Hello readers. So I've been told that the last chapter was mainly focused on Stefan. To be honest I love to write about him.
This chapter will be the beginning of you guys hating towards me. Yeah the major problems start now from this chapter. But unlike 'What do we do under the Mistletoe?' it does have a happy ending. There was once an incomplete DE fanfiction. I waited a year for it to be completed but the author just left in the middle of the climax. So I took inspiration from that story for the problem.
No I didn't take the whole plot of the story. If I did I wouldn't be telling this to you all. I read it like almost 2 years ago. So don't get the wrong idea. I actually forgot the name of the story otherwise I would've written the name for you guys to see it for yourself. PM me if you feel like you know the story. Not yet though. After 4 chapters later I guess.
It was indeed a very tiring day. After Stefan woke up it was revealed that Stefan had again opened another memory chest. While the others were thrilled with the news, Stefan was completely out of this world. Damon understood why. So did everyone else.
It was lot easier to think that she was just a girl you were dating when you didn't have any memories to think about. But now that you do… everything just seemed so dismantled.
Damon wanted to take his brother out of the misery. So he recommended the one solution, which held the possibility of breaking so many hearts.
"Hey Stefan." Damon entered his room. "How are you feeling?" Stefan looked up from the diary he was writing in.
"At first I felt heartbroken to be honest. But then it's weird. I feel l shouldn't be feeling this but it feels like yesterday." He let out a sigh.
"You know you can tell me." Damon nodded in encouragement.
"I remember every single detail about her and the moments we shared. It's like my heart is filled and complete and yet it feels so empty."
"Maybe you need someone to fill up the emptiness."
"You mean Caroline." Stefan raised an eyebrow. Damon shrugged. "I do like her a lot. In all means before everything happened I did want to be with Caroline. However memories of Rebecca is always interfering. I don't know what I need to do to move on." He landed his head in his palm massaging his tensed face muscles.
"How about a trip to Britain?" Damon suggested.
"What? How would seeing her help me move on?" Stefan sat up. His brows knitted together.
"Maybe watching her with your own eyes and knowing that she's happy with her family will make you realize that you also need to find love."
"Or maybe it will bring old feeling to the surface for both of us." Stefan slumped back against the headboard.
Damon sat there for a while thinking. "Why don't you take Caroline with you?"
Immediately Stefan shot up. "Are you out of your mind? Why would I take her to meet my ex?"
"I don't know. She could be your comfort zone there and remind you that you have to move on for a better life with her. And you two can also spend some quality time together." Damon concluded. He was trying to act cool, but he was frustrated.
"Oh god this is a bad idea. But I still have to agree to it."
When Damon came out of the room Elena was standing in the middle of the room. Her face said that 'we need to talk'.
"Damon I know that you're angry at Klaus but you have to forgive him. He didn't mean any of those to happen. He just got jealous." Elena said with a hand on the hips.
"Well I'm letting him stay here right." He brushed past her. He was frustrated and now if she was doing this it won't be that pretty.
"What would have you done if you were in his shoes?" Elena argued.
"I would have been more careful about what I say!" He snapped. "He knew how fragile Stefan is. But still for some dumb-ass affection for someone who doesn't care about him, he did it anyway." Damon yelled for no reason.
"Caroline does care about him! It's not her fault that she doesn't feel the same for him." Elena yelled back. Why was he being so stubborn?
"How did this conversation turn about Caroline? You know what forget about it. I don't want to talk about neither forgiving Klaus nor he's and Caroline's twisted romance. Is it too much to ask?!" He doesn't realize that he's releasing his frustration at her.
"You know what…" She moved to grab her cardigan and car keys. "I'm going to my house today and spend time with Caroline and Bonnie. Hope you find what you need then. Goodnight." She was about to cross the doorway when Damon grabbed hold of her hand.
"No stop. I'm sorry." Damon said abruptly. "I didn't mean to…"
"Oh you didn't mean to, now that's relatable." She said sarcastically trying not to look at him.
Damon sighed. "Look Elena. I'm too emotionally tired to argue about all these now. I just need you right now to give me mental support. We can talk about this tomorrow okay." God dammit his voice was so vulnerable. Elena finally turned around to look at him. He reached for both of their hands and intertwined them looking deep into her orb.
"Fine. I'm sorry for overreacting." Elena said looking at their hands. Damon leaned and pecked their joined hand before kissing her softly.
"I love you." he spoke the three words and she forgot about everything. It was as if it held magic.
"I love you too." She said before kissing him more passionately. She dropped her keys and cardigan. Damon got rid of his shirt and worked on getting her out of her tank top.
