Want Vs Need @ FF.net
Summary: When it comes to Klaus, the line between what Caroline wants and what she needs gets a little blurred (one-shot, set during S4).
“I take it you’re not having a good time then?” Klaus replied with a hint of amusement.
“In a word, no.” Finding no other reason to fiddle with her shoe, Caroline sat up straight and acknowledged him, her eyes flickering briefly over his body. The asshole definitely knew how to wear a suit and tie. “What are you even doing here anyway? Are you planning on gate crashing every dance this school holds?”
He smiled at her, unaffected by her tone. “Only the ones you attend, sweetheart.”
“Real cute.” She crossed her legs, and folded her arms for good measure. “Look, I don’t really have time for your ‘let’s lay on the charming dimples and accent’ thing, so why don’t you just call it a night and go home?”
“So you do think I’m charming?” he smirked.
Caroline rolled her eyes. “You’re really big on selective hearing, aren’t you?”
“No, I hear everything,” said Klaus. “Like about your pathetic little boyfriend going AWOL for instance.”
“Don’t act like this was firsthand news to you,” she bitterly replied.
“It wasn’t,” he admitted. “But your take on the whole situation is.” A lazy smile crossed his features. “I can help you to forget all about him. Just say the word.”

I've read my share of Klaroline fics and Dreaming With A Broken Heart is probably the best. So often people will write the characters unrealistically, but you've kept them true to their personalities. I've had to stop reading a couple times because it's so perfect and I felt as if I was reading the script from a new episode. Good job!

This is one of the loveliest messages I’ve ever received on here! Thanks so much. DWABH is my first leap into Vampire Diaries fic territory, and I was a little bit worried about making everyone sound OK, so your comments are really encouraging. Klaroline have kind of taken over my life lately (understatement of the year) so this fic has been a nice outlet for me while the wait for S4 drags on! Again, thanks heaps for the message :)

Dreaming With A Broken HeartChapter Nine @FF.net 
Summary: Caroline’s elated when ‘Tyler’ returns to town. So why can’t she stop dreaming about a certain other hybrid? Post 3x22 fic.
How do I turn the kaleidoscope off? Caroline vaguely thought as her head span. I feel like I’m trapped inside a cracked-out rainbow. She could hear anxious voices echo nearby as swirls of patterns and bright colors continued to taunt her. Cautiously, she let her eyes flutter open, hoping her distorted vision would soon return to normal.
“Wait, she’s coming to,” said Bonnie.
“Caroline?” asked Tyler. “Can you hear us? Caroline?”
“I think people in the next state can hear you,” said Damon.
“Everyone just needs to sit back and give her some space,” Stefan instructed. “The last thing she needs is to be overwhelmed.”
“Little too late for that,” Caroline managed to utter, trying to blink everything into focus. She was reclining on a cushy sofa with a throw pillow resting under her head. A lamp in one corner projected a dim light across the room, for which Caroline and her dizziness were grateful for. She could make out two hazy-looking people kneeling next to her, and two more standing behind them. Then there was a lone figure in the background cast in shadows. Lifting her hand to rub her eyes, the images around her became clearer and Caroline got a better picture of whom the dark presence was.
Klaus or Tyler, though… she thought in brief confusion. Klaus, Tyler, Klaus, Tyler.

“Did you get your drink, love?”
Caroline turned to see Klaus, hands in pockets, approaching her carefully as if she might disappear again. She fixed him with a neutral look, waving her empty champagne flute in front of him. “At least you’re serving the top shelf stuff,” she recited from memory. “Wouldn’t want the night to be a complete waste.”
He chuckled, unfazed by her brashness. “What would be a waste, Caroline, is if you didn’t join me for the first dance.”
“I’m not really in the mood,” she replied, turning her back to him. But Klaus just swooped in front of her, undeterred.
“It would be a shame to be the only host without a dance partner,” he prodded.
“Stefan’s looking lonely,” she retorted. “Why don’t you ask him?”
“He wouldn’t be half as lovely on my arm,” Klaus smiled, glancing towards the sullen Salvatore. “And besides, I think Mayor Lockwood’s already secured him as a date.” Klaus extended his hand towards Caroline. “Come on, just one dance. Where’s the harm in that?”

