The Monster Who Ate My Heart

Elena's POV

Dear diary,

It has been two weeks since my breakup with Stefan and I'm still not over it. I guess it will take some time until I'll actually be over it. Even after two weeks, I still can't believe he's a vampire. Part of me wishes I could forget all about it, wishes we could start anew. But the other part of me refuses to let go of the newfound truth. I loved Stefan, and maybe I still do, even now, but it isn't enough to bring us back together. I know he loves me as much as I love him, but my mind seems to refuse to accept the truth. I found out two days ago that Stefan had decided to leave Mystic Falls. I don't know how I feel about. Disappointed, sad, even more heartbroken or glad. I guess it is a bit of everything. Part of me had hoped he wouldn't give up so easily, but the other just wished he would live his life with someone who'd love him for everything he was… someone he could live with for an eternity. At the same time, I was hoping I would be able to move on and maybe find someone else. I don't know. But right now, I need a walk.

I was walking alone on an empty path. There was no one around, just like I was hoping. I needed to be alone to my thoughts and with someone around me, it would've been difficult. I looked down as I walked, but at some point, I felt an intense gaze on me, eyes watching me, but when I raised my head to look around, there was no one to be seen. There was no sign that there had been someone. I convinced myself it was paranoia before falling, once again into my thoughts. How I missed the days when my only concern was my relationship with Matt… the days life was much simpler.

I was lost in my thoughts, and probably wasn't looking because I soon I slammed into something warm and solid. Not something, someone. I took a few steps back and looked up, only to see a man with brown eyes and a shark smile on his face looking at me.

"I'm-I'm sorry." I stuttered, embarrassed. "I'm sorry." I tried again, and to my own surprise, the words came out better this time. "I didn't see you, I don't know where I was looking or what I was thinking about." I said as I mentally scolded myself. It probably sounded like a bad apology, but I couldn't tell him I was still thinking about my ex and not watching where I was going.

He only titled his head in response though. "What's your name?" He asked.

"Elena Gilbert." I said quickly.

"Dick Roman." He introduced himself.

"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Roman." I said with a smile. Normally, I wouldn't have addressed him formally, but he was older than me and not quite the ordinary guy, considering the way he was dressed, which was quite formal, in a black suit, a red tie and black pants. However, I had to admit, he was good-looking. Maybe too good-looking. I couldn't help but wonder what could he be doing here though. Then my thoughts drifted to the day I met Stefan nearby the Mystic Falls cemetery. It had been similar to this. I remembered the first thing I asked Stefan was 'were you following me?'… I probably had been impolite, but it just seemed weird to meet him nearby a cemetery. And now it seemed even weirder, knowing he was a vampire. But as I felt Dick's intense gaze one me, I realized I had completely forgotten about the current situation and immediately turned my attention back to him. I looked up to see him watching me closely. Maybe I was wrong, but there was something in his eyes, maybe amusement? Then there was also a questioning look there. I sighed.

"Sorry, I just…I'm totally awkward today, I'm sorry, I-" I started apologizing again, but he interrupted me.

"Don't worry." He said calmly with a smile. "I assume you have some very pressing things to think about." He said with another one of those shark smiles.

"Umm…yeah, I'm going through a difficult, stormy, confusing period." I said with a smile. I didn't want to give too many details to a stranger, but his question took me by surprise. I wasn't sure what to tell him.

He simply nodded, not asking any more questions. I had to hold back a sigh of relief, since I was grateful he didn't.

But for some reason, I found myself wanting to stay in his presence longer, and so I asked him quickly, "So, what are you doing here?"

"Business. I'm supposed to meet someone here in about, half an hour." He replied, his voice having nothing but certainty in it.

"Oh." I said simply. I mentally yelled at myself for not being able to come up with a smarter reply. "I should go then. I don't want to keep you from meeting whoever it is you're meeting." I said, trying to put on my best fake smile, but it seemed like no matter how good that fake smile had become lately, Mr. Roman could still see right through it.

"Do you live here?" He asked as he looked at me.

"Yeah." I said. I was ready to leave, but his question took me by surprise. Again. "I've lived here my entire life." I continued. He nodded slightly. "What about you?" I asked him. I was sure he wasn't from Mystic Falls, otherwise I would've met him at least once before.

"Not from around here." He said with another shark smile. He was pointing out the obvious, and for some reason, I was under the impression he was quite aware of that. "But I have some business in this town," He spoke again, his tone calm and confident "and I was hoping you could show me around." He continued, his voice apparently hopeful. It sounded like a question and an answer at the same time. I considered it for a minute, he was a stranger and for all I knew now, he could be anything. But I looked at his hands and there was no ring there, so maybe he wasn't a vampire. I was probably going to test it anyway, see if he had any reaction to blood. I didn't feel like getting involved in any way with another vampire or with another supernatural creature, if there were others. At the same time however, I wanted to hang out with Mr. Roman. He seemed like a nice guy and a person I'd enjoy being around. So I made up my mind.

"Yeah, sure." I said with a smile.

He nodded and returned the smile. "Meet me again tomorrow in this exact spot at 10 AM…." He said, confidence filling his voice once again, but then he continued with a question "unless you have something else to do?"

