As I'm pulling up in Elena's drive, my phone starts to ring and it's the one person who I never want to see ever again. I decline it so he knows I'm ignoring him and hopefully he'll get the message and leave me the hell alone.
I walk up to the front door and knock urgently. Thankfully Elena is in and opens the door but I can tell by her face that she knows what's just happened, probably Damon gave her the heads up.
"What a dick!" She moves to the side for me to walk in and thank god I don't have to explain it to her but at least she agrees with me that he's a dick, well she already hated him anyway.
"Tell me about it!" I walk in and go straight to the kitchen. Ever since my mom died Elena's house has literally been my second home so I'm pretty aware of where everything is. I just need a drink, not blood or alcohol just good old coffee so I make my way to the coffee machine which is empty.
"Hey, let me make it" I thank her with a nod, I just need to sit down and breathe. I walk back to the counter and sit on the stool. I just lean on the table with my head in my hands and let out a sigh of frustration! I'm so angry right now that my blood is literally boiling.
"I just can't believe he would do that! I mean he just broke the trust that he worked so hard to gain by one stupid act. He did it without a flinch of guilt or any emotion for that matter. I guess I just don't mean anything to him anymore, well he has moved on with Hayley and his child." She passes me a mug filled with the delicious coffee I've been craving. "Compelling me. That's the worse thing he could've done to me right now. I literally cannot trust anyone."
"You can always trust me" she looked slightly hurt and it was my fault. I can't do anything right.
"With the exception of you and of course Stefan. I know he doesn't know what happened with Damon and I when I was human but he has to know that taking away my free will to get what he wants is going to hurt me. Does he not think of anyone apart from him and his family. I hate him!" I'm just feel so hurt and betrayed from his actions, I'm just letting the words flow out of me.
"Maybe you are right, maybe he doesn't care about you anymore and that he prefers his new girlfriend compared to you." My mouth is wide open, I just can't believe she would say that! It's true but she didn't have to put it that bluntly.
"Lena! I know you are right but I thought we were at least friends."
"Caroline, just face the fact that he doesn't give a shit about you or your feelings anymore." Somethings not right!
"Elena, what's wrong with you?"
"The fact that you can't grip that no one loves or cares about you like that. You're always going to be second best." What the hell is going on with her! I get up to leave but she stands in my way. "You need to understand that your friends don't care about you the way they used too, you're basically just a pity party ever since your blood bag of a mother died." Realisation hits me like a ton of bricks. I can't believe it!
"Silas." I run to the front door but he's there in front of me again blocking my escape route. He's now changed into his real form and grabs me by the shoulders and squeezes them really hard. The pain was immense but I did what any girl would do in a situation where a man grabbed her. I kicked him where the sun does not shine and it worked as he keeled over in pain. It was nice to see him in pain for once although it didn't seem to least long as this crippling throb in my head started. I fall down on my knees with my hands on my head. It hurts so bad, I can't think, move, or speak but I can hear him chuckling with a sinister laugh.
"Didn't you think I played a convincing Elena?" He bends down to me and lifts my chin with his finger so now I'm looking at the real Silas who looked like Stefan. "You'll soon be mine" He disgusts me more than Klaus right now.
"Where's El-Elena?" I manage to croak this out and I'm trying to stand up but it's not working, I just keep collapsing.
"Safe..." He stands up and walks to the wooden table and breaks a leg off, turning it now into the one thing that can kill me, a stake. He walks towards me but I shuffle back as far as I could until I hit a wall. He grabs my hair in a tight grip and pulls me up so I'm standing in front of him, face to face. I'm shaking right now, I can't run or escape. He's terrifying me, what has he done to Elena? Is he going to kill me now? A tear falls from my eye and he has this sinister smirk as he notices. He tightens his grip on my hair and throws the stake in the air, catching it quickly with his vamp speed and stakes me in the stomach. "For now!" Then he was gone.
