One Lie Leads to Another

Stefan

"You KNOCKED UP MY GIRLFRIEND?!" Damon said in firy anger. I raised my eyebrow slightly.

Was he serious? She's not HIS girlfriend!

"You Son of a Bitch!" He gritted, before walking up to me in speed and punching my lower jaw. I grabbed on to the sofa and punched him in the lower gut. He groaned and quickly punched me in the same place, this time making me fall. As this was happening our Mom tried to make us stop.

"Damon stop!" Mom commanded him, while trying to restrain him. "Damon that's enough!" Dad commanded him with a yell. After Mom finally restrained him, his jet black hair was slightly dangling on his face, while my jaw was slightly dislocated and I had blood pouring out my lips.

"Stefan! Oh my god! Stefan, are you alright?!" Mom asked me in alarm when she noticed the blood dripping down my chin. "Yeah. I'm fine," I told her.

"And WE are keeping the baby!" I told Damon, to make him more pissed on purpose. "Yo..you're keeping it!?" Mom asked, actually a bit happy about it. "Yeah...yeah..we are." I told her softly. Damon scoffed and walked off. Dad sent him a glare, while mom went to get a first aid kit for me to patch me up.

Eventually, she as usual overreacted and took me to the hospital. After 3 hours had passed we all went back home.

Trying to sleep off an UNFORGETTABLE dinner.

The Next Day...

Katherine

Oh why! Why did I lie about that for?! I guess I just panicked. I didn't want Stefan to get in trouble with my parents, and as usual when I have the need to protect someone I care about I'd lie for them.

Wait... care about him!? That word I'm not sure about...

"Hey." I heard a voice say. I looked up from my closet and saw Jeremy near my bedroom doorway. "Hey." I said quietly to him. I was looking for an outfit today.

"So how are you doing?" He asked me concern. "I'm fine." I told him in confusion, but honestly. "I mean this whole 'pregnancy' thing...how are you?" He wondered. I thought it over briefly. Honestly, I had NO idea how to feel or deal with this situation, all I know is I'm kinda use to it now, but it's only the beginning so...

"I don't know. I'm kinda scared and well, terrified, but I'm sure I'll be alright." I said more to myself than to him. "Yeah...I still can't believe you're pregnant." He told me. I nodded at his 'shock' in this situation. It was understandable.

"And I can't believe a LOCKWOOD did it!" He said in spite. I hesitated before nodding slightly.

As I said before, Tyler and Jeremy trying to get along, was like playing with fire in a room full of actual TNT!

"Look, Katherine...I'm not happy with this situation and I'll GLADLY kick Lockwood's ass for this, but I'm gonna help you out. You're not gonna be alone in this. You're still my sister." He told me. I smiled slightly at him, knowing he was trying to protect me.

As annoying he can be he had his moments to be a sweet protective younger brother.

"My older, neurotic, insecure, pregnant, 'so to be fat', sister!" Jeremy quickly added. I glared daggers at him and threw an empty small box at him from my closet, but he quickly dodged it and let out a small laugh before walking off. I rolled my eyes at him.

Like I said before...ANNOYING!

The Lockwood's

Eventually, we all drove to the Lockwood mansion.

Oh boy.

I searched everywhere for Tyler as my parents were chatting with Carol and Richard Lockwood, Jeremy was looking for Tyler too, to beat him to a pulp, and Elena paid no one no mind.

This was just great!

"Katherine?" I heard a familiar voice say behind me, in the second hall way. I smiled in relief. I quickly turned to look at him. "Tyler hey!" I said nervously. "Hey. How are you? I haven't seen you in a while." He told me. I took in a deep breath and told him, with panic, "I need you to call Caroline, to call Stefan and get them both down here pronto!" Tyler looked at me blink-fully and asked, "W- why?"

"Because- last night- I told my parents I was pregnant and that you were the father,- but Stefan's really the father. It was a lie. I need to fix it- before it's too late. So will you- PLEASE- tell Caroline and Stefan to get down here for an- emergancy meeting, -RIGHT THIS MINUTE?!-" I explained to him surprisingly fast. Tyler looked at me for a moment trying to process what I just told him. His eyes soon grew enlarged. "What?!" He asked me in shock. I rolled my eyes slightly.

