Chapter 2: Night of the Comet
After Stefan left, why had I even invited him in? It was early hours of the morning. What the hell was wrong with me? why was I here? oh my god. Maybe if I go to sleep, i'll wake up and be home again and this would just be a bad dream. This could not be happening to me...I mean how was I in a world where...the Vampire Diaries people exsisted. maybe it was a cruel joke...I didn't sleep at all. I rummaged around and eventually came across a laptop. Good. I think I needed this.
I opened the laptop up, but stopped. Why was this happening to me? When the hell had I become Victoria Gilbert over night? I frowned at the thought and began typing into google. "Parrallel universe". Maybe it could help me understand why I was here and how...well maybe not how but maybe why...okay maybe not even that either. I just...I'm freaking out here. I'm in a world where I shouldn't be and I have a brother and sister...in my own world I live with my grandparents. My parents died when I was a child so I don't actually even remember anything about them. Why am I jibbering on? I looked back to the screen and then began reading.
Okay actually pay attention Victoria. PAY ATTENTION TO THE SCREEN. "A parrallel universe or Alternative Dimension is a hypothetical or fictional self contained seperate reality coexsitsting with one's own. A specifif group of universes is called a Multiverse". Okay not helping me any. Something however caught my eye. "A universe where the very laws of nature are different" No kidding. UH! I want to go home...why couldn't I be sucked into Buffy? Or-or Supernatural? Yes Supernatural..you know that would suit me fine, something I actually liked? Why the Vampire Diaries? Hell the most I knew about this show was that the two main brothers were Vamp-Oh. My. God. Stefan is the vampire. Well I certainly know how to draw them in. Why had I drawn him in, infact?
Okay...I need to calm my self here. I need to stay calm. No. I don't need to stay calm! I HATE THIS SHOW! I HATE IT! I HATE IT! I don't want to be inolved in some crummy love triangel...and there was another question. WHy the hell was Stefan interested in me? The whole point of that show was because it was about Elena Gilbert...I don't know much else about it...except that there's the brother and I don't even know his name. I need to find some sort of way home...get home be normal again...thought after this I expect to find myself completely insane.
I moved the laptop of my crossed legs and stood, and began pacing the rooms. Contemplating reasons as to why I was here...maybe it was trying to tell me...that I had to watch things I hate and give them a chance...No. That's not it and if I were in this house myself I would be rolling around laughing. When I hate a show. I hate it. I mean...come on seriously? Who wants to be involved in a show like this? I turned around and moved to the bed and picked up the purple diary and opened it up. This person that I was supposed to be, she had the exact same mannerisms as me...well...I was a lot more quieter than her but I mean come on.
I'm not ditzy like this girl's sort of portrayed herself out to be in this stupid diary. I don't even own a fucking diary. I skimmed through it and came to a page. "29th May 2009" I frowned. I began reading.
Dear Diary,
It's been exactly six day's since my parents died, I nearly died too but...that doesn't matter to me really. I should've died. I shouldn't have woken up in the hospital...how I woke up in the hospital I don't know. I need to know, though because it's eating at me. Whatever happened to be could've happened to my parents too..but it didn't. I miss them. The feeling of being in a house without them is suffocating. I sometimes think Jeremy blames me...him and Elena. I mean...if it were'nt for me being out so late that night...they wouldn't have had to come get me...and they would be alive right now...and we'd all be happy like we were before.
Instantly I felt bad. I didn't really know the pain these people were going through...I mean...I did lose my parents but I was just a kid..I don't even think I was more than five. I can't imagine what it would be like to lose them at this age. I'd be miserable all the time. Okay...now I need to type in one more thing and see if it works...would it work? I mean typing "The Vampire Diaries" into google wasn't exactly the brightest idea...I think sometimes I should've been born a blonde. I typed it in and hit enter. I waited for it to load and it came up all sorts of different shit about Vampires. Maybe if I could find the right thing...I could go home...I did NOT want to stay here...no way in hell. This wasn't my home...it never would be my home.
It was then that I tried to imagine myself here in years to come and I shook my head. No. That just wouldn't do. I would not be in town with Vampires...I hope they don't sparkle...please tell me they don't spa-No. Stefan was out in the sun and I'm pretty sure he wasn't sparkling...that's such a relief. I hate twilight...I hate this show too so why in the world, if I was gonna be pulled anywhere would it be here? What was so special about this place?
