Chapter 2: Family Ties
I woke up with a jolt. God, these nightmares are getting worse, ugh. I never used to have nightmares. I quickly gather where I was. The safety of my bedroom. I hear voices downstairs. OMG, I haven't spoken to Aunt Jenna since I got back. I took a quick shower and decided I'd wear a duffer jumper and some jeans, the reason I decided with the jumper because it kind of hides the black cast on my right arm.
I begin to make my way downstairs when I hear the TV. Oh god. Logan Fell. I really hated Logan, he used to steal my sweets when I was younger and the whole thing with Jenna. As I walked through the door frame, all I felt was me getting squeezed.
"Ahh, god I can't breathe!" I wheezed out. Woah this person can really hug.
"Oh, sorry. I can't believe you're back, Elena told me this morning and I didn't really want to go storming into your room" She pulled away and put me her hands on my shoulders inspecting me.
"Yeah, well, I missed you buggers" I smiled but then frowned as Aunt Jenna noticed the cast
"What happened to you Kailey?" She lifted the cast. The whole point in the jumper, is so people wouldn't know that I have a cast. God dammit.
"Woah, Kailey you didn't have that last night" Elena jumped into the conversation.
"You really want to know?" I teased and they both nodded, I'm not sure whether it was excitement or they are just curious.
"I punched someone in the face last night" I mumbled out and they both went into shock. I mean what do you expect. They know somewhat of my anger problems but they don't know that has got recently worse.
"Who? May I ask?" Jenna stuttered out. Elena has always been the compassionate one, me on the other hand, I do what has to be done.
"Stefan's Brother" I mumbled but they didn't hear me. So I repeat myself.
"YOU WHAT?" Elena shouted but not in anger, more like amusement.
"Yes, I punched the prick in the face. He was trying to piss me off and you know about my anger problems and he just flipped a switch." Elena started to laugh so much she fell of the floor.
"Compose yourself woman, God, I see Logan Scum Fell is still getting to you Jenna." I begin to move towards the coffee machine as Jenna grabbed for the remote and turned off the TV. Elena finally got a hold of herself.
Elena began messing with these antique looking objects.
"What are you doing with that?" Jenna asked Elena who still hasn't fully recovered after her laughing fit.
"Mum told Mrs Lockwood that she would loan it to the Founder's Council for their Heritage Display which is tonight" She mumbled, obviously trying to hold in the laughter.
I kind of zoned out of their conversation, they said something about rings, Oh, I don't know but I jumped back into real life and Jeremy walked up next to me and the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it, Elena sit your ass down" I said with a cup of coffee in my hand. I begin to walk over and open the door to find Stefan.
"Hey" He said. Woah, I just noticed that he is hot aswell. Well, this isn't good for my hormones.
"Hey Stefan, May I ask what your last name is?" I said casually while stepping aside allowing him to walk in.
"Salvatore, Stefan Salvat-" He was cut off by Elena with a kiss. Great, she wants revenge with what happened with Andrew. Salvatore, I've heard of Salvatore before.
Elena smirked at me and dragged Stefan upstairs. Ugh, the bitch. I sat down and watched TV for a good hour then I heard the door ring. I got up and went to the door but Jeremy got there first.
"TYLER!" I ran towards him and wrapped my hands around him. Me and Tyler are childhood best friends, we did everything together with Andrew and Matt. His mum, Carol, is like a second mother to me, but his dad I didn't really click with.
"Aha, Kailey" He chuckled and wrapped his hands around me.
"I've missed you, you pleb" I pulled away from the hug a ruffed his hair which he returned and gave him a glare.
"Well, I'm here for my mum, which you need to see Kailey or she will kill me. I'm suppose to pick up a box of stuff" He said to Jeremy. Tyler doesn't back down from a fight, it's not really in his nature but he is trying to hold off Jeremy seeing as Kailey is his sister and he knows how she feels about family.
"Right here, be careful!" Elena came from behind and gave Tyler the box with softness so she doesn't break anything inside.
"Bye Tyler, I'll see you at the Founder's Party tonight" I was about to walk in when he stopped me.
"Oh, you're going to that? Doesn't seem like your style" He asked. He was right, it isn't my style. And did I mention that his mum begged my mum to signed me up for Miss Mystic Falls which she did by the way and the event is getting scarcely closer.
"Oh, yea, I kind of have too or your mum would kill me, anyway bye Tyler" I chuckled and closed the door. God, I missed Tyler and nearly everyone here other than Nate Wood who I haven't seen recently. Must be on holiday or something.
