Meant to be (pt.3) | cl16

Summary: where you dream about a life with a guy you don't know yet.

Warning: fluff, soulmates!au, interlinked dreams.

Part 1, part 2

Things with Charles couldn't be more special than they already were, it's like you two are connected all the time and it really is something very incredible. He is quite an angel, well, at least for you, of course.

So one night, specifically at midnight, you wake up with a start, your heart is pounding and you're thirsting like crazy, you've just had the dream again, the one you had before meeting Charles... But this time, it was different... Because, instead of living in Monaco as usual, you were living in a beautiful house in Napa Valley, California...

-

The sun was shining through the floor to ceiling windows, and the air was filled with the scent of freshly baked bread, Charles was asleep on the couch, he was shirtless and his face was so peaceful, while Luna and Leo slept at his feet... And the feeling of warmth and contentment was overwhelming, but good. You sat down on the couch next to him and he shifted a little to place his head on your lap and he opened his eyes a little bit.

He smiles sleepily. “Oh, hi there douceur!” (sweetness)

You smile at him. “Hi there baby!” you caressed his hair while sighing. “It's so calm here isn't it?”

He nodded. “Yeah, it’s so peaceful here!” he closes his eyes again. “I love being here with you... And our fur babies, of course.” he giggled softly and you just smiled at him.

You just sighed contently as you stroke his silky and soft hair, you enjoy the breeze coming through the floor to ceiling windows and the sweet smell of grapes from the vineyard and you just love the warm and comforting feeling this place has... Your very own cozy home in the Californian countryside. Just then, both Leo and Luna began to play around with each other in the living room and by the fireplace, and that's when you realize that you're where you two should always have been...

-

You sat on the bed for a moment, trying to shake off the feeling of the dream. It felt so real, so incredibly real. You were convinced you could almost smell the grapes and feel the warmth of the sun on your skin... Suddenly, you feel super thirsty once again and you get out of bed and walk to the kitchen to get a glass of water, as you're pouring the water, you hear the floorboards creak behind you...

“Can't sleep, babe?” Charles' asked sleepily.

You turned around. “No, I just woke up with a start...” you sighed. “I had such a strange dream...”

Charles walks towards you. “A dream about Napa Valley?” he asked softly. “Am I right?” he giggled softly.

“How... How did you know?” you say surprised.

He smiles. “Well, I've been having them too... And lately, they've been getting more and more vivid.” he looks at you. “It's so crazy, I know.”

You take a sip of water. “It was so real Charlie, I swear... We were living in a house in the countryside, with vineyards all around. The sun was shining, and we were so happy.” you smiled shyly.

He pulled you close. “I know exactly what you mean amour... Last night I dreamed of us having a picnic in the vineyard, surrounded by wildflowers while Luna and Leo were running around, chasing butterflies.” he smiles too.

“It was perfect...” you smiled.

He kisses your forehead. “Maybe it's a sign...” he whispers softly.

“A sign of what?” you look into his eyes.

Charles takes your hand. “A sign that we're meant for something more... Something bigger than just this apartment in Monaco and F1 races.”

“You... You think we should move to Napa?” you asked hesitantly. “Are you sure?”

He nodded and smile. “I know it's far from here, but I've been thinking about it a lot... I've always wanted to live in a place like that.”

You looked at him. “But what about your racing career?”

He shuggered. “I could always slow down a bit, you know? Maybe focus on endurance racing in the US.”

You smile a little. “I could see myself living there. Growing grapes, maybe even starting our own winery.”

He laughed. “We could call it "Leclerc Vineyards." Our very own family wine.”

You giggled. “I like it.”

You and Charles spend the next few minutes discussing the possibility of moving to Napa. The more you talk about it, the more excited you become about the idea.

You looked at him. “What if we went there for a vacation? Just to see what it's like.”

He smiles. “I think that's a fantastic idea! We could go next month because it's the summer break.”

“Yes! We could rent a cabin in the woods and spend a week exploring the area.” you say a little excited.

“I can't wait for this adventure.” he says while pulling you closer.

You and Charles spend the rest of the night talking about your future in Napa. As you drift off to sleep, you feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. Maybe your dreams were trying to tell you something after all...

***

The summer sun beats down on the vineyards as you and Charles arrive in Napa Valley. You've rented a charming cabin nestled amongst the rolling hills, and the first thing you notice is the peace and tranquility that envelops you.

You stepped out of the car. “Wow, Charles. It's even more beautiful than I imagined!”

He smiles. “I know, right?”

You take a deep breath, inhaling the fresh air: The scent of grapes hangs heavy in the air, and you can hear the distant chirping of birds.

You look around. “It feels... so familiar.”

“Familiar, hm?” he looks at you smiling while taking Leo and Luna out of their pet travel bags.

“Yeah, I don't know, it's like we've been here before.” you say while shrugging.