"No, tomorrow is Sunday. I don't have school or anything." I replied. I was somewhat grateful it was Sunday, but at the same time, I wondered if he would've accepted at a different time, if I was indeed at school.

But he just nodded and smiled at me before checking his phone and titling his head a little. For a moment, he seemed a bit confused as he stared at his phone screen, but then he was back to his confident look as he raised his head to look at me.

"I should go." I said as I took a step back at the sight of his intense gaze. There was something in the way he looked that demanded respect and emanated power. He nodded approvingly, the same shark smile on his face as before. But as I turned to leave, I heard his voice

"No sooner, no later than 10 AM, Miss Gilbert." He said to me, his voice confident. There was no questioning him, considering the tone of his voice, but he wasn't my boss.

"I'll try." I said to him with a small smile before heading away. I turned my back on him and headed back into the direction I came from, while he walked in the opposite one. I glanced behind, hoping I would see his face again and at the same time that I wouldn't have to meet his intense gaze again. And while I couldn't decide whether I should say fortunately or unfortunately, he didn't turn to glance back at me. He just continued walking as if he didn't have anything better to do. I looked forward again, afraid I'd eventually hit a tree, but I didn't look forward for too long as the temptation to look at him again kept growing. Eventually, I stopped walking and turned completely to look at him. He still hadn't turned around and didn't seem to have any intention to. Instead, he just walked and, if I didn't know better, I would've said he was admiring the landscape. And he seemed to be quite intrigued by it as he kept looking around. Had he never seen a park before? I rolled my eyes at the stupid thought and turned away, finding the strength to take my eyes off him as he walked away.

Dick's POV

I had arrived in the small town called Mystic Falls. It was just what I expected it to be so far. Small town. Ordinary humans. Not really a town I would've liked to stay in, but it was a perfect place for my kind to occupy. It was small and unpopular. If they would be subtle, nobody would notice anything in this town. And even if there was to be strange activity, it wouldn't make it to the papers given this town's popularity, unless they went off the rails seriously. But that was something that wasn't going to happen. I was here to make sure of it.

In the morning I called Edgar and told him to meet me in what I believed was the park of this town to inform him of the strategy we'll be acting on.

I got out of my limousine and headed into the park, which was, by all means, quite different from what I was used to. As I walked, I looked around and listened to see if there were any humans around, but despite the fact it was Saturday and as far as I knew, they enjoyed Saturday morning walks, there was no one to be seen around. At some point I heard the footsteps of a human on a path and turned to see a girl walking alone, seemingly lost in her thoughts. I stopped walking and watched her from a distance; I noticed she rarely looked up and seemed very… thoughtful and focused on whatever she was thinking about. At some point, she stopped and looked around, her eyes looking carefully for something or someone.

Normally, I wouldn't have used my super-speed, but she would've seen me if I hadn't and considering how cautious she seemed, I preferred not to raise suspicions. In an instant, I was out of her sight without the slightest effort.

I remained out of sight and waited until I heard her footsteps again, heading into the same direction she had earlier. She took longer than I expected to look around. If I hadn't known better, I would've said she was looking out for something… unnatural. But I doubted that besides me and my kind there was anything else unnatural in this town. Still, I considered it was best if I knew more about it before actually making a move, and this girl seemed to be the right person to ask. While I couldn't care less about her personal reasons, I was quite curious to hear what she had been so cautious about earlier.

I took the advantage of her distraction and used my supernatural speed to appear a short distance away from her, but she kept walking, obviously not noticing she was just about to bump into me. Not until she did, anyway. I didn't even move when she slammed into me, but she seemed to be quite startled as she took a few steps back. I simply smiled at her.

"I'm-I'm sorry." She stuttered, obviously embarrassed with herself and probably with the fact that she wasn't looking. "I'm sorry." She said again, and I was under the impression she was trying to sound different this time, less… scared and embarrassed. "I didn't see you, I don't know where I was looking or what I was thinking about." She spoke again, still trying to excuse her lack of attention. I could tell, however, that she was lying, especially about the last part. I assumed she knew very well what she was thinking about, otherwise she wouldn't have walked this much, lost in her thoughts without actually knowing what her thoughts were about. I wasn't going to elaborate on the subject though, or at least not yet.

I titled my head slightly and asked, "What's your name?"

"Elena Gilbert." She said quickly. I had the feeling she was glad I changed the subject.

"Dick Roman." I introduced myself with another smile. I was somewhat surprised that she didn't know who I was, since I had appeared on TV before. But the least she knew, the better, or at least for now.

"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Roman." She said as she returned the smile. It seemed whole-hearted, but I didn't care. I was just about to tell her to call me 'Dick' when I noticed she was… studying me. Checking me out, more exactly. I had to hold back a chuckle as I noticed her cheeks turning a bright shade of pink. I couldn't not notice her expression change as her thoughts drifted to something else once again. I couldn't tell whether she was thinking about me or something else though, so I just kept watching her closely. At some point I noticed she snapped out of it and looked back at me.

