——————————————

After finishing her breakfast, Caroline went to take a shower. Klaus was still trying to wrap his head around everything. He was going to be a father to three kids; never in his thousand years did he think that he would come across a day like this. It was hard to take in but he couldn't ignore everything. One thing he was sure of was that Rebekah would never pull a thing kind of thing against him. When she spoke to him, her eyes shone honesty. Usually, it was Rebekah who could tell if someone was lying but he was the only one who could tell if she was lying. It was the thousand years they spent together.

Klaus came into the living room and sat down on the couch. He pulled the album towards him and opened it. He had a strange feeling as he looked through the sketches. Everyone looked so happy and content. There was even one of Esther, Mikael and Henrik. He flipped through the pages and found one of him and Caroline. They looked so happy together. He went on and found one of Henrik playing with the twins. He couldn't help it but smile to Henrik's playful smile as he looked at the babies. Klaus wished he could remember. Even though the method of getting his memories back appealed to him more than ever, he was not known for his patience. However, he couldn't hurt Caroline. He had to figure out another way. He placed the album on the table in front of him and looked into the bag. He pulled out a carved portrait. It was of Caroline and Henrik laughing and cheering. He wished he could remember the tiniest memories that went with this portrait. He heard the door open and close so he placed the carved portrait back into the bag. Rebekah and Stefan walked in with the babies.

"Nik, you're still here," Rebekah said.

"Yes, like I said I would be," he replied. Rebekah came and sat down in front of him with one of the twins. It was strange watching Rebekah with babies.

"Where's Caroline?" she asked.

"Gone to take a shower," Klaus said. Rebekah took a bottle from her bag and started feeding the baby. Stefan did the same with the other. Klaus looked at Stefan feed the baby. He desperately wanted to ask him what it was like to be a father. He seemed to be doing pretty well. But then he decided not to with Rebekah there.

Caroline walked in. She was wearing jeans and a top that fit tightly around the bust area and then flowed out.

"Hey you guys are back!" Caroline said as she walked towards them. "How are my two angels doing?"

"Just fine, we're just feeding them and then it will be nap time," Rebekah said. Caroline smiled as she admired the infants.

"Can I hold her?" Caroline asked after Arianna was fed and burped.

"Sure, here. I sure she'll dose off soon," Rebekah said. Caroline took Arianna from her hands a held her close to her.

"I'm going to call her Care Bear!" Caroline announced. Stefan laughed and Rebekah smiled. Caroline came and sat down beside Klaus. Klaus closely looked at the child. She had Stefan's hair and of course, Rebekah's eyes. She had also inherited Rebekah's cheeks and Stefan's nose. She was the perfect combination.

"What about Aden?" Rebekah said.

"He'll be my Kola Bear!" Caroline said. Rebekah laughed.

"I wonder what Kol would think about that!" Rebekah said. Klaus continued to look at Arianna.

"Do you want to hold her?" Caroline asked.

"I don't think that's a good idea," Klaus said.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine," she encouraged him.
