The Unlikely Couple

Birds were quietly chirping as Elena woke to the subtle breeze of her open window. Another day, Elena thought. She got up and shivered as the cool air brushed against her skin, inhaling deeply, Elena reluctantly threw off the covers to get ready for the day.

The warm, yet harsh, drops of water hit her skin as Elena showered, hitting only one half of her body as the other half was left with goose bumps. "Ah, that's better" Elena softly sighed as she got out of the shower and wrapped the fluffy towel around her. She looked in the mirror. Examining her body shape, then, she peered at her face. Her blood red sclera's and the red pumping veins frightened her. "Breakfast time" she sighed, as if it were a bad thing.

Elena got dressed, straightened her hair, did her makeup and got ready for the day. The house was quiet, as Matt and Jeremy had gone away for the weekend to watch football. She started her way down the stairs, while tying up her hair, when she felt her phone vibrating over and over. She answered her phone.

"Hey Stephan" Elena chirped "I was just thinking about you" She smiled,

"Elena? I've done something horrible" Stephan said clearly holding back tears "You'll never forgive me, oh I'm so hopeless!"

"What's going on?" Elena questioned, worried, had something happened to Damon, Caroline or Bonnie?

Stephan bursts through the door crying this time "I killed him! I can't believe I killed him, well I can, but I shouldn't have let myself start in the first place!" Stephan was frantic,

"What's going on!" Elena demanded. Then at that moment Damon bursts in the door, sadness in his eyes,

"Stephan's on human blood again, that's what" Damon said quietly, trying not to make eye contact with Elena.

"Wait, what happened?!" Elena demanded, she was terrified that he was off the rails again, and that she couldn't do anything to stop it,

"Not what, but who Elena" Damon said, he was clearly being serious, and at that moment Stephan bursts,

"I Killed Jeremy!" He shouted

Elena was frozen, she couldn't move, she couldn't speak, she couldn't breathe. All she could think was 'how dare I'. Jeremy was her brother and therefore her responsibility, and she let a fucking ripper get to him?!

"get out" Elena finally managed to whisper

"Elena," Damon pleaded, he felt guilty for his brother, Damon knew how much Elena meant to him

"I said get out!" Elena said in a still quiet, but harsh tone. She couldn't look at them

"ok, let's go" Damon said quietly as he motioned for his brother to come. As the slowly started to leave Stephan turned around and ran to Elena

"I feel horrible, I am a blood sucking dick who took advantage of your brother, I am a killer! I should be killed myself, actually you know what? kill me right now Elena, KILL ME!" Stephan yelled crying on his knees "please" he pleaded, honesty and horror in his eyes.

"what part of get out DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND!?" Elena screamed, and with that she picked up Stephan and Damon and threw them out the window.

"I NEVER WANT TO SEE EITHER OF YOU AGAIN! YOU HEAR ME, HE WAS THE ONLY FAMILY I HAD LEFT, I WOULD'VE STOPPED YOU! do you know what the worst part is? it's that you probably had fun ripping his defenselessness body to shreds" Elena tried to rub that last part in as deep as she could, and then she shut the curtains with a grunt. Then she sat in the corner of the room and cried.
