Authors' Note: (yes, there are two of us, we're sisters) This was Cerulean's idea, but Apocalypse is a better writer. This is our first fanfiction, so we are open to and appreciate constructive criticism, and flames if you feel it's really that bad. We do not own The Vampire Diaries. We hope you enjoy it.
Sibling Therapy: Prologue
"Damon! What did you do to my car?"
That was the first thing Elena heard when she walked into the Boarding House one morning.
"What's the difference? It was lame before, and it's lame now. So what's your problem?" asked Damon, sounding genuinely confused. (It was an act, of course. He knew exactly what he had done.)
"WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE! You drove it into the living room and got blood all over the seats! Oh, look, Elena's here," said Stefan, turning around to greet his girlfriend. At that, Damon came running in at vampire speed, soaking wet and shirtless (he had been in the shower)
"Hi guys. Wait, Stefan, why is your car in the living room?" asked Elena, clearly confused.
"Ask Damon, okay?" said Stefan, clearly annoyed.
"I'm sorry, brother. Are you mad?" Damon asked with mock confusion.
Stefan sighed and shook his head. "I'm not mad, Damon. I'm just dis-" At that, he seemed to lose his temper. "Who the hell am I kidding? I'm not mad, I'm furious! Why do you insist on making my life hell?"
"Well, who made my life hell by forcing me to turn? You did! Who screwed up my chances with Katherine? You did!" screamed Damon, losing his temper completely.
"Well I was with her first! You stole her!"
"Well you killed Mommy!"
Stefan gasped in horror. Damon had gone too far.
They began screaming at each other about everything they had done to each other including their perpetual argument about Damon flirting with Elena.
"I'm still here, you know!" yelled Elena. They stopped.
"Sorry," they said in unison.
"It's okay. Actually, that's the reason I'm here. See, there's this sibling counseling session tomorrow night at the Grill. I signed you two up. You're going."
"Whyyyyyy?" Damon asked, doing his signature 'flirty eye thing'.
"Because ever since Stefan came back from working for Klaus, all you two have done is argue about things that happened a century ago, and I'm sick of it. You can't argue for eternity, you know."
"Watch me," snapped Damon.
"Actually, I kind of agree," said Stefan. Then they started arguing again.
End of Chapter One
Authors' Note: Well, what did you think? Read, review, complain that we overused the word 'said'. For the next chapter: they go to the counseling session and meet some weird people, and some people you already know…. (Maybe Matt and Vicki? Klaus and Elijah? Greta and Luca? If you want it, request it.