He used to bully Jeremy but I got in a fight with him and I won of course. I do boxing and Nate knew that but he didn't back down. I admire that but I despise him because he bullies my brother, he is like the town's bully.
-x-
I sat on the kitchen counter, eating some chips when Elena and Bonnie walk in. Me and Bonnie are not the best of friends. We never really got along when we were younger and it stayed the same as we grew up. I sometimes feels like she envy's my popularity. Oh, I forgot to say, the whole town knew me and always wanted to hang around with me and honestly I think they would do anything for me.
Bonnie sat down and started to emptying her bag full of make-up and nail accessories.
"Delicate flower vs. Naughty vixen" She holds up 2 nail polishes.
"Tough call, can we mix them?" Elena said while grabbing the kitchen towels and walking back over to the table. I never exactly wanted to hate Bonnie. She kind of drove me to it, she used to give me dirty looks and try and steal the boy that I had a crush on at the time.
"Look at you, getting all pretty for your date" I said as I jumped off the counter and made my way over to them. I took a seat and grabbed a nice red colour and started to apply it.
"Well, who are you going with?" Elena asked as she fiddled with one of the nail polishes.
"I'm going with Andrew Leeds" I said, both of them seemed shocked but then I saw jealousy in Bonnie's eyes but it quickly disappeared. Bonnie has had a crush on Andrew for awhile and it was starting to bug her that he still hangs around with me after the break up. I smirked and carried on.
"He asked me yesterday when I told him I was going" Okay, now I'm trying to get on Bonnie's nerves just for payback. Ya'know trying to steal my boys when we was younger. Elena felt the tension between us and started to talk to Bonnie.
"Tonight is going to be a goodnight but don't let that stop you from telling me whatever it is you wanted to tell me as soon as you walked in the door" Elena directed that towards Bonnie who is still focused with her bag.
"What if I tell you in the morning? I don't want to ruin the night" She carries on being focused on the bag and sometimes looking towards Elena.
"Bonnie, out with it" Elena pushed hoping she would spill the beans. Bonnie is the kind of person that tell someone that she is going to tell them her darkest secret but then says she wont. She is the ultimate tease.
"Ok, but it has to go in the vault because Caroline will kill me if gets backs to Damon that she squealed" I started to focus into the conversation because she said Caroline's name along with Damon. Who is Caroline to Damon? Why was she hanging around with that prick?
She looked towards me and Elena waiting for a reply. Elena agreed with her eyes but Bonnie wants a verbal agreement from me. I rolled my eyes.
"I promise I will not mention your name or tell anyone about this ultimate secret Caroline has told you." I placed down the nail polished and became more focus into the conversation, waiting for what she is about to say.
"Apparently Stefan has a very interesting back story. Do you know what happened with his ex-girlfriend Katherine?" Wait, who the fuck is Katherine? God, I need to hang around with Elena more.
"I know that they both dated her and that's why they have issues" Ah, I was right, I knew there was history with the two of them. Why is always the love triangle though? I stayed quiet through all of this, just analysing what they are saying about the brothers.
"Yeah, they both dated her, only she chose Damon and that drove Stefan mad, so he did horrible things to try and break them up. He manipulated Katherine. He filled her head with all these lies until finally it worked, and she turned against Damon" Elena was shocked by the information she was just given. I can't believe Caroline actually believed this bullshit.
I bursted out laughing. Elena looked at me with a confused face along with Bonnie.
"I have never heard such bullshit in my life" I stuttered still laughing. Elena turned back to Bonnie.
"That sounds like one person's side of the story, meaning Damon's." Personally I feel like the story is the other way round. I have this gut feeling there is more behind this story.
"I just wanted to you to know" Bonnie shrugged drawing her attention back to the nail polish.
"Anyway, his past relationships are none of my business" I love how Elena is acting like the information she just got doesn't bother her.
"Unless he's a calculating manipulative liar, that is your business" Woah, hold the phone. The only manipulative liar here is Damon. I turned to Bonnie
"Stefan is none of them things" I said with no hesitation
"Yeah, well how do you know?" Bonnie shot back. She is pissing me off.
"Stefan is kind, I see it. I didn't do psychology for nothing. I feel like Damon has a motive, like a agenda that he isn't telling anyone about. Did I tell you why I got this cast? Like what Damon said to me?" They both shook their head and I continued on.
"He made these mad accusations on me that I wanted him and that I wanted to kiss him. And he leaned in and I punched him in the face. So the only manipulative cheating liar here is Damon" Their faces are covered with shock. Damon is going to get shouted at by Elena. I bet you and I'm going to record it.
