Walking around in school dressed in stylishly horizontally ripped skinny leg black jeans that the rips went all the way down her legs, about an inch or so apart, but some rips were covered by black lacey material. She paired it with black converse and a medium bright blue full tilt tank top that flowed loosely down her body and had a black London flag design on it.

Her hair was in long, loose ringlets curling away from her face; her bangs swooped to the side. She saw Jeremy and Stefan talking by his locker and smiled, walking up to them.

"Hello boys."

"Hey Shay. You know, it's weird at how much you look like Elena with your brown hair." Jeremy told her. Shaylee rolled her eyes. She looked nothing like Elena. She had bright, brilliant dark medium blue eyes, and lighter skin than Elena did. In addition, she had better style.

"Yeah?" Shay asked sarcastically, raising her eyebrows like she was really interested. "You know what's more weird? Having a look-a-like out there impersonating me and nobody telling me about it for months."

Stefan chuckled and wrapped an arm around her waist, squeezing softly. Jeremy chuckled.

"So this vervain…it protects me from compulsion?" Jeremy asked.

"No. Not really." Shaylee said with the utmost sincerity, though everyone knew she was being sarcastic.

Stefan out a laughing breath and shook his head at shay.

"It's toxic to Vampires." He went on explaining.

"You mean, like poison?"

"Nope. Nothing like that." Shay commented. Stefan threw her a look, as did Jeremy. Shay held her hands up in defense and the two laughed.

"Yes, it's very poisonous. It'll keep them out of your head." Stefan explained, motioning to his head, where his hair was gelled up in a very 'Edward Cullen' sort of style, but his hair was much better in the first movie.

"Why vervain?" Jeremy asked confused. Stefan shrugged.

"I don't know."

"Wow! A question 'Mr. Has-all-the-answers' doesn't know!" Shay commented sarcastically.

"Says 'Ms. Fluent-in-sarcasm-and-nothing-else' girl." Stefan said pointedly, tilting his head to the side to make his point. Shay met his eyes with a playful glare, making Jeremy laugh.

"Wait, so like a stake to the heart?" Jeremy asked. Stefan nodded.

"Yeah, but it has to be wooden." Stefan explained.

"You know, you're awfully confident in yourself if you're telling me all the ways I could kill you." Jeremy pointed out, smirking. Stefan rolled his eyes.

"Please don't act like your sister. The nice 5 months was a good break." Stefan commented, earning a jaw drop from Shay and a playful hit to his arm. Hey, what could Stefan say? She brought out the best in him. It was always fun and games usually with them.

"If I thought you wanted to kill me, we'd be having a much different conversation." Stefan explained. Jeremy nodded.

"Yeah…Damon is the one who deserves it." Jeremy commented.

Shay looked at Jeremy curiously, worried. He was not going to go after Damon, was he? He could not be that stupid…could he? No, of course he could! This was her baby brother who slept with Vicky…and hooked up with a vampire.

"Hey, I want you to forget about Damon. He is a hundred times stronger than you and he is not stable. You've gotta move forward." Stefan explained to Jeremy.

However, Jeremy shook his head. How could he?

"I was killed bye a vampire and brought back to life with a magical ring, how can I?"

"Right, well-" Stefan started, looking behind him, and then hurried with the rest he was about to say.

"You see, today we have a nice little distraction courtesy of the Slave drive Elena!" Stefan told Jeremy, making Shay laugh.

"Hello Elena!" Stefan greeted, wrapping his arm around her waist, kissing her cheek.

"Hey Um…Jeremy-" Elena started, looking nervous, holding her clipboard.

"Yeah yeah." Jeremy told her, rolling his eyes, knowing that she was about to nag him about something.

"I set up the goldfish toss, all 300 goldfish. It's going to be Epic." He said sarcastically, closing his locker, and starting to walk away.

Stefan cleared his throat, and Elena and Shay sighed, Elena leaned against the lockers.

"Don't worry. He's going to be fine." Stefan reassured them. "He's just been through a little bit of an ordeal."

Elena nodded, sighing.

"I was just hoping this carnival would reel him back into the land of high school teenager." Elena said honestly.

Shay scoffed a laugh and Stefan looked at her, faking shocked.

"So is that what we're doing?" Stefan asked Elena curiously.

"Yeah, since we so obviously do normality, ordinary school teenager all the time." Shay said sarcastically.

Stefan rolled his eyes, clasping his hands together.

