Two Months Later | Present Time
"Come on, Stefan! Go!" Lexi shouted excitedly, earning a sigh from the brooding vampire.
"I can't, Lex," he grumbled, fighting against her hand which was pulling him with her.
"Yes, you can! They would want this for you. They would want you to be happy," Lexi spoke, her voice soft as she grabbed the boy's shoulders. "She would want this."
"I don't have time for dating, Lexi. Things are far too complicated for that," Stefan argued as he looked around the city road they were standing next to, his eyes landing on what used to be Margot's favourite churro truck before meeting the blondes once again.
"Yes, but you made it work before, so why not now? If anything, it's perfect."
"Charlie isn't going to want someone with as much baggage as I have. It would be an unhealthy relationship," Stefan explained as they moved to walk down the sidewalk in New York.
The best friends had moved there not long after everything went down. Stefan couldn't live in Mystic Falls anymore and Lexi promised to help him, so they both left.
It was for the best.
Stefan was working as a mechanic while Lexi worked as a nurse. They shared an apartment near where Margot used to live. Everything had been fine... Until Stefan ran into his ex-boyfriend Charlie.
They had broken up right before Silas locked Stefan in a coffin before pushing him into the lake. It was too complicated; both their lives just didn't fit together. They didn't have time for a relationship so they ended it.
Now, when they saw each other again, Charlie immediately asked if Stefan wanted to get a coffee and Stefan couldn't help but say yes.
"I'm sure he can handle it. He's a witch, he goes through shit all the time. Now, get your ass dressed or I will drag you to the coffee shop myself."
Somewhere Unknown
"Pancakes again?" a woman asked as she walked into a kitchen, a man following behind her, their hands intertwined.
The raven-haired man standing at the stove shook his head with a smirk, "Uh-uh. Vampcakes, Maggie. Your favourite, remember? Oh, and Bon Bon's making coffee."
Margot and Klaus glanced back, sending a grateful smile to the witch as she handed them two steaming cups of coffee.
The group made their way to the dining table where Damon laid out four plates, each with a stack of vampcakes on them. Bonnie rolled her eyes as she looked down at the plate, "Every day I tell you that I hate that."
"And every day, I do it anyway. Bon appetit," Damon retorted with a smile as he handed her a fork.
Margot smiled as she handed Damon the crossword puzzle before leaning into Klaus' side as they ate breakfast.
