Best Friends

29.

*New Orleans, 2015*

Caroline's POV

After take a shower and changed clothes, I went to the kitchen and Rebekah looked at me and gasped.

"Oh my god! You had sex. With who?"

"What? Why do you think I had sex?" I asked.

"Because you are with the look of someone who had amazing sex." She said excited. "Tell me everything. Who's the guy? How did you meet? It was a one night thing? All details, leave nothing out."

"Bekah, I need to wake up first." I said and took a blood bag B+.

"Fine, but later I want to know everything." She said and walked away.

I was drinking my blood when suddenly I felt Klaus's strong arms around me and he started to kiss my neck.

"Nik, someone can appear." I whispered.

"So...?"

"So if they find us they will make us a bunch of questions that I don't know the answer to." I told him.

"Good morning, lovebirds!" Kol said, making me get out of Klaus's embrace.

"Morning" Klaus said.

"Good morning, Kol!" I said and he smirked.

"So, how crazy was your sex last night?" Kol asked with a smirk.

"Wh-what are you talking about?" I asked.

"Came on! You both come home in the morning together and have the look of I just have wild sex. Why don't you just tell everyone that you guys are a thing? Everyone sees you like each other."

"Kol, just let us be." I said and he shrugged and walked away.

"Maybe Kol is right." He said.

"Can we keep it in secret for just a few days?" I asked because I was afraid of getting hurt again.

"Of course, love." He said and I kissed him.

"Oh My God!" We heard Rebekah, making us break the kiss and look at her.

"Hey, Bekah! So do you remember the guy I had sex with last night...?"

"You and Nik are together? Thank God! I'm so happy for you..." she said and hugged us. "This is so awesome! We can double date and do couple game nights."

"Bekah we are not a couple." I said.

"You guys had sex and kiss the morning after. What do you mean you aren't a couple?"

"We don't know exactly what this is. We didn't label it." Klaus said and I nodded.

"What? That's crazy! You two like each other, just be together. It's really not that hard." Rebekah said.

"Good morning, beautiful!" Stefan said while walking in and kissed Rebekah.

"Stef, guess what. Caroline and Klaus had sex last night and are now kissing but they don't want to talk about it or label what they have."

"Wow! It took you a long time to finally be together." Stefan said to us.

"That's not the point, Stefan. They are having sex and kissing but they are not a couple because they are avoiding the talk and the talk is really important."

"I'm sure they will eventually have the talk." Stefan said.

"Why can't you just be happy for us being happy."

"You're not happy, you just think you're happy." Rebekah said. "You will only be happy after the talk."

"Whatever. I'm gonna take a walk. Bye." I said and walked over to the streets of New Orleans and think about Klaus and how is going to be from now on.

Klaus's POV

Great! Now Bekah scared her away...

"Can't you let us be?"

"Not when you guys are about to hurt yourselves. You just need to have the talk and then you can have as much sex as you want." She said and then added. "And I just throw up inside."

"We know how to take care of ourselves."

"Not when it comes to feelings. You're both afraid of getting rejected that never try to be 100% in a relationship."

"What are you talking about. I had girlfriends and Caroline dated some guys, and we all thought that she and Tyler would be together forever."

"Just you thought that. Caroline never was 100% committed to their relationship. Specially because of you, because she knew you didn't like him and she has that in concerned, she always had." Rebekah said "I just want you two to clear what you have so no one would end up hurt, okay?"

"Okay." I said and left, searching for Caroline.

I found her in the middle of the street, admiring the paintings.

"Caroline" I called her, making her turn to see me.

"Hey!" She said with a small smile.

"I'm sorry for my sister. You know that she can be a little..."

"It's okay. She was just worried about us." Caroline cut me off, then with a serious face she asked me. "Do you think she's right? Do you think that if we avoid the talk, we are going to hurt ourselves?"

"I don't know, love. I'm not really expert in relationships and stuff like that." I said and she smiled.

"Well, maybe we can come up with a solution. We can be together when we feel like it and..."

"And we can't be with nobody else." I said because I was done of seeing her with some guys who are not worthy of her.

"Alright. And if we end this, we will continue friends."

"Of course, love." I said making her smile then asked "Can we be official? Be in public?"

"I would like that." She said and I kissed her passionately.