"Oh, and there is that sarcasm that I so love so much." Stefan said sarcastically.

Shay looked up at Stefan, raising her eyebrows pointedly.

"Now look who's doing the sarcasm." Shay pointed out. Stefan looked at her shocked, and shay dropped her jaw and raising her eyebrows, saying a silent 'ah.' She got him.

Shay and Stefan chuckled.

"Alright you two. Elena, put me to work later. I'm off." Shay told them, turning to walk away.

Elena frowned at her.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Elena called confused, and slightly angry.

First, Shay was flirting with her boyfriend right in front of her; Second, she seemed to make him smile more than she did. Third, she just got back into town, and everyone's acting like she never left. She left! In addition, it hurt everyone!

"A day without school? Yeah right. Like I'm actually going to spend it here." Shay said, rolling her eyes as she started walking backwards while talking to them.

"I just came in to turn in a paper. See you two love birds later!" Shay called, heading out of the doors.

Elena sighed. She was worried about her sister thought too, despite all the anger she had against her.

"So…are you mad at her, or concerned? I can't seem to tell…you keep switching." Stefan told Elena, brushing some hair behind her ear lovingly.

Elena sighed. "I'm worried about her Stefan. She…"

Then Elena realized that Stefan and Damon did not know what Shay had been threw.

"What? She's what?" Stefan asked, suddenly concerned for his best friend.

"Stefan…Jeremy's says she's been doing drugs." Elena explained.

That was the one thing she could tell him. She swore not to tell the two boys about David and what he did to her.

Stefan's eyes practically bugged out of his head. Shaylee Gilbert? Doing Drugs? The Shaylee Gilbert who would not go near them? Hated smelling cigarette smoke, and saying that people stuffing white shit up their nose would be better off just sniffing cancer from a tube?

"Drugs? Shaylee's been doing drugs?" Stefan asked shocked. Elena sighed and nodded, running a stressed hand threw her hair. She and her sister did that.

Stefan sighed and shook his head. "Alright, I'll deal with that later. But tonight…we're going to try to relax, ok?"

Elena nodded. But Stefan groaned after seeing her face.

"What now?"

"It's just…you, and Matt, and Caroline! You all treat her just like she never did anything wrong! You just…welcome her back with open arms! Even after, she left and caused us so much pain! It's not right!" Elena argued.

Stefan sighed. This was not going to end up well…two sisters fighting.


Shaylee walked out of the school and to her clunker of a car. She got in, and immediately got on her phone.

"Hey Ty, why do you sound out of breath?" Shay asked, confused as she heard some heaving on the other end.

"Just running with Mason. What's up?"

Shay sighed. "Oh, never mind. I can call later-"

"Tyler, just talk to her. I'm going to beat you anyway!" Mason called. Shay laughed. Tyler rolled his eyes.

"Hey, you wanna join us Shay?" Tyler asked. Shay groaned.

"You two sound pretty hardcore, and I'm just getting back into sports season."

"Ah Shay! It's ok. We'll go easy on you." Tyler mocked and Mason laughed. Shay narrowed her eyes.

"I'll be there in 15,"

Shaylee drove home and got dressed in black Nike Dri-fit running shorts that were short, but a little loose on her so they didn't stick to her legs like spandex, but still looked good. She paired them with white Nike air sneakers and a looser fitting v-neck t-shirt that was grey and had the Zumba sign on the upper left corner, going over her breast and a little bit of her stomach.

She walked into the house as the door was open and saw the two sweaty, dark haired, sexy as hell men. Tyler had his shirt off, and both were trying to catch their breath.

"Oh my goodness, did I just walk into heaven?" Shay asked smirking playfully.

"Hot, sexy, sweaty men? Did Santa get my wish list?" Shay mocked, causing the guys to laugh.

"Nice to see you too Shay." Mason told her, chuckling. Shay smiled and crinkled her nose cutely.

"So, you ready to get your ass kicked?" Tyler asked. Shaylee narrowed her eyes.

"Bring it." She dared the two.

Mason and Tyler sighed, shaking their heads.

"Oh, you don't know what you just asked for little girl." Mason told her, shaking his head.

"Oh, it is so on Gilbert!" Tyler threatened. Shay smirked and ran out the door, causing both boys to laugh as they ran after her.


6 miles later, Shaylee was completely wiped. The three of them ran into the house laughing their heads off, trying to catch their breath, all of them covered in sweat.

