Mixing Business With Pleasure |Klaroline Story|

Chapter 12

Caroline's POV
"You wanted to see me sir?" I asked him.

"Yes, I'm sure you are aware of the rumors that's been going around." Klaus says and I roll my eyes.

"Yeah which one? The one where they think I'm your girlfriend or I'm just a fling?" I questioned him

He sighs. "You're upset and you should be." Klaus says.

"I'm more than upset. This rumor is literally ruining my life." I state him.

"I didn't know this would get this bad but I did tell you why I like to have my personal relationship private. A lot of people love to make assumptions about me. Some to even ruin my reputation." Klaus explains.

"I don't think this news is about you ruining your reputation. It's about them thinking I'm your girlfriend or just some girl you're sleeping with." I say to Klaus and I might have said it a bit vexed then I intended but I couldn't help it.

"You're not neither of those things. You're my assistant." He tells me.

"Well can you tell the press that?" I asked him.

"I can't because then they will make up fake news about me sleeping with my assistant to make me look bad and that can definitely ruin me and possible you." Klaus explains and I slap my head with my hand.

At this point, there is nothing good coming out of this. How did I get myself in this situation?

"I just wish there was a way to fix all of this." I say to Klaus.

"Then let's change the story." Klaus says and I look up at him. "If you be my girlfriend, I will make this story go away. People will eventually know but after a few weeks, no one will think your just a fling. I know you don't want to date me because it makes you have less freedom but we can figure this out Caroline. Please I'm desperate. You help me and I'll help you." Klaus begs and I can tell he really wants this. I hate being called a fling and I don't want this to ruin my life.

Maybe being his girlfriend will draw some attention but at least it will be a good one. I kind of always wanted to be a celebrity but dating one was never my intention.

"Fine, I'll be your girlfriend." I agree and Klaus face brightens up. "But there has to be some rules in order for this to work." I say to Klaus. I need there to be rules but I don't want anything to slip up for this.

I think with some rules in this relationship we can make this believable and successful in the end.

"Of course but I have a lot of work to do but we can talk again about this in my office for lunch." Klaus suggested and that sounds pretty good.

"Yes that's perfect actually." I say to him.

"Thank you Caroline." Klaus says to me as he takes one of my hands and hold it.

"Don't thank me yet until this actually works." I say to him and I begin to walk out of his office.

As I close Klaus's office door, I feel a bit relieved and I don't know why. Maybe it's because all the drama and the fake news will finally be over or I get to be famous for a few months.

All I know is that I am feeling better now.

I hope you guys loved this chapter. It's a bit short but next chapter will be a bit longer.