We sat there for a couple more minutes. Oh crap! I need a dress to match this cast or I'm going to look like an idiot at the party. The best part is, I'm best friend's with one of the finest shoppers around, Caroline Forbes. And I'm also going to grill her about Damon. I know the brothers are hiding something but I can't put my finger on it.
I scrolled down my phone and found my BFF.
"Hey, Caroline. I need advice and some service" I heard a man's voice in the background, probably the prick.
"I'm still pissed at you Kailey! You didn't come to see me when you got back!" Her voice sounded genuinely pissed off.
"I know, and that's why I need to go shopping and I wanted to go with you. Seeing as you are the best dress picker" I'm hoping this will calm her down.
"Okay, I love picking dresses! What colour would you prefer?" Ah, there is my Caroline. If you mention anything about dresses or shopping, it will shove her into a good mood.
"Well, I need black or red, mainly because I have a cast that is black and I just thought red goes so well with black." I have a feeling Damon is listening into the conversation which is starting to annoy me. I continued on.
"I will pick you up in half an hour and tell Damon to stop listening into people's conversations" I said through clenched teeth. And I was right, he was listening in as Caroline shooed him away.
"How did you know that he was listening in?" She asked suspiciously. Well, I had past boyfriend who used to do it all the time. I was going to say because he is the type of prick to do that but I held off because Caroline is quite defensive about her boyfriends. I had to learn that the hard way.
"Oh, just a gut feeling. Bye Caroline" We said out goodbyes and I hung up.
-x-
I'm waiting outside Caroline's house in my car. I beeped the horn but she didn't come out. Why is she taking forever? I got out the car and walked up the drive. There was a 1969 blue camaro is great condition. I must say I'm kind of jealous. I knocked on the door and none other but the prick opened the door.
"Hello Kailey" He said in a low seductive voice.
"Hello prick, Where is Caroline?" I said while texting on my phone. It seemed to irritate him that I wasn't focus on him.
"She will be out in a minute" He looked at me up and down then stared straight at my cast.
"Oh yea, thanks for this by the way" I held up my broken hand and glared at him.
"Yeah, I'm sorry about that and you did do a good punch, I think you broken my nose, I had to click it back in place, lucky it didn't swell" he chuckled. I'm getting impatient so I shoved past him.
"Sorry, I'm getting a bit impatient. CAROLINE!" I turned to him then turned to look up the stairs.
"Why don't you just wait in the living room? Do you want a drink?" He asked while smirking. So me being impatient, angry and immune to his charm is amusing him? This guy is really odd.
"I don't want a drink nor do I want to talk to you" as I said that Caroline came rushing down the stairs with a scarf.. Why is she wearing a scarf? It's really hot out but I didn't stop to ask.
"Well, ladies have a great time but I have to get going." He turned and left. I sighed and left the house with Caroline.
-x-
"Oooooh this one looks nice" After 15 minutes, we have a pile of dresses. I feel bad for the people that have to put them back on the racks.
"Caroline, can we go to that dress store?" I pointed to a store that says Grand Dresses. There is a lady in there that loves me and would give me a discount.
"Ugh, fine." She grunting putting the last dress on top of the pile. We made our way over and I was greeted with a hug. I've been hugged alot lately.
"Ah, sweety, you want a dress for the Founder's Party?" She was an old lady with amazing taste, even a bit better than Caroline and that's saying something.
"Yes Grace. Something that would match this cast" I held up the cast and her up lit up like its the best moment of her life. She scurried away and was back in mere seconds.
"It was for a grand daughter but my children had boys and you are like a daughter to me, here" She passed me the box and I opened the box. It was the most beautiful dress I've ever seen. Even Caroline squealed with excitement. I giggled and hugged Grace. I changed into the dress and it fit my curves perfectly. It was a red dress which flowed down to the floor.
"How do I look?" I giggled as Grace and Caroline went into shock. Well, I'm going to be the most attractive at the party.
-x-
I texted Andrew to hurry up or we are going to be late.
Kailey: Quickly, come pick me up, you pleb
Andrew: Okay, I'm nearly there 10 minutes.
Kailey: Oh, and don't drool when you see me ;)
Andrew: And why would I do that?
Kailey: You will see soon x
I applied some make-up then looked at myself in the mirror. I look quite sexy actually. Andrew texted me that he was outside. I opened the door and slowly walked down the steps of my porch and Andrew got out the car. He looked like he just saw the most beautiful thing in the world. He held out my hand and opened his Stingers car door. He ran around the car and jumped in.
