Aunt Jenna didn't let me go to school, even if I wanted to. She even stayed home with me and made me soup. The
doorbell rang and I heard Jenna get the door and let who-ever-it-was in. "She's up in her room." I heard her say; I
looked over my covers and through my doorway to find Stefan coming up the stairs. I smiled and sat up, "Hi." I said
and patted the empty spot on my bed. Stefan sat beside me and said: "Hey. How are you holding up?" I let out a
breath, "I'm bored but I know that's not what you mean, so I'm feeling better." He smiled "But my head still looks
messed up, doesn't it?" Stefan put his hand to my forehead and lightly touched his finger to my cut. "No," he said, "it
actually doesn't look that bad anymore." I laughed but stopped when I saw how Stefan was staring at my forehead
and then something red appeared under his eyes. "Stefan! Your eyes!" I said as he turned and walked to my window.
"What are you talking about? I-I-I just had something in my eyes." He said and put his hands to his face. I got up and
started to walk towards Stefan when he said "Stop! Stay where you are. I'm fine!" I ignored him and grabbed his
shoulders to turn him around. When he was facing me, with his hands still over his face, I gently reached my hand up
to his and wrapped my fingers around it. I did the same with the other hand then slowly pulled his hands away from
his face. "See, I told you I was fine." said Stefan. I still had a grip on his hands when I walked back to my bed, pulling
him with me. For the rest of the day we just talked and when my brother came home, Matt was with him. They came up
to my room and Matt gave me my homework and fell on my bed. "Hard day?" I asked Matt, he just moaned and I
continued "Lots of homework?" he moaned again. "You know I'm not good at your moaning charades game. Tell me
what's wrong!" Matt lifted his head and his eyes darted to Stefan then back to mine, "Oh, come on! You can tell me
even if Stefan's here. He's not going to tell." "Tell who?" said a voice from my bathroom, it was Jeremy; he popped his
head out the door with his toothbrush in his mouth. "I don't know yet. Matt won't tell me! I mean us." I said and
looked at Stefan who was actually paying attention; he smiled at me and said to Matt, "spit it out. I won't even know
what you're talking about….Probably" Matt threw his face into my blankets for a minute. When he finally came back up,
he said "Bonnie was all over me today. It was weird, she always had her hands on me and if not her hands, we were
always touching skin to skin! I think she's just jealous of Care and Ty." Then he put his face back in my blankets. I put
my hand on his head and said in a serious manner: "I think that…Bon's got a thing for you!" I laughed and heard
Stefan laugh too. Then my brother said the stupidest thing ever "Holy crap, man! Lucky fucking sucker! She is totally
hot and I would totally fuck her, if I were you! Damn!" we all looked at him, "What?" he said. "Jer! We are talking about
Bonnie here. And if she heard you say that, she would kick your sorry ass. And you know it." I said and he turned and
went back into the bathroom. "Don't worry bout him, Matt. I can talk to Bon if you want me to? I know she'll spill if she
likes you." I said. Matt shrugged and slid beside me, making me sit closer to Stefan, and he put his arm around me, so I
leaned against his shoulder. "You have a very bonny shoulder, Matt" I said and we laughed. Stefan got up and walked
to the end of my bed, "I should probably go now." He said, and I frowned, "I'll be back tomorrow okay?" I smiled and
nodded then he left.
