Elena
The Next Morning.
'Katherine, Katherine, Katherine. Why would she do such a thing? I mean she doesn't know that I like Damo- I like Damon? I've only known him for two days, how can I like him after two days? He probably doesn't like me anyways; he went on a 'study date' with Katherine. When did I become so clingy?' My thoughts were cut short as Aunt Jenna called me down for breakfast. I took one last look at my outfit in the full length mirror in my room. Today I was wearing short-shorts and a tight fit dark red, almost black tank top with my signature leather jacket on top. I left my hair natural, which means pin straight.
Walking into the kitchen, Aunt Jenna looked at me like she knew something was wrong.
"What's wrong honey?"
"Nothing"
"Elena don't give me that crap, your face says it all. You can tell me anything, you know that right?" When I didn't answer her she continued "Oh My God Elena, you're pregnant aren't you?"
At that I doubled over in laughter. I felt hot fresh tears come to my eyes at the look on her face. At that moment Jeremy came into the kitchen.
"Elena you're pregnant?" he said seriously
I laughed for a few more minutes and brushed the tears out of my eyes.
"No. I'm not pregnant" I cleared my throat "but it's nice to know how responsible you think I am" I said jokingly
I saw her let out a breath of relief and I felt a little hurt that she would actually think I was pregnant.
"Oh uh okay then" she took a step back "What's wrong"
"It's about a boy" I said softly and I heard Jeremy groan behind me.
I could see she was surprised. I never had boy troubles. Boys just, came to me and I'm positive she knew that.
"Do I know the boy?"
"Um probably not but he's in Ric's class with me so Ric knows him" I said shyly because to be honest if Ric knew that I liked Damon… 'Oh no'
"Oh god Elena, are you crushing on your tutor?" Wow good guess.
I felt my cheeks heat up and I knew I was blushing. That was a 'yes' to Aunt Jenna because she started squealing like a teenage girl. Before I could ask her how she knew, she continued.
"Aww Elena, that's so cute. Ric told me that this new boy in his class is your new tutor. Wow I'm such a good guesser" she said and opened the refrigerator as I rolled my eyes.
"Okay now that you know, please don't tell Ric" I said pleadingly
"Why not, Ric's uh…yeah your right. Don't worry Elena, I won't tell a soul" she said putting her fingers over her mouth and zipping like a zipper.
"Oh are you talking about Damon? All the girls in my grade are swooning over him and his brother" Jeremy said rolling his eyes.
"Yeah he's my history tutor" I said as I heard a car horn outside.
"That's Caroline. I sorta have tutoring today so I'm coming home a little later" I said and felt the blush come again.
"Now, what kind of Aunt would I be if I kept you from learning?" she said giving me a smirk like she knew something, which she did.
"Bye Jenna, see you tonight"
Once in Caroline's car, I felt the anger boiling up in me again when I saw Katherine.
"So Elena, why didn't you need a ride yesterday?" Caroline asked before I exploded.
Caroline and I were friends before the other girls. We were both friends with Bonnie before…yeah. I think she knew I was on edge right now.
"I went to Damon's house and he gave me a ride home after" I said a little harshly and made sure that Katherine heard me.
I heard a low growl come from the back seat and Katherine spat back "Why were you at Damon's house?"
"Why does it matter?"
"It doesn't, I was just asking because I was with Damon last night and he never mentioned you"
"Wow Damon's third day and he's already getting girls" Rebecka tried to break the tension between us. Caroline laughed awkwardly and drove a little faster to the school.
We made it to school and I walked ahead of the girls to my locker. As always the crowd of people made way for me to get through. Sometimes people try to break my rules but this is my school and if anyone ever tries anything I personally make their life a living hell. Like Tina Fell, she tried to get everyone against me because her boyfriend tried to get with me. I turned him down but she was pissed off. I made her life terrible; I heard she had to move to another state because she was so terrified of me. Yeah it seems harsh but it had to be done. People need to be taught lessons.
Just as I started walking towards my first period, I saw Katherine leaning against a locker talking to Damon…laughing.
The anger came back full force and I had to contain myself as I walked faster to first period.
'Fine. Let him be happy with Katherine' I thought harshly to myself
Damon
When I got to school that morning, Katherine was waiting for me at my locker apparently I forgot my chemistry textbook and she brought it back for me. While I was getting my other books out of my locker, it looked like she was dazed for a second then she started laughing all of a sudden. I started chuckling at her laughter and as soon as she started laughing, she stopped.
"Um…are you okay?" I asked her because that kind of freaked me out.
"Never better, anyways thanks again for last night Damon. Hope we can do it again soon, bye" she said and walked away
'Wow that was weird' I thought to myself
"Damon!" I heard my name being called and turned around to see Klaus, Elijah and Stefan with their faces red from laughing so hard.
