Disclamier: I do not own anything. Story title from Paramore's song "Stuck On You". I do not own the song Stuck On You and the song "Pieces". All rights to whomever.
A/N : This is my first TVD fanfic, I am going to make every chapter paralleled with a song (at least I hope to make) This story takes place after Tyler and Caroline's fight in 2.13 "Daddy Issues" This chapters title is from Sum 41's song. Caroline-centric chapter.
Chapter 1: Pieces
"I tried to be perfect,
But nothing was worth it,
I don't believe it makes me real.
I thought it'd be easy,
But no one believes me,
I meant all the things I said."
After shuting the door in Tyler's face Caroline stood there for a while trying to fight back the tears. She was not girly, little Caroline anymore. But she was still Caroline so she started to over-analyze the speech she had just given. She was too tired to go through this, she was dirty, her hair was a mess. Before she went to take a shower, she open her door's white curtains slowly, secretly hoping to see Tyler standing on her porch. But he was gone. She gulped and her face waved with changing emotions. She was mad at him, why would she want to see him? She walked to her bathroom, take off her bloody clothes and slowly get in her shower, she closed her eyes as the hot water slide on her skin. As she closed her eyes, Tyler's face during his first moon apperead. Scared, painful, crying. She couldn't hold her tears back anymore, she started to cry, her tears mixing with the water coming from her shower. Her own voice echoed inside her. Her words to Tyler.
"You're okay, you made it, you didn't get out. You're okay."
Then she heard Tyler's voice, his respond to her.
"No, I'm not." her tears started to fall faster as she heard his voice in her head. "Me,neither." she whispered to herself. She slowly slide down, her back against the wall. She just sat under the water, holding her head as her tears go by.
Meanwhile, Tyler was much more confused. He didn't want to hate Caroline. She was his friend, she was there for him while no one was, he had this weird feeling he felt whenever he saw her, he knew her since they were babies. But, he was a werewolf and she was a vampire. She lied to him. He trusted her, she let him down. Still, she never deserved to be tourtured. She never deserved to die. So why did he hesitated to open the cage and why did he stay put when Jules put a gun behind her head? He was walking for almost an hour without knowing where he is going. He was always hearing her words inside his head.
"We're not friends anymore." What does that mean? That she would come after him? That she would kill him? That Stefan and Damon were also after him? He was starting to be a paranoiac. He was a mess. He didn't know what to do, who to trust. Where was he going? This was definitely not the road to his house. He could go find Jules, ask to her why did they do this to Caroline. But he already knew the answer and he already knew that they were being unfair. He didn't wanted to be a part of the wolf pack, if this was what they do, he didn't want to be in a wolf pack. He kept hearing Caroline's voice. "I care, Tyler!" Shecared about him. He was a werewolf and she was a vampire but she cared about him. Why? Why did she cared about him? Why did she kissed him back? He remembered their kiss, so passionate. He remembred the feeling he had when she touched his chest. He closed his eyes and Caroline's smile opened his eyes and turned away.
After taking a long shower, Caroline finally felt clean and calm again. She put on her robe and sat on her couch. She was really thankful that her mother was working. She needed some quite time, she needed to be normal again. Feel normal again. She heard her door knock again. She sighed and walked to the door. She was too tired for this, if it was Tyler she didn't had any power to fight with him again. She opened the door and saw Stefan standing.
"Hey." she said, tired.
"Hey."
"What's going on?" she asked.
"I was a bit worried about you. After everything you went through tonight." Stefan answered.
"I'm fine." she was lying, again. She wasn't fine at all, she was a mess. She lied to Matt, she lost Tyler and she was weak.
"Good, but just incase I brought some back-up." Stefan said.
She was curious now, she wore her smile. Elena walked and then Bonnie appreared. She started to cry and hugged them. After Stefan went, she kept holding her friends crying her heart out. "Sshh..." Elena said rubbing her back. "It's all fine now." Bonnie said. "I-I missed you so much." she breathed still crying. She let go of her friends and wipe away her tears. She sighed deeply and closed the door. She turned to her friends. "Yeah, okay." she said fixing her robe. "I'm fine." she smiled at them. "Good." Bonnie said. "Because we have so much to talk about!" Bonnie smiled at her friend. "I brought 'Breakfast At Tiffany's', I know it always cheers you up." Elena said. "Oh..." Caroline said with a happier voice. "Exactly what I need." she smiled at them.
