Magical Steroline

Chapter 8 - Date Night With Friends

Stefan and Caroline walked into the grill together, their arms swinging beside them, their fingers almost brushing in the only way they could hold hands in public. Until they became an official couple and told all their friends they were together.

They made their way over to the table where their friends sat waiting for them – Bonnie, Matt, Elena, and Damon. Hopefully it would be a fun night between friends, and not awkward with Stefan, Damon, and Elena being in the same room. Even though Stefan swore he'd moved on, she was still slightly wary of how the night would go.

Caroline reached the table and grinned brightly at her friends, "Hey!"

Stefan saddled up beside Caroline, making sure to brush his arm against hers as subtly as he could, throwing a smile at their friends as he greeted them, "Hey!"

Bonnie patted the seat beside her, wanting Caroline next to her as they caught up. It felt like she hadn't properly seen or spoken to her best friend in weeks, coincidentally, ever since Stefan had moved into her home.

Caroline turned to Stefan, tilting her head to the side as she batted her eyelashes at him, smiling sweetly as she asked, "Could you get my drink for me so that I can talk to Bonnie?"

Stefan leaned into her slightly, smiling softly at her, "You know I was going to anyway." He reached out to slide his fingertips down her arm, unable to stop himself from touching her, a smirk curling his lips as he heard the hitch in her breathing, "Tequila?"

Caroline let a grin curl her lips, moving her face slightly closer as she looked at him through her lashes, her eyes sultry as she almost whispered, "I'm in the mood to have some… fun."

Stefan couldn't help but swallow, his eyes darkening as he recalled just how they had been having fun over the past week. He felt insatiable for her, and they had christened almost every single inch of Caroline's house. He wanted her constantly, needing to touch her or kiss her all the time. This is the first time they had been properly out of the house in almost a week, and already he wanted her away from their friends so that he could have her all to himself. Lord knew what he was going to be like when they went back to school on Monday, as he would have to try and keep his hands from her. An impossible task at the moment.

Caroline giggled as the look of lust that passed over Stefan's face. Over the last week they had been going at it like rabbits, tearing each other's clothes off and having sex on or against every wall and surface in her home. She was sure that there was not a spot on her body that he didn't know intimately, especially with the way he loved to map her body with his hands and lips. She shivered as she felt the ghost of his touch, her pulse beginning to throb in her ears as she felt the fire that only Stefan could build within her ignite.

Stefan was drawn closer to the heat in Caroline's gaze, he licked his lips in anticipation as he leaned in, his heart racing within his chest. It was like the rest of the world disappeared and all that was left was just him and her. All he could see was her two beautifully blue eyes gazing at him in desire, and he wanted more than anything to fulfil her needs.

"Are you getting that drink, Stefan?" Bonnie's voice penetrated the haze of desire between them, her voice like cold water, instantly dousing the fire between them.

Stefan forced himself away from Caroline, tucking his hands into his pockets to stop himself from reaching for her. He could see that Bonnie's eyes were slightly narrowed and Damon was looking at him with a knowing glint. He took a quick breath before asking, "Anyone want anything?"

Everyone shook their head in the negative except for Damon.

Damon stood from the table, swallowing the rest of his bourbon before moving over to his brother, "I could do with a refill."

Stefan narrowed his eyes suspiciously at his brother, before following him over to the bar. He was sure that his brother was going to say something to him, knowing him he had probably picked up on the tension between him and Caroline, as he had the annoying ability to sense that kind of thing.

He was proven right as when they reached the bar Damon turned to him and asked him point blank, "What's going on with you and Barbie?"

Stefan stiffened, unsure of how to answer because Caroline wanted to keep it between just them for now. He didn't want to lie and deny his feelings for her, but he also didn't want to blow their secret and possibly lose her before they had a chance to became a proper item.

Damon pushed on despite Stefan's silence, though he thought his non answer was an answer all on its own, "Don't think I haven't noticed how close you two have become. Especially after that lap dance between you." He wiggled his eyebrows as he smirked, "You did make a hasty departure after that."

"Unlike what you like to think." Stefan clenched his jaw, hating how easily Damon could read people. Shouldn't he be focusing on him and Elena and not on Stefan's love life? He affected a casual pose against the bar, his stare annoyed at he looked at his brother, "I couldn't care less what you think, Damon."

