Chapter 12 I-I can't

Chapter 12: I-I can't

Stefan POV

"Stefan." I hear a weak voice say. "Elena." I say looking into her brown eyes, on the verge of tears. "Stefan don't." She turns and runs away. I quickly turn to Katherine. "You will pay!" I smack her across the face with my vamp strength. No matter what Elena says, I will not let her leave me, not without one last kiss. I use my vamp speed to get to her faster. I soon find her in the middle of the woods, curled up in a ball crying. "Elena, please." I walk towards her crying. "Stefan I-I can't do this." She says looking into my eyes. "Elena please talk to me." I say sitting next to her, wishing I could put my arms around her and pull her close to me. "Stefan, I think we need to a break." She says looking down. "Elena, I can't let you go." I say crying harder. "Stefan, I-I-I want to take a break." She says crying. "So you want to break up." I say standing up. "Stefan please don't get mad." Elena, says also standing up. "ELENA! HOW AM I NOT SUPPOSED TO BE MAD! I LOVE YOU!" I say yelling at her. "Stefan please, just a break." She says trying to comfort me. "Fine, but I'm not leaving without this." I say leaning closer. "Wha." She starts. I crash my lips on her. I felt her shake, I know she still loves me, but maybe she doesn't. "Without that." I say turning around. "Good-bye Elena, that kiss, was Katherine not me. I will get you back Elena. I will." I tell her and use my vamp speed and go back to the house. I pack my bags and leave.

Elena POV

I still have no clue why I did that. The kiss between him and Katherine was uncalled for but, still why did I do it? I walk home to the lake house. I see that Stefan packed up his stuff and left, so thats that. We are officaly done. I pack my bags. Great how am I supposed to get home now. Stefan took his car. I pick up my phone and scroll through my contacts, I see Stefan's with hearts on it. Seeing it makes me cry. I continue to scroll and soon find myself calling Damon. "Elena Gilbert! What can I do for you?" "Ok look Stefan and I uhh kinda broke it off, well we're taking a break. So anyway I'm suck at the lake house, I'll text you the adress, just please pick me up." I explain. "It would be my honor!' I hear Damon, probably smirking. "Great thanks." I say sacrasticly through the phone. In about an hour the doorbell rings." I run down and open it. "Damon." "Elena!" He says more excitidly than me. "Get my bags, would ya? There in the kitchen." I say pointing to it. "Of course!" He says making his way there. I go to his car and wait. "Here I am!" He says getting into the drivers side. "So what shall we talk about, rode trip buddie?" Damon asks nugging my shoulder. I simply ignore him and go back to my phone. "Come on, talk to me about your break up, it'll help." He said in a more serious tone. "Ugg fine." I say putting my phone down. I spent a good 30 minutes explaining what happened and how I felt. Damon was actually extremly nice, and helped me, he was right, it did make me feel better. We talked more, about life, funny stoires. What if I gave Damon a chance? "Hey I'm gonna pull over and get some gass. "Okay." I say. Once we pulls into the gass stop I hop out of the car as well. I walk over to where Damon was filling the car up with gass. "Elena what are yo-"He starts but I stop him. Because I kiss him. I want to give Damon a shot. I think. He releases from our kiss. "Elena, why did you do that! Stefan is my brother." He says putting the gass pump away. "Oh please Damon! Like you really even care about Stefan!" I say putting my hands on my hips. "That is true Elena but you do." He say walking towards me. "Damon, look I want you not Stefan but you." I say walking closer to him. He crashes his lips on mine. "So now I'm yours." I say with a smirk. "Your mine. What do you say about having a couple party tomorrow?" He asks me as he puts his hand on mine. "Sounds lovely I say, as I kiss him. We quickly arrives at my house. "I'll pick you up tomorrow at 8." He says. "See you then." I wink. I have to open my own car door. I do miss Stefan doing that for me. I unlock my house door and walk up to my bedroom. On my dresser I see a framed picture of Stefan and I's first kiss, at sunset. Bonnie was hidden and she took a ton of photos. That one is my favorite. I pick it up as a flash back of memories come to my mind. I put it down and take a deep breath. I change into my pjs and crawl into my bed.

I woke up at 9:30 and saw numerous text from a group chat. I picked up my phone and decided to call Care.

"Hey Care."

"Hey Elena. I'm at Starbucks, want anything?"

"Uh vienti vaniella steamer."

