We both got lucky

This is a Damon and Elena fan fiction. I DO NOT own these characters! These characters are from L.J. Smith's books, 'The vampire diaries.'

Chapter 1 the Beginning.

"Elena! Hurry up we're going to be late!" Bonnie screamed from the bottom of the stairs. "Okay, okay I'm coming!" I said running, sort of, down the stairs carrying my suitcase.

"This is where it all begins!" Caroline announced stamping her foot on the ground. "Together we are starting collage! Just like we have always dreamed. When we step on t-" Caroline was cut off by somebody knocking at the door. I hurried over and opened it. It was Matt!

"Hey!" I greeted while hugging him. When he moved out of the way, I saw that Stefan was behind him, looking lovely as always. He greeted me with a kiss. "Can we keep the PG-12?" Bonnie cringed. We all laughed at her comment.

Two hours later at Elena's dorm.

Stefan and Matt were sharing a room on the west wing of the dorms. Caroline, Bonnie and I are sharing one on the east wing.

I flopped down onto my bed. When Bonnie said, " Soooo…" I shot up. That was Bonnie's 'I've been keeping a secret from you,' So.

Caroline was up staring at her too. "Bonnie Bennett! We have know you FOREVER! So we know when you have been keeping a secret! Just spit it out!" Caroline demanded. We both glanced at each other, looked at Bonnie and folded our ourms together in sync.

Bonnie stared back at us. We all sat like that for a minuet, just looking at each other. Neither of us broke our concentration. Caroline seemed as if she were throwing daggers or shooting a laser beam through her eyes.

All of a sudden Bonnie sighed and closed her eyes. 'The daggers must have hit her,' I thought laughing within herself.

"Fine I give up!" Bonnie confessed. "It's just I've got a, emmm, got a.."

"Come on Bonnie," I pushed.

"I have a boyfriend," she muttered. Caroline and I squealed.

Bonnie still looked upset, which made me confused. Obviously Caroline had noticed this as well, "What's wrong?" she asked. She looked up at us. "It's just, that I'm going out with… Jeremy." she ended on a very low note.

My jaw dropped then turned into a smile. I hugged her and simply stated, " Bonnie, that's great! He really deserves to be with somebody like you. And if your both happy together, I'm happy."

A few hours later in the Student Union.

Bonnie and Caroline are still unpacking up in the dorm. I got a text from Stefan saying that he needed to talk.

I had I a really sore head ache and I didn't really want to go, but be insisted.

We met in of the Starbucks. I saw him sitting at one of the tables way at the back. I walked over quickly, sat down with a smile.

"Hi," he said glumly.

"Stefan, is everything ok?"

"Look Elena, I'm breaking up with you."

This surprised me, "Wait what?" I asked unsure if this was a joke or not.

"We both know this," he waved his hand between us, " isn't working out,"

I looked at him blankly, "No Stefan, I'm sorry I didn't actually know that. And your just lucky enough that I'm nice enough to keep your secret!" I ended on a whisper.

He simply shrugged his shoulders like it was nothing. I grabbed my bag and coat and sprinted for the restroom, stumbling along the way.

When I got into the cubicle I started to cry, and cry for about 10 minuets. As my crying turned into quiet sobs I started to realise. Why am I crying over him? Sure he was good looking but the nice things ended there.

Then I got up out of the toilet stall and made my way over to the mirror and took a good, hard look at myself. My make-up had up ran, because of my stupid, salty tears. My hair was a bit scraggy and scuffed up.

I dipped my hand into my bag and grabbed my make-up bag and hair brush. I was there for about 5 minuets, and tadah! I looked as if I'd never been crying.

I checked my phone as I was walking out, when I bumped into a stranger and nearly fell. Only he caught me.
