Adelaide and Elan were walking around until it was time for the game when someone spoke from behind them. They turned at the same time, and saw it was Stefan was wearing the football uniform.
"Ooh, look at you." You look hot in your jersey." Elena told Stefan.
Adelaide faked gagged at her sister while Stefan looked at Elena up and down before he questioned." What happened? No more cheerleading?"
Adelaide pointed her finger at her sister." She quit.
"I´m a quitter."
"No, hey, you´re not a quitter." Stefan said as he grabbed Elena´s hand. Stefan looked towards Adelaide as he spoke." You both suffered a great loss. You´re not the same person." Stefan said as he looked back to Elena." You should be looking ahead. You should be starting over, okay."
Once Elena nodded her head with a smile, Stefan pulled out a small boks from his pocked, and Adelaide could see he looked nervous.
Adelaide clabbed her hands together as she looked between her sister and Stefan."So, I´m going to leave." Adelaide said as she began to walk.
"Where´re you going?" Elena questioned.
"I love you and all, but this."She said waving her hand between the two of them." I´m out." She said before she turned to Stefan and winked at him." Later." She said before walking to back the way the came.
As the sun disappeared all of the students of Mystic falls high school croweded together in excitement for the first game of the year. The fire had been lit and Tanner called out" Quiet down, quiet down. Quiet down a little bit, okay!" Everyone was loud and cheering as he kept telling them to wait. Once everyone had calmed down enough he spoke." Wait. Now let´s be honest. In the past, we used to let the other teams come into our town and roll right over us." The cheerleaders led everyone into a booing while he said." But that is a bout to chance. We´ve have got some great new talent tonight on the offensive line, and I´m going to tell you right now, it´s been a long time since i have seen a kid like this with hands like these. Let´s give it up for Stefan Salvatore!"
"Go stefan go! Go Stefan go!" Adelaide yelled along side the crowd, but somehow over the madness, Adelaide heard the sound of glass breaking. She moved towards the sound. It was Tyler and Jeremy in an all out fight, rolling around in the grass trying to beat the hell out of each other.
"Jeremy, Tyler! Enough!" Adelaide yelled.
But neither boys would stop fighting each other. Adelaide tried to run at the fight, but Stefan grabbed her arm before she could get to close and pulled her out of harm´s way.
"I will help, stay here okay." Stefan told her as he turned and ran towards the two boys. Stefan grabbed Tyler´s arm before he could slam his fist into Jeremy´s bloody face." Hey, he´s down! Enough!" Stefan yelled at Tyler before catching his fist. Tyler punched Stefan stomach. Tyler looked shocked when Stefan didn´t even flinch.
Adelaide went to check on Jeremy, but when she turned, she saw Jeremy grab a piece of glass from a broken bottle." Jeremy no!" Adelaide yelled out, but Jeremy ignored her and swing the bottle at Tyler, Stefan threw Tyler to the ground and Jeremy sliced Stefan´s hand. Matt tackled Tyler as Jeremy stood there staring shocked at what he had done.
Adelaide quickly walked towards Jeremy." Put your head up, you´re bleeding." Adelaide said as she tilted Jeremy´s head up towards the sky.
"I´m fine!" Jeremy snapped at her.
"You smell fine." Adelaide snapped back.
"Leave me alone!" He growled before stomping away from Adelaide. Jeremy had never yelled at Adelaide before. So she didn´t take it to heart.
Elena quickly came over to Adelaide." Are you okay? And Jeremy?"
Adelaide sighed as she looked towards Tyler and saw he was staring back at her in anger." I´m fine." She said as she turned back to Elena." Jeremy will be fine. Just leave him alone for a while." Adelaide eyes widened as she remembered. You should check on Stefan. I saw the glass cut his hand."
Elena nodded her head, Adelaide touch her shoulder." I´m going to see if i can find Matt." Adelaide told her before she made her way to the crowd of people.
"Yeah, okay. I will see you at home." Elena said before she made her way towards Stefan.
Adelaide was leaving when she saw Tyler was walking towards the boys locker rooms and she hurried towards him." You come at Jeremy again and i will end you!"
"He started it!" Tyler said defending himself.
Adelaide couldn´t find Matt anywhere and she was starting to feel a little cold so she stared to walk towards the parking lot, she had almost reach her sisters car when she heard footsteps behind her, and she turned to tell whoever it was to back off because she was so not in the mood right now, but no one was there. She shook her head before she turned back around and walked towards the car and opened the passenger side door and grabbed her jacked before closing the door. She slipped the jacked on, but when she turned back around she jumped in fright. Damon was standing in front of her with a smirk on his face.
Adelaide shuckled." You scared me." She told him before she tilted her head to the side as she questioned." What´re you doing here?"
"I´m hiding from Caroline." Damon whispered.
"Why is that?" Adelaide whispered back.
"I need a break." Damon explained." She talked more then i can listen.
Adelaide chuckled." You know, that should be a sign.
"Well, she´s awfully young."
"She´s not much younger then you."
Damon chuckled." I don´t see it going anywhere in the bigger picture. I think she´s driving me crazy."
Adelaide raised her eyebrow at him." I would be careful if i was you. I might be mad at her right now, but she´s been my friend since i could walk."
"Duly noted." Damon said."I´m sorry if i make you uncomfortable. That´s not my intention."
Adelaide rolled her eyes." Yes it is."
