Stefan and Delena: Origin

{10} The Original is back

Stefan's P.O.V 

I was getting impatient. Damon, Elena and Caroline were meant to be meeting me at the Grill at 12pm. It was now 12:30. I frustratedly  tapped my foot and crossed my arms. This wasn't funny, I wasn't getting any younger. Okay, okay so that phrase wasn't  really compatible with me being a vampire but hey, it was true. I wasn't getting any younger, I was forever 17. 

A face that I couldn't forget was walking up to me, his black leather boots making a faint noise against the ground that only added intimidation to his walk. As soon as he was close enough, he sent a touch of evil from his greeny blue eyes to mine.

"Hello Stefan." He said, his British accent husky and mysterious.

"Klaus." I replied, eyeing my enemy. "When did you come back to town.?"

"Oh, only this morning. You see, I'm on a little hunt for a friend of mine." He raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Hm. What about Elena?" I asked, stupidly.

"Ah yes. Well I've decided finding my little friend is a bit more important than stealing an eighteen year old girl from Damon Salvatore's arms. That can wait another day." He grinned at me, mocking the fact Elena had chosen Damon and not me.

"You're up to something..." I told him, shaking off his hurtful joke.

"Oh on the contrary, I also enjoy going to my favorite bar. Which is another reason as to why I am here. But I can see you do not want my company. So I will continue with my expedition." His grin grew even wider. Klaus turn on his heel and walked off.

Great. Not only do I have to deal with the fact that the girl I love is with my brother, the Hybrid obsessed Original British guy has returned as well. 

"Sorry I'm late!" Caroline squeaked as she jumped up behind me, her bouncy curls brushing past my face.

"It's fine, I enjoy waiting outside like a loner for nearly an hour." I exaggerated, looking at my watch to see she was only forty minutes late,

"Ugh, my Mum was going on about having lunch with me. I said maybe later but she insisted I sat down and ate with her." Caroline huffed. "Something's wrong, what is it?"

"Klaus has decided to pay a visit to Mystic Falls." I replied flatly.

"What? Does Elena know? What if he catches her?"

"He seemed to be pretty much occupied finding a 'friend' of his, for the time being." I told her.

"Friend? What friend?" Caroline asked, poofing up her curls.

"I have no idea, I forgot to ask."

"Stefan! If Klaus has a friend in Mystic Falls they are most likely to be a vampire, and most likely up to something!" Caroline panicked.

"Shh, Caroline! It will be fine! Just don't tell Elena, she already has enough on her plate by making sure Jeremy doesn't go anywhere for a few days while the vampire blood is still in his system. To find out that Klaus is back, who knows how she will react." I demanded.

"Okay, okay. What about Damon?

"He will be bound to try and protect Elena, then she will get suspicious and find out." 

"So no then." Caroline replied, crossing her arms.

"Hey guys, sorry we're late. I had to wait for Alaric to come home and look after Jeremy before I could go anyway, Damon decided to keep me company." Elena explained, strolling towards us with her hand entwined with my Brother's.

"You're seriously keeping Jeremy on house arrest?" Caroline asked sarcastically.

"I know it's silly, but I can't take any chances. What if more vampires came and attacked him? It's only for another day." 

"Okay, okay. So why did you tell us to meet here Caroline?" I asked, pretending like I hadn't been here for long.

"Well, three reasons. One, I was bored. Two, just a few minor school dance arrangements. Three, we need a birthday surprise for Bonnie!" She screeched. 

God dammit, I had to ask didn't I.

"Where's Matt?" Elena asked.

"Oh he's just inside working, we can call him out here in a bit." Caroline smiled.

"Birthday surprise? Bonnie doesn't come across as someone who likes big birthday surprises." I said rather surprised.

"Because she's not. Caroline, you know what happened last year when we surprised her." Elena warned.

"I know, I know. I just want to do something nice for my best friend. It won't be like a massive surprise." Caroline corrected me.

This was going to be a long day.
