Now And Then - Stefan Salvatore (currently editing)

1.77 12 Stakes -> 12 Chances

Next day. At Ric's.

There was a knock on the door. Damon went to open it. 

Damon "Morning, sunshine."

50 bucks it's Elena.

I was sitting on the edge of Ric's bed. 

Ric sat down next to me "I'm sorry about yesterday , Adelaide"

I smiled "It's okay, Ric. It wasn't you.  Besides, you couldn't have made much damage with a knife"

He chuckled. 

Damon walked back to us. 

Ric stood up and walked to the miter saw. 

Damon "Walking down the stairs, opening the front door, and she's gone."

Alaric turned the saw on, lowered the saw and began to cut the sign. 

Damon threw me a bag. 

I looked confused "the hell?"

Damon "Muffins. For you"

I smiled "thanks"

Ric yelled "they were for me!"

Me "i'll leave you one! ....Maybe"

The boys were creating stakes from the Wickery Bridge sign. 

Stefan looked at one of the stakes " This needs to have a sharper point."

He handed the stake to Damon.

Damon "I got it."

Stefan " We finally have our own stakes to kill an Original. I'm not gonna miss because you can't whittle."

Damon snapped " I said I got it. Stop micromanaging."

Then he sharpened the point of the stake. 

Alaric put on his jacket "Looks like you guys have got this under control. I'm gonna call the Sheriff."

My jaw dropped "Ric?"

Ric" I want to turn myself in."

Damon shook his head " No you don't."
