(AN: IM ALIVE!, haha sorry I had to. I know I haven't posted in a while, really sorry about that. School stared again and I have so much homework, I also got a new job, and the best part. I got asked out by my crush once again im really sorry about the late update. Here's chapter 4 hope you like it.)

Caroline's POV

This is not happening, oh my god it is. Their making me have an arranged marriage, the one thing they promised me I wouldn't have to do. They can't make me do this- can they?

"No you can't force me, mama im sorry but Tyler is not the guy for me, can you not tell how he wants to sleep with every girl he sees, or how he is too stuck up. Please don't make me do this."

"Caroline bite your tongue. You will choose Tyler if you know what's good fo-"

"What if I choose someone else? Someone who is great, and will be a good successor to the throne. If I find someone suitable for me as well as this Kingdome, will you back off about Tyler?"

With that mama stopped and thought for once. I looked at Father the same time he looked at me, he had that look saying 'way to go sweetheart'. To be honest I was pretty proud of myself. I stood up for myself for once.

You could practically see/ hear the gears working in her head. "That seems reasonable. But if this man does not live up to our expectations, you will marry Tyler no questions asked. Who do you plan to choose now Caroline?"

Shoot. I completely forgot to even think about who I would choose if she agreed. Who would be a good choice. Every guy I met today flashes through my mind. There was Luca- no, Kol- I think he has a thing for Bonnie, Elijah- Katherine, Stefan- more like a friend. But then Damon pops into my head. Yeah im still sad about Klaus but I don't know maybe Damon will be a good choice. Anybody is better then Tyler.

"Damon Salvatore." Is all I say for a response.

Damon's POV

When we returned home, mom and dad bid us goodnight. I turned to Stefan my brother to ask what we should do.

"don't even think about it Damon, im to tried to do anything his evening."

"okay then, can I ask you one thing though.?" There actually was something else on my mind. The princess, she was beautiful and I don't mean nice looking kind of girls. I mean the stop in your tracks, jaw to the floor, and make a guy act like idiot kind of girl.

"sure, what is it.?"

"what do you think of the princess?, like beauty wise."

"yeah she's pretty, why?"

Why? Is a good question. I felt really bad when I saw her leaving the ballroom crying. I honestly have no idea why I felt like I needed to go after her to see what was wrong.

"no reason I was just wondering."

(AN: I know it's a small chapter, truth is I cant sleep and thought I should just write a quick one. Im going to try and post as soon as I can. Once again I love you guys and please keep posting reviews. Those and you guys keep me going!)
