03. Friday Night Bites

Aria got out of the backseat in Bonnie's car and turned to Elena, "Listen I'm not saying don't date the guy, because you know I'm all for team Stelena, all I'm saying is take it slow".

"Aria you are the one who said to go for it" Elena reminded.

"And now I'm saying you should take it slow" Aria retorted.

Elena narrowed her eyes at Aria, "Why the about-face?".

Aria turned her face away from Elena, "What about face?".

Bonnie stepped out of the drivers side of her car, "Look Elena, maybe you should listen to Aria, you're single for the first time in your entire high school career, it's the perfect time to play the field". 

"Oh, because I'm so that girl" Elena teased, "Seriously you both, what are you not saying?".

"It's stupid" Aria mumbled, looking down at the grass, knowing Elena wasn't going to believe her.

Elena grabbed Aria's hand and forced her to face her, "Aria".

"What?" Aria asked, looking everywhere except at Elena.

"Spit it out" Elena demanded.

Aria sighed, "Okay, so I accidentally touched Stefan last night when I was giving him your number, and I got this really bad feeling from him".

Elena looked at Aria in confusion, "Is that it?".

Aria threw her hands up in frustration, "No that's not it Elena, because I wasn't the only one who got the bad feeling".

Elena looked at Aria confused, "What?".

"She's talking about me" Bonnie said.

"So you also touched Stefan and got a bad feeling?" Elena asked Bonnie.

"Not exactly" Bonnie clarified.

"What?" Elena asked, looking between Bonnie and Aria in confusion, "Guys spill it, now".

"Look, when Aria touched Stefan, I felt the same feeling Aria felt, it was a bad, bad feeling Elena" Bonnie explained.

"What, so you guys can sense each other's emotions now?" Elena asked the two girls.

"No, not at all" Aria said, "When I touch Stefan, I was handing Bonnie her pen back and our fingers touched the same time as I accidently touched Stefan's hand, the feeling that vibrated through me, vibrated through Bonnie as well, I'm guessing because of the whole witch thing Grams told us about".

Elena looked between Aria and Bonnie in slight shock, "You guys are actually buying the whole witch thing?".

"Look we don't know what's happening to us Elena, we don't know if we are witches or if we are just paranoid" Aria said, frustrated with the fact that Elena was taking her so lightly, "All we know is that right now, we are expressing our concerns about our best friend's new boyfriend".

"Did you get the same feeling with Damon?" Elena asked.

"Seriously?" an annoyed Aria asked, "Again with Damon?".