A thought crossed my mind. Hm. I typed in Stefan Salvatore. Absoulte bubkis. I got nothing. Few places called Salvatore, but absolute nothing on anything about this tv show. I typed in Parallel universes again and came across another sight. Well...more like Wiki answers. Not that they would do much but hey. Worth a shot I guess.
"To enter a parallel universe you have to be able to go into a black hole without dying" Wow. That's uh...interesting. Maybe I'm dead. Great. All eternity here in a place...what's the name of the place called again? Uh. See what I mean. I kow nothing about this show, not the place, not the characters. The plot, hey I get it. There are fans of Vampires, I am too but I much prefer Anne Rice, Bram Stroker. I don't like the sucky things. I hate chick flicks. That was when I found another answer "Because of quantem theory, you may be able to enter a parallel universe using electrodes that alter your brainwaves to a different may not be a parallel universe, but a very vivid dream" Oh...please god let this be a dream. LET IT BE A DREAM. LET IT BE A DREAM.
I switched the laptop off, hopefully I would wake up in my own bed, in my own room and snuggled under my own covers.
"I am awake for the first time in a long time, I feel completely and undeniably wide awake. I welcome the day. I will see her again"
I woke up and looked up to the ceiling, hazily and I yawned and sat up on the bed. I almost shrieked when I realized I wasn't home. Oh my god. What the hell? Seriously? I'm still here. I must be dead...that's it. It has to bed...that's what it is. I'm dead and there's nothing I can do about it...great. I moved from the bed and went over to the drawer and pulled out clothes. Why was I still here? UHHHHHHH. Okay. I need to pull myself together here. I can't let on to anybody about what's going on with me here. They'll lock me up in some mental insitution. I didn't wanna be here...but I certainly did not want to be in a mental insitution.
I pulled my hair back into a ponytail and stared at myself in the mirror. How was I gonna get out of this? I turned and walked down the stairs.I walked into what I knew was the kitchen to see Elena and Jenna talking. Okay...act normal...act normal.
"Tori how do I look?" Jenna asked.
"You look fine" I said scrunching up my nose in confusion.
"No. Do I look respectable?" she asked "With my hair up? Or down?" She showed me and I pursed my lips.
"Up. It frames your face when it's up and you look sophisticated and smart" I nodded and then she smiled slightly tilting her head "Not that it isn't nice down or anything, I mean it totally is..it's lovely your hair is lovely. I love it" I stammered and she laughed.
"Up it is, Thank you" She grinned. I smiled back though of course it was totally forced. She was beautiful, though. Jenna. I found myself then looking at Elena. Why wasn't Stefan trying to get to know her? I mean..she was beautiful, certainly something about her that drew you in...so why was he talking to me...and not her? That's when I realized...I need to sort of back off a bit from Stefan...I mean..he's a nice guy, cute and adorable and all but...I don't know, something was telling me it was very wrong to get involved with him. I mean the dude is a vampire...he is the vampire right?
"You look good today" Jenna said to me and I looked down myself and made a face.
"Best as I can make myself look"
"You always look nice" Elena said making a face. I snorted. This felt oddly comfertable being in their presence. I don't know why...I mean. I shouldn't be here let alone feel comfertable. "What's taking Jeremy?"
"He left early. Something about getting to wood shop early to finish a birdhouse" Jenna said and she paused "There is no wood shop is there?"
Wood shop? Why would a fifteen year old-Oh. Right. The Donovan boy's sister. He had a crush on her or something.
"No" Elena said shaking her head.
"yeah" Jenna sighed dramatically.
I'd decided instead of going with Elena and Bonnie to school...I was going to walk. I mean..I just said I needed a few minutes to myself and walking to school would do just that. I became lost in my thoughts. One way or another I was going to get home and I don't care if it kills me, dammit I'm gonna try. As I walked, alone in my thoughts I bumped into someone, I looked up into the icy blue eyes.
"Oh sorry" I said. I looked him up and down, black outfit. Wow...
"Ah it's alright" He purred. How do I know his face? Where do I know it from? "Just need to be careful"
"I'm a little clumsy" I laughed nervously.
"Do I know you from somewhere?" he asked.
I shook my head, "Not that I know of..."
"Of course. I would remember seeing a face like yours. It's a beautiful one"
I stared at him in surprise "Sorry what?" I asked.
