Elena.


"You are a real idiot, Jeremy." Ric spoke from the kitchen and I watched as Jeremy sighed and ran his hands over his face, probably going over his actions from earlier. "You know that, right?" Alaric spoke sarcastically and I watched from the couch as Jeremy grabbed a fist of his hair and yanked on it slightly.

"Yes! I know that Alaric, i'm a stupid idiot who should just keep his mouth shut." Jeremy spoke with a growl and I frowned at how defensive he was being. "Yes I know I messed up, yes I know i'm probably never going to get her back now. Yes I know i'm the worst boyfriend imaginable." Jeremy spoke with a snarl and I frowned again.

My phone buzzed and I glanced at it slightly, seeing Stefan's name flash on my screen. I looked back up at Jeremy who had his face in his hands. I stood up from the couch and walked the the bottom of the stairs, unlocking my phone and reading the messages from Stefan.

hey, could you look for luna please? shes run off xx

- elena

damon and i looked for her everywhere we could think of. shes gone. x

-stefan.

I frowned at his message, wondering where the hell she could have gone. Matt was keeping an eye on the Grill for us and Stefan and Damon were looking everywhere for her. "Where are you, Luna?" I whispered to myself, closing my eyes as I tried to think of anywhere she could have gone to hide out.

Just as I was about to walk back into the kitchen to inform Alaric of the situation the door was knocked on. I frowned at this. Everyone would have just walked in, why did this person knock. I walked to the door and opened, it my jaw dropping when my eyes landed on the slight smirk on the person's face.

"Hello." Kol spoke with a polite tone and I kept my strong stance, attempting to look slightly intimidating. "Calm down, Elena. I'm not here to hurt you." His polite tone stayed and I looked him over with caution. "I hear poor Luna has gone missing." He spoke and it clicked. He had her! Kol's smirk grew at my realisation.

"What do you want?" I asked, prepared to give him anything to get one of my best friends back. He crossed his arms over his chest and looked over to door, silently referring to the invisible barrier, refusing to allow him into the house. "No." I answered. I would give anything to save Luna. Almost anything. I would not allow Kol to enter my house.

He pouted at this. "At least hear out my reasoning." He spoke and I narrowed my eyes at him as I nodded, feeling someone stand beside me. I glanced to my side to see Jeremy had joined me at the door and Kol stared at Jeremy. "You." Kol stated, pointing his finger at Jeremy. I stood in front of my little brother protectively.

Before Jeremy or I could speak, Kol had continued. "You hurt Luna." The black veins below Kol's eyes began to grow, making him look even more intimidating. "She came to me crying because of you." Kol began to pace across our porch and my face fell. Luna had gone to him? Why would she even do that? She knows that his family wanted me. She would be used as a bargaining chip.

"Now, for my reasoning." Kol spoke and he stopped pacing across out porch and stood directly in front of Jeremy, as close as the border would let him stand. "Simply invite me in so I can kill him." Kol spoke and nodded his head towards Jeremy.

I watched as Elena's face fell and Jeremy looked panicked at my words. I narrowed my eyes at the two and slammed my hand against the anti-vampire border, feeling my vampire face reveal itself, making Elena step back in terror as Jeremy gulped visibly at my actions. "LET ME IN!" I yelled as the door was shut in my face.

I began to pace up and down again, trying to find a way to coax them out when my phone buzzed in my pocket. I groaned slightly and dropped the newspaper I was holding so I could slip my hand into my pocket, pulling it out and unlocking it so I could read the messages.

hi its luna on the phone you gave me.. where are you?

I growled slightly at this, remembering how I had told her to shower and I would talk to her when she was finished. I thought she would have taken longer. "This isn't over." I yelled, slamming my hands against the wall of the house before speeding back to my, or should I say Nik's, house.

I entered the house with a slam of the door, ignoring th questioning looks from Elijah and the maids and sped straight up to my room where I had left Luna to shower in the en suite. "Sorry, I was grabbing someth-" I stopped in the middle of my sentence as I turned to see her dressed in on of my t-shirts.

"Hi.." She smiled shyly at me and I stared at her, wearing my shirt. I felt my teeth bite into my lip at how good she looked. "Uhm, sorry I didn't have anything to wear and I didn't really want to go out and ask Rebekah or go to the room where Klaus kept me bec-" I stopped her in the middle of her word I sped up to her, surprising her.

I watched carefully as she flinched slightly, attempting to step back. I kept my eyes on her as she glanced behind her, noticing the bed was blocking her from moving any further away. I raised my hand to her face and stroked the back of my fingers across her cheek. She looked at my fingers and then me as I did so. A blush raised on her cheeks, feeling warm against my fingers. I stopped moving my fingers as I simply stared at her. I noticed as she glanced down to my lips before looking straight back up to my eyes.

I leaned forward slightly before realising she was with Jeremy. As much as I wanted to, I knew she would feel guilty for cheating on him, even if they were undeclared broken up. I stepped back and she looked at me with confusion dancing through her eyes. I took grip of one of her hands and led her to the bed, allowing her to sit before I did. "Are you alright?" I asked carefully.

She smiled at my wording and nodded slightly, keeping her gaze on me. I glanced down at our hands to see she was still holding onto my hands. I moved my hand slightly and ran my thumb across the back of her hand, looking back up at her to see she was looking down at our hands. I listened to her heartbeat, hearing it speed up by the second.

It stopped for a second before beating faster than before as she looked up at me. I glanced at her lips, seeing her mouth slightly open, before looking back into her brown eyes. "Fuck it." I muttered to myself and before she spoke again I reached forwards placing my hands on both sides of her face and pulling her to me, pressing my lips against her own.

I noticed her eyes flutter closed as her hands raised, gripping onto my wrists, simply holding them, not moving them or pulling away. I closed my eyes at her actions and focused on our lips. She was softly kissing back and I moved one of my hands to her lower back, supporting her as I kissed her harder.

She moved her arms around my neck as my other hand moved and rested on her waist. I ran my tongue across her bottom lip and she simply kept her mouth shut. It didn't bother me though, knowing she wasn't ready for that. I listened to her heartbeat, hearing it beating as fast as possible.

I felt her pull away and rest her forehead against my own as she breathed out softly and quickly. I opened my eyes to see her still shut tightly as her fingers played with the bottom of my hair. I looked over her face, looking for any signs of regret, smiling to myself after seeing none. "Well that was something." I whispered to her and her brown eyes opened, a blush rising on her cheeks at my words.


"Yes, it was."
