Bonnie POV

To say I was pissed would be an understatement. I was beyond angry, furious, and ticked all put together. Not one of the supernatural creatures that claimed they would be actually arriving at school showed up. So, not only did they lie to us- Elena was told the same thing I was about them actually coming to school- they ditched us by not saying a word of where exactly it was that they were going.

Elena was a lot less upset than I was. She tried to reason with me that maybe they- as in, the vampires- got hungry before school started, so they decided to go hunting. That… was believable… but normally Damon would call me to let me know something came up. When I asked my best friend about Tyler, she simply said that "He's Tyler. He probably decided he didn't want to go to school and just ditched. It's not as if he hasn't done that before."

It was pretty damn amazing, how she could have an excuse for everything. But, even though it was tough to find fault in what she was saying, that didn't stop me from being upset. Any of them could've picked up the phone for two seconds and sent me a text or voicemail. But no. They didn't, and that's what ticked me off more than anything. If I didn't know that my vampire lover was…well, a vampire, and therefore could easily fight off anyone that tried to touch him or his brother, I would be seriously worried right now, and would be saving my anger for later. Unfortunately for the three missing mythical creatures, I knew they could handle themselves very well.

The two of us- well, just me, with Elena trailing behind- stormed into the boarding house that all three were currently at. Zach greeted us in the foyer.

"What's up, girls? The boys aren't in, if that's who you're looking for."

Elena, being the only one able to speak reasonably, answered, "Yeah, that's who we're looking for. Any idea where they're at?"

Zach's gray (1) eyes turned confused, "Didn't they tell you in class? Stefan had foot ball practice today, and Damon decided to stay after for some reason. I just got their call. They said they'd be home soon…"he trailed off.

I could envision Elena's blue eyes get wider, and her mouth drop open, "Wh-what do you mean at school? They weren't in today. I thought you knew that. And you can't attend practice unless you make at least a half a day of school."

The vampire's guardian- I use that term loosely, seeing as he wasn't exactly responsible for the two of them- had a mixed look of confusion, anger, and shock plastered on his face before the usual mask of soberness returned, "They didn't go? Well, that's… odd. I'll give them a call and see where exactly it is that they went to."

Zach whipped his phone out of his pocket, punched a few buttons, and held it up to his ear. He started speaking almost instantly to whoever was on the other line, and, at that point, I couldn't help but get a bit angry that he wasn't the least bit upset about what was happening. After all, the two vampires that live with him- and that he publicly claims responsibility for are missing, and he acts as if nothing's happening. It was tempting to slap him at this point to see if he would finally see reason…

The call must've ended at that point- once I was done my mental rant- because Zach hung up the phone and stuck it back into his back pocket. Elena- who had moved next to me in the past couple minutes- and I looked at him, curious as to what the latest news update was.

"Stefan said they'd be home in a few minutes, and to just hang in 'till than. They'll explain everything once they get back."

"More like lie their way out of trouble," I mumbled under my breathe.

With those words, Zach left the room. Elena and I didn't bother trying to find him. We knew he'd join us again once the guys got home. He didn't show it well, but he was just as anxious to hear their excuse as I was.

My best friend and I walked into the living room. The gigantic living room that was really to big to be even called that. But, there was no better name for it.

"What do you think they're excuse is going to be?" Elena asked me once we plopped ourselves down on the couch.

"I couldn't tell you. Probably something about them going to school, but getting hungry on the way there, so they stopped for hunting."

"Mmmm, I don't know. I think something about Tyler. He needed help, or he wanted to go hunting and invited them along."

I snorted, "Doubt that. They all hate each other. Why would Tyler invite them?"

Elena shrugged as best she could with her shoulders squished in the pillows of the couch, "Bonding time."

"Still doubt it."

"Wanna make a bet about it?" she asked suddenly.

"What?"

"Want to… make a… bet out-" Elena enunciated slowly, as if she was talking to a preschooler.

I laughed, "I got that part, but why?"

"I don't know… cause I'm bored beyond reasoning and need something to do."

"Go do your homework."

"Noooo… that's not fun. This is. That, and it'll take my mind off of everything so, by the time everyone gets back, I won't care, and won't hear they're excuse."

I groaned, "Fine. What're we betting?"

"Twenty bucks to whoever gets their excuse right."

"But what if we're both off?"

"Twenty to whoever's the closest."

"But what if-"

"Don't you start with me. Let's just stick with these rules, and if no one is close, we'll settle it later, commprende?"

"Si."

She stuck her tongue out at me before sticking her head on the pillow and sighing deeply. "Now, we wait!"

"SI!"

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Lucky for Elena, who was about to fall asleep on the couch, we didn't have to wait long. About five minutes after Zach called them, Damon and Stefan were standing in front of us with their "guardian" at their side, who went to sit next us.

His gray eyes were somber, serious, and meant no fooling around when he ordered, "Explain. Now."

This… would be interesting…
