"Do you think it's too late for me to just go home?" I whispered quietly to Tyler as Caroline walked in front us and into the school.
"How are you going to do that?" He asked, lowering his voice.
"I was hoping that you would distract her and I could just slip away."
"Here's a better plan," he muttered back to me. "We get someone to make some big 'catastrophe' and when she's gone to fix it we can both go home."
"That sounds like a good-"
Caroline turned round to face us in the hallway, her hands set on her hips as she levelled the two of us with a glare. "I can hear you both you know."
"So," I muttered making her roll her eyes. "I just want to go home."
"Come on Julietta," Caroline said rolling her eyes as she tugged me into the room after her. "You helped me plan the dance so you have to be here."
I rolled my eyes and followed slowly after her, tugging at the bottom of my peach coloured dress down. Maybe the dance could distract me from the diary that was still hidden under my mattress. "Care, I look ridiculous and I just want to go home."
She scoffed as Tyler walked up to us. "You don't look ridiculous, you look like a flapper girl," she stated in matter of fact manner.
"Like there's any difference."
"Shut up Julietta." She bumped my hips with hers. "You look hot."
"She's right you now," a voice laced with a British accent cut in.
From the corner of my eye, I saw Tyler stiffen dramatically and I straightened up before turning on my heel to look at Kol. As soon as I had turned round, I watched his eyes roam shamelessly across me and I took the opportunity to do the same. Why did he have to be so sinfully handsome?
His eyes finally met mine and he held out his hand for mine. "Dance with me."
I pursed my lips when I picked up that it was an order rather than a request. Slipping a gloved hand into his, I took a step towards him determined to keep his attention away from Tyler. "Only one."
"Of course." His gaze slipped behind me and I cursed internally. "My brother's been looking for you mate."
I took a step closer to him and set a hand on his chest. "Please don't tell Klaus."
He looked down at my hand and I went to move it hastily only for him to set a hand on mine. "I'm sorry darling. He already. knows."
