First of I'm very sorry I never to to reply to reviews that inspired me to write this chapter, but last week was finals for me so you can already guess how crazy that was. Any way I was able to write this chapter for you and have the amazing Justanotherfiveminutes look over this chapter. So a big thanks to her for taking time and editing this. Any way her is the new chapter, let me know what you think.

I had the strangest feeling
Your world's not what it seems
So tired of misconceiving
What else this could've been
Believe- Mumford and Sons
Caroline walked into the studio, with no clue what she was going to be running into once she crossed the threshold. With a smile on her face she took the open makeup chair next to Tatia, who looked over to Caroline with a simple eye roll.
"You have done a talk show before right?" the brunette asked.
Caroline was ready to just ignore her for the rest of the time until they had to go live, but then that would just be awkward.
"Yes, Tatia. I have done interviews before. It's not my first rodeo." Caroline answered, as she went back to speaking to the makeup artist. "Well…. we'll see." We're the last words spoken between them.
Since the first time they meet they have never gotten along, and it seems that would never change between them.
"With me today I have two of the starts from the new miniseries Blood Calls premiering next week. The lovely Tatia Astrid and Caroline Forbes," Both of them walked on stage together waving at the audience smiles on their faces as they took their seats.
"Thanks for having us Jimmy," Tatia said with a triumphant smile as she took the closer seat to the host, and Caroline was perfectly okay with that.
"The pleasure is all mine ladies. I've been wanting to have you two on this show before, but it has never been possible. You two are busy ladies," the host said as the audience laughed.
"So, tell me more about the show. I saw the extend preview clip and it just blew my mind. From what I figured out, one minute you guys are in the future and next you're in the past. Correct?" He asked them looking over to Caroline.
"Yes, the show is based on current times but we have so many flashbacks. At times you don't know if you're seeing something from the past or the future. Sometimes I'm even confused!" Caroline answered with a sweet smile.
"And that's because the main character Asher, played by Klaus Mikaelson, is a Vampire. Right? "Jimmy said sounding confused. Both girls and the audience laughed at his bewildered face.
"Yes, basically it's his life story of how he became this evil, dark man." Tatia answered.
"Its kind of playing off the idea: are we born evil or is it events in our life that turn us evil? "Caroline added, as Tatia raised an eyebrow but quickly collected herself.
"And you both play his lovers." The audience let out a small laugh and snickers, since mostly everyone in the audience, and Hollywood, thought of both girls as his past conquests.
"Yes, I play Anna. The young governor's daughter that he makes fall in love with hi,. He needs Anna to complete a spell." Caroline simply said. Rose had warned her about letting any spoilers drop, like how her character ends up losing her memory and turning into a vampire instead of finding death.
"Oh,scandals" Jimmy said but before he could ask Caroline another question Tatia interrupted.
"Yes, and I play his witch. The one person who has been next to him his whole entire life." Caroline threw her a glance, Tatia was trying to make it sound like she and Klaus were the main couple on the show. Caroline just smiled as Tatia smirked over to her with a small wink.
"So how is it working with your Ex? I know both of you at one point were linked with your famous co-star" Jimmy said with a smirk .He was trying to bat them, Caroline place a smile on her face Damon and Rose had been over this and what her reaction should be.
"Well Klaus and I were rumored to be dating only, "Tatia said with a shy smile getting the audience to clap for her. For some reason Tatia's words were rubbing her up the wrong way, She knew that the brunette loved to mention that rumor to anyone who would listen. Caroline bit the inside of her check to stop her from say anything against the woman's words.
"Yes, 'rumors'," the host said with air quotes. "How about you Caroline? I think we all can say you two used to be an item."
Caroline simply smiled, "Klaus and I have a past, but we work perfectly together." She simply said, in no way was she going to mention that have the time they wanted to kill each other.
"Well working with an Ex can be hard, but Caroline here does it gracefully." Tatia spoke up as she grabbed Caroline's hand and gave it a small squeeze, Caroline just smiled.
"On top of this miniseries, you're releasing a new cd. Will any of your songs make the show?" Caroline let out a small smile, "Are you asking if my single Glass Jar will be used for any of the scenes between me and Klaus?"
"Oh, so that song, was written for Klaus?"
Caroline had walked right into that, everyone in Hollywood already thought that the song was about Klaus, but she had forgotten that she had never actually come out and said it. There was no way of backtracking, plus as Klaus would say any promotion was good promotion.
