The Other Mikealson

I Told You

~Stefan~
All I needed was some time... to think, just to get away I guess. She probably hates me now, I'm not gonna track her down again if she left. If she wants to leave, then she can. The reason I won't isn't because she compelled me the last time, it's because I'm not good for her and if she's seeing that then I'm not gonna bring her somewhere where she'll just keep getting hurt.

I walk in and I didn't see anyone in the living room so I headed to my room. But when I passed the couch, I saw... Rebekah sleeping on the couch. Lovely, she's gonna fucking kill me.

Vamping upstairs, I see my bed has been taken over. By Ava. She was wearing a nightgown- not to long, not to short, cuddled up with one of my shirts; she was laying on her side in a fetal position. Some of the blanket was clutched into her fists, which her up by her mouth.

She looked bad, really bad. I know that was partly my fault, but she did do some of that to herself. Of course I know better then to say that to her, she'd kick my ass.

So instead, I walk over and brush my thumb against her cheek. She begins to stir, and I whisper her name.

"Ava?" She'd opened her eyes and there were tears in them, I think she thought she was dreaming me saying her name. "Ava" I repeat, softly.

She's about to start sobbing, and I know she is... so I vamp to the other side of the bed and sit down right in her view.

"Ava, look at me" She shakes her head, tears start to fall. "No, no, hey, hey, Ava look at me... look at me please, please?" I beg.

~Ava Lynn~
After what feels like forever of crying and being pitied, I finally fell asleep. I'm not sure how long it took me, but it felt like an eternity.

I'd been having a dream about Stefan and I... like if none of this happened some of the stuff we could be doing- besides messing around in the sheets.

'Stefan, look at this! It's so pretty!' I say in amazement, holding up a beautiful dress. 'Do you want it?' 'No, I'm just admiring it's 'Ava, if you want it, let me buy it for you' 'I don't want you spending money on me, though' 'I won't be, that's the beauty of being a vampire' I raise an eyebrow and he takes the dress from me and hands it to cashier.

'That'll be-' '-on the house' He compels her. 'That's on the house, enjoy your dress and come back whenever you'd like!' She says, smiling. 'Stefan!' I giggle. 'Whaf? You wanted it, but didn't want me spending money on me, so technically I didn't spend money on it' 'Your rediculous' I giggle.

He kisses me and for some reason starts freaking out. 'Ava?' He asks, like I've blanked out or something. I tried to tell him that I was ok but he said my name again. 'Ava' but softer this time.

When I woke up, I saw Stefan but I thought that it was just part of my dream. I wanted my dream to be real, and I was crying when I woke up. He tried calming me down by showing me that he was really there, but it didn't calm me down at all.

"Ava, look at me, please... Please?" He begs. Unwilling, my eyes flick to where he is. He takes my hand and holds it, bringing it to his mouth and kissing it.

"I'm so sorry, Ava, I'm sorry" I cry hearing him apologize, because really he's not the one who needs to be doing the apologizing, it's me.
