Disclaimed: You know the drill; I do not own The Vampire Diaries or any of the characters beside Emma, half-way. I only own Emma's personality not her looks. This is associated with both the show and the books, by L.J. Smith, but are extended into different views. :) I also own Bri and Candice in this story :)

Chapter Four

Emma

"Oh my God," Bri said as I sat across from her in our both at the Grill. School had ended an hour ago and me, Bri, and Candice were going to the Grill to chill out until I had to go back to school and pick up Elena from cheerleading. "I can't believe you might have a chance with Stefan."

"Salvatore?" Candice asked sipping her Diet Coke. Bri nodded and Candice's eyes widened. "You are going to date the Mr. Stefan Salvatore? Ooh, Caroline is not going to like that."

"Elena likes him too," Bri said nodding her head.

"Whatever guys," I said smiling. I'd be interesting to date one of Mystic Falls' hottest guy, other then Tyler Lockwood. But Tyler was a douche bag, Stefan was not. Stefan was a kind gentleman.

"Aww, look! She's blushing," Candice said laughing and pointing at me.

"Stop," I said firmly, feeling my skin grow hotter. Stefan did make my heart flutter, that was what guys were suppose to make your feel, right? I shrugged to myself and sipped my ice water.

"She's scared again," Bri mentioned lightly as she chewed on some ice.

"I am not," I said looking down at the table. In middle school I liked Tyler and he liked me. He would walk with me to class, sit by me at lunch, and kiss me on the cheek, but we weren't dating. But because I liked him so much I was afraid if I actually told him and expressed him, he would vanish me from his life. After months of the same routine, I never made a move nor did he, so he moved on to the next girl; Caroline Forbes. That summer after eighth grade, I became less like Elena and more crazy like I should've been. "Maybe I am..."

"Hey," Candice whispered putt her arm around me. "It's okay, Ems. Stefan, well, if he doesn't make a move then he sucks. The boy should always make the first move. You're better then him anways, Ems!"

"Plus," Bri said smiling. "If he doesn't date you... we'll kick his ass."

Candice nodded smiling. "We will!"

"Thanks guys," I said slipping out of the booth. "I'll keep that in mind. Anyways, I have to go get Elena from practice." I turned to leave but was rudely intercepted by a tall guy with dark locks. I stepped back and realized that it was Tyler. Oh goody, I thought crossing my arms over my chest.

"Sorry," Tyler muttered, but then smirked when he realized it was me. "Oh look, it's Emma Glibert."

"I'm sorry...?" I said lying. "I'm Elena... Emma is at home."

"You can't fool me, Emma. I know what you were wearing today," he checked me out and smiled. "Might I say, hot. I wish you weren't such a slut now though."

"I thought sluts were your new casual," I intercepted smirking back.

He smirked. "Nice come back, Gilbert."

"Tyler!" yelled someone behind him in a low voice, probably another one of his jock friends.

"Shouldn't you be at football practice?" I asked taking a step back.

"Nah, Coach is at the hostpital today, so we are starting practice Friday."

I nodded and turned around saying, "Have fun with your sluts." I walked out the door and ran to my car across the lot, jumping in. Putting the key in the igntion, I stared outside. That was the first time since eighth grade I had talked to him longer then just 'hi'.

My phone buzzed in my pocket, making me jump. I fumbled as I pulled it out and put it to my ear. "Hello?"

"Emma," Elena's voice said clearly through the phone. "Where are you? Practice is over."

"I'm on my way over," I said. "I'll be there in five minutes, okay?"

"Fine," Elena said before she clicked off the line.

I rolled my eyes and pulled out of the parking lot, heading towards the school to pick up Miss Elena.
