A Dream Of Flying

Chapter 11

As they were in the middle of the kiss Selena suddenly pulled away from him and pushed him further away from her. Her eyes widened looking at him. He looked clueless.

''What's wrong Selena?'' he asked her instantly. She looked around her, she looked at her dress and Stefan and Elena who were kissing and dancing.

''I can't do this Zac, I'm sorry.''

''Why not?''

''It's wrong Zac.''

''How? Please tell me and I'll fix it.'' He tried to grab her hand but she wouldn't let him.

''Well you can't fix it. Your older then me..it just doesn't feel right.''

He rolled his eyes at her. ''Nothing is right with you, yes your nearly 18 and I'm 23 years old..so what!'' She shook her head in disagreement about to walk off but he grabbed her arm. ''I saved you from Kol.'' He pulled her near him and whispered it into her ear. ''I got rid of all the hell in your life.''

She suddenly slapped him across the face. ''And I never asked you!'' She strided away from him.

''But you thanked me!'' he yelled after her and noticed Elena who was staring at him suprised, Stefan too. 

-With Selena-

She walked out of the club, and went somewhere Elena couldn't couldn't find her. She dialled a number quickly into her phone, the number she last expected to ever call. ''Hello?'' the other line said.

''Hi, Jake? It's Selena.''

''Where are you? Are you okay?'' he asked, his voice full of concern which felt kind of nice for a change to Selena.

''I'm not really okay, could you pick me up?'' she asked hopeful.

''Of course, tell me where you are and I'll come get you.'' She told him the address and moments later his car parked outside the club. He opened the car door and walked towards her and wrapped his arms around her gently. He led her to the car and opened the dar for her so she was in the frontseat. ''So you wanna tell me what happened?'' he said to her as he had gotten into the passenger seat and started the engine.

''I don't wanna talk about it, it's complicated..''

''You don't want to talk about it to me..'' Jake mumbled.

Instantly, she hissed .''Jake, I wouldn't have called you if it was still like that. It means alot that you could come here and pick me up. I just don't want to talk about it, to anyone..not even Elena.''

He nodded, half smiling. ''You wanna go home?''

''Yes, that would be nice..but I don't care as long as it's anywhere but here.''

''Home it is.'' He laughed and drove off.

Kol stood around the corner watching as Selena and Jake went into the house. His eyes were full of fury and threw his cigarette on the ground, stepping on it to turn it off and walked away. 

He went into the dark side of the town, where he mostly hung out at and Jake when they were friends. He knocked on a door, finding a man at the same height as him. He had black hair and wore mostly black and he had a small smirk on his face. ''Kol, let me guess to stir up some trouble again..''

''I need a favor man..'' Kol said.

''Favor comes with a price.''

''I know that. It's always like that with you..''

''Okay let's make a deal ..'' the man started. '' I do you a favor and you do me a favor. How's that?'' he asked, knowing that the answer would be yes.

''Sure, whatever. Just as long as you do it.'' Kol smirked and they shook hands.
