A Persistent Lover

Dates and Pranks

Caroline blushed deeply.

Is that a threat?

The best kind...

Elijah turned to Rebekah. "We might want to reconsider joining them on their next trip."

That snapped Klaus out from Caroline's hypotonic eyes. "Excuse me?"

"Klaus, I thought it'd be nice if Rebekah and Elijah joined is for just a little bit when we go. I mean, we are going to have to leave and Rebekah and Elijah both have decided that they don't want to remain in Mystic Falls any longer," Caroline said trying to help Elijah out.

"This town is boring, I want out!" pouted Rebekah. "Nik, please. Think of it, it'd be fun, just us and Caroline in some exotic city! Elijah and I promise that we will leave afterwards so you and Caroline can...you know..."

Elijah cleared his throat. "Brother, Caroline did invite us, but I will do fine going off on my own of that will suit everyone better. I don't believe I can stay here any longer either."

Klaus threw up his hands. "If Caroline wants it, then it's fine. But no more than a month."

Rebekah gaped. "A month?"

"Take it or leave it, sweetheart. Now, where is the special location you wish to go to, Caroline?"

"Well, you did once tell me that you would take me to Rome, right?"

Klaus smiled at the memory. "Yes, I did. Elijah, of course, loves Rome so he would have no objection. And Rebekah love? Will you not be cooperative?"

"Bekah, please?" Caroline pleaded.

Rebkah rolled her eyes. "Whatever, I'm going to get my hair done," she said before walking out of the room.

"She's awesome," stated Caroline.

The next day found Kol turning into an OCD maniac. He straightened out every paper in the house, cleaned the kitchen table over three times, and was now picking up crumbs from the floor.

"Kol, calm down. Bonnie isn't going to care how the house looks." Caroline said from her posed position on the couch. Klaus sat across from her, drawing in the shadows of her hair.

"Well, I do. This has to be perfect, Caroline! I cannot screw this up."

"You won't. You're brothers with Klaus, aren't you? It'll be perfect!"

Klaus smirked at that.

The doorbell rang and Kol shot up like a bullet.

"Here I go! Wish me luck, brother, Caroline!"

As he walked towards the front entrance, Caroline shot up and grabbed Klaus.

Klaus sputtered. "I'm drawing you, you imp!"

"You can draw upstairs! Come on, Kol has a date!"

Kol placed two large bowls containing kettle corn and chocolate covered pretzels on the counter. Bonnie stopped taping her foot, looking at the food in surprise.

"How'd you know these were my favorite foods?"

Kol cleared his throat. "Well, I spoke to Caroline and she gave me a few insiders into the life of Bonnie Bennett. But don't worry, she did not tell me anything too secretive," he winked and sat down across from her.

At that moment, the lady of discussion came walking lightly into the room. She saw the food and in a flash, grabbed a handful of pretzels.

"Hey! That's Bonnie's, thief!" Kol chided, grabbing the bowl and pulling it away.
