Kaya was going through Klaus' draws and the whole house to find the arrowhead.

"Found anything you need." Klaus asked casually relaxed.

"Not yet." Kaya said.

"Let me know when you do."

Kaya groaned in annoyance before walking out.

"Damn you, Klaus." Kaya yelled in the woods.

Someone pops out the bushes and Kaya doesn't say anything as she continued walking.

"Uriah daughter of Aero."

Kaya stopped in her tracks and hesitantly turned to him,"who are you?"

"Someone who can be of great help to you. My name is Silas."

"Silas?" Kaya said in realization,"everyone is looking for you."

"I'm aware." Silas said watching Kaya.

"Did Derek sent you?"

"Derek?" Silas frowned as he looked around suspiciously,"You've been in contact with him."

"What do you want?"

"I'm willing to tell you everything you need to know. But I want something in return. Just a slight favour."

"And what's that?"

"Your friends, have something I need. The cure for vampirism."

Caroline enters the room, wiping her hands on a towel.

"I used all your bleach." Caroline said.

She starts to walk past Klaus but he reaches out and grabs her arm. She turns to him.

"Hey. Thank you for helping me."

"Yeah." She pauses awkwardly,"Well, if you need anything else...don't call me. I have a prom to plan." She turns and walks away.

Klaus smiled,"Friends, then?"

Caroline pauses, then turns back round,"Are you gonna let Tyler come back into town?"

Klaus' face falls and he doesn't say anything. Caroline shakes her head slightly, then turns away.

"You might have noticed..."

Caroline faces him again.

"I'm not exactly scouring the earth for him, am I?"

Caroline smiles, then finally leaves the room. Klaus smiles as well.

Kaya was sitting on the stairs when she heard their conversation.

"Are you going to come out anytime soon, love?" Klaus said.

Kaya looked down not paying attention to his calling.

"Jealous?"

"Not all. Cause if I'm no longer around, there is no one I'd rather you be with than Caroline. She brings out the kinder side to you."

"Am I not kind enough to you?" Klaus said grabbing her waist and lulling her towards him.

"You talk big Klaus but I know I don't have your heart. I always thought it was gratitude you felt towards me all these years but certainly not your heart."
