Prompt- Guardians

The triplets, the most annoying, selfless, caring, stubborn bastards in the world. Elena and Jeremy had ended up into their care, the three of them had moved from England to Mystic falls just to look after them.

The two brothers and one sister had proceeded to crack down on a few things as well.

1) No boys allowed in the house

2) If school work and homework is not completed you are grounded

3) If we find you smoking you will end up eating them

4) drinking is not allowed

5) lie to us you will not like the results.

They seemed so strict and they had began to hate them, Elena didn't like the fact that Stefan was no longer allowed in the house, neither was Damon. Jeremy had been caught with a bottle of Vodka, he then been made to watch a video on liver failure and why drinking was bad.

Jeremy had been shaken for days, he had woken up screaming some nights, others he had woken up soaked in sweat.

What he didn't know was every time he woke up he found warms hands sweeping the wet hair from his face, a glass of water on the bedside table for the next time he woke up.

The triplets knew that they were been hard arses, they knew that. But they had been given so much freedom that they thought that they could do what they wanted when they wanted, they wanted to show them what it was like living with rules, and things were fine until the found Stefan climbing out the bedroom window.

New rules came in

1) No boys allowed in the house

2) If school work and homework is not completed you are grounded

3) If we find you smoking you will end up eating them

4) drinking is not allowed

5) lie to us you will not like the results.

6) Chores will be given to you, if you do not do them with the time you will be grounded

7) going behind our backs will not be tolerated

But while Elena was too busy breaking the rules?

Jeremy had cracked down, his grades had improved and slowly but surely he had gotten back his freedom. So when Stefan phone him one day he went to the boarding house to see what was up.

Jeremy walked in and looked around the room

"Whats up?"

Caroline, Bonnie, Stefan and Damon looked at him, he seemed happy?

Since when had that happened? The last time they had seen Jeremy he was getting stoned, and causing fights with Tyler Lockwood of all people. They watched as he flopped down on the couch and looked at them

"Well?"

They blinked since when the hell had this happened? Stefan looked at Jeremy and asked

"Where is Elena?"

Jeremy snorted

"Grounded."

That was new, Bonnie looked at Jeremy and asked

"Jenna grounded her?"

Jeremy broke out into laughter, and shook his head several times

"Jenna had a mental break down, and they didn't know how to get in contact with John. So they called the triplets you know Hadrian, Harry and Angela?"

Bonnie and Caroline blinked they had not seen them in years, no one had for them to come back?

The two shuddered, they were known for not taking shit of anyone. The last person that insulted John ended up with a baseball bat to the face, both his legs broken and his car blew up. They couldn't prove that it was the triplets but everyone in town knew that it was them.

Jeremy grinned at the look that the two were pulling, he felt the same way when he had heard who was going to be looking after him and Elena. But now he was happy that he had been given a chance, sure they were strict as hell, the rules were ridiculous and he hated them most of the time.

But now he could see that they had kept them busy, making sure that they didn't think about the night that their parents had died. Sure they knew it had happened, and Jeremy blamed Elena for it sometimes, but it didn't hurt anymore. Because he had been so bosy he hadn't wallowed away in grief and pain, he had kept his mind on other things.

But he knew that they had some skeletons in their closest, he knew he had seen the scars on Hadrian's back, and felt sick it looked like someone had tried to carve his back off.

Harry not much better, his chest and back were covered in scars. Jeremy had seen them one time, he wanted to ask about them but Elena had started with her drama. So he had left it, it wasn't until Angela had taken off her top to change her clothes that he had seen the word

'Whore'

Carved right into her back, and from where it was Jeremy knew she hadn't done it herself. He had tried to ask so many times but he didn't dare to, he had only just began to like them he didn't want to undo everything that he had done. After all why would the answer any questions that he had?

So he sat back and watched as Bonnie and Caroline began to panic, he wouldn't pass this up for anything in the world.

Elena was sulking, before they had came she had the life she wanted, a great boyfriend, two best friend and a town that thought she could do no wrong then all of a sudden they came back, she hated them. If she ever had to choose between her life and theirs?

It was simple she would choose her own.

After all they had ruined her life, she wasn't allowed to see Stefan because she had broken some rule which was stupid in her opinion if she was honest.

But did they really have to take away her laptop, her computer, her TV she wasn't allowed anything electronic at all and she hated it she wasn't even allowed out either.

So all she could do was either read, who even owns books these days?

Or sit on her bed staring at four walls.

One thing was for certain though Elena wanted them gone, if they were gone she could have her old life back and be popular again.