"Okay, you said not too drool but I think it's too late" he stuttered. I smirked as he started the car. He kept on staring at me when he was driving and I had to keep hitting him in the chest for him to regain focus on the road. Andrew parked the car and opened the passenger car door and held out the hand. I took it and climbed out the car.
We began to climb the steps of the house while holding hands. Everyone was staring and whispering whether we was back together or not. Me and Andrew decided in the car to act and pretend to be a couple and kiss and stuff. We did it when we broke up and we loved the reactions. Me and Andrew are chill about it, our relationship will never be awkward.
We reached the door and was greeted by Mayor Lockwood and a tight hug by Carol.
"Kailey, I've missed you and you look exquisite!" I giggled at her reaction and continued into the house with Andrew.
"Andrew, I'm going to go and grab some drinks, go and mingle" I teased but he just glared at me which make me smirk.
I made my way over to the bar to get me and Andrew's favourite drink, Bourbon. I blame Andrew for my love of Bourbon. I've just loved hard liquor.
"Oh, fancy seeing you here" I heard a low husky voice behind me. Oh, great, the prick. When I turned around his face was full of shock as his eyes gaze up and down my body. He looks really dashing in a suit, not going to lie. He continued.
"u-u-uh you look amazing" He looked back up to my eyes then to my lips. He better not be thinking what I think he is thinking.
"Uh, thank you. You look rather dashing yourself" I didn't mean to say that. It shocked myself, it sort of slipped out. He smirked by my reaction of what I said.
"Did you come alone to the party?" He asked as he sips his drink. It was bourbon aswell. Coincidence?
"No, I didn't, ah look here he is now" Andrew strolled on over. I didn't fully look at what Andrew was wearing. He was wearing a black tuxedo and a black bow tie. He is the suit god.
"Hey, I'm Andrew" Andrew put his arm out to Damon. He took it without hesitation.
"I'm Damon. Damon Salvatore" I passed Andrew his drink and pulled him into a small kiss. I watched Damon's reaction. I saw jealousy flicker in his eyes and I don't think Damon noticed the he was jealous.
"Dance with me?" Andrew asked me. I smiled and he put a hand on my lower back and guided me to the dance floor.
We dance for a couple of minutes as everyone stared at us. I began to mingle with everyone and thanked everyone's complements on my dress. I started to look through the Heritage Display with Andrew then we saw Stefan and Elena looking aswell. I grabbed Andrew's hand and dragged him over to them.
"The founding families in Mystic Falls welcomes you to the inaugural founder's council celebration, look at all these familiar names, sheriff William Forbes, mayor Benjamin Lockwood" Elena reads out while looking at the original guest registry. She stops for a second but then continues
"Is that Damon Salvatore? And, Stefan Salvatore?" Elena questioned obviously freaked out.
"Oh my god it is..." I said beside Elena. Uhmm...
"The original Salvatore Brothers" I rolled my eyes knowing exactly who it is. "Our ancestors. Tragic story, actually." God, I can't believe how creepy this guy is. He keeps on staring at me.
"We don't need to bore them with stories of the past" Stefan said. He seems a bit on edge.
"It's not boring, Stefan. I'd love to hear more about your family" Elena said. Elena has to be the typical Elena and but her nose into people's business. Damon just stared at Stefan and smirked like he just scored a goal.
"Well, I'm bored. I want to dance and Damon won't dance with me" Caroline stopped the awkward silence.
"Could I just borrow your date?" She directed this at me.
"Uh, sure, Andrew would love to" I smirked towards Andrew but he is in shock. He has like Caroline ever since I broke up with him. Andrew held out a hand and Caroline took it. Andrew guided her towards the dance floor. I giggled at Andrew's reaction.
"Well, I want to dance too" Elena said eyeing me. For fuck sake ELENA don't leave me! Stefan was about to detest.
"Stefan, Elena go and dance. I'm going to go talk with Tyler" I said and Elena visibly relaxing giving Damon a death glare. Stefan and Elena leave for the dance floor but Damon had to talk to me.
"Fate must be bring us together" he said with a smirk.
"Oh, please, you basically drove Caroline to ask Andrew to dance." I scoffed looking around at the other antiques.
"I wanted to fully apologise to you for being a world-class jerk the other night when I tried to kiss you and your broken hand. There was no excuse. Oh and I made a mental note to never piss you off" He chuckles, I stay quiet and he continues.
