sorry about the short chapter guys, just wanted to update! thank you for all your lovely reviews. Keep the honesty up guys. Love yous!

Tyler's POV.

"TYLER?"A voice shouted. I rolled my eyes and turned around. I didn't have the patience after yesterday's affair with Caroline, to be dealing with more vampires. Stefan ran up to me as I was walking along side the woods. I was lost. I hadn't spoke or seen Caroline since yesterday. I miss her. But I wasn't ready to forgive her. Not yet at least. I carried on walking but Stefan soon caught up. "Of course, super speed" I spoke through gritted teeth. I think I heard a laugh come from Stefan's mouth but his mood was serious.

"I need to talk to you-" I cut him off as I stopped so we could talk.
"Let me guess, Caroline sent you?" I said. Stefan looked at the floor. I grew confused. "What?"

He looked back at me. "Caroline's left town" a hard lined mouth spoke. I caught my breathe. Caroline had left?
I shook my head. "Caroline wouldn't leave. She doesn't have the balls to do something like that!" his nostril flared slightly. Seriously, she was sleeping with one Salvatore and the other was protective of her? I rolled my eyes at his annoyance and he eventually said "I waved her off myself" He paused. "She came to see me, before she left"

I cut to the chase. "Look. I am not in the mood for vampires right now! If you're wondering about Jules I told her to leave and she has, now I just want you guys to leave you alone!"
"I'm not her to talk about Jules, Tyler I'm here to talk about Caroline" He was frustrated now. I shook my head again.

"I don't want to hear i-"
"What that she loved you? that she still loves you no matter how much of a dick you're acting like? That if it wasn't for you she would have still been here?" He questioned me. My heart ached. I was ashamed. Maybe I shouldn't have acted that way... wait, what did he say? she loved me? "She loved me?" I echoed my thoughts. Stefan's eyes narrowed and he moved closer to me.

"Tyler, I do not want to get in between your drama with Caroline okay? I have my own problems that don't involve you, and it's not my place to say if she loves you or not. If you want to know how she really feels, be a man, pick up the phone and ask her yourself because time runs out Tyler. She has a lot of it, but you don't!" He turned away and stormed off. The broody vampire was right. I needed to talk to her. I need to be a man. As much as I hated to admit it, I still cared for Caroline. I wish I didn't, not after the lying. I was still unbearable furious with her, but we can get past this. I believed we could, I knew we could. I sighed. We both needed time. The least I would right now is text her and tell her I'm optimistic about being friends again at least. I would do that later. Right now I just wanted to get home and do some brooding myself...

Caroline's POV.

I was standing in the small line of the hotel lobby. I had my suitcase and the wad of cash Stefan had gave me. I thought, since I had the cash I may as well go all out. Okay, not all out. It was a 4 star hotel and it's not like I would need money for food or anything so...why not? Finally it was my turn. The receptionist was a beautiful middle aged women. Her hair was auburn and her skin was pearly. She looked outstanding for her age. Maybe she was a has-been-supermodel? I wondered to myself. "Hello, what can I do for you Miss?"She spoke. Her voice beheld an old fashioned deepness to it. I retrieved the brown envelope from my small bag and let the money fall on the desk. The women seemed slightly shocked.

"Is there anything available for $1750 for, say 3 weeks?" I asked in my best oldest tone. She was smiled and typed some things at a fast pace into her apple computer. She nodded. She assigned me a room with a double bed and 60inch flat screen TV. She explained that it had an on suit and other things. I just blanked out to be honest. She passed me my room key. It was one of those fancy, swipe ones and made me sign some form. I thanked the women and clumsily dropped my key and forms as I walked away from the desk. "Shit" I cursed. I picked my things up. A pair of large hands got tangled in mine as I looked to see who it was, terrified it might be Damon, or Tyler or someone like that.

Fortunately when I looked up it was in fact a complete stranger. I giggled. He handed me a piece of paper as I put my stuff in my small bag until I got to my room. I took the sheet of him. "Thanks"
He smirked. "No problem" I smiled before I started walking off to the red, velvet steps. "Wait" He said. I was on the first step when I turned. I then realised how beautiful he was. His emerald green eyes shone. They reminded me off Stefan's. His hair was styled messily, but worked on his and was a dirty blonde colour. His skin was slightly tanned which made me think he was from somewhere sunny. Miami? Florida? California? He smiled. Cute little dimples appearing in his cheeks. I giggled. "So you're new here?" He spoke. His voice cut right through me. Deep, sexy and I had only just noticed, British.

"It's a hotel" I paused. "You make it sound like some sort of club that people join" I said. He was moving closer to me.
"Something like that. Most people here are regulars. Come here and escape from the shit that's happening in their lives" I suddenly turned sad, as did this stranger.
I shrugged and looked at my pink suitcase. "I guess I'm in the right place then"I whispered. There was a silence and I contemplated going to the 3rd floor to find my room. Instead I said "Well I better go get settled" I pointed upwards. He smiled.

"What's your name?" He replied. I looked at him, starring deeply into his eyes.
"Caroline. My names Caroline" He raised his eyebrows.

"Gorgeous name. For a gorgeous girl of course" I blushed and we both laughed a little. "I'm Adrian" I bit my lip at his sexy name and placed a curl behind my ear. "How about you meet me down here in about an hour? We'll have a drink, get to know each other?"

I debated with myself whether 'Adrian' seemed dark or friendly. What the hell? I came to escape my troubles, a cute guy is the perfect distraction.
I nodded. "Sure"
