When I answer the phone I recognize the voice, it's Kol. I want to hang up but I don't. I don't have
enough strength too. In my head I'm thinking how does he have Damon's phone? Why is he
calling me?
"Elena, I miss you and I haven't forgotten. I need to tell you something but face to face. Not on the
phone. Where and when can we meet?" I don't know how to reply and not sure if I want too. I'm
speechless. Here I thought he forgot but he didn't. He still cares and he did remember and doesn't
want to forget. But do I? Do I want to love him? I get up and go outside so Stefan didn't hear the
conversation.
"Kol, how do you have Damon's phone?" I ask him with question and confusion in my voice.
"Long story. I will tell you when we meet. When can we?" He says as fast as he can and in a rush.
Like I need to answer now. I tell him I can't until Jeremy's well and that I'm not leaving Jeremy's
side till he's better. He got mad a said he would call me later and that he had to go. As I turn
around to go back in I spy Stefan. I'm praying that he didn't hear me on the phone.

That night I was laying in my bed, trying to sleep but I can't. Not with so much on my mind. I roll
over and see a picture of Stefan and me. Looking at it I think of all the times him and I have felt
like we were the one for each other. Then I think of Kol and how much fun we always had. But I
need to decide either the one or fun and I need to decide soon or else ones going to leave and I
won't have a choice.

The next day I go downstairs and Stefan is there. He's pacing back and forth and he looks mad. I
ask him whats wrong and he replies...
"I heard you on the phone with Kol. What hasn't he forgotten about and why does he want to meet
you somewhere?" I just stood there and stared at Stefan. What do I tell him? The truth? Will he be
mad? I think about all of these questions and many more. Finally I make a decision and here it is..
"Before I tell you anything you have to promise not to get mad." He nods his head. "And first I
want you to know that I love you. Not Kol, not Damon... you! Kol and I used to date and we had so
much fun, always. We'd sneak behind you guys and his family. But when his family split he ran.
And I haven't talked or seen him until yesterday. I don't know why he wants to meet. But I'm
going to go to find out. Damon is just... whatever he is. Not someone I would want to
date." Stefan just stands there probably trying to adjust it all. Finally he walks towards me and
grabs my hands, then leans into kiss me and I kiss him back. I feel relived that he's not mad. But
then I think, he's taking this very well.
"Elena, I'm happy that you told me the truth and that's all I wanted. Yeah I'm upset that you dated
an original but you told me the truth. As for Damon." He looked into my eyes and pushed my hair
behind my ear. "I'll deal with him later." Right then and there my heart dropped. After all of this
stuff going on and the originals I always had the person that loves me right beside me. And I love
him, but still thinking of Kol.