"Oh my god!" Shay gasped, panting, her hands grasping the circular table tightly, bending over and laying her head against it.

Both men laughed at her, but were panting just as hard.

Damon was in the other room with Ms. Lockwood and narrowed his eyes at Shay as she ran in, panting. Her toned legs were clearly tired, shaking slightly, but unnoticeable to the naked eye, and her chest was heaving.

Damon felt his blood running south as he saw her heaving chest, sweaty, and panting for breath. He had to force himself to look away. Luckily, Carol closed the doors.

"What was that, like 7?" Tyler asked, still trying to regain his breath as he raised his arms and put them behind his head, opening his chest to get more air.

Mason was still hunched over. Shay panted, starting to catch her breath as she inhaled deeply. She stripped off her shirt, revealing her black sports braw, and her very toned stomach.

"6. I don't count the last one." Mason told them, breathing deeply.

"You crawled it, you two!" Mason pointed out.

Tyler and Shay's jaws dropped.

"What?" Shay asked astounded.

"Think Grandma Lockwood actually passed you guys in her walker!" Mason announced chuckling, motioning a push with his hands.

"Alright. Whatever." Shay told him, rolling his eyes.

"Alright dude. Shoes off. My mom? Mood? Not good." Tyler explained to Mason.

Shaylee nodded. "Definitely not. She practically had a melt down when me and Tyler ran inside out of the rain."

Mason chuckled just as the double doors opened, revealing Carol and Damon.

Carol smiled at them.

"Nice run?"

"No." Shaylee commented, shaking her head, causing the boys to laugh.

Damon was practically gasping. Wow, she was completely gorgeous. Total athletics body. There was not even an inch of fat on her. Sweat was glistening off her body. Her…tight abs…long…toned legs.

But then he remembered what he did, and she fixed a glare on him. Safe to say, he didn't remember much about that night…only that he snapped Jeremy's neck.

"Hey Shay, why don't I give you a ride home. We should…talk." Damon told her, stressed.

Shay didn't even spare him a respectful smile.

"I'm good."

"No really, I insist." Damon told her.

"Yes Shay. You shouldn't be driving that car. It's not safe." Carol told her 'daughter' concerned.

Shay sighed and Damon gave her a pointed 'ha, I won' sort of look.

"Fine." Shaylee said with a fake smile, putting her shirt back on, disappointing Damon exponentially.

"I'll see you guys at the carnival tonight?" Shaylee asked. Tyler and Mason nodded as Shay smiled at them, heading out of the door.

Damon said goodbye to Mayor Lockwood and headed out after Shaylee who threw her bag in the back of her car that had the top down. She sat down, crossing her arms tightly, her lips pursed angrily.

"Oh Come on. You can't be mad at me forever." Damon told her rolling his eyes as he sat down in the car, closing the door.

Shaylee looked over at him, glaring. "Really? Try me."

Damon sighed and started up the car. "Look, I saw the ring. I knew he wouldn't die!"

Shaylee didn't say anything. That's what worried Damon the most. She was a yeller. Whenever they fought, he couldn't get her to shut up. She always had something to stay.

"Just drive." Shaylee commented, looking out the window.

After awhile, Shay frowned. They weren't going in the direction of her house.

"Damon." she complained. Damon smirked, continuing to look at the road.

"If you have a problem. You should have driven your own car." Damon pointed out. Shay let that go and decided not to deal with him at the moment.

The moment Damon drove up to the boarding house, Shaylee practically jumped out of the car. She marched up to the boarding house, trying her best to void Damon, and find Stefan.

"Stefan! Please tell me your not at the carnival with your slave-driver of a girlfriend!" Shay called annoyed, walking into the living room.

"Nope. Not home." Damon told her, widening his eyes slightly, doing the 'eye thing.'

Shay rolled her eyes and collapsed down onto the couch, crossing her arms and crossing her right leg over her left.

"Why such the sourpuss this lovely morning?" Damon asked sarcastically, pouring himself a glass of bourbon.

"Oh I don't know. You kiss me, say you love me while your in love with my sister, and oh! That's right! You killed my brother." Shay said, dryly on the end, never once looking in his direction.

"Is that the subtle sounds of sarcasm I here? No. that must be wrong. Shaylee is out at the Carnival helping her sister." Stefan spoke, walking into the room. Shaylee rolled her eyes.

"Care for a glass?" Damon asked Stefan. Stefan scoffed.

