Mixing Business With Pleasure |Klaroline Story|

Chapter 40

Caroline's POV
I wake up from the sun in my face and I still feel Klaus's arm around my waist while he still sleeps.

"Klaus wake up." I say shaking his arm. "Come on we have to get ready for work." I say to him as I continue to shake his arm.

"Mmh why?" He groans.

"Do you wanna to be late for work?" I asked him.

"I actually woke up a few hours ago to tell you that you are on vacation for today." Klaus says.

"What are you talking about?" I questioned him.

"Caroline, I want you to spend the day with me. No work, No stress. Just you and me. I called Kol and he said he would look after Mikaelson industries for me and Elena will take your place." Klaus admits to me.

"Are you serious?" I asked him surprised.

"Yes, please accept it. I really want to spend the day with you. I also need a break from all this work and divorce stuff that's been going on. Plus you deserve a break from work and dealing with me for 24 hours." Klaus says and it does sound nice. I guess spending the day out of work with Klaus sounds like a pretty good idea.

"Okay yes, I accept." I say to him and I see a bright smirk on his face. Klaus leans in to kiss me on the cheek and on my jawline which tickles me a little. Klaus notices and so he continues to kiss me there to make my laugh. " Okay okay." I say laughing while I try to stop him.

"Thank you Caroline. You won't regret this." He say to me and Klaus kisses me one last time on the forehead before he climbs off the bed.

I felt after last night. He's more happier and calm and less stress. This is the Klaus I love to see. This is the real him. Just a kind and caring person.

*****
Klaus and I got ready to spend our day together and I'm actually really excited to be spending the day with him. I think this is what he needed and I'm here for him.

"Are you ready love?" Klaus asked me and I nod my head. Klaus takes my hand and he takes me out of the house and I see this black expensive car outside.

"Klaus, what is this? Where's the limo?" I questioned him surprised.

"This is my car. I have plenty of cars but I normally don't drive because I always have my limo on speed dial to come get me but I thought we can spend the day without looking at a dark shaded window where you can't see everything outside." Klaus says and I smile.

"It's a nice car. It's definitely a car that screams Klaus." I say to him.

"Thanks love." He says and Klaus kisses the back of my hand. "Come on. We have many things to do today." He says and he takes me into his car as he helps me in.

Klaus's car looks so brand new and the seats are a lot more comfortable than the limo. I love it. Klaus starts his engine and before he drives, I feel Klaus's hand on top of mine as he grips it a bit tight in a comforting way.

"So where are we off to first?" I asked him.

"I want to take you to this amazing cafe for breakfast and after that I have a little surprised place to show you." Klaus says to me.

"Great. I can't wait." I say and Klaus begins to drive off.

I didn't know this but Klaus is a great driver. I don't know why I thought this but I thought Klaus was too busy to learn how to drive but he's great at it.

"How long you've been driving?" I asked him. Might as well make conversation in the car.

"For as long as I can remember. I would say... I started driving back in high school. For me at school, I always had an expensive car because when my father was alive, he never wanted me to drive a regular old car so he had me drive, Cadillacs, BMWs, Lamborghinis, and Corvettes. I never had a simple, less expensive car like the normal kids." Klaus explains to me.

"Do you miss your dad?" I asked him.

"If I'm honest, me and my father didn't have a good relationship. He was always tough on me and always wanted me to whatever he wanted me to do. There were even times when he beat me for not listening to him. When I think about it, I don't think I ever heard him say I love you to me. Not even when I was just a boy. So no. I don't really miss my father." He admits to me and I nod.

I had no idea Klaus had a hard childhood. I thought he had everything and life was perfect for him but I guess not. He grow up his whole life not being loved by his own father. My dad wasn't always there for me all the time but I know my dad loves me. He tells me that all the time. Even still.

I hope you guys love this chapter.
