Chapter seven.
Stefan's POV
Today is the day we fly back to Mystic Falls. It sucks that we had only spent 4 weeks here. The planned we had originally have to be put behind schedule. I'm at my room packing things. I still haven't decided whether I should tell Elena about me and Katherine. I owe her an explanation. The first thing that spring up in my mind when Elena said we have a lot to catch up is she already made a decision on who she want. I wondered if it's me or Damon. She said he's not in Mystic Falls.
I finished packing when I heard a knock at the door. Lexi's head popped out and she let herself in.
"Lexi, what are you doing here?"
"I need to talk to you cause you know I'm your best friend and whatnot"
I grinned and asked "Okay, what do you want to talk about?"
I saw her rummaging through the room. "I know this isn't my business but as your friend, I need to give you some guidance. I know you're with Katherine now, but do you remember what you said to Elena when you left?"
I nod and you sat on the chair across me. "You told her to figure out her feelings and who she want, Stefan. I speculate that she'd probably figured those things out already. What about you Stefan? I noticed that you've been acting weird. Did you figure yourself out?"
"God! How could Lexi see me through like that!" I said to myself.
I shake my head and articulately said "I love Elena and you know it Lexi! But with everything that had happened, everything changes already. I don't even know anymore. And then Katherine came back. She was my first love and she'll always be. Rebekah told me a person will never forget their first love and it's true. I didn't. I'm conflicted. I really really love Elena. But she chose Damon!" she nodded.
"Stefan, I know it's true and hard at the same time. I understand. But you can't string them both in your hands. In the long run, you have to choose one. Either Elena or Katherine. Also, you and Elena had gone through a lot of impediments, you guys survived it and all. You guys were love sick puppies back then. You asked me once if Elena was the one and I said she was. She'll always be an epic love to you. You two are soul mates, you're Elena's other half and she's yours. I am in no position to tell you who to choose but Stefan, you have to make a decision. Make one now before it's too late" she concluded and walked away.
I sat there and let Lexi's words sinks in. I have to make a decision before it's too late. Now I'm the one playing with both girls.
Elena's POV
I woke up early this morning because today it's finally the day Stefan's returning back home! I was so thrilled to have him back here. I can finally told him who I want. I want him. I want Stefan in my life. I can't live without him. Oh and not to mention, I'm picking him up today at the airport.
I put on the biggest smile on my face and walked to Caroline and Bonnie.
"Hey what are you guys doing?" I questioned.
"Oh nothing. You know just talking and hanging. And what's with the huge smile on your face? Spill it" Caroline uttered.
"It's-" before I could finish my words, Bonnie cut me off. "You don't have to ask her Caroline. It's so obvious. She has this happy-to-see-Stefan smile on her face. Stefan's coming back and she's picking him up at airport so that explains the smile" she finishes it with a laugh.
I looked at Bonnie "Is it really that obvious?"
"Yes Elena. It is that obvious" we both laughed.
