"I... I'll check if there's power in the other rooms." I say breaking away from his grasp. I put my hand on my forhead and walked into one of the bathrooms. It was dark so I turned on the flashlight on my phone. I put my phone near the sink and sat down at the edge of the bathtub thinking. What the hell! My heart was beating out of my chest. I love Klaus, why do I keep covering it? I kissed him, and I wanted him but for now it's best nothing happens. My heart is still in shock and pain, going through my mother's death was not easy- isn't easy. I begin looking through cabinets and found four thick candles. I got out of the bathroom and made my way back to the living room where Klaus was lighting up a few candles himself using his phone as guidence.

"I see you have found some light source." I say sarcastically.

"You are not the only modernized person of the century love." He says smirking and taking the candles out of my hand.

"Klaus.. who is the witch we are going to see?" He finally lights all the candles and sits down on the couch. I sit too, letting one leg fall to the side while tucking the other one under my butt.

"A friend that will explain the dream." He says simply but not making eye contact.

"Is it... wrong that it seemed so real?" I ask and his head shoots up like a cannon. "I mean, when I woke up a few days ago I could've sworn I had gone through everything. And then I called Bonnie for a favor and it was like she hadn't heard from me in years." Klaus just looked at me with an expression I didn't see often... guilt.
"Klaus... you know something, don't you?" I asked a bit angry but keeping my voice calm.

"If I knew something love I wouldn't bother to drive to New York City, which is where we are going." He says casually. I stared at him through the dim light of the seven candles. Suddenly the lights came on again along with the T.V and I noticed the storm had stopped.
"Seems we are ready to get going again, I don't want to be trapped in this Hotel. We are wasting time, pack your bags love." He says breaking the silence and walking towards his room. But I knew better and began to follow him.

"Your stalling! Klaus, you DO know something!" I shouted. Suddenly he was in front of me. My heart stopped at the lack of space between us. I could feel warmth vibrating from his veins. I was speechless. I wanted Klaus... but I need to focus now.

"Pack your things love." He said simply. Before I could react he was inside of his room and a closed door was between us. I groaned and turned around on my heel heading to my room and packing all of my things.

Why does he have an affect on me? I feel something so... so... unrealistic. I reached out for my phone and a picture of Klaus and I appeard in my head.

"I love you ,Klaus." I say with a sigh. There was rain pouring down on our face. But I knew he was smiling.

"You finally admit to your emotions love?" He says with his casual smirk, "I have waited centuries to hear you say those words." He says cupping my head in his hands.

"I guess that's what love does to some people." I say in almost a whisper. Right after I finished what I had to say he kissed me. It was a passionate kiss. After some time we finally broke away- Klaus never letting my face go- he put our foreheads together.

"Love does strange things Caroline." I look into his deep blue eyes and smile.

"Then don't let me go." I felt a tear stream down my face.

"Caroline, If up to me I would never let you go... ," I cut him off.

"Then don't." I kissed him cutting off anything he had to say.

I came back to reality when I heard Klaus knock on my door.

"Caroline... Caroline love are you ok?" He says rushing to my side.

"Yeah, why?" I ask.

"I heard something break and called your name but you wouldn't answer so I grew worried... ." His gaze fell to my feet and he looked shocked. I let my gaze fall as well and found my phone's screen shattered on the ground. I gasped and went down to grab it.

"Let's get going, I'll buy you a new phone once we get to New York." I nodded and casually put my phone in my back pocket... old habits are hard to break. Twenty minutes later we were on our way to New York City.
