"I can't believe you threatened me" I grumble at my annyoing sister.
I drag my feet not wanting to be here, as we pass by all the pointless slabs of rock. This place is creepy. Every turn there is just death everywhere. I absolutely hate cemeteries, they make me feel so depressed especially when I'm standing above my parents corpses. Elena bends down placing some flowers below the stone.
I just read over the names, over and over again.
Grayson Gilbert and Miranda Sommers Gilbert.
I sigh as Elena just stands there looking at the headstone.
"Can we leave now?" I say, looking towards the exit longingly.
Theres a bottle at the grill waiting for me.
"Scar can you just pay your respects." Elena groans looking back at me.
"Fine." I say.
I look at the slab of rock reading over the names. I don't even know what I'm supposed to be thinking. I don't belive in God, and I don't belive they can hear me, so what's the point. I roll my eyes crossing my arms over my chest.
"Alight respect has been paid, let's go." I lie to her while putting my hand on her arm.
Suddenly, a crow decides to caw at us, make both of us jump and look at it perched on our parents grave.
The crow's head tilts to the side watching us.
"Well that's creepy." I says lowly, as it watches us with its pure black eyes.
"Hey! Shoo! Go away! Damn crow!" Elena calls out, scarring the crow away by clapping in its face.
It flies away in a scurry, leaving a silhouette of a man watching us in the distance. I look at Elena worriedly, looking back at the still figure slowly disappearing in the fog
"Okay, time to go." I mutter under my breath as I pull Elena to the exit with me.
We hear the crow caw out to us in a call again, making us jump and start to run. I watch as Elena tumbles down a slight hill, slamming her back against a tree. I easily slide down the slanted hill, dirt and stones spraying everywhere as I do so.
"You okay?" I question her, pulling her up by her arm.
"Yeah," She breaths brushing her clothes down. "Stefan?" She mutters making me turn around to be face to face with the same guy from this morning.
"You okay?" He questions Elena in worry, while his eyes flicker towards me.
"Were you following us?" I question him, forgetting about Elena probably injured next to me.
"No, I -uh I just saw you fall." He explains, referring to Elena.
"Oh." Elena breathe coming to stand beside me.
"Right, so you just happen to be hanging around in a cemetery?" I accuse looking him over again.
"I was just visiting, I have uh- family here." He tells us both, with a sad look on his face.
"Oh, wow.I'm sorry, it's the fog it's making me feel funny, and then there was this bird and it was like the Hitchcock for a moment, that is the bird movie right? the Hitchcock-"
"Elena your rambling." I tease in a sing song way watch Stefan's smile grow quickly on his face,
"Right, sorry." Elena apologises to Stefan.
"It's alright, I'm Stefan." He introduces holding his hand out to her.
"Elena." she breaths taking his hand, and gazing into his eyes.
Oh God, I knew she would be all over him, he is definitely her type. He releases her hnad, giving her a quick smile before looking back at me, and looking down. I watch as he stares at my necklace, slightly entranced by it.
"That's a beautiful necklace." He finally says, drawing the attention of Elena too it also.
"Thanks. That's a cool ring." I tell him, smirking, as I look at the big tacky thing on his ring finger.
"It's a family ring, kind of stuck with it." He informs us, while Elena smiles at him, I merely give him a nod.
Family ring...the thing is huge and looks like it belongs in an eighteenth century movie. Not on a teenagers hand.
"It's weird huh?" Stefan questioned me after seeing my obvious reaction to it.
"No, no its just theres rings, and then there's- well there's that." I chuckle looking at it again. "But it kinda matches my necklace. It's got the same blue-like crystal color." I add, holding my necklace between my fingertips.
"So it does." He smiles, but his smile quickly starts to form into a frown as he looks down towards the ground.
I look at Elena quickly, and we share a look wondering what was with the sudden mood change. Did I offend him and his family ring? Beg my pardon, I meant tacky ring.
"Did you hurt yourself?" He finally asks Elena and she frowns looking towards him, then looking down at herself.
"Knowing Elena she probably did she's so clumsy." I announce, which earned me a glare from her.
