Third Person POV-

As they enter the city Caroline is taken by it. Everything held its own beauty. Caroline rolls the window down and sticks her head out, taking in the smells of the city. She never wants this feeling to stop. She is a long way from Mystic falls and she loves it. Klaus takes in his sunshine as her eyes wander in amazement. He is happy for the first time in a long time. He has never felt this way about anyone before and it scares the hell out of him. After his smile fades thinking of their uncertain future Caroline turns to glance at him. She grabs his hand and brings it up to her lips, as they brush over his skin. It's sends a shiver down his spine. She layers a soft kiss upon it and smiles.

Their moment is loss, when her phone rings. Caroline looks down at the ID and sees Bonnie's name.

"Bonnie." She answers.

"Caroline, how are you. I...I" Bonnie hesitates

Caroline looks over at her wolf and grins "Perfect." she says softly in to the phone. Bonnie sighs in relief as she answers. Missing her friend so much and regretting the past couple of months that have shaped their lives. "Well, you will call me when you get situated, Right."

"I promise, how are you?" Caroline asks.

Feeling Bonnie's emptiness on the phone. "Good, better now that I have spoken to you" She answers. After minutes of catching up, they pull up to the mansion.

Caroline's mouth drops "Bonnie can I call you back." She mumbles. As she hangs the phone up, turning to Klaus as he shuts off the car. "This is where we are staying, right in the heart of the french quarter?"

"If you don't like it we have a more private estate outside of the city." Klaus smirks.

"No, this is...breathtaking." She answers.

Moving inside of the house, Elijah greets them. "Niklaus, Caroline glad you have finally joined us." He says.

Klaus smiles and then wonders, catching that his brother said us. "Who is us?" He asks.

Caroline stops looking around the room and focuses back to the center, where Elijah is standing. Before he can answer Klaus's question she walks in to the room. Caroline swallows as she looks upon the brunette. "What is the meaning of this Elijah, why is she here?" He demands.

Caroline looks her up and down. She stops on Hayley's belly, not fully showing yet but Caroline knows what lives within. A baby, Klaus' baby and Caroline has to turn away. Hayley glances over at her, guilt sinking in. She loves Tyler and when he finds out that she told the witches about Caroline. He may never speak to her again.

"I have to speak to you about the baby." Hayley says.

Klaus turns towards Caroline who is looking at the floor. He is gonna kill Elijah for this, he knew he would have to deal with Hayley. But today he wants it to be him and Caroline, get her adjusted to the city. Caroline feels him looking at her but she can't bring herself to meet his eyes. She stares at the elephant in the room, Hayley. It kills her that she can give Klaus all the love he needs, but not the family he craves. That is what stings her the most. Fuels her hatred for Hayley.

Elijah walks over to her and hands her a drink, Caroline looks at him and Klaus and walks out of the room. Leaving him standing there, he then walks over to Klaus and hands the drink to him. Klaus takes the drink and slams it on the floor. "How dare you!" He seethes at Elijah.

"Instead of jumping to conclusions, you might want to hear her out." Elijah shoots back.

Klaus rushes over to Hayley causing her to step back "After you tell me this, whatever it is. You never come back here. Do you understand?!" He demands. Hayley slowly nods her head.

"Talk!!" Klaus yells. As he glances towards the balcony where Caroline stands. He knows seeing Hayley has thrown her for a loop and he can only imagine what she is thinking. Caroline reminds him so much of Rebekah in this regard. Vampires who suffer greatly from the knowledge of knowing they can never bear children. Hayley walks away from his wrath and takes a seat. Turning to look up and him and Elijah.

"When I came down here, the witches knew that I was looking for something. They questioned me on where I had been, who I knew. When your name came up their interest perked and..."

"Get on with it." Klaus says with a clenched jaw.

Hayley shaken by his outburst not knowing how he is gonna take the news. "Fine, It was planned for me to come back to Mystic Falls and seduce you or whatever." She stops when Klaus inches closer feeling the heat radiate off of him. She tenses "There is no baby..." she mumbles.

"What did you say?" Klaus says too calm for comfort.

Hayley stands up and tells him to listen, block everything else out. "There is no baby, they wanted you down here to help them with Marcel." Before Hayley can finish she is up against the wall. Klaus gripping her throat, blood rushing to her eyeballs. Elijah is yelling for Klaus to let her finish.

