A/N. I do not own the charactors, or The Vampire Diaries. If I did it would be Damon/Elena and Caroline/Stefan! This is my first Vampire Diaries story that is not all about Elena and Damon, so I hope I capture Caroline and Stefan well. This story will feature Damon and Elena together though, and they will get together later on, but mostly it's Steraline! Enjoy!

Caroline walked thruh the dark streets of Mystic Fall's. Bloodthirsty. She ignored and fought the urge to break down doors and tear her fang into helpless peoples necks. Sometimes she sat and thought to herself, thought about the people that no one would miss...the outcasts. At one time Caroline made a list of people in Mystic Fall's. Deciding which ones wouldn't be missed. Caroline hated that she thought like this. Like a monster who only wants to kill. Truly, she didn't. Caroline was trying to save every inch of her humanity, after all she doesn't want to end up like Katherine.

Caroline stopped, mid-street, when she heard a bush rustleing.

''Hello?'' Caroline whispered to empty night. She heard the bush rustle again. This time more violent.

''Who's there?'' Caroline questioned, this time more urgent and pushy. Caroline heard a growl. She felt her fangs extend as she prepared to lunge for whatever it was.

''I am going to say it one last time. Who's there?'' Caroline said once more. The growling and rustleing got louder and faster, then finally a wolf came out of the bush. Caroline noticed that this was no normal wolf, it was a werewolf.

''Oh, crap,'' Caroline muttered, before she took off running. This was the last thing that she needed. But then a thought accured to her. All the werewolves left. Jules took Tyler away. Could there be more? She thought. Then she saw it's eyes, it was his eyes; Tyler. Caroline stopped running, and Tyler stopped right at Caroline's feet.

Caroline hesitantly took a step foward, reaching her hand out. ''Tyler?'' Then a huge growl was all she heard, before she woke in her bed, with sweat pouring down her face. She didn't even know that vampire's could sweat? Well, guess you learn something new everyday.

''It was just a dream...just a dream...just a nightmare.'' Caroline groaned. Putting her hands on her face. Caroline heard her cell phone beep. She reached her hand out to her beside table, and looked at the caller id; Elena. Caroline pressed the 'send' button and greeted Elena.

''Hey, what's up?'' Elena asked. Caroline controlled her heavy breathing easily.

''Just woke up from a little nap. What about you?'' Caroline asked. She got out of bed and dug around in her pile of clothes, looking for her yellow sweater.

Elena took in a deep breath, then sighed. ''Not so good. Me and Stefan broke up.'' Elena confessed.

Caroline sighed. ''Need a girl's night? Me and Bonnie can come over right after school if you want?'' Caroline asked.

Elena sighed again. ''Actually, I've got plans tonight.'' Elena said, a strange edge to her voice.

Caroline paused. ''Ooo, got a date already. You cougar!'' Caroline said, playfully.

Elena laughed. ''No, actually. I've got to meet with Damon about some vampire problems going around town, not a big deal.'' Elena stated. Caroline noticed the hidden meaning behind her words.

''I didn't mean to eat the mailman, he came at breakfest time!'' Caroline said, in a playful voice.

''Caroline!'' Elena said.

Caroline smiled and laughed. ''Just kidding. So, is Damon your protector now?'' Caroline questioned. Finally finding the yellow sweater, she threw it over her head, grabbing her green vest.

Elena sighed. ''It's just complicated between me and Stefan right now. And I don't worry, I need you too.'' Elena assured her. Caroline smiled. Caroline threw he plaid skirt on.

''I'm glad,'' Caroline said.

Elena laughed, a shaky laugh. ''Elena, are you OK? You seem...different.'' Caroline said. Elena suddenly sighed really loud and then Caroline heard the dial tone.

''Elena? Elena!'' Caroline yelled.

Caroline burst thruh the ER doors. She found Jenna, Damon, Stefan, Alaric, Jeremy, Matt, and Bonnie sitting in the waiting room. Bonnie's head popped up when Caroline walked in, she ran over towards her and hugged her.

''Is she OK?'' Caroline asked Jenna, as she stood in front of her.

Jenna took in a shaky breath, the coffee in her hands was slipping. ''Um, we don't know anything yet. But thank you, Caroline for calling me and making sure I check on Elena.'' Jenna said. Caroline nodded.

''No problem,'' Caroline said.

Then the doctor walked up them, with a board in his hand. ''Miss Sommers?'' The doctor read, then he looked towards Jenna. ''Are you guys here for Miss Gilbert?'' He asked. Jenna nodded.

''Yes, what happened to her?'' Jenna asked. The doctor sighed.

''It's nothing to be concerned about. Probably just stress related, or perhaps she hasn't been eating right or at all, or it could possibly be lack of sleep. Do you know?'' The doctor questioned Jenna. Jenna stuttered. Caroline stepped up.

''Well, she hasn't been sleeping well, and she just broke up with her boyfriend. Her life is a mess right now.'' Caroline said. Jenna smiled to Caroline.

''OK, than that's your cause. Right now all she needs is relaxation and sleep.'' The doctor said.

''I'll make sure that she gets it. Can we see her now?'' Jenna asked.

''Yes, but only two visitors per visit.'' The doctor commanded. Jenna nodded.

''C'mon Jeremy,'' Jenna said, as Jenna and Jeremy walked back, Caroline sighed.
