A/N – Hey guys I had this idea while at work today and seeing as I work in an office I immediately just had to type it up! Not sure where I'm going with this yet as I haven't wrote up a plot however I'll wait and see what kind of response I get from all you readers out there…

Warning: It's a pretty long Chapter. At the beginning it's kind of a summery moving onto the actually story...

Disclaimer: I do not own The Vampire Diaries, nope not me *sad face*

Enjoy my lovelies!

Chapter 1

California 2051

Residing in the plush 8 bedroom, sea view mansion was Caroline Forbes, Damon & Stefan Salvatore, Elena Gilbert, Matt Honeycutt and Rebekah Mikaelson; with the occasional visit from Katherine Pierce, Stefans on – off girlfriend. Caroline would say more off than on but hey whatever made Stef happy… They were all Caroline's family, yeah a mucked up scary vampire teenage family but still they all loved each other.

Elena had chosen Damon not long after she was turned, to everyone's surprise. Caroline was rooting for Stefan but now since he and Katherine had rekindled their relationship from 1864 she guessed that it was obviously never meant to be with Elena and him. Stefan Salvatore was Caroline's best guy friend. Back when they stayed in Mystic Falls, sure they were close but since the group had all moved from state to stare, country to country, over the last 40 odd years Caroline grew close to him; he was like the brother she never had. He told her of stories from the past, made her laugh and gave her cuddles when she needed them, which were most nights.

Turns out Rebekah Mikaelson never left Mystic Falls with her brother and decided to stay put in the tiny town. She had in fact, fell in love with a certain blonde bellboy. Matt Honeycutt was the nicest guy Caroline knew. She once had a thing with him but knew that they were just meant to be friends. Matt was the only one out of the whole group who could actually have a shot at having a normal human life. And so he did. For a while. Him and Rebekah fell in love, it was as simple as that. Rebekah moved away to Boston with Matt when he got his football scholarship the following year after graduating from school. Matt managed to make it to the big time in football and had an amazing carer, Rebekah always by his side. When Matt was 24 however he took ill and was forced to give up football. Yes his carer was short lived but as Matt always said, he'd done it, he'd managed to live his dream. Matt had decided that as he was ageing, Rebekah obviously wasn't and that his football carer was over all he had left was the blonde Original. The thought that he wouldn't always be with her scared him. So he made a decision. Rebekah turned him. Frozen at the age of 24 forever.

When Rebekah and Matt landed on Caroline's front step in Italy where she, Elena and the Salvatore brothers were staying she was, to say the least, flabbergasted. Matt. A. Vampire. Shocked as she was, she couldn't help but feel relieved. All her family were now here with her, and they would be, always and forever. Because the thought of being alone for her eternal existence scared her.

So to some up it up she was loving life. Kind of. She missed someone dearly but would never admit it to anyone expect her inner thoughts.

It had almost been 40 years since Caroline Forbes had last seen Niklaus Mikaelson, well 39 to be exact, and not a day went by that she didn't feel a pang of guilt at how she has left things with him. Back in 2012 when the whole 'lets kill Klaus' plan was in action and she had discovered that Klaus was in her boyfriends body shortly to be put back his own, would be enough to stun her. However weeks after the whole incident Klaus had came to Caroline's house telling her that he was leaving town and asked if she was willing to come with him. Caroline being Caroline obviously rejected his offer harshly, slammed the door in his face and told him to leave her alone. Caroline Forbes has never heard a peep from the Original since.

"Earth to Caroline" Elena was waving a hand in front of the blondes face "You awake in there, maybe I should start calling you Barbie" Elena chuckled as thought of Damon's pet name for Caroline "Helloooooo?"

Caroline faintly heard Elena as she was reminiscing about her new life, eventually looked up at Elena properly hearing her for the first time " Sorry Elena! Day dream… What's up" Caroline asked smiling at her best friend.

"Um, Bonnie phoned me this morning and is coming over for a visit, she's bringing Grace too!" Elena announced excitedly. Grace was Bonnie's daughter and she was the most amazing little 12-year-old girl ever. Bonnie had Grace in her mid forties to her witch husband Harry, who sadly passed away not long after Grace was born. Bonnie still stays in Mystic Falls where she teaches The Occult at the local College just like her grams.

"OH MY GOD" Caroline screamed "Wow this is so exciting Elena it's been way too long since I seen my gorgeous niece! When did they say they'd be arriving?" Grace was Caroline's favourite person in the world. She was an amazing little girl with amazing witch abilities. Bonnie had started teaching Grace at a young age and by god was she a fast learner.

"I think she said about mid day" Elena stated as she looked up at the clock that was hanging on Carline's bedroom wall. "So in about an hour! Oh and I've made up the bed's in the spare rooms so everything is ready" smiled Elena as she turned to leave.

"Aaaah I'm so excited," Caroline yelled as she threw herself back onto her bed.

"Auntie Care" Grace squealed as she ran to her favourite aunt "I've missed you so much!"

Caroline grabbed Grace and spun her around holding her in a tight hug "Hey munchkin I've missed you millions too!" Caroline peered over Grace's shoulder and seen her child hood best friend cuddling Elena " And of course I've missed you too Bon" Caroline smiled at the Bennett witch. It really had been too long since she had seen her friend.

"Hi Care" Bonnie said smiling back at Caroline, who had let go of Grace to go over and give her best friend a hug too.

"I'm so glad to see the two of you, you've honestly made my day" Caroline said as she let go of Bonnie and helped take the suitcases into the beach house. "So unexpected, but hey I'm not complaining" she laughed.

"Yeah I know we usually give you guys more notice but something came up Care and I think you should sit down" Bonnie grimaced as she saw how Caroline's face fell.

"Um okay Bon sure what's up?"

Okay so what did you guys think? I know, I know, not any Klaroline. But hey maybe that's what Bonnie's news is? Who knows! Please remember this is a Caroline/Klaus fic so the question is when will the badass hybrid make an appearance? Better stay tuned ;)

Oh and please do review! It makes my day.
