Tres, sorry I didn't update for so long, you know life and all... Also, I wasn't sure if it was a gold idea to keep writing this story, but for now I will.
This is about the curse!
Song for chapter: No song was fitting :(
BE A TIGER
chapter 2
things to talk about
Caroline woke up at her place. Which wasn't weird. Her head didn't hurt. That wasn't weird either. And her hand had a number written in the upper hand. Which was weird. Nine digits written in black ink against her skin, the handwriting wasn't hers so someone else wrote them. But who?
She sat up in her bad, still coved in white soft blankets, to evaluate the numbers in her hand. they seemed to be written by a man. Provably of her age by the looks of how irregular all the digits were. Is it a nine or a seven? After seconds staring sebne. The new number created with the fusion of a seven and a nine. Caroline woke up from her Sherlock moment and stated her day, deciding to take a break of watching British shows for a while.
Later that morning, when her routine was at time she stopped to try again, she had to remember what had happened. Nothing got out of control right? Hopefully her vampire side didn't go out and started to eat people alive. And she really wished that her animal side also staid inside. Did a man paid her too much attention yesterday?
Did I turn yesterday?

Klaus, in his own world was astonished. What a girl! Well, woman. She was a vampire, that made you change. Grow. She was fantastic. Lovely and fun as a child, sexy and mature as a grown woman. It was a great mix of qualities. Or you are too lovely, meaning immature. Or you are too much of a prude trying to be mysterious.
Klaus was also very glad Elijah didn't talk to much during the night either.
It helped that Caroline did talk to much. Her way to make fun of both originals and so little time was amusing. "Elijah, dear" she had said with an adorable British accent, "why don't you have a drink with us?" she was back to her natural american accent, she batted her eyelashes and made a puppy face. "Leave your god brother fly solo today. I'll be your drinking mate and I'll help you get a woman. What do you say?" then she had moved her eyebrow hitting Elijah's arm playfully.
Caroline wanted to have fun.
Which is translated as 'let's laugh at the rest of the world'.
Klaus was first worried about that, but it made sense at the end. Was didn't mean wrong to the others either. She could even call herself a devilish Cupido, helping girls to talk to other guys. She had danced with other girls and whispered advices of how to get what they want.
She hadn't danced with any man. That was something that cached his attention. He had though that she could have special preferences but her moves towards other woman weren't sexual. It was even childish how she moved dancing. Caroline was simply trying to help woman be more confident to get what they wanted. It was like a Mother Theresa of sex, we could say. People had problems with the other sex and she tried to help. But Caroline was completely polite. She never said the world 'sex' or other rude words.
Later when she came back to the bar line, besides Klaus. She looked at him. He was already staring so it was normal she found it a bit harsh. "So, what is wrong with you? Is it fun to stare at me?" she had asked.
"You got my attention" he had said.

She had been thinking about calling that number in her hand for at least two hours. Drinking her second glass of iced sweet tea and with The Passage in her hand sitting in her small living room. For one side she couldn't lose much for calling and she finished would get the answer. Who did that number belong too?
Caroline decided to stop worrying and called.
Ring Ring Ring
(pause)
Ring Ring Ring
"Hello?" it was a man. Crap.
"Excuse me, but I found this number in my hands this morning. I was wondering who you are" she tried to be as polite as she could. If she wanted to win him over to get all the information she wanted. Of course, it couldn't be too easy.
"Well. How is your hair, you boobs and your name?"
What?
"You should check the order in your priorities" she joked.
In the other line Caroline heard a laugh. "Yes, I guess I should do that. But I'm a man and that's what man do: think about ugly things"
"I though that boobs were interesting for man"
Caroline waited for the answer.
"Well, seen who you are laughing at me you must be the BVV"
"BVV?"
What is he thinking about?
"'Blond baby vampire'" he said obviously trying to sound as it was a funnier joke.
"That's an awful nickname, or joke. I don't even know what the hell you meant. What the hell was that?"
"A joke..."
After an awkward silence the man in the other side of the line left the conversation for a bit. Caroline heard another voice in the background. But she couldn't make out what that voice was saying. Even with her vampire senses. Soon the man said something like "shut up boring hybrid" and then he came back.
"Let's ignore my joked you can understand, little friend. I'm Kol. We met yesterday at the bar. Remember? I got kicked out but I came back after my brother, Elijah, left. I wrote my number in your hand and then you had to leave"
"Did something weird happened yesterday?"
Silence.
Voices.
Caroline got incredibly nervous. Were they, Kol and however that was there, debating something about her. She did turn. No! Why did that had to happen to her!? She was always careful!
"Well, I don't know" Kol said.
Then another voice took over the other line. It was a male voice with accent very much like Kol's. "Something weird like suddenly changing of form from one second to another? You make a lovely tiger".
Fucking hell.
Please, earth make me disappear.
That wasn't happening.
No. It wasn't.