Soon all their clothes were on the floor and they were tangled together under the sheets, making noises of pleasure and pain while kissing each other feverishly.
Damon moved his lips to her neck sucking in her pulse point and increased his pace. Elena dug her finger into his back harder.
"Oh god Damon I'm going to cum." She screamed.
Within a few thrust, they both reached oblivion. After catching their breath, they shared their day with each other. Elena laid her head on his shoulder and he ran his fingers along her hair.
"Do you really think it's a good idea to send Caroline and Stefan to meet Rebecca?" Elena asked.
"Let's see where it goes." Elena nodded.
"What do you think Klaus will feel about this?" Elena took the risk of asking about him.
"Don't know. He sure does need to get a grip over his emotions." Damon sighed.
"Are you still not going to consider forgiving him?"
"I think I'll forgive him. There's no use of being stubborn and creating more problems. Besides I don't want to make the few days he has left miserable." He said.
Elena smiled and kissed his chest. "I love you."
Damon kissed the top of her head before saying it back. "I love you too."
2 weeks later
"That's a shitty coincidence that both of my best friends are leaving in the same day." Elena slumped down on the bed.
"Klaus is also gone and Stefan will be gone in a few weeks, which means the house is fully ours." Damon wiggled his eyebrows. Then he saw that she was feeling uncomfortable. "Are you okay?"
"Yah I'm fine. I'm just feeling nauseating again." Elena was not feeling that great since this morning. To Damon's concern she threw up today after getting up.
"Are you sure you don't want to get checked?" He asked with wary voice.
"I probably have a stomach bug. Don't worry this happened before." She smiled reassuringly, not exactly sure if that was this bad.
"Okay." He gently kissed her lips before getting up to grab his tie and suit. "You're not going to work today." He commanded. "Just stay home and rest, I'll try to come back as soon as possible." He kissed her forehead. "And also feel free to call your girlfriends." He said before leaving.
Well it doesn't seem like a bad idea.
Bonnie and Caroline showed up 1 hour later with foods for her. This how they always used to cheer each other up since college.
"So we've got champagne, tiger roll, Chicken pot pie, and red velvet cupcake. All the things you need to get up." Caroline said.
"Damon's going to be so mad if he find food spilled here." Elena muttered.
"I'm sure you'd make him forgive you." Bonnie said.
"Or might as well get punished." Caroline smirked. Elena blushed when she understood what she meant.
"Okay enough bickering about me. Tell me how's life with you guys?"
"We went to the campus today with Enzo and Lucy. God it's still the same." She said dreamily. That was where her and Enzo's love story started. "Lucy really liked it there."
"Maybe she also wants to have a love story similar to her mother." Caroline nudged Bonnie.
"Don't let Enzo hear you though." Caroline and Elena both laughed.
"What about you, Care?"
"Same old shit for now. I can't wait to go to Britain." She said enthusiastically. Caroline agreed with going to meet Stefan's ex with him. She was reluctant at first but couldn't deny his request. After they started dating she became more comfortable with the idea.
"Yeah both of you are leaving me alone in the same day." Elena pouted.
"Okay I think it's time to have some tiger roll." Bonnie said opening the box, knowing how much Elena loved it. However as soon as the smell of fish hit Elena's nostrils a sudden wave of nausea overcame her.
Both Bonnie and Caroline watched her go pale. She ran to the toilet and threw up everything that was left in her gut. Elena felt someone grab her hair back and someone lean against the sink. Elena leaned back and flushed the toilet. She looked up to see Bonnie deep in her thoughts.
"Elena when is your period date?" Bonnie asked her voice filled with fear.
"I… I missed it." she looked up at Bonnie then to a confused Caroline. God I forgot about it.
"Elena these symptoms, I've been through before." Please don't say it. "I think your pregnant, Elena."
No, I'm not ready.
Aaand done. A short chapter it is. I plan on dragging this concept for four chapters. So here you have it the first part.
Now it's time to release my tension. 'A long ear-piercing screech'. NINA IS COMING BACK FOR THE FINALE! OHMYGOOOOD! I STILL CAN'T COOL DOWN WHENEVER I THINK ABOUT IT. I WATCHED THE PICTURE ON THE INSTAGRAM FOR LIKE 2 MINUTES BEFORE REALIZING THAT I WASN'T DREAMING. FUCK YEAH TO DELENA ENDGAME (I hope). 'Deep breath'
Please review because it encourages me to write more even when school gives me a rough time. I'll post next Friday.
The song used for title is 'Don't let me down' by Chainsmoker.
