"I can't believe you're dragging me to a vampire hunters hideout just to save Enzo." Stefan said, clearly angry.

"Would you like to get out of the car? Because I'm capable of doing this on my own." Caroline shot back.

"Are you crazy, I'm not letting you go into this alone."

"Then do me a favor and shut up. You're the reason he's in this mess anyway."

Stefan sighed. "He's not a good guy, Caroline."

"You don't even know him. You didn't spend all summer with him. When I was falling apart over Bonnie he was the one there for me, when it should have been you. So, you have no room to judge him."

"You made your point." Stefan said looking out the passenger window.

"Good."

They rode in silence the rest of the way until Caroline turned the car into a driveway. The small building was hidden behind trees and out in the middle of no where.

"This is where Tripp is hiding his vampires?"

"It's the address Matt gave me." Caroline answered.

"And how do we know Tripp isn't going to be in there waiting for us?"

"Because, he's at training right now. I know what I'm doing, Stefan."

"Alright chief, but if Tripp owns this place how are we getting in?"

"That's where he comes in." Caroline answered motioning behind Stefan to the car just pulled up. "I told you, I know what I'm doing."

"She drug you into this?" Stefan asked Jeremy when he walked over to them.

"She can be pretty persuasive man. I know you don't like him, but he doesn't deserve to die. At least not how Tripp does it."

"Fine." Stefan said giving in. "What's the plan?"

"I'm glad you asked. Jeremy's going to go in there and get Enzo, we're going to stand watch, and Matt is going to text me if Tripp leaves. It's very simple. There is no possible way to mess this up." They all nodded in agreement as the walked to the house.

Caroline reached for the doorknob and jumped back in pain as soon as she touched it. "Vervain on the door, smart."

Enzo's eyes went immediately to Caroline when Jeremy opened the door. "Hello, gorgeous. Come to my rescue?"

Jeremy walked cautiously into the room and when nothing seemed to happen to to untie Enzo. Stefan and Caroline were watching the road and woods around them, making sure no one was watching them.

"Is your hand okay?" Stefan asked.

"Yeah, Stefan. I'm a vampire I heal in like five seconds."

Stefan didn't say another word. He understood why she was so upset with him and didn't want to push it. Within minutes Enzo and Jeremy came out of the house. Enzo was a little unsteady on his feel at first; from not feeding and having vervain in his system. Caroline instinctively threw her arms around Enzo and Stefan looked away.

"It's great to see you, but I have to take care of something." Enzo pulled away and walked up to Stefan. With no warning he hit Stefan so hard he fell to the ground.

"Enzo." Caroline said disapprovingly walking over to help Stefan up.

"And this is where I leave." Jeremy said. "I'm sure you can handle them."

"Thanks, Jer." Caroline said sarcastically.

"You just gave me over to this guy." Enzo said trying to get between Caroline and Stefan. "You deserve much more than that."

"You two can fight this out later, but right now we really need to go." Caroline said looking from Enzo to Stefan.

"Alright, but I call shotgun." Enzo announced.

"Just get in the car." Caroline said through gritted teeth.

"You know what you two have a nice drive." Stefan said before he turned and ran off at full vampire speed.

Caroline sighed and started for the car, but Enzo put a hand on her shoulder stopping her. "Thank you for saving me."

"Don't make me regret it."

Later that night Caroline was sitting on Elena's bed telling her the events of the day when there was a knock on their door. Elena opened the door to find Stefan standing with his hands in his pockets.

"Hey, could I have a moment alone with Caroline?"

Elena looked at Caroline who nodded. "I'll be in the lounge." Elena said walking past Stefan.

He walked into the room and shut the door behind him. Caroline stood up and pretended to be straightening something on her desk.

"Where's Enzo?"

"Probably at a bar somewhere." Caroline answered not looking at him.

"So, you two spent a lot of time together?"

She finally turned to him. "Why do you even care?"

"I just feel like I've been replaced."

"I'm sorry that I needed someone. If you care so much you should have stayed." Stefan looked away from her. "If you just came here to ask about Enzo, you should go."

He took a breath and closed the gap between them so they were standing inches apart. "Maybe that's not the only reason I came here."

She had a hard time thinking straight. "Then why?"

Slowly, he put his lips to hers and his hands on her waist. "For that."
