Friendship or Love (A Klaroline Fanfic)

Chapter Six

Everybody was ready but Rebekah. She was doing her make-up, not that she needed it. She'd been upstairs getting ready for two and a half hours, and the boys couldn't understand what was taking her so long, as they only took about 20 minutes to have a shower and get dressed. Must be a girl thing. They all thought while they waited. 

Elijah was wearing a grey silk suit - like always - with his crisp white collars. Thankfully Kol and Klaus persuaded him to lose the tie as he refuses to change into something more club-like. 

Stefan was in simple dark blue jeans with a plain grey t-shirt. 

Kol was in black ripped skinny jeans - because he loves his legs - with a chain swinging low from one side of his belt to the other. And he was in a black t-shirt with three blood claw marks going across his chest. He looked a little like an emo, but looked hot - well from a girl's point of view. 

Klaus was in black jeans that hung off his hips perfectly, and a plain white short-sleeved Henley that hugged him in all the right places. You could see his necklaces peeking out from his undone buttons. 

They were all sitting in the living room with a glass of bourbon each and talking - well more like listening to Kol talk - while waiting for Rebekah. 

"Well I'm going out now. So.. Have a nice time clubbing." Henrik told his brothers. 

"Yeah, have a nice time with April." Kol called out cheekily. The boys chuckled at Kol teasing Henrik. 

"Haha Kol, you really are a clown. Oh and don't forget to take protection out with you, you know, if you ever get the balls to actually speak to Bonnie." Henrik shouted back, before leaving the house, leaving Kol with his mouth agape, not quite believing his little brother just said that, and the rest of them in hysterics. Rebekah chose that moment to come down stairs. 

"What's so funny?" She asked, confused as to why they were laughing so hard. 

Stefan immediately stopped laughing as soon as he saw his fiancé. She looked undoubtedly sexy in her 3/4 sleeved plain black dress, topped with a thick red belt and red stiletto heels. Her eyes were smoky and her lips were nude. Rebekah smiled as his lust filled eyes scanned her body. Their bubble popped once they heard a voice reply to her now forgotten question. 

"Kol just got put in his place by our younger brother." Klaus managed to get out still laughing. Rebekah started to chuckle seeing her brother's stunned expression. Before she could make a comment, Kol seemed to have snapped out of his shock but spoke in a daze-like voice. 

"Let's go." He got up and walked out of the room and out the house. They all started laughing again by how fazed Kol was about Henrik's comment. Once they calmed themselves down, they made their way to Elijah's car where Kol was waiting. 

The car ride was normal: Kol and Bekah were arguing over silly things while Elijah and Stefan were discussing an old book that they were both interested in. Klaus was just gazing out the window, thinking about what he was going to say to Caroline. He felt a sudden wave of nervousness wash through him. He has no idea how the situation will go. He is honestly hoping they get to talk, so he can finally tell her that he feels the same. Every time he tries to plan out how it will go and what he'll say, his mind goes blank. While Klaus was lost in his thoughts, he failed to notice that Kol and Bekah had stopped arguing and started speaking quietly.

------------------

Caroline was trying very hard not to panic. Ok, she was already panicking. She didn't know why she had even agreed to this. She keeps picturing Klaus laughing at her. Laughing at her stupidity. Laughing over the fact that she was in love with him and he didn't feel the same. Kol had demanded that she had to come out with them. He said that she was going to make Nik jealous. She didn't believe for a moment that it's going to work, but his voice was so determined that she eventually gave in. He then asked her to get there before him and to get her 'flirt on' with someone.
