Bonnie nested her head against his chest, her fingers kept making these little patterns up and down his back. There were no words she knew that were able to describe how she felt lying on her side, his arms around her keeping her trapped in this bubble of safety and love.
Two naked bodies close as one.

"I need to leave your bed…" she finally broke the soothing silence.
"I strongly disapprove." he simply said and ran his finger over her shoulder.

It made her smile and she left the warmth of his chest so she could face him. "I need to send your father back and deal with Elena's death."
Kol outlined her face, he hated the way her smile faded and he was taken back to the nights she had spent crying over the loss of her friend. "Full moon is only tonight and we still have a few hours left darling."

She searched his neck with her hand and pulled him closer so she could kiss him. She had no words for what she felt when they kissed either. Or the way that she felt when they moved and she was under him, pressing his body to hers for that matter.
Surely love and lust walked hand in hand when it came to Kol but she wasn't complaining, the way Kol made love to her every time was a reminder of how much she had missed before their fates became so entangled together.

Simply put she was in love with him and for the first time in her life she was happy and loved back with the same intensity.
That he made her moan his name in pleasure was just a bonus.

"Kol…" she groaned lost in bliss with his chance of pace.
It was a really big fat cherry on top of a perfect cake.

"Are you sure about this?" Liz asked wrinkling her nose.
"Mom… are you going to cry?" Caroline asked surprised.

Liz shook her head but her denial burst into flames when a stubborn tear left her beautiful eyes. "I just want you to be happy…"
"I just need a break from Mystic Falls… a lot happened this year and I feel like I'm suffocating trapped in this place, specially now with Elena's death."

Liz nodded and unexpectedly took Caroline into her arms. "I expect you to do what you haven't done before, call me every two days so I will know that you are ok."
Caroline smiled and fought her own tears. "I will call every day mom and I will be back soon, I promise. I'll come for Christmas and your birthday…"

Liz broke the hug and stroked her golden hair. "Just make sure you don't get hurt and that he treats you well."
Caroline could feel the slight scolding in her mother towards Klaus. "He will never let anything happen to me mom."

That was enough to reassure Liz. "That will have to do I guess…"
Caroline smiled and hugged her mother tight again; she knew it would take at least a few months since they would see each other again.

Elijah smiled at Caroline that made her way to the Art room.
"Hey Elijah." she said as easily as someone living in the house already.

"Good afternoon Caroline…" he bowed his head and kept his pace, then he stopped and called the blonde girl.
Caroline looked back at him.

"I was wondering if Elisabeth was on a night shift tonight."
"Whose that?" Caroline frowned.

"Your mother… Liz." Elijah said holding the book in his hand closer to him.
"My… oh… well..." Caroline pursed her lips. "She's working."

"Thank you." Elijah ended the awkward talk and left quickly.
Caroline pointed at him and then recoiled her finger, she found Klaus neatly wrapping his art and packing it into boxes. He wasn't leaving without his art, that's for sure. "Your brother Elijah just asked about my mom… uncomfortable much?"

Klaus smiled closing another box. "I rather not comment on that. I have enough with Rebekah wanting to stay here and finish high school. In my mind Elijah is staying behind because of our sister that has been spending too much time with that human boy."
"I'm looking for the right word to describe how freaked out I am about the possibility of Elijah staying behind because of my mom..." Caroline shook her head and sat on the bed. "And Bekah is helping Matt, he is all alone now..." she sighed sad but then closed her eyes. "Urgh... I can't take the image of your brother and my mother out of my head now."

He laughed watching her and left the last box by the door before coming to the bed. "I really can't help you there love…" He took her cheek with his hand. "… but here's a thought..." he said against her lips and then kissed her.
Caroline took the back of his neck, entangled her fingers among his necklaces and parted her lips for him, she missed him too.

The last days had been too crazy with the funeral arrangements for Elena and getting everything ready to send Mikael back. Between all this and making sure Bonnie was really free of the curse while adjusting to waking up in his arms after their first night together, everything still felt very unreal to her. Though their current sweet battle of tongues was very real, just like their breaths changing and Caroline pulled him with her as she lay down on the bed.

