Stefan found Elena alone sitting at a table in The Grill. Angrily he sat down with her.
"You alone in here? Where's Damon?"
"He'll be here soon. But your reunion with him can wait. What's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong…Really Elena? Like you don't know. Why didn't you tell me that she was marrying Klaus tomorrow?"
"I…I-I" Elena stuttered.
"Yes, you, you, you"
"I thought she would break off the engagement the minute she saw you," Elena said confused.
"Well, she didn't" Stefan breathed out the air, he didn't even know he held on to.
"Why?"
"Because she loves him, obviously."
Elena put a hand on his hand that rested on the table and said, "But she loves you more, I am certain of it"
"I don't know anymore," Stefan answered, shaking his head, defeated.
At that moment Damon rushed in and Stefan stood up, seeing his brother for the first time in years. They hugged, obviously very happy to see each other. It was very similar to the reunion they had years ago when Damon got out of the prison world and Stefan got his big brother back.
"Caroline?" Klaus called out when he got home, having a big bouquet of roses with him.
"Klaus!" Caroline answered, coming out of the dining room and when she saw the yellow roses in his hands, she was a little bit surprised. "What's with the roses?"
"I just wanted to get you something nice before I go to my bachelor's party and maybe then I won't anger you later when I get a little drunk" Klaus smiled sheepishly at her.
"Oh, that, I totally forgot about it. Anyway, thank you, they are very pretty and also my favorites"
"I know, but what's wrong? You don't seem like yourself?"
"Stefan is…back" Caroline said, warily.
"What do you mean Stefan is back?" Klaus asked with an unreadable face.
And then Caroline filled him in on everything that had happened, everything she knew that is.
"I see," Klaus said, going to pour himself a glass of whiskey.
"Look, it doesn't have to change anything with us, but I want to postpone the wedding a little bit."
"It doesn't change anything but you still want to postpone?" Klaus asked, anger evident in his voice.
"I don't know what else to do. I am so confused." Caroline pleaded with him.
"I have to get out of here!" Klaus simply stated and before Caroline could react, he was out the door.
Klaus went straight to the grill, wanting to get drunk, but when he got there he saw that Stefan was already there, chatting and laughing with Elena, Damon and Bonnie.
He wanted so bad to kick Stefan's teeth in but decided that It wasn't worth it and started to leave when it was Stefan's voice that stopped him cold.
"Klaus!?"
Klaus turned around and looked his nemesis in the eye.
"I heard you were back from hell or wherever you were for three years."
"It wasn't hell, it was…never mind it's not important. What's important is Caroline and what we are going to do about the whole situation."
"I have a suggestion. Leave, Stefan. Leave Mystic Falls and never come back" Klaus got in his face and Demon came quickly between them to protect his brother.
"You're the one who should leave, Klaus" Damon stated, "At least from here, right now"
Angry looks were exchanged between the three when finally Klaus was ready to leave. But not without getting his last words out.
"I'm not gonna give up, Stefan, I am gonna fight for her. Let the best man win" and then Klaus left the grill.
