Stefan

Damon's behind me as I make way down the hall towards the room Elena is staying in, I turn my heated stare on him and he backs away knowing that this has to be between me and his sister. I open the door and find her sleeping peacefully, Elena's makeup from the night before is smudged and her hair looks like a homeless person's. The smell of old alcohol is hanging in the air of the room, I bite my bottom lip and continue inside gently closing the door behind me.

"Elena wake up." My voice is hard and hits off the walls in the silent room making her stir, but Elena doesn't get up. "Lena, I need to talk to you." I say shaking her shoulder a little rough. Her beautiful brown eyes snap open and she glares at me, if looks could kill. "What?" "Why didn't you tell me about Silas Monroe and Liam Davis being your rapists?" She looks away and shrugs, "Why bother with the names of the people who fucked me against my will?" Slowly she turns her head back to me and furrows her eyebrows, Stefan how do you know their names?"

I sit on the bed with her and she moves over to let me have some room, she throws her hair up into a messy bun with the ponytail I get from her nightstand. "You told Damon that Silas looked like me." I say quietly not wanting to draw attention to the room especially this early in the morning. "Yeah well, he did." Her voice is hoarse, she's avoiding me eyes and fidgeting with her hands. "Elena look at me." She does so reluctantly, I sigh then clear my throat. "Silas Monroe is a fucking parasite from Manhattan and he's my brother. My Goddamn twin. Elena he targets girls that are vulnerable and promises them the fucking world with his modeling agency that he shares with his mother. Once the son of a bitch has his hooks in them they end up hurt and his little rich step brother Liam always saves his ass."

She bites her lip to keep in the sob that wants out and I want to kick my ass for bringing this up. How in the hell did she go from one fucked up brother to the next? We both ruined her. "I didn't know that you were related to him, I thought it was so insane that he looked like you. I remember you saying that you had a twin, but you never said his name saying that he was too pathetic to talk about. You told me that he was adopted after your mom died and that you stayed in foster care." I nod and pull her to me laying a soft kiss to the side of her head. She tenses for a second before relaxing into me.

I decided to explain how Silas and I reconnected after 9 years, we were only small kids when the whore's pimp killed her. A few months later Silas was being adopted out and I was left alone. "We met a few times when he found out about me still being in New York, we weren't ever on good terms and he's the reason I left. Silas was trying to pin a sex crime on me that he committed, I got out of it thanks to Liam's dad" Elena moves to look me in the eyes and I see her sympathy for me, its there just for a second then she falls back onto my chest and I continue.

"Silas' adoptive mom had married Liam's dad when Silas was 10 after his adoptive dad left them for another woman." Elena nods, "I remember meeting Malinda, she was a cold hearted bitch." I close my eyes and think back to the first time I saw my brother again. "I met Silas and Liam when I was 13 when his mom dropped the bomb about me living in Brooklyn with my 6th foster family. They were able to track me down through CPD to where I was living. Anyway, we hung out a few times but we were never close, and when I was about to turn 17 he tried to pin sexual assault on me, he got charged and they were able to get him off somehow. I was sick of the shit life I was in so Zack and I said fuck it and hit the road."

Elena leans into me and I stroke her chilled arm she sighs audibly looking up at me, "I remember that yall were headed for New Orleans when your car broke down outside of town." I smile at the memory, that was the day I met her and Damon, Zack and I had been driving for two days with a stolen car and money we had been saving from dealing. Their dad Mason was at the corner store 5 miles from where the car's radiator busted, he knew we were from out of town just by looking at us. After we told him about the car he just shook his head and told us to get in his truck. When we pulled into the broke down trailer park, Damon was outside under the hood of an old Chevy Camaro. Metallica was blaring on his radio and their mother Katherine was putting steaks on the grill. Elena was walking down the old cracked asphalt with Bonnie, her hair was in a ponytail and she had purple streaks running through it. Wearing a Slipknot t-shirt, ripped jeans and Converse. Her bloody knuckles and split lip were showing that she had been in a fight with someone. My girl was so fucking beautiful even then at just 13. I can still hear Katherine asking Lena if Tessa looked worse, Bonnie laughed and Elena smiled.

