In My Darkest Desires

The Mysterious Elena Gilbert and the Curious Dean Winchester

•Dean's point of view•
It's been a few days since I've heard from Elena. Maybe I should just give her a quick call. I don't want wanna come off as clingy; but I need to make sure that she's doing okay. *Dials Elena's number* Come on Elena, pick up please.
Finally she picks up on the fifth ring, "Hello my favorite little Winchester," Elena's voice hums through the phone line.
"Elena hey! It's good to hear your voice. I was staring to worry, you haven't texted in a few days..."
"Dean I've been busy. I'm sorry I haven't texted but I'm doing fine. Really. I've been busy catching up with everyone in Mystic Falls. You know I don't get the chance to come back very often."
"Right of course. I'm sure it's really nice to see all your friends and family. And I'm sure it's nice to see Damon as well. How's Jeremy?"
"Jeremy's great Dean. And listen you don't need to---"
"Oh shit. Look Elena I gotta call you back later. I'm dealing with a wendigo problem here. I gotta go." With that I hastily hang up the phone. Wow Dean way to play it cool! Now she's going to think you're a jealous lunatic! She's not even your damn girlfriend! She's still Stefan's. What the hells wrong you man. There's just something about this girl...
•Elena's point of view•
"See Jeremy, he's always calling and checking up on me. He looks at me like I'm this fragile little bird. He doesn't think I can take care of myself or else he's worried about Stefan....." I absently twirl my hair around my finger as my thoughts drift to Stefan.
"Well come on Elena. Don't you miss him?" Jeremy asks.
"Of course I miss Stefan, but I can handle myself. Dean doesn't understand that. I need room to breathe. I'm a free spirit."
My thoughts return to Stefan. Stefan Salvatore. Ah where to start. My old boyfriend, love of my life, friend, vampire. So many words I could use to describe him. Stefan and I met just over 2 years ago. He was mysterious and even a little dangerous. I fell for him instantly. But the Salvatore's don't come easily, don't even get me started on his brother Damon. A human and a vampire just don't mix very well. Stefan can't handle the human blood. Deep down he's still a monster. A monster I'm in love with.
Just a few months ago Stefan's rage came to a boiling point. He tried to kill me one night last fall. It still hurts to think about. The person I loved most, betrayed me. Luckily for me, the Winchesters happened to be in town that night. They'd heard Mystic Falls had a vampire problem and they'd came to check it out. Yeah, we definitely have a vampire problem to say the least. My ex boyfriends a vampire, his brothers a vampire, and one of my best friends are all vampires. Dean saved my life that night in the woods. If he hadn't have found me when he did, I would have been dead for sure. I owe him everything. But I couldn't let him kill Stefan, he was my boyfriend. I pleaded they spare his life. Somehow I got Dean to agree, he's got a soft spot for me.
So yeah, welcome to my life. My sadistic vampire ripper boyfriend is out there on the run piling up the body count. And I'm here traveling around with Dean Winchester. Dean's brother is out there tracking him down and I'm here with Dean babysitting/ protecting me from Stefan and any other "big bad vampires" as Dean would say. I know Dean worries about me, but honestly I'm fine. Of course I love Stefan but that's going to have to wait until we get him back and fix him.
"Elena. You still in there?" Jeremy's words bring me back to the present.
"Yeah, I'm here. Come on we've gotta go get ready. We're meeting everyone at the grill for my goodbye party in an hour. I've gotta look good to mess with Damon!" I say with a wink.
Jeremy just rolls his eyes and follows me to the car.
