Chapter 1: Pilot
Dear Dairy,
Today is the first day back at school after a long summer. This summer has been the summer of dreams! Despite my parents dying, Stefan and the girls have really taken my mind off it!Hopefully, this year things take a turn for the best. Now, as a new school year starts, me and my friends are making an oath. No boys will get in the middle of our friendship. I gotta head out, but i'll write later!
Love, Elena.
After that I put my diary on my desk and headed downstairs. I look around but can't find jeremy anywhere.
"Jeremy! There's school today!" I shout. No reply. Jeremy has been questionably distant lately. I cant blame him, the death of our parents hit really hard last year. But I know that out parents would want us to live out best life, so that's exactly what I'm going to do. I hear a slight ding in my right pocket and pull my phone out, all to a smile plastered on my face when I see who's texted me.
Stefan: Can't wait to see you 3
I smile and text him back.
Elena: Save me a seat in history ;)
I smirk and put my phone back in my right pocket. I sigh as I know caroline and bonnie are coming to pick me up but Jeremy hasn't been woken up.
"JEREMY GILBERT!" I shouted so loud that I even think the neighbors could hear that.
"Whatttt?" I hear a slight groan as I see jeremy walking down from the stairs. I roll my eyes and throw him his backpack. He shrugs and walks over to the counter.
"Jer, are you sure your gonna be okay? I'm worried about you." I say with full compassion. Jeremy looks at me and nods.
"Elena, i'll be fine. I'll see you at school, okay?"
I nod and grab my bags, heading for the door. When I open the door, I see a black car pull up by my driveway. The window rolls down as caroline peaks her head through the window.
"Get in!" She shouts. I smile and walk towards the car. Bonnie auto opens the car and I hop in, closing the door after me. Bonnie starts to drive. All I can think about is school. Thoughts are tracing my mind. What if this isn't a good year? What if things don't work out with me and Stefan? What if I can't be the fun elena gilbert i've always been? What if i'll never be the same?
"ELENA!" I snap my head up to see caroline screaming my name.
"W-what?" I slightly mutter. I've been doing this a lot lately. The whole being 'lost in thought kinda thing'. It's been driving bonnie and caroline crazy.
"I was calling your name for 2 minutes, and no reply! Is everything okay?" Caroline says as a smile reaches my face. I nod assuring her everything is fine as she looks back forward. The truth is i'm not okay, because ever since my parents died, I have to admit, I've haven't felt alive ever since. All I want is that feeling back, i've missed it so much.
As we approach school bonnie parks the car and we all get out. I have to admit I have missed this place just a little. I just can't shake that feeling, the feeling of what if things never go back to the way they were? What if they just, can't? I sigh knowing this isn't good for me, I know I have to stop overthinking this.
"Well come on, Girls! Let's go in!" Caroline squeaks. How can she be so exited? Me and Bonnie look at each other and laugh as caroline pounces to the school door. Being at school does feel strange every since, the accident. My eyes scan the halls for Stefan but he's no where to be found. As me and the girls walk down the halls, I suddenly feel a hard chest stop right in front of me. I back up to see who it is and groan.
"Damon" I murmur. Classic Damon Salvatore, bumping into the girls in the hall. He claims is always an 'accident' or he's 'clumsy'.
"Hello to you too, little Gilbert." He says in a smirking manner. All I wanted to do was wipe that little smirk off of his face by slapping his 'perfect little face' so it won't be so prefect anymore. "Aren't you gonna say hello back Gilbert?" I groan.
"Hello, Damon." As I say that a smirk crosses his face. Caroline gives Damon a glare and stands next to me, Bonnie following. "Go away Damon, last thing we need is your repulsive charm" Caroline blurts out. Caroline doesn't exactly have the best past with Damon. Let's just say she fell for the tricks and games he does to every girl. I've always told her not to take it personal, but she refuses to listen.
"I just wanted to know if you knew where Stefan was, simple." He says it almost with a sarcastic tone in his voice, I cant depict it. "Well, I was just looking for him actually" I say back. Damon raises his eyebrows and smirks again. Faint voices of girls staring at him are depicted in the background. Every time he does this weird eye thing, all the girls go crazy, even Caroline. Damon grasps his leather jacket and sighs.
