AN: Okay, so it's been what? Two weeks? God, I'm a horrible person. I'm soooooo sorry. I've been caught up in finals, and now I'm going home for Christmas! (Okay, so I'm way too excited about that) I promise another chapter before the 23rd, scouts honor. I'm such a bad person! I have the next chapter planed out in my head so all I have to do is write it out.
The Lockwood Manor, Mystic Falls, 2060
Sabrina's leg wouldn't stop shaking. She was stressed since Tyler had revealed that everyone was coming to get her. Caroline, Elena, Bonnie, Damon, even Stefan and Klaus were headed over, not to mention Rebekah and Matt. Thank you ever so much, Tyler Lockwood. She thought bitterly, her eyes never leaving the front door. Her teeth clenched as she heard someone coming down the stairs, and made a vow if it was Tyler to stab him. Thankfully, it was only Victoria. The girl had been hiding up in her room since Sabrina came over, she was obviously still angry about what happened at the Gilbert house. Sabrina didn't blame her, Victoria didn't know anything but she was a curious person, and she hated secrets. "You're freaking out my family. My Aunt's worried you'll explode and Tyler thinks you're going to drive yourself into insanity."
"That's the only reason you came down, isn't it? You needed to make sure I'm not back into that Sabrina, right, Victoria? Well don't worry your pretty little flat-ironed hair off. I'm not, I'm just in a horrible mood and I'm kind of freaking out. Leave me alone, you're still mad and you aren't helpful when you're ticked off. Really, I just want to get back home, but I can't risk buying a plane ticket. Rather not get her to come back home early because of my behavior again." Sabrina noticed Victoria's slightly confused expression and explained, "Mother's in Australia, something about a hugely important business meeting that could make her company thousands. Tori, I can't make her nervous that Alyssa and I've run away. You know how well it worked out last time we tried that. Seriously, how many minutes did it take for Scarlet to call everyone and spill the news? Five, two minutes?" The brunette smiled fondly at the memory of them when they were little kids, barely eight.
Victoria's eyes shined as she saw her friend, and the youngest Lockwood surge of laughter, "I remember that! You were like eight and somehow got all the way to Chicago. How did you even get that far without someone noticing you didn't have a parent there? You were only gone for like a week or two. Scar was trying to document your little adventure and I swear your mother was going to kill you!" She continued with an afterthought, "Which is technically not a good thing but for some reason we thought it was... Then again we were only eight and didn't know a thing about your mother's issues. We just thought she was a really mean person."
Sabrina nodded rapidly as she grinned at her best friend, "Alyssa wouldn't stop demanding I told her about the hobos I met along the way, but I didn't meet a lot and she could tell that I was lying. She could seriously just tell and she demanded more and more stories every single night that past when I got home! I couldn't keep up with her. You and Scarlet wouldn't stop asking me about Chicago... Plus, I remember quiet vividly that you slapped me across the face and then couldn't stop laughing!"
"You have to admit, it was hilarious. My hand print wasn't gone for like half a hour or something and you thought it'd be there forever. I swear you didn't stop crying for days since you thought I was pissed off at you, even though I laughed my ass off every time I saw you." Victoria smiled at Sabrina, glad they weren't fighting any longer. That's when the door burst open, both Caroline and Damon walked in the house while the Originals, Matt, Elena and Stefan were stuck outside with Bonnie trying to get through Stefan and Elena. The two had gotten past the Originals and Matt and were now trying to fight past the barricade. "What the hell do you think you're doing?! Get out of my house! She doesn't want to see you!" Victoria yelled, not being able to be the least bit civil to them. Sabrina looked away from the group, slightly worried about what the group of vampires might do. She didn't even know why they had all come to get her. She understood Stefan and Bonnie, maybe Damon but, Elena, Klaus and Caroline shocked her a bit. She was also a bit scared, but not a lot. They wouldn't hurt her, except Klaus. Klaus would always want to hurt her, to take her blood.
"They're my friends, Victoria. Let them in." Tyler growled as he walked down the stairs. Sabrina heard a scoff and had to look up to see who it was, and she looked up at Damon, once she saw the smirk on his face, it made her less nervous. That was, until she saw Caroline's obvious fury. Thankfully, the emotion wasn't directed at her, but instead the anger was for Tyler, who was now trying to run backwards up the stairs to escape from her rage. "Care, I meant to call you last weak, I really did. I just got all distracted with protecting the werewolves from Klaus and stuff." He told her, holding out his hands in case she decided to attack him. She never really got control over her anger, even after almost a century of being alive. Caroline was always really bitchy when she was angry. 'Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn' and all that.
"Caroline, you can deal with your relationship drama with your moronic boyfriend later, love. Right now we need to get Sabrina away from the family with a past of killing and lots of rage issues. No offense, mate." Klaus said, looking at Tyler who was just glaring at the first Hybrid. Klaus smiled politely, but inside wanted to snap the rude young man's neck or rip his heart out, yet that was because he was sure that Tyler was cheating on Caroline with Haley. Caroline looked back at Klaus, staring slightly. She was surprised that he was actually being civil, to Tyler of all people. The blonde vampire nodded, a bit numbly, then walked over to her best friend's girlfriend slowly.
