Chapter 3

I blink my eyes repeatedly probably looking like an absolute freak. Did I just hear him correctly? Me beautiful?

I'm not even close to that word, I mean I consider myself pretty or just average but beautiful. No one has ever called me that, well except my parents, and that's kind of embarrassing. I never expected that from him though, should've I? Maybe I should just take the complement, but I want to know why he said that. There are so many better looking girls than me, and many girls have flirted with him and asked him out, but here he is calling me beautiful. I'm not sure if I should take this lightly or not.

I read somewhere when I guy calls you beautiful he is a keeper, or he wants something. Maybe he wants something, but what? I'm thinking too much into this, a guy calls you beautiful just take it and move on don't over think Elena.

He is biting his lip I can tell he is regretting telling me that.

Does he know he has this effect on me? Now that he said that I'm thinking things through differently. Like what if we became girlfriend and boyfriend? I know he would treat me right, he is so caring he wouldn't hurt anybody especially somebody he cared about. He would kiss me, and I know what his kisses feel and taste like. Then he would hug me from behind, just like Tyler does to Caroline, he would kiss my neck and make me feel all dizzy. And when we would make out it would be perfect, sometimes it would be slow and sensual and other times it would be hot and heavy. And when we make love-

stop it Elena, you can't think of these things, all those describe a perfect relationship, and he may be bad at all that stuff. And he hasn't even asked me out yet. Okay I need to calm down, all of this because he called me a word, an adjective. It could mean nothing.

"Ummm-" I start right before Bonnie and Matt come back with a packet of marshmallows

"hey guys" Matt says patting Stefan on his chest trying to get used to his surroundings. Stefan rolls his eyes at his friend. Bonnie smiles and begins speaking "Come on, let's go play the games with the others" she says walking forwards to where the rest of the party is, we all follow along and join the others for some party games.

Eventually Caroline and Tyler decided to join the party.

We all played the shots game, beer pong and duck duck goose, why we played that game I don't know, I think we were all pretty drunk.

By now most people had left and there was about 5 people left including me, Stefan, Caroline, Tyler, Bonnie and Matt. I only had six cups but everyone else had about – I don't even know, a lot, I know Matt has had too much.

While we were all laughing and struggling to keep on our feet someone yelled out "Let's play spin the bottle!" we all agreed and sat down in a circle, I sat down next to Bonnie and Caroline, Caroline who was next to Tyler. Somebody placed a bottle in the middle and explained the rules "OKAY! Everybody listen, I will spin the bottle first and whoever it spins on I will dare them to do something, and whoever got the bottle will have to spin it next and yadayadayada, only dares because we aren't babies" he or she says I'm not really sure, I think I'm blind.

So let's say she spins it, and it lands on Caroline, both girls smirk, "I dare you to have a 15 second make out with Tyler" everyone makes "ohhlala" noises and Caroline shrugs and makes out with Tyler, for what I think was too long.

Another couple of spins and everyone is laughing, everyone kept doing kissing dares, eating grass dares or nude runs around the fire dares, I was happy I didn't get dared yet.

At one stage Bonnie was dared to kiss me, but it was only a peck, we were having fun. Yeah tonight was getting weird but it was still great. It was Caroline's turn to spin the bottle and it landed on Stefan, he only got dared once and that was to eat grass, it was pretty funny, as soon as he ate it he ate a handful of marshmallows to get rid of the taste.

Both Stefan and Caroline shared a smile; she had a cheeky look on her face she looked between me and Stefan. Then she whispered something to Tyler and he smiled and nodded a yes. She clapped and looked at Stefan. "I dare you too…" she paused for a moment trying to add dramatic effect; she was a Looney when she was drunk then again she was always a Looney.

"Kiss Elena" she squealed, just then my smile dropped slightly, it was like an embarrassed smile. He bit his lip while smiling and looked over at me, most of the boys were doing wolf whistles.

I look over to Caroline and she gives me a wink and I frown at her, when I turn back to Stefan I smile again, this was so awkward. If only they knew what happened earlier, or the fact that we have kissed before.

Buts its okay right because we are friends

He is across from me so he has to crawl over to me. I would move but I'm stuck, I feel like I can't breathe, this is different from the first kiss, because I wasn't really expecting it the first time and I didn't have much time to think about it. He is now in front of my face, his hands pressed to the ground, he is inches away from my face, he keeps leaning in until Caroline speaks again

"For ten whole seconds" she says like a little girl. She was enjoying this wasn't she, I didn't have time to look at her because Stefan was so close, he sighed when Caroline giggled this, I think it was a nervous sigh I'm not sure. His lips were inches away from mine, so I closed my eyes and waited for him to kiss me. He softly brushed his lips across mine and then dived in, our lips moved with one another's, sucking gently. It felt like he was kissing me forever. His lips were just as soft as last time except this time I got to really taste his lips and feel them on my own, and boy did they feel good. His lips matched mine perfectly.

Usually when the others kissed each other, it was either quick or a major tongue make out. But this one was slow; it was as though he wanted to actually feel my lips and explore them. With every second that passed my heart beat faster. Now that I had a taste of him I couldn't get enough, he tasted so sweet...

When someone noticeably coughed Caroline spoke "Oh.. oh! oh yeah stop" she broadcasted remembering what was happening. And when she said this Stefan gave me one last peck and moved out slowly , we both opened our eyes, his eyes showed so much passion at that moment. He licked his lips and moved back to his position and ran his hand through his hair. He looked so shy.

At that moment I missed his lips on mine, they were like a forbidden fruit, I know I shouldn't be having it but I just can't get enough. Oh god what has he done to me? Everyone is trying to hide their smile. But Bonnie and Matt look a bit shocked as well.

Caroline noticeably coughs to break the silence and claps her hands trying to get rid of tension, she hated tension. "Ok! Stefan your turn to spin the bottle" she smiles. He shakes his head "Oh yeah right" he looks at me once before placing his hand on the bottle and focusing on it. He spins it.

Everyone continues playing the game, and I can't stop thinking about that kiss, I place a finger on my top lip running it down to my bottom lip and leaving it there for a while. I think it's safe to say that I like and I have feelings for Stefan Salvatore.


Stefan is shy, but he will come around.
