IDK why I'm writing this like a letter, but it feels right. And silly. But still right.
My love, you are overthinking and that's okay, because it's a big thing and it's normal to overthink big things. What I think is that Caroline is your friend and if you want to go to her party, fuck everyone else and go to her party. Elena will play nice for the occasion (which, if I have to ask her to do it myself, I will) and Klaus-
Klaus.
Klaus is an enormous fucking manchild having a temper tantrum and, for the sake of deflating his ego a bit, needs to see that you- you specifically- can love him and not give a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut about what he thinks at the same time. He's under the delusion that family is what he decides it is, and that's just not the case.
So yeah. We're definitely going, because I need some face time with my favorite blonds.
Beautiful, you can get hooked on the most expensive coffee in the world and make it absolutely adorable.
