Chapter 6: Stefan and Damon are WHAT?
I spent my whole Saturday sleeping in and getting homework done. By the time everything was complete, it was almost 6 at night! I had decided to take this new free time to go visit Elena. It was a really nice night, so I walked. The silence gave me time to think about everything. What could be so dangerous about Damon that Elena would have to hide it from me? Something did seem a little off about him. He seemed really sweet, but also arrogant and narcissistic. I walked up to the door.
"Hey there stranger," Aunt Jenna teased.
"Hey Auntie Jenna, Elena in?"
"Right upstairs,"
"Thanks Aunt J," I said as I ran upstairs to Elena's door. Before I could open it, I heard her talking about me.
"I need to tell her the truth Stefan. She's getting suspicious and I hate keeping this from her. Summer's my best friend, I trust her…Tomorrow, I'll tell her tomorrow."
I opened the door and leaned on the side of her doorway. She froze, staring at me.
"You can tell her now." I said. Elena sighed and went back to the phone.
"Stefan, she's here. Yeah, come by in 10 minutes. Okay bye." She turned to me. "Hey."
"Hey." I sat next to her on her bed. An awkward silence passed and Elena and I hadn't moved or spoke.
"Elena, you were right."
"About what?"
"About telling me the truth. You've been acting weird all week. All of you. At the party, the Damon thing. What's going on Elena?" she sighed.
"Summer, you wouldn't believe me if I told you…"
"Try me. I promise to listen. No matter how ridiculous it sounds…"
"Stefan…is a vampire." My eyes widened. Stefan is a what? I scoffed.
"Haha very funny…" She looked at me seriously and my smile went away. She wasn't kidding.
"You're serious." She nodded. I was stunned. I didn't know what to say. I mean, my best friend's boyfriend is a vampire. But wait.
Damon is Stefan's brother. That would mean…
"That's why you wanted me to stay away from Damon…" I realized.
"Yes, see Stefan drinks animal blood. He won't hurt you. Damon on the other hand…doesn't."
Oh my God. Damon drinks human blood. Was he responsible for all the past animal attacks? After all the times I'd been around Damon and I later find out that he could've killed me whenever he wanted. I began to wonder…what was I to him? Was he only trying to get close to me so he could kill me in the long run?
"You and Stefan were only trying to protect me…"
"Yes…" Elena and I turned to the window and saw Stefan standing there. I got up suddenly.
"H-how did you do that?"
"Summer, it's okay. He won't hurt you remember?" I calmed down a bit and sat back on Elena's bed.
"Summer, I know this is hard for you to handle…but I know my brother. And I couldn't trust him near you because I don't know what would happen. I told him to stay away from you but forcing Damon to do something is even more dangerous…"
"Elena…those stories you told me, about Mr. Tanner and Vicki…" she nodded for me to continue. "Damon killed him didn't he?"
She looked down but nodded.
"Vicki didn't leave town did she?"
Elena shook her head. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. The Damon who walked me home, bought me roses and cuddled with me, was a monster.
"How do you feel about this Summer?" Elena asked me.
How did I feel about this? How was I supposed to feel about all this? Honestly…I was flustered. My mind was everywhere and it was a lot of difficult (and impossible!) information to handle.
"I-it's a lot to take in. But I believe you…and I'm glad you told me." She smiled and I inhaled and got off the bed.
"I'm gonna head home,"
"I think I should walk you home. Answer any questions you might have…" Stefan said. I nodded and walked out Elena's room, Stefan following behind me.
"I'll see you tomorrow?" She nodded.
The first moments of the walk were silent, I didn't really know what to say to Stefan, but he did say he would answer any questions.
"So…um how can you guys walk in the sun?" He held up his hand with his fancy ring on his index finger.
"This ring protects me. Damon has one, too." I nodded.
"Can you guys eat garlic?"
"Yes."
"What about holy water?
"It's drinkable."
"The mirror thing?"
"That's a myth."
"Crucifixes?"
"Decorative,"
"Wow ok. Is there anything that hurts you guys?"
