"You know what I am." Stefan says sighing.

"No I don't-" Elena starts.

"Yes you do." He interrupts her. "Or else you wouldn't be here. Everything that you believe in is going to change. Are you ready for that?"

"Just tell me what you are." Elena demands again.

"I'm a vampire." Stefan says bluntly.

I begin walking slowly to the front door. I try to stand behind Stefan.

"Ellie have you been here all day?" Elena asks me.

She pushes Stefan aside and hugs me tightly. When she releases me she puts a arm in front of me defensively. I can't help but roll my eyes at the act.

"Elena I kinda already know." I tell her.

"What! You didn't bother to tell me I was dating this...this monster!" She yells.

"No. Elena he's not a monster-" I start.

"What about Damon? Is Damon one too?!" She demands, cutting me off. She looks back at Stefan angrily. She then grabs my wrist and begins pulling me out the front door. She feels the two bumps on my wrist and looks at my bite mark.

"Oh my god!" She exclaims when she sees my bite mark. She turns and faces Stefan. "Did you do this?!" She snaps.

"Elena he doesn't drink human blood!" I exclaim.

"No come on." She says pulling me towards her car.

Stefan appears right in front of us. "Please let me explain!" He begs. He grabs Elena's shoulders and tries to calm her down. Except she just screams and runs to the car. She pushes me into the passenger seat and then she jumps into the drivers seat. She fumbles the keys into the ignition and speeds down the road.

Elena angrily pulls me into her room. She closes the door and throws her jacket on the bed.

"Elena...I'm sorry I didn't tell you. Stefan promised me that he was going to do it. I just wanted to protect you!" I plead.

"Protect me! Eleanor if you were trying to protect me you would've told me I was dating a vampire!" She yells. "He probably fed on those innocent townspeople."

"Elena no!" I yell. "He didn't. He doesn't even drink human blood!"

"Ellie's right." I hear Stefan say. Elena and I both turn around. Stefan standing right there. Elena starts running for the door but he blocks it.

"I would never hurt you. Or your family." Stefan tells her reassuringly. "I never hurt Ellie, it was Damon. I don't drink human blood, I only drink animal blood. I swear I'll tell you everything, I just need you not to tell anybody."

"How could you ask me that?" Elena asks him, you can hear in her voice that she's about to cry.

"This is all so dangerous for you to know." Stefan tells her.

"Then go! If you mean me no harm, then go." Elena demands.

"I didn't want this to happen." Stefan whispers. And just like that, he's gone.

"Elena I'm so sorry." I apologize. She ignores me and goes to her window. She locks it and sits at her window seat.

I let out a weary sigh and head to my own room. I change from out of my bathing suit and put on sweatpants and a sweatshirt. I look out the window and see Stefan standing on our front porch. I walk downstairs and open the front door.