"Never mind" He laughed "Where are you headed?"
"Uhm..." I said thinking "That way...school"
"Oh right-Sorry what's your name?" he asked.
"Victoria..but you can call me Tori...it's y'know what everybody calls me" I said, just as I was about to ask his name my phone began to ring. I pulled it out and smiled at him as he smirked back "Hello?"
"Where are you?" Elena's voice asked. Uh.
"I'm just coming.." I said.
"Okay then" She said "We'll wait outside for you.."
"Okay" I nodded and hung up, I put the phone into my pocket and went to talk again but when I looked up he was gone. I looked around and stared in confusion. Who the hell was he? Why did I recognise him? I looked around for a minute before seeing a large crow. I stared at it in disgust. Ew. Where the hell had that guy gone though? I hadn't even caught his name.
SCHOOL
I was sitting in this stupid history class...why was this guy such a douche bag? I mean...seriously though? If I could get away with it, I'd punch him in the face. He was so incensere it was unbelieveable. He expected everybody to know everything. I let my eyes travel around the room again, just to take it all in. Though of course, I was not enjoying this whatsoever. I hated it...It was bad enough being in my own school never mind being here...I mean what even was this?
My eyes landed on Stefan, who stared back at me with a smile. I gave him a friendly smile back. STEER CLEAR! STEER CLEAR! DOn't make this mistake.
"Mr. Salvatore? Ms. Gilbert?" Tanner asked and I looked away quickly and glared at him. "I'd drop the glare if I were you ms. Gilbert"
I snorted and before he got a chance to say anything the bell rang, I walked out into the hallway and had to wait on Elena...I had no idea where I was even going. Stefan walked out first...great. Okay..so I don't really mind the attention but seriously...why was he trying with me?
"You look a little lost" He said.
"You could say that" I nodded, agreeing with him.
"So, did you sleep better last night?"
"You were at my house all night" I said, not noticing that I'd began walking. "No"
"Sorry...won't do it again"
"Don't worry about it" I said.
"So I take it you and Tanner don't get on well" he said keeping the conversation going. He was cute when you look at him..
"Pff" I scoffed. I'd been here like a day and he didn't like me "He's a douche...total douche bag"
"Right" Stefan laughed "Oh! Hey do you have that history book?, I don't have one and I forgot to ask...it's just to copy a few things"
"Of course" I nodded "Anything you need" Wait...what did you just say idiot? "Here you go" I said pulling it from the bag...making sure it was the right one "I think that's it"
"Thank you"
"No problem" I smiled. Why was my smile gueniuine? WHY? Oh..I needed to go home.
I was dragged to the Place called the Grill. What kind of name was that? Who would actually name something the Mystic Grill? That doesn't just scream out.."ALL VAMPIRES WELCOME!". I wasn't listening to a thing Bonnie was saying or ELena..or the blonde...Caroline.
"So then what?" Caroline asked and my leg was kicked under the table.
"Ow..." I said and looked at her "What are you talking about?"
"Stefan" She nodded.
"What about him?"
"What happened between you?" She asked "Elena told us you invited him in"
"I was being friendly" I shrugged, I was. That was that.
"Right...nothing else?"
"No? Should there have been?" I asked.
"Yes!" Caroline said and I looked to Elena who shrugged and Bonnie who smiled. I rolled my eyes.
"Like what?" I asked.
"Jump his bones Tori! Boy likes girl, girl likes boy. Sex!" She said and I blushed furiously. I hadn't even kissed a boy yet...let alone had sex with one. Was this girl always like this? It was annoying. Yet another pointer as to why I'm glad I didn't watch it. Though it would be nice to sort of have a heads up...
"Are you kidding me?" I scoffed "We're friends"
"Friends?" SHe scoffed "That's it?"
"That's it" I nodded "He's new here...so..why not be friends with him? You wanna jump his bones...go on right ahead"
"He made it clear that he wasn't interested in me..but you on the other hand seemed to be getting the attention" She said.
"Are you jealous?" I asked.
"What? No!"
"Could've fooled me" I muttered darkly "Look. Nothing's happening okay? He's a friend...I guess-"
"So are you saying you would NEVER date him?" Bonnie asked.
"I'm not saying NEVER-" I began.
"Exactly. So why not just jump him already...I mean he's hot, he's into you...you're clearly in denial" Caroline said.
I let out a frustrated growl, what was with this girl?