"No. Thank you. It's a little early for me."

"I feel the same way. It's a little early in the day for me to have to talk to Damon. I was thinking around…oh…." Shay pretended to think.

"I'm thinking…13 o'clock. Sound good?" Shay asked Damon, smirking.

Damon threw her a glare.

"You are soo original." He said, emphasizing Soo, with his eyes and eyebrows.

"Why'd you choose 13 o'clock?" Damon asked. Shay threw him a glance as Stefan watch the scene in front of him with interest and amusement.

"Are you seriously asking me why I chose a number?" Shay asked annoyed. Damon shrugged.

"Hey, it got you talking to me." He pointed out, raising the glass in her direction.

"Ok Damon. I chose the number 13 instead of never o'clock because never o'clock is just so over done, and because when that 12 rolls around, you will still be staring at the clock and it just…skips! Right over it." Shay said smirking. "And your left starring at the clock until it rolls around again, leaving me, free of you while you wait like an idiot."

Damon narrowed his eyes at her.

"Sure you don't want any Stefan?" Damon asked, swirling his glass. Shay rolled her eyes as she saw that it was not Bourbon, and it was really blood.

"I'm just glad that's a blood bag and not a sorority girl…supplying your dinner" Stefan commented.

Damon smirked. "Well, if Shaylee doesn't mind…lending out a vein of two."

Shaylee narrowed her eyes in a glare.

"With that said." Shay started, clearly annoyed. "Stefan. Will you drive me back to the Lockwood's so I can get my car?"

Stefan smiled and nodded. "Absolutely."


At the Carnival, Shaylee was dressed in her black ripped skinny leg jeans from earlier that day, and her loose tank top that flowed down her body. But she added her worn leather Jacket for warmth.

Her once perfectly curled hair now was her natural waves because she took a shower before she came.

"Alright, so the ring toss is out of Bart and Homer dolls, and Team Jacob Tee's." Shay informed Elena, who was walking around, surveying the Carnival with her clipboard.

"Alright, I can grab some from the science booth. Also, we lost speaker from the Karaoke booth." Elena informed her.

Shay scoffed. "Elena…you seem to be mistaken. Isn't that a good thing?"

Elena just gave shay a look and Shay held her hands up in defense. She was like the polar opposite of her sister. And to Shay, and everyone else around them, it was definitely a good thing.

"Hey! Carter! You're with the carnival, right?" Elena asked. Carter nodded, walking over.

Tall…dark…handsome…amazing eyes. Shay was practically swooning.

"Wow. Yeah beautiful. What do you need?" He asked Shay, completely ignoring Elena.

Shay chuckled, biting her lower lip. He was charming. That was good.

"Do you know anything about Karaoke speakers?" Shay asked curiously. Carter smiled and nodded.

"Why don't you just point me to the problem?" He asked, smiling brightly at her.

"Yeah Shay. Why don't you just…show him the problem?" Elena said pointedly.

Shay laughed nervously as she led Carter over to the Speaker. Elena was glad that it wasn't Damon she was flirting with. Elena wasn't sure why she was so glad…if it was just because Damon and Shay were a match made in hell…or if she just wanted Damon…available.


On the other side of the fair was Jeremy getting popcorn.

"Jeremy!" Damon called, smiling brightly, sauntering over to him.

"So glad to see you're alive!" Damon smirked, taking some of Damon's popcorn.

Jeremy glared at him, but more than that, he was scared as hell. He didn't want to die again. It was painful the first time.

"Aren't you a little old for a school carnival?" Jeremy asked. Damon scoffed and rolled his eyes.

"About 150 years to old."

"Oh, your funny, cracking Jokes." Jeremy laughed dryly. "When I could…I don't know, blow the lid on this whole thing by telling someone what you really are."

Damon looked at Jeremy, appraisingly. Did he really have to do this? He got his answer. Yes, yes he did.

Damon grabbed Jeremy's shoulder with one hand, and his arm with the other, pushing him forcefully behind the popcorn booth. Jeremy struggled as Damon wrapped his arm around his neck, leaning into him, like they were the best of friends.

"So please tell me that was not a threat."

"Maybe it is." Jeremy told him, showing him his ring.

Damon looked down and sighed. You know? The Gilbert baby was really starting to piss him off.

"Oh…" Damon said, sighing, realization. He quickly spun Jeremy in front of him and wrapped an arm around the front of his neck tightly, and holding his arm behind his back.

