying to avert his eyes.

Her dress, which hugged her beautiful body perfectly, was tight and simply Caroline. His breathing was quite difficult now, because he could imagine ripping it off her in seconds and distract her from going to that bloody ball.

"I really don't want to reacquaint with any of your friends Caroline. The only thing they do is find a way to kill us. What if tonight's a trap? I can't put you through that knowing I could stop it." He pleaded.

She sighed and closed her eyes.

"If you go with me, I promise I will find a way to stop them."

He looked down, to the floor and weighed his options.

"And if they don't stop?"

"Kill them."

His eyes widened in shock for a minute, because he had never thought that Caroline would sacrifice her friends like this. Well, it wasn't much of a sacrifice since all they did was try and kill him and his family.

Nodding, he got up and gave a kiss on the cheek. She smiled slightly, and pushed him towards the stairs.

"And wear the leather jacket!" She called after him, laughing at his whine of disapproval.

Damon clicked his tongue as he counted the minutes, he tapped on the stake in his pocket and narrowed his eyes at the limo that passed around, and a smile slipped onto his face as it parked on the curb. Reporters and interviewers ran towards it, flashing pictures instantly.

His eyes darted to the passengers and could see hints of blonde.

Caroline.

I am so going to get a thank you from Elena today, he thought as he walked towards the entrance, smiling at the attending men and women.

Taking a seat next to a bald man in a grey suite, he flashed the people on the table a charming smile. They bowed their heads in greeting and turned to see the woman who held the ball next tot he microphone.

"Welcome, ladies and gentlemen. Today we are here to honour our thank you for a certain..special man. The man in question being Nik Mikael. Our gracious supporting donator. He is here today, to speak for what he thinks is right to his achievements!" The woman looked towards the seats infront and he smirked when he saw the Mikaelson family come out.

They were dressed like royals, mainly Klaus and Caroline, and he could see Kol giving him the eyeball. Klaus walked towards the podium and flashed them all a smirk, finding satisfaction at the blushes that the women held.

Caroline scolded him from her seat and Damon furrowed his eyebrows, confused as to why she was acting so jealous. He shook it off and waited till the end so he could get a dance with blondie then flash them outta here.

But he didn't get the opportunity because Kol was around her the whole time like her personal bodyguard while Klaus talked to some of the men, and women. The mayor was about to come out and he didn't have much time.

He held the stake behind him ready to strike when Caroline went into the toilet, Kol stood outside, charming some of the women.

A snap of the neck would do the trick, he thought.

But he couldn't. Because Elijah was already stabbing him in the back and carrying him out the door towards the back of the building. He could see barbie Klaus following, as well as Kol and blondie.
