It was a great day. The sun was shinning brightly in the sky, making his eyes even more hypnotizing. He just stared at her, green eyes filled with joy and love.
"Stefan!" Elena said "How did you get away? I thought Klaus had used compulsion on you...I thought you were gone forever..."
"Never! My love for you is much stronger than anything Nick could ever do..."
"I'm so happy! And...wait, did you just call him Nick?" she asked, suddenly suspicious
"Oops." she heard the too familiar angelic voice say from behind Stefan "Guess my ripper needs to be more careful with his choice of words" Klaus said, patting Stefan's back like they were old friends. Of course, they actually were.
"What's going on Stefan?"
The vampire just laughed and went for her jugular
"Elena! Elena! Ouch! What the hell Elena?" he said...but suddenly green eyes turned blue...
"Elena! Wake up for god's sake! That's enough." Damon said, shaking her gently
"I...what?" Elena asked, suddenly aware that she was on a bed...a familiar one "Damon, what am I doing in your room?"
"You're asking me? I was here, sleeping my beauty sleep, and the next thing I know you're here kicking me and screaming my brother's name. Really, what a great way to start the day, huh?" he said, a bitter look on his face
"Are you serious?"
"Well, yeah! You think my good looks are just good genetic? Well, sure they are! But I need my sleep in order to..."
"Shut up Damon! You know what I meant."
"Yeah...well, yes, about that too. You, my dear, has somnambulism." He said, poking her cheast
"I had some episodes...you know...after my parents...but it's been a while."
"Oh..." he didn't want her to get emotional right now. He couldn't deal with that and his brother sudden appearance. So he did what he was best: deflected
"So, you want some pancakes for breakfast? You've been way too skinny, hardly as curvy as I like you." he said, caressing her stomach
"Cut it out" she said, pushing him away "But pancakes sound good...it's just...hmm, do you think He is..."
"Stefan is out." he answered coldly "No need to worry, the good brother is here to protect you" he said, extending an arm for her to accompany him
"Well...I...ok. I'm fine, it's just...really, I wouldn't care if he was here." she lied, knowing Damon wouldn't buy it, which he didn't, but just decided to go with it
Everything was fine. More than that, super fine! She was young, beautiful, smart, had a lot of friends...Why should it matter that her first love no longer felt for her? That he in fact didn't feel for anyone these days... For months she had thought of his return; of his green eyes staring at her with joy and they would be happy again. She didn't think his return would turn out to be a complete nightmare.
She couldn't even look at him, with that creepy smile always on his face, like a Cheshire cat...waiting for his prey. It was a lot like Damon's, but it just didn't work for Stefan, it was just out of place. Not that it worked for Damon either...like, it wasn't like she found it sexy, or that it made her legs shake or anything like that. Of course not. She only saw him like...like a brother. A hot, smooth talking brother. Ok, so maybe it wasn't quite like a brother...
A/N: So, very short first chapter because I haven't written anything for a long time and need to see how you (reader) respond to it...am I too rusty? Or would you like me to keep going? Anyway, please hit that review button down there and let me know what you think :)
