Bloodlust → Stefan Salvatore [1]

Unpleasantville

Last Night...

     Elena beats the volume button as the noise from the tv gets even louder.

     "Do you mind?" I ask. She looks at me with a slight smirk then turns away. I turn back to Stefan, his smile giving me warmth. I laugh.

     "As I was saying, do you have any idea who tried to run me off the road?" He shrugs.

     "Honestly, I don't." The doorbell rings and I walk over. I open the door to see the pizza delivery guy. He hands me the box.
     "Thanks." He nods.
     "How much again."
     "Ten dollars." I reach into my pocket and pull out a ten dollar bill. I hand it to him then shut the door. I set the pizza on the counter. Stefan slides a bottle across the counter, I give him a confused look.
     "More vervain, just incase." I nod with a grin.
     "I'm actually gonna head out." I walk over and hug him.
     "Okay, I'll see you tomorrow, at the dance." Stefan walks up to the front door and out. I see the pizza man in the driveway, staring at me. He glances over at Elena coming up behind me.
     "Shut the door, its cold." She slams the door and walks back to the couch.

Next Day...

     Elena holds the outfit in my face. She has a happy smile painted across her face. She opens her mouth to speak.
     "Okay this one is nice too." She picks up the next outfit and holds it in her other hand.
     "Okay, Twiggy or Sexy Hippie?" I shake my head and shrug. She tilts her head to the side questioning me.
     "They both really compliment your skin tone." She rolls her eyes.
     "I'll get them both." She announced as she places them back down on the chair. She slides over next to me.
     "I spiked some vervain in Jenna's perfume." I laugh.
     "I put some in the flask o found in Jer's room." She returns another giggle.

     Elena and I walk outside. She looks through her purse.
     "I left my car keys inside." I snort. "I'll go get them, meet you at Stefan's?" I nod as she walks inside. I walk to the car, and I get a call. It's from an unknown number.
     "Hello?" I hear the person breathing on the other line.
"Blake Gilbert..." I pull my car keys out from my pocket. "You hit me with your car." I stop, it feels like I'm frozen in time.
"You got away, but this time you won't." I turn around to see a man walking up to me. He has a good up, it's unclear who he is. I get in my car, after then anything I've ever done, and I start it.
"Not today, idiot." I hang up and drive away.

I walk into Stefan's room. He turns and looks at me, he can tell something is wrong.
"Blake what's wrong?"
"I just... I..." I can't think straight, I hug Stefan. He rests his hand on the back of my head. I whisper in his ear.
"He followed me..." Stefan pulls back. He goes to his desk behind him and pulls something out. He places it in my hand.
"The Gilbert Watch?" I say. He closes my fingers around it.
"Bring it with you tonight, to the dance." I nod and slide it into my pocket.
"I just wanted to tell you this, I have to eat ready for the dance." Stefan kisses me on the forehead.
"I'll see you there."