"Really?" Damon mirrored Stefan's posture, his gaze falling to the girls at the table, wanting to smirk even more as Caroline turned around to smile at his brother before turning back to her conversation with Bonnie. He turned back to Stefan and raised his eyebrows, "So if I told Elena that you're sleeping with Caroline you wouldn't care?"

Stefan shrugged his shoulders, while resisting the overwhelming urge to punch his brother in the face, not concerned in the slightest at what Damon did or thought, just as long as it didn't end up affecting Caroline, "You can tell Elena what the hell you like. She is no longer my concern." He poked him none too gently in the chest, "She's yours."

Damon narrowed his eyes at his brother, searching his face intently, looking for any sign of a lie, having known him for over 160 years had made him adept at reading his little brother. His eyes widened as he came to the conclusion that Stefan was telling the truth. He really didn't care whether or not Elena knew about the new development in his love life. He was truly over her.

"Are you done?" Stefan asked in annoyance, he just wanted to get back to Caroline and away from the prying questions from his busy body of a brother.

Damon was still shocked at his revelation that he couldn't speak for a moment. When Stefan made to leave he couldn't stop himself from reaching out and taking hold of his arm to keep him there. Their eyes met and he just blurted out, "You're not just sleeping with her, are you?"

Stefan clenched his eyes shut, just wanting to get away from this conversation, "Damon-"

"You're in love with her." Damon stated, not needing to frame it in a question as he already knew the answer.

Stefan opened his eyes wide, gaping at his brother like a fish, his heart racing as he quickly turned his head to make sure that Caroline wasn't listening. His shoulders dropped as he released a sigh, she was engrossed in talking with Bonnie. She hadn't heard. Relief shot through him almost making him dizzy. She wasn't ready for a full on relationship so she sure as hell wasn't ready to hear a declaration of love.

"Wow." Damon switched his gaze between Stefan and Caroline, brow furrowing at how they came to be in love with each other, or his brother at least, he didn't know Caroline's feelings because he didn't know her as well as he knew his brother. He turned back to his brother with a grin, a teasing light in his eyes, "You and barbie, huh? Gotta admit I didn't see that coming."

"Neither did I." Stefan admitted quietly, his eyes landing on Caroline, a smile coming to his lips at seeing the beaming one on hers. He really did have it bad for her.

"Hmm." Damon picked up his drink, chuckling as he slapped his brother on the back, "Better get you back to your girl."

Stefan rolled his eyes as he followed after his brother. This was going to be an interesting night with Damon now in on his feelings for the blonde beauty that had made him happy. He would have much preferred to stay home and make love to Caroline until the sun came up but she wanted to go out and have a night of fun with their friends as she felt like they hadn't hung out in ages. Which was true, he had been monopolizing Caroline's time for a while now, but that was because he needed her a lot more than her friends did.

He placed their drinks in front of them before taking the seat next to Caroline, casually throwing his arm around the back of her chair, teasing his fingertips along the skin of her arm just to be in contact with her. He fiercely ignored Damon's knowing smirk.

Caroline didn't notice that she was doing it, but once Stefan sat next to her she instinctively leaned towards him. His fingers on her skin made her shiver, and the heat that was always there between then now started to ignite. She reached over under the table to place her hand on Stefan's leg, stroking her hand up and down his thigh, and on each pass she got closer and closer to where she knew Stefan wanted her.

Stefan resisted the urge to moan as he felt Caroline's fingers come closer to where his hardness was confined in his pants, aching at being pressed up against his fly, wanting to be let loose and cradled in her fingers. He forced his breathing to be steady as she brushed against him before moving away once again. He wanted to growl at her to stop her teasing, but at the same time he loved it, as it showed just how much she wanted him, like he constantly craved her.

Caroline had to bite down her grin as she felt the shift of his hips against her hand whenever she purposely ran her hand over his length. She was throbbing herself, needing Stefan just like she needed blood. She wanted him so much that she was starting to feel like she was addicted to him, though there was worst things she could be addicted to than having passion filled sex with him everywhere.