"Stakes through the heart kill us and there's a plant called vervain that weakens us. Which reminds me, this is for you." He handed me a delicate silver necklace with a deep violet jewel on the front.
"Stefan, it's beautiful."
"It has vervain in it. It'll protect you from Damon's mind compulsion."
"Thank you Stefan. You know, I wasn't sure about all this at first. But if Elena can take it than so can I. You're good for her Stefan, she's lucky to have you. And I hope we can become good friends." He smiled.
"I hope so too. You know, you remind me of an old friend of mine. Lexi, she was just like you. Strong, fun, sweet."
"Was?"
"She uh-died. Damon killed her."
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry." He nodded. "You and Damon…what's the whole story? I mean, he told me about a girl you both fought over and then she died."
"Well, that was back in 1864."
"Whoa…your old!" He chuckled.
"Yeah, I am…"
"What was her name?" I asked him seriously.
"Her name was Katherine, and yes we both loved her. She turned us, but our love wasn't real. At least mine wasn't. She used us, and I can say that I've done some things that I'm not proud of when it came to her, but I'm no longer crippled by her loss. Damon is another story. That's why you have to stay away from him Summer. He's a monster, I don't know why he's gotten so close to you, but knowing Damon, it's not good."
"Thanks Stefan. For everything." He smiled and nodded. Before I got inside, a question popped into my head.
"Oh, um, I meant to ask you…can vampires…manipulate your dreams?"
"If they're strong and you're not wearing vervain, yes."
"That bastard." I muttered to myself, thinking of all the dreams I had of Damon. The whole time, I thought it was me, but Damon had invaded my dreams! Ugh, that asshole!
"Why?" he asked curiously.
"Oh, it's…nothing. Goodnight Stefan."
"Night, Summer."
I sat at my vanity and brushed through my wavy curls. Out of nowhere, I heard a noise suddenly somewhere in the house.
"Hello?" I yelled. No answer. I got up and slowly walked out of my room and down the hallway. I leaned my body on the wall behind me and crept into the kitchen. I looked around but saw nothing. I checked the living room next. Again, nothing. I sighed and decided that I was hearing things. I turned around and gasped when I saw Damon standing an inch away from me.
"Hello Summer,"
"D-Damon," I stuttered, stepping away from him. I could tell that he noticed the fear in my eyes. I quickly put a confident look on my face as he stared into my eyes.
"What're you doing here Damon?" He didn't say anything, but continued to look at me.
"You're afraid of me. So I'm gonna go on a limb here and guess…Elena finally told you the big secret." He said coming closer to me. I stood my ground, trying to look unafraid. "Nice PJs."
I blushed, remembering my lack of clothes. I was only wearing a tee with some really short shorts.
"What do you want Damon? I'd like for you to leave."
"What's the matter Summer? Afraid I might hurt you? Feed on you? Compel you to forget something I might do?"
"Isn't that what Katharine did?" His smirk disappeared I mentioned her name. He glared at me for a moment, then his smirk returned his face.
"So Stefan told you the whole story huh?"
"I heard enough."
"Oh I doubt that."
"Well which part did I miss? The part where she used both you and Stefan? Turned both of you into vampires? Or how about the part where she compelled you to hopelessly fall for her?" I said with an over amount of confidence.
What happened next….happened fast.
I immediately felt a searing pain on my back as I was thrown into the wall. I groaned as Damon held me to the wall.
"You think you know everything don't you Summer? You don't know anything! I could snap your neck right now and not give a damn about it…or better yet, get a taste…of that sweet blood of yours," My eyes widened. I was really afraid now. I could feel his lips trailing down my neck. I stiffened when I felt his fangs graze my skin. He pulled back and saw me shivering in fear and chuckled. I watched him walk to the door.
"You have a good night my dear Summer," he said opening the door and stepping out. Before he left, he poked his head back in.
"One more thing: you might wanna watch who you invite in from now on."
With that, he closed the door and was gone.
Eh? Eh?
Told you it wasn't such a big reveal.
Elena told her.
Big deal.
Buuut Damon came afterwards, so I guess it's ok...
:} Damon is always a yes yes...haha I'm such a loser :P