Victoria stepped in front of her best friend, wanting to protect her from the insane people. Sabrina sighed, knowing that is was inevitable. She put her hand of Victoria's shoulder and hesitantly walked outside. She went directly over to Stefan and grabbed his hand, avoiding even looking at Klaus, who she wanted to burn or rip his head off or stake about two hundred times. Really, anyone would want to if they had gone though what she had. He wanted to use her as a blood bag for his little hybrid family. She could want the murderous hybrid dead. It was only natural, at least, as natural as it could be when surrounded by vampires. Stefan let her lead him into the driveway, but he made sure to lead her away from the car with Matt and Rebekah in it. They were nearing the main road when she finally answered his questioning gaze, "Stefan... I know everything... From the supernatural things about vampires and werewolves to your little-huge dismembering problem. Damon, Tyler, Caroline, Elena, Bonnie and Klaus told me everything that you didn't. I have faith that you were going to tell me, but, I don't know how to handle this. I don't ask for a lot, but I do ask that you trust me and that you are always honest with me. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. I just want that no matter what, you're trustworthy and honest," Sabrina told him, looking like she was about to cry her eyes out. "Really, Stefan. I am falling in love with you, I was waiting for you to show that you were too, but lying to me about your whole self? You've gone through so much, and everything is complicated. I'm scared to go into this, because I need to protect my sister. I'm not going to let what happened to Jeremy happen to her. I want you to tell me that I'll be okay, but even more than that, I need you to tell me the truth, even if it's really bad, Stefan."
Stefan nodded, and caressed her cheek as he stared sadly into her eyes. "I know, and I'm sorry, Sabrina... But Bonnie needed me after Jeremy's death. We all knew it was coming, he was being driven insane by thoughts of killing vampires, especially after Matt became one for Rebekah." Now it was Sabrina's turn to give him a questioning gaze, "You said that they told you everything... Well, Matt was human once, he dated Elena and Caroline before moving to Rebekah. Anyways, I swear I was going to tell you, Sabrina. I was about to explain everything to you, then Jeremy died and Caroline ran in the house. My friends are important to me. My best friend was killed by my brother, the only person who I had for almost a century. Caroline, Jer, Matt, Bonnie. They're my friends. I protected Jer, but I also hurt him and used him. I did the same to Bonnie and Matt and even Caroline. He would've wanted me to come and help. Plus, I needed to make sure that Bonnie didn't drive herself insane."
Sabrina sighed, "I'm giving you one night to convince me that I'm wrong and that I should forgive you, give you a second chance. You have one night, starting now." Stefan grinned, holding out his arm for her. Sabrina took it and let Stefan drag her off to the town. The two disappeared from earshot a couple minutes later.
Back inside the Manor, Caroline nodded, "We can leave now. Damon, go annoy Klaus some more." She instructed, but Damon actually shook his head no, looking in between Klaus and Tyler. Tyler was glaring at Klaus, who was hadn't stopped smiling politely. Caroline needed to break this up, so she walked over to Klaus's side, and Damon did the same with Elena. They completely ignored Tyler's questioning looks. "Bonnie's going home in my car, so Elena and I need to come with you guys." Caroline told the boys and they nodded, heading outside. Tyler and Victoria were left behind, and a faith argument could be heard from Victoria about anger issues.
Elena raised an eyebrow as they neared the car, "Rebekah already found her seat." The boys laughed and nodded, seeing the youngest original sitting on Matt's lap. Elena and Caroline were the ones disgusted, but Klaus didn't seem to mind and Damon didn't really care: The dude was still high on the fact that he was with Elena.
"So, date night anyone?" Damon asked as he wrapped an arm around Elena's shoulder and got into the back of the car together. Caroline rolled her eyes as she forced herself in between Elena and Damon. She was still on team Stefan, and she kind of hated Sabrina. Klaus chuckled and got into the driver's seat.
"Yeah, now we can have fun. None of us have to worry about a doppelgänger with one of the Salvatore brothers around her." Klaus smirked, then got hit in the head by Caroline. "Love. You really shouldn't do that." He growled, rubbing his head. Elena's mouth was slightly open, shocked that Klaus hadn't broken her arm for that move.
Caroline sat back and got cozy, smirking to herself, "You just keep saying that and yet you haven't done anything to prove that I shouldn't." Rebekah groaned and pulled away from Matt's chest to glare at Caroline. Matt sighed and murmured things to calm Rebekah down a bit before she went off, which only made things worse, really.
"Would you shut up and just kiss him already? God, you and his flirting is worse than Damon and Elena's." The blonde girl snapped. Damon chuckled, where as Elena stared at her feet. "Nik, let's go eat dinner before it's ruined." Klaus nodded and drove off, pulling out of the Lockwood's driveway and heading back to his place.
How'd you like it? I promise, next chapter is complete and total fluff, if I can learn how to write sweet things. But I know how to do Klaroline!
So yay! Later loves ~ xoxo, Hybrid.