While Bonnie, Elena and Caroline were watching the movie Tyler was walking back to Caroline's place. He didn't had a plan. All he wanted to do was to kiss her. Just when he came really close to her house, he spotted Matt, angry and confused, walking to Caroline's place. "Matt is still kinda in the picture." he remembered her saying. He didn't want him to be in the picture. It was his and Caroline's picture, no matter how messed up it was, it was their picture. "Hey, Matt!" he yelled out and walked to him. "Hey, Tyler." he said with a less enthusiastic voice. "What are you doing here, man?" Matt asked. "Umm, I'm just on my way to Caroline's. You?" he asked trying to sound careless. "Same." Matt said. "Why?" Tyler asked. Matt was offended. "We were supposed to meet up tonight but she told me that she was with Bonnie but Bonnie was at grill with Jeremy." he said. "So, I wanted to check on her." Tyler nodded. "No need to do that, buddy. She is fine." Tyler said. Matt looked confused, he frowned. "How.. how do you know that she is fine?" Matt asked but before Tyler could answer he continued with anger in his voice. "You know what? If you guys are dating, just come clean about it! It won't be the first time you steal something from me Tyler." Matt said and walked away. "Matt !" Tyler yelled but Matt didn't look back.
After watching the movie, Caroline decided to talk to her friends about Tyler. She told them the whole story. Their kiss, and the way he hesitated and what she told to him when he came to her door.
"Do you have feelings for him, Care?" Elena asked. Caroline shook his head. "I don't know." she sighed and shook her head." But I do know that I am so furious with him right now. I thought he was a friend, turns out he is not ! " she said with her eyes shining with anger. She was burning up with anger.
"You don't know?" Bonnie asked raising one eyebrow. "What about Matt?" Bonnie asked.
"I don't know, I thought we could work, I thought I could make it work."she sighed deeply "Like Stefan does, with Elena." She said glaring at Elena. Elena flashed her a smile. "But, just tonight I had to lie to him. I told him that I am with you so I can't meet up with him." she said to Bonnie. "I don't know, maybe I am over him. I felt like I love him when he kissed me but when Tyler did..." she didn't finish her sentence, she just closed her eyes for a moment, still feeling Tyler's lips on hers. When she opened her eyes she saw girls grinning "What?" she asked smiling too. "You have feelings for Tyler." Elena said giggling. "For Tyler Lockwood." Bonnie said with a grin. "No I don't! The only feeling I have for that puppy is disgust. He was a dick to me tonight."Caroline said. "He is a dick." Bonnie said. "He always was." Bonnie contiuned. Caroline frowned. "Not to me." she said feeling angry. Elena sighed a little and smiled at Caroline. "You are confused, Caroline. No matter what you say, you kissed him back. Things don't change over a night. But, I think you should sail solo for a while." she said. "Agreed." Bonnie said. "You need to figure out some things. And you definitely need to know how Tyler feels about this. I know you talked to him and said Matt is still in the picture but how does he feel after what you said to him tonight?" Elena said.
Tyler was feeling bad after what Matt told him. But still he walked to Caroline's house. He stood when he arrived at her living room's window, curtains were semi-open and he saw Caroline giggling with Elena and Bonnie. A smile appeared on his lips looking at her. She is beautiful. He thought. He knew that Bonnie and Caroline had problems after Caroline turned, he knew that Caroline thought Elena would always choose Bonnie over her and seeing her with her friends happy made him happy and peaceful again. He thought she needed this moment, he didn't want to ruin it for her. He stood there for a little while looking at her and then he left.
In the morning, after eating breakfast Elena and Bonnie left Caroline's home to go to school. Caroline decided not to go, she was still a mess and she didn't want to see Matt or Tyler. "Bye!" she smiled at her friends and closed her door. Just after she closed her door, she heard the bell ringing. She opened the door immediatly, without looking through the little window her door has. "Elena, what did you forget?" she looked up and saw Tyler. She felt her emotions raising up. She tried to close the door but Tyler hold it. "I want to talk." he said with a warm voice. "I have nothing to say to you." Caroline said with ice cold eyes and tried to close the door again but Tyler hold it stronger. "I need you." Tyler yelled and let go of the door. Caroline didn't close the door. She looked at him without losing her cold attitude but she felt the exact opposite of what she was showing to Tyler. She felt her cold, dead heart heating up. "Tell me something." Tyler said. "I needed you, last night, I needed you to save me. I needed you to be my friend."she said with anger . She could she the sadness in Tyler's deep black eyes. That black eyes were inviting her, sucking her in. But she kept hearing Damon's voice. "Don't be his friend." and Elena's voice "You should sail solo for a while." She kept her strength "You know what? I'm better on my own." she said. "Now, do me a favor and get the hell out of my life." she snarled and slammed the door.
"If you believe it's in my soul,
I'd say all the words that I know,
Just to see if it would show,
That I'm trying to let you know,
That I'm better off on my own."
