A Thousand Years, Stefan Salvatore

028. VAMPIRE BABYSITTING

Chapter twenty eight

"Vampire babysitting."

Athena woke up to a text from Damon asking her to bring her bow an arrow and come to the house, as she walked up to the door, she rang the door bell, the door soon opened as Damon pulled her in quickly shutting it behind her "hello to you too, Damon." she told him "look, I know you and Stefan have hit another rough patch.." Damon told her, as Athena sighed "he told you?" she asked him "about Katherine playing in your minds and giving you two a steamy make out session. Where your now all like, don't touch me again Stefan or I might make out with you." Damon shared.

As Athena smacked his hand away from her "well, I'm glad my virtue is amusing to you Damon." she told him, as Damon smirked, Athena then saw Stefan behind him, locking eyes with him, she quickly looked away, and when she did, Damon turned around "Stefan." he told him, taking Athena's arm and walking the two of them off, and as he did, Stefan turned looking at her and when he did, Elena walked up behind him with furrowed brows "what's up with them?" she asked "nothing." Stefan told her, although he couldn't stop staring at Athena, especially when Damon turned her to face him, he wondered what he wanted from her "Stefan?" Elena asked him.

As Stefan looked back at her "yeah, I've gotta go. And weren't you saying something about being late?" he asked her, as he turned around walking out the door, Elena went to leave as well as she turned to Athena and Damon, Damon quickly looked to her "where's Stefan?" he asked her "he left." Elena shared, as Athena let out a breath "I need you to talk to him. He's convinced that he need's to find Isobel. But I think that's gonna upset Elijah." Elena shared "no can do. I'm with Stefan on this one." Damon shared, as he furrowed his brows "don't you have school?" he asked her, as Elena looked to Athena, Damon raised his brows, as Elena turned around walking out.

Damon looked back at Athena "I called you here so you could play nurse" he shared, as Athena furrowed her brows "nurse for who?" she asked him "Rose got bit by a werewolf." Damon shared, as Athena raised her brows "yeah, exactly." Damon told her "Damon, I tried to kill her, twice." Athena reminded him, as Damon scoffed "she's sick and injured. You are focused on Stefan. Nothing could wrong it's just for a little while." he shared "how bad is it?" Athena asked him "the wolf bite cause some sort of infection. It's getting worse." Damon shared, and when he did, Athena nodded "well, I'm sorry." she told him "death happens. We come, we go. Sooner she dies, the better. You know that." Damon told her, as he turned walking off "where is she?" Athen asked him "parlor." Damon told her, as he walked out the door, Athena turned around and headed toward's the parlor.

Having brought Rose up to Damon's room, Athena was moving her to his bed "I hate this. I'm a vampire, I haven't had a cold in five centuries." Rose shared "I've never been sick either." Athena told her, as Rose climbed onto the bed "we don't get sick. When we die it's fast and sudden." she shared, as Athena took her cardigan off, she saw the bite mark as her eyes went wide, having heard the description from Damon but seeing it was worse, as Rose laid down "and it's certainly not drawn out with an illness." she mentioned, pulling the blanket over herself and laying back down "yeah, you know that I know that." Athena told her, she shared, fixing the hold of her bow an arrow as she looked around Damon's room.

"You've never been in Damon's room before, have you?" Rose asked her "once. I sat on his bed, looked at all the strange hand soaps he has in the bathroom but it was only because I protected him from getting another round of wooden bullets shot through him so we came back here so he could change and figure out where the vampire had gone to take him down." Athena shared "you're lucky, you know. No one's ever loved me the way you're loved." Rose shared, as Athena chuckled "what are you talking about?" she asked her "Trevor was my best friend. Nothing more. I spent all those years on the run from Elijah. I just never thought it was a good idea to set up roots. The whole idea of family is not exactly compatible with being a vampire." Rose shared.
