I sat in my bedroom, staring out the window, contemplating what to do. Its been 4 days since I've seen Stefan and I don't think he's seen anyone since the party at the Mayor's. I grab my phone to see if there was any messages from anyone: nothing. I sighed and sat up straight and went to the name which I thought I'd just leave alone.

ring ring ring ring...

"Sorry, Stefan cannot pick up the phone right now, please leave a message after the beep."

I ran my hands through my hair, while a sigh escaped my mouth.

Beep

"Hey, Stefan, its me, Kyra ... again. Listen can you please ring me back or just ring someone. I don't know where you've gone and I just want to know your okay. Just ... call me, so I know. It's been four days, Stefan. That's the longest I've not spoken to you and that scares me. I just --"

Beep

I look down at the floor, and then walk over to my window, open it and just stare out of it, letting my own thought take me with the wind.

"The sexy suds car wash is tomorrow. The football team and the band have committed. Well, not all the band. Just the ones who could pull off the bikini. I want, in your face, sexy. I mean, it's a fund raiser, for god's sake." Caroline rambles with the stress of the event getting to her.

"It's like nothing ever happened." I comment to Bonnie whose stood next to me. I don't know where Elena is but she's going to have fun with Caroline later on.

"She's in denial." Bonnie adds, as she was with Caroline earlier this morning.

"Hey," I hear from behind me, I turn around with Bonnie doing the same thing, to then have Stefan stood in front of me.

" Hey. You know, I gotta go. Be somewhere right now." Bonnie says, before walking away.

"Bon--" I start yet I know she won't come back, I turn back to Stefan, "Hi."

"I'm so sorry, I haven't called." He apologises.

"It's fine, I was just worried." I shrug my shoulders as if it didn't matter.

" I was dealing with Damon." He explains.

"And did you? Deal with Damon?" I ask, glad that he has and yet concerned on what he's done.

"Yes," He nods looking in my eyes to show he's telling the entire truth, "Yeah," He repeats.

"But for four days?" I tilt my head to the side in question.

"You have every right to be upset with me. But can I explain it all to you? Please?" He says with a tint of hope and yet a lot of sorrow.

"Sure, but have you spoken to Elena about it? You need to explain to her Stefan." I ask.

"I tried to. She didn't want to listen to everything I had to say," He explains, " So, please, let me explain it to you, so you know and then you can help Elena understand as well."

"Okay, when?"

"I gotta be home after school, but The Grill, around four o'clock?" He asks.

"Okay, that's fine."

""Thanks" He says gratefully.

"Stefan, where is Damon? He has some serious apologising to do?" Caroline says while walking over to the two of us.

"He gone, Caroline" Stefan says vaguely, making me look up to him with a confused face.

"When is he coming back?" Caroline asks, not getting the point.
