He captured her heart, her mind, her soul. She had fallen for him long ago, but how many other girls like her are out there. How many other women have fallen under his spell? How many more are exactly like Elena?
Elena:
I woke in the morning and reach out to feel, not the muscular chest I was hoping for, but cold sheets, signaling that Stefan had left long ago. I open my eyes and groan, wishing I could've woken to his handsome features. Instead of moping, I push myself up so I'm sitting against the headboard and rub my eyes tiredly.
I can't help but wonder where Stefan ran off to. He just went hunting yesterday and as far as I know there aren't any problems with Elijah, or the werewolves, or any other supernatural beings. I groan and push myself out of bed, wondering what I should do with my free Sunday.
I decide to get a shower and then get dressed before going downstairs for breakfast.
After I'm all cleaned up and ready I rush down the stairs to the smell of smoke and see Aunt Jenna anxiously turning the knobs on the oven. A loud beeping echoes through the house and I hear Jenna curse. She runs over to the fire alarm with a dish towel and starts waving it around frantically.
"Elena, open the windows!" She yells over the shrill beeps.
I nod and run over to the window sliding it open, I then quickly rush to the door and open it widely, exposing a surprised looking Damon with his fist up ready to knock.
"Hey Damon." I say looking back towards Jenna anxiously. "Come in, just hold on a second." I tell him. I rush over and open the last window right as the smoke detector sounds its final beep.
I take a deep breath and look at Jenna who is looking at me quite embarrassed. "Sorry Elena, I was just trying to make some grilled cheese and well-" She trails off and waves her arms around, signaling around the kitchen.
I give a small chuckle and smile at her. "Hey it was a great attempt." I say as I walk over to the pan and bring it towards the garbage. I slide the black piece of bread into the garbage, and quickly scrape away the burnt bits. "Oh yeah, you can come in now Damon!" I yell towards the door.
I hear the front door shut and his footsteps on the wood panels as he makes his way towards the kitchen.
"I think I'm just going to have some cereal." I tell Aunt Jenna as Damon walks up beside me. She gives me a shy smile and nods.
"That sounds like a good idea." She says. "Anyways, it looks like you will have the house to yourself." She replies, but stops and glances at Damon. "I mean to yourselves." She corrects. "I'm going out with Rick and Jeremy is gone to The Grill with Bonnie. Don't do anything stupid." She says, giving me a knowing glance.
I roll my eyes and nod as she makes her way out the door. When the door finally slams shut I turn to Damon who's giving me a smirk. "I think that final comment was to me." He says raising his eyebrows.
"I agree." I tell him and watch as his eyes widen slightly as my dig. "So what do I owe this pleasure?" I ask him.
"I just wanted to come see you." He tells me as he walks into the living room. I trail behind slowly. "Is that so wrong?" He asks.
"No, not wrong," I answer. "Just, unexpected." I say sitting down on the couch.
He falls down beside me and sighs. "So, are we going to do something, or just sit around all day?" He asks in his arrogant, cocky voice.
I give him a smile. "I didn't know you wanted to spend the day with me." I tell him, raising my eyebrows at my little acknowledgment.
"Please, where else would a big, bad vampire like me rather spend his Sunday then with a teenage girl that's not even old enough to drink." He says, rolling his eyes towards me. "Now, let's go out, do something fun!" he says giving me his signature smirk.
"What do you suggest?" I ask him in a bored tone. I could easily guess his ideas.
"Well, you know what I want to do." He says, giving me a coy smile. "But I guess I could settle for a movie."
I smile at him and his attempt to control himself. "Well, what do you want to watch?" I ask as I get up and walk over to our DVD collection. "Romance, comedy, thriller, horror, action…" I trail off and look to him for his choice, but he's no longer looking at me, but towards the front door.
His expression shows me everything. He's upset and angry about something. I turn my head to look at the front door and see Stefan standing there, glaring right back at Damon. I sigh at their immaturity and stand up, making my way to the door.
I open the door and Stefan pulls his focus from Damon down to me. He gives me his sweet smile. "Come on in." I tell him.
He nods and steps inside. Once he's in, he pulls me into a tight embrace. I hug him back, surprised by his intensity, although I'm sure it's just for Damon's benefit. I pull back, but before I can say anything his lips crash onto mine.
I roll my eyes, knowing that he's doing this just to make Damon jealous. I know for sure when I hear a slight growl from behind. I focus on the kiss because the quicker I get into it, the quicker he'll stop this nonsense.
As I kiss him, I start to frown. He tastes like cherry. I pull back instantly.
He looks down at me confused. "You taste like cherry?" I say, more as a question than a statement.
His eyes widen a fraction but his face quickly returns to his calm expression. "Oh yeah, I was picking up some snacks for you for the house and they had a stand with dessert samples." I nod slowly. "I tried the cherry cheesecake. Pretty good, huh?" He says with a sweet smile.