"We are your friends, you are supposed to share the smut!" She said.
"Not with me she isn't...maybe the romantic details. and him staying up all night to talk to you is romantic" Elena said.
"It was not" I argued.
"Why don't you just admit it? Why would you be embaressed...He's hot. He's into you...okay? Go there already!"
"No" I argued back. I wasn't planning on staying here long...so that had no chance of happening.
"Hey Elena" I called from my room.
"Yeah?"
"Do we...have homework?"
"Yeah" She said and stopped in the doorway.
"For?"
"History"
"I gave my book to Stefan" I whined.
"Call him"
"I don't have his number" I said rolling my eyes. I doubt I would either.
"Go to the boarding house" Go to what?
"No!" I shrieked ignoring my own question.
"I'll drive!"
"No! Elena! NO!"
"Why not?!"
"I'm not just gonna go to his house and be like...oh I forgot my history book" I said making a face.
"Why not?" She repeated.
"Are you kidding me?" I asked.
"No! COme on!" SHe said grabbing my arm and dragging me from the room.
"No Elena! Let go"
"No" She said and dragged me downstairs...What the hell was she doing?
"Don't you like Stefan?" I asked trying to change the subject.
"No...he's okay I guess...not my type"
"Matt being your type?"
"Shut up!" She snapped at me and shoved the coat in my face and I let my head drop, and let it hang and followed her out of the house. This wasn't going to end well and I knew it. Why didn't she like him? SHE NEEDED TO LIKE HIM SO I COULD GET OUT OF HERE!
When we got there, I gaped at the house. It was huge..way to big for one person. My eyes travelled around. "Wow"
"I know it's huge" She said.
She stopped the car and looked over at me "What?" I asked.
"GO"
"No."
"You need to-"
"I don't need to...I don't even want to...Tanner can suck it" I said and
She laughed "GO!"
"I don't want to go on!" I groaned putting my face in my hands. "Come in with me"
"No way in hell"
"I am not going in there alone Elena. Either you come in with me, or I dont' go in at all" I said and she shook her head at me. Why was she so stubborn?
"Go"
I growled in frustration and got out the car, slamming the door. I glared at her as I walked towards the door. My god it was warm here. I looked around, fascinated. I knocked on the door, there wasn't an answer and I looked to Elena, and I shrugged. I went to walk back to the car but she stopped me by getting out.
"What are you doing?"
"Getting back in the car..."
"No. Go in"
"He isn't there Elena! I'm not just gonna walk in to his house" I hissed.
"Excuse me?" A voice said and I turned my head. There was that guy again. The blue eyed guy.
"Hi" I squeaked.
"Tori right?" he said.
"Yeah...that would be me...I met you earlier...I didn't know you lived here" I said.
"Yes, well I didn't give you my name..would you like to come in?" he asked.
I looked to Elena who nodded and I frowned at her, god. Why was she so persistant? What exactly was her aim here?
"Sure" I said with a nod. "I'm actually just here to get my history book from Stefan I have homework and-"
"Ah, Stefan will be a long any moment now" He smiled, wow. Ok then blue eyes. "I'm Damon" Damon it is then. Wait brother? Oh my god you have got to be fucking kidding me right now! Seriously? His brother?
"Tori...like I said earlier"
"I know" he smiled.
He lead me further into the house and I gaped at the parlor. "Oh my god..." I said looking around. "My house could fit in here...like three times"
He laughed "It's not exactly my taste in here...but it'll do I suppose" He said. Wow? Spoiled much? "I do prefer smaller homes" Maybe I thought too soon...
"It's beautiful" I said looking around. I felt uncomfertable in his presence and I didn't know why...oh wait. Maybe it has something to do with him being a blood sucking vampire that can kill me at any minute. God my life sucks right now..no pun intended.
"I see why my brother is so smitten" He said and I turned to look at him, an eyebrow raising.
"Smitten?" I asked. What the hell did he mean smitten? Smitten by what?
"Well of course, It's about time too. I never thought he'd get over the last one"
"Ah...well I am not a rebound merchant" I said making a face. I hadn't meant to say that! AW VICTORIA YOU IDIOT
He laughed slightly "I didn't say you were"
"Just making myself clear" I nodded, and folded my arms.
"I wasn't intending on making you feel that way" he said.
"Yeah...um that's fine" I said not looking at him.
