Caroline woke up early the next morning, trying to get up but found she couldn't. When she realized something was holding her down, she saw Klaus' arms draped around her waist holding her possessively, and all the events of the previous night came rushing back; the tango hall, Marco, Klaus.
I just slept with Klaus.
Caroline turned on her side to face the sleeping devil in her bed. He looked so peaceful, so human. She couldn't help but slightly furrow her brows in confusion and frustration. The man laying next to her had done so many horrible things- including almost killing her, yet she couldn't find it in herself to regret the night before. Because she saw him for who he really was now, a man who had suffered 1,000 years of pain, betrayal, and fear and all he had ever wanted was to be loved. Of course, Caroline didn't love him.
Pft. Of course I don't. At least.. not yet.
Klaus' eyes flickering open drew her from her thoughts. He stared at her with his deep blue eyes and smiled
"Good morning, love."
"Good morning," Caroline response hesitantly.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Absolutely nothing is wrong," she said before pecking him on the lips softly. She glanced at the clock on the nightstand and giggled when she realized they had slept until midday.
"Are we leaving today?" Caroline asked.
"Yes we are. I think you'll like where we're headed," Klaus answered with a smirk, once again not telling her where he was taking her, to which Caroline rolled her eyes. She started to get up from bed to go get ready, before Klaus jumped up, grabbed her by the waist, and flopped the pair back on the huge bed.
"Klaus!" Caroline squeaked.
He only chuckled in reply, gently sweeping a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"What are you doing to me, love?" Klaus whispered while caressing her cheek with his thumb.
"I should be saying the same thing," Caroline responded with a small smile. He stopped his ministrations to look deeply into her eyes.
"I'm serious, sweetheart. What are you doing?"
Caroline took a breath before responding. "I'm taking a chance."
"Are you sure? Because once I've got you, I won't ever let you go."
Caroline was surprised by the possessiveness in his tone, but it don't affect her. She pressed a light kiss to his lips and whispered against them, "You won't have to."