I shake my head and smile, dropping my suspicions. He hasn't lied to me in the past, except for when he thought it was in my best interest. I decide to be calm about it, and be the trusting girlfriend I should be.
"So, Damon and I were going to watch a movie." I tell Stefan. I feel him tense up as I mention Damon. "Do you want to join us?" I ask, giving him a sweet smile.
He gives a little huff, but quickly gets over it. "Sure." He says returning my smile.
"Good, now we just have to pick what we want to watch." I say, turning to both guys.
Damon:
I wake up to the door shutting and glance at the clock. The clock reads 1:23 am. I groan and sit up tiredly. Stefan should be at Elena's so if he's here there must be something wrong.
I quickly change and speed downstairs to stand right in front of Stefan. He looks at me shocked. "Sorry, I tried to be quiet." He replies nervously.
"Seriously Stefan? You tried to sneak in?" I say amused. "What's up anyways? Shouldn't you be with Elena?" I ask curiously.
"She doesn't even know I'm gone." He says defensively. "She's sound asleep."
I nod with a frown. "Okay, but why are you home?" I ask.
"I'm getting changed, and then I'll be leaving again." Stefan says. He starts to leave, but I'm set on figuring out what it is that he's hiding.
"Leaving where?" I say following him slowly.
"Would you drop it Damon?" He says turning around angrily.
"Calm down Stefan." I say calmly, raising my hands. "I'm just curious to know what you're doing."
Stefan is suddenly in front of me with his face vamped out. I nearly laugh at his attempt to be scary, but then I realize he's not just angry. "You're on human blood." I say with a frown.
He takes a deep breath and calms down slightly, just enough for his face to return to normal. "I need it." He says nonchalantly. "I need to protect Elena."
"You going crazy again won't help anyone!" I tell him angrily. "Is that where you're going, to go hunt?" I ask him.
He looks away from me and his voice goes quiet. "No, not exactly."
"Damn it Stefan! Just tell me where you're going!" I yell at him, inches from his face.
He doesn't answer. He just shakes his head and speeds away. I roll my eyes and wait until he leaves to follow.
I easily follow his scent and arrive at a house a couple miles from Mystic Falls.
I glance through a tiny window to see Stephan curled up on the couch with a blonde woman, kissing her neck playfully. "Sorry I'm so late. I had to go hunting and then Damon gave me problems." He says pulling back.
"It doesn't matter. You're here now." The woman says looking into his eyes with adoration.
I give a low growl. He's completely playing this girl, not to mention Elena.
"I'm not really in the mood for a movie." The blonde says with a flirtatious smile.
Stefan just gives a smile and raises his eyebrows. "What are you in the mood for?" He asks.
"Let's go to my room so I can show you." She says as she intertwines their fingers. They stand and are soon out of my sight.
I am barely able to control myself. Thankfully this women hasn't invited me in or she would probably be dead and I'd be dragging Stefan out by his hair.
I'm about to turn and leave when I hear the moaning start. It nearly makes me sick knowing Elena is at home by herself, the weight of the world on her shoulders and Stefan's betraying her in every way.
I head home and pour myself a drink. For three hours I just sit and contemplate exactly what I should do.
I decide to head back to the blonde's home and wait for Stefan to confront him.
I use my vamp speed and arrive at the house quickly. I easily climb into the tree that overlooked the bedroom window. My brow furrows when I see the woman lying in bed, sound asleep, alone.
Where the hell did Stefan go? I gracefully leap down from the tree and easily find Stefan's scent. It leads even farther out from Mystic Falls. I run, following his scent as I go. I finally follow it down a lengthy driveway and arrive at a large house. I glance in all windows and I finally find a woman lying on a couch naked, once again alone.
I follow the trail back down the driveway and notice it goes the opposite way from where I came.
By now I'm seeing red, wondering how many women Stefan has visited tonight. He hasn't even drained blood, I would've smelt it. He's doing this for pure amusement.
I follow the scent to a small house and this time I hear the moaning.
"Mmm, Stefan." I hear a woman's voice moan.
Another voice also captures my attention. "Yeah, oh Stefan!" A voice cries, different from the first.
The damn bastards doing two woman. I feel my fangs extend and I have the urge to rip his throat out then tear him limb from limb.
Before I could do anything I'd regret I make my way back to Mystic Falls, no real destination in mind, just the thought of getting home.
Somehow, I wind up at Elena's window. I open the window and find her fingers searching as she whimpers quietly. How could Stefan leave her alone with all her nightmares of Elijah, the werewolves, Klaus.
I climb through and slowly and quietly crawl in beside her. I let her hands knot in my shirt and I wrap my arms around her waist. The whimpers silence and a relieved sigh graces her lips.
