Stefan's POV

"Lexi?" I asked still breathless from her tackling me. She giggled, kissed my cheek, jumped off me and pulled me up. She seemed like her usuual self, wearing a light blue shirt with black skinny jeans and heels. Her hair was curly and wavy and her blue eyes were sparkling.

"What.........what...are you doin? here?" I asked. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" She cried and hugged me. I was still trying to process what had happened. Elena had just figured out...and Lexi was....and it was my birthday. I shook my head and she pulled out of the hug, confused.

"Whats wrong?" She asked.

 "It's just..." I started to say but I couldn't....oh I can't believe it. It's all hitting me now. "Elena!" I whispered, sitting down and putting my head in my hands. 

"Who's Elena?" Lexi asked sitting next to me. 

"She's my...well she was my...I don't know what she was." I confessed and sighed.

I pulled out my phone and showed her the picture I had on my phone. 

"Um...but she looks like..........SHE LOOKS LIKE KATHERINE!"

"REALLY GENIUS I HAD NO IDEA!" I shouted back

"But I don't...WHAT?!" She said

I sighed again and told her the whole story. When I was done, I put my head back in my hands. 

"Whoa..." She said still looking at the picture on my phone. 

"I know!" I said quietly. 

"I mean...whoa...!" She said agian. 

"I know!" I repeated.

"Oh Stefan...you're in love with her!" She said suddenly. My head shot up.

"NO! I am not!" I protested. "I just like her a lot and I wanna be with her and protect her and I...oh God...I do love her." I said. She smirked at me.

"But what does that matter now?!" I cried desperatley. "She knows about me and about Katherine and...she can't handle it!"

"First of all, there was no you and Katherine! Secondly just give her some time, this is a lot to take in Stefan."

Elena's POV

I couldn't stop crying. The tears just kept coming and coming. It was about 2 in the morning now and my parents had given up trying to talk to me around 11. But how could I tell them? I cried harder. There was no one I could even talk too.

Was he just with me because I looked like her? He said he didn't like her, maybe he lied. He just seemed so sincere...and I believed it. I was such an idiot. I'm not good enough to have someone like him. I never was. What was I thinking? 

Vampires were real too! When did that happen? I thought that was all made up! That's why he left the night Vicki got....oh God. Did he attack Vicki? I cried harder at the thought of Stefan being a killer.

***

I woke in the morning and let a few more tears fall. I got ready for school, texting Bonnie and telling her I would drive myself. She didn't reply, which was fine because I didn't want to talk to anyone.