"Cool!"

"Can you stop by my house for a little while?"

"Of course! Be there soon!"

I set my phone down and hop in the shower. The hot water on my back helps me think. I get dresed into a black lace tank top and white jeans, and navy converse. Once I slip on my shoes the doorbell rings. "COMING!" I yell. I run down the stairs and open the door. "Hey Care!" "Hey Elena!" She says giving me a hug. She hands me a drink. "Come on, lets go in my room." I say as she follows me upstairs. "So tell me everything that happned!" She says with a grin. "I tell her everything well except for Damon. "Oh my God! Elena! I'm so sorry! Don't worry he'll come crawling fast to you soon enough!" Caroline says which makes me laugh. "Well actually, I met a guy and we talked, it's been epic. We're having a couple's party tonight. It starts at 8. Will you come?" I ask her. "Only if you tell me who this guy is?" She asks rising her eyebrows. "Fine, its Damon." I say smiling. "WHAT! ELENA!" Caroline says slapping my face. "Caroline!" I scream at her. "You know what Elena! Fine I'll come but, only because you and Stefan will end up together. You are just too blind to relize it!" She says to me. Caroline stands up, slams my bedroom door and my front door. My phone starts to ring, I pick it up and see that its Stefan. I know I shouldn't pick it up, but I find myself doing exactly that. "Um hello?" I softly say. "Oh sorry wrong number." Stefan says hanging up. I lay on my bed just thinking...about Stefan. Stop it Elena! Your with Damon! I decieded to find something to wear to try and get my mind off of Stefan.

Stefan POV

"DAMON!" I yell slamming my bedroom door. "Hey Stef! Did you hear! Your ex-girlfriend is now mine!" He says walking towards me. "I HATE YOU!" I say pushing him out the window. I fly down and start punching him. "Stefan! Stop!" He says closing his eyes. "NO DAMON! I don't care if you are my brother! I will kill you!" I say kneeing him in the gutt. "You could at least kill me after Elena and I's couples party!" He says getting up. "Hey actually how about you come! And see what you lost!" He says walking towards the door. "If I got her once, I can get her again!" I yell to Daom before he walks inside.

Elena POV

I finish my makeup and look in the mirror. I decided on a red crop top and black high waisted jeans and white high top converse. I pick up my phone and see that its 8. Damon should be here soon. I go downstairs and wait by the door. "Stefan was always in time." I say aloud. 10 minutes later the doorbell finally rings. "Hello darling." Damon says leaning in for a kiss. "Hi Damon." I say going for a hug instead. "Shall we?" He asks putting his arm around me. "Of course." I say as we walk to his car. We decide to talk instead of listening to music. The more I learn about him the more I like him....I think. "Here we are." He says getting out. Right I have to open my door. I remind myself. Damon waits for me by the front door. I let myself kiss him so I can get into the party mood. He smirks before opening the door. We walk in and there are already people flooding the Salvatore boarding house. "I didn't know you knew so many people." I say looking at the crowd. "Darling I have been alive longer then you." Damon says with a laugh, I chuckle with him. "Come on. Let me introduce you to some people." Damon says bringing me over to the crowd. After meeting many, many people I see a particular person that stands out. "Sorry Damon I'm gonna go talk to someone. Be back soon." I say as Damon. I walk over to where Stefan is sipping his whiskey. "Hey uh Stefan. Can I talk to you, in the uh hallway." I ask hesitantly. "Of course." Stefan says walking into the hallway near his bedroom. "Why don't you hate me?" I ask crossing my arms. "Elena I could never hate you." Stefan responses. "BUT STEFAN IM DATING YOUR BROTHER!" I yell. "ELENA WHAT IS LOVE TO YOU!" Stefan yells back to me. "YOU STEFAN! YOU ARE LOVE TO ME! STEFAN YOU!" "Elena." Stefan says in a softer tone. "Oh my God! Oh my God! Stefan what's wrong with me!" I say crumbling to the ground. "Elena maybe you.." Stefan starts comforting me. "No Stefan I broke up with you. I shouldn't love you." I say pulling my hair. "Elena." Stefan says sitting next to me. I did something wrong I leaned in and kissed Stefan. Stefan kisses me back and it feels so so good. A tear slips out and Stefan releases from the kiss. "You ok?" He whispers. "Yes." I whisper back. I stand up, take Stefan's hand and walk into his room.