Nothing can stop him, he is taken over by his anger at the witches and her. All he can think about is the damage it could have caused between him and Caroline. What he could have lost because of this stupid wolf. How dare she deceive him and think she can live. As he is staring at Hayley, he stiffens as he feels her close. "Klaus...please...Klaus." Caroline begs.

He turns and releases Hayley, looking at Caroline who is holding his hand gently. Hayley and Elijah look on at the scene in disbelief. "Caroline..." He stumbles at his words. Afraid of the monster he has shown her, the one that has done all the bad things. The monster that she told him she tries to forget, he never wants her to see him. Here standing in this room, he could feel him reappearing. Caroline keeps a hold on his hand and stares at him. Klaus looking back at her intensely.

"Hayley...finish telling him what you want him to know." Caroline says never breaking her stare from Klaus. Hayley looks at Elijah who is quiet and nods his head at her. "Whatever Marcel holds over them, they want it back at any cost. They promised me information on my family. After you found out about me and reacted the way you did. They did not understand." Hayley took a break waiting for a response as she looks at Klaus and Caroline. She wonders if they heard anything she just said, as they are staring at one another.

"Is that it, is that the only role you had to play." Caroline speaks

"They asked me who was important enough to get his attention, I'm sorry Caroline. I gave them your name. I had to help the witch, if not she was going to kill me." Hayley stands there fearing for her life.

"Why worry about the witches killing you when I will." Klaus says finally getting over his anger enough to hear her out. Klaus drops Caroline's hand and walks over to Hayley. He breathes down on her "You will thank Caroline for your life being spared, you will help us and if you don't. So help me I will kill you and every living relative you have. I will take what you want the most." Hayley quickly nods and reaches over to grab her bag.

She walks towards the door "Caro..." before she can finish Klaus is standing in front of her.

"You never speak her name, or speak to her. That apology comes in the form of you helping us. How I will let you know. Go before I change my mind." Hayley speeds out of the door. Elijah nods at Klaus understanding what his brother wants done and goes with Hayley.

Klaus rushes over to Caroline and slams his lips against hers. "Sweetheart." He whispers.

Caroline moans and falls into his body. "She's not pregnant" Caroline smirks against his neck.

He pulls away to look at her alluring face. He loves the smile he sees but slowly it fades.

"Caroline what is it..." He asks.

"I'm sorry...that you will not be ..." Before she can finish his finger is upon her lips.

"Don't because if their is a loophole you are the only one fit to have my child. No one else but you." He says pulling her closer. "You drag me from the darkness that clouds my soul, only you." Caroline lays her head against his chest and kisses him over his heart. Klaus lays his head over hers.

"I called Bonnie back and told her about what was in the box." She says.

Klaus pulls her chin and caresses her face. "Whatever it is we will get through it, just like whatever the witches are planning and Marcel." he answers. Klaus takes her hand and leads her out onto the balcony. Caroline walks to the edge and looks out at all the sights and sounds. She feels him behind her, he holds her tight. As if she will fly away. Caroline lays her head back against his chest. "I hope you fully understand what we are walking in to Caroline. I don't want you to ever regret choosing me." Caroline turns in his arms wrapping hers tightly around his neck.

"Klaus, I know who you are and what you are capable of. I saw your face when you realized I was the one holding your hand. Shame and regret is what I saw." Klaus turns from her and she pecks a light kiss to his cheek. "Look at me." She whispers. He turns back.

"We may not always agree but I am here. I want all of you, you accepted me for who I was. You are the first person to do that, not even my friends accepted me at first. I will never make you feel ashamed of who you are. When you told me to love you, that's what I intend to do my wolf." Caroline hugs him tight. Klaus starts to kiss her moving them back inside.

"You surprise me everyday, Caroline. I can't wait to see what else you have in store for me, love." He smirks not being able to keep his hands off of her.

Caroline wiggles away from him,
laughing she turns back. "Show me New Orléans." Klaus shakes his head and walks towards his sunshine.

************************************

Sophie takes Caroline's bracelet and grips it tight, drawing all the energy she can from it. The rest of the witches looking on in suspense. She drops the bracelet. Looking around to the other witches. "Somethings off, go and find that werewolf!" She orders. As a couple of the witches leave on their quest to find Hayley. Sophie turns to the rest.

"If she has lied, I will kill her!!" She yells.

Lydia turns to look at her "Where would that leave us. We would have no leverage against the original hybrid. I will go and seek Marie maybe she can read something."

Sophie nods in agreement. "Okay."

Just want to say yay yay the bitch is gone!!!!
