Chapter 3
( 6 Hours later )
I woke up slowly I soon heard the attendant say " We shall be landing in Mystic Falls, Virginia. Please prepare for our descent." I sat up and soon enough we had landed. I turned back on my phone and checked the time which had already updated to west coast time. It was 6 :55, I was basically on time. After picking up my backpack I quickly left off the plane heading to baggage claim. After a moment I found it and waited for my bag to arrive. 20 minutes passed before the belt began to move soon I saw my Duffel. I hurried forward and grabbed it then headed towards pick up where I proceeded to look for Caroline and if i knew her, it wouldn't be hard.
"STILES!" I heard suddenly then felt something bang into me. Yup that didn't take long. I slowly turned and looked at my attacker who was no other than Miss Caroline Forbes ladies and Gentlemen. Not to brag, but my cousin was probably one of the most beautiful women I knew. She was around 5'8 with long blonde curls that would cascade down her shoulders. She was wearing a strapless tight baby blue sundress that exposed her breast with a pair of black combat boots (bold choice) and then I looked at her face to see her amazing smile that always brightened my day and her ocean blue eyes. Boy, did I miss my cousin.
"Hey Caroline it's been awhile." I said wrapping her in my embrace looking up to see aunt Liz I smiled.
"It's been 6 years , 4 months , 34 days , 9 hours and " she paused to stared at her watch " 12 minutes since I saw you last " she said with a giant smile.
"Careful Caroline, your inner nerd is showing." I said rushing to hide behind my Aunt and held unto her for protection. Aunt Liz is Beautiful in her own way. With short dirty blond hair and the same eyes as her daughter but hers were a deeper blue so pretty checking out her outfit she was wearing her police uniform guess being a cop ran in the family. Aunt Liz is my dad's younger sister by 6 years.
"Come on kiddies I have things to do and I really don't feel like getting in between another one of you too idiots legendary fights." she said smiling it's true though when me and Caroline fought we yelled and sometimes got physical. Quietly we followed her to the car and after 15 minutes we were at her house. She dropped me and Caroline off and let for work, soon after Caroline showed me my room and helped me get situated.
" Where is all your stuff?" she said in a curious tone
" Okay so I left them at home cause I thought you could give me a makeover because wait for it … I'm Gay."
"I KNEW IT!" wait what?
" huh " I said confused creasing my brows
" yeah I always thought you were , mainly because when you visited back when we were 9 you kissed Tyler Lockwood " oh gosh really she's bringing that up again.
" THAT'S CAUSE YOU AND ELENA DARED ME " I screamed blushing from embarrassment
"omg best idea we can go shopping tomorrow since it's a weekend and tonight we can go out and meet up with the gang so you can meet everyone again new and old!" She said with a giant smile on her face and hope in her eyes " Ugh alright let's go." I said hearing her bust into a fit of giggle and bouncing around. Geez, she was energetic . After she texted everyone to meet at The Grill not mentioning she was bringing me, I took off my hoodie and only wore my leather jacket. I checked myself out in the mirror and I gotta admit I look pretty sexy. I didn't do my hair so it was everywhere like I just had sex so yeah I look hot. After I stopped checking myself out I grabbed my phone and wallet then we headed out deciding to walk to the grill. It was only a six minute walk that I knew by heart because we always went there when I visited . Entering, Caroline began to hold my hand. I didn't question it, she's done it before. We began to walk to a table where I recognized only four of the seven people, and as soon as my eyes landed on Elena she smirked but said nothing knowing something was gonna happen once we got in front of the all eyes we're on us.
"Caroline you didn't say stiles was coming!" Elena said hopping up from her seat to hug me. I hugged her back and when I let go she kissed my cheek. When I looked back at the table everyone had different looks but all similar towards *what the fuck* aha this was too fun.
"Everyone this is Stiles , Stiles this is Matt, Jeremy which you know, Tyler, Damon Elena's boyfriend , Stefan Damon's brother and Bonnie Bennet me and Elena's best friend" each person waved when introduced except Damon who's eyes I swear turned black I think I heard about that from Deaton before but whatever.
" Hi as Caroline said I'm Stiles." "Ha!" I heard and when I looked it was Damon who made the noise.
"Is there a problem?" giving him my best bitch face.
" What kind of name is stiles." I look at him like I could burn holes into his body. Caroline squeezed my hand knowing it's a sensitive subject.
" The kind you keep when it's the last thing your dying mother called you " I said anger seeping off every word. Elena eyes widened and she punched Damon and his eyes definitely turned black that time
"Oh hey I remember you , you use to visit every holiday to see Caroline. You we're always annoying." I look at the culprit of these words to be none other than Tyler Lockwood I smirked.
"You had no problem with me being annoying when my mouth was on yours." I said with an Evil Smile , Matt spit his drink out laughing, Elena laughed obviously remembering the day it was blushing but remained silent, I looked at Bonnie and she was laughing. She was kinda cute.