I've never realized how useless some people really are.

"TYLER. THE PHONE!" I stressed for him. He soon pulled out his phone and dialed Caroline's number. But before he could finish dialing her, we both spotted Mrs. Lockwood coming our way.

This was just great! Just what I needed! More interferences ...

"Tyler!" She called out. "Mom?" Tyler replied. "What is the meaning of this?! Katherine are you really pregnant?" She asked me. I looked at her for a moment. The words couldn't come out, so I nodded instead. She sighed slightly, then looked at Tyler in shock and started to scowl him. "How could you have been so foolish to get a girl pregnant?! You're in high school, Tyler you're not ready to have kids yet! What were you thinking?!" She bursted out to him. Tyler looked at her in shock and confusion. I swallowed deeply.

I guess, news does spread like wildfire in this town after all.

"What are you talking about?!" He asked in a mixture of confusion. Carol scoffed and rolled her eyes slightly at Tyler. "We'll discuss this later. With your father." With that, she turned her heels and walked off. "What the hell was that about?!" Tyler eventually exclaimed after a good 30 seconds. "Did you not hear a word I just said earlier? I'm pregnant. Stefan's the father, but I told everyone it was you by mistake. It just came out like second nature or something..." I started out.

"But why ME?! Why not Matt, or Klaus, or Damon!" He pointed out. I rolled my eyes slightly at his logic. "A: Damon and I broke up before I got pregnant. B: Those rumors about Klaus and I earlier, were not true; I barely know the guy! And C: Matt, really? Be more REALISTIC here!" I told him my reasoning.

Tyler sighed slightly and soon went back to his previous mission. 'Warning the others of the emergency meeting'.

(Spoiler: A/N: They were both not aware of Hayley eavesdropping on their conversation.)

1 hour later...

"YOU WHAT?!"

Everyone in the room asked me. I sighed slightly. An hour ago, after they all arrived to the Lockwood mansion, I took them to a different room where the adults wouldn't find us and told them my situation.

"Yeah." I told them. "I can't believe this." Caroline muttered. "I'm NOT really the father, right?" Tyler asked making sure. "Yes, Stefan is." I explained to him. "Then why did you lie? I thought we both agreed to be honest with our parents in this situation?!" Stefan wondered. He seemed stressed today. "I know. I know. I just panicked! Okay?! I promise I'll tell them soon. Its just...are you sure, I mean once I tell them who it REALLY is there won't be no turning back." I told him. "Yes, I'm sure. I want you to tell your parents the truth. In fact, I'll come with you if you want." He told me.

"No, no, no. That won't be necessary." I told him, trying to change his mind. Apparently that wouldn't work. "No, I want your parents to know I'm really committed into this. The best way to do it is to be a man about it." Stefan stated. I sighed, knowing there was no way talking him out of it. "Alright fine. We'll tell them. Together." I agreed with him.

"I can't believe this! Katherine's really pregnant?!" Tyler asked in pure shock.

Caroline, Stefan, and I all shook our heads at Tyler's lack of understanding. "I'll explain it to you nice and slowly later, okay?" Caroline told him, in a way like she'd tell a 3-year-old who doesn't understand proper English.

After a while, Stefan and I soon sucked it up and told my parents the REAL truth.

After many death threats from my Dad to Stefan, if he didn't support the baby and didn't threat us both right, we all made an agreement, knowing that Stefan was always the 'responsible' one in the Salvatore family and would live up to it. Jeremy was actually relieved that it wasn't a Lockwood, who knocked me up, but was still ready to throw a punch at Stefan, if he ever had any 'second thoughts' in the future. Elena was shocked. She was literally quiet through the whole thing. Eventually, she got up and left. God knows where!?

In the end, we all came to terms and an understanding. We even made up our own...what it seemed like at the moment...a... a 'truce'.

Hours later, the Boarding house..

Elena

Well my plan backfired.

I got Damon easily, but Stefan might be harder, considering he got my prune of a sister pregnant.

Why he slept with her in the first place is BEYOND me?!