I was amused, but at the same time, I couldn't help my curiosity but wonder what she had been thinking about that was so pressing. Especially since she seemed to be a young girl. I heard her sigh softly before she spoke

"Sorry, I just…I'm totally awkward today, I'm sorry, I-" She started apologizing. Again. I interrupted her without second thoughts. Apologizes never meant anything to me, not even coming from one of my own kind. Nevertheless, this girl didn't seem to stop apologizing, so I just decided to reassure her. Maybe that way I'd be able to get something out of her.

"Don't worry." I said calmly with a small smile, however, I couldn't help but add "I assume you have some very pressing things to think about."

I waited for her reaction. It was surprise and maybe confusion.

"Umm…yeah, I'm going through a difficult, stormy, confusing period." She replied, apparently struggling to find a good response. Once again, she wasn't telling me the truth and her heartbeat confirmed that. I assumed she was probably waiting for me to ask her something, so I didn't. Instead, I only nodded and prepared to walk away when I heard her voice.

"So, what are you doing here?" She asked. She spoke quickly, as if to stop me from walking away.

"Business." I said casually. "I'm supposed to meet someone here in about half an hour." I continued in my usual confident tone.

"Oh." Was all she said. I wasn't sure whether I was surprised or simply amused of her rather short reply. I could, however, tell by the look in her eyes that she was somewhat embarrassed. "I should go then. I don't want to keep you from meeting whoever it is you're meeting." She said again, and despite her best efforts to keep her voice neutral, I realized she was disappointed. She put on a wide smile and while I had to admit it was good, it wasn't good enough to fool me. Most humans, especially ordinary humans aren't usually this good at fake smiles, but nevertheless, she was surprisingly good at it. I assumed she did it on a daily basis since it seemed quite… natural. I saw right through her, though and decided to lighten up her mood. Maybe she would be of use to me. She was ready to leave, but I stopped her.

"Do you live here?" I asked her, once again observing her carefully.

"Yes." She said, momentarily surprised with my question. "I've lived here my entire life." She continued. I nodded, satisfied with her answer. If this Elena Gilbert had lived here until now, she had to know the town like the back of her hand. She could be very useful. "What about you?" She asked. I was somewhat taken aback by her question. Did humans usually meet someone and try to strike up a conversation with them or was it just this girl?

"Not from around here." I replied with a smile. I realized she was slightly irritated with my response and I also knew why. I knew I had given her a response she already knew. But like she apparently didn't feel like telling me certain things, I didn't feel like telling her most things about me. Like I had previously said, the least she knew, the better. "But I have some business in this town," I spoke again, keeping my tone calm and confident as usual. "and I was hoping you could show me around." I continued, putting a normal amount of hopefulness in her voice. I made it sound more like a question, even though it was all but a question. I wasn't going to take 'no' as an answer.

I observed her as she contemplated her decision. I could see doubt in her eyes as she glanced at me every now and then, but at the same time, I could tell she wanted to accept it. After a few minutes, she seemed to have made up her mind.

"Yeah, sure." She said with a small nod and a smile.

I was pleased with her answer, so I returned the smile. "Meet me again tomorrow in this exact spot at 10 AM…." I said confidently, but then I continued with a question that, again, only had one answer, "unless you have something else to do?"

"No, tomorrow is Sunday. I don't have school or anything." She said, her thoughts drifting to something else for a moment.

I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket and I took it out. I titled my head a little and stared at the phone screen for a short while, somewhat confused with it. In Purgatory, there were no phones and while I did know how to use the basic functions, I wasn't familiar with most of the rest. I raised my head to look at the human standing in front of me.

"I should go." She said as I looked at her intensely. I looked at her in the same way I usually did and there was something in his face, something between fear and surprise as I did. I smiled and nodded approvingly to her affirmation.

"No sooner, no later than 10 AM, Miss Gilbert." I said to her just as she turned to leave. I made sure it didn't sound like a choice or a question.

"I'll try." She said with a small smile, but the look in her eyes was slightly challenging. Her reaction took me by surprise, as it wasn't exactly what I had expected, but I didn't let it show. She turned around and walked into the direction I thought she came from. I stood there for a moment, watching her before I turned away and headed towards the place I was supposed to meet up with Edgar. While I didn't turn to look at the human girl walking away, I knew, for a fact, that she did. I could feel her eyes on me, and then for a few minutes I no longer did. It didn't take long until I heard her footsteps slowing down and eventually stopping before I felt her eyes on me again. I chuckled softly to myself, even though I was somewhat surprise with her reactions. I never turned around to look at her though and instead, I continued walking and looking around, admiring this park. At some point, I heard the human girl starting to walk again all of the sudden and this time she didn't look back.

So, this is my first crossover fanfic :D What do you think? I tried my best to keep both Dick and Elena as they are in the shows, keep their original personalities, but I'm not sure if I managed to do it xD I really really need your opinion on this, so please please review ^_^

Anyway, one of my friends asked me to write it, so I did and it's based on a video I made, I'll put the link below ;) Also this one of the few times I wrote from the 1st POV and again I'm not really sure if I did it good or not. I'd appreciate your opinions, whether they are good or bad :) Also, I would very much appreciate if you let me know if you find grammar mistakes.
