"Ma! Where are those boxers of mine you washed?" Screamed Stefan to his mother who was standing in the kitchen making breakfast before his dear little son was off to Barcelona.
"I think I put them on your bed Stefan!" She yelled right back.
It was now 7:40am and Stefan was barely awake and packing for his two week stay in Barcelona. He was excited about it because he got to witness the beauty of Spain, and of Elena. He was excited about spending more time with her, even though it would have to be strictly student teacher to student relationship. But that was only for the first week while they attended all mandatory tours, after that they had the next week all to themselves to explore the beautiful city. They had a curfew of 2am seeing how most of them are 18 and they would like to party. Ric had negotiated these rules with the school seeing how he wanted his students to enjoy themselves and not have to worry about time restrictions.
Stefan walked around his mess of a room before he finally found the boxers his mother had washed for him. Right when he was about to place them in the suitcase his phone buzzed. It was a text from Elena, and of course he broke out into a smile upon seeing "babe" flash across the screen with little heart emojis beside her name.
"Are you up yet sleepyhead?"
"Awake as ever, beautiful. Are you ready to go?" he responded before he set his phone down to put the remaining clothes in his suitcase.
Outside, Nik finally got out of the shower before he reluctantly walked to the kitchen when he smelled the eggs, bacon, and hash browns that Sofia had been cooking.
"Good morning mama Salvatore" Nik teased as he rubbed her arm softly.
"Morning, son. Why don't you sit down, I'll have your plate ready in a few. Mind calling that one from inside?" Sofia said as she was placing the bacon on his plate.
"STEFAAN" Nik shouted before he graciously took the plate Sofia was handing him.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm coming" said Stefan as he walked into the Kitchen and sat down at the island on a bar stool.
"Are you all ready to go?" Sofia asked
"Yup, just need to pick something up at 8:30 before we go to the airport!" Stefan informed her.
"And what are you picking up?" Sofia asked
"Just a little something for the 12th" Stefan responded with a smile.

Elena was loading up the trunk of Caroline's car with their stuff when Bonnie came by with her own suitcases.
"I don't think we have enough things" Bonnie teased.
"Oh please, you can never have enough things" Caroline laughed.
"So, Elena…" Bonnie said a bit warily.
"Mhm Bon?" Elena said looking up from her phone to look at Bonnie.
"Are you going to be sharing a room with us?" She asked with a little smirk.
"I sorta have to, you know" Elena scoffed.
"It'll SAY that you're in our room, but you don't HAVE to be there… if you know what I'm saying" Bonnie said with a hint of humor in her tone.
"Oh come on Bonnie, she isn't a knuckle head. She knows what you're saying" Caroline said as she closed the trunk.
She quickly turned to Elena with excitement before she burst out "So are you gonna be sharing a bed with Stefan?!"
Elena laughed and then blushed before she put her head down and looked at her shoes. Yes, Elena wasn't a virgin, but she wasn't exactly open about her sex life like Caroline was.
"I don't know, we'll see what happens! I wouldn't mind sharing a bed with that one." Elena winked before she walked away to get into the driver's side of the car.