"Well, if you see him, tell him i'm looking for him, and that there's practice today, okay?" I nod repulsively as he slides around like the classic jock he is, and walks away. All the girls are practically drooling over him. Cant they see it? He's Damon Salvatore. Not capable of loving anyone but himself. He's never changed and certainly won't. Caroline groans.
"Sometimes I really wish I could kill him" she says. Bonnie smirks and turns to Caroline. "There's a thought" Bonnie says, agreeing with Caroline. We all share a tiny laugh as the bell goes off. I have history, same with Bonnie and Caroline. So does Stefan.. and Damon. We all walk into the history class to see Mr. Saltzman, the new teacher, by his desk. I take a seat right in the first row next to Caroline. Damon and Stefan both enter the room, as it looks like Damon has been yelling at Stefan.
"Everybody sit down" Mr. Saltzman says. Damon and Stefan take a seat as Stefan glances over to me. I lean over by his ear and whisper, "What'd he do this time?" Stefan smirks "Just football stuff"
I simply smile.
Me and Stefan have been dating for 2 years. If you were to tell me in 7th grade I would be dating a Salvatore, I wouldn't believe you. At least it isn't Damon. The Salvatores have this badass reputation, but Stefan, doesn't. Yeah, he's hot and can be a badass, but isn't a dick. He actually cares about a girls feelings.
Stefan has always been good to me.
He always has been, and always will be.
I just hope this year I can be the same to him.
After a bruiting day of school, i walk out of my final class of the day to see Klaus and Stefan by my locker.
"Ah, Damon! We were just looking for ya mate." Klaus says, emphasizing his British accent. I send a repulsive smile his way. "Here I am" the lack of emphasis that comes out of my mouth is almost amusing. I look at Stefan who seems to be in his own little world.
"Yo, Stef?" I say has Stefan almost flinches. Me and Klaus let out a tiny laugh when Stefan groans. "Who's ready for some practice today?" I say with a crimson smile. Klaus smirks and Stefan groans.
"Why are you in such a prissy mood?" Stefan turns to me and shrugs, "Me and Elena were going to-"
"Elena, Elena, Elena" I cut him off. "Always about Elena. Was that why you were in such a bad mood when I told you about practice today?" Stefan stays silent as me and Klaus laugh. I pat Stefan on the back and he gasps a little. Picking on baby bro is always the best.
"Don't stress" I reassure him. "Practice won't cut into Elena time stef" Stefan rolls his eyes as the words roll of my tounge.
2 Hours later
Practice was normal.
As always, the girls on the cheerleading team were sending me kisses and flirty gestures. I'm used to it by now. Klaus and I persuaded Stefan to bring Elena and her friends to the back to school party. As a senior, I'm top dog at this party.
I open the door to my apartment and immediately jump on the couch.
"How's it going with Uncle Zach?" Klaus blurts out. I smirk and chuckle at the same time while glancing over to him.
"Good, as long as I do his bidding, Giuseppe and him decided to pay for this place, and the work isn't even that hard" Klaus smirks as the words come off my mouth. Klaus walks over to the fridge and grabs a beer.
"Sure, go right ahead" I say while smirking. Klaus shrugs and sits over at the counter. "So, what girl you gonna pick up at the party tonight?" Klaus says it with certainty.
"Maybe Vicki, although i've already been with her, she's not that good." Klaus chuckles and takes a sip of his bear. I sigh and sink into the couch.
"You good mate?" Klaus says as I groan. "Yeah, i'm just paranoid with Stefan, hasn't he seemed off?" Klaus shrugs.
"He has a girlfriend, he's tied down." Klaus takes another sip at his beer. I point towards the fridge and he nods and tosses me a beer. All of the sudden an idea pops up in my head and I shoot my head up at Klaus.
"What if we could change that?" Klaus looks at me half confused as a smirk surfaces my face. "What do you mean?"
"Well, break him and Elena up, and then no more tied down Stefan" Klaus let's a cynical laugh leave his lips. I raise my eyebrows in confusion.