She walks over to a tree stump pulling her leg up onto it. I cross my arms watching her as she rolls the ends of her trousers up revealing a gash in her leg with blood dripping down it.
"Oh, that's not pretty." I say, wincing, looking back at Stefan only to see he is facing the other way. "Hey, are you okay?" I ask him, my eyebrows pulling together.
"You girls should go, and take care of that." He mutters, still not facing us.
I look back at Elena raising a eyebrow as if to say 'What the hell?'. But when I look back, he is gone, like he just vanished into mid air.
"Did you see him leave?" I ask Elena and she shakes her head.
The guy must be some kind of ninja, I think looking around confused, as does Elena.
"Well that was weird." Elena mutters, her eyebrows drawing together. "Why did he just disappear like that?" She questions, and I roll my eyes, pushing my hands into my jacket pockets.
"Who cares. I'm getting out of here, I'll see you later." I tell her, trying on my foot only to be stopped by Elena putting her hand on my shoulder and pulling me around to face her.
"You're not going to do something stupid are you?" she questions, a eyebrow raised.
"Of course not." I lie with a smile. "See you later sis,"
I left Elena in the cemetery by herself, and instead took my own route towards the grill. Walking inside I look over to see Jeremy in a heated conversation with Vicki and Tyler and Matt talking at a nearby table.
"His name's Stefan Salvatore-" I roll my eyes hearing the incessant whine that is Caroline Forbes.
I don't hate Caroline, but I don't practically like her. She's snobby and thinks she's the best becuase she is head cheerleader. I could dance circles around her if I wanted. Barely anyone on their team can do a simple thigh stand anyway.
"Scar, hey! Did you come with Elena? She's supposed to be meeting us here." Bonnie asks me as she ignores Carlone.
I smile. "No, last I saw she was with Stefan in the cemetary. Watch your back Carlione looks like you've got competition on your hands." I tease her, waltzing off towards the bar.
I lean against the wooden countertop, biting my lip as I look into Kevin's eyes. I nudge my head in the direction of the employee only room where they keep all the storage. He smiles slightly, nodding his head as a confirmation to meet him in there.
This is how we have learnt to communicate over the last couple weeks.
I go into the storage room and don't have to wait long until Kevin comes through the door with a big grin on his face.
"Did you bring it?" I ask him, getting straight to the point.
"Uh- yeah. But I can't keep giving you free bottles Scar. I could get fired." He tells her, while producing a bottle of whiskey from behind his back.
Not her favorite but it will do the job.
"Here's fifteen bucks," I shrug handing him some money, and taking the bottle from him.
"So-will you be at the party tomorrow?" He asks me while he takes a step closer so were merely inches away from each other.
"Maybe. There will be free alcohol so why not." I shrug, tilting my head to the side.
I smirk as he leans down pressing his lips onto mine. He pushes his hands into my hair, forcing his lips on mine as he tries to part them. I hold back a laugh as his hands slide down my back to grasp my hips and draw me closer to him.
"Kevin can you- Oh Scar." Viki gasps as she comes into the room.
I pull away, wiping my lips with the back of my hand, and conceal the bottle as best as I can, behind my back.
"Viki." I nod at her with a tight smile. "Thanks Kevin."I muttered, walking past them and out of the grill.
I sigh, going around the back of the grill and sliding down a wall near to the dumpster. Unscrewing the bottle cap, I raise the bottle to my lips, feeling the liquid run soothingly down my throat. When I pull it away, I wince as the burn kicks in making my throat feel like its burning, and my cheeks warm.
I lean my head back up against the wall closing my eyes. I hear a crow call out to me, making me open my eyes to see one perched on the fence opposite me, watching.
"I really hate crows." I grumble taking another drink.
THIRD PERSON POV
Inside the grill Caroline and Bonnie were more or less assessing the new guy, Stefan, while Elena sat and listened. She was about as intrigued about his as she was them. He made her smile, which she hasn't done for real in a long time. He was so mysterious... and she wanted to unlock all of his hidden secrets.
"So, you were born in Mystic Falls?" Caroline asks, while gazing at Stefan, her hands folded under her chin.
"Mhh. And I moved when I was still young." He answers them, looking around at the three pairs of eyes on him.