"What'd you guys do?"I said groaning
"Wait for it. 3…2…1…"
Not a second later did Matt come out of the boy's locker room rushing to the bathroom.
"Oh no, what did you guys do?" I said again looking at them with a shocked expression on my face.
"We put laxatives in his water bottle this morning before school" Stefan answered
"He's going to pound us. I thought you guys would threaten him or something else"
"Relax Damon, he'll never know it was us" Elijah said calmly
After I took a long breath, I started cracking up. I only had so much restrain and that was hilarious. He's going to be in there all day not to mention the humiliation of the student body knowing he had laxatives. Third day of school had a lot of laughter so far.
Why has Elena been ignoring me all day? I've seen her many times in the hallway but she doesn't even look at me. Did I do something to make her angry? She seemed fine yesterday when I dropped her off at her house. Right now we were at lunch and I was looking over at her table where she was looking off into space. My staring must have been really obvious because Klaus nudged me with his shoulder.
"Why you lurking on Elena?" he said playfully
"I-I wasn't lurking, it's just she's been ignoring me all day and I don't know what I did" I said looking at Klaus.
"Maybe you didn't do anything"
"Then why isn't she talking to me?"
"Do you like her" he said straight up.
I had to take a moment to think for. Of course I liked Elena. She's been nothing but nice to me ever since I came to this school but I knew that wasn't what Klaus meant. He meant if I liked-liked Elena. I mean she's beautiful, kind, funny and oh so sexy but did I really like her? Yes I did. I knew the answer right away. I've only known her for a little while but she's, she'd different than any girl I've met but Elena wouldn't like me. She likes the strong athletic type like Matt. Maybe she's only nice to me because I'm tutoring her.
"Yes, I do but I doesn't matter" I said looking at Elena and to my surprise she was looking at me. We looked at each other for a few moments before she looked away and I sighed looking back at Klaus.
"Don't doubt yourself mate. Elena has a bit of a past around here but that doesn't mean she can't fall for someone. Especially my buddy Damon" he said clapping me on the shoulder like always. "Just have a little confidence in yourself and I'm sure anything could happen" he said as the bell rung signaling the end of lunch and the beginning of our last period which I share with Elena.
I tried walking as slowly as I could but Klaus kept on telling me to walk faster. I was dreading our last period. Elena wasn't talking to me and I sit next to her, this is going to be the longest history period ever.
Once I walked into class, Mr. Saltzman started teaching the lesson of the day. Elena wasn't at her desk but I assumed she was late.
The lesson went on and on and there was still no sign of Elena. Where could she be? She wouldn't skip class, would she? Over the past days I've heard some stuff about Elena. Like how she made a girl transfer schools out of state or how she left a little surprise in the vice principal's office OR how she's been with err…lots of guys. The last one made my heart drop a little but how could I blame them she's beautiful.
The bell rung and the student started packing their things.
"Damon could I talk to you for a second?" Mr. Saltzman asked
"Um sure, is something wrong?"
"No, no I just wanted to know how tutoring Elena went yesterday?" he said looking around the classroom.
" Oh yeah, it went good. Elena got everything we went over yesterday, she's um really smart" I said remembering yesterday.
"Yes, she is very smart. She use to be an excellent student, the best really but I guess people change huh"
"Mmmhmm" I started to feel a little uncomfortable talking about Elena's past.
"Are you planning on tutoring her today?"He asked
"We were but I haven't seen her" I said not wanting to get Elena in trouble if she did skip class.
"I hope that she's prepared for the test tomorrow then. Have a good rest of your day Damon" He said as I started walking towards the door.
"Thanks you too Mr. Saltzman"
Walking towards my car I had hope that maybe Elena would be there waiting but she wasn't. Stefan told me this morning that he had football try-outs again today and didn't need a ride. I decided I was going to wait for her. Ten minutes pass, Twenty minutes pass and eventually an hour passes by and still, no Elena.
I drove home. I wasn't the kind of person to get mad easily but I was pissed. I understand she wasn't talking to me but she could've told me she wasn't going to come today. I felt like an idiot. I waited an hour for her, even the teachers left and I was still there waiting for her.
When I got home I knew I had to blow off some steam, so I changed into a no-sleeve tee shirt and gym short. When I opened the front door it was a little cold outside but I didn't really care at this point. Putting my headphones in, I started running. After about twenty minutes of jogging I didn't recognize where I was. I was passing by a neighborhood and I started to recognize where I was or better yet by whose house I was. All the lights in Elena's house were on but how was I suppose to just knock on their door, what if Elena wasn't home. 'Come on, Salvatore grow some balls and knock on the door' I started going up the porch steps when the door opened abruptly.
Muahaha sorry guys. Cliffhangers suck don't they? I have some bad news guys, I start school on Monday. I know, I know what does school have to do with your story you ask? Well that means that you guys might have to wait longer for updates.
