Disclamer: Not mine.

Quick note: The lyrics below is the song Damon is talking about.

We were never the marrying type, oh no,

We won't buy dishes or stained glass lights, oh no,

For a table we'll never sit at,

In the house that we won't ever get

Last love song –ZZ Ward

"Klaus?" Caroline whispered into the phone as she closed the door to her room. Placing her bag on her bed she made her way to the balcony and away from her door. You never knew when Katherine would be eavesdropping.

"Does anyone else call you sweetheart?" Klaus responded. Caroline could already imagine him smirking at the comment.

"Actually Enzo sometimes like to push my buttons with that nickname." "Yes, your boyfriend," Klaus sneered into the phone.

"Did you just call to find out if Enzo and I are dating?"

"So you're not?" he queried, a sound of hope at the end of the question.

"I didn't say that. But at the same time I never said I was. If you were only calling to fish for information about my personal life I think this conversation is over."

"Aren't you curious how I got your number?" He interjected quickly, before she could hang up.

"I know you Klaus, if Stefan didn't give it to you, you must have snooped in Rebekah's phone." Klaus laughed at that.

"You know me too well."

"I do," she simply answered. "Why did you call me Klaus?" Once again whispering into the phone, she needed to know why he called.

"I was hoping we could meet up and discuss something. I need to tell you something," Klaus said honestly. Caroline ran her hands through her hair at his words.

"Klaus," she said warningly, there was no way could she meet up with him. She was not ready for that.

"I can't Klaus, I'm not ready to just hang out with you. Especially with what happened this morning. I just can't."

"Caroline, I know that you think this morning was a mistake but it wasn't for me. I truly meant it when I said I would take just being your friend if that was all you could give me. I need to tell you everything, so you know I'm not hiding anything, that there is no agenda."

"Then just tell me, " Caroline said, in a way begging him because to be honest she could not take getting hurt by him again. If there was even the slightest possibility that they could be friends she truly needed to trust him to be honest with her.

"I'm the writer," he admitted simply, no more going around the subject. If she was not going to meet him in person he would tell her over the phone, show her that he was willing to win her trust. "I pitched the idea for the show to Rose one drunken night at a bar, and from there the rest is history."

Caroline was shocked, "so this was all part of you plan, get me to take the role so I'd be in your life again?" She sneered into the phone upset, she felt played. No wonder Rose had wanted her so badly, Klaus had been behind it. He knew how to push her buttons to make her be part of his project.

"No! This is exactly why I wanted to meet in person sweetheart. "

"Don't sweetheart me."

"Listen, Caroline, when we were speaking about casting I said that the ideal girl to play Anna would be someone who resembled you. Rose was the one who decided to track you down. I did not play you in any way; one of my other projects fell through so I was able to retake the role. Rose going to you was never part of the deal, but you had already said yes and it was too late to change anything."

Caroline wasn't sure what to say to that statement.

"I mean it, Caroline. I know this was big step for you and in no way did I want to you to think I manipulated you. I could have stayed quite till the project was over, and you saw the credits, but I truly want us to at least be friends. I know how important honesty is to you."

Klaus had said everything he needed to, the ball was now in her court and she knew it. It had been so long since they had actually talked so sincerely, without the screaming or accusations. She knew this was a huge step for Klaus. In a way he was showing her that he wanted to be trusted, but Caroline was not yet there. She still needed time but at least now she could give a thought to the idea of friendship.

"Thank you for your honesty Klaus. I'll see you on set tomorrow." She answered simply as she hung up the phone.

With a sigh, Caroline ran her hand though her hair; here she was confused all over again because of Klaus.

Caroline made her way down the stairs as she spotted Damon coming home, most likely from the office or Rose's place.

"Blondie, good thing I caught you."

Caroline raised an eyebrow, as she made her way to the bottom of the stairs.

"So the studio, decided they wanted your next hit to be 'Last Love Song'."

He took a seat on the couch. "I don't know how you feel about that, I know everyone will automatically think, once again, it's about Klaus. To be honest I don't know how I feel about that song," he said looking at his phone, not noticing the glare Caroline was sending him.

"Did you know? About Klaus?" Caroline burst out.

"Klaus, what?" Damon asked looking up from his phone. "What did the Big Bad do this time? Let me guess, he flipped on Enzo." Damon smirked imagining the scene in his head.

"No," she continued to glare at him, "that he is one of the show's writers. He pitched the whole idea to Rose," Caroline continued, voice rising as she walked over to him.

"What do you mean he pitched the idea to Rose?" Damon demanded as he stood up.

"So I take it you did not know."

Caroline knew how to read Damon, and he tended usually to avoid the subject or question when he was lying about something.

"Of course not," Damon replied, offended by her even questioning him.

"I just had to ask Damon, you know why."

She felt bad that she had questioned his loyalty. If she had learned anything through the years of living with Damon, it was that he might be an ass at times but he was loyal to a fault. That's how they had ended up writing Last Love Song together, it was Damon's way of saying goodbye to Elena, who had broken his and her loyalty by just packing her bags and leaving them.

"Rose has some major explaining to do. If I could get you out of this project right now I would," Damon fumed, frustrated. He collected his jacket as he made his way to the door.

"Damon, relax," Caroline said reaching for his arm, she didn't want him and Rose to fight they were good together even if Damon and she hadn't admitted they were dating.

"Klaus explained that he and Rose had no hidden agenda at all. He originally was never going to be part of the cast, so Rose asked me, thinking he would not be part of it." Caroline tried to explain to him, stopping him from leaving.