"My therapist says I'm acting out trying to punish Stefan and Elena" He says. I think he is actually trying to be sincere.
"Ah, so I was right, there was past with you and your brother. That was a total guess" I chuckled. Oh no, I need to not like him.
"Well, the men in the Salvatore Family have been cursed with sibling rivalry and it all started with the original Salvatore Brothers" He says with a devilish look in his eyes. Oh no, here comes the creep.
"Oh God, don't give me a history lesson" I chuckled. God I need to stop chuckling.
"Well, I'll hold off and tell Elena" He smirked.
"Well, I guess I could guess what the original Salvatore Brothers used to fight about. Uhmmm, must be the love of a girl. Doesn't it always come down to the love of a girl?" I said. Damon's eyes flickered to sadness then anger then to no emotion. I continued.
"Elena told me about some girl Katherine." I paused waiting for a reaction but got nothing.
"Yes, she died" He said with no emotion. I guess he is pretty good at hiding emotion.
"Look, I'm sorry the you and Stefan have this thing between you, but don't drag Elena or me in the middle of it, Damon, I just hope you two can work it out" I said with a small smile. Crap, I'm actually starting to warm up to this guys which is a bad thing.
"I hope so, too" he replied with a small smile.
Me and Damon walked towards Stefan, Elena, Caroline and Andrew having some champagne. Andrew offered me some and I took it with a smirk. Stefan also offered Damon but he declined. The awkwardness filled the atmosphere but it was me who stopped it.
"Andrew, do you have another dance in you?" I smiled and held out my hand.
"Absolutely" He smiled and took my hand and walked over to the dance floor. Stefan and Elena followed wanting to dance aswell. But I saw Damon staring right at me and Andrew. I heard Caroline say something like me and Andrew looking so cute together. I saw Damon's eyes flicker with jealousy once again. I hear Stefan and Elena talk about Katherine, they begin to argue and then Elena stormed off. I pulled out the dance and grabbed Stefan and pulled him into a dance.
"Stefan what happened?" I asked and we swayed with the music
"Damon happened" He sighed and looked towards his brother.
"For fucks sake, what did he do? Do you want me to put him back in his place?" I asked hoping to lighten the mood.
"He is trying to turn her against me. He talked to her earlier while I was getting drinks and I don't know what he said" He sighed once again.
"Stefan, I know you are hiding something from Elena. I can't put my finger on it. Elena hates secrets and if she wants to find something out she will, one way or another" He was taken aback when I said something about hiding something. I pulled out the dance and made my way to find Elena who was in the bathroom with Caroline.
"Did Damon hurt you?" Elena said to Caroline as I walked in. Elena quickly pulled down Caroline's scarf to show a bite mark.
"Just leave me alone, ok, Elena?!" She shoved past me and through the door. The outer part of my eye's begin to darken and if looks can kill, I'm sure Elena's can. I turned on my heel and ran through the bathroom door. I'm going to find that prick and punch him... Again. Elena followed me with the same anger flowing through her. I walked out side the house into the back party to see him standing there. Smiling towards me and Elena. Elena got in front of me and shoved him.
"There is something seriously wrong with you, you stay away from Caroline or I will go straight to her mother, the sheriff. You got it? Stay away from her." She stormed off but he kept his eyes on her then turned back to me. I was just about to walk off when I stopped besides his shoulder and turned my head towards his ear.
"I know what you are Damon. I know what your brother is. If you go near Caroline and sink your teeth in her again or any of my family and friends, I will personally drive a stake through your heart." I whispered into is ear. His face was shocked. I knew ever since Stefan told me his last name. I knew that the Salvatore Brothers died in 1864 but I needed proof and they gave it to me.
I turned and tried to find Caroline but Damon was following right behind me.
"May I speak to Caroline for a second?" He directed this question towards me and I scoffed. He looked towards my wrist to see I'm not wearing my bracelet.
"Walk away, Salvatore" I said through clenched teeth and then taking a sip of my champagne that I got off one of the waiters.
"Turn around and forgot about the conversation you just had" He said looking directly in my eyes. Now, if I know that the Salvatore Brothers are vampires, I wouldn't take off my vervain. I'm wearing a ankle bracelet with vervain inside it. I wanted to try my drama skills so I played along. I turned around and I can sense that he was smirking.
He grabbed Caroline and directed her outside the house. I smirked and turned back around keeping my distance. I see him sink his teeth into Caroline and I smirked. My plan has worked.
5 minutes ago
"Hey Caroline, want some champagne?" I held out some champagne that I tampered with vervain.
