So this is my story. I have written about four chapters of it... I have written for this website before, a long time ago, but never the Vampire Diaries. This story is extremely AU, so keep that in mind. I hope this is read and I would love feed back to make myself a better writer.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything.

Chapter 1: Vampire Smile

Baby I need a friend
but I'm a vampire smile, you'll meet a sticky end
I'm here trying not to bite your neck
but it's beautiful and I'm gonna get
so drunk on you and kill your friends.
You'll need me and we can be obsessed
And I can touch your hair and taste your skin
the ghosts won't matter 'cause we'll hide in sin

She didn't know where he was from. She didn't know his middle name, or if he had a big family. She didn't know anything about him, and she wanted to keep it that way.

They sat two rows apart from each other in college algebra. To an outsider, one would never know they knew who the other was. They kept it under wraps, no one picking up the subtle glances she never realized she made. Or the fact he checked the clock every five minutes. A clock that happened to be right behind her.

She refused to get close to him. She refused to get close to anyone because as a vampire, you could not get close to people. She watched too many people die, and she was done feeling that overwhelming pain. He was a release from the pain of her mom being gone. She still could not get used to not calling her every day. She still forgets and calls anyway only remembering when her mom's voicemail picks up leaving her broken and in tears. Part of her wishes she could turn off her humanity. She knew it could be done. Enzo had done it before after he had lost his wife. He said he still cannot believe he was able to turn it back on. He explained that while having your humanity be gone made it easy to kill and not care, it made you want to. He said it takes a toll on you wishing you could jump off the nearest cliff and not live the fall. She didn't want that.

So Caroline Forbes found other outlets to forget the pain. And Stefan Salvatore was a good outlet. No strings, no questions. Nothing. Just like she wanted. He never would know what she was, and she would not feel the pain anymore.

If only she knew there was so much more to it all.


She was late to class-once again. She had to feed and had a hard time finding anything to snack on before class. All she wanted to do was go vamp speed across campus, but there were too many people around, and she couldn't compel them all. She wouldn't do that anyway. She hated compelling people, which is why she did not compel Stefan to forget her after their first tryst. She figured she could just forget about him. It was not like she would see him again. Of course, he ended up being in her class, but she still did not do anything. She couldn't. She had been compelled before. It wasn't fun.

She skidded into class just as another girl was and crashed into her. The girl's books dropped to the ground and papers flew everywhere. Caroline instantly started grabbing papers frantically apologizing, "I'm so sorry. I was not watching where I was going,"

The brunette shyly smiled, "Don't worry about it. We were both not looking,"

"You're Elena, right?" Caroline asked once they had stood up and made their way into the class. She had seen the girl around campus. She was definitely new and was always with an older guy. And when Caroline said older, she meant she knew he was probably in his late twenties but could pass as nineteen if he really wanted to.

"Yup, Elena Gil- Salvatore." She stuttered through her name making Caroline raise an eyebrow at her. "I just got married. Still not used to it," With that, she made her way to her seat sitting right behind Stefan.

Caroline was dumbfounded. She felt a lump in her throat and wanted to crawl into a hole. Not because she liked Stefan and was hurt to know he was married, but because she could potentially be ruining a marriage because of her own selfish needs. Elena was such a nice girl and had no idea her husband was a scumbag who ran around on her.

All class she watched them trying to put it together. They laughed and joked, but they never really acted married. What was she saying? She didn't know how married couples were supposed to act like.

Her parents were so different than other couples that she didn't know what a functional couple looked like.

At the end of class, Elena left Stefan only whispering, "I'll see you at home," as a goodbye.

Well, now Caroline knew they were married. She just said she would see him at home. Now she was so mad at Stefan she could feel her vampirism spilling out. She tried to keep calm as she passed his desk to drop off her classwork.

"Are you stopping by tonight?" he asked not looking up from his book.

Caroline glared at him wanting to say so many things, but only muttered a no before scurrying out of the class.


"He's married, Bonnie," Caroline snapped into the phone to her best friend.

"Who?"

"Stefan! He is married and I ruined a marriage and she is like really nice and I am going to hell."

When she had finally gotten off campus, she ran to the woods and called her best friend. She was pacing back and forth trying her hardest to stay calm. She always came to the woods to find answers and peace. She had even before she became a vampire.

She also always went to Bonnie Bennett. They had known each other since kindergarten. After Caroline turned, she found it hard to tell Bonnie, but once she did she learned her best friend was a witch. Though they are supposed to be natural enemies, Bonnie grew to accept Caroline for who she was. Bonnie began to accept other vampires. Even going as far as falling in love with one.

Bonnie and Caroline decided to move states away from home to go to school since neither had family to miss. They packed their things and moved into a small apartment and hoped for the best. Of course there were months where they had too much month at the end of their money and of course Enzo helped them out.

"What do you mean he is married?"

"I mean I literally ran into his wife, and she is in my math class, and then she said goodbye, and he had the audacity to ask me if I was coming over." Caroline kicked a small tree making it crack and shake, leaves falling all around her.

"Care, you are rambling."

"Sorry," she mumbled, "I'm just freaking out. I might start hyperventilating,"

"Can vampires hyperventilate?" Bonnie asked conversationally.

