Every relationship has its complications, right? At least, that’s what Caroline keeps telling herself. After all, there has to be another couple out that is comprised of one murderous, revenge-seeking, psychopathic hybrid and one insecure, neurotic, control freak vampire… right? There had to be other couples whose relationships were constant messes of emotions, of change, of suspicion, of love. There had to be other couples that were on a constant zigzag through life, one minute completely in love and the next screaming bloody murder at each other…

…Right?

Oh who I am even kidding? There isn’t anyone else out there that are like Klaus and I.

But, maybe that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. After all, even though they were constantly loving and constantly fighting, they always returned to each other, and Caroline was sure they always would.

Because Klaus and her, for all their faults, worked. They worked more than any other couple they had ever met.

Sometimes, Caroline would just sit there and she could feel him staring at her and she would know exactly what he was thinking. Klaus would throw her these looks saying ‘you’re beautiful’ or ‘there is no one like you’ or ‘I love you’. And she would look back at him and think ‘I love you more than anything’ and she would know that he understood.

And, yes, sometimes they fought, sometimes they raged and they hated each other, but then he would give her another look, and she would understand him, and she would love him.

So, even though their life and their relationship was constantly zigzagging around them, even though it was complicated, Caroline knew that she would always have Klaus. And she knew that he would always have her.

Because they belonged together.

Simple as that.               

Y - YOURS

The first time Caroline told him that she loved him, Klaus had been unable to say anything back. He’d been stuck, knowing what he felt but incapable of expressing it. For a terrifying moment, he had thought that she would take it all back, leave, and make his soaring heart plunge back down to earth.

Instead, she had just given him a small, understanding smile and had taken his hand in hers.

Klaus knew that Caroline was aware of his affections, she had known for a long time, even once calling him out on it.

“I know that you’re in love with me.”

But, he knew that, with every time she told him ‘I love you’ and he didn’t say it back, it hurt more and more. Because he knew Caroline. She was beautiful, and strong, and full of light, but deep inside she was terrified of what other’s thought of her, deep inside she thought no one could love her, or put her first.

Just as he had always thought of himself.

But then she told him she loved him. Again and again.

He wasn’t quite sure how many times she told him when suddenly, out of the blue, he found himself pulling her into his arms and kissing her like it was his last day on earth. He could feel Caroline gasp in surprise under his lips but wrap her arms tightly around his neck anyways.

When he pulled away, she looked up at him with a dazed expression, a smile playing at her features. “What was that for?” She asked.

Klaus took a breath.

“I love you.” He admitted, watching as Caroline’s expression went from amused to shocked, her eyes widening. And then suddenly she was pulling him into a kiss, her lips pressing against his fervently.

She only pulled back so she could whisper something to him. “I love you too. So much.” Klaus smiled against her and pulled her closer.

Later that night, she laid against him, sleeping soundly, her head resting over his heart. Klaus had his arm wrapped tightly around her bare waist, holding her gently as he watched her with the smile that had yet to leave his lips. 

“Mine.” She sighed, shifting against him before once again growing comfortable in her sleep.

“Yours.” Klaus whispered in return.

Always yours, Caroline.

X - XYLEM

“And then?” Klaus prompted, sounding supremely bored, arms crossed over his chest as he sat back on her bed, legs spread out in front of him.

“Uh…” Caroline thought for a moment, trying to recall the right facts. “This transpiration or ‘pull or tension’ extends all the way down the xylem to the root.” She smiled when he nodded. “What’s next?” She asked.

“What’s next is we stop talking about cohesion tension theory.” Klaus said, causing Caroline to turn and look up from her meticulous notecards. She glanced at him questioningly, finding him looking back with a smirk.

“Fine.” Caroline muttered, rifling through her notecards. “I suppose I can stop with biology for a bit and move onto history.” 

“Love, that really isn’t what I meant.” Suddenly, a pair hands were taking her notes from her fingers, the ones she needed in order to pass her finals next week.

“Hey!’ Caroline exclaimed, reaching out to get them back only to have Klaus hold them above their heads, chuckling as she continued to attempt to retrieve them. “Will you quit it?”

He only laughed more as she wrestled him for them until suddenly she found herself lying on his chest, faces only a few inches apart. His smirk faded into a half-smile, his eyes gleaming with something she dared not identify. She felt sparks all along where there bodies were touching and Caroline found herself staring at those luscious lips of his. She moved closer and closer…

Abruptly, she pulled back and rolled off him, clearing her throat awkwardly. “I really do have to study if I want to pass those finals, Klaus.” She said as he sat up, looking over at her patiently, folding his hands in his laps. “And you promised you’d help me… you know, as a friend.”

“That I did.” He replied with a slight sigh, before smiling at her. “As a friend.” He handed her back the cards, and as their fingers brushed, Caroline felt the sparks again. She pulled away slowly, his eyes burning into hers, wearing his infamous smirk.

“Right.” She whispered. “Friends.” She tucked some of hair behind her ear as she turned back to her cards.

After a few moments, Caroline glanced back at him to find him looking at her, his eyes holding hers intensely. 

She sent him a small, genuine smile.

When Klaus smiled back, Caroline’s stomach filled with butterflies.

Yeah, friends.
