Merciless - TVD [1]

The following day, Mallory surprisingly decided to go to school. Jeremy and Mallory stood at Jeremy's locker, talking about the night before, "So what happened after you left last night?" Jeremy asked Mallory curiously, "Elena said you were coming by, but you never did. Did you kill Damon?"

Mallory couldn't help but laugh at Jeremy, "No, I did not, actually," She informed him, "I was planning to, but for the first time in my whole life since I've become a vampire, I didn't have the guts to do it. Plus, after my run in with him, I spent the night looking through some old journals."

"Why do you journal?" Jeremy asked Mallory curiously, "Elena does it, too, but I can't seem to figure out why."

"Well, I do it because I don't want to forget anything," She began to explain, "Memories are important to me and after being around as long as I have, there is a lot of things you have to remember."

"Ooh, maybe I could do a history report on one." Jeremy jokingly commented, causing Mallory to playfully roll her eyes at him.

"Definitely not," Mallory replied with a smile on her face, "What would you title it? The Vampire Diaries?"

"Haha, very funny," Jeremy commented before letting out a sigh, "Honestly, after all the stuff that has been going on, I wish that there just one night where we could act like normal teenagers. We haven't been able to do that in a while."

"You're dating a vampire, Jer. I don't think it's possible to be normal teenagers," She told him, only to notice the disappointed look on his face, "But we sure as Hell can try."

Jeremy immediately smiled at Mallory's comment. The school bell ended up ringing and Mallory quickly kissed Jeremy on the cheek, bidding her goodbye before heading to class.

Mallory and Stefan arrived back home from school to find Damon pouring himself a drink, "Care for one?" He asked his two younger siblings and Mallory immediately nodded her head.

Damon poured himself and Mallory a glass of blood before he handed Mallory hers. Damon then turned to Stefan, "Stefan?" He asked, referring to if he wanted some blood.

"No, thank you," Stefan replied, "I'm not hungry, just ate."

"Are you worried that one day, all the forest animals are gonna band together and fight back? " Damon questioned and Mallory couldn't help but laugh, "I mean, surely they talk."

"I'm just happy that's a blood bag and not a sorority girl supplying your dinner," Stefan replied, clearly not bothered by Damon's comment.

"I like this. You, walking on eggs shells around me because you think I'm gonna explode. And at the same time, you're watching over Mallory, making sure she doesn't join me on the dark side like she's bound to do sooner or later. Very suspenseful," Damon smirked at Stefan, "Is Elena worried too? I bet I'm your every conversation."
