Kiss Me or Kill Me (Delena)

Chapter 1

3rd person POV
"Really Elena?" Stefan jokingly scolded as she dropped the spatula.

"I'm sorry!! I'm not made for the kitchen and you know that." Elena grabbed the nearest towel slapping his ass with it earning a wink from her boyfriend.

Elena and Stefan met in high school late sophomore year when he moved to Mystic Falls, Virginia. Now that they attended Whitmore College together, everyone knew they would be destined to eventually start a life together someday.

It was their third anniversary today. He had prepared her a perfect dinner with her unwanted help of course.

She wanted to surprise him with something special as well. She had snatched his phone when he was sleeping about a week ago. Sending a message to everyone in his phone, she told them she was throwing a party to celebrate at the Salvatore mansion.

"Elena?"

"Yeah?" She asked drying some silverware off. When she wasn't at Whitmore, she lived in the Salvatore house with him and her brother Jeremy who stayed with them in the Salvatore house in one of the seven bedrooms.

Elena didn't know why Stefan had chosen the second largest bedroom using the largest for storage, though, she never asked.

"Are you happy?" He asked not taking his eyes off the tomato he was cutting. She reached for his hand causing him to look at her.

"What kind of question is that Stefan? Of course I'm happy," she smiled leaning in placing a chaste kiss on his lips. His smile grew. "Did you see the news today? Another animal attack right outside of Whitmore. Ten people were killed," she changed her tone worried.

"Yeah I saw, but that animal won't get near you or me. I promise," he smiled kissing her forehead.

Elena couldn't shake it. She had felt so uneasy. Animal attacks had been scattering throughout all of Virginia for more than five years. Not in small quantities either. The least the animal would take would be ten or more.

"I'm serious Stefan this has set me on edge for years. I wanted to go to college out of state, but I couldn't leave Jer behind. Now that he finally graduated I can take you and him and get the hell out of this state," she shook her head.

Stefan reached for her hand pulling her in for a hug. Elena smiled. That was always the cure.

"How about we focus on us and how we've managed to deal with each other for this long," he chuckled. "Tell you what, I'll go get your gift," he smiled pecking her lips and jogging out of the room.

He was right. She never got the chance to focus on what she wanted in life. It was always going to school and working to provide for Jeremy. It was her turn for a change.

A small chime came from her pocket as she sat down on the couch.

Bon😈💋
Please tell me I can invite people to that party tomorrow? I'll bring your favorite liquor😉

Elena rolled her eyes.

Lena🦄💋
Course Bon but not too many. Stefan still doesn't know and I don't know how he'll react🤞🏼

Another chime.

Bon😈💋
And this is why I love you.

Elena put her phone on her lap as Stefan walked in the room with a small box. Her heart skipped a beat. No. She wasn't ready for this. Sitting down beside her, Stefan handed the intimidatingly tiny box.

He rolled his eyes knowing what she was thinking. "I know what you're thinking and it's not that I promise. I know you a lot better than you think you do," he smiled. Her heart settled.
