I'm so sorry for not updating! I have no excuse except I was having writers block but hopefully its starting to pass and I will keep this story up. Also I was working on other stories, one is finished but the other has just begun. I'd really appreciate it if you also checked out those stories. Anyway heres my new chapter! Enjoy!
Caroline
I had alot of fun with Damon last night. We laughed alot and I felt really relaxed with him.
Damon left after we had dinner, it was pizza so nothing special. I didn't tell him about me helping Tyler, he would have blown his top.
I was glad though I had Damon to lean on to since I was feeling alone we had alot of fun together even though we did argue quite a bit.
I woke up this morning with a nervous feeling like something was going to happen but I was hoping it wasn't anything bad.
After I showered and got ready I took off to school. I didn't see Tyler or Stefan or even Elena but I knew one of them was going to show up soon.
When I walked towards the front doors I spotted Stefan, he just gave me a wave and turned around to walk to his locker. I was hoping that was the only encounter I got but I heard my name being called.
"Caroline!"
I turned and saw Tyler running up to me.
"Hey whats up?" I asked.
"Hey, are you busy after school?" He asked.
"No."
"You think you could help me start setting stuff up, I already know what I need but theres this flower thing I can't-"
"Whoa wait, what are you talking about setting stuff up?" I asked interuppting him.
"I found this journal of Mason's and it explained everything that I needed and what I need to do to keep myself restrained."
"So what do you need?"
"Well I already got the chains that will hold me down but I need help putting it up and theres this stuff called wolfsbane that is harmful to werewolves but I have no idea where to find it," He said
"I'll take care of that, but yea after school I'll help you," I said.
"Thanks Caroline," He said with a smile and then went to class.
I had a few minutes before the bell and tried to get there quickly but I ran into Elena.
"Caroline Im so glad I ran into you," Elena said with an akward look on her face.
"Yea but I have to get to class," I said trying to leave.
"Caroline please wait."
I stopped and turned.
"Elena I really don't feel like having this conversation with you right now."
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry."
"What?" I asked surprised.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I kissed Stefan and I'm sorry I acted like a total bitch. I wasn't really aware of yours and Stefan's feelings and I was afraid and jealous of Stefan moving on," Elena said
"Why were you jealous? You had Damon and your the one who broke up with Stefan, it doesn't make any sense," I said.
"I know its a really long story and I am very sorry Caroline, I should have just talked to you and Stefan and not said incredilbly mean things," Elena said referring to when she told Stefan Caroline goes after boys she likes.
I looked at Elena long and hard trying to find anything that could say she was lieing but found nothing and honestly this was just as much my fault as it was Elena's. I didn't man up to Elena and tell her how I felt about Stefan, I didn't clear up the signals she saw between me and Stefan, she had to make assumptions on her own.
She thought I was only going after Stefan to make him think I was better than her when in reality I was pretty much in love with the guy, so she decided to ruin it by kissing Stefan.
"Elena I forgive you but I want to know why you were jealous of me with Stefan," I said.
Elena looked down embarressed. "You guys have something he and I never did. You were able to make him laugh and joke around, he was alot more open with you and with me he was closed off and kept to himself and was always worried. With you hes carefree and happy and I just sad and angry that I couldn't be the one to make him feel like that."
I looked at Elena with a shocked expression. "Oh Elena I didn't know."
"It alright Caroline I've moved on from that now and I'm working on my relationship with Damon."
"Wait did you two start talking?"
"Last night, he finally picked up my call and let me explain everything and he forgave me and now were just taking it slow," Elena said smiling to herself.
"They must have talked after he left my house." I thought to myself
"Oh alright what about Stefan?"
"I'm working on that, so far its just you and Damon who have forgiven me," Elena said.
I nodded my head and the Elena came and gave me a hug. "I really am sorry Caroline."
"I know Elena, thank you." I said.
We broke apart and headed to class.
I got in right before the bell rang and went to sit in the back. the only problems I had now was Stefan and making sure Damon didn't find out I was helping Tyler.
Stefan
I saw Caroline come into first period and she went straight to the back. I tried to get her to notice me but she wasn't paying attention.
I missed her so much. I missed her smile,her laugh, her over dramatic rants, everything. I already planned what I was going to say to her but not where I was going to say it or how to get her to talk to me.
I remember the night before Damon told me he and Elena were talking now and he had forgiven her. I wanted to forgive her to but I didn't know about her and Caroline's situation, so I decided to ask.
To:Elena
Have you talked to Caroline yet?
To:Stefan
Yes she has already forgiven and so has Damon, your the only one.
I sat there debating on whether or not I should. I wanted to because she explained why she did what she did and apoligized but I didn't because she caused a huge problem between me and Caroline.
To:Elena
Alright, I forgive you
To:Stefan
Thank you Stefan! And again I am so sorry
I looked over at Caroline who also seemed to be more involved with her phone then the lesson that was going on. I decided to send her a message to.
To:Caroline
So am I still getting the silent treatment?
I looked over at Caroline but she didn't show any emotion on her face for the text I sent her, but fortunately I did get a reply.
To:Stefan
...
To:Caroline
Lol at least I got a reply this time
Unfortunately this time I didn't get reply.
To:Caroline
Care come on please talk to me. I really miss you.
I sent the message but heard a voice calling my name.
