Mixing Business With Pleasure |Klaroline Story|

Chapter 48

Caroline's POV
After Elena left, I've been thinking about our conversation that we had about Klaus. I just don't believe Klaus is in love with me. He's going through a hard time right now. We build a friendship that we can trust and talk to each other.

I hear the door open and it's Klaus. He immediately takes off his work jacket and tosses it by the chair next to the door.

"Hello Love." He says to me. "How are you feeling?" He asked me.

"Great. I feel all better." I admit to him.

"That's good." He says and he sounds exhausted. I can imagine how much hard work he had to do today.

"Tell me about your day? I want to know." I asked him and Klaus flops on the bed. He gives me a eye brow raise but he fixes it.

"My day was stressful but the truth is it was harder not having you there." Klaus says and I try not to blush. I put up an annoyed face to cover up my blush.

"Why do you always do that?" I questioned him.

"What?" He asked confused.

"You know what. You always try to charm me. You say all these nice things and all these compliments. Why do you always do that?" I questioned him again.

"I can't help myself love. You're just so beautiful." He says and I groan and climb off the bed as I roll my eyes.

"There you go again with the compliments." I complain to him.

"Okay Caroline, I'm sorry. I'm just a man of honesty." Klaus says as he climbs out of bed and walks up closer to me.

"I know you are but you have to stop." I say to him.

"Alright. I'll try to control myself with the compliments." He says and Klaus starts to lean in and kiss me on the cheek and he starts to kiss my jawline and my chin.

"Good." I say to Klaus and he starts to kiss my neck. His lips are warm as he leaves small wet kisses on my neck. I feel Klaus making his way behind my ear and it causes me to let out a soft moan escape from my mouth.

"I'm a lucky man to have a woman as strong,....smart.....and beautiful as you." Klaus says in between kisses on my neck. I can't deny that he gives me butterflies when he says that. It makes me wonder if that's how he really feels about me.

I start to feel tears, swelling up in my eyes. I start to cry and as I cry, I still hear Klaus's compliments again.

"Sexy and fierce" he says in my ear as he continues to kiss behind my ear.

"Stop!" I push him off and I run to the bathroom. I stand by the sink as I let out my tears. I don't know why I'm really crying. I love all the compliments that Klaus gives me but I hate how he makes me feel. What if Elena's right? What if I'm the one that's falling in love in this fake relationship.

"Caroline." I hear Klaus's voice.

"Go away." I say to him as I turn my head to the other direction.

"Please love. Talk to me." He says as he steps closer to me.

"No. I can't even look at you." I say as I shift my body so now Klaus can only see my back.

"Why? What are you so afraid of?" Klaus questioned me.

"I'm afraid of you!" I blurt out as I turn and face him.

"Why are you afraid of me?" He questions me and Klaus walks closer to me.

"I'm a afraid of my feelings for you. I thought I could avoid my feelings for long but I can't. I like you to much Klaus." I admit to him. "Gosh, I wish I wasn't so stupid and easy." I curse myself. "Look Klaus, I don't think we can be in this fake relationship anymore. I think we should just call it off and stay as business partners. That's how it should have been the whole time." I say to him "I'll move out in the morning." I say as I walk pass Klaus and he grabs my arm.

"Don't turn your back on me Caroline. I'm not going through that again. My whole life, I had people leave me because of who I am but you, I can't loose you." He says to me. "You say you are the one falling in love but I have already fell for you the moment I saw you Caroline." He admits to me.

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

"The day I saw you, I realized I could have handle it better. I thought you were the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. I knew that there had to be some way I could get to know you. I took a risk knowing that you are my assistant but I couldn't resist how gorgeous you are. I asked you to be my date, I asked you to be my girlfriend and I asked you to spend the day with me. Every moment I spent with you was the best moments of my life. All I wanted to do was to get to know you and to be close to you and when I did, I realize that you are more than just a pretty face. You're everything that I want in a women and you are just perfect and I fancy you." Klaus admits to me. I had no idea that he felt this way.

"So please Caroline. Don't leave me. I need you. I need you by my side." Klaus begs me and I start to tear up again.

"Okay I won't leave you. I promise." I say to him and I see a relief expression on Klaus's face.

"Thank you." Klaus says and he leans but he doesn't kiss me. He hugs me and the hug is really comforting.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter.
