Chapter | 7

The storyline is gunna be messed up...just an fyi

I awoke to whispers, I couldn't focus on what they were saying in my drowsy state but I knew it was Stefan and Damon.

I sat up, opening my eyes and realised that I'd been placed onto a bed, Stefan and Damon sitting on the end, facing away from me as they talked.

As they heard me move, they looked over and gave me a small smile, one that didn't quite reach their eyes.

"What's wrong?" I asked, my mind still working slower as it woke up.

"It's..." Damon began but glanced over at Stefan who subtly shook his head.

"It's nothing, don't worry" he said with a sigh.

I glared at them but they didn't make any move to explain so I just huffed and laid back down, sinking further into the mattress as I buried my head into a pillow.

They seemed to have a silent argument which consisted of a lot of glaring and a few hand gestures but eventually Stefan sighed and Damon smirked in victory.

He walked over to the top of the bed and sat down next to me, running his hand through my messy hair.

"Before I tell you, know that we have it handled" he said and you sat back up and raised an eyebrow at him.

"Katerina, or Katherine as she goes by now, was meant to be in a tomb but when we went to look...she wasn't there" he finished, bracing himself for my answer.

I gritted my teeth and rubbed my eyes in frustration.

"And how exactly are you handling it" I asked, looking between them.

"Well, we're looking for her" Damon said sheepishly.

"Vampires may have better eyesight than humans but we can't see absolutely everything, otherwise there would be some 18+ imagines burnt into my mind by now" I deadpanned and Damon snorted in amusement as Stefan suppressed a smile.

"Look, we'll find her but we don't want you to get involved" Stefan said.

"Not get involved, not get involved. Stefan, I was involved the day I met her and I know you think you're protecting me or something but I can help, I'm not some weak little human like the last time you saw me, I'm a vampire and I'm just as old as you two" I ranted.

He sighed and walked over to sit the other side of me.

"I know that but you have to let us do this, let us make up for not protecting you before. Just...please let us do this on our own" he practically begged and I could feel my resolve melting as I looked into those gorgeous green eyes.

"Fine" I huffed and Damon rolled his eyes.

"His puppy dog eyes still work on you after all these years" he teased and I gave him a thump on the arm.

"Watch it soldier, don't be calling me soft. Besides, I'm pretty sure I could get both of you to do anything I want if I really tried" you told them as you hopped off the bed and raided the closet which, surprisingly had a few pairs of trousers that would fit along with underwear.

Although, I wasn't too surprised as they were both very attractive males and had needs.

"Do you mind if I wear these?" I asked, holding up a new set of clothes. They both shrugged as I was already walking into the bathroom to put them on.

I stripped my clothes off and was about to pull on the new set but decided I should probably have a shower first.

"I'm taking a shower" I yelled, knowing that they could hear me even if I whispered but wanting to be dramatic.

When I finished I put all my clothes on and was about to put the top on but decided that I'd rather wear one of Stefans or Damons, so walked out of the bathroom in trousers and a bra.

"Where are your clothes" I asked and they both looked up from talking as I dried the ends of my hair.

Both their mouths fell open as if they hadn't seen a woman topless before but Damon pointed down the hall and managed to utter a few words.

"Uh...second left"

Walking through the house I wondered into the room and pulled open the wardrobe.

I rummage through the bottom and froze as I saw a picture frame. I quickly pulled on a random shirt before picking up the picture frame and running my finger along the edge.

It was when I was still human, Damon and Stefan were pretending to fight over me, pulling each of my arms as I laughed. They had huge grins on their faces and were barely containing their laughter.

Afterwards, I stole Stefans hat and they both chased me through the fields but that was before Katerina told me my parents wanted me, compelling me to go home without them knowing what she was doing.

I didn't even realise that I was sitting on the bed or that silent tears were falling down my cheeks until I felt them being brushed away and I looked up to see Damon smiling sadly at me.

"We'll make up for lost time, we have forever after all" he comforted me and Stefan sat next to me and wrapped an arm around my waist as I leant my head on his shoulder.

Damon gently pried the picture from my grasp and put it onto his bedside table, presenting it proudly as opposed to buried at the bottom of the wardrobe, hiding his sadness where he hoped nobody would find it.
