Chapter 4 : Clumsy In Love
Sophie entered the house dripping and soaking wet from head to toe . Caroline closed the door from behind with a plastic smile . Sophie slowly walked over to the kitchen and grabbed a towel and began patting her head
"Wow! I don't think it was raining outside" I said folding my arms chuckling
"Oh fudge cakes what happened this time Sophie?..."Adam asked
"I can't even talk to him without either ..breaking something ,burning it or simply slipping into a fountain...I'm such a mess and clumsy" Sophie said beginning to cry
Caroline hugged the wet girl with a huge pink towel
"What exactly happened"I asked
"Well me and Elijah were talking about this whole Marcel thing...and then he asked me to his Ball at the Manor tomorrow night...and I freaked and fell into the fountain" Sophie said biting her lips
"And where did you get that cut from?" Adam asked pointing to her forehead
Sophie gasped as she scoffled in the room towards her bedroom mirror , she was staring at a small cut on her forehead
"I hit my head on a tree branch"she said falling on her bed
Caroline and I giggled
"Clumsy in love much!?" I said smiling throwing myself next to her
"He doesn't know how I feel...it isn't a big deal...I'm just a bar girl that's a witch ..that's comprised from her magic...I can't talk to him in public...OMG..I'm in love with a vampire I'm so pathetic" Sophie said freaking out
"Hey ! Hey your not pathetic...your strong..." I said hugging her
"I'm pretty sure ..Elijah fancies you too" Caroline said laughing
"Really?" Sophie asked puzzled
"Yes! I've seen how he looked at you just now ..your breathtaking to him " Caroline said smiling
"Ugh but what am I gonna wear?" Sophie said freaking out
"Uh leave that to. Adam and I ...since we're the King and Queen of making things look fabulous" I said laughing
Adam nodded his head
"Oh Bonnie your coming to the Ball...with or without a date...I'm not going alone"Caroline said frantically
I smiled and nodded
A strange knock came from the door, I volunteered to answer it , I swung open the door and Stefan Salvatore was standing infront of me , with an awkward smile . This was awkward for me after I saved him from the bottom of the river in Mystic Falls during the Summer
"Bonnie I found you,is Caroline here?"Stefan said peeking behind me
"Uh yeah what are you doing here? How did you know I was here?"I asked
"Elena told me...and I saw Caroline and some girl just walked in here"he said putting his hand in his pocket
"Bonnie what's wrong?...what happened back in Mystic Falls with you and Jeremy?"He asked
I closed the door and took a step outside and began to walk along the side walks with Stefan
"Are u gonna answer my question?"He asked
"We broke up..I walked in saw him kissing April..its over..I'll be fine"I said hugging myself
"And why are you in New Orleans then?"He asked
"Cause I need a real break Stefan...and my roomate wanted to see his sister...and he's gay...so don't look at me like that" I yelled looking at the vampire's puzzled face
"And why is Caroline here?"He teased
"Are u seriously asking me that" I said laughing
He blushed
"You know when Elena told me about you and Caroline coming here...I was shocked ..I never expected you of all the people in the world to go on vacation"he said laughing and bumping his shoulder against mine
"Well..I did it for Caroline mostly..so technically I'm not on vacation"I said smiling
"I'll stick around ..just to make sure..your fine..after saving my life I do owe ..you ..one...and maybe you can attend the Mikaelson's Ball with me?..heard everyone's invited"he said facing me
I stood shocked, Stefan is asking me as his date to this event ,in public..it would be inappropriate ,knowing from the fact that he was my bestfriend's boyfriend
"If you want to go...its your choice"he repeated startling me from my thoughts
"Uh..I would love to"I said smiling rubbing my hands behind my back
He smiled and nodded..He continued to lead the way as we walked
Stefan and I spent the entire afternoon together ,laughing at our own pains and sharing personal stories . For some strange reason Stefan made me feel comfortable and warm inside
Back at the house Sophie and Caroline were cooking dinner . Someone was knocking on the door, Sophie ran in her fluffy pink slippers and swung open the door as she saw Elijah Mikaelson standing there ,her eyes grew wider and she slammed the door in his face as she braced her back on the door ..she hyperventilates
"Caroline Elijah is at the door"Sophie whispers freaking out
"And let the guy in ! Jeez" Caroline said stirring the pot
"As in now?"Sophie asked
Caroline nodded her head frantically
Sophie took a deep breath and opened the door,surprisingly Elijah was still standing there looking perfect as ever
Her butterflies fluttered in her stomach speedily her face felt red hot.
