So I'm not really getting a lot of reviews for this story, that means less updates... that is all.
I don't own so no asking.
Scarlett's POV
I didn't know how I expected him to act but I'm guessing this was the best reaction I could have gotten. Most people would have ran away at the news, other vampires would do exactly what I asked in fear of being killed.
And even less would try to take me on thinking I wasn't that big of a challenge, but Stefan just stared at me with his mouth hung open. Yep, best reaction ever; too bad I can't compel him to forget this with all the vervain in his system.
It was getting a bit awkward so I waved my hand in front of his face. "Hello Stefan? Stefan, you there?" I snapped my fingers and he blinked.
"What, how… but you, it's not possible I… you can't be." He tried to make a full sentence but sadly failed.
"Yeah, when I grew up with you I used a spell so I could return to my child age and then age like a normal human. I was already hundreds of years old, older than Katherine." I put my hands together and rested them on my knees. "I was already a vampire/witch."
"How do you expect me to not tell anyone? This changes everything, if Klaus is coming how will you kill him? They have to know, Damon has to know." He ran a hand through his hair and let out a huge breath.
"No, they can't know. If you tell them all of you will be in more danger than you already are, Klaus will use the fact that I love Damon to his advantage and probably get both you and him killed. Please, if you don't for it for me do it for him. They'll kill him and I wouldn't be able to like with that, live with both of you dead because of me. I will help you take down Klaus and after that they can know the truth but not before, not when Klaus has the advantage." I felt the tears on my cheeks. "He's already killed my family, the people I loved. Don't let him take Damon away from me too, I couldn't bare it. Klaus will do everything and anything to take me down, I'm the real threat to him because I know him better than anyone; better than Elijah. You can't let him do that, Damon's your brother and even after everything he's done you still love him and I know it. Don't let Klaus win, I'm begging you. The second this information puts Elena in danger I'll tell everyone the truth but not until then. Please." The last word was I whisper but I know he heard it.
He looked away and didn't say anything for a long time. "I won't tell them, as long as it helps take down Klaus without a lot of people getting hurt."
I hugged him. "Thank you Stef. You don't know how much this means to me."
He hugged me back. "Well, you always were the one that defended me from Damon."
I smirked and let him go. "Well someone had to besides it was fun taking your side."
I walked over to my bag. "You guys left my things where you found them, right?"
He nodded. "Yeah, everything's there."
"Great 'cause I need another drink." I pulled out my small bottle of whiskey and opened it.
Just as I was about to put it to my mouth he took it. "Don't you think you're had enough to drink?"
I pouted. "But Stefan, it's not like I'm going to get drunk I just want some. Besides it helps me with the thirst if ya know what I mean."
He looked at me and then at the bottle before handing it back to me. "If you need blood we have some back at the boarding house."
I took a huge drink and wiped my mouth. "Actually, I have my own supplier. I just haven't drunk any in a while, not a good idea."
He nodded and sat back down. "So you're an original? I always thought you were somehow older than Damon."
I laughed and sat down on the other couch. "Yeah, I'm older; hundreds of years older. Only people older than me are Elijah and Klaus, other than that…" I shrugged. "Everyone else is younger to me."
He nodded. "And how did you become a vampire?"
I looked up at him. "I'd rather not talk about that, too many bad memories." I took another drink and sighed.
"Then what about how you're part witch?" he asked.
I looked at the bottle I my hands. "My mother had an affair with a warlock. My father was furious, to say the least; he hated me. I returned the favor."
"How do Klaus and Elijah play into your life story?"
I mentally froze. "Crap, what do I tell him?"
"That, well as you know we weren't always vampires, at some point we were human. And during those years he was my best friend, he wasn't a complete psychopath. But everything changed when… well you know, we turned he got power hungry I left he swore to track me down and make me pay. Which caused all other vampires who value life to stay away from us originals; that's how we got lost in time. No one wanted anything to do with powerful beings that "like destruction" and "make you wish you were dead" which was never true in the first place. Elijah wasn't like Klaus, I had a bond with both but in different ways. Klaus understood me, Elijah was the one I could always turn to for help."
"And why did he take you?" Stefan asked.
"As I'm sure you know, he too wants Klaus dead. So he asked me to form an alliance with him and help take down Klaus." I looked down at the ground as I tapped my fingers on the couch.
"Do you trust him?" He asked carefully.
I looked up at him with a serious look. "Yes." He was about to speak when I continued. "But that doesn't mean you should, my reasons for trusting don't apply to any of you."
"Why?" He stood up and paced the room. "Why trust him after what he and Klaus have done to you?"
"He never did anything to me, it was all Klaus." I gave him a small smile. "Besides, it was probably the only way to get out of there fast. I don't like being locked up in one place too long, but you already knew that."
He gave her his own smile. "You really have changed, more than I could imagine. And what's with the hair?"
I pull a strand of my red hair in front of my face. "I got bored and decided to try some strange spell, didn't work out as well as I hoped. When I dyed it back to normal I decided to keep this part the same."
He gave a small chuckle. "What for?"
"I don't know, I guess I just wanted some change in my life and this was the closest I could come to it."
He crossed his arms and motioned for the stairs. "You should probably get some sleep, you're going to have a killer headache in the morning."
"Fine, tell everyone else not to bother me of they die." I made my way up the stairs and too my old room.
He chuckled again.
"I wasn't joking."
You know the drill! REVIEW + NICENESS = UPDATES!