"Ugh, sure, about the bathroom thing a couple minutes ago, it was nothing honestly, I'm fine" She mumbled and took a long swig of champagne.
"It's okay Caroline, I believe you" I gave her a small smile and took a gulp of my own and right on cue Damon comes over. I smirked.
Present Day
I begin to walk over towards his moaning body. I bend down as far as I could with heels.
"Damon, don't mess with me, I'm not as stupid as I look you know." I tutted at him and got up and went over to Caroline's limp body. Good, she is alive. I saw Stefan come over and he looked straight at me.
"Sorry Stefan, I sort of pick pocketed your little vile of vervain while we was dancing. I always knew you was a vampire" I said casually. I saw a sense of relief when I told him I knew, like a weight has been lifted off his shoulders.
"How did you do it?" He looked towards Damon's body.
"Well, I knew I couldn't spike his drink because he would probably smell it, but when I saw the bite marks in Caroline. I knew that he would probably get mad when me and Elena confronted him and told him about Caroline" I said and pulled out my phone from my bra. I texted Andrew to go home without me and I needed to sort out a few things. I might aswell catch a ride with Elena.
"So Stefan, what are you going to do with him? The little bastard tried to compel me." I said as I stuffed my phone back into my bra.
"I'm going to lock him away in my house" He said when he picked up Damon and put him over his shoulder.
"Stefan, you need to tell Elena before it gets out of hand" I sighed
"Yes, I know, I will soon. I'm not sure how she is going to take it." He sighed and began to walk off.
"Wait, Stefan! I just have to say, if you hurt Elena physically, I will not be happy" I said but I'm pretty sure Stefan won't hurt a hair on her pretty little head. He nodded and disappeared. Damn, Vampire speed.
Elena came walking over when Caroline got up from the floor, she started to sob and Elena pulled her into a hug. I asked Elena if I could catch a ride with her and she said sure. Caroline went home, obviously scared out of her mind. I took everything off and got into bed.
Today has been an incredibly long day. I know Stefan is the good brother and will not hurt Elena because he pushed me and Tyler out the way and made a some what okay first impression. But Damon, oh my, he is another story. He tries to royalty piss me off. He hurts the people I care about. The Salvatore Brothers are the definition of Good Cop and Bad Cop.

Chapter 3: You're Undead to Me
I couldn't sleep because the nightmares are getting worse so I decided that I need to take a jog, I reached over and grabbed my phone of the bedside table. It was 4 AM. I haven't slept all night. I got up and put on a black tracksuit, grabbed my headphones and a bottle of water. I've been hiding a lot of secrets from everyone, especially the fact that in my trunk there was stakes, vervain darts, wooden bullets and guns. I know, I'm such a badass. I'm going to this washing thing at the school tomorrow, and it's going to be pretty sunny. Yes! I can maintain my tan.
Elena has been on edge about Stefan for the past 4 days. She will not stop talking about him and its driving me NUTS! I've been giving Stefan some vervain stuff just darts and while I was there I just talked to Damon and he grew weaker and weaker by the minute. I used to say snarky comments and he just smiled. I feel kind of bad for him now.
2 days ago
"Here you go, 5 vervain darts and 2 vervain grenades if he tries anything" I passed the things to Stefan and he took them with a nod and a small smile.
"Ah, look, if it isn't Miss Vampire Vervain-er." I heard him grunt and I just smirked.
"Oh Damon, I bet you are going to miss me" I walked over the door. He looked like he could suck the life out of 100 people.
"Yeah, you wish" He grunted but he smirked after.
"Do you want me to tell you a secret?" I whispered and he turned his head and looked at me.
"I actually feel bad for you" I said. I really do and I know I shouldn't but I do.
"Then get me some blood" He mumbled. I started to laugh.
"Oh Damon, you hurt the people I care about and you broke my hand plus you really piss me off. You have this thing for flipping my switch." I said leaning on the door, trying to get a better view of Damon.
"I said I was sorry. I want to be your friend" He mumbled.
"Oh, please, if you wanted to be my friend you wouldn't stick your teeth into my best friend nor would you try and compel me. Which you failed immensely. I knew you was a vampire and you expect me not to wear vervain? That was a really dumb move" I scoffed and slid down the floor so I was now sitting back against the door.
"Yeah well, I underestimated you. I will not do it again and while you are still here, can I ask you a question?" He tried to stand up but fell back down.
"Sure, as your last wish, why not?" I stayed seated and pulled out my phone.
