"Stefan!" Elena said again, shoving at his arm, but still nothing, Stefan just stood there motionless, holding Klaus' stare. Elena was about to pinch him when Klaus let go of Stefan's eyes and answered the question for him. "Of course he does, we're old friends." Klaus stated.

Elena scowled, huffing at Stefan. "This is your friend?" How unbelievable, how could he be friends with such an awful, annoying bastard, Elena wondered, but Stefan was already shaking his head at her. "No. He's everything but my friend, he's a lying piece of shit! And fears his own shadow. He's a whiny idiot." Stefan explained, watching calmly as Klaus narrowed his eyes at him, he seemed ready to punch him in the face, so Stefan shoved his shoulder between Elena and Klaus in a protective manner, just in case Klaus was going to pull anything.

"I fear nothing!" Klaus suddenly spat.

Oh, Stefan had hit a spot, huh? "Your actions say otherwise." Stefan frowned, shaking his head in disgust at Klaus. "You are weak and don't know how to handle yourself and your manners.."

The man behind Klaus shook their head. He was obviously their boss or something, because they hung on every single word that came out of his mouth and nodded in agreement to everything he said.

"Weak?" Klaus just chuckled, shrugging. "Call me what you want, we both know who won last time."

"First, there was nothing to win, and second, you played unfair." Stefan stated, "and now leave me and Elena alone."

"Why should I? I live here, you weren't here in ages, go back to where you came from."

"You only live here because you aren't welcome in Bodon anymore! Which you caused yourself." Stefan nodded.

Bodon was the little town where Stefan had lived since he was little, but now that his parents were dead, he only lived there with Lexi and his other friends.

Klaus huffed angrily and suddenly his clenched fist rose at Stefan, flying towards his jaw. But Stefan was quick and caught his hand, squeezing it roughly before he twisted it quickly until he heard a soft crash in the bones. The wrist wasn't broken, but he made sure that it hurt and wouldn't work the next few days. "Argh!" Klaus yelped, and Stefan send a punch into his face, not a hard one either, just enough to make him stumble back and cover his face. Elena's breath was stuck in her throat as she had watched them fight slightly, her own jaw was hanging open at Stefan's pace alone. God, he had been so fast. She couldn't get a word out.

"Try that again and I'll really hurt you!" Stefan said, before looking at Elena. He saw the shock in her eyes and how taken a back she was so he rubbed her arm soothingly, pulling her away from Klaus as he flashed her a small, reassuring smile.

The men behind Klaus stood up to fuss around him. And Stefan and Elena went back to Bonnie who had just returned.

"So what was that?" She asked, furrowing her brows at Stefan. "You know Gargano doesn't like fights in his bar."

"Yeah sorry about that." Stefan apologized, "It was nothing, just old annoying Mikaelson drama. But it would be such a waste to really get my hands dirty on him." Stefan shrugged. "Can I have the key to the room? I think I wanna go to bed now."

Bonnie nodded, handed him a key and Stefan took Elena upstairs with him, unlocking the small room.

There was a sink, a double bed, a small, old couch and a table with two chairs. It looked old but rather clean and was okay to stay at for a night.

Elena breathed in, ready to finally open her mouth again. "Isn't it a bit early for bed?" she asked casually, because it didn't go unnoticed that Stefan was still all tensed up at the fight with Klaus and hadn't really said anything either. He was just rubbing his face over and over again and running his hand through his perfectly shaped hair. He looked as if he was brooding or over thinking. It was horrible to watch.

But he smiled a little when Elena talked to him, shrugging a shoulder. "I'm just really tired.." he said and pulled a blanket off of the bed, stretching it over the couch.

"Stefan!" Elena said, quietly. "Don't be ridiculous. The bed is big enough."

"I was being a gentleman, y'know?" Stefan grinned at her over his shoulder. And she came over to him, took the blankets and put them back onto the bed.

"Well, the lady wants er gentleman to sleep in her bed. Because everything else would be idiotic."

Stefan smiled at her, such a silly smile. And pointed at the bed before he asked. "Wall or on the outside?"

