want you to hold me now - for the wip meme! :)
So this fic is where Klaus and Caroline are in college (I haven’t figured out the specifics besides they have an age difference and they’re broke) and they meet in a cafe so basically a coffee shop and all-humans au and I’m having the time of my life with it. Thank you for asking. Here’s a snippet:
He’s back only a week later.
Her breath stutters, her heart clenches and there’s a brief second where her fingers sweat - it’s all totally cliche she is aware of the fact, but does her body understands that? No.
She straightens her back and heads to his table - and it’s only because his is the only one left unattended, do not think otherwise - contending herself with spending those small seconds taking small peaks at the silent man.
Of course, he absolutely blows her expectations out the window when he tells her, “good morning.”
A British accent, just what she needed.
It’s a strain to smile when all she wants to do is something frankly embarrassing - like squealing - but she manages it.
Someone give her a fucking raise.
“Hello,” she replies. “What can I get you?”
The conversation that follows isn’t long but it is more she imagined they’d ever share.
And when she returns to her shared flat, feet feeling dead after an exhausting day, she thinks of him and his eyes.
Send me an ask about my wips!!