"Parents?" Bonnie questioned.
"My parents passed away." He said sadly.
Bonnie looked at him with an apologetic expression, while Stefan turned his attention to Elena.
"I'm sorry." Elena says, even though she was aware of there passing. "Any siblings?" she decides to ask.
"Not any that I talk too." He answers her, with a smile that has double meanings behind it. "I uh- live with my uncle." he adds.
Caroline, looks between Elena and Stefan, silently loathing at her friend as she flirts with him.
"So Stefan, if your new then you obviously don't know about the party tomorrow." Caroline says, pulling the attention back to her.
"It's a back to school thing at the falls." Bonnie explains, while Stefan looks at Elena.
"Are you going?" He questions her.
"Of course she is."Bonnie answers for her with a smile.
Elena could see what her friend was trying to do, and she grinned seeing Stefan still staring at her. She tucks her hair behind her ear, feeling her heart pound under his stare. She undoubtedly was already starting to like him, and she was stunned by how quickly her feelings were beginning to grow.
SCAR POV
I mumble incoherently, not even knowing what I am trying to say, as I make my way out from the back of the grill and back towards the entrance.
How do I get home? I wounder.
I can barely even see, the whole road, trees and buildings are swaying. Am I even standing up stright?
I try to walk forward but stumble on my heal and fall to the ground. I groan rolling over onto my back and just stare up at the sky from the sidewalk.
"Scar? Are you okay?" I hear a concerned voice asks, followed by heavy footsteps.
"I'm fine." I slur, seeing a blurry figure that looks like Stefan come into view.
"Are you drunk?" He asks me bending down and lifting me up off the cold floor so I'm sitting up.
"Maybe." I giggle, leaning against him as he wraps his arm around my back.
"I better take you home." He sighs.
He puts his arm under my legs, swiftly picking me up into a bridal position. My head rests against his chest while the sky spins and blurs above me. I can't help just looking up at Stefan's face as he carries me away.
"You're really strong." I giggle, my finger tracing over Stefan's biceps through his t-shirt.
Nice.
Stefan takes in a deep breath, while managing to somehow open the backseat door for me, and gently placing me inside so I'm lying down. I don't recognize the car at all, and the smell of leather makes me feel a little sickly.
My eyes start to close as my body relaxes thanks to the bottle of whiskey I downed. I feel the engine rumble underneath me.
"You okay Scar?" Stefan asks me, looking back at me.
I think I mumbled a yes, before I shut my eyes and feel asleep.
I could feel my body shift and wind whipping against my face but I didn't are. I felt warm and safe and not to mention very lightheaded.
"Goodnight Scarlet." I hear a soft voice whisper.
Then there was nothing.
THIRD PERSON POV
Stefan narrowed his eyes at the newspaper Zack had given him. Two people were attacked by an animal. He knows he certainly didn't do it, and as far as he knew there was no other vampire in town.
After a argument, Zack left defeated, and Stefan walked over to his wooden cupboard. He opened the doors revealing piles upon piles of diaries he has kept over the years. He picks up the book marked '2005' and pulls it out from the stack.
Unraveling the rope around it, he opens it up to look at a picture of a woman identical to Elena. Katherine... Sliding the picture away, there was another picture behind it. A black and white wedding picture, with his families workers all lined up infront of his old family home. He looks towards the front of the group seeing the maid Elizabeth who he once loved.
He was stunned at how much Scarlett looks like Elizabeth and how Elena looks like Kathrine. It was impossible yet, he saw with his own eyes. He held Scarlett in his arms like he once had with Elizabeth. He looked into Elenas dark brown eyes, which shinned much like Katherine's.
How are they real? How are they both here in mystic falls? He wonders to himself, while running a finger over the picture of Kathrine.
He brings out his most recent diary, writing about all the sudden feelings that have been brought back to life today How both Scarlet and Elena make him feel. Scarlet seems to have the same sarcastic wit as Elizabeth had, while Elena... she seems the exact opposite to Katherine.
XD
I am loving writing this at the moment, and I'm loving how Scar's character is building.
So what do you think happened between Elizabeth and Stefan?