"Hello Stefan" He said and I turned to look at him.
"Tori" He said "I didn't know you were coming over"
"We have history homework...and I sort of need my book are you done with it?" I asked.
He held it up to show me, a cold stony look on his face. Uh wow.
"Right...sorry for barging in...Elena seems to have this thing where she's so bossy and it was her idea to come over and...I'll go now" I said awkwardly and walked up the stairs.
"Come back anytime" Damon said "Maybe Stef and I could get out the old family photo albums and home videos...though I have to warn you, he wasn't always such a looker"
"Thank you for stopping by" Stefan said, his green orbs still intent on Damon.
This was so awkward then shrugged it off "Yeah..I need to go..Elena's waiting...bye" I said and grabbed the book and walked out. Oh my god. That bitch in the car was so fucking dead right now.
Third Person POV
"Great Gal, whoo. she's got spunk. I like her...of course I met her earlier today before she went to school...she seems nervous. BUt I mean who could blame her?" Damon shrugged "You on the other hand. Look pooped. Did you over-exert yourself today? Let me guess...hospital?"
"Someone had to clean up your mess" Stefan said calmly.
"Well, were you successful? Did the powers of persuasuion work?" Damon asked "Remember if you don't feed properly none of those little tricks work properly"
"How long was Tori here?" Stefan demanded.
"Were you worried Stefan? Scared we may be doomed to repeat the past? Isn't that why you play your little game, "I'm a highschool human"?" Damon asked.
"I'm not playing any games" Stefan replied.
"Of course you are. We both know the closes you'll ever get to humanity is when you rip it open and feed on it" Damon said.
"WHat kind of game are you playing Damon?" Stefan asked.
"Guess you'll just have to wait and see, won't you?" Damon smirked.
Tori's POV
"Rebounds never go down well" Elena said.
"I know that, thank you for pointing that out bossy" I said.
"Well I suppose at least it's an ex-girlfriend and it's not mommy issues or cheating issues or amphetamine issues"
"You've dated guys with amphetamine issues?" I asked raising an eyebrow and Jenna just rolled her eyes. You know out of everybody here...she seemed to be the most relaxed. Even though I knew she wasn't.
That was when little stoner boy entered.
"Jeremy? Jeremy, where were you?" Jenna asked following him out of the room and I turned to Elena.
"I cannot believe you made me do that today" I said. Yes. I was still in denial.
"What?" She asked innocently.
"I am not okay with this" I said.
"WHat?" She asked again.
"You...pushing me to do things" I said eyeing her. "Why aren't you interested in him?"
"Why aren't you?" She argued.
I stared at her, biting my lip. Definitiley did not expect that.
"See" She said "You are...you just don't want to admit it"
"I'll admit anything" I said.
"Really?"
"Yes" I said.
"Admit you like him"
"Fine. He's cool okay?"
"Ok" She nodded.
"Don't push it" I said.
"I won't. Whatever is meant to be, will be" SHe smiled and walked out past me. Leaving me sitting in the kitchen alone. What the hell was that?
The next day, my eyes were half shut and I still managed to get out of bed. Another hope of actually thinking I was gonna wake up and I'd be home. But nope. I was still stuck here...in this never ending dream. I pinched myself a few times..god it felt real but...I just didn't...I just want to go home. I'm scared and I feel like I'm the only person in the world...and I hate the feeling. I hate it.
"Tonight, night of the comet! Would you like a programme?!" Bonnie said to passers by. I had no idea what night of the comet even was. I mean...what? I seriously hate this, I'm confused, I have no idea what's going on apart from two Vampire brother's seem to be stalking me and I have no idea what to do about it. I don't want them to be stalking me...I mean..why would any normal person want that? I will be damned straight to hell if I end up in some crummy suck ass love triangle. No way in hell. No. Chance is that happening to me. NO!
"He didn't call you huh?" Bonnie asked.
"What do you mean? I didn't even give him my phone number..." I said.
"That's important to do that" Elena said.
"Are you serious?" I asked.
"Yes" She nodded.
"My god" I huffed. "Timing is so totally wrong"
"When is it ever right?" Bonnie asked. Oh, check out old wise woman here.
"I can't do this.." I said "I'm not gonna do it"
"Why not?" Elena asked.
