"Bonnie!"

"I'm sorry! I had to do something. He was about to take her away." The witch replied sheepishly, her hands clouding over her coffee.

They had informed Caroline on the events of what happened at the ball yesterday, and to say she was pissed was an understatement.

"Why wasn't I told of this!?"

Bonnie sighed. "Look Care, I know you'd love to help, and I would love for you to, but I'm going to have to second on Elena. It's too dangerous."

"But I'm a vampire! Why else do you thing I was turned?"

"Well, to live for starters. Your death was retaliation, so we're looking out for you."

Caroline nodded. "Yeah I guess. But can I at least help you?"

"Sure. I'd love that." She smiled.

Caroline grinned her Miss Mystic Falls smile.

Bonnie's phone rippled a smooth tune and she sipped her drink quickly before taking it out.

Caroline watched her friend scan her eyes through, what seems to be, a text. It looked like a bad one, because Bonnie suddenly had a horrified expression on her face. Caroline looked at her in alarm.

"What?!"

Bonnie swallowed slowly.

"We need to get to the Salvatore Boarding House. Now."

Caroline didn't have enough time to sip her drink because Bonnie was grabbing her arm and pushing her out Coffee Kind in a hurry.

"What the hell is happening Bonnie?!" She yelled as they walked towards the boarding house.

Bonnie swallowed the lump in her throat.

"I can't exactly say his name because, look! I'm already shaking!" She pointed at her arms, then shook her head and lifted her hand to knock on the door.

She cast a warning glance at Caroline who stopped her and opened the door, walking in.

"What? Is there some kind of power puff girl meeting going on I should be warned about?"

Bonnie pressed her lips together.

"Okay..Bonnie your starting to freak me out what's going on?"

"We should go and ask Damon."

Caroline shrugged it off and walked towards the living room where the rest of the gang was. They were talking about something.

"...so what? You just walk in here like some kind of Lord from the medieval days? What kind of-"

"...you should know when to keep your mouth shut Salvatore."

That voice.

God, it sounded so hot and British. Was there a guest she wasn't warned about?

She walked in. "So when was I going to be informed about this?! You literally blocked my number on purpose Damon!"

His eyes widened and he stared at Stefan and Elena for help.

"Care, maybe you should-"

She has had it. "Maybe you should shut up for a change."

Elena's jaw dropped.

Caroline smiled faking sweet and looked at the far corner where a handsome man was sitting, a Henley which he occupied and modeled. His abs were on display and she was drooling inside.

His trousers were ripped which meant he picked a fight with Damon, not tht she was complaining.

"Who's the hot guy? I'm kind of on a bipolar stage so, details."

The man smirked, and his raspberry lips curved into a smile that she was kind of sure made her die.

Stefan cleared his throat.

"That's um, Klaus."

Her eyes widened and she watched as Klaus walked towards her, hands behind his back. When he was sure they were inches from each other, he gave her a puppy face.

"What's your name?" His voice was gruff, and horse and it send shivers down her spine. The soothing touch in it made her feel things inside.

"Caroline. Forbes. And before you try to attack me or something I just wanna let you know my mom is the sheriff and she wouldn't be happy if she found out you killed her daughter."

By now, everyone in the room had horrified faces, except Caroline.

He laughed. He actually laughed.

There was amusement in his eyes, and she could catch that he wasn't going to kill her anytime soon.

"I apologise if I gave you that impression, dear Caroline," it sounded so hot on his lips. "But I assure you, I won't kill you. And my prefrences are available to sorry for scaring you or the sheriff."

"Did he just say sorry?!" Damon whispered to Stefan.

Caroline nodded and took her hand out for him to shake, except- he wasn't shaking it. He was too busy admiring her.

"So..you going to shake my hand? Or just check me out?"

He snapped out of his haze and smiled, taking her hand, liking the electricity he felt in his veins when they touched.

She however, was confused as fuck. What was that?! Did she just feel that? Was he a superhero or something with superpowers?

"On to other mandering subjects," He looked at Caroline a little longer before casting his gaze towards the four people. "I want you to keep Elena safe. Meaning, taking turns to being around her all the time."

Another person looking out for Elena?! Are you fucking serious?

She sighed inwardly and just watched the exchange, smiling slightly when the big bad hybrid looked towards her.

When it was time for his leave, he threatened Damon one more time and faced her.

"I quite like you." He smirked. "Stick around."

And he flashed away, like really quickly.

They all turned toward her.

"What the hell was that about!?" Stefan yelled.