Damon smiled and nodded his head." You´re right. I do have other intention, but so do you." Damon said as he pointed his finger at her.
"Oh, really? And what´re those intentions?"
"Hm...hmm." Damon mumbled." I see em. You want me." Damon told her.
Adelaide raised her eyebrow at him." Excuse me?"
"I get you. You find yourself drawn to me. You think about me even when you don´t want to think about me. I bet you dream about me." Damon said as he stared directly into Adelaide eyes." And right now...You want to kiss me."
Adelaide stared into Damon´s eyes and for some reason, she felt a pull to listen to him. But when Damon moves closer to her lips, she finally snapped out of it and slapped Damon across the face." I would never kiss you!" Adelaide growled out as she glared at Damon." You´re dating Caroline and i see what you´re trying to do." Adelaide said as she pointed her finger at him." Leave Stefan and Elena alone and don´t put me in the middel of it. Because if you hurt my sister i will come for you."
Damon smirked." Is that a threat?"
Adelaide shook her head." No. It´s a promise.
"What´s going on here?"
Adelaide looked over Damon´s shoulder and saw Matt making his way towards them. "It´s nothing Matt." Damon was just leaving." Adelaide said as she looked back towards Damon.
Damon smirked." I see how it is." He questioned as he turned around and stepped in front of Matt, stopping him from getting any closer to Adelaide." One sister dumped you and you´re trying to get with the other?"
Matt looked towards Adelaide and saw her shaking her head." I think you should leave." Matt said as he tried to walk around Damon, but Damon stepped in front of him again.
"And who´s going to make me?" Damon questioned with a raise eyebrow.
"Me." Matt said as he pushed Damon away from Adelaide, and he raised his fist to hit Damon, but Adelaide moved to stand in front of him." You need to leave!" She said as she turned to wards Damon.
"I don´t think i will."Damon said.
"Come on." Adelaide said as she took Matt´s hand and pulled him along side her.
Matt turned to look at Damon as he questioned." What is his problem?..." What?" Matt questioned as he sees a smirk on Adelaide´s face.
"I gotta say this new found heroism is making me very attractive to you." Adelaide said as she pointed her finger at him.
Matt chuckled." Shut up."
"No, seriously." Adelaide said as she grabbed him by the arm to make him stop walking." Do you want to try and make out for a second. Just to see how it feels." Adelaide said laughing as Matt pushed her away from him.
"You sure?"
"Walk." Matt said as he pointed his finger towards the field.
Matt and Adelaide didn´t noticed the woman that stood behind the trees watching them with a longing look on her face.
"Why´re we here?" A man questioned as he walked towards the woman.
"I need to make sure she´s safe." The woman said as she kept her eyes on them.
The man looked at the two teenagers he had known most of his life as he questioned." You never told me why Adelaide Gilbert means so much to you that you would risk everything we have worked for?"
"Because she´s my sister." The woman said.
"She´s Elena and Jeremy Gilbert´s sister."
The woman quickly turned towards the man, grabbing him by the throat as she pushed him up against near by tree." She´s my sister it dosen´t matter who´s family she is born into, she´s mine!"
"Katherine."
"You will forget all i just said." Katherine said as she stared directly into the man´s eyes." All you need to know is when the time comes your job will be to protect Adelaide Gilbert. Do you understand me?"
"I understand." The man said.
"Good." Katherine said with a smile." Let´s go." She said before she turned back around to see the two teenagers where no where to bee seen.
Matt stood with his arms wrapped around Adelaide as they watched the coroners loaded the deceased mister Tanner into the back of the ambulance. Adelaide couldn´t believe that mister Tanner had gotten mauled by an animal.
Adelaide turned her head when she heard someone walking towards them. Adelaide quickly walked towards her friend when she sees Bonnie in tears." What´s wrong?" She questioned.
Bonnie didn´t say anything, but she quickly pulled Adelaide to the side where no one could hear them." You know, about the numbers i was seeing the other day? 8, 14, 22?" she questioned.
Adelaide nodded her head as she looked at Bonnie in confusion, but before she could say anything, Bonnie grabbed her hand and poined towards the building. Adelaide didn´t know what she was looking for, until she saw it said BLDG8. Bonnie turned another direction and pointed towards a car with the license plate that had 14. Bonnie then pointed next to the car, where the number 22 was painted.
Adelaide turned towards her friend, and saw that Bonnie had tears running down her face." Oh, Bonnie." Adelaide said as she pulled her friend into a tight hug." You couldn´t have known this was going to happen." Adelaide told her.
"I should have known." Bonnie said.
"No." Adelaide said as she pulled away so she could look at Bonnie."This is not your fault. Do you hear me?"
"Is everything okay?" The heard Matt questioned.
"Yeah. Everything is fine Matt." Adelaide said as she turned towards him with a smile on her face." I´m going to take Bonnie home."
"Okay." Matt said as he looked between the two girls before walking away.
"You need to talk to your Grams about what is going on with you." Adelaide said as the two girls made their way towards Bonnie´s car.
Adelaide finally made it home and headed straight to bed. She sighed. How could such a good day, turne into a disaster. Adelaide didn´t know what was going on in their town. Mister Tanner was the second person that was found with bite marks on their neck. Adelaide was glad that her siblings had made it home safely, so she didn´t have to worry about them. that was the las thing on her mind before closing her eyes.
