Authors note: So, don't be totally mad at me but... I'm making it fast forward six months. I'm really sorry if you guys don't like this. I've had a horrible, and I mean HORRIBLE case of writers block. I think I really like this. Please respect my choice. (:
Caroline's POV
Tyler rubs my sixth month belly as I take in a deep breath. These past few months have been stressful... to say the least. My mom has mixed opinions on my pregnancy. She loves that I'm pregnant... she just hates the age. She wishes I would've been "more responsible."
But, I don't care. She still loves me and my child. Also, we found out the gender. We're having a boy. Tyler's so excited as am I. I wanted a girl but, as long as our baby was healthy, I would be fine. Lexi also had her baby girl. She looks just like Damon except with blonde hair.
Another event that happened and that shocked everyone was that... Stefan cheated on Elena. And if that's not bad enough... it was on her birthday. She's broken. Her eyes are always red from crying and from not getting sleep. If you don't remind her, she won't shower for days.
It's not even her fault. She's literally... broken. She trusted and loved Stefan so damn much. She wasn't prepared for the things that were gonna happen. At all. No one was.
Elenas POV
I wipe my tear stained cheeks as take a deep breath. It hurts my throat because of how much I've been crying. I put my knotty hair in a bun. I place the covers over my body, hoping I could get some sleep. I haven't been able to sleep. Ever since what happened with Stefan and Katherine.
*flashback*
It's my birthday. I don't really like my birthdays because I feel like the whole day is revolves around me. Anyway, Stefan told me what hotel he's at so, I'm getting into the Uber right now. I'm just wearing a pair of jeans with a hoodie. Something casual.
I don't need any presents. I mean... he already got me that necklace which was nice of him. That's another thing, though. I hate when people spend money on me. Money that he could've used on himself... he spent on me.
Anyway, I get out of the Uber, thanking him and smiling before shutting the door and making my up the stairs. He said he's staying in room 204. I look for his room as I notice how nice this hotel is. Usually the hotels around here are actual shit.
I bite my lip when I find the room. As I start walking towards the room, I hear something from inside of it. A giggle. Well, maybe he's watching tv?
I place my hands onto the handle of the cracked opened door, slowly pushing it open. He's sitting on a stool, looking up at who knows what.
I crack the door open a little more, seeing a girl. Her face is covered with her hair and I can't see her face. "What the..." I whisper to myself, tears forming in my eyes.
"Cmon, Stefan..." a perky voice says as she moves her hair out of her a face.
"Oh no." A tear rolls down my face as I see Katherine, hovering over him. She slowly leans in and presses her lips against his. I open the door, making Stefan jump and Katherine slowly pull away.
"What the hell, Stefan? You'd never cheat on me, huh?" I shout, causing Stefan to jump up and Katherine stands there on the side, smirking as she wraps a curly strand of hair around her finger. "Elena, it's-" he begins but I shake my head and cut him off.
"Not what it looks like?" I finish before storming out. I hear Stefan following me as I walk faster. "Elena, please wait." He calls out but I ignore him, trying to get out of this nightmare. "Elena." He finally says, making me turn around.
"What, Stefan? What?" I shout and he stops. "Please, Elena. You have to believe me." He begs and I scoff. "I don't have to believe you. You did this on yourself." I start and he sighs.
"You said that you loved me and you'd never hurt me. It's my birthday, you little fucker! I didn't even want anything but to see you." I tell him as he tries to step closer but I put my hands in the air, telling him to stop as I take a step back. "You know everything that's happened with Matt and I! How he emotionally damaged me and you- you-" I tell him before the tears start running down my face.
They're un-controllable. And I just couldn't stop. Through the blur of tears, I see Stefan standing there, trying to help but knows if he came near me, that I'd freak out on him. "You told me you'd never hurt me. You've made me so happy, Stefan. Why'd you- why'd you do this?" I ask as he looks down.
I scoff and shake my head once again before leaving.
*present*
"Hey, big sis." Jeremy says, opening the door. He sits on the edge of my bed as he sighs. "How're you feeling?" It's been 3-4 months since he cheated. But this pain... this pain is something I never felt. I never felt this when Matt would get drunk and hit me. Or when he would tell me he hated me.
"Eh, I don't really know." I tell him, staring at the tv screen which is the only light source in my room. He sighs before rubbing my leg up and down. "Elena, you need to get up; do something," he starts and I can't help but feel a little more heartbroken. More heartbroken because I'm causing pain in others lives.
"I know." I respond, my voice is hoarse as I nod up and down slowly. As Jeremy opens his mouth to say something, Bonnie walks in. "Hey, E." She smiles, standing at the door. "So, I don't really care if you want to or not-" she starts but Jeremy interrupts her.
"Babe, I don't think right now is the best time." He says and she shakes her head. "Shhhh. Okay, there's a dinner tomorrow night. And you, my friend are coming." She smiles as she opens the curtains to my window. I squint my eyes at the bright light that I haven't bothered to look at in a while.
"No, Bonnie." I groan, pulling the blankets over my body. "Yes, Elena. You have to go out there again. With all due respect; you can't just spend the rest of your life moping around." She tells me, a small giggle following it. "Yes, actually I can." I assure her as she rolls her eyes.
"Gilbert, I don't wanna hear it. You're coming with us whether you like it or not.
