chapter 6 'why now?!"

caroline's pov

its been about an hour since Kol came and joined me in the closet, i woke up about half an hour after i fell asleep. since then me and Kol have just been hugging and talking and laughing. one good thing about Kol, he can get your mind off of any bad situation no matter what it is. he was there for me when my first dog died, he was there when i split up with my first boyfriend, when i had a big argument with my dad and brothers, when my mum died...any bad situation i can think of Kol has always been there to comfort me and i couldn't be more grateful. 

"what you thinking about?" i hear Kol whisper while he rubs my arm, pulling me out of my thoughts. i look up at him to see him already looking down at me with a small smile and that little twinkle in his eyes.

"you" he smirks at me and cocks and eyebrow at me.

"ow really, good things i hope?" he says with cockiness lacing his tone. i roll my eyes at him then chuckle. i look back into his eyes and we keep eye contact.

"of course, i'm just thinking about how much you have helped me, through everything. my mums death, the arguments between me and my dad or brothers, Tyler..everything, i don't know why you help me so much, i'm nothing special, i'm just Ben and Jake's little sister and the girl that got screwed over by Tyler" i look down, not being able to look him in the eyes when i say that. i feel his hand softly grip my chin then tilt my head up to look at him.

"don't ever say that you're not special OK? you're special to me and you always have been, i help you so much because you mean so much to me, it hurts me when i see you sad or hurt and i think i'm the only one who truly knows how close you are to breaking and falling over the edge, I'm here to keep that from happening. i care about you so much Caroline, i just don't think you realized how much" he whispers softly. i would never have expected Kol to say that, i only thought he put up with me because he's Jake's best friend not because he wants to. he's right as well, i'm so close to just breaking and becoming UN-savable and right now all i need is someone to see that and help me. i just don't understand why he thinks he needs to help me, i mean he doesn't have to so why does he?

"i don't get it though, why do you help me? you could be living your life to the fullest instead of sitting in closet's with me talking about my problems" i say with confusion in my tone. he looks at the wall then back to me.

"i help you because you are an incredible human being that i cant get over, i cant get you out of my head. i help you because i know that you would help me if i was in this situation. you are worth saving Caroline and never let anyone tell you any different" i try to take in his words that i've never heard before. 

"i still don't understand though, wh-" he quickly cuts me off before i can say anything else.

"shut up Caroline" he says with an amused tone. i stare at him in awe for a second but get pulled back to reality when he puts his lips against mine. i widen my eyes as his lips move against mine. after a few seconds of me not kissing back he pulls away with his eyes closed. he rests his forehead against mine. "please kiss me back Caroline" he whispers then puts his lips back against mine. this time i close my eyes as well and kiss him back. his hands grip my waist and pulls me onto his lap so i'm straddling him. i wrap my arms around his neck and tangle my fingers in his hair. he licks my bottom lip asking for access. i open my mouth immediately and straight away our tongues move together. i can't believe this is happening, i wanted this to happen for ages but eventually gave up but now it's actually happening. i feel his hands move from my waist to my bum, i squirm a bit when he squeezes it but i carry on kissing him, i tug at his hair making him moan into the kiss. he pulls away and rests his forehead against mine again but keeps his eyes closed.

"wow, you have no idea how long i've wanted to do that" i smirk at his words then rest my head in the crook of his neck.

"why didn't you ever do it sooner then, i used to like you Kol but i always thought you never liked me like that" he chuckles and shaked his head.

"i have liked you for ages, i never kissed you because you was with Tyler and the reason for before then is because Ben and Jake told me if i ever even thought of you like that then they would kill me" i roll my eyes at the typical Ben and Jake move. but then the reality of what Kol just said kicks in, he's liked me..for ages...me? i smile at him then crash my lips against his. we move our lips against each others for a few minutes before we get cut off by the bell for next lesson. i pull away from him and see him smiling at me. i quickly peck his lips before i grab my bag then wink at him and walk out.