Jeremy gasped, and struggled against him determinedly, but Damon was much, much to strong.

"Ok, so here's what we're not going to do. We're not going to walk around like we're invincible. When it's this easy for me to end you." Damon threatened into Jeremy's ear.

As Shay was walking back to Elena, she saw the scene and huffed a breath. Just great…

"Hey! Damon!" Shaylee snapped, walking up to them.

"Let him go." Shaylee demanded angrily. Damon sighed and practically threw Jeremy off him. He gasped a breath and glared at him, standing in front of Shay partially, protectively.

"Jeremy, why don't you go take a walk." Shay told him, glaring at Damon, never taking her eyes off him. His electrifyingly blue ones met hers and it felt like energy was coursing threw them.

Jeremy nodded, and he left.

"Stay away from us. And stay away from him." Shaylee snapped, glaring at Damon, walking away to find carter again.

Damon narrowed his eyes at Shaylee as he saw her flirting with Carter. She was laugher, smiling up at him with her gorgeous, perfectly white toothed smile that lit up her whole face. Her hands on his chest, his hands at her waist.

Damon clenched his jaw and stormed off.


Later that night, Tyler Lockwood was arm-wrestling everyone, but they couldn't beat him. Next, Mason Lockwood did it. He couldn't.

Damon had a wonderful idea, and sent Stefan in there to beat him. Stefan let Mason beat him though.

"Oh Come on. You weren't even trying!" Damon complained. Stefan shook his head.

"Yeah. I was."

Crap.

Damon nodded, and headed back into the school. Alright. Something was fishy here. There had to be something going on with the Lockwood's. Abnormally strong? Growth hormones? Damon thought, not.

Looking around the school, he smirked and saw the guy Shaylee was flirting with. Perfect. Now, Damon could have picked anyone in this school, but he picked him.

Stefan saw Damon going up to Carter and sighed. He had seen Shay with him all night, their hands all over each other, smiling like idiots. Great…

"Is he-" Damon asked, turning around to Face Stefan who was hot on his trail. Silently asking him if Mason was a vampire.

Stefan shook his head. "No, it wasn't that kind of strength, but it was inhuman."

"What is up with that family?" Damon complained.

"Oh, maybe there uh…ninja Turtles?" Stefan asked. Damon narrowed his eyes at his brother.

"Zombies. Werewolves." Stefan suggested.

"You get your humor from Shay, I swear." Damon told him, furrowing his eyebrows, looking up as he shook his head.

Stefan smirked. That was…he didn't know how to take that.

But then Damon looked over at Carter, and got a brilliant idea. He smirked.

"What? What are you up to?" Stefan asked suspiciously, nervously too. This could be very bad.

"Since this is reality, and there is no such thing as werewolves, or combat turtles-" Damon told Stefan, turning around and going up to Carter.

"It's Ninja Turtles, actually." Stefan reminded him. Yeah…like Damon gave a crap.

"Hey, you!" Damon called to carter, walking up to him.

Carter looked at him and scoffed. Damon forced himself not to roll his eyes.

"I have a name." He commented.

"Don't care." Damon snapped. Carter and Shay…boy. A match made in heaven. Both are annoying as hell and have an attitude. Damon grabbed him by the shoulders, and looked into his eyes.

"I need you to pick a fight with Tyler Lockwood." Damon told him, compelling him.

Stefan's jaw almost dropped, but then again…Damon had done worse things to a guy Shay liked.

"Damon, don't do this." Stefan warned. Damon put his hand up, shushing him.

"Just an experiment." Damon told Stefan, then went back to Compelling Carter. "Get him mad, but don't back down, no matter what. Ok?"

"I won't back down."

"Good." Damon told him, turning away from him, walking away.

Stefan shook his head angrily and followed Damon, stopping him in the hall.

"Is this really worth it?" Stefan snapped. Damon groaned and rolled his eyes.

"Worth what?"

"Hurting Shay, again? Just for your own sick amusement?" Stefan demanded. Damon rolled his eyes.

"It's not my amusement. It's just…an experiment." He said smirking.

"You do realize someone's going to get hurt, right?"

"Oh c'mon! The guys a total tool."

"Alright, then that's what you can tell shay, when the guy she likes winds up dead. Cause, trust me. It's not going to be Carter who is hurt." Stefan told him, nodding, walking away.

Damon sighed. It was worth it if he could get Shay back.

