Elena sat in her dorm, on her bed, holding her breath. She couldn't believe what had just happened. Her head started to hurt and her lungs were pleading for air. Not begging... not yet. So she held it for another ten seconds, then finally let out her breath. Her lungs were screaming for air and she was light-headed. She finally, slowly breathed in. Her breath came fast, but she stopped it, forcing herself to breath deeply. She felt a surge in her stomach. Her lunch was coming up her throat... she ran and puked into the toilet. She felt better, but her stomach growled in protest. She was hungry again. How long could I go without food... she started to think to herself.

So the next few days, Bonnie screamed at her to eat, but Elena didn't answer. Meredith was calm like always, but tried to sneak some food into her. After three days of sitting there staring into blankness... Elena got up. Her stomach growled so loud that she thought that their neighbours could probably hear it. She went to the kitchen and stopped in front of the fridge. Her stomach growled angrily.

"Shut up and I'll give you some." Elena grumbled to her stomach, but then stumbled at the sudden kick in her stomach.

"What?" She whispered, holding her hand to her stomach. Could she be...? Is she...? No, she shook her head. She had never had sex before. Not with any guys at school, not with Stefan... or Damon. Damon. She opened the fridge to find it empty except for orange juice and a pepperoni stick. Wow Meredith and Bonnie really stocked the fridge, she thought sarcastically. She grabbed a foggy glass from one of the cream cupboards and filled it with the only liquid in the fridge. Then she went to sit back on her bed, eating and drinking slowly. She practically swallowed the pepperoni stick whole.

"She's eating!" Bonnie cried.

"Don't get your hopes up." Elena mumbled, thinking of Damon. She only said that she loved him or showed that she really loved him more than Stefan when he was dying. She just wanted one more sentence from his beautiful, devilish mouth. Just one more laugh. Just one more smirk. Just one more...

"Elena!" Bonnie interrupted her yet again.

"Elena!" She looked up and Bonnie was tugging her hand.

"Want to get something to eat? I'm starving!" Elena rolled her eyes and got up. Then she walked out of her dorm annoyed, grumbling, "You don't know the meaning of that."

They went for a walk, searching for somewhere to eat. Bonnie stopped in front of Starbucks.

"This is what you call dinner?" Elena asked Bonnie, who was eagerly fast-walking to the entrance. Elena sighed and followed her in. Bonnie started fumbling with her bracelet and twitching her hands. She couldn't stop moving.

"Ugh. Bonnie be patient!" Elena hissed. The customers in front of them moved to the side to get what they ordered and Bonnie took one huge, long step to the cashier.

"What can I-"

"I'll have an extra cream latte... with a pumpkin muffin. Two strawberry cake pops and... mmmmmm... a cheesecake brownie!" The cashier rapidly typed into the cash register.

"Is that all?" He asked, clearly upset by Bonnie cutting him off.

"Oh! Ummmm..." Bonnie seemed horrified by the idea. "No! Of course not!" The cashier rolled his brown eyes and Meredith stepped up in front of him. He suddenly straightened up and his expression turned nervous. He... was he... checking Meredith out? Elena thought to herself, smiling.

"Just a regular coffee." Meredith spoke quietly and calmly, like always. He nodded. Then Elena stepped up and took the attention off of Meredith in a flash. He searched Elena's body and his eyes stopped at her unbelievably golden hair. 

"She's single." She whispered pointing at Meredith waiting for her coffee.

"I am... not." She finished. She just didn't want a relationship right now, even though the cashier was cute. He nodded, secretly grinning.

"One..." Elena started, but Bonnie cut her off.

"Oh ya! I'm Bonnie! She's Meredith! And that's Elena!" She shouted, probably for the coffees... or just to let him know our names. He smiled.

"Bon-nie. Mere-dith and... E-le-na." He clucked his tongue on every part of their names.

"Got it!" The three girls... well, women now, waited for their food and drinks. They went to sit down once they got it. Meredith blushed while looking at her cup.

"What is it?" Elena asked, the corners of her mouth curling up. Meredith shakily turned her cup. It had 'Meredith' on it with a heart beside it and his number.

"Meredith!" Bonnie and Elena shrieked at the same time. Elena stopped mid-shriek. It felt like there was something ripping away her stomach... her heart, because sub-consciously she knew that she was thinking about Damon. Because she thought about him all of the time. But for once... it wasn't that that was bothering her.

"Guys..." She whispered and they leaned in closer. It all came back to her. Maybe she hadn't had sex with anyone, but she had had vampire-sex with Stefan and Damon. Could that get you pregnant? Only one way to find out!

"I might be pregnant."