"I'm not even adjusted to myself yet" I said "I don't even know half of what's going on around me"
She frownd as we sat at a table. I meant it...I didn't know anything. I wanted to go home...I think even if I had been a fan I would want to go home..then again never underestimate the power of a fangirl I suppose. I made a face at the thought. God I'm weird.
"All I'm really hearing is reasons why you can't" Bonnie said and I stared at her. I looked away and then back at her again. Hm.
Third Person POV
"What is Damon doing here?" Zach demanded. "Why did he come home?"
"'Cause I came home. He wants to make my life miserable. That's how he enjoys his" Stefan replied.
"Well, he's putting us at risk. The girl in the hospital could talk" Zach said.
"She won't. I took care of her."
"You're sure?"
"I'm not sure, Zach. I don't know how well it worked. I'm not as strong as Damon" Stefan said.
"So what happens if it doesn't work?" Zach asked.
"I don't know. I'll deal with it"
"Is she worth it Uncle Stefan? This girl you came back for?"
Tori's POV
You know. What I wanted to do right now was sit on a bed and sulk. Sulk until my problems went away and right now I was wrapped up tightly in a very large problem that wouldn't end. It was dark now, and Elena held out a candle to me. I took it slolwy and stared at her and stared down at it...I can't keep complaining..it'll get me nowhere. I need to figure this out. I have to...I need to make sure that I get home and away from this messed up place.
It was then that someone lit my candle and I looked to see Stefan "Hi" he smiled. OH no.
"Hey" I said nervously and I looked to Elena and the rest of them...there was one of the boys...I think his name was Tyler..but uh...I wasn't sure. She smiled and looked away and I rolled my eyes. "How are you?"
"I'm..okay" He said and looked at me.
I looked up at the...comet. God. This was annoying. I would've prefered it if I actually knew what the hell was happening.
"How are you?" He asked.
"Ah..I'm uh...getting there" I nodded "Getting there" I most definitely was not getting there.
"You know, see the comet it's been travelling across space for thousands of years. All alone" He said.
"Really?" I asked looking at him. God he was perfect though. This was not fair. I was gonna end up liking this guy and then I would wake up and be home. My life sucks...it really does. No..I wouldn't like him..what the hell am I on? Am I crazy?
"Mhm" he hummed "It's a ball of snow and ice, trapped on a path that it can't escape. And once every 145 years it gets to come home. I'm sorry about yesterday. I wasn't myself"
"Trust me I get it" I said nodding "Brother issues? I can...relate I guess...I mean Jeremy smokes weed and probably takes other stuff too"
"Yesterday wasn't about you, okay?" he said. I nodded.
"Yeah...yeah sure" I nodded with a smile. "Though I had no idea he was your brother when I met him"
"Ah..we're not close...it's complicated"
Of course it is. I stared at him and shrugged slightly "Not something worth talking about"
"I am sorry though"
"I get it, trust me it's fine" I said nodding.
"Are you sure?" he asked "I mean if-"
"No. DOn't bother yourself with it...though I do have to ask you one thing"
"What?" he asked.
"Why are you interested in me?" I asked and he seemed guenuinally surprised.
"What...what do you mean?"
"I mean..look at me and then at Elena...shouldn't you be interested in her?" I asked.
"I don't know...there was something about you...that drew me in" he said. I stared at him and I frowned. I couldn't really form words to say anything back to him. I didn't know what to say to him...why had I drawn him in? I mean...uh. Not even worth bothering myself over. "You're perfect" He said and I don't think he meant to say it and my face fell...nobody had ever said that to me before. My heart swelled. NO...no...no. no. no. NO!
I blushed and looked away "Yeah" I scoffed.
He laughed "You are"
"Um...I'm gonna go get a drink...or something" I said and awkwardly left him. Oh my god. I cannot have this happening not right now.
Everybody had been standing in the Grill, I felt awkward and weird and I still believed I would find my way home from this,even though for a while and I had to admit...I felt bad for leaving Stefan alone. I think I was a bit harsh by doing that. Just as I was about to go find him Jeremy entered and came over to us.
"Had anybody seen Vicki?" He asked.
"You're her stalker. You tell us" The guy named Tyler said. I didn't like him. "Sorry Pill pusher, I guess you've been replaced"
"Back off. He was just asking a question" I snapped and he looked at me with an innocent look. What a dick.
"What's with the pill pusher?" Elena asked.
"Ask him"
"You wanna do this right now?" Jeremy asked him.
