Chapter three.
Stefan's POV
Elena's standing in front of me. What should I do? Should I walk away or confront her on why she chose Damon?
Before I let my my thoughts consumes me, I said "I'm sorry." She held her head up and looked at me confused and then she said "For what?"
"For bumping into you. I never meant to and it was my fault for not looking at the road straight." I said it in a cold tone.
"Oh that. It wasn't your fault, it was me." I can sense some sadness in her voice.
After our little so-called conversation or half apologetic conversation, the silence between us became awkward. We both didn't bothered to speak and that was the moment I decided to walk away. I turned around and started walking, and I didn't looked back at Elena.
"She was standing right in front of me! Why would I do such thing and walked away from her? Why can't I just touch her, hug her, and kiss those perfect pink lips forever? I wanted to tell her that I never stopped loving her. Even when she broke my heart into a million pieces and stomped on it. I still stayed by her side and helped her. And that's what I do. I'd do anything in my power to protect Elena from getting hurt... I just wanted to tell her these little things on mind, whether she chose to stayed with Damon. I will still be there for her." I keep telling myself.
Right before I was able to disappear in the corner, she called out my name.
Elena's POV
He walked away from me. He just did. I chose his brother and I should've felt happy but somehow I felt sad and hurt when Stefan walked out of me. I felt ashamed of what I did to him. I broke his heart again. Should I go after him? I want to but my body was telling me not to. I did the opposite and asked him whether we could talk or not.
"Stefan wait." I yelled. He stopped and turned to me, I could still see the hurt and sadness in his eyes. Probably a little bit of anger too. "Could we talk?" I asked and hoping he'll say yes.
"Actually, no. I'm going back to New York today with Lexi later. So I guess not." He said and my heart sank a little. But I'm not giving up so easily.
"What about now? I see that you see still have some time left before you head back. Caroline told me everything." I said and he stared at me with those perfect green eyes. God! I've missed those eyes.
He didn't say anything back, he just stared at me. He seemed to be thinking. And then he said "Sure. I guess we could at least talk for a while." He then took out his phone and called Lexi saying he'll be a little late so she should head back home first.
"So meet me at the park at 10:30 am later?"
"Okay."
I head back and told Caroline and Bonnie that Jenna called and asked me to help her. I drive back home and saw Jeremy sitting on the couch.
He saw that I was somewhat sad so he asked me "What's wrong sis? What's bothering you?"
"Nothing." I told but he wasn't so convinced. "Spill it sis. I know something's bothering you."
"Fine! Actually, it's about Stefan. Caroline told me that Stefan, Lexi and her was in the room next to Damon and mine's when I had that love declaration to Damon. She told me that he was heartbroken and that him and Lexi are heading back to New York. And they're staying there till the summer's over!" I yelled at the last line.
But before Jeremy said anything, I cut him off.
"I really did messed things up. Did I?" I asked and look at him.