"We are about to find out. Bonnie, I am ruining a marriage,"

"Don't you think it is weird he would ask you over if he was married? Wouldn't he want to go your house?"

Bonnie was always the voice of reason and this time was no different. Caroline stopped pacing and started to rethink things. "You're right, but it doesn't change the fact they have the same last name."

"Maybe they are brother and sister."

"She said she just got married and she wasn't used to saying her new last name, Salvatore."

Bonnie sighed, "Caroline, you can't jump to conclusions about these sort of things. You should probably just talk to him. If he is, then you stop all contact with him. You didn't know he was married, and now that you know, you won't continue seeing him."

"You're right. I will politely ask him if he is."


"You know it is one thing to sleep with someone casually and not have any regrets, but it is completely different when one of them is married," she hissed the next day after class.

Stefan's eyes went wide, and she knew she had caught him. "You're married?"

He is ridiculous. She had a class with his wife as well as him, and he was going to act like he was innocent. "No, you are."

He smirked and even gave a slight chuckle making Caroline's blood boil. "I'm not married."

"Your wife is in this class." She threw her arms out in the air completely baffled by the man in front of her. She was disgusted by him.

"That's not my wife."

"Then why else does she have your last name, and said she just got married, and said she would see you at home yesterday?" She rambled on not realizing she had slipped up. Elena had only whispered her goodbye, and no one could probably have heard it.

"How did you hear her say that?" He asked cocking his head to the side.

"Not the point, you cheater."

Stefan shook his head at her deciding he would just put her out of her misery. He could tell the blonde was having a moral dilemma afraid she had ruined a marriage. "She's my sister in law. She and my brother just got married and moved here."

Caroline felt her cheeks start to turn an embarrassing shade of red. "Oh,"

"You think I would cheat on my wife?" He asked slightly peeved she thought so low of him. Sure, he wasn't the greatest person, but if he was married then he would be married to a woman he truly loved, and he would never cheat on her.

"You cheated on Samantha," she rebutted.

"We dated for literally one week. It was a little different."

She sighed, crossing her arms tight across her chest. "I'm sorry I jumped to any conclusions,"

"Don't worry about it. I get that it seems fishy. Especially since my brother is older so all you see is me and a girl with the same name."

She shifted her weight to the one leg. "How much older is he?"

"He is eight years older than her." Caroline's lips formed an 'o' shape in surprise. She didn't know much about Elena, but the shy girl didn't seem the type to marry someone eight years older than her. "Works out he doesn't look it, and she doesn't act it."

Caroline nodded at his words thinking of a reason to leave. She needed to be meeting up with Bonnie to help her with some spells. Bonnie was slowly becoming stronger, and she needed someone there to help her. Bonnie felt like something bad was going to happen, and Caroline needed to be prepared. Of course, she could not tell Stefan this.

"I need to go." Really, that's the best you could come with? She mentally berated herself.

"You want to come by at some point?" he asked. It wasn't a clingy sort of question. He asked in a way that made him seem totally uninterested. Like her answer had no effect on him because he could go find anyone else if he wanted.

"I can't. I have to help a friend with something." She stumbled through the words not really knowing how to explain herself.

He shrugged, "I will see you Friday then."

She nodded and gave a weak smile before watching him walk out the door.


Caroline watched Bonnie chant words she didn't understand. She felt like Bonnie was doing too much too quickly and it bothered her. She had voiced these opinions before, but Bonnie shrugged her off. Bonnie knew she could stop if it got too much. At least that is what she told Caroline, but it still made Caroline worried for her best friend. She didn't understand what Bonnie was so tense about. They hadn't had to deal with any evildoers in quite some time. Bonnie was so tight lipped about it all that Caroline had no idea what was going on or even the questions to ask.

After Bonnie stopped her chanting, she started to sway back and forth. Caroline was across the room in no time at all (literally, considering she was a vampire), catching her best friend and sitting her in the closest chair.

"Take a break, Bonnie."

Bonnie for once agreed with Caroline. "There is a lot of chatter on the other side,"

Caroline raised an eyebrow, "The other side? What about?"

"Well from what Kol says, there is a boy. A strange, insane boy and this boy could kill us all."

Baby you need to leave
cause I'm getting drunk on your noble deeds
It doesn't matter that they don't get done
when I feel this cold they're like the fucking sun

Baby I need a friend
but I'm a vampire smile, you'll meet a sticky end
I'm here trying not to bite your neck
but it's beautiful and I'm gonna get

so drunk on you and kill your friends.
You'll need me and we can be obsessed
And I can touch your hair and taste your skin
the ghosts won't matter 'cause we'll hide in sin

Baby you have a choice
cause you burn my ears with your magic voice
I'm a paper doll, you can tear me up
We'll be the broken lovers with the poison cup
And we'll draw in breaths like we don't have air
Oh god, look at me, don't you ever care
that I'm dying in the cupboard underneath the stairs?
Steps stamp on above my head

Baby you're cruel to me
but you see I love it when you make me plead
I want a scar that looks just like you
'till then I gotta learn to be a wiser fool

Baby you need to leave
and I know you know
that's why you keep ignoring me
because if you don't
gonna run me down, let myself go
