Recap:

We payed for our drinks and left. Me and Stefan went in Stefan's car and went back to the boarding house. I wonder what Stefan will say if I tell him what Bonnie has told me.

Chapter 6

Elena's POV

After Stefan had dropped me off at home, I couldn't stop thinking about what Bonnie has told be. Was Stefan a hunter? And if he was, would he kill me? I was in great danger until I knew who Stefan really is. I had to know him, properly. Ill text him.

'Hi Stefan, its Elena. I was wondering... If maybe you would wanna have dinner tonight? My place. Love Elena.' Send. If he says yes, I will break the news to him then.

Stefan's POV

My phone vibrated in my pocket. I opened the text; it was from Elena. It read:

'Hi Stefan, its Elena. I was wondering... If maybe you would wanna have dinner tonight? My place. Love Elena.'

I thought something was up. When we left The Grill earlier, they both seemed nervous and anxious. Maybe Elena was going to explain why. I replied to her:

'Hey Elena, of course I would love to. Ill be over around 7. See you later. Love, Stefan'

Hopefully, all will be explained.

*Around 7pm*

I pulled onto Elena's driveway, and got out of ny car. There standing at the door was Elena. She looked beautiful. She was wearing her finest dress, a blue satin dress with frills and beads and sequins all over it. She looked amazing. I walked up to the door and Elena said, in her most posh voice "Good evening, Mr Salvatore. Please do come in." How nice. "Yes, I would love to come in, Miss Gilbert." I walked into her house and made my way to the kitchen. "May I say the food smells divine. What might we be having in this fine evening?" I asked, carrying on with the posh accent. " We, Mr Salvatore, are eating grilled steak and vegetables. Ok, I know its not much, but my mother used to cook it when I was younger. My parents were pretty wealthy." I just chuckled. "It sounds great." I replied. We sat down to eat, but I knew that Elena had something on her mind. "Ok Elena. What is you want to talk about? I can tell you have something on your mind." I asked her, after dinner was served. She finished her mouthful and answered me.

"Ok. When Bonnie and I were in the bathroom at The Grill, she was going on about her witchy things, and she said something about when she first met you. When she first meets a person, and she shakes their hand or hugs them, she can see that persons' past. But when she shook your hand for the first time, she saw your past, but from 1864. She saw your ancestors. That was the year that I was... Turned."

I sat there, looking confused and said:

"Is that it?"

"No its not. When she saw your ancestors, she saw that your great great great, I don't know how many greats there are, grandfather was a highly trained vampire hunter. This gene would have been passed-"

"Passed down in the genes. Why is that bad?"

"Because, if it was passed down in the genes, it means that either you or Damon or both of you got the gene. And Damon is a vampire. Look Stefan, I'm worried."

"Worried about what?" I asked, concerned.

"About you becoming like your ancestors. A vampire hunter."

I sat there, A bit confused about what she was saying. She thought I could be a vampire hunter? I couldn't hurt a fly let alone kill vampires. After a while of silence, I said:

"So you think, I could be a vampire hunter? Why would that be bad? I would have killed Damon. He's always a dick."

"But I'm a vampire too! If you are a vampire hunter, you could kill me!" She shouted.

She sat back in her seat, taken aback by what she had just said and how loudly she shouted at me. After a while, she said:

"I'm sorry. I didn't meant to shout at you like that. Shall we just get some take-out? Ill pay. Our dinner probably didn't taste too good and its gone cold anyway." I nodded in response.

She ordered our food, and we both sat in the living room. Could I be a hunter? And if I was, why hadn't I discovered it yet? Also, If I was a hunter, would I kill Elena and Damon? My own brother and the one I love. I couldn't do that... After a while of silence, I said "So is there any way I can choose whether I am a hunter or not? And is there anyway to stop it if I am one? Also, how do I know if I am?" So many questions fired out of my mouth. I was just so confused, and I needed answers. "I don't know. You need to ask Bonnie." She replied quietly. She seemed regretful for even telling me.

"Hey, don't worry. I suppose its better you did tell me, otherwise I could have... Well I could have grown up and became a hunter, without knowing why." I said, trying to reassure her. But it didn't seem to be working. "Ok. I'm gonna ring Bonnie. Get her to come over here. Maybe we can work this out." And with that I rang Bonnie.

Bonnie's POV

I was sitting at home, looking at a set or random grimious and my phone buzzed. It was Stefan. I wonder what he wanted.

"Hello?" I said

"Hey Bonnie its Stefan. I need your help."

"What now?" I was slightly exasperated with people keep asking for my help.

"Its about what you told Elena earlier at The Grill."

"She told you?" I sounded astonished.

"Yeah. Can you come over to Elena's? We need your help."

"Yeah sure. Ill be over soon."

"Ok. Thanks Bonnie."

"Its ok. Bye."

I picked up my things, and a few grimoirs and got in my car and drove to Elena's. On my way to Elena's, I was very sleepy. I was coming just up to Wickery Bridge, which was only about 500 yards from Elena's house. A bird flew into my window, shared the life out of me. As I jumped, I steered the car off Wickery Bridge. "AAAHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed at the top of my voice. I hope someone heard. And before I knew it, I had driven off the bridge, into the river.

Elena's POV

I was sitting at home with Stefan, waiting for Bonnie to turn up. When suddenly, I jumped. I heard a scream, and it came from towards Wickery Bridge. I gasped, and Stefan asked "Elena, what's wrong?"

"Something just happened on Wickery Bridge." I ran off at vampire speed, to find a car in the river. I dived into the water, to find Bonnie in the car unconscious. I dragged her up to the surface and when I had got out of the water I realized she wasn't breathing.

"Bonnie! Bonnie?! Answer me!" I screamed at her. I started to resuscitate her, and she awoke and gasped for air. I was relieved, but she wasn't ok yet.

"Bonnie? Bonnie, what happened? We need to get an ambulance. I heard Stefan coming up from behind me.

"Stefan, call an ambulance please." I asked.

"Sure."

Then Bonnie spoke.

"A blackbird flew into my window, I screamed and drove off the bridge."

"A blackbird?" I asked.

"Yeah. My... My head hurts."

I realized she had cut her head open.

"Bonnie, stay there. Don't move. Help is on its way."

When the ambulance turned up, she had her head stitched up and she was cleaned up, and she was taken to her house. Looks like our plan was screwed. But I was still puzzled by what the blackbird meant. I mean, blackbird only come out during the day. And then it hit me.

"What's wrong, Elena?" Stefan asked, seeing the look of confusion on my face.

"He's back."
