Hey, how much is the hatred right now?
Sorry it took so long it always takes me long.
Anyway on with the show btw I don't own Vampire Diaries.
Chapter 4: You're my best friend… maybe you're more.
It has been a few weeks since the morning Viola woke up in Stefan's arms neither of them remembering what happened which was weird because she did not drink that much that night. It was like she was under some spell her body just started moving, her mind let go. It seems her mind let go of a lot of things including her memories.
Moving as carefully as she could she stood up and grabbed her clothes which is just thrown everywhere looked at him and out of fear for how he would react casted a spell over him so he could forget what happened between them.
"Vi?" Freya asked knocking on her door. "Viola are you awake?" she opened the door and walked into Viola's room. "You are sending crazy energy through the house." she went to sit on her sister's bed.
"What crazy energy?" Viola asked. She wasn't even aware that she was using her powers.
"I mean a storm in the kitchen and desert like heat in the living room, crazy energy." she looked at her sister with a frown on her face, "seriously what's up?"
"Promise not to tell anyone?" she watched as Freya nodded her head. She told her everything that happened while she was on the cruise. "Then I was so freaked out at what happened that I erased the night from his mind as well as the friendship that developed while we were on the cruise."
"Why would you erase everything?" Freya asked with a frown on her face. "Did you really have to get rid of the friendship you guys shared? You could have just erased the night, not like you needed to anyway since neither of you remembered what happened."
"But that's just it, I don't know if he remembered the previous night because I didn't bother to wait long enough to find out."
"Seriously, my beautiful sister, I feel like you shoild have spoken to him before you made him forget you. His reaction could have been totally different from what you expected." Freya said running her hand through Viola's hair.
Viola thought about tjis for a second. "Or it could have been exactly what I suspected, meaning he is and will always be in love with Elena." Freya sighed at her sister's stubbornness but before she could say anything Viola jumped up. "Let's go eat. I am already late might as well spent the morning with my family."
"We have to tell her." The two sisters heard Wendy day as they walked down stairs.
"Not until we are absolutely certain."
"Joanna, your daughter deserves to know." Wendy replied.
"You have three daughters but I get the feeling you're talking about me." Viola said looking at her mom and aunt. "If it is about me, I would like to know."
Joanna and Wendy looked at each other.
"Mom, please." she said as she sat down by the kitchen table.
"Fine, but I need time to prepare this." Joanna said. "Eat breakfast, go to your classes and go to work. We will talk about this as a family so we have to wait for Ingrid."
Viola nodded knowing her mother had decided. She dished herself a plate had breakfast, a very late breakfast, and started her day.
*Mystic Falls*
Stefan and Caroline were down at the Grill enjoying a meal and some time away from the love fest known as Damon and Elena. Things have been quiet, they weren't attacked on a daily basis anymore so they enjoyed the change of pace.
"You've been off since we returned from the cruise, what's up?" Caroline asked as she took a bite from her salad.
"I don't know I feel like I am missing something. Like I left something behind or something left me behind."
"Maybe you did. Is it something valuable?"
"I don't know, but something is definitely missing." he took a sip of his beer. "I just wish I knew what it was."
"Well you can't always figure everything out. And maybe you're troubled because your ex girlfriend is now living in your house and sharing a bed with your brother."
"I don't know. Maybe we should just finish here. Tyler is waiting for you and I need to go face the birds."
"Good luck with that." Caroline said as she got up. "I am going to my drama free life and just enjoying my boyfriend."
"Tell Tyler I said hi."
"Will do."
Stefan hated every inch he travelled because that got him an inch closet to home and closer to the love birds. He felt like he needed to get put of town or at least he needed some sort of distraction from the world around him. He doesn't really know how he feels about Elena. He is trying to convince himself that he doesn't love her but he feels like he is lying to himself every time he says those words. He honestly needs to figure out his feelings.
He enters the house and it is relatively quiet probably Bonnie is there as well. The sickeningly lovey-dovey noises are not prominent and he wishes Bonnie would come over everyday.
"You got a package, Baby Brother." Damon says handing the box over to Stefan.
Stefan took it and walked up to his room.
