Chapter 10!

Caroline pulled over to the side of the road and took out her phone. Elena had given her good advice about her situation, and she intended to go through with it. She was scared out of her mind though. If she texted Tyler what she was about to text him there would be no going back. There would be very little chance she would ever get him back. But she had decided who she wanted, and it wasn't Tyler.

She started typing, her hands shaking like crazy.

Tyler, I know u probly don't want to hear from me but I think breaking up was 4 the best. I hope we can still be friends. Im sorry for everything.

She pushed the send button. She instantly regretted sending it. He wasn't going to forgive her for awhile. She threw her phone in the back seat.

Then she started driving towards her real destination: Klaus.

She pulled up to the Mikaelson home with sweaty palms. She knew this was what she wanted, but that didn't mean she wasn't scared out of her mind. What if Klaus was still mad at her for ditching him last night? What if he rejected her? What if he said he never wanted to see her again?

Well, she knew that last one was a stretch, but it could still happen if he was pissed enough.

She hastily walked up to Klaus's door and knocked. Then she remembered there were other people living here, and she should've just texted Klaus to come outside so she didn't have to deal with Kol or Rebekah.

But she realized she didn't have to worry about it when Klaus opened the door.

"Caroline!" He smiled, "Come in." He moved his body to the side of the door so Caroline could walk in.

"Actually, I just need to talk to you." She looked down at her feet, "I have a speech prepared?"

Klaus was still smiling like a goofball, "Well, go on."

"Okay. Um…well, I know you're still mad at me for ditching you like that last night."

Klaus interrupted her, "I'm not mad at you love. If anything you should be mad at me for forcing that on you. I don't blame you for running away."

"Okay..well. Since this whole thing started, I know I've been really rude to you and everybody else, so I want to apologize. But that's not all, I spent the day with Elena and told her everything. And she gave me some really good advice.."

Caroline stopped, she didn't know if she could say the next part, but she did. "Klaus, I don't want Tyler…" her heart was beating faster now, "I want you."

Then, she took the biggest risk of the night, and pulled him in for their first real kiss.

XXXXXXX

Elena sat with Stefan in his bedroom. She had just gotten back from her day with Caroline and her head was reeling with all the drama. She wasn't complaining though, she had put Caroline and Bonnie through the exact same thing earlier that year.

"Are you sure you want to stay the night again? I mean, I love it when you do, but you haven't been back to your house since the accident and I'm sure Jeremy would like to spend some time with you."

Elena had been sleeping over at Stefan's every night since she had become a vampire. Sleeping was the only thing going on though. She had too much going on in her head to even think about sex, and Stefan too.

Stefan put his arm around her and she cuddled into him.

"Yeah, you're probably right. I just don't know if I can ever face that house again. Especially with Alaric gone now. I don't think Jeremy has slept there very much either."

Stefan rubbed her shoulder, "Elena, I know it's going to be hard, but you're going to have to face that house one day. I'll do anything I can to help you."

She smiled, "Thanks, but there's not much I can do. You're right, I just need to deal with it."

Elena's phone buzzed in her pocket. She picked it up and read the 2 new text messages.

Caroline:
Thnx 4 2day I had fun

Jeremy:
Staying a friends house 2night. Ill stop by and c u 2morrow.

Elena sighed, "So much for seeing Jeremy tonight. He's not going to be there."

"There's always tomorrow." Said Stefan.

"Yeah, I guess."

Elena turned and kissed him before texting Jeremy and Caroline back.

They sat there for a few minutes in silence. It wasn't awkward, just nobody said anything.

"I have a question." She said.

Stefan nodded.

"Why haven't you tried to make a move on me lately? You've barely even initiated kissing me." She smiled while she said it, so he would know she didn't mean it in a mean way.

"I know, I'm sorry." He smiled at her, "I just got you back though. I was trying to take things slow so I wouldn't stress you out more."

Elena laughed, "Thanks. But I've had two whole weeks of trying to take everything slow. I think it's time I sped my life up a bit."

"And how do you intend on doing that?" Stefan asked jokingly.

Elena pushed herself up off the bed and put one leg on the other side of Stefan so she was straddling him. He was taken aback because he wasn't expecting her to do anything, but he didn't mind in the least.

Elena leaned down and kissed him. She would never get used to how wonderful it felt kissing him as a vampire. Nothing could compare to it.

Thanks for reading everybody! I tried to include a bit more Stelena in this chapter, since I haven't been doing much of it at all. Hope you like this chapter and if you have anything to say about it remember to review!

Thanks

She deepened the kiss and ran her hands through Stefan's hair. She moved her hands down until they were at the hem of his shirt, and then she slowly pulled it off.

Stefan pulled back a bit, "Elena, are you sure? You've been through a lot lately and I don't want to pressure you."

She smiled at his concern, "I'm sure."
