"So, this was awkward…" Rebecca said, trying to relieve the mood, not very successful.
"You think? I don't understand that girl, at all… seriously, she's just too unpredictable. Who would guess she would come here just to ask me if moved on, while she is with Damon?" He was still confused and didn't realize it had actually happened. For him, it was still just a bad dream, it did not just happened. And he said it out loud without the intention of doing it. Talk about Elena that way in front of Rebecca was stupid.
"Right, it shows that she still likes you, a lot actually." She was just too sad to hide it. She was caught off guard. She quickly putted herself together, but Stefan saw the sadness in her eyes for those seconds.
"I don't care about that. When I said I've moved on, I was serious about that. It wasn't a joke. I don't want you to think that because of this scene I'm gonna go back to her arms. Because I'm not." He was serious, and looking into her eyes, showing her he wasn't lying.
But it wasn't enough. Rebecca had been deceived to many times in words like those to believe them so easily this time. "I know you want to believe that. But it will always be her Stefan. Even if you don't see it, Elena will always be your first choice. I understand that, really. She's beautiful, smart and she's in love with you." Rebecca couldn't understand how those words were getting out of her mouth. She doesn't understand for a second why Elena was everyone's first choice. And it annoyed her so much.
"You're wrong Rebecca. I mean, I admit that she was my first choice once, it would be a huge lie if I don't admit it…" And this broke Rebecca's heart into pieces. She couldn't hear one more word. But Stefan wasn't finished "… But she's not anymore. Of that I can assure you. I wouldn't say it if it wasn't true. You have to believe me Rebecca. I know what I'm feeling." Now he finished and Rebecca was happier than when she was in the beginning of the phase.
"I really wanted to believe you, but I can't. You were just to in love with her to just move on like that… What made you move on? She has hurt you before, and you kept on loving her with all of your heart. What made you take this step now?" She wanted to believe, to be happy for him. But she just couldn't. It was too suspicious. Too suspicious.
"Well, I don't know. But I know that to move on completely… I need you by my side Becca. Can you do that?" The thoughts spending through her mind were tumbling. Stefan wanted her by his side? What the hell does that mean?
"I guess… But I don't really want to keep on this conversation. Can we do what I came here to do and have a little fun?" She was tired of that conversation. She would think about that later, eventually. Right now, she just wanted to have a good time with Stefan.
"Of course! Come in, let's start the fun!" His expression went from seriously serious to amused and cheerful in a meter of seconds. It was a little creepy, but Rebecca didn't mind, she just went with it.
Meanwhile in the mansion, Klaus and Caroline were still hugging. They didn't want to let each other go. It was like if they let go for even a second… They would die.
"I really enjoy this, but are you sure you are ok Caroline? You know I would never let you go right? You are too important!" He was concerned and it shows in his voice.
"Yes, I just thought for a second there that you were actually letting me go, you know? You scared me… But, tell me, where were you getting to with that conversation if you weren't breaking up with me?" Caroline looked up, to see his eyes, he was lost in thoughts. But quickly came back and returned the look.
"I don't know love. I just think that my life… I don't know, I just have too many enemies and what if they try to hurt you to get to me? You are one of the few people that I would do anything to have you back if someone took you away, anything to keep you safe. And I don't want you so suffer because of me." He was too sad and mad at himself. The struggle and pain inside him was back.
"I know how to take care of me Klaus. I would suffer more if we were apart then I would if shoot me a wooden bullet and throw me into a lake of vervain." Of course she was exaggerating, but he knew what she was trying to say.
"Always so cheery love." Klaus being sarcastic, that made her laugh.
"You know what I meant…" She was now smiling and not thinking about the conversation theme of moments ago.
"Yes, Caroline Forbes always being positive about what may happen." The sarcasm again, she was actually enjoying that Klaus.
"So, I want to ask you something, but you have to promise you won't say no…" He was curious, but there was no way he was going to accept it before knowing what he was accepting.
"No way, you tell me first and then I may accept. That's the way things work." He putted a smirk on his lips.
"But then you have to promise to think about it, okay?" She was looking at him with an almost begging look, so he just nodded. He could think about it.
"Good, so, we're having a dance in school and I would like you to come with me." When she saw Klaus's disapprove look she just got unbearable "Please! Come on, it's important for me. I'm going, if you don't come I'll be there all alone. Dancing alone, all depressed. Do you want me to fell depressed? No right? So you have to come! Please, please, please!" She seemed a little girl asking for a doll she saw on the store.
"But who said you had to go? I can think of some things that wouldn't live you depressed if you stayed here with me instead of going to some dance…" His look was sexy and provocative.
"We can do that whenever we want, the dance is only happening once, everyone will be there. Even Rebecca is coming, and I really want to go! Come on, for me?" Caroline could be very persuasive when she wanted to.
"Okay, I'll go. But under one condition!" He was being defeated, and she knew it. But she knew that to win, she had to accept his condition or nothing done.
"Okay, what is it?" she had to admit, she was curious. He accepted too easily.
"I won't have to be nice to anybody and I won't have talk to anybody. I'm just going to be there with you. Ok?" His eyes were serious, but his mouth was smiling.
"Ok… I would like you to talk a little with people and socialize a bit, but it's good enough that you're actually going." She smiled and then kissed him has a reward for him to accept so easily. "Thank you." Beside the fact that she knew he would be cranky all dance and ask her to live sooner. She liked the fact that he was trying.
"I think we have talked much for now, don't you think?" Klaus had a malicious and sexy at the same time look, and it turned her on really fast. It was enough for him to give her a look like that and she surrenders right away.
He started kissing her lips, and then he went down towards her neck kissing and biting through the way.
"I think we should go to the room." Caroline was already out of breath.
"If that's what you want…" And in a meter of seconds they were in his room, in his bed.
Stefan and Rebecca were eating snacks, watching stupid TV shows and laughing. They were having fun.
"This show is just ridiculous. What has happened to the human kind since the twenties?" Rebecca was laughing of Stefan's figures.
"I don't know. They just had evolved their sense of humor I guess." Stefan said also laughing. But then he turned the volume of the TV down. And Rebecca looked at him. "I wanted to ask you something…"
"Ask then. What is it?" Rebecca spoke in a friendly tone.
"You know about the dance they are making in school right?" He was a little nervous.
"Yes, what about it?" She started smiling. Was he going to ask to the dance? Really? She was feeling good.
"Well, I wanted to know if you would like to come with me… Would you?" Now he was at the peak of nervousness.
"Really?" She expressed a surprised look. "Yeah, sure. I would like that very much." She said cheerful.
"Good, for moments I thought you were going to say no, because of the rough beginning of the date…"
Date? Was that a date? Rebecca was cheering in joy inside. Wow. She was in a date with Stefan and didn't realize it.
Stefan looked at her surprise face felt regret "I'm sorry, this isn't a date for you, is it?" He thought he screwed it all up.
"It is! I'm not surprised for the negative side. I'm sorry. It's just the first time you say that we're in a date. I kind of like it…" And she smiled and blushed.