"Hmm.." Elena tapped her finger against her chin thoughtfully as she mustered the bed. "I'll go with the wall."

"Alright!" Stefan said, pulling his shirt up over his head before flopping exhausted down onto the bed, sighing into the sheets.

Elena giggled softly as she watched him, shaking her head as she walked over to the sink to wash her face. She turned it on and splashed some into her face before drying it off with her sleeve. She had to admit she was tired as well. And the previous events only supported that feeling. The shock from Stefan's punch still sat deep in her bones, keeping her away though. She shuffled over to the bed, climbed over Stefan and got under the sheets, facing the wall as she played with her fingers a little whilst trying to fall asleep.

She'd seen many men punching, fighting and smacking of course, but that was maybe the reason why it upset her. She thought she was finally away from all those sick, twisted teenage boys with too much boredom and money. Yeah, Stefan wasn't like them, he was kind of sweet and soft. But he had a strong hand too, Elena had just seen it down there.

But whatever Klaus had done to Stefan, it must have been terrible. Elena was sure that Stefan wouldn't just flip about anything. He just didn't seem like the type to be aggressive and so she already despised Klaus. She didn't even know that she could hate someone so much after only a few minutes, but he really seemed like a pain in the ass.

Elena got lost in her thoughts as she slowly drifted off to sleep, and Stefan was finally snoring quietly too, so she let sleep take over.

Buzz, buzz, buzz. Something was vibrating on the back of Elena's thigh, waking her up. She blinked her eyes slowly open, it was still dark in the room and since not Stefan nor Elena had closed the curtains, she guessed that it must be still dark outside too.

When she opened her eyes completely, she found a bare, very muscular arm draped around her slender frame and felt the warmth of another body pressed against hers. Stefan was spooning her, she giggled quietly, not quiet believing that she didn't notice this in her sleep. Well, she had to admit that she was really tired and exhausted when she had gone to sleep, but still.

She turned around in Stefan's embrace, her eyes falling to his bare chest in front of her, damn, he was so handsome and one of the best bodies Elena had ever seen. She just wanted to run her hands over his chest and abs and the length of his back. She contained her desire though and tried to wake him as she had figured out that the annoying buzzing came from his pants. Probably his phone.

"Stefan!" she whispered, pushing at his chest. Nothing. She pushed again. "Stefan! Wake up!" Still nothing. So she pinched his abs lightly, trying to get him awake. "Stefan! Dammit!" but he just groaned softly, rolling onto his back, still sleeping. "Oh gosh.."

"I can't believe you, you sleep like a stone.." she huffed, more to herself than to Stefan, before she fished her hand into the pockets of his jeans. And just when she had caught his phone in her hand she heard him chuckle over her. "Nice to wake up to. With a girl's hand in your pants." he grinned sleepily.

"Idiot!" Elena said, tossing his phone onto his chest. "Here, it won't stop buzzing!"

"That's because it's the alarm clock!" Stefan yawned, rubbing his eyes before turning his phone off. "It's 2am."

Elena groaned. "And why the hell did you put the alarm clock at 2am?" She asked, rolling onto her stomach.

"Because I wanna leave before Klaus storms in here the next morning, coming for revenge."

Elena frowned into her pillow, murmuring sleepily. "But you said he's weak. Isn't he one of that dogs that barks but doesn't bite?" Elena asked.

But Stefan shook his head. "His personality is weak, he fears not being in control. He would be nothing without his lap dogs, they're a motorbike gang or something." Stefan said, laughing at his own words. "But he can get very dangerous."

Stefan was already up, pulling his shirt back on and packing their things up before he grabbed his phone of the bed and starred at Elena. "Get up!"

"Noo.." she grumbled.

"Oh god, you." Stefan laughed, bending down to pull her over his shoulder and carry her out. But she didn't seem to like that too much either, she struggled a little against him, more playfully but still.

He set her down into his car and closed her door before stuffing their things into the back of his old VW bus and getting into the car himself. He had hung the key onto the door for Bonnie, with a note about how they had to continue driving.

And that's what they did, all the way back to his home town Bodon.