"How is cheerleading going to be with Rebekah?" Bonnie asked. One point of tension between them was that Rebekah showed Tyler how to feed, and now that Caroline and him were no longer together she wondered whether they would still have animosity between them.

"Urgh! I don't even want to think about it. She wants to take over my life." Caroline frowned, her hand freezing on Stefan's leg, annoyance going through her that Rebekah was also after Stefan as well as flirting with Tyler. But that shouldn't matter to her, Stefan and her weren't actually together so if he wanted he could be with Rebekah if he wanted to. She tried to ignore how her chest ached at the thought.

"Don't worry about Rebekah." Stefan smoothed his palm over her back to try and calm her, he wanted to kiss her shoulder in reassurance but he knew he couldn't do that yet, not here in front of their friends, not until she was completely comfortable with the idea of them as a couple. He rubbed his hand up and down her back, smiling as he met her gaze, "She is a spoiled brat and is used to getting whatever she wants. She can't stand that you are not intimidated by her, and she hates when you stand up to her."

"I know that." Caroline huffed, blowing out a breath in annoyance, before she chuckled, "Though if I had Klaus as a brother I would want to take over someone else's life as well."

"I can see why Nik has a thing for you, darling." Kol chuckled after entering the grill and hearing Caroline, he winked at her flirtatiously, "You are a quite the treasure."

"Not interested." Caroline shot back, though there was a smile on her face and no real heat behind her words. Kol was slightly on the crazy side, but he was also a massive flirt, and he reminded her of some of the boys she had grown up with. Nothing she couldn't handle.

Stefan tensed beside her, throwing a glare at Kol, angry that he would try and flirt with Caroline. Though he had no real reason to, Caroline and him weren't together, and no one else besides Damon knew about their present situation. He still didn't like yet another Original flirting with his best friend.

"You wound me, darling." Kol clutched his chest dramatically, turning an adorable pout at Caroline, "I thought after I stole the show at the strip show, and how well we worked together you would become my friend just as you and Nik are."

"Klaus and I are not friends." Caroline denied immediately, before letting her eyes wander over Kol, noticing Stefan grow tenser beside her but she ignored it, "You hardly stole the show, Kol."

"Yeah, obviously I did." Damon smirked at Kol, pleased when he levelled a glare at him, "The ladies just can't resist this body."

"Please." Bonnie rolled her eyes at Damon, crossing her arms over her chest as she raised her eyebrow at him, "I think I just threw up in my mouth."

"Don't lie, judgy." Damon wiggled his eyebrows at her, amused at the fire that filled her eyes, "You know you've always wanted me."

"It pains me everyday to keep myself from jumping you." Bonnie replied in a monotone voice, her face equally as blank, "But somehow I manage."

"Don't you feel better admitting the truth?" Damon chuckled.

"Bite me!" Bonnie glared at Damon's smug face, resisting the urge to set him on fire with everything she had. No one could get on her nerves as much as one Damon Salvatore.

Damon leaned forward wiggling his eyes at Bonnie, "Gladly."

"Damon!" Elena finally stepped in, feeling slightly uncomfortable with the flirting between Bonnie and Damon, and she wanted to have her boyfriend's attention back on hers, "Stop antagonizing my best friend."

Damon left it there for now, throwing his arm around Elena's shoulder, casually leaning against her as he observed Stefan and Caroline across the table. Stefan was tense and angry next to Caroline, his arm firm around her, obviously he was feeling jealous and possessive after the flirting from Kol. Caroline on the other hand was oblivious to his brother's jealousy, shaking her head in amusement at Kol while also leaning her head towards Stefan. So she did have some feelings for his brother, he just wasn't sure how deep they were yet.

Kol winked before he left them.

Elena couldn't help but comment, "What is it with you and Originals?"

Caroline clenched her jaw at the barely hidden insult. She plastered a sweet smile on her face as she returned, "I don't know. What is up with you and Elijah?"

Elena tensed, throwing a hurt glare at Caroline, "You know nothing has ever gone on between us."

Caroline glared right back, not backing down, "Just as nothing has ever, or will ever, go on between me and an Original."

Caroline and Elena continued to glare at each other, the tension filling the room at the coldness between them. Stefan and Damon exchanged a look, silently agreeing to take care of their respective girls.

Stefan slipped his hand up to cradle the back of her neck as he turned her head to face him. He stroked his fingers against her skin as he asked, "Shall we go home?"

Caroline blew out a breath as she nodded. The night suddenly seemed like it might not be as much fun as she thought it was going to be. Elena was starting to become a person that she didn't like to be around. Sometimes she was the same as she had always been and then other times she was a bitch for no reason. They could only blame it on her transitioning into a vampire for so long before they realised that maybe it was just part of her personality that she had buried as a human and was finally letting out as a vampire. Just like Caroline was always the good, kind and loyal person she was now, it was just buried under years of neglect, insecurities, and never feeling good enough. She would only allow Elena a pass for so long before she decided to end their strained friendship for good.

Stefan held onto the back of his chair to prevent himself reaching out for Caroline as she got up. He waited for her to say her goodbyes, before he waved at their friends before walking out with her. The moment they were through the other side of the doors he pulled her into his arms, burying his face in her hair as he stroked his hands along her back as he gave her comfort.

Caroline sighed as she snuggled within Stefan's embrace, feeling better now that it was just the two of them again. Elena's words had hurt but being within his arms was making her feel calmer. She had to stop letting other people's judgements affect her.

Stefan turned his head until their lips were pressed together in a kiss full of tender emotions. He ran his hands down her sides until he had hold of her hips to pull her closer, a moan leaving him at the exquisite feeling of her against him. He nipped at her lips as he pulled back to gaze into her desire darkened blue eyes, a smirk curving his lips at how breathless he had made her.

Caroline suddenly felt playful. So she grinned at Stefan before winking at him, "Catch me if you can."

Stefan looked on in amazement as Caroline vamped away from him, her giggles the only sound that followed her. He grinned before taking chase, his heart pounding at the thrill, only Caroline being able to pull this side of him out without him becoming a ripper.

He chased her into the woods. He stopped and closed his eyes, expanding his senses until he could hear everything as if it were next to him. He could hear the pitter patter of tiny feet, the rustle of the wind in the trees, the roar of water from the falls, and the panting breath of his target. His eyes sprung open, grin widening as he rushed in the direction of the falls where he knew Caroline was waiting for him.


Caroline was sitting at the top of the falls waiting for Stefan to find her. She wasn't sure what brought on her little bout of spontaneity to play 'catch me if you can' in the woods with Stefan, perhaps it was Elena's comments, or perhaps she just needed some levity in her life. It was the perfect starry night and she found herself transported back to that night years ago when Stefan had rejected her. Who knew that when Stefan told her "You and me, It's not gonna happen" would in a few years time happen.

"You were right." Stefan's amused voice was heard behind her, "The falls really are cool at night."

Caroline spun around to face Stefan, a wide smile on her face, "You remember?"

"I remember." Stefan smiled, striding over to her to tangle his hands with hers. He used his other hand to push her hair behind her ear, leaving it there so that he could stroke her face, "I'm sorry that I got it wrong."

Caroline shook her head, "Ancient history."

Stefan stared at her deeply for a beat before repeating his words as he softly caressed her cheek, "Caroline? You and me, are soo gonna happen." He grinned as she beamed back at him, dropping his head to rest against hers, his lips curling into a smirk as his voice became a promise, "In fact, we are going to happen right here on top of the falls."

Caroline's giggles were cut off by the slide of Stefan's lips against hers, a sigh falling from her at how perfectly he fit against her. She ran her hands up his chest to push off his jacket, letting it fall to the ground. She made quick work of his buttons, the shirt joining his jacket on the ground. She went for his pants when he spun her around. She moaned as his lips caressed her neck, the hums he let out vibrating along her skin making her shudder.

Stefan moved his hands down her body to meet over her stomach, pushing up her top so that he could pull it off her, bringing his lips down on her shoulder as he moved his hands to her pants, pushing them off her hips to slide down her legs. He removed her panties next, cupping her mound in his palm once she was bare for him. He nibbled along her neck as he brought his other hand up to caress her breast, brushing the nipple with his thumb, moaning as it pebbled into hardness at his touch.