He kisses your cheek. “Maybe it's the magic of the place.”

Over the next few days, you explore the region. You visit vineyards, sample wines, and enjoy delicious meals at local restaurants. You even take a hot air balloon ride, enjoying breathtaking views of the valley below.

“Look baby! This one reminds me of the vineyard in my dream!” says Charles enthusiastically, pointing to a vineyard.

“It’s the same one that appeared in my dream!” you giggled.

You both laugh, feeling a strange sense of déjà vu. It's as if the valley itself is whispering secrets to you, confirming the feelings you've both been experiencing.

One afternoon, you decide to go for a hike in the nearby hills. As you walk along the trail with your pets, you come across a small clearing with a breathtaking view of the valley.

Charles stopped. “Look honey!” he says softly.

You stop and gaze at the view: the sun is setting, casting a golden glow over the vineyards. It's a picture-perfect scene. “Oh god! It's perfect.” you smile.

He takes your hand. “It's like we're in a dream.”

You giggled. “Oh, I know. Such a magical dream.”

You sit down on a rock and enjoy the view in silence. You feel a deep connection to this place, a sense of belonging that you've never felt before.

During your trip, you also explore other parts of California. You spend a day in San Francisco, marveling at the Golden Gate Bridge and exploring Chinatown. You visit Los Angeles, experiencing the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and you spend a few days in Orange County, enjoying the beaches and the laid-back atmosphere.

But no matter where you go, you keep coming back to Napa. It's like a magnet, drawing you back to its embrace.

“I don't want to leave this place.” you whispered to him, as you're driving back to the cabin.

He smiles. “Me neither... But I know we'll be back soon!”

Back at the cabin, you spend your last evening enjoying a romantic dinner. You talk about your dreams, your hopes, and your future together. As you look into Charles' eyes, you know that this is just the beginning of a new chapter in your lives...

And as you leave Napa Valley, you carry a piece of the magic with you. The memories of the beautiful scenery, the delicious food, and the feeling of belonging will stay with you forever.

You know that moving to Napa might not be easy. There will be challenges to overcome and sacrifices to make, but you also know that with Charles by your side, you can face anything.

And you know that somewhere, deep down, you both believe that this is where you're meant to be...

***

The crisp winter air of Napa Valley nips at your cheeks as you step out of the moving truck... A lot of boxes are piled high on the driveway of your new home, a charming cottage nestled amongst the vineyards.

You take a deep breath. “Oh god! We did it, Charlie. We actually did it!” you smile brightly.

Charles smiles at you, showing off his dimples. “We really did it.”

He pulls you close and kisses you softly and tenderly, the taste of winter air mingling with the scent of pine needles.

You look around. “It's even more beautiful than I imagined.” you whispered softly.

He just smiled contently. “I know, it's perfect!”

You and Charles spend the next few days unpacking boxes and making the cottage feel like home. You hang pictures on the walls, unpack your books and decorate the living room with cozy throws and blankets... And, of course, some racing memorabilia.

Charles smiles as he holds a painting. “Where should we hang this, sweetheart?” he asked sweetly.

“Hmm... How about we put it above the fireplace.” you smiled and he nodded.

As he hangs the painting, you notice Luna and Leo curled up on the rug by the fire. They seem to be settling in nicely.

You crouch down and gently pet Luna's fur. “They seem happy here! Oww, look at them!” you smiled.

Charles' smiled while he watched Leo play. “Yeah, I know!They're already exploring the garden.” he giggled.

Over the next few weeks, you begin to settle into your new life: you explore the local farmers' markets, visit the wineries, and go for long walks in the vineyards with Luna and Leo. You even start taking cooking classes, learning to make delicious dishes with locally sourced ingredients.

Charles' giggled as you two cook in the kitchen. “Oh my, I think I'm starting to get the hang of this!” he smiled.

You smile and grab a spoon to taste the sauce. “Mhm!” you sighed. “It's delicious, Charles!” you giggled.

One weekend, you decide to visit your family in Monaco and it's a bittersweet experience because you miss your old life, but you also feel a sense of excitement for the future.

“You look so happy, y/n! Napa is working miracles on you!” says your mother smiling.

“I am, Mama. We feel so happy there!” you say while hugging your mother.

Charles spends time with your family, charming them with his easygoing manner. They can see how happy you are, and they wholeheartedly approve of your decision to move to Napa.

Back in Napa, you start to think about your next steps and you decide to start a small business, and although it is difficult at first, little by little you manage to have a livelihood for yourself... Charles, meanwhile, begins to focus on endurance racing in the US, competing in local events and slowly transitioning away from Formula 1.

Charles smiles “I'm actually enjoying this more than I thought I would.” he sighed. “And I know it was difficult to leave Formula 1 behind and all that... But I like this, I don't know”

You kiss him softly. “I know you are, darling!” you smiled. “I'm proud of you, I know it's not easy, but here, perhaps, time passes more slowly.” you say softly and he nodded.

