Authors Note: This story is a Jyler story that leads on with my Matt/Stefan – Stefan/Matt story which is 'Winter Fire.' So, things might occur in this that you don't understand, because some of it is from the other story. I REALLY love Jyler, and Jyler was going to be a pairing in my other story, but I got these huge ideas to write a short Jyler series, so I'm going for it.

Disclaimer: I don't own these characters, nor the show. I do own the plot for the story though, so that's got to count for something, right? :D

Pairing: Jeremy/Tyler – Matt/Stefan, Stefan/Elena.

Warnings: For the story in general, SLASH! Maybe not in this chapter, I don't remember, lame I know lol

Chapter One

The day had been boring, mostly. Gym was fun, they had volleyball all week. It was fun to spike the ball over the neck, cause most of the time the coach didn't care. He felt the itch under his skin, his body humming as he sat through Alaric's history class. Alaric was talking about death's that occurred in the early ages of Virginia. In truth, Jeremy wasn't paying an ounce of attention to the lesson, though he doubted Alaric hadn't noticed.

His leg was bouncing up and down nearly smacking against the desk, the heel of his shoe tapping against the hard tiled floor. His chin was resting against the palm of his hand, wrist bent as he stared out the window. The sun was shining through, warming against his skin absent of a jacket that day. Trying not to yawn in mock affect as he caught Alaric's eyes in the front of the class. The history teacher by day and vampire hunter by night, just sighed shaking his head. When he turned around Jeremy knew he was smiling slightly.

He made little cracks at Alaric about his morning glow, as Jeremy called it 'after glow'. He took every chance to tease Jenna and Alaric about their sex life. He couldn't call it a private sex life, seeing as the noise kept him up sometimes. More often than not he was sneak out through the window, and be back before the sun rose.

Feeling the vibrating sensation in his right front jean pocket Jeremy froze slightly. Looking around for some kind of excuse he coughed before raising his hand. Alaric turned around at the noise and raised his eyebrows. "Yes, Mr. Gilbert?" He lowered his hand and shifted in his seat. "Can I use the restroom?" Alaric gave him a look before nodding and gesturing at the door. "Take your bag with you, school day ends in a few minutes." He threw him a thanks before sliding out the seat-desk, gathering the things that littered it and exiting the room with his pack slung over his shoulder noting that there wouldn't be any homework for this glass today. Though he nearly tripped on the front row of desk, making a few of the students give off a chuckle.

Jeremy looked around the empty hallway before he walked the two to get to the bathroom. He will never know why they were so far away, but still. He entered and again found an empty room. Walking into one of the stalls he sat down with his pants on and dropped the back near the corner. He pulled out his cell phone out and clicked the top turning the screen on. Rolling the touch ball till he got to his messages he opened it up to see 1 new message..from Tyler.

It really wasn't a surprise that Tyler texted him, seeing as it was the last class for the day.

Tyler L: [2: 34] Are you planning on coming over to my house after school?

Jeremy really wondered why Tyler actually had to ask him that, he knew he was. Clicking on reply he quickly texted back.

Reply [2: 37] It still amazes me that you still ask that question Ty, it really does.

Jeremy had to smirk at his own response, knowing Tyler was shaking his head at it when he actually read it. The image of Tyler tisking like a girl and shaking his head at Jeremy's text had him covering his mouth as he laughed. The young werewolf would be appalled at at Jeremy's wording, or the fact he was laughing at it. Looking up at the surrounding walls around him, the gray stall seemed bleak. The janitors here actually cleaned the bathroom well, leaving it to smell like pine and wood. Sighing he nearly dropped his phone on the hard floor as he vibrated once again in his hand.

Pulling the message up he clicked on the icon.

Tyler L : [2:39] Yes, of course I am. You could be spending time with other people.

"Who would I be spending time with?" Jeremy asked aloud quietly, though he already had a faint idea of who he was talking about. Tyler had been restless as he spent time with Bonnie, he saw the way her efforts to get more of Jeremy's attention had doubled when he no longer followed her around. Jeremy had stopped trying to be with her, and now she is trying to get back his attention.

