Author's Note: OMG! Spring Break's coming soon! Then I can write whenever I want to! Yay!
And Thank you all so much for the review! Some of you were really happy I went for the guy I like. Turns out, though, that he's completely obsessed with me it's sorta starting to creep me out.
Well...moving on. Enjoy!
(apologize in advance for spelling and grammar errors. I was rushing on this)
Elena POV
Something told me that Damon was probably going to end up following me.
Oh well, I thought, I'll deal with him later.
Before I knew it, my car was parked in the area of the Mystic Falls town square. I was debating with myself whether I should stay in the car and wait for Jake, or get out of the car and search for him.
I didn't really think that it mattered. Neither choice made no difference to my safety.
If a vampire was after me, being inside a car wouldn't be such an obstacle for him.
But I was too wary to leave the sanctum of my vehicle, so I ended up deciding to wait for Jake instead.
After a few minutes, my phone buzzed.
I'm here, Jake's text message said, where are you?
I responded. My car.
J: Change of plans. Meet me at your house?
I was immediately suspicious.
E: Why the sudden change of plans?
J: a) it's not safe to meet out in public b) your house is a lot warmer than talking outside c) some of my…vampire-hunting friends have joined me. The more the merrier huh?
I sighed.
E: But why my house? Damon isn't going to be happy that I brought a bunch of dudes home with me for 'discussion.'
J: I didn't mean the boarding house, I meant…you know…your Uncle's house. Alaric's.
I huffed a defeat.
E: Meet you there in a few.
I still didn't understand why Jake had us meet at Alaric and Jenna's house. We could've easily done it here.
But fears and worries and doubts were going through my mind. What if this was an ambush? What if Jake was compelled by Klaus to have me walk right into his trp?
But when I parked in front of the house, left the car and opened the door, I heard golly laughter and drinks clinking together from the living room.
Convenient time to have a party, Jake.
I walked in to see Jake and three of his friends; one I've met and the other two I'd never seen in my life.
Jake stood up quickly when he saw me, ashamed with being carefree at a time like this. He quickly ordered his friends to drop their beers.
He looked sheepish. "Um," he started awkwardly, "Elena—"
I stopped him from further embarrassment. "Whatever," I replied quickly, "so, these are your vampire hunter partners?"
The one guy I knew, Mike, had red-orange hair that was spiked and gelled up. He was tall and lean. His eyes were a dark blue with gold flecks around them. His big rounded glasses sat comfortably on his nose. Mike looked like one of those geeky-but-groovy kinds of guys. I had met him once when Jake and I toured his college. Mike was Jake's former college roommate. I knew him as quiet and conservative.
The girl next to him was nearly as tall as Mike. She had frizzed golden blond hair that fell all the way down to her waist. Her eyes were a flaming gold color. I could feel her arrogant and haughty attitude from where I was standing. She almost looked like she was trying to burn a hole through me with her eyes.
The boy next to Jake had dark, shaggy brown hair. He was shorter than any of them, and just slightly shorter than me. His eyes were as green as Jake's. They seemed soft and concerning, even though he seemed like a bulky kind of guy.
"Elena, as you remember, this is Mike, my roommate/friend/homework machine in college," Jake introduced.
The corner of Mike's lips quirked to represent a smile.
"…Beth…Mike's twin sister and, uh…" he continued.
"I'm his ex," Beth finished for him, glaring at me even harder.
Jake coughed uncomfortable.
Wow, no wonder she hates me.
"…and Cory."
Cory gave a grin. "Sup."
"Hello," I welcomed to all three of them. I turned back to Jake. "So, is this your team that's helping us?"
"Don't forget me," a voice from upstairs announced.
Alaric came into view with a sleeping Lisa in his arms.
"Alaric, you're in this too—" I started.
"Sh," he motioned to his sleeping daughter that he was carrying. "Well, you're my family now too. I have to protect you."
We all froze when we heard the front door open and slam shut. Could it be…Klaus…?
Instead, Damon strolled in, with an I-caught-you expression on his face. He glared at everyone angrily. "Care to explain, Elena?" he confronted, his arms folded tightly in front of him.
"Damon, these are Jake's friends. They're gonna help us."
He gave a lame attempt of a smile at them. Damon grabbed my elbow. "Will you guys excuse us for a moment…"
Without listening to my objections, he dragged me to my room to talk to me alone. Locking the door, he turned to face me grimly.
"Damon," I tried to reason with him, "we need all the help we can get. That's why I turned to Jake—"
"I'm not mad about that," he cut in, "I'm mad because you lied to me."
My jaw dropped. He was pissed cuz I said one small fib?
But he seemed really upset about it. "I trusted you, and you used my trust against me."
"Damon," I protested, "you aren't being reasonable here."
"You lied," he kept accusing.
There was a chuckle behind us.
Both Damon and I spun around to find an amused Stefan and a team of vicious-looking vampires behind him.
Duh DUH DUH!