The life in Napa Valley is everything you dreamed of and more. You spend your days surrounded by beauty, enjoying the simple pleasures of life. You grow your own vegetables, make homemade wine, and spend your evenings watching the sunset over the vineyards.

One night you and Charles are sitting on the terrace of the master bedroom, while Luna and Leo sleep at the foot of the chairs.

“Do you remember those dreams we used to have?” you asked while looking at him.

“How could I forget about them baby? If it was thanks to those dreams that I met you.” he smiled softly.

You smiled. “I can't believe they came true Charles. They really did!” you kissed his cheek gently.

As you lie in bed that night, listening to the sound of the wind rustling through the trees, you feel a sense of peace and contentment that you've never experienced before.

This is your life now: A life filled with love, laughter, and the sweet smell of success.

And as you drift off to sleep in his arms, you know that this is just the beginning of a beautiful adventure.

Bensler are each other’s Person™️

(read below)

I feel like we talk a lot about bensler as lovers and in a romantic way, and dgmw I will literally never shut up about it bc that’s my OTP right there, but I also think we we don’t talk enough about them being each other’s Person.

The idea of a ‘Person’ is kind of like twin flames. It’s separate from romantic soul mates or any of the politics of friendship. It’s innate. Its atomic. It’s the person that you have a galvanised tether to that person and it endures everything. Every other relationship, all the fights and trauma.

For Benson and Stabler it’s cellular. It’s why even though Olivia was in love with him and he kept hurting her, she still never wavered in her loyalty or her commitment as his partner. She was there for his family. Even when they took a break as partners she came back after a minute. It’s why Elliot went along with her insane plans when she found Simon without a question and why he often felt more comfortable leaning on her than his wife.

Yes, he’s leant on her a lot more than she has on him but that’s kind of the point of a Person. There’s no scorekeeping, there’s no need for a balanced scale because it’s beyond social convention.

It’s why Olivia was able to snap into support mode and be there for him, more than she should’ve been, when Kathy died. Because even though he abandoned her, hurt her more than most people ever had, that’s her Person and she couldn’t abandon him in his ultimate time of need. Granted, my girl put her decade of therapy to use and set some boundaries eventually.

I think that’s maybe a reason why tptb have taken so long to let them be together romantically. It’s a separate connection altogether. Romantic/sexual attraction is undeniable between them but it’s not inextricable from the bond they share.

And I always think about how he should’ve been there immediately when Liv got jumped by BX9 and he should’ve been the one that helped her hunt down Oscar Papa, (we can’t get into the Lewis arc bc that’s just like banging our heads against a wall) but I don’t think she would have called him because she wasn’t used to leaning on him yet. She hadn’t shown him that much vulnerability even when the stuff happened in “Undercover” she didn’t tell him how it affected her. But she knew he was there in silent support. She also knew that if she did call him he would’ve committed much unaliving. But she leant on him to take care of Noah and she probably talked with him about the whole situation in depth afterwards. Thats the thing about a Person, you don’t have to lean on them for everything but when you do they’ll hold you up however you need.

Then in the recent eps, Olivia seems much more comfortable leaning on him, texting Elliot first about this guy who’s threatening her son, (I’ll do another post about this) her being by his bedside when he’s in hospital before even his own mother. That’s not friendship, it’s something beyond love.

They’re each other’s person and that bond can survive anything. Even if they dated and broke up it would still survive because it means more than any other kind of relationship.

CHAPTER 1: The Reckoning

— — — — — — — — — —

Summary: When Caroline wakes up from unconsciousness in an unfamiliar home, feeling intense emotion and with a new thirst for blood. She realises something is terribly wrong, until she hears that familiar accented voice call out to her.

(Basically a season 3 rewrite, except Caroline was a werewolf beforehand but Klaus turns Caroline into a hybrid instead of Tyler)

— — — — — — — — — —

Caroline’s golden curls were a disheveled and knotted mess, small splatters of blood tangled in the usually tamed strands of her hair. Her tresses were somewhat like a halo around her head, splayed out on the pillow she rested her head on.

She blinked her eyes steadily, adjusting to the unfamiliar surroundings. Her vision was still somewhat hazy; she had been unconscious. The last thing she remembered was having her neck snapped by Klaus, the evil man who had sought after her dear best friend Elena for his own selfish purposes– to use her in order to break the sun and the moon curse that had been placed on him over a millennium ago by his mother, Esther, the original witch.

Damon had been bitten by Tyler before the ritual. Werewolf venom was lethal to a vampire and always killed them; there had never been an official cure for it. You tended to accept your fate– that was until Klaus activated his werewolf side, becoming the first of his kind. The Original hybrid.