They had been in the air for about two hours when Stefan got up from his seat with his headphones blasting music, blocking out the outside world. He got to the washroom and began humming when he opened the door to find that it was in use. So he stood there waiting, eventually he took his headphones out and heard a loud thump on the door followed by a moan.
He didn't have to think twice about what was going on in there, so he walked around to the other side to use the other vacant one. As he was walking to the bathroom and hand stuck out from the seats and grabbed his hand pulling him down onto a seat.
Stefan quickly regained his composure when we saw a bubbly Elena smiling at his with her pearly white teeth.
"Hi babe" she got out before she took the blanket by her feet and snuggled herself in it inviting him in.
Stefan just laughed as he leaned forward to lace their hands as he brought his other hand to her face to brush a strand out of her face.
"Hey beautiful" he got out before Elena pulled him down on top of her so they were lying down on the seats.
"Babe, what if someone sees-" Stefan was saying before he was cut off by Elena's lips. Stefan let his eyes slip close as he let himself enjoy the kiss. He could taste Elena's signature passion fruit lip balm on her lips that he had grown accustomed to, and he could smell her vanilla shampoo and her light perfume that she always wore. She was the epitome of perfection to him.
Elena ended the kiss after a quick make out session and pulled back when she opened her eyes to see him staring right back into her brown doe eyes.
"Wait, is that my gum you're chewing?" Stefan laughed
"Maybe…you should keep your tongue in your mouth if you want to keep your gum" Elena teased.
"Yeah, yeah. Anyways, someone could see us Elena" he said attempting to sit up and get off of Elena.
"No, no one will see us. Trust me, Ric already knows because my mom can't keep her mouth shut to Aunt Jenna who in turn can't keep her mouth shut to her fiancé. Plus everyone else is at the front of the plane; section A. We are at the back, section G" Elena explained pulling Stefan back down to her.
"Ric knows?" Stefan asked a bit worried.
"Yeah he knows, and you have nothing to worry about" she said as he ran her fingers over his brown trying to smooth out those worry lines. "Also, something else I wanted to talk to you about. Caroline and Bonnie asked me if I was going to share a room with them or with you" Elena said blushing.
"My my Gilbert, are you blushing? And as for the rooms…You can share with whomever you please." Stefan said smiling as he leaned down to place a kiss on her cheek.
Elena pondered for a second, she would not mind falling asleep with Stefan b her side for two weeks, and to wake up with him too.
"I wouldn't mind waking up to you every morning for the next two weeks" Elena said as she got up to switch positions so Stefan was laying down on the seat while she lay on his chest
"You can sneak into my room after Ric goes around and checks the rooms at midnight" Stefan suggested as he made room for Elena and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her closer to his body.
"Sounds like a good idea" Elena said getting herself comfy on his chest as she was rubbing circles on his chest.
Stefan just smiled and kissed her head before a thought popped up into his head. He had no idea whether or not Elena was a virgin. That would make a big difference in their relationship in terms of physicality. She was really comfortable with getting a little heated, maybe that's an indicator that she isn't? Oh well, that was something they would get to when they decided to take that step. He would never pressure Elena into anything she did not want to do.
"Lena?"
"Mhm?" Elena responded.
"I'm glad we're spending these two weeks together" Stefan said with earnest compassion.
Elena turned her head and placed a kiss on his chest in agreement.
"Me too babe"

When Caroline, Elena, and Bonnie walked into their room they put their luggage aside and all collapsed on the bed.
"Please tell me a nap is in order" Bonnie mumbled as she lay with her head on Elena's shoulder who was lying on Caroline's ass.
"Yes, because I am not moving" Caroline said sleepily
"Mhm" Elena agreed as she let her eyes slip close.

Ric and Stefan were walking to the front desk to let them know the total number of students, and all that adult-y information that is necessary for the hotel to know, when Ric suddenly slowed down and turned around to Stefan.
"I'll be sharing a room with you. Just to let you know" Ric said as he smirked and walked away.
Stefan felt like his life had been shat on. He would never be able to have Elena sneak in with Ric in the room. And he would not even dare try. There had to be something he could do to get Ric out of that room with him for the next two weeks. There is no way that Ric was sharing a room with him.
Stefan quickly collected all this thoughts and jogged up to touch Ric's shoulder.
"Alaric, listen, I'm not a 17 year old, I can have my own room" Stefan said with hope in his eyes.
Alaric stopped and genuinely pondered for a bit before he spoke, "Na" he said before he walked to the front lobbyist.
"Ric, buddy, come on. Am I really that unreliable? I mean I am 20 years old and I can even pay for my own room if you want." Stefan suggested trying to get a room for himself.
"Stefan" Ric said as he took out his wallet and turned around to face him. "Fine, whatever. Do whatever you want. Just, keep it PG please or I will seriously break something of yours."
Stefan broke out into a smile, he finally got his room. He was happy, but he had to pay for his own room, and that was a good $250 a night for this hotel. It's okay, he could use the debit card his parents gave him when he was 18. He hadn't touched a single penny on it, and it sat in his wallet containing a good $9,500.
"Yeah ok whatever you say Ric" Stefan said as he pushed him out of the way to get his own room in the hotel, demanding it be on floor 14 where Elena was.

