"Stefan" I called out as I entered the boarding house. Damon would be pissed if he found out I was here alone. He had this urge to protect me and in a way I liked it..It was new.
I was frustrated. I couldn't say Stefan's name the way I wanted. My voice was dry, it felt like my throat was on fire. I couldn't breathe.
Stefan was gone. A ghost. There was no love. I told him I would'nt love a ghost all my life. I couldn't. He was locked in the cell until Damon decided to let him out. That night Damon slept next to me, a few times my arm brushed up against his. I was telling the truth, maybe Damon was the one that could break through to Stefan.
Damon...there has been so much they have been through. He always came through for me. Damon surprised me everyday, the way he would protect me..the way he would make me feel safe..safe from Stefan.
It chilled me know that it was now Stefan that I needed protection, but a part of me knew he wouldn't hurt me, but am I fooling myself?
When Stefan caught me from the bleachers. I felt it. That feeling of security and passion..Did he feel it? The way he looked at me. I knew he would catch me.
"Elena" My heart stopped. Stefan's voice coaxed.
I turned to him, my hair falling into place. He was leaning against the wall looking at me with those eyes that always made me forget who I was and what I was going to say. His eyes..green..like green leaves in the moonlight.
"Stefan" I managed to say. My heart was racing and I knew he could hear that. I looked back at him. He was so handsome. It broke my heart. I didn't realize I was staring until Stefan broke the silence.
"I know..I'm heard to resist. The scent. I remember it..but is there something you wanted in paticular? I'm hungry..I was about to go find someone to eat."
I glared at him.
"I mean something to eat...joking..lighten up Elena" Stefan said laughing.
His smile was so cruel. No emotion. A careless smile. His pale, chiseled features distracting her.
"I came to tell you something." I said, trying to make my voice sound brave.
Stefan came closer to me. "Can't it wait? Can't be that important, if it's escaping your lips."
I cringed at his harsh words. This wasn't my Stefan.
"No. It Can't"
"Figured. Okay..Elena..Tell me what I can do for you..and I'll do it."
I saw how he looked me up and down, taking on my body.
Carefully never taking my eyes from his. I removed my jacket, exposing my neck.
"You win." I said.
Stefan looked at me like he was confused."
"You win Stefan..and Klaus. I can't likve like this anymore Stefan."
Stefan tensed up and walked closer to me. I had tears in my eyes, I was trying to keep it together.
"I feel like a ghost..you and Klaus..you have taken my life away..I give up."
"So you are finally letting go of hope that someday I'll return to you and we run off into the sunset?" Stefan asked.
I reached into my bag that I still had on my shoulder and pulled out the small .32 gun. I put the gun to my head. I wanted an end.
Before I could even gasp, I was slammed into the wall. My back felt like it was on fire. Stefan snatched the gun out of my hand and threw it across the room. Stefan had me pinned, his body against mine. My arms over my head.
"Are you out of your mind Elena?" Stfan screamed. I've never heard him yell like that.
"Not yet..but I'm getting there." I screamed back at him.
"Why would you do that?" Stefan asked calmly, his eyes searching mine.
More tears welled up in my eyes. "Why not? You know it will happen anyway...A human blood bag? You think thats a life? Just kill me Stefan please..I don't want to live like this."
I had my throat exposed. I knew Stefan could feel my sweet pulse.
It filled all his senses, the heating of her heart, the smell of her exotic blood, just inches from him. So sweet. His head was spinning.
Stefan looked sharply at me. I looked back with eyes that were limpid, deep blue pools of innocence.
Stefan let go of my arms, I let them fall to my sides.
"Who would make painfully miserable?" Stefan asked, clearly trying to change the mood.
I crossed my arms. "don't worry..I'll come back as a ghost na dhaunt..make you miserable."
Stefan smiled. "Could you be naked in these haunts?"
I almost smiled. "Please..We both know you can't stand the sight of me."
Stefan brought his fingertips to the side of my cheek. "I beg to differ."
I flinched. "You don't get to touch me."
"No?" Stefan questioned.
"No." I repeated firmly.
"It never bothered you beofre when I touched you...you actually quite enjoyed it." Stefan said grinning ear to ear.
"Well it bothers me now." I was trying to be strong.
Stefan moved an inch closer. "Well..it always bothered me that you would never get on top."
I gasped. Did he just really go there.
"It really bothered me that you would never let me on top." I replied.
Stefan nodded. "Well I like to be in control."
I chuckled. "Well we all know thats the truth." I shook my head. "You are such a dick."
Stefan laughed. "And you are annoying."
"You are arrogant."
"You never do what you are told..and when you do..you screw it up." Stefan replied."
All this banter was driving me crazy. The tension was all around us.
Stefan placed both arms to the side of me against the wall. "You know what never bothered me about you Elena."
I shook my head. "Can't wait to hear this."
Stefan moved closer. I felt his hot breath on my neck, as I heard him whisper. "The way your toes would curl everytime I would make you feel satisfied."
Stefan immediately kissed my bare shoulder, it was soft and warm against his lips.
"The way you would hold on to me..like it was our last day together." His hands went down my body.
"The way you would smile and giggle everytime I would do this."
He went up and down my neck to my ear giving it a little nibble, and sexually kissing my neck
Stefan went for my trembling lips and I turned my head.
"I shouldn't have let you do that.. I won't let you again. I want to go home now."
Stefan nodded. "I would never hurt you intentionally Elena."
I closed my eyes and when I opened them..Stefan was gone.
