Chapter 3
Elena walked towards the school. Even though she had applied lots of makeup to
cover up her swollen eyes from crying, she hoped that others wouldn't notice.
"Elena!" Bonnie cried, running up to Elena from behind. "I've been calling you all
day yesterday! Where have you been?"
Elena brushed some hair away from her face. "I'm sorry, Bonnie," Elena started,
sighing, remembering last night's events. "I was with Damon at the Salvatore House." It
wasn't a complete lie, but Elena still felt uncomfortable saying this to her friend. "So
what did you need to tell me?" She asked.
"Stefan was with you guys too right? Didn't he tell you?" Bonnie, asked
surprised.
Elena looked away from her friend, swallowing the lump in her throat. She took a
deep breath and said, "No Bonnie, he didn't."
"Oh, well, Jeremy called and said he was coming back to Mystic Falls," Bonnie said.
"What?" Elena spun around to look at Bonnie. "How could you let him, Bonnie?"
"Elena," Bonnie said coldly. "It wasn't on his own will that he left. I think he has
at least the right to return."
"You know that I did it to keep him safe," Elena cried. "Klaus¾"
"This isn't about Klaus, Elena," Bonnie said. "Jeremy should have a say on what
to do about his life." With that, she walked away.
Elena cried, "Bonnie!" But she was already gone. Hearing a beep, Elena pulled
out her phone.
