Stiles Stilinski-Gilbert

Chapter 72

Stiles woke up the next morning with a horrible headache and the urge to vomit up everything that he ate the night before. All he wanted to do was wallow in bed and maybe cry for a bit. Instead, he got a boyfriend that urged him out of bed and into the shower, clothed him and then made sure he ate something for breakfast before announcing that Stefan sent him a message asking for help.

Stiles obviously pointed out that Stefan helped kill Kol and therefore shouldn't be helped but Klaus informed Stiles that Stefan was actually working on getting the dagger off of Rebekah for him that day. So, he couldn't have been helping Elena. Stiles tried a different tactic and reminded Klaus that Elena was living with the Salvatores, and he didn't wish to see her, but Klaus then informed him that Damon had taken Elena too New York with him on their journey to find Katherine. Klaus had apparently sent Damon a text with the information that Hayley gave them.

Finally, Stiles attempted to say that they couldn't leave Hayley here all alone, but Klaus said that it wasn't a problem as the werewolf left early in the morning. Stiles eventually reminded Klaus that he needed to research to bring Jeremy back, but Klaus asked him straight up if Stiles actually wanted to research right now or if he wanted to attempt to find Silas with him and get some revenge.

Which leads to now with Stiles and Klaus entering the Salvatore boarding house and finding the place a complete mess with Caroline cleaning up the place. They both watch as the blond pauses for a second before shrugging to herself and drinking from a red solo cup before throwing it into the trash bag in her hands.

"Desperate times, I take it?" Klaus says cluing Caroline into their arrival.

The blonde doesn't look over at them and instead continues cleaning.

"What are you doing here?" Caroline asks.

"Not judging you, for starters, although if you are determined to get drunk, then perhaps I might recommend something a little more sanitary?" Klaus says.

"I'm judging you." Stiles informs because whilst he wants revenge he does not want to be anywhere near these people.

He used to love them, he used to care about them. Now...now he couldn't care less.

Maintaining eye contact, Caroline picks up another cup and drains it before throwing it into the bin bag.

"Gross." Stiles mutters.

"Well, then. You showed me." Klaus states.

"Shouldn't you be out chasing Tyler to the ends of the earth? Or are there still some hopes and dreams you wanna crush around here?" Caroline asks.

"Depends. Do you happen to know where the young Brutus is?" Klaus inquires.

"I know where he's not...with me. And he gave Matt the deed to the house, so he's gone for good." Caroline huffs, obviously upset.

"Tyler made it his life's mission to kill him, Caroline. Klaus is just keeping himself safe. Tyler is the one who made the decisions that led him here." Stiles explains.

"He killed his mother!" Caroline snaps.

"After Tyler attempted to kill him!" Stiles snaps back.

"You know what, I don't care anymore. So, if you don't mind I'd like to go back to spiralling, so go away." Caroline huffs.

"Actually, I asked them to be here. We need their help. I think Silas is in Mystic Falls." Stefan informs.

"So, some blood went missing from a few hospitals. What about Elena? Don't vampires with their humanity off tend to overindulge in human blood, or were you the exception?" Klaus asks Stefan.
