We Belong Together...Forever!

Clearing the Air!

Caroline POV

We reached a small diner soon enough. And like Klaus said earlier it was practically empty besides an old man,who was sipping his coffee while reading a tabloid. Klaus pulled out a chair for me like a true gentleman.

I was literally beaming at him, there was so much that I wanted to say, so many questions that I wanted to ask but meeting him was overwhelming me.
I suppose he understood how I was feeling and that is the reason he ordered coffee and sandwiches for the two of us. He looked at me patiently, his hand holding mine at the center of the table. This encouraged me enough to form words & express everything to him.

"So…you must be very curious I believe. And it is totally understandable. I mean its not everyday that someone springs this kind of stuff on you right? Alright. I am rambling. Again. Well, the thing is that I am a Forbes. We have a magical line, my ancestors they came up with the blessing of soul-mates. Apollo the Olympian god of sun is actually the one who started our family tree. Every generation of ours has different powers, like telekinesis, telepathy etc. However I am an exception. I have been blessed with certain powers that shadows Apollo's and I am an immortal too. That’s because of you by the way. When Forbes cross their 18th birthday they get dreams and visions from Apollo who guide us to our Soul Threads. He visited me too in my dream. And that’s how I ended up here in Chicago. I have come all the way from California. And my Soul Thread guided me to you. When we touched I suppose you felt like being electrocuted right? That was my soul connecting to yours. And I know what and who you are…my dreams helped me to understand what you went through in all these thousand years of your life. So that’s about it." I said.

I kept looking at our hands. I did not have the courage to face him. What if he did not accept me? What if he ran away from all this? Maybe I should leave before he rejects me. All these thoughts kept bothering me.

Klaus POV

This was so much to take in. Caroline is my Soul-mate, we are tied together. I never thought that someone would be mine. My other half. She said that…that she dreamed about me?…me a monster. She knows what and who I am and still came all the way here in Chicago for ME! Yet again she left me speechless. Did she really not care about my past doings. What if it becomes to much for her? And now it was practically impossible for me to let her go. I had so may doubts. So I spoke after hearing her.

"Caroline. Wow I just cannot explain how I feel knowing that we are meant to be together. You had dreams about me…but I am not really sure how do you feel about me. I mean after knowing about my kind, what I do to people, everyone calls me a monster and you still came here to be with me. What if it becomes to much for you, I am not a good person. I am NO ANGEL. But love I also cannot bear the thought of you leaving me. I fell for you the moment I saw you. You are a true goddess. Full of light & happiness. And I am dark & bring nothing but destruction…" but was sharply interrupted by Caroline in mid sentence.

"Shut up Klaus! Don’t you dare call yourself A MONSTER…what the hell…why would you say that…so what if you a hybrid, I don’t give a damn, you get that. And like I said I know everything about your life. Your good for nothing & bitchy parents…that bloody Esther she should ROT IN HELL & your SPINELESS stepfather, who should be brought back to life so that I can TORTURE him to death again & again. It is because of them that you have become slightly dark but that does not mean you are allowed to call yourself these names. Listen to me Klaus right now what is holding me on this earth is you. You are everything to me. And I have my fears too…all I think is that you might find this too much to bear and leave me…"

And this time I stopped her in between.

"No Caroline! You are also not allowed to let these thoughts plague your mind. I can never let you go now love. You are completely mine. You don’t even know how my wolf reacted to you, it wants only you. Let them go…all those fears. To know that you think so highly of me & are so protective for me is a relief. I always feared betrayal, there was no one for me to trust. But now after meeting you I can really say that you have my trust. We will be together from now on. And nobody can take me away from you. Nothing. You get that my dear." I kissed her hand with that.

And the way she trembled & blushed at my touch made me feel like a King, who now had his Queen. My Queen Caroline Forbes.
