I will never let you fall,
I'll stand up with you forever,
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

Chapter Two: Caught In The Act
"Oh crap" Caroline sighed and looked at her mom who was getting out of her car right now with a confused look on her face
"Stefan Salvatore, what are you doing here?" She asked looking directly at Stefan
"Walking Caroline home from the carnival Sheriff" Stefan said back calmly as if nothing had happened
"…Okay, well, thank you" She said, Caroline was relived that for once her mother didn't unleash an interrogation on someone that she had just been kissing
"No problem Sheriff" Stefan said "Goodnight Caroline" Stefan said to her
"Goodnight" Caroline sighed and once Stefan was gone, Caroline walked up the drive way with her mother
"What was that about? I thought Stefan and Elena were-"
"Yeah, they are mom, it was a mistake" Caroline said, hoping her mother would drop the subject now
"You don't kiss someone by mistake Caroline" Her mother said
"He kissed me, and yes, it was a mistake. A huge mistake" Caroline said and waited for her mother to open the door
"Alright" Her mother sighed and walked into the house and turned around to see Caroline not walking inside "…What are you doing? Come inside Caroline" She said
Hoping that her mother's invitation worked, she tried to put her foot forward, and it finally worked. She was able to walk inside. Once she was inside, she was going to go right upstairs and to sleep, but just then the house phone rang.
"Hello?" Her mother answered "…Caroline, it's Matt" Her Mom said and handed the phone to her
Great, could this day get anymore confusing; Caroline thought to herself and finally got the guts to talk to Matt.
"Hey Matt" Caroline answered
"Hey" Matt said "You feeling okay? You were acting really weird at the carnival and-"
"I'm fine Matt" Caroline interrupted "I'm just…tired, talk to you tomorrow?"
"Yeah, okay, Bye" He said and hung up
"Bye" Caroline sighed and put the phone down and ran up to her room.
She shut the door behind her and was almost scared to death to see Stefan sitting there in her window.
"You were invited in before?" Caroline asked
"Yep" Stefan said and stepped into her room now and Caroline turned the light on, she couls see in the dark, but she preferred the light still
"Why are you here Stefan?" Caroline asked
"I just wanted to say that, so you don't feel like your hiding anything from Elena…I told Elena I kissed you" Stefan said
"Stefan, I kissed you the first time, I deserve some of her hatred" Caroline sighed and plopped down on her bed "I have to tell Matt now tomorrow, I can't lie to him, plus he'd find out sooner or later now that Elena knows. Was she mad at me?"
"Elena? No. She was mad at me, not you Caroline." Stefan said "I promised to protect you, even if that means I have to protect you from Elena, I won't let anything happen to you"
"Thanks Stefan, but I can handle Elena. We've had fights before, just never usually over guys" Caroline sighed "She didn't break up with you, did she?" Caroline asked feeling guilty now, it was just…two kisses, it would never happen again, no matter how badly she wanted to kiss Stefan again and again, there was still Elena and Matt to think about
"Yeah, she did" Stefan sighed
"Oh my god, I'm sorry Stefan" Caroline sighed "Just let me talk to Elena and I can totally fix this, Elena and Matt used to break up a lot and if I can fix them, I can fix you too" Caroline said and started looking for her cell phone to call Elena
"No, Caroline, let her be" Stefan said and grabbed both of her hands so she would stop looking "Let her cool off for tonight, okay?"
"…Okay" Caroline sighed and Stefan slowly let go of her hands and started walking towards the window again "So…are you gonna teach me how to fight?"
"Tomorrow night" Stefan said turning around to face Caroline "I promise"
"Okay" Caroline said and gave a small smile "Goodnight Stefan"
"Goodnight Caroline" Stefan said and gave her a small smile back and in the blink of an eye was gone out her window.
Caroline got up and shut the window and got ready for bed. She didn't want anymore surprise visitors for the night, too much action for one day. She pulled the curtains shut so she wouldn't burn alive when the sun came up and she got ready for bed.
The next day, after hiding from the sun all day, Caroline was getting ready to go out and go talk to Elena now that it was finally dark out, but then someone was knocking on her door. She ran and answered the door and saw Bonnie standing there.
"Bonnie?" Caroline asked confused "I thought after last night that you would-"
"Hate you?" Bonnie asked "No, I don't. It's not your fault Caroline. I told Damon to give you the blood so you would heal in the hospital and live and Katherine killed you, there was nothing I could do about it" Bonnie sighed
"…Oh" Caroline said
"I'm not staying, I just came here to give you this" Bonnie said and handed Caroline a ring that looked similar to Stefan and Damon's ring, but it was different, it looked more…girly.
"What is it?" Caroline asked
"Well, once I got over you being a vampire last night, I went home and started going through all of Emily's spell books and finally found one that had the spell in it that she used to curse Damon, Stefan, and Katherine's rings years ago so that they could come out in the daylight. So, I made this ring for you, so you can have a somewhat normal undead life" Bonnie sighed
"…Wow" Caroline said and put the ring on and hugged Bonnie tightly "Thanks Bonnie!"
"Caroline…can't breathe" Bonnie gasped
"Sorry!" Caroline said and let go of Bonnie, "I'm still getting used to that"
"it's okay" Bonnie smiled "Well, I'm gonna go. I'll see you around Caroline, okay?"
"Okay" Caroline smiled "Thank you Bonnie"
"No problem" Bonnie said and walked away from the door and down to her car.
Once Bonnie was gone, Caroline walked out the door, now she wanted to tell Stefan that she could finally come out in the daylight like him and Damon and be somewhat normal. She would go talk to Elena after she showed off the ring now. She sped off towards the Boarding House, still getting used to her new vampire speed and was at the front door in no time. She knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer, and Caroline's smile fell off of her face when Damon answered the door with a glass of scotch in hand.
"Blondie, what can I do for you?" Damon asked
"Where's Stefan?" Caroline asked
"Out in town, something about Katherine, why?" Damon asked and Caroline heard giggling in the house
"Who's here?" Caroline asked
"A very drunk and happy Elena" Damon said with a smirk
"Oh" Caroline said "Well…do you know where Stefan went then?" Caroline asked
"Mystic Grill" Damon said "And don't tell him about Elena being here, he doesn't know"
"Give me one reason why I shouldn't tell him" Caroline said
"One, He'll be very, very pissed off; Two, I promised to keep your little secret from Elena, and I did, Stefan told her, not me; And three" Damon said and whispering now so that only Caroline could hear "If you want Stefan as bad as I want Elena, then you'll be keeping them apart, not pushing them together. And I know you want Stefan all too yourself, you have since he came to Mystic Falls" Damon said with a smirk
"…Fine" Caroline huffed "I won't tell him. Bye Damon"
"Bye Blondie" Damon said and shut the door and Caroline took off towards the Mystic Grill, thinking about what Damon had just told her.