"Are you dealing?" Elena asked.
"She's never gonna go for you" Tyler said to Jeremy. I clenched my fists. This guy was a dick and I would enjoy punching him in the jaw.
"She already did. Over and over and over again" Jeremy growled back. Way to go kid...I guess...
"Yeah right"
"You slept with Vicki Donovan? I mean...Vicki DOnovan slept with you?" Caroline asked astonished. Why what was wrong with him? He was a kid...and I'm pretty sure this Vicki chick was older than me.
"There's no way" Tyler said.
"I didn't even have to force her into it" Jeremy said.
"What the hell is he talking about Ty?" Matt asked.
"Nothing man he's just a punk" Tyler said.
"Can't you keep your mouth shut and leave him alone? He's fifteen" I snapped at Tyler and he looked at me "Or do you want me to punch you in the face? because I am not in the mood and I will enjoy it. I need something to punch and you're aiming at the right angle for me to do it"
"How about we all shut up and help me find my sister?!" Matt demanded.
"Good idea" I said folding my arms.
"We'll check the back" Bonnie said.
"I'll check the square" Matt said.
You know I didn't even know this Vicki girl...why was I helping?
"I'll come with you" Jeremy said and Elena grabbed him.
"Oh, no, no, no. You are coming with Tori and me. So that's your game now? Dealing?"
"I'm not dealing" Jeremy scoffed.
"Look, I'm sick of the tough love speech, Jer. It's clearly having no impact" Elena said
"You know between you two and Jenna enough already"
"I didn't do anything" I snapped back at him.
"We can stop this if you want" Elena pushed "Send you to a therapist where you'll be forced to deal with it or to a rehab where you'll sit in grop and tell some stranger how you let your life fall apart. Or you can talk to us"
"I vote for none of the above"
"How about?" I said and they both looked at me. "We shut up, Let Jeremy deal with this on his own...because he doesn't want anybody but Vicki to be involved...and get on with outselves and help find the girl...before she does herself some damage? Hmm? Good idea. Good. Let's go because I'm tired and cranky and I want to go home"
Third Person POV
Stefan was wondering the square when Matt stopped him.
"Hey"
"hey" Stefan replied.
"Have you seen my sister?"
"No Sorry"
"I can't find her, she's missing"
"I'll keep an eye out for her" Stefan nodded.
"Hey, I saw you at the hospital yesterday" Matt said as Stefan went to leave.
"Did you?"
"What were you doing there?"
"Visiting" Stefan nodded.
"Visiting?" Matt asked and then shook himself "You know, Tori and I have known each other a long time. We might not have been together or anything btu I look out for her. She's my best friend. And I'll always look our for her" Matt said. Stefan heard a scream nearby followed by Damon and Vicki's voices.
"You really have to stop screaming"
"No please, stop. Don't..."
"Shh, I got you" Damon said.
"Excuse me" Stefan said to Matt and he apeared on the roof.
"No! no!" Vicki screamed.
"Shh, I'm not gonna drop you, Not bad. Have you been eating Bunnies?" Damon asked Stefan.
"Let her go"
"Shh. Really? Ok" Damon said and he pulled her to the side of the building.
"No!" Vicki screamed.
"No, no, no!" Stefan snapped.
Damon threw the girl to Stefan as she cried "Ugh! Relax"
"What's happening?" Vicki whimpered.
"I don't need her to be dead, but you might" Damon said and looked to Vicki "What attacked you the other night?"
"I don't know. An Animal"
"Are you sure about that? Think. Think about it. Think really hard. What attacked you?"
"A vampire" Vicki said.
"Who did this to you?"
"You did!" Vicki cried.
"Wrong!"
"Don't" Stefan pleaded.
"It was Stefan"
"DOn't" Stefan said again.
"Come here" Damon said and he grabbed Vicki by the sides of her head and began compelling her "Stefan Salvatore did this to you"
"Stefan Salvatore did this to me"
"He's a vampire. A vicious murderous monster"
"Please Damon. Please don't do this" Stefan pleaded to his older brother.
"If you coulnd't fix it before, I don't know what you can do now" Damon said and he pulled off Vick's bandages and threw her to Stefan "Ugh! Your choice of lifestyle has made you weak. A couple of vampire parlor tricks is nothing compared to the power you could have, that you now need. But you can change that. Human blood gives you that"
"No!" Vicki cried struggling in Stefan's arms as he stared at the blood on her neck.