"Have you been sleeping lately?" He asked. He seemed genuinely concerned.
"No, I haven't slept for a couple of days" I sighed then coincidently yawned.
"You should go home and sleep. You have this weird eye thing, it goes all black around the edges" He stated.
"Yes, I know. It happens when I get mad which is a lot. I've been mad a lot recently. The only emotion that I've been having" I sighed and got up.
"Goodbye Damon" I send him a small smile and left. I'm really starting to like this guy. He is the only one that was asking about my day and any concerns. He is asking even more then Elena, which is extremely shocking.
Present Day
I jogged back to house and entered in Jenna and Elena talking about Logan Fell. I just grabbed another bottle of water and went up stairs to jump into the shower.
I decided on what I'm going to wear for the washing thing tomorrow my bikini under my tank top. I have a feeling someone is going to throw water at me tomorrow and with a white tank top that wouldn't end well.
I put on some jeans and a white shirt and quickly out my hair up in a messy bun. I grabbed my car keys and went out door shouting goodbye to Elena and Jenna. Elena was shocked that I left the house so early seeing that I already graduated. I've taken a 1 out of university, I'm kind of sick of it surprisingly. I get into my Mustang and began the drive to the Salvatore Boarding House.
Their house is actually quite big, they have this massive fire place, basically massive everything and they have tons of rooms. If anyone in my family pisses me off. I'm definitely crashing here. I parked up outside their door and Stefan came walking out with his school bag.
"Hey Stef, I just wanted to check up on the devil" I smiled. It's weird being older than him by looks but he is like 160 years old.
"Sure, Zach is in there, make yourself at home" He smiled and ran off with vampire speed. Zach is really nice, I've been friends with him before I left. He has been quite suspious about Damon and his unknown agenda about being in Mystic Falls.
I begin my way down their steps to the basement after say hey to Zach. All I hear way grunting and coughing on my way down the steps.
"Well, Damon, you look worse for wear" he chuckled then started to cough.
"I was missing our conversations" He grunted.
"Oh come on, I'm like your world right now" I teased and he chuckled.
"More like I'm your world" He mumbled. We carried on talking for hours then Zach came down. They started to talk about their family, I zoned out when I checked my Snapchat on any updates with Elena or Jeremy, looks like Jeremy and Stefan are planning a special dinner for Elena. Zach turned to walk away but Damon grabbed him around the neck.
"Let him go Damon" He looked me in the eyes and loosened his grip then Stefan ran in and grabbed and squeezed his hand causing Damon to fully let go of him. Stefan grabbed Zach and guided him upstairs leaving me and Damon. I passed Damon the most tiniest amount of bunny blood and left. I know I shouldn't of gave it to him. But it would make no difference to his health. It's like giving a someone a drop of water when they have been in the desert in days but after a couple of minutes they haven't changed in health, they would only want more. Plus it's bunny blood, not human.

I jumped in the shower, brushed my teeth, applied make-up then put on the clothes that I decided to wear for the washing thing yesterday. I go visit Damon later and say my goodbyes. Wait, no I'm not going to go or I will feel attached. I don't like the guy.
I made my way to the school in my Mustang and parked up along the side. I saw Stefan and Elena and made my way over to them.
"It's called a sexy suds" I said to them with my hands on my hips. They both had a jacket on with a t-shirt. They are making no effort at all!
"We just got scolded by Caroline, not you too" Elena grunted. I chuckled and grabbed a bucket of water.
"If you don't take it off, I will personally throw this at both of you" I grinned and made my aim but Stefan only took off his hoodie and Elena took off her jumper but it got stuck around her head. I started to laugh but when she got it off, she glared at me.
"I guess it's good enough. You will not get wet today" I smirked and placed down the bucket. Elena wanted revenge because she noticed that I was still dressed too. She quickly picked up the bucket of water I original had in my hand.
"Elena, don't do anything you might regret." I put my hands up like I was about to get shot.
"Well, I think you should take it off aswell" I sighed and took it off. Now I was only wearing my bikini.
"At least I'm showing my bikini" I shot back at Elena but she only giggled.
I left them and went back over to my car. I laid down on the hood of my car and began to sun bathing. I'm sure every boy in this place is watching me. Caroline will be pissed at me but I don't even go to this school. When you speak of the devil, the devil will come.
"You're suppose to be washing cars!" I'm still laying on my hood with my aviators. I lifted up my head and saw Caroline with her hands on her hips.
"Caroline, I was but I took a break" I giggled and laid my head back down on the car. She just grunted and walked off. I jumped off the car and followed her to the money station.