I'm pulling the table leg out of my stomach. I'm scream as loud as I can because I'm using all the strength I have to pull it out and it's taking so long! It feels like every single one of my organs is dying, the pain would have probably killed me if I was human but I've been staked a few times in the stomach but it kills every time. The stake finally comes out and my hands are all covered in blood so I wipe them on my jeans!
There's no time to think, I just have to get back to Salvatore's house. I grab on to anything that will keep me steady instead of collapsing and make my way to the kitchen. My wound should've healed by now! No time to think about that, Elena's life is in danger!
I grab my phone and start to dial Elena's number but it kept going to voicemail. Oh my god, what if he really has her to get to me. I can't let another one of my best friends die because of me. I grab my car keys and flash to the car. Which one is quickest, taking my car or using my vamp speed? The Salvatore house is not far from here, I can flash there.
I flash through the forest, which I consider to be a short cut but I'm still weak as I'm still not fully recovered from Silas' attack on my brain and body. I finally reach the boarding house, I regain my breath and open the door to be greeted with Damon, Stefan, Klaus and the person I was talking to not only a few minutes ago.
"Elena?"
"Care, where have you been? I was worried! Care, what the hell happened to you?" I walk towards her, eyeing her warily. I grab the wall to keep me steady and Klaus rushes towards me to help me balance, I'm angry at him but I need the balance. He wraps his arm around my waist while his other arm is around my wrist, shivers ran through me by his touch and he noticed too as he looked me deep in the eyes but I can't be sucked back into them again not for what happened. Stay focused Caroline, for all you know this is Silas again! So I turn my attention back on Elena.
"Prove your Elena!"
"Care, what are you on about?" She looks so confused, is it really her?
"Lena, please just prove to me it's you!"
"Okay, for your 18th birthday we had a funeral for you instead of a birthday party to commemorate your past life but also to welcome your new one, plus me and Bonnie got in an argument that night too." Good it's her! She's safe. I run to her and literally jump on her giving her a long hug. It physically hurts me to do this but I don't care and floods of tears come out! I thought Silas was going to kill her just to get to me. "Care, what happened?"
"I thought Silas kidnapped you!" She pulls me back and wipes my tears away with her thumb.
"Silas did this to you?" I can feel the anger radiating from klaus as he spoke to me, why is he angry. He doesn't care about me. I ignore him and turn back to Elena to tell her what happened.
"I went to your house and you were there, well I thought it was you until he started to put a lot of doubts in my mind about myself but then he talked about my mom in a disgusting manner and I knew it wasn't you. I tried to run but stopped me so I kicked him in his jewels and he did that brain frazzling thing on me while staking me and told me he had you and was going to harm you."
"Hey, I'm okay!" I look down at this point because I feel so guilty that she could've been hurt. "Caroline, look at me!" So I did, I looked into those big brown eyes. "I'm fine! Stop worrying, okay?" I just nod at her while taking a huge breath of air before relaxing my very tense body.
"I need a drink." And I mean alcohol this time. She chuckles at this.
"Do you know what, me too?" I give a little chuckle back. She takes a step back to fully look at me and obviously sees my white crop top all bloody but that's when I notice everyone is staring at me like I'm this fragile little doll.
I start to feel really dizzy, why do I feel dizzy?
"Care, you're not healing properly! I think you still have splinters in you"
"Well that explains why the room is spinning!" I try to have a little bit of sarcasm in my voice but it doesn't work as everyone including Klaus looks worried. "Well can someone help get them out before you know, I die" I chuckle slightly before a pain in my head begins and my vision is blurry. I feel so weak that I can't keep myself standing, my legs collapse beneath me but someone catches me and the next thing I know I'm in someone's arms being carried upstairs. I know exactly who's carrying me with that sweet scented cologne, the same person who did this the last time.
"Caroline, love." His soft voice is the last thing I hear before everything goes dark.

Please comment what you think of the story so far ?
Will Caroline ever forgive Klaus?
Will Silas get Caroline to turn off her emotions?
