It was a dark night in Mystic Falls, Virginia as Klaus Mikaelson and Caroline Forbes stood in front of each other in the middle of the football field. She and her friends had just graduated from Mystic High today and Klaus had just saved her and her friends from twelve dead, angry witches. The dead were all gone now though, so that was a relief for her.367Please respect copyright.PENANASJAfWZ3RKT
"How'd you get here so fast?" She asked him.367Please respect copyright.PENANAYJg7NzhuqC
"Well, I was already on my way. I received your graduation announcement. Very subtle. I was prepared to offer you a first class ticket to join me in New Orleans."367Please respect copyright.PENANALAUeGA9bId
"What?" She said, amazed that he'd want her anywhere near him, though it made sense to her in some form. She wasn't stupid nor naive. She knew he was in love with her. She had known for a while now.367Please respect copyright.PENANAW0jhIO0lnY
"I knew what your answer would be, so I'm going to give you something I know you can't refuse," he continued.367Please respect copyright.PENANAJUdPkxTaoR
"I'd go anywhere with you," she replied, figuring it was worth a shot. All her life, she had never been anywhere outside Mystic Falls, nor had she ever been the first choice when it came to guys. For once in her life, a guy was choosing her first. She knew she couldn't pass this up. If she did, she'd go to college with her friends and get everything she wanted, except for the chance to be the first choice for a guy. Then she'd regret it. 367Please respect copyright.PENANAIUEYDpzkBN
When she spoke those five words, she was rewarded with a smile from him.367Please respect copyright.PENANAH6XprnDJl2
"Then let's get out of here before twelve angry hybrids decide to pick a fight," he replied, before adding, "You don't know how long I've been waiting for you to take a chance with me."367Please respect copyright.PENANAyM6npfxfYb
She gave him a smile and they walked away together and soon headed to New Orleans; the city that never sleeps.367Please respect copyright.PENANAhAYHPpZwPp

The next day, when they arrived in New Orleans, Caroline was amazed by it. It was beautiful. Klaus was right that she would enjoy her stay in New Orleans, because she was happy and already loved the French Quarter. It had shops, stores, and other things for her to enjoy but most of all, It was filled with music, culture, and beauty. She couldn't believe Klaus had ever left New Orleans. She wouldn't ask why, though. It felt like It was a personal reason and she didn't like to press him on anything. One too many times already, she had found herself near death which made her fear him. When he wasn't angry though, he was sweet and charming to her and she loved that. That's what she liked about him. She wasn't completely in love with Klaus, but there were a few reasons why she liked him. And she wasn't stupid. She knew to be careful not to upset him too much. She also knew that without trying to, she had changed him just a little. She had shown and taught the fearless 1,000 year old hybrid how to forgive, show mercy, show compassion, and how to love and protect someone he cares deeply about. And it was very faint, but she knew without a doubt that she had awakened some of his humanity; something she doubted anyone had done within 1,000 years. She was his first true love after 1,000 years. Maybe, she figured, just maybe, she could learn to love the feared hybrid.367Please respect copyright.PENANAXAiA6Pq662

A few months later, Caroline had fallen for Klaus and they soon became a couple. They finally got their happy ending.