"Well if the shoe fits," Caroline smirked. To hell with it!
A week had passed since the night her and Tatia had done the interview on Jimmy Kimmel. Caroline had been nervous the whole entire week, waiting for Klaus's retaliation to what she had said on live television. But nothing had come and it was driving the blonde crazy, letting out a sigh she stood up, "I can't take this any longer."
"What?" Davina asked from her spot on the couch, they usually spent their lunch break together outside with the rest of the crew, but with Caroline's anxiety high they had decided to spend it inside today in her trailer.
"I have to go see Klaus," she said running a hand threw her hair.
"Why, did he do something?" The brunette jumped up from her seat ready to defend her new friend.
"No, and that's the problem." Caroline said as she walked out of the trailer.
Davina just flopped back down on the couch "I don't get those two," she said out loud with a chuckle.
Caroline quickly made her way over to Klaus's trailer. He tended to spend his time in there getting rest before his next scene, since he mostly was always needed on set.
"Klaus?" Caroline knocked on his door loudly.
"Bloody hell, Caroline " he groaned as he opened the door trying to adjust to the bright light.
"Umm were you asleep?" Caroline said feeling guilty now that she had woken up.
"I needed to get up and eat anyway," Klaus answered as he invited Caroline in.
"To what do I owe pleasure?" Pulling out a water bottle from his mini fridge as Caroline looked him over.
"Would you like something to drink?"
He sure did look good in dark jeans, man those jeans make his-
"Caroline, love" Klaus said catching Caroline staring at him. At being caught Caroline turned red.
"Well, I'm here for you to let me have it," At her comment Klaus spat out the water in his mouth.
"Gross Klaus! Get your mind out of the gutter," Caroline scrunched her nose
"You can't just wake up a guy and come in here saying that stuff" Klaus smirked as he leaned on the counter across from Caroline. Caroline just shook her head, "What I meant to say was that I'm going crazy waiting for you to retaliate against me," she informed him.
Klaus looked at Caroline with a raised eyebrow, offended at her comment. "Because of your little slip on Jimmy Kimmel?" Klaus shook his head as he placed his water bottle down.
" I know I was out of line…" Caroline said but not before Klaus stopped her.
"Caroline you had every right to say whatever you wanted. I'm not mad at you and in no way will I do anything against you. I should have called you and told you this but I thought that after our talk at Rebekah's you understood."
Caroline looked over at him confused. "Understood what?"
"That I'm done hurting you. All I want is for us to be friends, or to at least try to be friends."
"Klaus," Caroline said looking down at her hands. In no way was she ready to forgive him for hurting her.
"I know Caroline, We're nowhere close to that, but I at least want us to be able to be live with each other." Klaus looked at her.
Caroline stood up, "We'll see," she said simply because it was all she could tell him. Klaus nodded at her as the blonde turn to leave. "I'll gain your trust back, Caroline," he told her before she stepped out. Caroline stood rooted in her spot but just shook her head not turning around, she walked out on him shutting the door forcefully behind her.
It had ended up being a long day on set and most of that had to do with having to film scenes with Tatia, both of girls just could not seem to stand each other. For the first time Caroline truly had given up on trying to make any effort towards them becoming friends or even anything at all. Caroline's last straw was when Tatia decide to tell one of the assistants she should lose weight if she planned to work there. Camille and Tyler had to basically hold her back from Tatia.
Caroline placed her belongings down as she made her way to the kitchen. It had been three in the morning when Rose had finally let them go home. Luckily it only took her twenty minutes to get home but she was starving. Heading to the fridge to pull out some ice cream from the freezer, Caroline heard someone's footsteps.
"Hey Kat What are you still doing up?" Caroline knew Damon was not home since his car was not in the drive way."I think Damon is once again spending the night at Rose's." Pulling out the tub of ice cream ready to gossip about Damon's new Romance.
Caroline stood frozen in her spot as she spotted the man, who was in no way Katharine.
"Elijah?" Caroline asked, confused at seeing Elijah Mikaelson in her home, especially in the state he was in, dress shirt not properly closed, no tie and his shoes in his hands.
"Caroline," he acknowledged with a blush on his face, "Umm, My driver is waiting for me," he simply said as he grabbed his tie that was on top of their fruit basket and made his way out of the kitchen.
"It was nice seeing you," Caroline said after him, trying to hold in her giggles.
Shaking her head she laughed. "Oh, Katharine," the blonde said as she took a spoonful of ice cream.
