“That’s your problem right there. You see it as a weakness. That’s all you ever see it as. Why would I ever want to return your feelings when you keep telling me and pretty much everyone that it makes you weak?” Okay, so maybe everyone was an exaggeration, but some days it felt like that. “Love isn’t a weakness. It’s not supposed to be. It’s supposed to be something good, something that helps you in your darkest times and makes all the good times even better.”
And he was right. There was an allure there, to the dangerous line she continuously walked along, never quite sure when she’d step a toe over it and everything would come crashing down. What he could do to her if he ever snapped did scare her though. She remembered how completely Stefan had been controlled by him when he’d been compelled. If Klaus ever really wanted to do that to her, she knew he was right and she’d be helpless to stop him. Caroline didn’t understand why she was so drawn to all of it and why she didn’t listen to her instincts to run like hell the other way. It probably had something to do with moths and flames, but she wasn’t going to look too closely into it.
“And it won’t bring you to your knees. You’d never let it get to that point.”
Which didn’t exactly bode well for her...Stefan was right. She was so very screwed.
