Damon Salvatore: I will always choose you.

Kill or be killed

EDITED// 04-12-22

There was some juicy drama going on in both the Gilbert and Salvatore households.

Basically Katherine spent all of yesterday with Stefan which was why he wasn't replying to anyone. But that's not even the good part. Caroline tried to kidnap Elena but wussed out of it, Katherine wants Stefan to herself so she threatened to kill Elena, and they figured out Caroline was spying for Katherine so Elena and Stefan pretended to break-up in front of Caroline so Elena won't get hurt by Katherine but they're actually still dating - just in secret. Also, Damon tried to stab Mason with the silver knife but he failed so now Damon's earned himself a new enemy; like he needed any more.

And breath...

A lot of things went down last night, let's just say that.

Let me say something else.

Who in the world thought of the 'Historical Society Volunteer Picnic'? Just why? What was the need?

"I know you're not keen on these events but as a founding family we have to go." Elena tried to reason with me as she lifted the sheets off my bed.

"It's a load of bull, you can go by yourself." I groaned and covered my face with a pillow.

"If I have to go then you have to go." I heard the voice of my little brother state.

"Piss off Jer." I said, hoping he could understand my muffled voice through the pillow.

I could just make out his laugh and then felt hands grab onto my ankles.

My protests fell on deaf ears as I was dragged off my bed and onto the cold wooden floor.

"Looks like you're coming with us now." Elena smirked and pulled me to a stand.

"I hate you both."

"Love you too, Lil." Jeremy replied smugly and followed us into the bathroom. "I can't believe Tyler Lockwood is a werewolf."

"We're not sure about that yet. The only thing we know for sure is that Mason Lockwood is." Elena corrected.

"I told you he was a werewolf." I said victoriously.

Jeremy pointed at me, "It should be easy enough for us to figure out if Tyler is then." He added.

"There is no us. We said that we wouldn't keep things from you anymore. That doesn't mean that we want you involved in it."

"By definition of being in this family, I'm involved."

"This is dangerous, Jeremy." Elena warned.

"She's right. Please stay out of it." I pleaded, knowing that if I asked he'd be more likely to obey.

"Alright." He sighed and went back to his room.

"If you're not ready in ten minutes I'm dragging you there in your pjs." Elena turned to me.

"Whatever." I rolled my eyes and went back to my room to get dressed.

._.

I didn't know child labour was still a thing but here we are, three teenage girls, painting a veranda - for free may I add.

I should've pretended I had the flu or something this morning.

"So suddenly, she's in the running for Mother of the Year just when I'm trying to avoid her the most. I'm babbling, you don't want to hear all this." Caroline rambled on as I wiped the sweat from my forehead.

"Oh, no, sorry. Then what happened?" Elena replied, trying to sound interested.

"Well, I was a bitch which is par for the course with us. So, how are things with you and Stefan? Anything?"
