You Know Nothing About Me

The next day.
Tyler was nowhere to be seen, he didn't come to school, and his phone was off as well. She waited impatiently for the bell to ring so that she could finally go and search for him. She first went to the Grill, but to no avail; she only saw Matt, cleaning some tables, she was gone before he could see her. She had avoided him the entire day at school. Before she could talk to him, she had to fix the 'Tyler-situation'. She next went to his home but his mother said he'd not returned from school yet; she asked her if she could leave a message for him.
"Of course. Are you sure you don't want to wait for him?"
"No, it's ok Mrs. Lockwood, I've got to go anyway, I have some things I need to take care of. Um, just- just tell him that I stopped by and that he needs to call me as soon as possible."
"Alright, I'll make sure I'll tell him. Goodbye Caroline."
"Thanks. Bye." Her smile faded once the door was shut. Where the hell could he be?
She had scanned every single street of Mystic Falls, as well as the surroundings, and she didn't find him. Some time later, she was sitting in her car, which she had pulled up on the side of the road, her head pressed against the steering wheel, when it hit her: there was one place left she had to try. The Lockwood cellar. She sped as fast as she could to the old Lockwood property. She wasn't sure if he was there, who would want to go to the place where you had suffered all night long? The place where you were writhing, screaming and crying on the floor because every single bone in your body was breaking in god knows how many pieces? The memories from that horrible night flashed through her head when she descended the stairs leading to the creepy cellar. The wood door was still bearing Tyler's marks when he had tried to get out. Now that she saw it again, they needed to replace it before the next full moon or he'll really get out. Hmm, 'they', if there will still be one. She pulled herself back together and slowly pushed the door open.
"Tyler? Are you there?" she called out as she carefully entered the cellar.
The cellar was still a mess, the door with the steel bars was hanging out of its hinges. He wasn't there. If he didn't want to be found, fine, she would wait until he found her. It was getting dark so she went back home. A part of her was hoping that he'd stopped by his house, got her message and that maybe he'd be waiting for her at her house. Of course he wasn't there, her house was silent, dark, no one was there. Her mother had already left for her night shift. She was alone. Again. She tried to keep herself occupied but he was on her mind the entire evening, she couldn't stop worrying about him. What if he had done something stupid?
As she entered her room, she found Tyler sprawled out on her bed.
"Breaking and entering the sheriff's house? Again." She was so relieved to see him.
"Tell me about your transformation" he only said, not looking at her but at the ceiling. She slowly made her way to the bed and laid down beside him.
"I guess it's only fair, I got to watch yours" she answered, mimicking his position on the bed, her right arm across her stomach and her left one folded behind her head. She let a breath. "Well, on Founder's Day, we had a car accident." She felt him tense beside her. "I had internal bleeding, it was pretty bad and they weren't sure if I was going to make it. So Damon gave me some of his blood, to heal me and it worked, I was better. But then, in the middle of the night I woke up and there was someone in my room. She said I needed to deliver a message to the Salvatore brothers, she said 'Game on'. I didn't understand what she was saying but before I could react, she was smothering me with a pillow. I died that night and came back. I was alone, I was confused, my body was in control and was pushing me to feed. And I fed, on a blood bag. I think that you know the rest of the story." She stopped and closed her eyes, reliving the memory. He was looking at her, she could feel it but she didn't say or do anything.
"Game on?" he suddenly asked.
"Yup. I got smothered and killed by one of the Salvatore's ex girlfriend," she paused, "bitch." she then scoffed.
"Why? Why you?" There it was, the question she didn't want to answer. She sighed but didn't reply. "There's more. Why are you not telling me?"
"Because it's bad. Very bad." She finally answered, opening her eyes. She sat up and leaned against the bed board. "Are you sure you want me to answer that, because that's maybe not what you want to hear." She looked at him.
"How worse could it be? I want to know. I never lied to you about anything. So, yes, I want to hear it."
"You and me, it was all part of her plan."
"'Her'? You mean the bitch?" she nodded. "Her plan for what?"
"She pissed one of the Originals – the first vampires that ever existed – 500 somewhat years ago. He's been after her ever since and she wanted to hand us all over to him and use us and the moonstone. She wanted to be forgiven."
"The moonstone? What has the moonstone to do with all of this?"
"Some wizard man put a curse on it many, many years ago. The curse of the sun and the moon as they call it. Since then, werewolves could only turn on full moons and vampires are weakened by the sun. To break it, a vampire, a werewolf and a doppelgänger need to be sacrificed. But then something happened that wasn't part of the plan and she needed another werewolf so she compelled Matt and Sarah to do whatever it takes to make you kill one of them and therefore trigger the curse."
"Who's the doppelgänger?" he frowned.
"Elena is. She looks exactly like Katherine, aka the bitch. They could be twins. It's so creepy, she freaks me out, she's just plain evil."
"Where is she now anyway? Is she dead?"
"You could say that, but I can assure you that right now, she's rotting in hell." she snickered. There was silence again. After a moment, Tyler spoke up.
"Wait, you said that Katherine needed another werewolf, what did-" he stopped, "Mason was originally the one to be sacrificed… He's dead, isn't he?" She got off the bed and walked to her dresser, her back to him. She couldn't stand the sadness and the hurt she saw in his eyes.
"Yes" she finally whispered. She heard him get off the bed. She turned around and saw him starting to walk towards her. She followed him with her eyes until he was in front of her, his hands clenched into fists.
"Who? Who killed him?"
"Damon."
"You knew the entire time, didn't you?" she kept looking at him and didn't reply, she knew he knew the answer, "What's with the lame lies about Mason going surfing somewhere and you trying to reassure me when you knew exactly what was going on? And here I thought that I could trust you, you are-were my friend, I don't know anymore and you didn't even tell me something that important… I'm such an idiot…" he didn't continue. His stare was hard, eyes sparkling with anger and disappointment.
"I'm- I'm sorry." she said quietly.
"You're sorry." he laughed humorlessly. "You know what, I'm done, and I'm out of here." he started to walk towards the front door. She followed him.
"Wait! Where are you going? You're not going to disappear again, are you? Because I searched for you everywhere and I was so worried-" she grabbed his arm, trying to stop him but he shook her off, "Please don't do something stupid! Even if you don't believe me, I'll repeat it again. You are my friend and-" but he held up a hand to silence her.
"Stop, Caroline… I'm not sure if I still want to talk to you right now. I came here tonight because I was ready to forgive you when you lied about you being the only vampire in town. But right now, after all you said-" He stopped to open the door, before continuing, "I don't know if I can even forgive you. I need to think, I need to be alone for a while. Don't try to find me or contact me." With that, he was gone. Again. She closed the door and leaned against it. She put her head in her hands, what had she done?