"Dude, nothing is gonna break them, Stefan is like the best boyfriend. He's never cheated, or done anything unfaithful." I shrug at Klaus' remark.
"Just an idea" I mutter.
Stefan is the good brother. Everyone in the family looks up to him, that's how it's always been. He may be the younger brother, but he's looked at as more responsible then me, and more respectful then me. Giuseppe has always favored him, but i don't mind it. Personally, I don't mind being the badass brother, if that's want you want to call it.
But it's starting to bug me, he's tied down to one girl.
Elena Gilbert.
Ever since he started dating her, he hasn't been who he used to be, who he should be. All he cares about is making her happy, and it's getting annoying.
The worst part of it is no matter what lies I make up, it will never be strong enough, because Stefan is the perfect boyfriend.
I just wish there was a way to change that.
"Yo, Damon?" I snap out of my thoughts and look Klaus' way.
"Yeah?" I say with absolutely no emotion.
"You good? You seem kind've out of it?" I shrug at Klaus' remark and get off the couch.
"Let's get ready for this party" I mummer.
Klaus and me share a smirk.
Apart of me really doesn't want to go to this party.
However, there's no way Caroline is gonna stand by and watch me not go. I hear a buzz in my pocket and pull out my phone to see a text from Stefan.
Be at yours in 5.
I smile and reply with a simple answer.
Okay, see u soon :)
No response.
Me and Stefan haven't been as close as we were before my parents died, automatically there's a separation but we never have time for each other anymore. I love him, but it just seems like it's never the right time for us.
Maybe tonight can change that though.
Before I know it i'm walking out the door and into Stefans car. He shares a quick smile with me and I return the same.
"Hey" he says, faintly but enough for me to hear him.
"Hi" I say back. I know I have to say something because I don't want this awkward thing to keep up between us.
"Listen Stefan I-"
Before I could even finish my sentence, he smashes his lips onto mine, I feel his arms wrap around my waste as I deepen the kiss. Me and Stefan haven't kissed like this in a while, it's actually kinda weird if i'm being honest. Before we go any further, I pull away.
"We should probably get going to the party" I say as Stefan shows a slight smile.
"Yeah, we probably should" he adds. I smile and grab the back of his head before smashing my lips on his one last time. When I pull away, I hear a slight laugh as Stefan stars to drive.
For some reason, I didn't feel much when he kissed me, let alone when I kissed him.. why though? Why can't I feel anything? All these thoughts are swirling in my head and before I realize it were at the party.
This is gonna be a long night.
Me and Klaus walk into the party, as all the girls immediately give us their stares and full attention. It's kinda fun seeing how these girls will do anything for us just so we can spit on them.
"Aight, who's first?" Klaus says almost cynical. I chuckle and look around the room, scanning for just the right person to smash. This house is huge, so no one will notice if I sneak a girl upstairs.
"I might go for the red head over there, haven't seen her face at school" I say in a confused manor.
"Maybe she isn't?" Klaus says as I look his way, "There are a lot of people who show up to school parties who actually aren't from the school, you know" Klaus does have a point. I shrug and then make my way through the crowd, more people coming in each moment.
I tap on the red head girls back, and when she turns around I smirk at her, I practically invented this smirk. She sends me back a simple smile.
"Hello, there" is all she offers to say.
"Hey hot stuff" I say, as she starts to blush. I wrap my arm around her waste and I immediately feel her body shiver.
"You know, if your trying to make a move, at least buy me a drink first" She blurts out and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Sure, why not? Maybe it will get you drunk enough to confess a dirty little secret of yours" She smiles and I offer out my hand, but as she takes it I can't help but look towards the entrance all to see Stefan.
And Elena.
Oh God, those two are about as annoying as two 7th graders crushing on each other. More reason Stefan needs to dump her ass. I turn to the girl and send a slight smile.
"Do you mind holding off on that drink?" She doesn't seem to mind it as she smiles back.
"Sure, I'll see you around, mystery man" and with that, she walks away.
She was hot.
I didn't even get her name.
However, all my focus was on Stefan, and how Elena Gilbert is really starting to piss me off. She could be dead and still would be manipulating Stefans every move!
