I know it's been way too long but I started school again and finding the time wasn't easy..

I always wanted Sam to be what you expected least...

tell me if i did the trick...

POV Sam

Finding the school was easy when the entire town was filled with arrows about the school car wash. I arrive and some guys start whistling. Ow boy are they lucky Damon isn't here. Now where is my target?

Finding vampires gets easier over the years. You learn little twitches. Stefan just makes himself known really. He steps forward out of the group, staring at the car. I turn and stroke the hood.

Damon would kill me if I left one scratch on it. That would be the best thing to do, just to get his attention. Maybe later.. first that beautiful ring of mister bambi drinker.

I pull my hand out of my jeans pocket and speak to the first guy near me.

"Hey, I'm new here, could you tell me where the office is?"

It wasn't really about the question or a location. It was all about my ring. A lapis lazuli without spell. Straight in Stefan's point of view. That would get him talking. That's step one, how to get the ring, is still unclear.

Just when I want to turn if I got his attention a voice answers before the guy can.

"I'll show you. I'm finished anyway…"

I turn and look straight in Stefan's eyes. Went better than I thought it would.

We walk toward the school building after a short introduction. When we're far enough so people wouldn't hear us he turns.

"how did you get Damon's car?"

"Stole the keys, what's the deal? How do you know Damon anyway?"

Play innocent, one of the first lessons Damon thought me.

"Just from over the years. We're from the same town, it brought us together sometimes."

"More than you liked, telling by your face…"

He chuckles.

"That's Damon, I guess… Nice ring by the way."

He tries to get me to talking but I'm to far gone in my mind. How the hell am I going to get that ring off?

"Thanks, yours is better… 1860's something correctly?"

And don't start about the past down in the family story. Really it gets old after a while.

" Something like that and yours?"

No denying. He surprises me.

"bit younger. Helps me against that lovely weather outside…"

"I know what you're talking about…"

I want to continue the conversation but someone tries to call me. The screen tells me it's just the person I don't want to talk to. I'll call him again later.

"Hey, this may sound weird, but can I try yours on? The design is intriguing. Family crest?"

He starts talking about the design and the story while pulling the ring of his finger. If I could just keep him talking till we reach the open window at the end of the hall.

He stops walking. Just great. He's doubting my intentions. Maybe I can help the situation a little.

"You want to see my ring? I do know how it feels to be without your ring. The chill of something that might happen."

He nods and starts walking again. Almost there…

"Here you go."

We exchange the rings. Woow his is heavy.

"Mind if I check in the sun at that window? I'm always curious if the ring of someone else works on me too…"

He nods chuckling. I walk to the window and stand smiling in the sun.

"It works…"

He walks over to me. Now is the moment…

I jump through the window and stand in the direct sunlight.

"Just too bad mine won't do that too…"

Just as the words are said, he stands in the sun. the burning almost immediately begins.

"Should know better Stefan than crossing Damon…"

I run to the car. Making sure I'm always in the sun. I don't want to take any unnecessary risks. Once in the car, I take my cell out of my pocket and call back to my missed call.

Wonder what news he has…

"Elijah…"

*drama music*

who saw that one coming? I did... XD