Back in Mystic Falls Damon was lounging on the couch when he heard a knock on his door. He had no clue who it would be since he was meeting Katherine at 6pm for a date.
He walked over to the door and opened it revealing a smiling Katherine behind it.
"Hi babe!" she squealed as she wrapped her arms around her torso which is fully covered by her leather jacket. She leaned forward to leave a peck on his lips before she walked in to Damon's apartment.
"Hey" he said following her right into the living room where she sat down across from him. She still hadn't let go of her torso and there was definitely something she was gripping on to, there was a slight bulge in her leather jacket.
"What do you have there?" Damon asked raising his eyebrows.
"Well, you know how much I love your puppy face, and how I think it is completely adorable. And you know how much I LOVE puppies in general, so…" she trailed off before she unzipped her leather jacket and out jumped the tiniest little puppy Damon had ever seen.
Damon nearly jumped when he saw this puppy jumping out of Katherine's arms all of a sudden.
"Kat, please don't tell me you got me a dog" Damon said bending down to pick up the puppy as he took his finger and pet him behind his small little ear.
"I didn't get YOU a dog silly, I got US a dog" Katherine simply responded with a smile.
Damon put down the puppy and walked over to Katherine and wrapped his arm around her when he sat down pulling her closer to him.
Damon sighed, leaned over and placed a soft kiss on her lips that soon turned into hunger and passion. Katherine half sighed into Damon's mouth before she grabbed Damon's hand and intertwined their fingers to let him know that she still wants this to be affectionate and sweet.
Slowly, Damon pulled away to look into Katherine's eyes before he leaned forward again and placed a kiss on her forehead, on her temple and then lastly on her cheek before he leaned up to whisper in her ear.
"I love our new dog" Damon sighed but before he pulled away he placed a small kiss on her neck before whispering in her ear again.
"And I love you" He said as he pulled back to see Katherine's face in awe and tears welling up.
Katherine's tears threatened to spill when she cupped Damon's cheek and gave him a last kiss before whispering, "I love you too, Damon" When all of a sudden their new little puppy jumped in their lap.
"What are we naming him?" Katherine asked.
"Whatever you want" Damon said petting the dog again.
"I like bubbles"
"Bubbles?" Damon asked.
"Bubbles" Katherine confirmed looking at him.
"Okay, Bubbles it is" Damon said taking her hand and leaving a kiss on it.

Stefan was lying on the pool chairs trying to soak up the sun at the outdoor pool of the hotel when he glanced over and saw Elena walk in with Caroline and Bonnie by her side.
Stefan had never seen Elena in anything less than her short shorts and a tank top and he had to admit, she had a sexy body. It took everything out of Stefan not to get up right there and walk over to Elena and just kiss her.
Stefan's eyes followed her until she reached the edge of the pool before she dipped her feet in and raised her head to finally notice Stefan sitting across the width of the pool.
Elena jumped in swam over to the other edge towards Stefan to come to the surface to beckon him with her one index finger.
"Come in" she simply said.
Stefan dropped everything he had in his hands and took off his shirt and sunglasses before he dipped himself in the pool finally dunking his head. He swam over to Elena under the water and grabbed her legs throwing her under the surface.
Stefan quickly adjusted himself so she was aligned to his face under the water. Elena finally opened her eyes under water to see Stefan staring back at her with his green eyes and waving hair from underneath the water.
Stefan swam forward a bit and grabbed her by the waist and pulled her in to place a deep kiss on her lips underneath the water.
Before they could run out of breath they both resurfaced gasping for air.
Stefan swam a circle around her before getting up behind her and pulling her back against his wet chest, while still standing in the pool, to whisper in her ear.
"Do you have any idea how hot you look in this bathing suit?" He said as he placed a wet kiss upon her already wet skin.
"Stefan, Ric could see us" Elena chided him attempting to pull away.
Stefan just pulled her back against him before placing a kiss on her shoulder.
"Not when Ric's room is on the 13th floor and facing the other side of the hotel. Oh and did I forget to tell you he is taking a nap? No Ric for a couple of hours babe" he teased.
Elena turned around to swing her arms around his neck.
"So… what are we gonna do for a couple of hours then?" She asked with a beaming smile.
