*A View To A Kill*
When I look into your eyes
It’s like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there’s so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you’ve come so far
To be right where you are
“We all want the cure,” Caroline stated, when Klaus made a comment from where he was magically stuck in the living room.
“Do you?” he asked her.
After a moment of pause, she replied, saying, “It doesn’t matter. There’s only one, so I’m not going to get it.”
“You wouldn’t, would you?” he said. “You like being strong, ageless, fearless. You like who you are now, instead of the girl you once were. You and I are alike, Caroline.”
*Dangerous Liaisons*
How old is your soul?
Well, I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up
After Caroline left, Klaus followed her out of the Mystic Grille. He’d taken Kol’s “she sure looks good walking away from you,” as a challenge.
“Caroline!” he said, as a car almost hit him, when he was trying to catch up with her.
When she’d gotten to the park, he caught up with her and she turned around to face him.
“Seriously? Take a hint.”
“You’re angry, luv,” he said, seeing through her just like always. “We had a little spat. I’m over it already.”
“Aww, well I’m not,” she replied.
They sat on the bench after he’d asked her to “take a chance” and “get to know me.”
“So, what do you want to talk about?” she questioned him.
“Well, I want to talk about you. Your hopes, your dreams, what you want in life.”
“I’ve never really been anywhere,” she confessed.
“I’ll take you. Rome, Paris, Tokyo.”
She laughed at the last one and said, “Wow.” Then she went serious and told him, “Just so you know, I’m too smart to be seduced by you.”
He gave a smile. “Well, that’s why I like you.”
*Graduation*
And when you’re needing your space
To do some navigating
I’ll be here waiting
To see what you find
It was a dismal night, as they stood in front of each other. Caroline had just graduated from high school earlier that day and he’d shown up to kill some angry dead witches whom had been giving Caroline and her friends migraines. He’d already been on his way, since he’d received her subtle Graduation announcement.
“I expect you’re wanting cash?” he said.
“That or a mini fridge,” she replied.
“I was prepared to offer you a first class ticket to join me in New Orleans, but I knew what your answer would be, so I gave you something I knew you couldn’t refuse. Tyler will be allowed to come back to Mystic Falls.”
“What?” she questioned, shocked.
“He’s your first love. I intend to be your last. No matter how long it takes,” he explained to her.
*She’s Come Undone*
‘Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We’ve got a lot to learn
God knows we’re worth it
No, I won’t give up
I don’t wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I’m here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you’re still my friend at least we didn’t intend
For us to work we didn’t break, we didn’t burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I’ve got, and what I’m not, and what I am
It was a beautiful day, as they stood in front of each other in the woods, talking. He’d just returned to Mystic Falls for half a day or a day for a visit.
“Come to New Orleans with me,” he offered her. When she told him no in so many words, he said, “The truth is, I’ve tried to stop thinking about you and I can’t. That’s just it. I never had any intentions of moving on. What are you afraid of?”
“You. I’m afraid of you,” she confessed.
*Do Not Go Gentle*
I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up, I’m still looking up
Well I won’t give up on us (No, I’m not giving up)
God knows I’m tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We’ve got a lot to learn (we’re alive, we are loved)
God knows we’re worth it (And we’re worth it)
It was a nebulous night, as Klaus danced with Caroline after stealing her away from Tyler.
“Why do you always have to prove that you’re the alpha male?” Caroline questioned.
“I don’t have to prove anything, luv. I am the alpha male,” he replied. “You should be nicer to me. I’m leaving town tomorrow. I’d ask you to come with me, but we both know you’re not ready to accept my offer. Perhaps one day, in a year or maybe in a century, you’ll turn up at my door and let me show you what the world has to offer.”
She was silent and just scoffed at what he said.
He continued, saying, “Mark my words. Small-town boy, small-town life, it won’t be enough for you.”
*500 Years of Solitude*
I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up
It was a beautiful day, as they stood in the woods.
“I want your confession,” he told her.
“My confession. I didn’t do anything. Confession about what?”
“Me. As soon as we’re done here, I’m gonna walk away and I’m never coming back. You’ll never again have to look me in the eye and cover up our connection with hostility and revulsion. You’ll never have to loathe the darkest parts of yourself that care for me inspite of what I’ve done. I will be gone and you will be free. I just want you to be honest with me.”
“I’m in college. I’m building a life for myself. I have plans and a future and things that I want. And none of those things involve you, okay? None of them,” she informed him.
“I see.”
“No, you don’t because yes, I cover our connection with hostility, because yes, I hate myself for the truth. So if you promise to walk away and never come back like you said, then I will be honest with you. I will be honest with you about what I want.”
“I will walk away and never come back,” he promised her.
“Good,” she said, just inches in front of him.
A moment later, she kissed him.
He smiled and kissed back. Then he blurred them to a tree and he now was against it, as they kissed.
