You're my other half

Just Drink Already

I sat on the chair watching Stefan do pull ups as Damon came up.

"Could you turn it up a little bit?" Damon yelled "not annoying yet"

"Sorry" Damon turned the music off.

"When are you going back to school?" Damon asked both of us but mostly Stefan.

"Soon"

"Why are you here?" Damon looked at me.

"I'm enjoying the show, what do you mean?" I smirked as he shook his head.

"Come on, just drink already"

"Damon, you know what happens when he drinks," I told Damon.

"This self detox is unnatural" Damon told Stefan as he held a drink in his hands and held it in front of Stefan.

"Damon" I glared at him.

"Could you get that away from me, please?" Stefan asked his brother.

"How long did it take you to wean yourself off of it after you last indulged?" Stefan didn't do anything and started doing pull-ups as his feet were on the couch "this is not good"

"I'll be fine, it just takes a little bit of time"

"I don't get it, you don't have to kill to survive. That's what blood bags are for, I haven't hunted a human in forever"

"Damon, everyone handles blood differently" I told him.

"I'm impressed"

"It was completely self serving. Trying to get the town off the trail of vampires, which is not easy. Considering there's an entire tomb of them running around"

Stefan got up "what are we planning on doing about that?"

"We're not going to be doing much of anything if you don't have your strength. There is nothing wrong with partaking in a healthy diet of human blood from a blood bank"

"Damon" I stood up "drop it"

"Fine" he placed his glass down "carry on then" Damon left then came back and grabbed his glass and left again.

"Stefan" he turned to me "are you sure, you are okay?" I asked him.

"Yeah I'm fine"

"You don't have to lie to me Stefan, I know you a lot more than you think. Well I'm here, if you need to talk" I got up as I went down to get a blood bag then went back to my room. Then I heard something so I went downstairs to see Stefan struggling.

"Stefan"

"Don't Allie"

"Hey" I walked over to him "it's okay" I walked over to him as I carefully placed my hand on his cheek "you trust me?"

He nodded "yeah"

"I am going to show you something" I told him as he nodded.

"So when are you two going to tie the knot?"

"Lexi! I think that's a conversation with Stefan, not me!"

"Do you want to marry Stefan?"

I smiled "of course, but I also just don't mind not being married and spending eternity with him"

"So you don't need a ring?"

I shook my head "no not really, I mean I would love one if he did actually propose but it wouldn't change anything for me. Stefan is the love of my life, he makes me the happiest person" I smiled.
