Stefan

I was downstairs with Caroline we were discussing what we were going to do about Elena. How we were going to introduce vampire life to her. In the middle of my conversation with Caroline I heard Elena scream. It was a blood-curdling scream of pain, fear, and anguish. I ran up the stairs as fast as I could, running into my room, there Elena was drenched in sweat and crying her eyes out. When Elena saw me she ran to me and hugged me fiercely. Elena was so broken; this transition was killing her on the inside. Elena cried into my shoulder drenching my shirt but I didn't care all I wanted to do was make her pain go away. I grabbed her face gently rubbing her cheek, "Elena what's wrong?" I asked. There was no physical threat in the house so something was happening to her physiologically.

"I kk…killed Jeremy," she whispered through the tears that wouldn't stop falling.

"What?" I asked confused. Jeremy wasn't dead he was alive and well. He was probably a little mentally scared but he was okay.

"I ss…sucked his blood dry" she continued crying even harder "aa…and when he woke up he hh…hated me" She broke down in my arms. She was so overcome with guilt about what had happened earlier that she dreamt that she killed her brother and now he hated her. I lifted her up gently and laid her down on my bed. Then I tucked her in and lied down next to her. I wanted to console her and I would if it took me all night. "Don't leave me again," she said so softly that if I had been human I wouldn't have heard it.

It hurt me so much to see the pain I had caused her. To see that my beautiful strong Elena was breaking apart and it was my fault. "I will never leave you again," I said reaching to hold her hand and squeezing it gently trying to reassure her. Satisfied by my answer, she leaned into me and I hugged her. I wanted her to feel safe. After a few minutes she fell asleep and did not stir for the rest of the night.

Soon after she fell asleep so did I. I was not going to move her so I just let her lay in my arms for the next couple of hours. My sleep was simple. I didn't dream I just slept. I felt light from outside fall on my face and someone's hand on my chest. I opened my eyes slowly to find Elena staring at me smiling.

"Morning" she whispered and I sat up grabbing her and having her rest on my chest. I waited for her to start crying again for her to break down but the tears never come. She pulled away from me and looked into my worried face. "I'm not going to cry again," she said to me. I kissed her gently and she chuckled.

"I love you," I said to her smiling and she leaned into me again tracing small patterns on my chest.

"Finally you guys are awake," Caroline said coming in the room with her hands on her hips. "Come on we have a lot to do today" she said like we were her children, "Up, up, up!" Elena groaned and I just chuckled that she was back to her old self. "Hey! Don't groan at me missy," Caroline said laughing grabbing Elena and pulling her off the bed and dragging her into the bathroom. "Here are some clothes now go shower and meet us downstairs" she said throwing the clothes at Elena. Elena caught them effortlessly and rolled her eyes. Then Caroline turned to look at me and crossed her arms. I sighed and got up and she smiled going downstairs.

"Wow Caroline" I said smiling at her, "way to be proactive" and she swatted at me playfully.

"Well if I didn't get you guys up, you would spend the whole day in bed making out." She said glaring at me playfully. "And if we want to get back into the normal swing of things we cant just lay in bed all day!" We laughed for a while and started to discuss how to ease Elena into the whole vampire thing. We decided that Elena would not let us do anything that wasn't her way so she was going to decide how to do it.

"Hey" Elena said coming downstairs. "I'm hungry," she said walking over to the couch and throwing herself on it.

"What do you want?" Caroline said picking up a small cooler full of blood bags that we stole from the hospital. "I got a positive, AB positive, O negative, and my personal favorite B positive." I looked at Caroline confused but she just looked at me nodding and I let her continue what she was doing.

"I don't know" Elena said smiling, "I don't know which one to choose" Caroline nods understandingly and hands her a random blood bag.

"Here" she said smiling and Elena sucked it dry.

"So Elena" I began, "How do you want us to help you transition?"

"I… I don't want to hurt anyone so I'm not going to hunt humans or bunnies" she said looking at me. "I am going to live on blood bags and just learn to control my humanity that way"

"Huh… well that was easier than I thought" Caroline said smiling at Elena and Elena swatted at he playfully. Elena looked at me and I saw her eyes cloud up for a minuet but then it was gone. I looked at Elena curiously. Something was off, yesterday Elena was crying her eyes out because she killed Jeremy in a dream and now she was over it like it never happened. He emotions were still on because I saw it in her eyes but something was off.

"I want to go outside" she said looking at the door longingly.

"Elena…" I began taking Elena's hand about to explain why she couldn't go outside yet, but Caroline cut me off.

"No Stefan, remember when I was in transition and you said that I had to be connected to the outside world or I would loose my humanity," and I nodded, "Well the same rules apply to Elena. Plus… she has two vampires to help her if anything goes wrong." I didn't say anything. I just wanted to keep Elena home and safe away from everything so she wouldn't be reminded that the world was such a cruel place, especially in her current condition. But I new that I wasn't going to get my way knowing Elena, if I didn't say yes she and Caroline would sneak out and have a girls day. It was better to be with her outside, than to be inside wondering where she and Caroline where.

"Please Stefan" Elena said standing up and kneeling in front of me pleading with her huge brown eyes. I couldn't resist when she looked at me like that. I had to give her what she wanted. Plus Caroline was right, she would be with us at all times and we wouldn't let anything happen to her or anyone else.

"Okay" I whispered and Elena jumped up supper excited. Elena grabbed my hand, grabbed her jacket and ran outside. Caroline and I followed close behind her. We got in her car and we drove to her house. I started to get nervous. Elena was so scared that she was going to hurt her brother that she had a nightmare about killing him. I wanted to stop her, to make her come to the Grill or any other place where there was no danger of her getting depressed. "Elena…" I began

"Don't start Stefan" Elena said cutting me off knowing exactly what was going on inside my head she grabbed my hand and squeezed it. "I need to make sure he's okay… that he doesn't hate me…" She got out of the car and Caroline followed immediately. I sighed and I followed them too. She rang the doorbell and waited for her brother to answer.