"Hello..I just want to make sure everything is all right..how are you feeling?"Elijah asked
"Um..I...I..I..I'm ..I mean..I feel fine..wonderful..better ..never been perfect as a peach"Sophie said leaning on the door
"Perfect as a peach?"Elijah looked at her puzzled
"I...I..I ..mean..perfect like you...No! NO! NO I mean perfect like this weather...great weather" Sophie said flustered
Caroline knew she had to save the witch before she said anything
"Elijah ..hey come on in...Sophie is cooking dinner" Caroline said squeezing my shoulders
"Really? I didn't know you were a chef"he said smiling
"Uh..I sorta try..you know..just gotta try my own thing"Sophie said nervously .She felt cold sweat running down her
"We're making Chicken Alfredo...Elijah you can stay for dinner"Caroline suggested
Sophie looked at the blonde and shake her head at the bad idea
"If Sophie gives my the permission..I'll gladly join "he said smiling
"Uh sure..why not..Bonnie is out for dinner, and my brother is somewhere...so sure"Sophie said rubbing her sweaty palms on her jeans
Caroline nodded exactly as she began to set the table up
"So have you ever cooked?" Sophie asked him
"No ..would love if you can teach me"he said smiling
She nodded and blushed
Back in Mystic Falls , Katherine rushed home angrily
"Damon Salvatore I'm pissed!"She yelled
"Hmmm why do I care" he said
"I over heard two chics talking about the Mikaelson's Ball...What the hell?..he invited the entire French Quarters"she argued
"Yes! So we live in MF...what's your point?"he asked
"I'm going..talk to Elijah and then he'll realize how much he misses and love me and we'll get back together"Katherine said
"Aww just one problem...he doesn't want you back..your still selfish and I won't go if I were you" Damon explained
Katherine spun around and looked at him puzzled
"Why?..its not like..women actually want him...he won't move on that fast"she said chuckling
"Your a cold hearted woman...you will rot in hell"Damon said snarling
Katherine gave him a wicked and sly smile
The music was so loud in Sophie's house ,Stefan and I could of hear it from the end of the street, I entered the house and the aroma of cupcakes hit me ,I began to smile
"Uh..Bonnie I can't enter" Stefan called at the door
"I'll get Sophie" I said walking to the kitchen
Sophie and Elijah were indulging themselves in cupcake making,Caroline and I never saw Elijah that messy with flour all over him with pink with purple icy on him
Caroline and I just giggled
"Uh Sophie I need you meet someone" I said
She dust her hands on her jean bottom and followed me to the door
"This is Stefan Salvatore" I said introducing the two
"Oh Salvatore...how's Damon" Sophie said with a plastic smile
"Wait...you know Damon?" I asked surprisingly
"Duh! Everyone does...he's more familiar with my sister..if you know what I mean"she said rolling her eyes
Stefan and I groaned and then laughed
"Well don't stand there ,come on in"Sophie said leading the way
Stefan smiled at me and walked side-by-side with me into the kitchen
"Stefan what a pleasure to you again " Elijah said
Stefan looked at me , he couldn't believe Elijah is in the kitchen ,baking . Stefan just smiled and nodded
I decided to take Stefan to his room . He began unpacking his jackets and jeans . I sat on the bed helping him ,we had that awkward silence . He closed the door and it startled me out of my wary thoughts
"So elijah and that Sophie girl?"He asked awkwardly
"Uh...sorta...they both like each other...they just gotta find the bravery to tell each other" I said smiling
He smiled and arranged his jackets
"So how's Elena?"I asked biting my lips checking out his butt
"Are we really going there? Bonnie"he said turning round staring at me
"Uh I'm sorry...I didn't mean it"I said
"Its okay ..Elena seems fine..I guess" he said sitting next to me on the bed
We had an awkward silence again between us
"Uh well I guess ..its goodnight..." I said getting up from ,I felt his cold hands pull me back towards him
His lips were close to mine ,he sent chills down my back from the way he grasped his hands around my small waist ,both my hands fell on his shoulder
"Stefan I can't...we had a moment during the Summer...this is Fall...I simply can't"I whispered closed to his lips
"Is this about Elena?"He whispered pushing my hair away from my face
"I..I..maybe...I just broke up with Jeremy...Elena is my best friend..." I whispered taking his hands off my waist
Began walking to the door ,he used his vampire speed to stop me from leaving his sight
"Bonnie...just..give me a second...I know you just broke up with Jeremy and your scared of what Elena may think...but do you honestly care?"He asked leaning over me against the door
I bite my lips
"I don't want to talk about this right now Stefan...we're friends..." I said pushing his aside as I left the room
I ran into my room and locked the door as I let out my breath while I braced on the door . I closed my eyes and slide my back down the door
I can't do this to Elena,she's my bestfriend ,Stefan is her Ex- boyfriend. I did develop some sort of feelings for the brooding vampire over the summer . It was not a big deal ,I saved him from the bottom of the river that Silas dumped him in . I sighed at my thoughts . Elena didn't care about Stefan anymore,so why should I feel so guilty , Jeremy cheated on me ,Stefan and I just want someone in our pathetic lives .
I took another deep breath and opened my eyes . I got up from the floor ,I opened the door and Stefan was standing at my bedroom door with his hand bracing at the top of the door
"Stefan ..what..."I said confused
"I had the best Summer with you..and when it was over I realize what I was missing in my life and that's someone who wasn't selfish but instead I got to know someone who was kind and would sacrifice her entire life for her friends and family...and that's the kind of person I want in my life" Stefan said staring into my green eyes as I gazed into his
I swallowed and blinked
He crashed his lips onto mine as our tongues intertwine with mine . I pulled him into my bedroom ,as he began to unbutton my jeans as I took his shirt off . He placed me on the bed and left trials of wet kisses all over my neck and stomach,I ran my hand down his tanned toned body as his hand reach forth for my underwear . Our night was full of passion and hot sex ,he sent chill through my entire body and made me moaned for more the entire night
"I love you Bonnie" he whispered in my ears as he thrust inside me
I griped his hair and whispered "I love you too Stef" as I moaned for more of him
Stefan spent the entire night in my room ..we talked ,kissed and giggled .
