Chapter 2: Dinner Date.
Elena and Stefan sat in the brown leather booth at the Mystic Grill. They were on some sort of a 'date', well as much as a date could be when Stefan's brother Damon, who was clearly in love with Elena sat only 10 feet away at the bar, drinking his troubles away.
"What can I get you?" Matt, Elena's friend asked. He was a waiter at the Mystic Grill.
"Uh I'll have the chicken salad please." Stefan said handing over the menu.
"I'll have a beef burger meal." Elena said as she sipped her strawberry soda.
"I'm really glad we're doing this, Elena." Stefan murmured quietly after Matt had left with their orders. He reached for her hand but she looked away towards the door.
"Elena?" Stefan asked trying to grab Elena's attention.
"Oh sorry but looked who just walked through the door. I don't recognise them." Elena said confused.
"You don't have too know everyone in the town Elena." He laughed.
"Yeah. Should I go say hi?" Elena asked.
"Just leave it Elena." Stefan said, growing slightly frustrated that Elena's attention was somewhere else.
"Okay, it looks like there heading over to Damon." She said. Elena had dropped the thought of going up to speak to the strangers.
"Yeah, poor them. They'll probably become his next meal." Stefan said casually. Elena cringed inside at the reminder that her boyfriend and his brother were vampires. It's not like she has a problem with it, she loves Stefan and Damon's her friend but even though Stefan is a "vegetarian" in sorts, only drinking animal blood. Damon is full vampire, and she doesn't like when anyone brings the fact that he drains people of their own blood.
"Yeah poor them." Elena whispered, praying silently that Damon won't hurt them.