Mason and Katherine took Zack and I in, just two damn strangers. Two broke ass white trash teens from New York. They didn't care what brought us to them they just accepted us. The Pierce family adopted me as their own and I had never felt so welcomed and loved before. Southern hospitality and all. Soon enough Zack and I were working with Damon and had a trailer of our own to rent in that shitty park, Damon and I became best friends and I had to make myself look away from Elena. She drove me crazy, every thing about her has always touched every atom in my body.

My girl breaks me from my memories, "I mentioned you to him, I told Silas that he reminded me of my ex. He asked your name and I told him, I said that you were even from New York too. He said that it was uncanny, but he had never heard of you. I just brushed it off though, people around here always said that I could've been my mom's twin, so I just chalked it up to the same for yall."

I hold onto her and take deep breaths, what are the fucking chances of this really happening? Its insane, what a small fucked up world. "I'm going to kill him." I tell her honestly, what's more fucking time in a cage? I'll gladly go back as long as I can watch that sick bastard take his last breath, him and that little prick Liam. There is no telling how many women he has done this to, but the thing is Elena isn't just another woman. She'll forever be my woman, even if she and I belong to someone else. Tessa is nothing but a filler, I will never love her and truthfully we don't fuck. I know her history of men and drugs, for me its company, weed and a dick sucking. "His life doesn't matter to me, I want the fucker to rot."

Elena jumps up and grabs my face pulling me to her. "He's in prison, Liam is in prison they didn't get off the hook that time Stef. Caroline's dad was the prosecuting attorney, he made it to where I wasn't even in the papers. Bill Forbes found Silas and Liam's other victims. They came forward and they were sentenced, he's not getting out. He's locked away at Riker's." I look at her unsatisfied by what she's said to me, he needs to die. "I'll find a way to make them pay Elena." She kisses my neck and runs her hands through my hair, "No, you're going to let this go and enjoy your freedom." Her hot breath on my neck makes my cock twitch, I shift and she keeps her lips on my skin. If there was ever a way for me to calm down from anything it was her skin touching mine, it would always work. Later I would just go back to fucking up whoever had pissed me off and Elena was in the dark about it. It was shady and wrong to keep things from her, but it was for her own good. "Stefan I'm over it, I'm doing better than ever and that sick perv isn't the one who is winning here." I nod my head and grip my hands into fists, sure I'll let it go for now.

Elena

We sit in silence for a while before he pushes up from the head board we're leaning against and I wipe a tear that had escaped my eye. "Why didn't you really come back Stefan?" He stands up and walks to the door looking down at his feet Stefan shakes his head. "I had every intention on coming back to you Elena, but I knew that it wasn't what was best for either of us. We're different people now Elena, I was confused. I had only been out of prison for 24 hours and seeing you and Tessa both, it fucked with my head." He looks back up at me and I nod my head at him. "I guess I was just caught up in the emotional state of telling you, I was hoping that we were going to start over, but you're right we are different."

Stefan comes to me, standing by my side of the bed he looks down into my eyes, "It killed me to hear everything that you said and I was so sick about the baby. All of it just got to me at one time and I felt like I couldn't breath. I confronted Tessa and she told me things, about you and her fighting. Others said that you went wild after graduating high school." I close my eyes, so he knows. "Yeah, I made it to graduation then I started hanging out with Jeremey and Anna. That lead me to meeting Silas and it just got more messed up from there." I feel his hand on mine and I open my eyes to stare into his, "I'm sorry that I betrayed you Elena, I'm sorry that I believed Enzo about a clean job only to find myself taken from you. I swear if I could go back and change it I would, but I can't." I smile sadly at him, the love of my life. "I know you would Stefan, the only thing we can do is officially move on and become friends again." His beautiful smile graces me and I give him a brighter one, "Sounds good to me." "Well, now that I'm up I need to wash last night off of me and start preparing for the big meal. You are eating with us right?"

Of course Stefan smirks at me, "What do you think?" I giggle and release a few tears that he wipes away, "Let me shower as well and I'll help with cooking." We get up from the bed and I realize that I am naked, I blush as last night's event with him flash in my mind. I can see him thinking about it as well. "Also, I'm sorry about the whole thing with the little fuck boy." I shrug and tap my finger on his lip ring, "I ended up getting off so that's all that matters." I get into my robe and leave the room with a smile on my face. What am I doing?