"You have two choices. You can feed and make her forget or you can let her run screaming "Vampire" through the town square"
"That's what this is about? You want to expose me?" Stefan asked.
"No! I want you to remember who you are!" Damon said.
"Why? So what, so I'll feed? So I'll kill? So I'll remember what it's like to be brother's again? You know what? let her go. Let her tell everyone vampires have returned to Mystic Falls and let them chain me up and let them drive a stake through my heart, because at least I'll be free of you" Stefan said.
"Huh...huh, wow. COme here sweetheart"
"No!" Vicki cried.
"It's ok" he said and he began whispering into Vicki's ear and she suddenly became fine again.
"What happened? Where am I? Oh I ropped my stiches open...ugh..."
"you okay?" Stefan asked.
"I took some pulls man" Vicki laughed getting up "I'm good"
With that she left.
"It's good to be home. Think I might stay a while. It could use a little bit of a wake up call, don't you think?" Damon asked.
"What are you up to Damon?" Stefan demanded.
"That's for me to know and for you to...dot dot dot. Give Tori my best" He smirked and left.
The Grill
Stefan entered the grill "Excuse me, Hi" He said to Bonnie and Caroline.
"Hi" Bonnie smiled.
"Um, have you guy's seen, Tori?" he asked.
"I think she and Elena went home. I'm gonna give you her number and her email...she might be surprised...Tor usually is stubborn about things...espeically when it comes to guys...she gets nervous and you can tell her I said so" Bonnie said and handed Stefan a piece of paper.
"Thank you" Stefan smiled.
She touched his hand by accident and zoned out "You ok?" Stefan asked.
"What happened to you?" she breathed and then shook herself "That is so rude I am so sorry. Excuse me"
"Yeah she kind of wigs out, it's her thing" Caroline said.
Tori's POV
I was sitting in the room, my legs crossed and my phone began to buzz. Elena was talking with Jenna about Jeremy, he might be my brother here...but it's not my place to get involved. I picked my phone up and seen it was a text, I opened it.
It's Stefan, would you come outside please? I want to talk.
I sighed and moved from the bed, Elena and Jenna were still talking and I went downstairs to the door. This wasn't good. I opened it up to see Stefan.
"Hi"
"Hey..Bonnie gave me your number"
"Bonnie?" I asked in confusion "Oh..right yeah"
"Can we talk?" He asked.
"Sure" I nodded and went out and closed the door.
I moved to the porch steps and he followed, both of us sitting.
"sorry for appearing" He said. "I just wanted to apologize for everything that's happened so far"
"It's fine...I actually needed to talk to you anyway" I said.
"Oh?"
"Yeah...it's nothing bad or anything...or it depends how you want to take it I guess" I said and he stared at me.
"Ok" he said.
"Don't get me wrong Stefan, you're lovely and you're perfect" I said nodding "But...I can't do this right now, it's not...um.."
"Right?" he asked.
"Yeah...it doesn't feel right" I said and his face fell slightly making me cringe inwardly and feel bad "That isn't to say that I mean NEVER just...not right at this moment...there are A LOT of things I need to...figure out" I laughed "Before I even contemplate on dating anyone" Especially a vampire.."But that doesn't mean never, ever...It just so happens that I like you"
He laughed slightly and looked forward.
"You see the thing is...I feel out of place" I nodded "And there is a LOT, and when I say a lot I mean a lot of things I need to deal with first and how I'm gonna deal with them I have no idea...but-"
"I get it" he said "I understand"
"I don't want to hurt you...in anyway possible...I really don't...but it would be nice...if I could know you a lot better first" I said. Oh my god...I was not gonna be sticking around long enough to deal with this sort of stuff "But I'm not saying never"
"That would be nice" he agreed, though I could tell he was disappointed.
"Good" I smiled "That's good..."
He looked at me again, his face...why was his face so cute? "You look tired"
"I am" I laughed "I am...I'm here..but not really I'm in a compeltely different world"
"I know what you mean" he said and I stood, brushing my backside off and he copied. "I'll see you tomorrow"
"I'll see you tomorrow" I said and I watched him walk off and he turned, to look at me and I gave a wave and he waved back and with that he left. I went back into the house and shut the door...okay. I need to figure this whole thing out before I do anything with myself. I needed to find a way home.