I smile at her easy contentment and just lie there, listening to her breathing.
Too soon I'm forced to leave. I open the window and take one last glance at her before leaping to the ground and running home. Stefan better pray he's not home or else he'll have quite an angry vampire to deal with.
Luckily he's not home. I decide to pour myself another drink and glance at the clock. It's only 9:00 am, but I've been up all night anyway. I don't think time matters too much.
I hang around the house drinking liquor and blood bags. I wait until eleven to go over and see Elena, and to see if Stefan decided to stop by.
I speed over and frown at the sound of the fire alarm. I walk up to the door about to knock when the door swings open to show a frantic Elena. I open my mouth to say something but she quickly cuts me off.
"Hey Damon." She says quickly. "Come in, just hold on a second." She tells me before rushing back towards the kitchen. The beeping silences and I hear Jenna and Elena talking.
"Oh yeah you can come in now Damon!" I hear from the kitchen. I shut the door and make my way to the kitchen. I stand beside Elena and my stomach knots thinking about Stefan and what he's probably doing right now.
I'm brought back when Jenna starts to talk. "That sounds like a good idea. Anyways, it looks like you will have the house to yourself." She says before glancing up at me. "I mean to yourselves." I give her a smile which she doesn't return. "I'm going out with Rick and Jeremy is gone to The Grill with Bonnie. Don't do anything stupid." She finishes giving Elena a pointed stare.
I could just imagine Elena rolling her eyes, but she nods. Once Jenna is gone Elena turns to me. I give her an amused smirk. "I think that final comment was to me." I say.
"I agree." She says quickly. I look at her, slightly shocked but amused at her quick reply. "So, what do I owe this pleasure?" She asks.
We banter and soon end up on the couch in her living room, ready to watch a movie. She rhymes off different genres to watch when I feel him. Stefan is here. I'm barely able to control myself. The only thing keeping me from vamping out is Elena, whose gaze has fallen on me.
She follows my glare to the door where Stefan is waiting, glaring at me. She sighs and gets up walking to the door. She's so unaware of his events and it makes me want to hurt him that much more.
She opens the door and after a short greeting he has Elena in a tight embrace. I roll my eyes at his not so subtle attempt at making me jealous. Once she pulls back he quickly grabs her face and kisses her hard.
I growl knowing exactly where those lips have been for the last few hours.
Elena pulls back and I let out a breath. She suddenly looks at him and I watch her cock her head to the right. "You taste like cherry?" She says confused.
I smirk Stefan's eyes widen, but he quickly places his calm collected mask back on and tells Elena some pathetic excuse which she somehow believes.
"So, Damon and I were going to watch a movie." She tells Stefan. I watch him tense up as she mentions my name. "Do you want to join us?" She asks, looking at him with her large doe eyes.
"Sure." He says unenthusiastically before giving her one of his small smiles, and I have the urge to rip out his throat.
"Good, now we just have to pick what we want to watch." Elena replies looking at us.
"Doesn't matter to me." Stefan says sitting down in the single leather chair.
Elena frowns for a second at the where Stefan is sitting and her inability to sit next to him. She quickly replaces it with a small, fake smile.
"Whatever you want." I tell her and give her the brightest smile I can manage with Stefan a mere five feet away.
She returns my smile and pulls out a DVD. Soon we're watching Sherlock Holmes, Elena sitting beside me. Far enough so we aren't touching but close enough that it doesn't look like we are avoiding each other.
I watch as she laughs at Robert Downey Jr. with a bright smile that lights up her whole face. I sigh in relief as she's totally oblivious to Stefan who has been checking his phone constantly and smiling at the screen.
When the movie finishes Elena stands up and turns off the TV. Stefan looks up from his phone and smiles at her. She quickly returns it and I resist grimacing.
"Elena," Stefan starts. "Do you want to go to the grill for lunch?" He asks.
"Sure Stefan." Elena says excitedly, completely forgetting about how distant he was before. "I just have to get ready." She says before rushing up the stairs.
Before he can say a word I have Stefan pinned to the wall by his throat.
"I know what you're doing Stefan!" I say with a low growl. "You're playing Elena and I want you to stop or break up with her first. No more cheating."
"I'm going to do whatever I want Damon." Stefan says raising his eyebrows and giving a smirk that mimicked my own.
I had enough of him. I slam his head against the wood and tighten my hold on his throat. "We'll see about that." I hiss before releasing him and rushing away, leaving Stefan crumpled on the floor taking ragged breaths.
This is my first Vampire Diaries Fanfic. I debated on writing it because the characters are much more complex. Please review so I know if I should continue!
Oh and sorry if Stefan is a OOC. He's on human blood so it's a bit understandable!... and its a fanfic so I'm allowed to make him how I want him! (:
