It took less than a week for me to update, progress yay :D Thank you for the comments3 And in my fic there's no such thing as Tyler/Caroline or Jeremy/Bonnie ;P
Tyler
The first person I noticed when we walked in the grill was Caroline. She looked at me, smiling. I looked away. On our way to one of the booths we walked pass her. She was about to say something but she realized I was ignoring her. She looked confused. I had all right to ignore her. She lied to me.
"Are you okay?" Jeremy asked when we sat down. He nodded his head at Caroline's direction to indicate what he was referring to.
"Yeah. I'm just...a little angry" I looked at her. She was obviously listening to our conversation. I gave her an angry look. She stood up, her eyes still locked with mine, turned around and left.
"Well that was easy" Imumbled.
Jeremy sighed, "Tyler, don't be too hard on her. She had to lie, for your own good. She did it to protect you. And besides, it's not her secrets to tell."
"It's not a secret Jeremy. A secret is between two, maybe three people. But when almost the whole town knows it's definitely not a secret."
"Still, I think she wanted to protect you" He seemed determined not to make her the bad guy.
"Why does it matter to you anyways Gilbert" I snapped.
Jeremy is suprised by my sudden change of attitude. He looks almost hurt. I don't care. I don't. But I do.
"I'm sorry," I say in a low voice. "I'm just upset. I trusted Caroline, I told her about stuff...my feelings. And she lied to me. I feel betrayed." I confessed.
Jeremy's widened, "Uh you and Caroline?"
"What?" Oh, I guess the feelings part mislead him. The thought of me and Caroline has never occured to me.
"No, no" I say and grimace. "She is, was my best friend's girlfriend. I would never do that."
Jeremy crosses his arms and raises an eyebrow. Oh right, I forgot. I'm not known for having any moral boundaries. Matt's mom was a good example.
"Look, what I meant was that I talked about my feeling about the werewolf thing. Thats all." I feel a little hurt that he thinks that little of me. Even if it is true. But what happened with Matt's mom was a mistake. I was drunk and so was she.
"Ok, if you say so" Jeremy said, still not convinced.
What Jeremy Gilbert thought of me, in normal cases, wouldn't mean a thing. But it does now. I don't know why. As if I didn't already feel like shit.
"But I get how you're feeling. Being lied to, by someone you really thought you could trust really sucks. I would know."
Jeremy
Tyler looks puzzled. Maybe I should tell him.
"I haven't known about all this for that long. I was there when Vicky died." Here I go again, telling Tyler things he didn't need to know, talking about something I didn't want to talk about."But I was compelled to forget about it. Vampires can do that. But the worse thing about it was that it was a request from my sister. Sure, she had her reasons but I think I would be more protected if I knew all along. Heck I even dated a vampire."
Tyler looked at me in total silance. Sorrow hit his eyes. "I'm sorry." He said as he looked away.
"It's not your fault" I mumbled.
He looked back at me,"I guess you and I are on the same boat then." He said, smiling.
"Yes we are. The loser boat." I said, sounding more miserable than I had intended.
"What ever. I like that boat." Tyler said slightly childish.
"Yeah why be a part of the mystery solving, vampire slaying, spell casting thing they have going on."
I was waiting for a reply, expecting Tyler to agree with me but he just remained silent. I looked at him.
"What? It sounds pretty awsome." He finally answered.
I sighted."Yeah I guess it is. But there's no point trying. What ever I do they still see me as a kid, refusing to let me help."
"Sucks. For you that is. I enough drama in my life. I don't think I can handle the mystery solving, vampire slaying and...spell casti- Wait what?"
Oh shit. How do I get out of this one. My stupid mouth, and brain. I can't lie to him can I?
"Bonnie's a witch" I annonced.
"What?" His jaw dropped.
"Yeah and she'll probably turn me into a frog for telling you about it."
"She can do that?" The expression on Tyler's face was priceless. I burst into laugh.
"What?" Tyler asked, annoyed.
"So- sorry" I tried to control myself. "Um no, I don't think she can." I tried to look as serious as I could. "I was joking, kind of. She's not that secretive now that I think about it."
"You know, on my way here I was thinking that I wouldn't bring up this subject, hoping you wouldn't either. And still it's all we're talking about." Tyler said.
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"No, it's not you fault. But next time it'll be none of this, you cool with that?"
Next time? So that means he wants to hang out again. I couldn't stop the smile that creeped up my face.
"Sure" I said, smiling.
"Ok, let's order now. I'm starving."
As soon as I enter the house Elena approaches me."Where were you, I've been calling you. I thought you wanted a ride home after school since I had the car."
"Sorry I went to the grill."
"Ok, but you have to tell me so I know I don't have to wait for you."
"Yeah I will."
"Who were you with anyways?" Elena asked suspiciously.
"Tyler" I said as I headed for the stairs.
"You're hanging out with Tyler?"
"We just ate at the grill that doesn't mean I'm hanging out with tyler."
"Just be careful, he's not safe to be around Jer. I don't want you to get hurt."
I turned around to face her.
"Are you serious? Really Elena? You're such a hypocrite. You're boyfriend is a vampire. At least Tyler doesn't want to eat me." I'm so angry right now. I was in a really good mood and she ruined it.
She was saying something but I just ignored her and went up to my room. I slammed the door shut.
"Ugh, you're such a girl Jeremy." Caroline said. She was sitting by my desk, looking trough my sketches.
Agh, I can't wait for the "wanting to be friends" thing is over. I want to get to the angsty part of the story and then the fluff ^^