Caroline gasped, throwing her head back on to his shoulder as he played with her body. His fingers dipped into her core, the wetness coating her making her shiver in the cold air. It only heightened her arousal, exposed completely to both Stefan's eyes and their surroundings. She turned her head to the side, and reached for the back of his head to pull him to her lips. She moaned at the taste of his lips and the way he dipped his fingers inside her at the same time.

Stefan licked at the seam of her lips before slipping his tongue inside, groaning at both her taste and the way her walls clutched around his probing fingers. He slid his fingers in and out of her wetness, brushing his thumb over her clit, loving the way she twitched against him. He moved his fingers faster, swallowing her every moan with his mouth, grinding his hard cock against her ass. He could tell she was close by the way she gasped, and how she trembled against him. Just one little push and she would fall over the edge. He pressed his fingers against her inner spot just as he pushed just right against her clit.

Caroline ripped her lips from his and screamed out his name to the empty woods at the top of her lungs as her orgasm ripped through her. She felt her legs weaken, the only thing holding her up was Stefan's firm hold of her. His kisses against her flushed cheek made her heart skip a beat. She shuddered as his fingers stroked along her abdomen, the touch both soothing and arousing at the same time. She arched against him, gasping at the feel of his cock nudging between her legs. When had he removed his pants?

Stefan chuckled into her hair as he sensed her confusion, rocking his hips against hers as he answered her unspoken question, "While you were shaking against me I removed them." He flattened his hand and pressed against her stomach to push her back against him, "I can't wait any longer to be inside of you, Caroline."

"Then don't." Caroline moaned, reaching behind her to clutch the back of his head. Her eyes fluttered closed as she felt his cock slide in to the base, hitting her so deeply, making her feel so absolutely full of him. She was lost in the rhythm of his hips when he abruptly stopped. Her eyes flew open as she groaned in protest, "Don't stop! Don't ever stop, Stefan."

"I won't." Stefan punctuated his words with a hard thrust, her long moan making him twitch within her clutching walls. He cupped her neck with his hand, tilting her head so that he could stare into her beautiful eyes, "Don't close your eyes." He moved her head so that she could look out over the top of the falls, "Watch."

Caroline did, she kept her eyes open as Stefan thrust his cock inside of her, taking in all of the beauty before her. The roar of the water, the sounds of the night creatures, the black inky sky, blanketed in bright sparkling stars. It was magnificent.

Stefan moved his hands to her waist, holding her up as he moved them closer to the edge of the falls so that they could peer over. He slammed inside of her, groaning at the way she clutched against his length, her cries driving him faster and harder.

Caroline slammed her hips against his, fingers holding tightly to his hair, staring up at the stars as her whole body shook with her orgasm, Stefan's name ripping from her throat in a scream.

Stefan pounded relentlessly against her massaging walls, groaning as his cock twitched before exploding in ecstasy. He was so overwhelmed by pleasure that he saw literal stars in the sky and stars behind his eyes. He panted against her neck as he tried to calm his breath from his orgasm.

Caroline breathed heavily as she tried to calm her racing heart. Feeling Stefan twitch within her made her gasp every time. She smiled, it just kept getting better and more intense between them. The passion between them was indescribable.

Stefan moved both of his hands down to wrap around her waist, holding her gently to him as he whispered into her ear, "Do you trust me, Caroline?"

"Yes." Caroline answered immediately with no hesitation. She trusted Stefan with her life.

Stefan smiled in pure happiness, knowing Caroline trusted him completely made him feel invincible. He pressed a kiss to her temple, held her waist tight, and took a leap off the top of the falls.

Caroline screamed the whole way down, her heart racing in excitement, no fear to be felt when she was encased in Stefan's arms. They hit the water, sinking down witnessing the powerful churn of the water before they broke the surface several feet from where they entered.

Still connected.

Caroline turned in his arms, her face bright with joy as she laughed with amazement, 'I can't believe you did that!"

Stefan pulled her to his lips, kissing her with everything he had, tasting both the water and Caroline. He pulled away to wink at her, "I think jumping off is the coolest way to see the falls."

Caroline giggled, "You are crazy, Stefan Salvatore."

Stefan grinned at her before taking her lips again. A thought coming unbidden to his mind.

Crazily in love with you.