He decided to leave Shaylee alone, but that was until Barbie attacked him in the hallway, and became a vampire.


"Shaylee." He greeted her. Shaylee groaned and rolled her eyes, starting to move away from him, bug he gripped her upper arm, tugging her back into him.

"Listen, I know I'm the last person you wanna see, but I need you to come with me. Right now." Damon told her, looking down at her seriously into her angry eyes that were looking up at him.

"I'm not interested."

"I need you to come with me right now, Shaylee." Damon told her, stressing right now. He looked down at her intensely seriously.

She saw how serious Damon looked and furrowed her brow worriedly. But he saw the look in her eyes. Still completely trusting with him. He still had a chance. He just couldn't screw it up this time around.

She nodded, and he nodded back at her. Good. He let go of her arm and wrapped an arm around her waist.

"Caroline's a vampire." Damon murmured into Shaylee's ear, steering her towards the school.

Shaylee almost froze, but Damon kept her walking. Her jaw dropped as she looked up at Damon frightfully, worried about Caroline.


She called Stefan on the way to Alaric's classroom and he met them there. Shaylee sat on Alaric's desk and Stefan was pacing and Damon was leaning against the window.

"We can't tell Elena." Shaylee told them. "Not until we get this under control. She'll get to emotional."

Both boys nodded in agreement.

"How did this happen? Mmhmm?" Stefan asked. Damon sighed and shrugged.

"Well, I fed her blood. Katherine obviously killed her. A plus B equals…"

"But why?" Shaylee asked confused. She knew she had been gone long. But why would Katherine kill Caroline? Caroline was innocent!

"Because Katherine is a Manipulative, Nast little Slut." Damon told her.

"And she said 'Game on?' What does that even mean?" Stefan asked confused.

"It means she's playing dirty. She want's us to know." Damon explained like it was the most simplest thing in the entire world, shrugging his shoulders. Shay rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"But why Caroline?"

"I don't know." Damon told her as if that was the simplest thing in the world too. Shay narrowed her eyes and fixed him a glare. Yeah…that was helpful.

"Caroline must be out of her mind." Stefan told them concerned about her. "She has no idea what's happening."

Damon chuckled and shook his head. "Oh, I think she does. All of my compulsion in the past started to wear off as soon as she…transitioned."

Shay huffed a sigh.

"Perfect." She said sarcastically.

"We have to find her." Stefan said determinedly. Damon nodded.

"Yep, and kill her." Damon said the last part slightly higher and faking apologetically. He didn't really care about her.

Shay's jaw dropped as anger pulsed threw her.

"We are not killing her Damon." Shay bit out angrily, standing up from Alaric's desk.

"She knows who we are. She's an official liability. We've got to get rid of her." Damon justified, shrugging his shoulders.

Shay tilted her head to the side, her mouth open slightly and her eyebrows furrowed, thinking.

"Were you always this much of a dick before I left or am I just pretending what I want to think?" Shay asked annoyed.

Damon smirked at her and winked. "Always."

The 'eye thing'.

"Alright, stop that. Your not as charming as you think." Shay snapped. Damon scoffed a laugh and rolled his eyes.

"Oh Come on. You love me." Damon told her. Shay scoffed, rolling her eyes.

"And you're in love with Katherine. Looks like we're both at a little impasse here." Shay bit out angrily. Stefan sighed and shook his head as Shay moved over to sit by him. He put a hand on her arm, stopping the fight.

"As entertaining as you guys are…" Stefan started, shaking his head. "Damon, absolutely not."

"Need I remind you of a little tragic story of a girl named Vicki Donovan?" Damon asked, folding his arms across his chest.

Shay sighed. "Yeah, and if my memory serves me, also your fault, and you didn't kill her." Shay pointed out.

Damon sneered at Shay. She was just sooo funny….

"Caroline of all people will not make it as a vampire. Her mother is a vampire hunter!" Damon pointed out. "Guys, Come on. We all know how this story ends. Let's just flip to the last chapter and-"

Shay was astounded.

"It's not an option, Damon." Shay argued.

"No?" Damon asked her sarcastically, raising his eyebrows. Shay sneered a 'no' response.

"Your silence is deafening Stefan. Wait…wasn't there a school carnival the night you staked Vicki?" Damon asked pointedly.

Shay let out a scoffing breath and shook her head. That was just great Damon…

Stefan shook his head and walked up to Damon.

"We're not going to kill her." Stefan said determinedly, gripping Shay's hand and pulling her out of the room with him, his hand on her back.

Stefan let go of her as soon as they were out of the building. He was trying to keep his cool. They couldn't kill Caroline…they just couldn't. It would kill Elena and Shay. But…Damon was right.

Shaylee could easily tell Stefan was frustrated.

"You agree with Damon, don't you?" She demanded.

Stefan groaned and punched the closest booth to him angrily out of frustration. He ran a hand threw his hair and started pacing again.

"Hey!" Shay called.

"Damon's right!" Stefan told her. "Not about what we should do, but about what's going to happen. Katherine all but signed Caroline's death sentence."

"She's doing this to me and Elena, isn't she." Shay guessed annoyed, shaking her head. Stefan shook his head and leaned against the back of the booth.

"Actually, she's doing this to me."

Shay sighed and ran a hand threw her wavy hair. "Alright, well, let's just find her."

Stefan nodded in agreement and they immediately headed out to look for her, but Stefan froze shortly after that.

"What?" Shaylee asked worriedly.

"Blood." Stefan murmured, and took off running, and Shay immediately took off after him, running as fast as they could for humans.


They ran behind another booth and saw Damon hugging Caroline, a stake poised and ready at her back. Shay gasped, her eyes wide with fright and anger. Stefan ran up to him and quickly knocked the stake out of Damon's hands before he had the chance to react and pushed him away from the sobbing Caroline who had blood on her mouth.

"Stefan!" Damon complained.

Shay immediately went to comfort Caroline when she pushed her away.

"Get away from me! You helped kill me!" Caroline sobbed. Shay cursed. Of course, Gabriella would be with Katherine. The one time Shay was beginning to think Katherine was the only evil one…

"No! Caroline! It wasn't me! It was Gabriella." Shay promised her.

"Then why does she look like you? And why did she do this to me?" she shouted, sobbing, becoming hysterical.

"Stefan, we've got to get her inside." Shay told him, quickly looking around to make sure nobody was watching them. She wrapped her arms around Caroline and she sobbed into Shay's shoulder.

Stefan nodded and stood in between Damon and the girls protectively.

"It's alright Caroline, come with me." Stefan promised her, finally turning his back on Damon and heading over to Caroline, starting to take her inside.

"She's going to die, it's only a matter of time!" Damon warned. Stefan turned back to him for a moment.

"Maybe so, but not tonight." Stefan announced, turning around again.

Damon raised an eyebrow, as if it was a challenge.

"Oh yea it is."

Then everything happened so fast. Damon picked up the stick and lunged at Caroline, but Shaylee saw what was happening. She turned around and positioned herself in front of Caroline protectively so Damon would have to stake her instead. He was not going to kill Caroline.

Stefan turned around and immediately tried to get in front of Shay, but it was too late. Shay gasped at how close Damon was to sticking the stake into her and looked up at him, into his piercing blue eyes scared.

Damon looked down at her intensely and saw how afraid she was. He couldn't do this to her. They held eyes, and Shaylee didn't have to say anything.

"Whatever happens, it's on you."

Shaylee was shocked as Damon walked backwards, away from them. Guess that proved he still had a heart.

"Caroline?" Bonnie asked, shocked.

Shay groaned. Great…bonnie. She didn't really get along with Bonnie that well…and Shay didn't care. She was a judgmental witch…literally and figuratively.

"No. Your not. You can't be." Bonnie stuttered. She couldn't believe Caroline was a vampire.

"Bonnie…"Caroline sobbed pleadingly. Bonnie shook her head angrily, and looked over at the dead body on the truck. Shaylee took in a shallow breath. Carter.

"Oh my god." Bonnie muttered angrily.

"Bonnie, please." Caroline pleaded. Bonnie didn't answer her.

"Stefan, just go." Shaylee told him, nodding that she would be ok. Stefan nodded back and wrapped an arm around Caroline's waist, taking her into the bathroom.

Shaylee turned back to an angry Bonnie.

"I can't believe this is happening." Bonnie snapped. Damon rolled his eyes.

"Oh come on. Don't pout about it. We've got a body to burry." Damon announced smirking. He turned to the body and sighed, shaking his head.

"Sucks to be you, Buddy."

But suddenly, Bonnie fixed her eyes on Damon and he groaned in pain and screamed quietly, holding his head, dropping to his knees in pain.

Shay gasped and looked at Bonnie wide eyes. No matter how much she hated Damon right now…she knew she would get over it eventually. She did love him.

