So, I'm Caroline?

Chapter 2 - Founder Parties and Mommy-Daughter Talk

Caroline's Home

I woke up alone the next morning but I had my blanket tucked in around me, it was a surprisingly sweet gesture really. I rub my eyes to clear my vision as I get out of bed while somewhat stumbling into the bathroom for a shower.

It's weird to feel lonely when I've never really had many friends to begin with. I'm happy I can't be compelled though, that'd just suck.

When I come back to my room dressed in a pair of jeans and a tank top. Damon is sitting on my bed. I glance at him for a moment then I move to sit beside him. Not saying anything again.

"The founders party is tonight. Are you going?" Damon asks while glancing at me under his lashes.

I frown for a bit and shrug "probably not, besides your brother will vervain whomever you bring because he expects you to try to drain them and Emily will light the crystal up."

"Oh." He says then turns to look at me again and says "then I guess I will have to make sure I don't take the crystal."

I nod "smart choice."

"You are still coming with me." Damon says sharply and I turn to him and frown.

"No." I say flatly and I turn away from him "you should dig up your dads grave though. Em's book can get you into the tomb."

As I go to stand up he grabs my hand and yanks me harshly to him, my breathing momentarily stops as he pulls me to him on the bed.

"You're going with me Caroline, do you understand?" Damon says sternly as he looks into my eyes watching my reaction.

I glare back harshly at him as I use my other hand to make him let go of me.

"Let me go Damon" I tell him sharply as he grabs my other arm, pulling me even closer to him. I'm practically kneeling beside him by the foot of the bed now and I flush in frustration.

"No" Damon says gently "I just. . You keep me calm-ish."

I look away from him irritated "me being there won't make a difference."I tell him.

"I want you there" he snaps at me.

"I'm not going to just let you try to kill me." I snap back aggressively. That's what he tried to do during the show to her after the party.

Not that I could stop him if he really wanted to hurt me, at least he can't turn me into a puppet.

"I won't." He snaps angrily back as he pulls me up with him as he stands, he releases me and starts pacing. "I won't kill you. Fuck, I won't even bite you unless you ask of course."

"I'm not going to be part of a game Damon." I tell him flatly "and so help me god if you and your brother get into a fucking fight I will drag you both out of that stupid party by your ears, fuck the fact that you're vamps."

Damon runs his hands through his hair "Fuck, thats hot" I hear him mumble to himself but choose not to comment. Guys are so fucking weird man.

"So you'll go then" he says happily.

"Your mood swings make me cranky." I tell him blandly with a frown and then I sigh "Fine, but if you try to hurt me I'll break your nose." I warn him.

He smiles brightly "Great! I won't hurt you! Although I'd love to see you kick Stefan's ass!" He says thrilled. I raise an eyebrow as he leaves through my window. What a fucking weirdo.

He turns back to me and he then he vamps, his face in my neck again. "What the fuck are you doing Damon?" I ask him sharply as he pulls back and I see his vampire face out.