"That's a good thought but I'm still searching for a good word to describe eww..." she said stroking the back of his neck when they broke the kiss.
He smiled and she felt her knees give in on her, those perfect lips of his kissed her bottom lip. "I find myself short of words when you are around sweetheart."

"Urgh… see? That's how you got the girl, with your perfect words even when you are at loss for them."
Klaus kissed her again and then smirked. "I knew there was a compelling reason to have a bed in this room."

She laughed adjusting her leg over his, stroking his hair evilly. "No… don't even think about it Nik… that perfection that happened in your bedroom needs time. Which we don't have, we need to be at the cemetery in one hour."
"You do realize that talking like that is having the very opposite effect on me don't you love?"

She kissed his pouty lips and licked her own because his stubble left them tingling. "Believe me… it's mutual but we need to go."
Klaus sighed heavy and loudly and pulled away from her but she smiled and quickly moved, he crashed on his back down on the bed with her straddling him. He smiled when she gave him a sweet look.

"But we can be a bit late… Bonnie is the one performing the spell anyway."
Klaus sneaked his hand between her cheek and her long locks and stroked the perfect skin under his touch. Caroline bent down searching for his lips and kissed him long and slowly taking advantage of having him just for herself.

Bonnie mumbled her spell and let out a gush of air as it seemed to make her very blood cold.
She opened her eyes and nodded at Kol. He pulled the knife out of Mikael's heart and the man gasped for air.

"You… I will hunt you all down and destroy you all. I will kill you and your siblings slow and painful… I will. I promi…" he didn't finish his bitter words. The man simply disappeared from the circle he was lying and Kol looked at Bonnie.

"Don't you just love emotional goodbyes?"
She gave him a look and then shook her head, she looked behind him and laughed. "Someone is late."

Caroline waved at her blushing. "Did we miss anything?"
"It was beautiful… he said how much he loved us and how sorry he was… brought tears to my eyes." Kol said pressing his chest.

Caroline rolled her eyes on him and walked away, there was something she needed to do before leaving.
She stopped on the tombstone and knelt cleaning the leaves away, she fixed the roses that were left on the grave this morning, just like every day.

"Do you think it's Damon?" Bonnie asked standing behind Caroline.
"I talked to Stefan, he is in the Himalayas trying to find peace and comfort somehow. He hasn't talked to Damon, no one has. He just… vanished."

"So maybe he arranged that she has roses delivered every day to her grave… since it's too painful for him to be here now that he really lost her."
Caroline nodded smiling through fresh tears, they knew it wasn't Jeremy because he left for Denver the afternoon after the service, set on never returning because he had no one left.

Caroline touched the letters engraved on the tombstone. "Elena Gilbert… I still can't believe she died Bonnie. After everything, she was the true victim from this entire damn curse."
"She wasn't Elena anymore Care… the Elena that we grew up with died on that bridge, Damon was right…" Bonnie said in a low voice. She smiled when she felt his arms around her and hid in them, they all needed time to heal.

Caroline cleaned her face and stood up. "Goodbye Elena… I'll never forget you." Quietly she turned and went to Klaus, he took her under his arm and she rested her head on his shoulder.
"So where are we going?" Kol asked eager to change the somber feel in the air.

"I don't know about you but Nik is taking me to Portugal. Maybe this time he can actually show me the country." she placed her hand on his chest.
"The way I see it, we started this entire story going back into the past, trapped in a very primal time and set on killing each other. Now that we've developed into couple status, we should travel together and try to kill each other in teams. I have the upper hand because the witch is on my team." he smugly looked at the woman under his arm.

Bonnie laughed. "I could always turn on you and fight alone."
Kol grimaced while the other two laughed.

"And I could simply dagger you and team up with the girls. Imagine all the possibilities." Klaus said in front of him without facing him.
"This could turn into a bit of a Hunger Games theme. I'm not sure I like the idea." Kol grumbled.

Bonnie smiled while the others kept teasing Kol about alliances and game references. She hid her hand inside his long-sleeved shirt and closed her eyes for a minute; she sure as hell didn't imagine that her life was taking this turn.

She was in love and in a relationship with the smug Original that was ready to die for her.
As the four of them made their way out of the cemetery talking and teasing each other effortlessly she realized her life was only truly beginning now.

They were all linked together by every action that led them to this very moment and every primal feeling that came from their hard journey together.

The end.
