Fix You (A Vampire Diaries Fan-Fic)

Fix You- Friday Night Bites

"Are you sure it's a good idea for Elena to be dating him so quickly?" Chastity asked me the next morning. "It seems like this all happened too quickly."

She and I were currently hanging a huge banner for the homecoming rally in the hallway. I looked over at her after I finished hanging my side of the banner.

"Weren't you on Bonnie, Caroline, and my side just the other day when we were telling her to go for it?" I asked.

"Well now Bonnie and I think she should take it slow," she insisted.

"Is this about that whole touch thing?" I asked her.

"Look, we're just worried about her is all. Remember we were the same way when you started dating Adam."

"There was a reason for that," I said. "You guys knew he had a reputation for cheating on his girlfriends and you wanted me to be careful."

"And it wasn't fun for me to even think I told you so," she said. "Okay, I'll let it go. You said Elena's happy, right?"

"She was singing in the shower this morning," I smiled. "She hasn't done that since our parents..."

"I get it," she said. "She's happy, you're happy she's happy, and...I'm happy."

The way she said it didn't convince me fully and I was going to say something when my cell phone vibrated in my pocket. I flipped it open and read that I had one new text message from Elena. I opened it and smiled.

Tell Chastity that at eight o'clock she, Bonnie, and Stefan are coming over for dinner. They need to get to know him more.

"What are you doing later tonight?" I asked her casually. She bit her lip and hummed in thought.

"Nothing, I'm free." 

"Perfect. Then you are coming over at eight for dinner," I said. "Elena wants you and Bonnie to come over so you can have some bonding time with Stefan."

"I....Come to think of it I think I do have something going on tonight," she said quickly.

"You liar, you just said you were free," I fought.

"I just remembered I...I have something-"

"Chas, you said you would let it go," I reminded her. "If you really want to prove that you're happy for Elena, then come tonight. You'll see Stefan isn't so bad."

She sighed, but nodded.

"Okay," she said. "I'll be there."

"Hey Sam," Adam greeted as he sat in his desk next to me. "I saw the banner for homecoming. It's pretty cool, you did a great job."

"Thanks," I smiled. "Caroline was supposed to help hang it up this morning, but she never showed and she didn't answer her phone- which is out of character for her. You haven't seen her at all today have you?"

"Nope," he said. "Maybe she got held up by her mom or something."

"Maybe," I sighed unconvinced.

 "Hey, stop worrying so much. I'm sure Caroline's fine."

"Right," I nodded. "Sorry. It's just....I can't help it."

"I know you can't," he smiled sadly. "Anyway, practice starts up again today. I'm going. Are you?"

I bit my lip. He was talking about football practice for him and cheerleading for me. I honestly never loved cheerleading, it was more of an Elena and mom thing. Speaking of, I wonder if Elena was even going. She and I didn't go to camp over the summer for obvious reasons, but I wondered if she even remembered that practice starts up again today. Whether or not we were staying on the team wasn't really something we talked about. It was sort of the last thing on our minds actually.