I immediately walk over to Stefan and he glances over at me, I can see Elena roll her eyes at me, but right now I really don't care.
"Hey little bro, surprised you actually showed up" he looks at me as if i'm crazy.
"I would never miss the back to school party" He says almost with shock in his voice.
"Good, now come on, we're going to play a little game, and make sure to bring your little friends, Elena" I look at Elena and smirk, all she does is groan.
I walk away and immediately start looking for Klaus.
This is gonna be a fun one.
Damon is so infuriating.
Who does he even think he is?
He treats Stefan like shit and Stefan doesn't even do a thing about it! It really pisses me off.
He pisses me off. Damon.
I'm off looking for Caroline and Bonnie, and I told Stefan I would meet him and the guys by the couch with the girls. However, I cant seem to find the girls.
I then text a message in our group chat.
Hey, where are you guys? Meet at the couch by the bar.
I shut my phone off as I turn around and gasp when I see Stefan.
"Jeez, you scared me!" I practically yell at him, probably because I can barely hear him over the music.
"Sorry, just wanted to make sure you were okay" He says it with a smile on his face and I can't help but smile back. He then puts his hand around my thigh and I tense up.
Maybe this is what I need, what we need, for our relationship to be what it was. I look up at him as he places his hand on my chin. And with that I lock my lips with his. I wrap my arms around his and start to kiss his neck. He grabs my thighs and places me in the counter where the countless bottles of drinks are.
Light moans slip out of my mouth as I pull Stefan closer to men he connects are lips back together and as my arms roam his body, it hits me.
I still don't feel anything.
That was it.
I immediately pulled away after that because I couldn't bear it anymore. I'm trying so hard but nothing is working. Literally nothing.
"Elena? Whats wro-"
"I'm sorry Stefan, I-I just need some air" and before he could even protest, let alone say anything. I'm out the door. As the humidity of the August air hits me, I've finally come to one realization.
This is gonna be one hell of a year.
I think i'm about to throw up.
Stefan and Elena making out is probably the grossest thing i've seen all day. And thanks to him, Elena's out the door and my little game is ruined.
God, why does Stefan have to be Stefan!
"It's fine, Damon, they wouldn't have been fun to mess with anyways" Klaus says sounding desperate. Honestly, i'm too busy to listen to Klaus when all I can think about is how disguising Stefan and Elena are together.
Stop it Damon. Stop thinking about them.
I can't.
"Klaus, how is it not driving you crazy what's going on!" Klaus looks at me confused. I groan.
"Stefan is a completely different person! I mean, over the summer he was good but now, he doesn't even talk to us, he's not even cool and I can't have that status on the football team or near ME." as I finish my long and surprisingly not scripted paragraph, Klaus just stares at me.
"Well? Are you gonna say anything?" I practically hiss at him.
He has a smirk on his face and finally, starts looking like the Klaus I know again.
"What if.." he starts, "what if there was a way to get Stefan and Elena separated?"
I simply laugh.
"Klaus, there's like no way on the universe" I mutter.
"Actually, there is.." I tilt my head as the words spit out of his mouth.
"Think about it, Elena loves the Salvatore charm, and there's one person who is the best at attracting girls with his charm"
Oh God.
I think I know where he's going with this.
So help me if Klaus says what I think he's about to say-
"You"
OH MY GOSH.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" I outburst. "You want me to hit on Elena fucking Gilbert!"
Don't get me wrong, Elena is hot.
But her personality, is the opposite.
Ice cold.
Especially since her parents died.
"Think about it man! You spread rumors about a lot of people, if you manage to spread some about them, while hitting on Elena, they'll break up! Once they do and Stefans over her, dump her."
It's harsh, but i've done it before. What's the difference with Elena Gilbert?
It actually might be fun to roughen up her feathers, see what she has to offer.
Not like I actually would consider getting with her.
Now the fun begins ;)
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! Like I said, sorry for the lack of DE scenes this chapter, but it was the first one so I wanted to show you how Stefan and Elenas relationship is rocky and how Damon can get between them!
What if Damon starts to feel something for Elena?