"Hey, Lena!" I heard a sexy voice behind me. I sucked in a deep breath and turned to face him. "Hello, Tall, Dark and Handsome!" I told him in a seductive yet innocent voice. His face turned a bit dark and he sighed. "Don't call me that." He muttered. I looked at him confused. "Damon, what's wrong?" I asked him trying to be concerned. "My 'saint' of a little brother knocked up your sister, Katherine. In case you didn't notice." He told me. I nodded slightly. "Yeah, but seriously...what's wrong?" I wondered. "Kat use to call me that while we were dating." He muttered to himself.

"I can't believe my brother knocked up MY GIRL!" I looked at him slightly in shock.

He did NOT just say that.

"YOUR GIRL?! So what am I then?" I wondered steamed. "I...uh...I ah...?!" Damon stumbled. "Save it! I know you're still in love with her, but why did you even break up with her if you don't love me?" I asked him. "Look...I love you Elena really I do, but Katherine and I go WAY back! We have history together. We've been together for like 2 years pretty much. Love like that takes a while to fade away." He told me. I soon scoffed.

"Love? LOVE? Ha! Don't make me laugh! You were never in love with Katherine! You only stayed with her so one day you could sleep with her. That didn't work out with her, but it did with me. You were practically using her for your own selfish reasons! And you have the nerve to call it LOVE?!" I said in spite. "Elena..." He started out. "I'm sorry, Damon but no. Turns out...you lose BOTH of the Gilbert twins, and you better get over it!" I told him, before walking off from his bedroom.

I don't get it! I just don't get it! It's like EVERYONE is in love with Miss Katherine freaking Gilbert! We look EXACTLY the same, yet NOBODY gives a damn about me! I'm the favorite in the household, I'm the teacher's pet, I'm everybody's favorite little 'Golden Angel, who could do NO wrong!' Katherine was the exact OPPOSITE! Yet EVERYBODY seemed to fall for her! Well NOT this time. My plan will work eventually. There's NO WAY Stefan will be able to forget about me and what we had.

Not after what I'll do.

Stefan

"Thanks for taking me home." She told me as I walked her to her doorstep.

I was taking Katherine home after a long day at the Lockwood house. So far the only people who knew about her pregnancy were, my parents, her parents, Jeremy, Elena, Damon, Caroline, Lexi, Tyler, the Lockwood's, and of course the two of us.

"No problem." I told her. "Look...I just wanted to say thank you for being by my side when it was getting rough and complicated for me." She told me. "Yeah, I know and it's okay...it's the least I could do for you." I told her. "Yeah...and...I'm not really good at this but...I'm sorry." She told me. "What are you talking about?" I asked her in confusion. "I'm sorry for being such a bitch to you during freshman year. You didn't deserve that. I guess I was jealous or something. You were smart, responsible, caring, kind, honest and well...you were able to be yourself around people more than anyone. Plus you could speak your mind. I always had trouble doing it and when you were doing it, I just started treating you like crap for some reason. I'm sorry for it and I know you probably won't forgive me for it, but I needed to say that. And you needed to actually hear it for a change. And I really mean it, Stefan." She clarified.

I was stunned. And speechless. I didn't know what to say or think at this moment.

This same woman who made my freshman, sophomore and junior year a living hell, was actually APOLOGIZING to ME!?

I looked at her for a moment, not knowing what to say. I didn't want to be rude or anything, but I was really speechless in this situation.

"Goodnight, Katherine." I told her quickly, before turning around to leave the porch. It was at this point when I got confused.

Who really was Katherine Gilbert? And did I see her as the same bitch from the beginning of high school, or as a totally different person? A person who actually...cared, was kind...felt remorse and was not the same person you met years ago? I wasn't sure who I saw her as, but at the moment, I knew for a fact that, even though it wasn't born yet...,

The baby was already changing Katherine.

(The whole baby drama is making Katherine mature a bit. And it's not even here yet! XD! Also what is Elena going to do? What's her plan? How is Hayley going to fit in this story? What will she do if Katherine and Stefan ever find out they might actually...LOVE each other?! We can only wait to see... Sorry if the chapter's a bit short :/...)