"Shut Up."Tyler mumbled and I leaned down and whispered into his ear "we could always do it again I wouldn't complain." I pulled back and he looked me in the eyes and I winked.
" Hi I'm Bonnie, we haven't met before." she stood up and walked over to me and held out her hand with a smile. As soon as she touched my hand I saw images flash through my head: Blood, dead people , Damon, Stefan, Caroline and Elena with fangs and Matt and Jeremy With guns. I quickly let go of her hand and she looked concerned. I backed away looking at everyone. Looking around I thought I saw Kara at the bar, but when I looked back she wasn't there. I groaned and realized everyone was still looking at me all lost .
I quickly walked over to Damon and asked what he was drinking "Bourbon why?" I quickly picked up his drink and swallowed it all in one swig then sat next to Jeremy and put my head down.
"Stiles are you okay?" I recognized the voice to be Elena's. I looked up and gave her a smile then replied.
" Yeah I'm fine caroline just left out a few details before we headed over here like on your free time You, her and these two" I said pointing at Damon and Stefan " like to drink Blood or the fact that Tyler freaking Lockwood is a hybrid and that little Jeremy is a fucking hunter let's not forget Bonnie the witch" I said in one breathe then rested my head back down " I don't need this shit right now "
" What? Vampire? what gives you that idea? " Caroline laughed nervously " Umm I don't know Caroline maybe the visions I just saw after I touched Bonnie? Or maybe it was Damon who's eyes kept fading black after Elena touched me?" Ii finished and everyone looked nervous.
"Do you hate me ?" Caroline said sounding like she was going to cry.
"Why would i hate you ?" I said confused
She lifted a brow " Because I'm a vampire you know evil blood sucker " she looked like she was about to cry.
" Okay and….. is that supposed to me something?" I said.
" Aren't you scared?" this time it was Matt who asked the question.
" One I'd just like to say Matt if you weren't so obviously straight, I would have asked if I could fuck you like five minutes ago and two no I'm not scared. Over the past year I watched my best friend turn into a werewolf, helped him kill his psycho alpha who turned out to be this others wolf that was helping us uncle, THEN I had to deal with my best friend crazy pants girlfriend who's grandpa kidnapped and beat me up! Ohhh and let's not forget the kana! So to answer your question no watching my cousin drinking a little blood isn't scary" I said exhaling and taking a sip of Jeremy's drink which was clearly spiked with Vodka. Looking around everyone looked surprised.
" Wait, So are you a witch? " bonnie said breaking the silence.
" No I'm a human ?" I said sarcastically because it's obvious I wasn't special.
" Only a witch can get visions from touching another witch." I looked at her like she was crazy "I'm not special believe me." I said trying to save the subject.
" How about we test it , if I'm wrong I won't press the matter, but if I'm right you have to let me train you deal?" she stuck out her hand I reached over and grabbed it " Deal" I said with a confident smirk.
" Alright let's all meet at Stefan's place I have the perfect test." Bonnie said with confidence and like that we all got up and headed to the Salvatore house. Everyone taking separate cars. I rode with Jeremy , Tyler , Matt and Caroline. It was a pretty quiet ride except for Caroline asking me 100 questions which I answered because I'm not stupid and I know how she is when she doesn't get her way.
When we arrived I stood amazed at the house in front of me it was huge and beautiful. I stopped swooning over the house and followed everyone to the back of the house. Everyone soon came to a stop in the middle of the back yard where there was a giant burnt spot. "Okay Stiles, here is a simple spell all you have to say is the word sana, but say it with energy behind it. Believe that you can heal any piece of this area and if it heals your a witch, if it doesn't then you're a normal 100 percent human boy". I thought about what she said and all I could hear in my head was heal so I closed my eyes then suddenly …
*flashback*
"Ha Ha come on Henrik you can do it just use the spell mom taught us see me and Kol did it " said a little girl showing me her flower she just grew from nothing .
" That's because your big kids Rebekah " I said pouting.
" Just remember rik magic is all about belief if you believe you can do it you will " said Kol as he approached me.
"I'll try again then " I said feeling the big smile upon my face.
* flashback end *
"STILES! STILES! OH MY GOD! BONNIE HURRY UP AND HELP HIM!" I could hear caroline screaming at the top of her lungs.
I opened my eyes and see everyone looking at me surprised and scared. I looked around and the area that was once burnt was now covered in fresh grass and flowers. Then I looked around and the whole backyard looked like a Florist paradise. It was covered in fresh grass and flowers both out of season and ones that didn't even grow in this region.
I looked back at Bonnie " What happened?"
She looked back at me with a confused look "I don't know but whatever it was you did this Stiles, you're a witch." she said with a laugh. I looked around the field of flowers I had just created. Searching the garden like it had all the answers, until I spotted a certain flower. A Dahlia, my mother's flower. Her favorite flower. I slowly crouched down and plucked the plant. Somehow, I felt closer to her maybe, even a little special, for the first time since she died.
"Am I finally special? Really?"