"I understand that, Caroline, but no matter what Rose should have told me before hand or after it was clear that Klaus would be part of the project. Not you or Klaus, " Pulling his arm away from Caroline, he made his way to the door but as he open in the person ready to ring the doorbell surprised him.

"Rebekah?" Damon said confused

"Hey, can I come in?" She asked, with no joke at the end of her question. Damon was used to her at least teasing him.

"Bekah? What's going on?" Caroline queried, wondering why the blonde was at the door, especially with luggage.

"Damon, grab her suitcase," she continued, bustling her in, not letting him make any type of comment. Caroline knew something was wrong.

Rebekah slowly made her way to the couch. "So don't freak out," Rebekah started, never a good thing to tell Caroline.

"Rebekah, what's going on?" Caroline asked, worried for her friend.

"Caroline, let her speak," Damon said as he placed the bags down.

"I thought you were leaving," Katherine said, popping out of nowhere.

"Were you listing to our conversation?" Caroline accused her, shaking her head.

"It's not my fault that noise travels to the kitchen." Smirking, Katherine plopped down onto a couch.

"What are you doing here anyway, Mikaelson?"

"Well before you so rudely interrupted I was trying to explain the situation," Rebekah said.

"My Doctor put me on semi bed rest."

"What? What happened?" Caroline said in a rush, sitting down next to her friend. "Is the baby okay? Are you okay? "

"Breathe Caroline, " Rebekah said with a smile. "The doctor, just thinks I'm over stressing at work too much, so he said I need to actually rely on my assistants, who you both know can't do anything "

"They can do some things, especially that blonde," Damon said with a wink.

"I fired her, " Rebekah said.

"If you're on bed rest then what are you doing here?" Katherine asked. "With a suit case!" Stressing the suit case point.

"Well obviously I'm moving In," she said simply.

"Wow, pump your breaks, Barbie," Damon stood up. "Shouldn't you be home with your husband?"

"Stefan has to be out of town," Rebekah simply answered looking at down at her hands for a moment. "So I thought the best thing to do was come here and be among family."

Playing the uncle card. Rebekah and Damon never have got along but ever since she became pregnant he had been nicer towards her because of the life growing inside her.

"So you might need to start looking for a new place," she told Katherine.

"She's right," Caroline spoke up. "But Katherine will be staying here too. You can take the other guest room upstairs. "

"Wait, there was another room? I should have at least been given the opportunity to choose the best one." Katherine's whined.

"You look amazing," Caroline told a blushing Davina.

"You think so? I wasn't sure about this dress but…" she shrugged and Caroline smiled at the young girl.

"Did you tell them it was too much skin?" Caroline let out a small laugh, Davina tended to always get in a little spat with the costume department. To be honest Caroline knew they just wanted the younger girl to embrace how stunning she was.

"Maybe a little," she confessed.

"You just need to remember, it's all about confidence, no matter what you're wearing." Caroline winked at the other girl. "How long are you on set today? There's some new material I want to show you." It turned out that Davina had a talent for writing.

"Sorry Care, I'm here all day."

Davina had started calling her by the nickname after a night with Katherine who kept teasing her.

"Maybe next time. We should do a girl's night again. I'll make sure Katherine doesn't bother you. Well, not too much."

"What are you talking about? You're almost as bad as her!" Davina laughed.

"Morning girls," Marcel said as he and Cami walked over.

"Are you guys working today too?" Caroline asked.

"Yeah," Cami shrugged, "they're filming most of our stuff this week."

"You know, since you and Klaus have that big screen next week." Marcel winked.

"Don't reminder me," Caroline rolled her eyes.

"What are you all taking about?" Klaus asked as he made his way towards the group. Caroline had not spoken to him since he had called her.

"Your sex scene with Caroline," Marcel teased with a smirk. "If you need any tips I'm here to help." Earning him a slap on the head from Cami.

"Leave her alone, you're not one to talk. The first time he had to do a sex scene he ended up stressing so much he threw up on set!" She revealed, causing everyone to laugh.

"It was bad sushi!"

"You don't eat fish," Klaus reminded him.

"Exactly."

"You have nothing to worry about sweetheart, if you need any tips any of us would be happy to help you. That goes for you too Davina, if you guys need any tips my door is always open. I'm pretty sure that goes for these two, also." He indicted Cami and Marcel, who nodded along.

"Anyway, since I caught you all here before Tatia showed up I just wanted to say I'm going to have a small BBQ at my place so we can all watch the first episode together. Everyone is invited, by it's just a cast thing, you know. Maybe next time we can invite others."

Caroline knew what he was getting at; he did not want her to bring Enzo.

"Are you actually BBQ-ing or are you getting catering again?" Marcel asked before he went into an exaggerated British voice, "your caterer was abysmal last time, mate"

"I can cook," Klaus rebutted.

"Sure you can," Caroline and Marcel said at the same time. They broke into laughter, as they looked at each other.

"I mean Klaus ordering takeout is an amazing skill." Marcel joked. "I'm pretty sure, Kol can cook better then you, and all he makes is a grilled cheese."

"Well I accept your challenge." Smirking at them he continued, "and when you lose, and you will Marcel, you will have to go everywhere in an outfit of my choosing. For a whole day." Turning around with a nod of the head as he walked away from the group.

"Wait, when did I accept?" Marcel yelled after him.

"You accepted by making fun of him," Caroline simply answered.

"You made fun of him too," Marcel grumbled and crossed his arms. "Who cares? Knowing Klaus this dinner is going to suck, so I say we make it a potluck"

"I'll start the list, " Caroline said with a smile. She loved making lists.
