We were in the same route where we had stopped earlier. It was broad day light again and we were just a few hours away from home. Back to reality.
Elena had been quiet most of the time. I wondered what she was up to.
"So why did you bring me with you?" She asked righteously as if she had the right to know.
"Well you're not the worst company in the world, Elena." I told her sarcastically. She cocked her head waiting for the real answer. "You should give yourself more credit."
She raised her eyebrows. "Seriously?"
"I don't know…" I really didn't. "You were there in the road…all damsel-in-distress-like and I know it'd piss off Stefan. And…you're not the worst company in the world, Elena."
She kept smiling shaking her head. I wouldn't admit to any reason she had in her head. Because…those were her ideas and stuff, I did all that stuff for those reasons…not because I cared that she was in a bad position.
She tilted her head back and said "I used to be more fun!"
"You did okay…" I told her carefully.
"I saved your life. "She told me, sweetly…and righteous.
I cocked my eyebrow and looked at her. "I know."
"And don't you forget it." She was so cute looking when she told me that, all smiley and pretty. I smiled as I looked at what I know it would be our spot. We were about to enter Mystic Falls…now back to reality.
I had found someone I could maybe trust on. And…I think, I'm okay with that.
