Chapter Four

I slept soundly in the arms of the man I love. He held my head to his chest as my hands rest on his side. He woke up with a jump. Which woke me up from my deep slumber too. "Hey hey shh, you ok?" I looked up at him his eyes closed as he sighed. "Yea, bad dream. Go back to sleep" I nodded and traced circles on his chest.

Suddenly Stefan was out of bed. Out of the warmth of my arms. I gasped as he stated at me with frightened eyes. "Stefan what wrong?" I sat up in his bed.

"Nina?" Stefan looked like he had just seen a ghost.

"Come back to bed my love," I said trying to calm him.

"What are you doing?" Stefan asked. "Are you crazy? What's gotten into you?" I got up from the bed.

"What's wrong Stefan have I done something wrong?" I asked my eyes tearing up. Damon walked into the room staring at both of us like we were crazy.

"What are you doing in Stefan's bed?" Damon asked angrily.

"Damon, what is wrong with Stefan? I don't think he feels good" I said walking up to Stefan. I put my hands on his chest.

"Please calm down my love" I gave him my puppy dog eyes.

"Damon I think she's been compelled," Stefan said and I looked at him confused.

"WELL DUH!" Damon said yelled. I scoffed and went up to kiss my boyfriend when he pushed me to the ground. I gasped and once my body hit the ground I snapped out of the trance.

I looked up at Stefan and Damon standing over me. "What the hell happened?" They both look relieved. Stefan helped me up.

"That was the most uncomfortable thing in my life," Stefan said.

"It was uncomfortable to watch," Damon said cringing.

"Why am I at your house? What time is it?" I asked frantically confused out of my mind.

"It's Katherine," Damon said.

Stefan nodded "She compelled you to think...." he looked at Damon who stepped back.

"Not helping you there buddy" Stefan chuckled as Damon stepped out the room.

"She compelled you to think you loved me" My cheeks turned red with embarrassment.

"Please don't tell me I did anything I would regret," I said wincing at the idea.

"Umm... well you almost kissed-"

I screamed and acted out a puking scene. "Ew ew!"

"I'm gonna kill the bitch!" We heard Damon yell from down the stairs.

"Let's not speak about this ever... ever again" Stefan nodded.

"EVER!" We heard Damon again.

Stefan drove me home and Elena bombarded me with questions. I couldn't hide anything from her so I told her everything. She asked me why I didn't have any vervain on me but I couldn't figure that out.

Stefan gave me some when we left his house. Elena was more worried than ever. Katherine had taken me from my bed and brought me to Stefan's place. She didn't kill me. She played a game with me. She treated me like I was her puppet.

Aunt Jenna was having a barbecue and Damon was coming. No one besides me were looking forward to that.

Later that day everyone was playing charades while me and Elena were in the kitchen. Damon soon followed "Aunt Jenna is getting tipsy" he chuckled.

"Stop supplying her with alcohol," I said frowning.

"Well I want her to like me," he said putting his hands on either side of me trapping me against the counter.

"How's operation Lockwood?" I asked clearing my throat. Acting like this didn't make me uncomfortable.

"He's my new bff," he said into my ear.

"Ugh, Damon" Elena groaned not liking our closeness.

"Isn't this fun!" Aunt Jenna came in the kitchen and Damon let me go. I hurried past him and Jenna.

"Yes. Thank you so much for inviting me" Damon said smiling.

"Did I have a choice?" She said returning to normal.

"I know what you must think about me," he said smirking.

"No, you don't," she said frowning "You've never dated you. I have dated many yous" I chuckled from behind. As me and Elena watched eating the popcorn on the counter.

"Well I'm a work in progress," Damon said glaring at us. "Ooo those are fancy" Damon pointed at Jenna's fancy silver set.

"Thanks, it's my silver set" Damon smirked at me and Elena and winked.

Once we all sat the table Damon brought out a pie and a silver spoon stuck into it. He slid the pie over to Mason Lockwood and smiled "Why don't you start us off?" Damon asked.

All of us watched him closely and Mason hesitated before digging his hand into the pie ad grabbing and chunk. He plopped down on his plate and smiled licking his finger "oh oh gosh I'm so sorry" he said smiling "I'm an animal"

"I'm gonna go and see Stefan," Elena said to my ear. I nodded and she left with Caroline right behind her.
