AN: I feel like I should mention I'm back in school, I still plan to write every day, I'm just stretched between school, work, sleep and this. Sleeping is cutting into my writing time tbh. Also, any open fics will be completed. If you want a story updated faster than another, let me know!
He knocks because it's polite. He can hear wrappers crinkling in her room. She tells him that he can come in. He sees her sitting on her bed, with a box of chocolate.
"Interesting choice for breakfast." He says and she shrugs.
"I thought it'd be a little too early to start drinking." She says simply. He wonders what makes her want that, and he's about to offer champagne that would pair nicely with the expensive chocolate when they hear Elijah speak to Elena. He wants to enter her mind.
The chocolates have to be from Rebekah, she's had an amusing love of chocolate since she was undaggered.
"It's five o'clock somewhere." He offers and she offers a smile with a sniffle. There's a moment of silence, and he's about to walk out, assuming she doesn't want to him any longer.
"Klaus?" He hears her ask, her voice is soft.
"Yes, love?" She doesn't even look irritated like she used to when he said that, back in Mystic Falls.
"Have you ever had to deal with something like this? Elena might tell Elijah she's fine, but she isn't really and I can't help her like I want to. Like she deserves. And I just feel like a horrible friend because I'm sitting here eating chocolate and Elena misses food and she's missing everything and I am useless in this." She says, and he carefully walks towards her. She permits him to sit next to her on the bed. If he wasn't worried about Caroline first, he'd take it as a great sign.
He begins his endeavor to comfort her.