"Okay Caroline, I'm sorry, I will wash some cars" I said and grabbed a bucket of water with a sponge. I saw a smile grow on her face.
"Good!" She said while counting the money and placing it in the money box. Elena walked over just as I was about to leave.
"Caroline, we need more towels" She said. She seemed agitated.
"Okay, I will go and grab some. Stay here and look after the money" She got up and left. I walked up on the other side of the table where Elena is now sitting.
"Elena, are you alright?" I said as I placed the bucket back down.
"Ugh, no, Stefan is hiding something. There was a man yesterday night when we went to the grill and he said that Stefan hasn't aged a day, but Stefan said he must be crazy." She sighed and placed some of the money in the money box.
"Just give him some time. He will tell you whatever it is eventually" I picked up the bucket and sponge and started to wash some cars. Ah, god, all the boys keep on staring at me. There are other people with good bodies here, not just me... Okay, maybe just me, they need to keep their hormones under control.
I looked over at the money station and Tiki was there (At least I think it is Tiki). Looks like Caroline hasn't come back. I looked around to find Elena but she wasn't anywhere but I saw Stefan, I dropped the sponge that was in my hand and made my way over to him.
"Stefan, can I talk to you for a minute?" I said with an important look in my eyes.
"Yes, what is it?" He asked while we moved away from any people.
"Elena is starting to catch on. She wont stop until she finds out" I said while looking around so no one was listening into our conversation.
"I trying to hold off telling her as much as I can but I guess I'm going to have to do it. Do you know where she is?" He sighed but I shook my head to answer his question. He was about to walk away but I grabbed his upper arm.
"Have you seen Caroline?" I'm worried about her. She hasn't been right since the Founder's Party. She said there was gaps in her memory and I didn't have time to give her some of my vervain. But he shook his head and I let go of his arm. I'm sure that she must've went home or something.

I feel like something is wrong at the Salvatore House. I grabbed my car keys after eating some leftovers from the fridge. I drove up the drive and saw Caroline looking like a zombie walking up to the door. I followed her inside and she made her way down into the basement.
"Caroline, let me out" He winced as he grabbed onto the door, his knuckles turned white as he tried to keep his balance.
Caroline moved her hand to the lock, but then stopped "You bit me" She stared at him, looking confused.
"You liked it, remember?" He told her sternly "Open the door"
Careline backed away "Why do I keep remembering the same things in different ways?" She asked him, shaking her head"
Caroline swallowed and step towards the door. I ran forward and stopped her hand from touching the door.
"Oh, Damon. Nice trick with the mind thing when she was far away" I smirked. He looked at me up and down.
"Nice Bikini" Shit! I forgot to put on a jacket. In the time I used my hands to cover myself but Caroline took that opportunity and open the gate but Zach came running in.
"NO! RUN!" But it was too late. The door was open. I shoved Caroline towards the door and ran behind her. I stopped because there was no sound made behind me. I heard Caroline open the door. Good, she is safe. I walk down the steps to see Damon have Zach in a choke hold. Zach's feet are not touching the ground.
Damon turned his head and looked straight at me. I started to run when I heard a snap. He killed him... He killed Zach.
I begin my way up the stairs when his hand grabbed my ankle and pulled my only thing that protected me off vampires other than my bracelet, my ankle bracelet.
I got up and started to run again but he finally grabbed me and twisted me around and looked straight into my eyes
"Don't move" He said looking straight into my eyes.
"Ah, Fuck you" I shot at him when I tried to move.
"You're so beautiful" I rolled my eyes.
"Let me go. I'm tired of this." I'm getting annoyed.
"I can't do that. You're my leverage." He held up his hand and I noticed that he wasn't wearing his daylight ring. I smirked and relaxed.
"Seems like you are in a bit of a pickle" I kept my smirk and he just smirked back. He looked towards my neck and leaned in and kissed it.
"When I get out of this compulsion, I'm to punch you again with my broken hand" I really need to get this cast off. It's starting to bug me.
"Well, I don't want to hurt you, so stay here and chill. Don't leave the house" He said looking straight into my eyes. I can finally move and the first thing I do was punch him in the face.
"That's for Zach" I went to go pour myself some of Damon's Bourbon.
"Ow, you wound me" He said putting his hand on his nose and the other hand on his heart.
"Go, do whatever you need to do and get that stupid ring back so I can leave." I said sipping my Bourbon and laying down on the couch. Damon just smirked and left the house. The sun just set. This is going to be a long night.
Review? :D