Before Jeremy could reply to his message, the bell signaling the days ending had him standing quickly and shoving his cell back into his front right pocket. Grabbing the top Of his pack before unlocking the stall door and exiting. He heard lockers open and close, people's voice getting louder as they gather with his friend. It was still Monday, he didn't know how people could still be so cheerful. Walking out of the bathroom he looked around at the nearly full hallway. Looking over people's head search for the face he wanted to see. Walking along the highway, nearly getting ribbed twice, or knocked over he finally came around the corner.

A few people in his class nodded at him, but didn't stop to chat, though he would find it creepy if they did. After getting the tilt of the drug head, people strayed away from him. Well, unless he knew them before, like Elena and a few closer friends. He was taller than most, considering most of the girls only made it to his shoulder. Jeremy tapped his teeth together as he watched all around, but after a few seconds sighed in mild annoyance and walked towards the front exit. When he rounded the last hallway to freedom he spotted Bonnie and Elena. They just stood there staring mostly at the front exit.

The youngest Gilbert nearly laughed evilly as he snuck up close to the still girls, who were staring out ahead of them, but who also didn't seen to notice his arrival. His foot steps were quiet as he crouched his head lower and closer to their ears. He stared in the general direction of their eyes, searching up and down the hallways for any clue as to what they were looking at. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary, or overly interesting. "So, what are we looking at?" Both girls jumped gasping as they were startled out of their gazing as they turned almost in sync and whacked his arms. "Don't DO that Jeremy." Jeremy just laughed as he left them scold him on not sneaking up on them.

Elena shook her head in mild annoyance before peering back over at the door. His eyebrows raised as he rubbed his left arm in mock hurt before turning his head too look at Bonnie.

"I'm gonna go..need to get home and...do homework or something." Elena said her goodbye with a hug to Bonnie and wave at Jeremy saying she would seem him later at home. Turning she slung the strap to her messenger bag over her head letting it rest against her torso before exiting as well. Jeremy had to let out a chuckle. He didn't know why the situation seemed funny to him, it just did. "Jeremy." Jeremy's eyebrows raised before he looked at Bonnie.

She had a small shy small on her face, her head tilted to the side. He furrowed his eyebrows for a second in question, a friendly smile quirking the sides of his lips. "I've gonna be off Cheerleading practice at 4:30, you wanna head to the grill with me after?" Her hands laced in front of her as her hip tilted leaning more weight on one leg as she asked him with a light tone. The image gave her an innocent girl look, the look of someone trying to either flirt or something else.

"I uh.." Jeremy didn't finish his sentence as something brushed against him. When Jeremy turned his head his eyes locked with the dark ones of Tyler Lockwood...just the person he had been looking for. Bonnie looked at Tyler waving, though she doubted he even realized she did, or didn't give a damn to wave back. No words were said between the to as Tyler just kept walking. Tyler had gotten a few feet with a slight grin on his face before breaking the contact and walking away. Bonnie eyes didn't catch as Jeremy let his eyes travel down the short but built frame.

A few Hellos were thrown around to him by a few of the other players, a manly fist bump was seen before Tyler was out of sight. Bonnie turned towards him seeing the small smile playing against his lips before he turned back to her as well, adjusting the strap against his one shoulder. Bonnie reached out and touched his arm squeezing slightly. "So how 'bout it?" Throwing another small at him.

"I uh, gotta go. Got homework and stuff to do. Another time, yeah?" Slipping his arm as he mostly ran out the front.

Authors Note: Okay, short, I know, but the second is longer, trust me. Cause I wrote this Authors note while writing the second chapter...well stopped and wrote this, anyways! I was on five pages, and not done yet. Don't know how many paragraphs, but I am guessing quiet a few. I ate taco bell! So I am fed well while writing, though I drank five cups of coffee today, not to mention a rather large cup full of Pepsi. Mwahahah.
