AN Sorry this took forever I got loads of school work. I'll try to update soon. Sorry this is a short chapter too. I promise next one will be longer. Thanks for the favorites and reviews :)

*Caroline's POV

They weren't back yet and I needed Stefan right now. I needed to tell him what Klaus wanted. I needed him to pull me into a hug and tell me he won't let anything happen to me just like he did when I first turned. I guess they must've gotten lost or something. I head out to go search for them leaving them a note on the outside of the door if they come back before I do.

I turn to walk down the stairs but I stop seeing Stefan and Katherine walking towards the bottom of the stairs. I could tell they were drunk and soaked but they're laughing and holding hands. Wait… HOLDING HANDS?! He stops her before they go up the stairs and pulls her by the waist into a long lustful kiss.

I rush inside, grabbing the note, and hop into bed and pretend to sleep. As they walk in giggling and shushing each other I replay the last couple days in my head trying to figure out when they had become so close. But I get lost in the smell of scotch and Stefan as he walks over to me and places a chaste kiss on my forehead.

"Sorry about dinner, Care. I know you'll probably kill me in the morning," he whispers and then he walks back over to the bed where he flops down next to Katherine.

"You know, even though I killed her and didn't like her at first, I freaking love Caroline," Katherine slurrs out, "She's way better than Lexi."

"First of all shh, she's sleeping," he says and I can imagine him placing his finger on her lips and maybe even giving her a quick kiss, "and second Lexi was the best."

"Maybe I'm just jealous you never got drunk with me and danced at Bon Jovi's concert," she retorts and I know she's pouting. She probably even has her arms crossed over her chest. He probably is pulling her close into him and resting that perfect chin of his on her shoulder. UGH could I be anymore jealous?! Maybe this is all just a bad dream?
