THIRD'S THE CHARM | The Vampire Diaries x Male OC

YOU'RE UNDEAD TO ME (S1:E5)

In the cellar of the Boarding house, Stefan and I are outside of the cell we've locked our brother in. I scoff at seeing him passed out on the ground, so Stefan turns towards me.

Stefan : What is it, Sam?

Sam : Look at him. He's our brother. What we're doing is wrong.

Stefan : What am I supposed to do? Let him run around freely and kill whoever he wants?

We get interrupted by Damon waking up and looking at us through the small window in the door.

Damon: Where is my ring?

Stefan: Won't be needing it anymore.

Damon: How long have I been here?

Sam : Three days.

He looks at me in betrayal, as if I didn't feel bad enough already.

Damon : You're helping him, Sammy?

Sam : I'm sorry, Damon. You tried to kill Caroline. Don't think this is easy for me either.

He scoffs, before turning back to Stef.

Damon: What are you doing?

Stefan: During the dark ages when a vampire's actions threatened to expose or bring harm upon the entire race, they would face judgment. They sought to reeducate them rather than to punish them.

Damon: You know what will happen if I don't...feed on blood.

Stefan: You'll grow weaker and weaker. Eventually you won't be able to move or speak. In a week your skin will desiccate, and you'll mummify. A living corpse. Unable to hurt anyone. Ever.

I close my eyes, the thought of that literally making me want to throw up.

Damon: So what, you're just going to leave me in the basement, forever?

Stefan: I've injected you with enough vervain to keep you weak. Once your circulation stops, I'll move you to the family crypt, and then in 50 years, we can reevaluate.

Hearing that, my eyes widen and I push Stefan back.

Sam : 50 years?! You told me it won't be that long!

Stefan : 50 years for a vampire really isn't all that much.

Damon chuckles, making our attention go back to him.

Damon: I'm stronger than you two think.

Stefan: You always have been. But you're not stronger than the vervain. And we both know it. I'm sorry. Didn't have to be this way.

Stefan goes back upstairs, leaving me alone with my oldest brother.

Damon : You won't let him lock me in for 50 years without blood, right Sammy?

I close my eyes and leave as well, hearing him scream my name again and again.

I had to leave the house, get away from Stefan and Damon both. I'm at the Grill, drinking some bourbon, when someone sits down next to me.

Logan : Hello there, young man. Aren't you a bit young to drink alcohol yet?

This asshole again. For fucks sake. With a massive sigh, I turn towards him.

Sam : What's your deal, man? I think you have some sort of death wish, counting the amount of times you've pissed me off already.

He chuckles, leaning back in his seat looking like a douche.

Logan : Look, I get it. You're a young boy and you've fallen for Jenna. We've all been in love with someone that's out of our league. I just wanted to let you know that Jenna and I will be having dinner this evening.