"Well aren't you little miss Sunshine." Damon said sarcastically.
"Let him go Damon he needs time to get over me and adjust to us dating." Elena said from her spot on the couch.
Stefan decided to ignore it, went up to his room and opened the box.
Inside the box is a DVD and a photo album. Written on the photo album is "CONGRATULATIONS" in big, bold letter.
He was so confused. He doesn't remember anything he's done that warrants a "congratulations" he decides to take a look anyway. He is shocked to his core when he sees the first picture. Well this is new. Before he knew what he was doing he grabbed his car keyes walked straight to his car and drove. He called Caroline and told her to meet him at the train station. He will explain everything when she gets there.
*Viola's workplace*
Viola had the weirdest day. She spent most of it in the library trying to find anything she could about witches. She hated that she couldn't figure out what's going on with her. Some random lady joined her at her table and told her "you are going to need me" left a business card with no number on it and walked away. Next she went to the grill and pub where she worked as a waitress. She normally controlled herself really well but she basically gave one of the customers, who hit on her a little too much, a nosebleed just thinking about it. A customer who was way too rude to her suddenly lost his voice and another customer started crying uncontrollably when he accused his girlfriend of being a drama queen.
Freya, who works behind the bar, saw this and tried to cancel out her sister's magic but that didn't work and towards the end she could see her sister's aura shining dully like the magic is draining from her. Down to the point where Viola fainted, causes of which unknown.
When they finally arrived home, they left early. Ingrid, Wendy and Joanna were already seated by the kitchen table. Two chairs waiting for Viola and Freya.
"Remember how I told you that you guys always die by the time you reach this age?" Joanna started.
"Not something to look forward to." Freya committed.
"Yes, but why are you bringing this up? Did you find a way to stop it from happening in this life?" Ingrid asked, a little hopeful.
"I wish." Wendy replied.
"If only sweetheart." Joanna answered. "There is something I didn't tell you." she takes a breath before she continues. "It is only true for Ingrid and Freya. You don't die the same way Viola."
"What? How do I die?"
"You bring it on yourself sweetheart." Joanna says looking at Viola. Viola just looked at her waiting for the rest.
"How does she bring it on herself?" Ingrid asked looked at her mother then at her youngest sister.
"Every time you think you can bring them back and you sacrifice yourself in order to accomplish it." Joanna says.
"You cast a spell to bring them back and because you are a different kind of witch and not trained in the way you should be it always backfires." Wendy continues.
"After you cast the spell weird things would happen. Your magic would act up. Like it is now." Joanna continues.
"What do you mean when you say I am not trained in the way I should be?" Viola asked.
"You are a different kind of witch. Your powers are different and that means you need a different tutor but we could never find the right tutor." Wendy answered her.
"So does my magic 'acting up' mean that I don't have a lot of time left?" she looked at her mother. "Am I dying?" she asked then looked at her aunt.
"We don't know, but chances are you did something you don't understand and this has a negative effect on your life." Wendy answered her.
"There must be something we could do." Freya said grabbing her baby sister's hand.
"A spell to make whatever is happening progress slower so we can find a way to cancel it." Ingrid says taking Viola's other hand.
"There isa way to slow down what's happening buy until we know what is causing this, we can't fix it." Joanna said. At that moment they heard a knock on the door.
"I'll get it." Wendy said walking to the front door.
Joanna looked at her daughter. "We will find a way. I will not lose you again."
"We can fight this." Freya said. "We will fight this."
"We just have to do some research, figure out a spell and get to the bottom of whatever it is." Ingrid said.
"Vi, there is a very hot supernatural creature waiting for you in the living room." Wendy said as she re entered the kitchen.
Viola got up and walked to the living room.
"Stefan?" a frown forming on her face. "What are you doing here?"
Without saying a word he gave her the album he brought along with him.
She gave him a puzzled look and took the album.
"I want to know what this is." he said.
She opened it. On the centre of the front page stood Stefan and Viola, bright smiles on their faces. With the caption "We got Married".
Excuse all the grammar and spelling mistakes. I wanted to post as soon as I was done. I hope you enjoyed it.
