Stelena

    Three nights and counting. Stefan hadn’t come back to the boarding house and even Damon was getting concerned. Damon didn’t show his emotions often but when he did, you knew it it was real. The worry buried in his eyes was making Elena jittery. She tried calling Stefan’s cell phone a number of times, each one just rang and rang until the voice mail picked up. After a few calls, the voice mail began to pick it up automatically.
    She had to keep going to school though. Jenna could stand her ‘staying at bonnie or Caroline’s’ all the time...

Rachel looked around her at the police station when someone called her.
“Can I help you, ma’am?”
Rachel looked up and saw Sherrif Forbes standing a few yards away from her. “Eh, yeah, I want to report a disappearance”
“Maybe we should talk about this in my office?” Liz offered and she guided Rachel to her office. “Have a seat” she said when she placed herself behind the bureau. Rachel sat down.
“Someone went missing?” Liz asked, staring sharply at Rachel.
Rachel, feeling uneasy, moved on her seat. “My husband, Gabe. He hasn’t been home in a few days. We had a fight...

“I’m lying if I say I never wanted to hurt him, because I did. That was all I could think of” Bonnie started. “I wanted to punish him for all the things he’d done. I wanted to make him suffer like he made others suffer”
“What did he do? And why couldn’t you hand him over to the police?” Keith asked curious.
Bonnie pulled the sheets. These were the questions she wasn’t sure how to answer. If she answered the first one, she’d put Damon in a bad daylight and that wasn’t the way to forgiveness. If she answered the second, she’d expose him.
“He did some bad things” she...

Rebekah smiled viciously at Katherine, but Stefan pushed Rebekah off. “Katherine, where’ve you been?” he said casual.
“Not in your pants, that’s for sure” Katherine said sarcastic.
“Restricted area, staff only” Rebekah said smug. Katherine rolled her eyes.
“Can I have a word with you?” she asked Rebekah. Rebekah leaned forward and kissed Stefan. She then followed Katherine outside.
“Now what?” she asked short.
“I’m done with this” Katherine said.
“With what exactly?” Rebekah said bored, playing with her nails.
“This whole doppelganger blood stealing thing”...

The sun rose and shone through the curtains. Damon opened his eyes and looked at Elena’s crown. He looked up and saw the planks still lying on the ground. He recalled the last night. At a certain moment Elena’s bed had collapsed and Damon didn’t have the heart to send her to another room and so he let her sleep with him.
“I think you’re starting to recover” Elena had softly said. She had crawled up against him and fallen asleep.
Damon stroke her hair and she woke up. She looked up and gave him a soft kiss. “Hi” she smiled. “Good morning”
“Good morning to you too” Damon...

“So this is where people go these days to be social” Rebekah said looking around in the Grill.
“Well, it’s definitely the most popular establishment in town” Stefan replied.
“Don’t you mean the only establishment?” Rebekah said disdainful. Stefan emptied his glass. “You want another shot?” he asked.
“Sure, keep them coming” Rebekah smiled. She emptied her glass, as well as the second and the third. “How long does it take for you to get drunk?”
“Why?” Stefan asked. “You have plans for me?”
A smirk appeared on Rebekah’s face. “Well, if you come with me, I...

Derek scribbled up. “You really have some serious issues, man” he said after his nose had healed.
“Yeah, I’m sorry” Damon said, not very sincere. “But you wanted me to teach you”
Derek sought support against the wall. “I think I’m going to need some blood” he said looking meaningful at Damon. Damon rolled his eyes. “Fine, then. Come with me” He saw how Derek’s face cleared up. “You’re not staying over” he said sharp.
“No, of course not” Derek said, shaking his head. “I’ll just have some blood and then I’ll be off”
“Good” Damon said, pleased that...

“It’s alright, you can take your time” the doctor said. She stared at the young woman who was sitting opposite of her and hadn’t said a word since she walked in.
“I need help” Bonnie eventually said with a small voice. The doctor nodded. “That’s why you’re here. Acknowledging you’re powerless is the first step and you’ve taken it”
“I’ve done horrible things” Bonnie said staring at the desk. “And my victims will carry the scars forever”
“That’s how things look like right now” the doctor said. “In time it could change. They can learn to live with it, as...

Ronnie opened the door to let in whoever was knocking. “Seriously, flowers? Can you say cheesy?”
Tyler put the flowers in Ronnie’s hands. “This is me saying I’m sorry”
“And it took you seven days to get those words over your lips?” Ronnie asked sarcastic.
“No, I just hoped you’d be more forgiving by now” Tyler answered. “Can I come in?” Ronnie looked around as if she wanted to check if he’d come alone. “How did you find me?”
“Eh, Caroline’s mom is the sheriff of Mystic Falls. It was pretty easy” Tyler confessed.
“Oh, I see” Ronnie sighed. “Well, I suppose...

Elena was lying on the bed her eyes wide open. Alaric had called her to get up, but she wanted to stay in bed. All day. Maybe listen to some sad songs.
“Elena, get your ass out of bed, you’ve got mail” Alaric shouted outside her room.
“It’s Sunday, I deserve one day of feeling miserable” Elena muttered. The latch went down and Alaric entered the room. He walked to the bed and sank down.
“I know you’re hurt” he started. “But you can’t let him have this kind of power over you. You can’t stop living, because he’s a jerk”
Elena wiped her eyes and sobbed. “You’re...
