MINE

Jeremy Gilbert stared at his ex–enemy and now sort of friend Tyler Lockwood in shock. He couldn't move, couldn't think; couldn't even breathe. What had Tyler just said to him? He must have heard it wrong. Yeah, that's it, he heard wrong.

"For fuck's sakes Gilbert, answer me," Tyler demanded after a while of staring at an unresponsive Jeremy. Still Jeremy couldn't move. He still wasn't even sure if he believed what he'd just heard. "Come on Jeremy, fucking say something, please. Say… anything!" Jeremy finally blinked and breathed in deeply then breathed out. He repeated this for another minute. "Gil— —"

"Let me think for a minute," Jeremy finally said, his voice wavering slightly. He cleared it and breathed in and out once more.

"Jere— —"

"Wait! I'm just shocked okay. I need to think."

"Okay…" There was another silent moment, a good ten minutes passed before Jeremy looked at Tyler again. "Well?"

"Me too," Jeremy whispered, looking down again, feeling as awkward as he looked.

"What?"

"Me too." Jeremy sighed and looked up at Tyler. "I… I mean, I think so. I'm pretty sure." Tyler looked at Jeremy with slight suspicion.

"Seriously?" Jeremy blinked then nodded.

"Yeah… seriously." Tyler sighed in relief.

"So do you really think I should make a move?"

"Yeah… I mean, if you want to then yeah. If you really think you're in love with this chick then I don't see why you shouldn't."

"Are you sure about this, Gilbert?"

"Yeah, I'm sure." Tyler looked at Jeremy doubtfully, eyes narrowing in suspicion.

"Then why did you react like that?"

"Like what?"

"So shocked, like I said I want to fuck your sister or something."

"I don't know. I guess I was just surprise you'd ask me for that type of advice. I mean, I just thought you'd talk to Matt about something, because he's your best friend and all that."

That reason wasn't a complete lie, though it was a lie no less. Truth was: Jeremy wanted Tyler, had wanted him since Tyler's father's funeral when he realised Tyler wasn't a complete asshole.

But Tyler wasn't gay. Tyler would never be with a guy, would never want to be with him. Jeremy was seen as Elena's weird younger brother. And for as long as he could remember he and Tyler were enemies, so why would Tyler want to be stuck with someone like that? It was ridiculous to even think there was a chance between them, because no way in hell would Tyler be with Jeremy.

"You're a terrible liar Gilbert," Tyler said with a shake of his head. Before Jeremy could defend himself, Tyler got up. "See you later." Tyler walked away whistling and smirking to himself like he'd just won a bet or something.

WTF?! Jeremy thought to himself as he got up and joined his sister, Elena and her best friends Bonnie and Caroline.

"Hey Jer, ready to go?" Elena asked.

"Yeah… sure." Elena looked at her younger brother quizzically. She didn't approve of his friendship with Tyler Lockwood, but she couldn't stop it from happen so she just had to suck it up and live with it.

"Okay." They all got into the car, Bonnie and Caroline in the back with Elena driving and Jeremy on the passenger seat. He was quiet, even more so than normal and Elena couldn't help feeling weird about it. And on top of that he was chewing on his lip as if chewing gum which meant that he was seriously stressed out. "Are you okay?" Elena finally asked with a slight frown.

"Yeah, yeah…" Jeremy nodded his head, letting go of lip. "I'm fine." Elena looked at her brother with narrowed eyes. "I'm fine, Elena."

"Mm… okay…" They put their seat belts on and Elena drove them to her house.

Jenna, the sibling's aunt, was standing by the door with the house phone in her hand. The three girls and Jeremy walked towards her.

"Hey Jenna," Elena greeted her aunt with a smile.

"Hey Elena," Jenna replied pulling her niece into a hug. "Here Jer, it's for you. It's Tyler Lockwood." Jeremy felt his heart skip a beat before it started beating faster, because what– the actual– heck?

"Thanks," Jeremy muttered before grabbing the phone and rushing up to his room. "What do you want, Lockwood?"

"What are you doing later?" came Tyler's voice.

"Nothing much… Why?"

"Oh… well never mind then."

"Lockwoo— —" But Tyler had already hung up. WTF times two!

Jeremy sighed deeply, taking off his clothes and pulling on sleeping shorts then getting into bed. He was tired, so very tired and he couldn't deal with Tyler's BS. Once comfortable in bed, Jeremy shut his eyes and went right to sleep.

…TBC…

Yep, that's it… please R&R. Don't judge it too much, I know it's dry but I think, I hope the second chapter is good…
