Caroline's POV
I'm looking through my closets to find the proper dress to wear tonight but nothing seems to be good enough. I really don't want to embarrass myself or Klaus. Usually I don't care what people think of me but this is important. My college tuition is on the line here!

I hear a knock at my door and I sigh annoyingly as I walk over to open it.

"Hey Caroline." Elena says to me with a huge smile. She has duffel bag and hangers with black bagd covering it over her shoulder

"Elena? What are you doing here?" I asked her.

"Can I come in first?" She asked and I nod as I make way for her to come in. "Nice apartment. It's cozy." She compliments.

"Thanks but why are you here?" I question her.

"Right... Klaus told me that he invited you to the gala  to be his date so I took the liberty to help you pick out the perfect dress for tonight." She says and I couldn't help but run up to hug her.

"Oh my god thank you. I was literally stressing out to find what to wear." I admit to her.

"No worries Caroline. That's why I'm here to help." She says and I release myself from her. "So I have a few options and once you pick the dress you can pick the shoes to match it." She says and I nod.

Elena passes me some of the dresses and I go into my bed room to change. I pick out one of the dresses and I decided to put on this pink flower dress. It's pretty and I like the decor on it.

As I walk out to see Elena's approval, She eyes me up and down until she gives me a final answer

"It's pretty but I think you could look for another option." She say and I walk back into my bathroom again.

I then come across this beautiful Silky dress. It is really nice and it does show off my curses more but I feel like it's not fit for the gala.

I still go show Elena and she gives me a simple no nod and I go back into the bathroom. There is one more dress for me to try on. As I unzip it out of the bag. I'm at awe. I do love the decor of it and the how lace on the sleeves look. It could but the most beautiful dress I ever seen.

As I try it on. I feel beautiful and it fits me so well. I walk out to show Elena and her eyes go widen. She nod a definite yes to the dress and I am so happy that I get to wear this dress tonight

"You know royal blue is Klaus favorite color." Elena mentions to me.

"So he's gonna like the dress?" I asked her.

"He's going to love it." She says and I smile at her.

It's 8:27 and it's almost time for Klaus to pick me up for the gala. Elena already brought her dress and decided to wait and stay with me until Klaus comes to pick her up. Elena went for a nice lace red dress to the gala and I have to say she looks so hot.

"He's here." Elena announced and we see a huge limo pulling up in front of my apartment complex. Me and Elena both walk up to the limo and we see a tall yet middle age and sophisticated man standing in front of it.

"Good Evening laddies." He says and he has a strong accent. "You both look absolutely stunning tonight." He compliments us.

"Oh Elijah stop with compliments." Elena says with a playful giggle while she blush.

The limo opens up and I see Klaus stepping out with a nice dark blue suite. He looks so handsome tonight. Klaus finally sees me and his eyes go wide. He looks at me with admiration.

"Caroline you look so beautiful in that dress." He finally says and I smile.

"Thank you." I say to him.

"Come on we wouldn't want to be later." Klaus says to me and he reaches out his hand and I take it as he helps me get into the limo first. As a true gentleman he closes it for me and he makes his way to the other side of the limo to sit right next to me.

"Where to?" The limo driver says.

"The Gala." Klaus says never taking his eyes off me and we drive off.