"Mr. Salvatore I don't recall sending you the lesson on your cell phone," Mr. Peters said
"Uh sorry Mr. Peters"
"Hand it over Stefan," Mr. Peters said.
I gave him my phone. I could have compelled him but I knew it was wrong (A/N: I disagree on that lol)
"You can have it after class."
"Yes sir."
A few kids in the class snickered but one stood out. I looked over at Caroline trying to hid a smile but I could hear her giggles. I really miss her.
Caroline
After going to my locker I was heading to the art room to eat alone again. I would eat with Tyler but those football players are jerks, I'm so glad Stefan isn't like them.
When I was walking toward the art room I kept hearing whooshing like the sound that happens when vampires are moving quickly, I turned to see if it was Damon but no one was there. I turned around to keep moving but ran into Stefan when I was about to turn the corner.
"Oh my gosh you scared me!" I said putting my hand to my chest
"Sorry," Stefan said.
I nodded. "Its okay."
I went to move around him but he stepped in my way.
"Stefan," I said in a warning tone.
"Caroline."
"I don't feel like talking to you right now."
"We need to talk Care," he said
I stood still for a second. I missed him calling me Care, I missed him.
"Please move," I said in a low voice.
"No," he said with the same voice.
I turned around to walk the other way but he used vampire speed to get infront of me again.
"Stop doing that."
"Your a vampire your supposed to be used to it."
"I am. I just don't want you using it when I don't want to talk to you," I told him.
"Caroline, five minutes. Just give me five minutes to talk to you," Stefan begged.
I sighed."Fine."
Stefan
Caroline and I walked to into the art room and she just sat down not looking at me. I stood there silently, I knew what I wanted to say but I just couldn't start.
"Stefan you have something to say so say it," caroline said.
"I miss you Caroline, alot. I miss hanging out with you and laughing, I miss going on hunts together, I miss our late night meetings, everything about you I miss," I started.
"I know Elena already apoligized to you and you forgave her, I did too and so has Damon, but I want to tell you I'm sorry for kissing her back. I know your hurt because I kissed you the night before and stayed the night with you, those signals do mean something but we never got a chance to talk and I'm sorry."
"And about what you said we moved on to fast, we may have but I know you felt it was right, so did I. We didn't get caught up in the moment or anything, it was already there we just acted on it. You and I both know I was right when I said we have something between us."
Caroline sat there, talking it all in. I didn't exactly get to say what I wanted to say but it summarized up pretty good.
"Stefan I know we have something between us but the thing is we are just friends, that kiss happened out of nowhere and-"
"Care we are not just friends. I don't understand why you keep saying that, there is more to us than friends. If anything that is the worse thing I have ever been called, is your friend. Caroline I want to be more than your friend," I said.
Caroline looked down and I saw water running off her face. I went over to her an leaned down.
"Care whats wrong?"
"Its just all too much Stefan! I keep telling you were only friends because this never happened. We were only friends and then one night changed everything, I mean I always felt something for you even after you rejected me when you first came to town but they were small and then they started growing we you were teaching me to be a vampire and then the night we kissed they just exploded and after that I saw you kissing my best friend," Caroline said.
"It crushed me Stefan more than you can ever imagine and I just thought that if I kept being just your friend the feelings would go away and I wouldn't have to be hurt and lose you. I've been hurt alot in my life Stefan and I didn't want you to be another disappointment in my life," Caroline continued
I grabbed her face in my hands a wiped her tears away with the pad of my thumb. "Care you don't have to worry about me being a disappointment because I love you."
Caroline closed her eyes tight and more tears fell, she grabbed onto the hand that was cupping her cheek. "Stefan please don't, this is going way to fast, I can't handle it."
"Caroline look at me," I told her, she opened her eyes.
"I love you," I told her again
She just stared into my eyes and I stared into hers, I felt her grab tighter onto my hand. Our lips were getting closer and closer towards each other and when they were about to meet, the bell rang.
Caroline let go of my hand, grabbed her stuff and went out the door. I stood there looking after her.
Caroline
I went out the art room door and leaned against the wall to try and get myself together. He said he loved me, Stefan Salvatore admitted to being in love with me and we almost kissed. It was almsot perfect but I didn't admit it back to him and oh how I wanted to, but I can't handle the pain if I lost him.
I wiped away a few tears and headed for my locker, I didn't get to eat lunch so I had to put it away. When I got there I saw Tyler walking over to me.
"Hey are you alright?"
"Yea I'm fine why?" I asked sniffing and running my arm across my face.
"Well it looks like you were crying," Tyler said.
"Uh well I got a little over emotional about something, nothing important," I said wiping the wetness from my eye and closing my locker.
"Okay, so are we still meeting up after school?"
"Ah man I forgot! I just wanted to go home a lay down after school, but I did make a promise to Tyler," I said to myself
"Yea were still meeting up."
"Alright cool," Tyler said starting to walk away but turned around and gave me a hug.
"Thanks Caroline."
I stood there surprised but returned the hug. "Your welcome."
He let go gave me and nod and left. I stood there smiling.
What I didn't know though was that Elena was only standing a few feet away.
A/N:So next chapter will probably mostly be Tyler/Caroline I'm not sure yet. Also again I am very sorry for not updating in a long time but hopefully I'm back with this story and I will stay here until it ends.