Blood trickled down the young girl’s neck, soaking into her brunette hair, as she choked back fearful sobs. The desperation radiating off her, combined with the fact that she’d been compelled not to scream, only made Klaus grasp her body tighter.
“Why are you doing this?” she whimpered, as his fangs sank deeper into her skin. “We go to school together.” She struggled uselessly in his hold, her crying becoming more distressed. “Please don’t kill me.”
Lifting his head, Klaus smirked against the side of her face, smearing blood across his victim’s cheek. “Now where’s the fun in that, love?” He was about to rip into her throat when he heard two familiar voices coming from the storage room inside the Grill. Klaus let the girl’s body unceremoniously fall to the ground of the alleyway behind the building, moving closer to watch through a window.

She was mad at Bonnie for keeping the spell a secret, but even more furious at Klaus for intruding his way into her life in such an intimate manner. I confided in him, I took care of him. Her stomach knotted. I kissed him. Moments flickered through her mind of the time she’d spent with ‘Tyler’, like some sort of twisted movie montage, before remembering how their intimate encounter in the tomb came to an end.

Klaus memorized the last moment of warmth directed his way from her, feeling the clock ticking down in his mind until the inevitable. Ten, nine, eight… ”Whatever happens today, just know that I never intended to hurt you, Caroline,” he said, his voice thick. Seven, six, five…
Caroline’s face fell slightly. “Why are you talking like that? What’s happening today?”
He shook his head. “I’m sorry.” … Four, three, two, one.

Rain softly hit Caroline’s bedroom window while she slept, the rhythmic pitter-patter having lulled her into an elusive slumber. Klaus watched her from the doorway, eyes skimming over her face where he was curious to see frown lines etched across her forehead. He assumed her meeting with ‘Tyler’ would have put her thoughts at ease, but it didn’t seem to be the case.
He knew he was being senseless, loitering around when he had desired to reclaim his own body for so long. But that was just the thing about desire – it was impossible to maintain focus on just one when there were so many temptations in the world. Klaus had wanted to see Caroline one last time in his current state before their old routine was enabled and her looks of acceptance were returned to thinly veiled contempt.

She wrung her hands together, turning her head to see that Klaus was staring intently. He reached out to put his hand over hers, but Caroline quickly dropped them away. “I don’t know why I’m telling you this,” she disparaged. “This whole thing isn’t even real, none of it matters.”
Klaus’s gaze never faltered. “It matters to me.”

Klaus’s gaze never faltered. “It matters to me.”


He noticed her peering up at the night sky. “Hoping to make a wish?”
“Wishes belong in fairy tales,” she muttered darkly. “Not my crap-heap of a life.”
“It’s your dream, Caroline, you can do anything you like.”
“And here I am spending it with you.” She shook her head. “Well done, Caroline, another awesome life choice right there.”
Klaus contemplated her. “Why is it you conjure my company when I’m sure there are others you deem more worthy of your time?”
She finally met his gaze. “Because it hurts too much.” Caroline lay back on the cool tiles, hugging her arms to her chest. “I can’t dream up happy scenarios with people I care about when the reality is too harsh to face.”
“So you have a non-entity like me instead.” A flicker of hurt passed through Klaus’s eyes, before his cool demeanour returned. “Why even have me here at all?”
Caroline felt a tear slip down her cheek. “It’s either that or be alone,” she whispered, hating the sympathy she saw etched on his features.
Klaus started to reach out his hand to brush away her tear before thinking better of it, dropping his arm to his side. “I know all too well what that’s like,” he replied in a husky voice.
