Chapter Ten – Lost Girls Part Two

Elena and Stefan had been walking around the old Salvatore grounds where he was explaining to Elena about his and Damon's past and the vampire who had turned them; Katherine Pierce. Elena was now contemplating everything as she and Stefan walked back to her car. This was just so much for her to take in.

She had questioned whether he had ever compelled her before, but the necklace that she had had vervain in it and was toxic to vampires and could protect her from their mind control.

Elena shook her head in dismay as she realised that Willow had known everything the whole time and she told Stefan, "I can't believe that Willow knew about this the entire time and she never said anything. I should have known that she would lie even to her best friend." Anger was laced in her voice.

Stefan didn't like the way she was talking about Willow, especially now that she was gone and defended her, "No, she was just trying to protect her. And like I said, knowing this is dangerous. She wanted to keep you out of this so that you wouldn't get hurt."

Elena leaned back on her car and glared at Stefan and mumbled, "How is not telling me protecting me?"

Stefan sighed, "She cared about you a lot, she only wanted you safe."

Elena sighed, but then she realised what he had said, "'Cared'? What do you mean cared?"

Remorse fell over Stefan's face and he looked down to the ground avoiding Elena's gaze, "Um, Damon he got to her."

Elena was no longer leaning against her car and she was standing up right and her body was tense with worry and fear, "What does that mean?" She questioned in a shaky voice, afraid for the worst.

He breathed outwards and looked back at her and told her, "It means that Willow is... dead."

Elena gasped and her hand flew to her mouth as she let out a strangled sob. Willow was... Oh, God! No it couldn't be. Elena swallowed down another sob and croaked, "He killed her?"

Stefan nodded solemnly, "I am so sorry, Elena I never wanted any of this to happen. Not to you, not Willow."

Elena's watery eyes snapped to Stefan and yelled, "Then why are you giving him the ring? He doesn't deserve it! He killed my best friend!" And then the tears streamed down her face.

Stefan placed comforting hands on her shoulders and told her, "I know, but he will hurt more people. Willow wouldn't want that."

Elena nodded with tears still rolling down her cheeks, "What am I suppose to tell Bonnie? Or Tyler? Or her father?" Not that he would care much.

"We'll think of something."

"This is Willow!" She screeched. "We can't just make up a lie about her..."

Stefan sighed loudly, understanding her pain, "Why don't I take you home and we can talk?" He suggested in a kind voice.

She immediately shook her head and got in her car and drove away, with tears still streaming down her face.

In the Salvatore Boarding House music was blaring loudly through the stereo speakers and Vicki was dancing around the room, while Damon was leaning against the dining table drinking a bottle of alcohol and Willow was lounging in one of the chairs. She didn't like being stuck indoors, it was driving her crazy. Plus she was in desperate need of a smoke, but apparently Damon had left them at the cemetery and she assumed along with her phone. Though Willow had to admit he did look really hot, showing his chest off like that. How the hell did he get a body lie that? (A/N the ultimate question)
