You Know Nothing About Me

Whatever you need, I'm right here. Tyler's words were echoing in her mind while he was driving her home. She could have ran, it would have even been faster, but he had insisted. She glanced at him: he still wore his jersey, he hadn't take it off after the game.

A few days had passed since the full moon and his first transformation. Things were a bit awkward between them – hell, she had seen him naked! – but she couldn't help but notice that he looked at her differently. She didn't know what to think about that. Her mind was still confused about Matt, he had kissed her earlier that day and asked what she was keeping from him. He had noticed that Tyler and her were closer than they ever have been, but he had to be kept in the dark about Mystic Falls and all its creatures, he can't know, it would be too much of a risk for him, she knows that. But Tyler knew her secret and she had finally someone to talk to, someone who understood better than anyone else. Someone that was as new as her in the whole supernatural 'thing'. It felt good, not holding back, no secrets, no lies about her true nature.

But she hadn't told him the entire truth either. She talked to Damon earlier that day and he told her about Mason's friend, Jules. She was a werewolf too, not a good thing. What if she tried to get to Tyler and tell him everything? About Damon and the other vampires in town? He could turn against her, against them all… It could get dangerous and she didn't know what to do.

"Caroline, are you in there?" came a voice. With all that thinking, she didn't notice that they were already at her house.

"I'm sorry, I blanked out… I, um, thanks for giving me a ride home." She smiled at him and got out of the car. She hurried to get inside, to get away from him, to get away from his stare, but she forgot that now he had supernatural abilities like she did until she felt him grab her arm and flip her around. And then he kissed her. It was sweet and gentle but desperate at the same time. She froze but finally gave in and kissed him lightly back. She felt his hands cup her face, trying to deepen the kiss. She snapped back to reality and broke off the kiss. She stared at him, a bit dazed.

"Why- what-" she stuttered, "Everybody just needs to stop kissing me!" she turned around and shut the door. She leaned back against it, closing her eyes and trying to calm down. She would lie if she said that she didn't feel something when he had kissed her. Grr,why did everything always get complicated? She hadn't enough problems already! He was still there, she could hear his breathing.

"Caroline! Caroline, please open the door" she heard him plead but she didn't move nor made a sound. She was still leaning against the door and waited until she finally heard him leave. She slowly made her way toher room, put on her pajamas and collapsed in bed.


She woke up that night and looked at the clock, it read 4:38am. She tried to get back to sleep but something didn't feel right, the hair at the back of her neck were raised. She had the feeling that someone was watching her. She got up and carefully went to the window. She slowly peered out and saw…

"Tyler?" she said as she opened the window, "What the hell are you doing here? In the middle of the night?"

"I needed to talk to you. About earlier." He said as climbed in her room. She folded her arms as she faced him.

"And it couldn't wait until tomorrow morning? You do realize what time it is, right?" she said as she watched him sit down on the edge of her bed. She remained near the window, looking at him with weary eyes.

"Look, I wanted to apologize if I offended you when…you know, when I kissed you earlier. You literally closed the door at my face and didn't give me the chance to explain. But I'm not sorry that I did it."

"Listen Tyler, you may think that you owe me or something because I helped you go through the transformation but you don't. I wanted to help you and I actually care about you, a lot, but you know nothing about me, about everything…"

"What do you mean 'about everything'" he said, staring at her. He was frowning, oh why did I do that? she scolded herself mentally, ok let's do this, it's too late now.

"I didn't tell you everything…" she stopped, looking at him.

"Go on" he said, confused.

"You're not the only werewolf in town Tyler."

"What? Who?" he asked. "If this is some kind of joke, it's not funny Caroline."

"Jules, Mason's friend." she simply said. Silence filled the room, he was looking at her while different emotions flickered on his face. He wasn't talking but she could see the question in his eyes so she continued.

"She bit Rose, Damon's friend. A werewolf bite is lethal to vampires. She's dead." She whispered. Suddenly she felt a gust of wind and he was in front of, his body inches from hers, his eyes black from anger.

"You lied to me when you said you were the only vampire in town. Why?" he said.

"Damon threatened me, he said that I couldn't tell you anything about us. But you cornered me and I only told you about me."

"Who else is like you?" he asked silently.

"Damon, Stefan and I are vampires. Bonnie's a witch, Elena and Jeremy know, as well as Mr. Saltzman." His eyes flashed at hers, bewilderment clear in them. He staggered back until his knees hit the end of her bed and sat down. She let out a breath she didn't know she was holding while he sat there, trying to process what she'd just said to him. There was a long silence in the room. He finally looked at her, he had to ask her, he had to know.

"Why did you stay with me that night? If werewolf bites can kill vampires, why did you take the risk? No, don't answer that, Damon asked you to keep an eye on me, didn't he?" he snorted.

"No, Damon said I cannot be your friend, but you are my friend and-"

"Right. You know what though, I don't want to hear any of your lies anymore, so I'm gonna go. Now." He got off the bed and started toward the window but she intercepted him. "Get out of my way Caroline" he snapped.

"No. I won't move until you'll let me explain."

"Don't push me Caroline" he warned. His hands were shaking and his eyes were dark. He was furious.

"Or what? You'll kill me?" she countered.

He didn't say anything, he just stared at her intensely and then brushed past her. She heard her window being shut and after a few seconds she heard a car's alarm go off in the street. It was echoing in the dark night. She sighed and went back to bed. I'll fix everything tomorrow, when he's settled down, she thought before dozing off.


A/N: here's my first attempt at a fanfic'. This is the first thing I ever wrote so don't be too hard on me, 'kay? Aaaand English is not my mother language so I apologize if there are any mistakes (though I'll try my best not to make any)! I don't have a beta.

Well, first and foremost I am a Damon and Elena shipper, but I keep waiting and waiting and nothing is happening :( I can't help but feel a bit let down this season. But I found a new couple to ship :) Caroline & Tyler! I am so psyched about these two, they need more lovin'