"Bonnie! Bonnie Stop!" Shay shouted.

But then the water hose came shooting on, spraying water onto the concrete, running around Damon strategically.

"I told you what would happen if anyone else got hurt." bonnie threatened. Shay looked at her confused, and scared. What was she doing to him?

"I didn't do it!" He cried out, still in pain.

"Bonnie! Stop it right now!" Shay demanded. "He didn't do anything!"

"Everything that happens is his fault, Shay." Bonnie informed her. Shay scoffed. God. Bonnie was such a Mary Sue. Shay remembered why she hated her.

"No it's not Bonnie. You know that!" Shay snapped angrily. Bonnie glared at her, wanting to use her aneurism curse, but knowing it would do permanent damage to Shay.

But suddenly, in place of the water, shot out fire, engulfing the area around Damon and his legs. Shay gasped.

"Bonnie! Bonnie! Stop it! Bonnie! Don't!" Shaylee shouted terrified.

Damon started screaming, but Bonnie didn't care. Shay cursed. She knew she had to do something.

"Bonnie! Bonnie stop it!" Shaylee yelled at her, shaking Bonnie roughly. The fire died down, as did Damon's screams of pain.

"Why? Why did you stop me?" Bonnie snapped at her, slapping her arms off of her.

"Because you're a bitch! Everything is not Damon's fault!" Shaylee yelled at her, causing Bonnie to recoil, because obviously bonnie thought she was the only sane person.

"You would see that if you weren't up on your high horse all the time acting like little miss perfect who can do know wrong! News flash! You have no right to act so high and mighty all the fucking time! You're supernatural, so are they. So get the hell over it!" Shaylee snapped angrily at her.

Bonnie's mouth hung open and she turned around and stormed away.

Shaylee turned her attention back on Damon and immediately ran to him.

"Damon! Damon, are you ok?" Shaylee asked worriedly. She kneeled down to him, her hand on his muscular chest that would have made her melt if this wasn't so serious and a hand on his arm.

"Fine Shay." Damon chocked out, wincing in pain.

"No, your not." Shay said, shaking her head. He was clearly not fine.

"Shay, I'm fine. I just need blood." Damon told her, groaning. Shaylee looked to him nervously, but knew she had to do it…well….not had, but she wanted to.

Damon saw her looking down at her own wrist and immediately shook his head. She was not a blood bag.

"No way Shay." Damon argued.

"Go ahead Damon." Shay told him.

"Nope."

"Damon-"

"Shay-"

"I trust you." Shay finally spoke, looking passionately into Damon's eyes. Damon looked at her confused, and slightly honored. She trusted him? Still? After all of this?

"Alright." Damon finally said. He took her wrist in his hand.

Shay squeezed her eyes shut tight, preparing for immense pain, but it never came. Damon saw her worried face. She had been bitten before, but it hadn't been pleasant, obviously.

Damon smoothed the skin around her wrist with his thumb and Shay smiled softly as she began to relax a bit. It felt nice, actually. He then raised it to his hot mouth and kissed the skin lightly, almost a feather touch. He wanted to make this as pleasurable as he could for Shay.

Shay moaned lightly, but just enough so Damon could hear it. Shay didn't even half to look at him to know he was smirking.

"Relax." Damon murmured huskily. His voice hit a sexy pitch that shot right to Shay's nether regions. She forgot what an effect Damon had on her.

Damon kissed her wrist again, though he would have preferred her neck, but he took her wrist and bit into it gently. Shay felt a pierce, but then, absolute pleasure. Damon sucked, and groaned at the taste of her blood. It was absolute heaven.

Shay moaned louder as he sucked her blood into his mouth. She was in absolute ecstasy. She didn't even think she felt this good during sex. She felt herself getting wet as Damon suck more seductively.

Finally, Damon pulled away, not wanting to take too much. He looked up at her, and she met his eyes looking down at her intensely. That was absolutely amazing. Shay was completely out of breath and her chest was heaving. Damon held Shay's eyes passionately.

Shay was leaning down slowly, but Damon noticed. And he leaned up. But as soon as Shay saw she was doing this, she pulled away, immediately. No. She wasn't supposed to be doing this. He was in love with Katherine…or Elena…she didn't know which, but she knew it was one of them.

"Mmm." Shay said, clearing her throat threw the awkward silence.

"Glad your ok." She murmured, and hurriedly stood up, walking off.
