"Klaus. What the hell are you doing here?" Stefan sounded so angry, I didn't know why to be honest. I didn't expect Klaus to be here. No one did, well no one did except for Elena. Everyone was surprised but she was the only one who didn't.
"Well, it's nice to see you too, old friend." Klaus said that with his infamous smirk. Man, did that make me smirk myself too. Mocking Stefan's voice he announced, "Well hello, Klaus. Didn't expect to see you here. Hey, how you doing? Can I offer you a drink? Ahh. Those are examples of what you should've said. But no, you want to be rude. Fine then, I'll join the party."
I didn't want to interrupt but what was he talking about? "What party Klaus? And not to be rude, but why are you here? And who gave you an invitation?" That made me curious. How did he even know that we were having a wedding?
"Well, love. It is nice to hear your voice once again. I haven't heard it in 5 years." He looked sad when he said it. I haven't seen Klaus in 7 years though. What was going on? "Oops. I think I said too much. How about we catch up. Come on, love. I don't bite. Well, I won't bite you." His damn smirk! "Well, at least not if you don't want me too." There it was again. That smirk stirred up feelings I didn't even know I had.
"Yeah, why don't you two do that, after the wedding. Caroline, shall we con-," and then his neck was snapped. By the one and only, Klaus Mikaelson.
"Klaus!!" I screamed at him, unintentionally. Oops.
"Sorry, love. But I need to talk to you before you make a decision you will regret." Regret?! What would I regret? Marrying the love of my life?
[Klaus's POV]
Man, did she look she beautiful. I never imagined that Caroline would marry anyone. Well, anyone but me. I will admit, seeing her with another man broke my heart. But it broke even more realizing that she was marrying the man. I felt a little better though. Just seeing her made my mood get better. I remember coming home to her in New Orleans. She was so happy and enthusiastic. I could've been furious and outraged demanding that she shouldn't come near me. But of course, I should've just saved my breath because she's stubborn doesn't listen to anyone. Even at my worst times, a look at her and I was so happy. She was mine. I loved her with all of my heart. I would die a million times over again for her. I would give her the world if I could. We loved each other. We were in love. She loved me so much, but I loved her more than she could ever know, which is exactly why I had to let her go. When all of my enemies and all the people I had done wrong came for me, they threatened the life of anyone and everyone I loved. I knew Caroline wouldn't listen to me and stay out of the fight, let alone stay inside and never come out of the compound. There was only one thing that I could do that would keep her safe, send her away. I knew she wouldn't do it willingly so I compelled her. I compelled her to return back home to Mystic Falls, live her life to the fullest, and to never return to New Orleans. I compelled her one last thing, it nearly destroyed me to do so, but I had to keep her safe. I compelled her to forget that she loved me and to forget all the good I've ever done. To only remember the worst of me and that I could never be loved. It killed me when I compelled her. That was nearly 5 years ago. I defeated every single one of my enemies and anyone who tried to defeat me. Not only so it could be over with and to protect my family, I did it to get the love of my life back.
Only one person, besides my family, knew what was going on between Caroline and I. Elena Gilbert. She helped me with everything. She was the only one who knew about our relationship. She was the only one who understood us. She knew what it was like to date the "bad guy." Everyone used to hate Damon. He was so careless and hateful and mean. Sounds like me. But she loved him anyway. Just like Caroline and I. Bonnie would never understand, so, she was never told. Only Elena. I doubt she told anyone, not even Damon.
Elena was the one who had kept an eye on Caroline for me. She called me and texted me everyday, just to tell me what Caroline was up to or what was going on with her. That's how I figured out about the wedding. I would've had Elena sabotage their relationship when it first began if I had known how much it would evolve and how long I would've been away from her. Now, I could finally get the girl. I could have the love of my life back, god did I miss her. I would have her back in my arms sleeping with me in my bed every night. I missed that. I missed having her warm body next to mine. Her gorgeous blonde, curly locks of hair that smelled like lavender. I missed every single piece of her. The yelling at me when I deserved it, the kissed, the hugs. I missed her laughter and her smile most of all. I still haven't got used to not seeing her everyday. Not seeing her smile or hearing her laugh. Not cuddling up next to her on the couch or sleeping next to her in my bed. I missed every single piece of her, and it was finally the time when I get the love of my life back in my arms again.
