Tell Me Why
Chapter One- Baby Brother
Someday, someone will walk into your life & make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else
Elena Gilbert was feeling awfully giddy as she made her way to the Salvatore Boarding house where her best friend- Damon Salvatore- resided. One of her other friends, Caroline Forbes, had recently called her to tell her how her boyfriend Tyler, had finally proposed. Elena was ecstatic and not even the constant pelting of rain against the windows of the houses in Mystic Falls could bring her down.
Smiling, Elena opened the front door of the boarding house and made her way to Damon's room, and flung the door open to an unexpected sight.
Damon was running around the room, a phone glued to his ear, talking to someone in rapid Italian. Elena watched as he ran around, taking random clothes out of his closet and drawers and throwing them into the half-full suitcase laying open on his unmade bed. As he caught sight of her, he quickly stopped to smile before running to his bed to zip up his suitcase. Elena watched, eyebrows raised, as he stepped out the door, still blabbering into his phone. He sounded worried and mad. After a few minutes, he removed the phone from his ear and stuffed it into his pocket.
"Elena!" he breathed, sounding relieved, leaning in to give her a quick hug. He pulled back and studied Elena's questioning look.
Damon sighed, "I have to leave, Elena."
Elena grimaced, eyebrows raised, "What? Why?"
Damon scratched his head, looking into her eyes, "Well, Grandma Salvatore back in Italy passed away. She left all her fortune to me and my baby brother. I have to go deal… with matters."
A worried look crept upon Elena's face as she nodded, "I'm so sorry, you go, fix stuff up."
Damon smirked, sadly, "Don't be sorry, it wasn't your fault. Uh, there is a problem though…" he sighed.
"What's wrong?" Elena asked still concerned.
Damon's eyebrows furrowed, "Well, the thing is, my brother was supposed to come stay here, this month…and I have to leave."
Elena nodded indifferently, she didn't know much about Damon's little brother. She'd never seen a picture and Damon hardly ever mentioned him. All she knew was that he was living with some Uncle Zach in New York, "Uh…Stephen…?"
Damon shook his head, "Stefan…uh," he stepped closer to her, clasping her hands in his, "Since I won't be here…promise, promise, Elena, that you'll take care of him, make sure he eats and stuff. I'm just gone for two weeks. Then I'll be back. Please, Elena." He whispered, sounding worried.
Elena's eyes turned into the size of golf balls, "What do you mean, Damon, 'Make sure he eats and stuff'? He's a baby! Do you think I'd leave him here alone?"
A confused look shot across Damon's face, "What baby- ooh!" he smirked, "Yes, yes, Baby Stefan." He laughed, "Take care of him. He'll be getting here in about an hour…by 5:00 for sure. My plane takes off at 5:30 so; call me if there are any…issues." He smirked
Elena smiled brightly, "Yes! I'll bring my stuff for the next two weeks here and it'll all be okay!"
Damon smiled, trying to hide his laughter. He'd get a good laugh about this later. He went outside and climbed into his car.
Elena watched as he revved the car onto the drive way, window down, waving, "Love you, Elena!" he yelled before zooming away.
She smiled and gazed after the car.
"Well, best go get my stuff." She said to herself.
She made her way home and got enough stuff for two weeks and left a voicemail on her little brother –Jeremy's- phone, telling him where she'd be. Then she called Bonnie and Caroline who both trilled at the idea of baby Salvatore, Caroline even making her promise that she'd bring him to see her.
Elena thought to herself as she made her way to the Salvatore Boarding House and picked a random guest room for herself. She wondered who'd bring the baby. How could Damon and 'Uncle Zach' trust a random stranger with the baby? Somebody would probably come drop him off or something...
In midst of her musing, the doorbell rang.
Elena paused, anxiety rushing through her before she ran downstairs.
Upon reaching the bottom of the flight of stairs, she all but booked it to the front door and flung the door open, panting.
The first thing she saw where his forest green eyes.
She adverted her gaze from his eyes to the man in front of her. He stood there, nice and tall, probably her age, no more, eyebrows furrowed. Little diamond-like droplets of rain sparkled in his blonde-brown hair. He was broad chested and dressed in a simple burgundy V-Neck and jeans.
She bit her lip, craning her neck to look behind him, expecting to see a baby carriage or something. Instead, all she saw were suitcases.
The man raised his eyebrows, "Uhmm.."
She turned to look at him, her eyes wide.
He held out his hand, smiling, "Hey."
Elena slowly moved her gaze to the man's outstretched hand and just stared at it until he let it drop, awkwardly to his side.
Elena raised a brow and looked back at the mystery man's face, "Where is the baby?"
The man's eyes furrowed, "Uh, baby?"
Elena nodded, "Yes, b-a-b-y." she made a motion of rocking an imaginary baby back and fourth with her arms.
The man rolled his eyes, "Iknowwhat a baby is."
Elena crossed her arms, "Good. Now where is it?"
He raised an eyebrow, "Where is what?"
Elena huffed, her eyes popping wide in anger, "The baby! Where is the baby?"
The man's eyes flashed with annoyance as he flung his hangs in the air, "What goddamn baby?"
Elena shook her head, more and more annoyed by the second, "Steph- Stefan!"
"Yes?"
Elena rolled her eyes, "What 'yes' ? Where's the baby? Baby Stefan? Damon's baby brother!"
A confused, annoyed look shot across his face, "I AM Damon's 'baby brother'!"
Elena's eyes narrowed, "You don't look like a baby."
He rolled his eyes, "Yeah...I'm kinda-not."
Elena shook her head, "For all I know, you could be...a rapist or something!"
The man...Stefan or so he said, huffed before reaching into his back pocket and pulling out an iPhone. He dialed a number and held the phone to his ear while holding up a single finger towards Elena in a silent 'Shut Up'.
"His flight is going to leave in fifteen minutes!" he groaned.
Elena nodded slowly, the information was correct...
A relived look shot across his face as someone picked up n the other end, "Damon! You jerk!" He laughed into the phone, "Yea...I figured. Who is the girl? This is Elena Gilbert, your absolute best friend? Ah, you're going to have to make her agree, she convinced I'm a rapist or something. Yea, okay, bye."
He then disconnected and looked up at Elena, "He's going to text you." he said, narrowing his eyes.
And sure enough, her phone buzzed with a text from Damon saying that this was indeed, Stefan.
Elena tucked the phone back in her pocket, nervously looking up at Stefan.
Stefan grinned, "Happy now Miss. Gilbert?"
She rolled her eyes, "You're not what I was expecting..."
Stefan just laughed, coming in, pulling his suitcases behind him.
Once in, he turned to look at her, "What, no apologies?" he grinned.
Elena crossed her arms, "Yea...sorry."
Stefan nodded, "Better." as he ran upstairs, "Now," he yelled, "What room do I get?"
Elena huffed. Great. Ah- maz- ing.
