[ is jackie talking about the lost boys? god, she's from so long ago. still, caroline nods because sure that makes sense. despite how dated it is. ]
His name is Klaus. All my friends back home hate him. So I thought it would be easier here because they're not around to judge me for being a huge slut, but I think I'm fucking it up anyway.
[ she is, in fact, talking about the lost boys. her only real frame of reference of kiefer sutherland is still that and flatliners and she's pretty sure he plays a dirtbag in both. ]
Okay, first off, everyone here is kind of roped into being a slut, so screw that if that's what you mean. [ she doesn't know why klaus is hated back where she's from, but caroline is one of the most level-headed people she's ever met; her judgment's bound to be good. ] Why do you think you're fucking things up?
[ to anyone but jackie, it seems. she doesn't want to admit to klaus that she likes him, nor to stefan, despite whatever weird thing they have going on too. she's dancing around it instead of facing it and it's so unfair to klaus.
the worst part is she knows he wouldn't begrudge her uncertainty if she just told him. ]
[ jackie gets the feeling that this is more complicated than caroline's capable of (or comfortable with) explaining during a simple walk, since she's not volunteering why she doesn't want to admit that she still likes him. she's quiet for a moment as they keep walking, her hands around the sort-of hot chocolate as the considers. ]
Yeah, I get it. [ and she does, thinking back to travis back in the wilderness. that hadn't been fair to him, either. ] Well, I don't think people liking each other is really people's priorities right now. You have some time to figure things out, if you want to.

It's easier to pretend it's just sex, you know?
