Sorry for abandoning this story. I appreciate all the reviews and feedback that I've received on it. If anyone is still interested I'm willing to finish this story and give it the ending that it deserves. Thank you for reading it.
Later on that evening Lexi had come over and crawled into bed with them lying beside Elena. She was recanting the events that happened after they had bailed from school and their problems for the day. "So Matt got suspended for a couple days." Lexi confirmed for them. "So did Stefan."
"Looks like we have the rest of the week off." Elena winked at Stefan making him grin.
"You guys need to go on a honeymoon." Lexi rolled her eyes at them. "No wait not unless I can come."
"That wouldn't be much of a honeymoon." Stefan said pointing out.
"Whatever." Lexi laughed. "So tell me all about New York. Are you two going?"
"I don't know." Elena shrugged. "We haven't decided yet." She said knowing Stefan hadn't received his acceptance letter yet.
"If you get your letter Stefan I wanna know." Lexi said. "We can open them together."
"You got yours?" Stefan asked confused.
"Yeah last week." Lexi said flipping through the TV channels.
Elena felt the tension in Stefan's body as it dawned on him Lexi had received hers already. "It will come babe." Elena said kissing his cheek.
"Hey what was Matt talking about when he said he found you in Tyler's bed Elena?" Lexi asked turning on her side to face them.
Elena rolled her eyes looking at Stefan. "I walked in on Stefan with another girl that night. It pissed me off so I got hammered and ended up passing out in Tyler's bed."
"What?" Stefan asked with disbelief. "Did Tyler try anything?"
"That's what you are worried about?" Elena asked with a hint of annoyance.
"Of course it is." He sat up. "Were you trying to screw Tyler that night?"
"I was with Matt you ass." She said.
"Answer me."
"No, I mean I don't know." She shook her head. "You were really drunk that night and had told me to meet you in your room. I told you no of course. But an hour or so of not seeing you I figured you were waiting."
"Boy were you wrong." Lexi mumbled earning a glare from Stefan.
"God Elena I'm sorry." Stefan sighed running his fingers through his hair. Elena didn't want to rehash the past with him or even remember those horrible times they went through. She took his hand running her finger over his ring drawing his attention to it.
"None of that matters now. We are here starting over and building a new story. Those were just like lost chapters."
He nodded settling back in to the bad. "Were you at least decent?" He asked making Elena giggle.
"Had everything on but my shoes when Matt found me." She confirmed kissing him. "Let it go."
"It's gone." He smiled against her lips.
"So anyways Bonnie is like having a get together at her house this weekend." Lexi said changing the tense subject. "Girls night only. Sorry Stefan."
"Fine by me." Stefan smiled kissing Elena. "We have all week to make up for lost time."
"Gross. Should I be worried about what's going on under these covers?"
"No!" Elena said slapping her leg over the covers. "I would never."
"Hmmmm but Stefan would." Lexi said making Elena eye her husband suspiciously. Especially after the conversation they just had. He wasn't the only one with a green eyed monster. Hers was alive and well.
"Oh come on you don't remember?" He asked. "That night we were super drunk and Damon put you in my bed with me and Lexi?" Elena still didn't respond. "You woke up and attacked me and Lexi woke up ready to claw her eyes out and she fled the room. The next morning you cussed my ass out saying how I was the biggest mistake of your life." He smiled at her as Elena closed her eyes wishing she could forget all the awful things she said to him. "You ran back to Matt."
"Enough I remember." She said. "I was awful."
Stefan pulled her closer to him. "You were not awful."
"She was pretty awful." Lexi laughed thinking about bitchy Elena.
"Not helping." Stefan said laying his head on Elena's chest so she could mindlessly run her fingers through his hair. "Elena I deserved all those awful things you said or did. I didn't exactly make your life a cake walk. I was cold and I wasn't really keeping it in my pants either."
"I don't want to talk about the girls you paraded in and out of your bedroom." Elena warned him.
Stefan sighed and grabbed her free hand bringing it to his lips to kiss. "Lexi tell her."
"They didn't mean anything to him." Lexi said honestly. "Most of them he didn't even kiss."
"I'm surprised his dick hasn't fallen off."
"I'm right here you know." Stefan grumbled.
"I don't exactly get to trash talk you with anyone else." Elena said taking the hand holding his and kissing it to show him she was only teasing.
"You two make me sick."
"You love us." Stefan said hitting her arm playfully. "Now woman are you staying the night? Because I plan on sleeping naked."
"You are disgusting." Lexi's face scrunched up in horror while Elena couldn't control her laughter.
"Keep laughing." Stefan grinned. "At ten the clothes come off around this joint."
"Be sure to make me a godmother when you finally get her pregnant." Lexi laughed getting up.
"Lexi stay." Elena said shoving Stefan off her.
"To see the goods? I'll pass. He's not my type."
"I'm sexy." Stefan laughed as Elena slapped him with a pillow.
"Seriously you can stay. Stefan can behave himself for a night."
"I actually told Tyler I'd catch a movie at his place tonight." Lexi said shyly.
"You like him?" Stefan asked removing the pillow from his face. Serious tone now. Both girls rolled their eyes at him.
"It's just for fun." Lexi shrugged.
"Lex." Stefan warned.
"Okay so maybe we have been hanging out as more than friends." She said shaking her head not believing she was having this conversation with him sober.
"Be careful." He said standing up to hug her. "I don't want to have to kill him for hurting you."
"He's been warned." She said hugging him back. "I'll call you later." She promised. "Elena girls night remember." She pointed at her.
"Got it. I want all the Tyler details."
"So many to tell." She winked before walking out.
"Tyler?" Stefan asked as he crawled back in bed.
"They would be cute together." Elena smiled.
"But Tyler? Really? He's kind of an ass."
"He's your friend."
"So! I can have jerks for friends, but that means my girls are off limits to them." He crossed his arms over his chest staring at the ceiling.
"Stefan come on don't pout." She tried not to laugh.
"Elena you don't know Tyler like I do."
"What are you so worried about?
"Lexi deserves someone who isn't going to leave her when the next piece of ass comes along."
Elena rolled on her side propping herself up on her elbow so she could face him. "Stefan she is going to date."
"I know." He sighed. "I just need her to date a nice boy who will take care of her when I'm not around."
"You sound like a father." Elena smiled at him while he rolled his eyes. "Listen babe Lexi is going to date and she is going to go through some jerks before she finds the one. Not everyone is as lucky as I am to find their perfect match at such a young age." Stefan cracked a smile pulling her on top of him.
"Perfect huh?" He said making her laugh. "I just worry that's all. I've been looking after Lexi for as long as I can remember."
"I love you for that." She said kissing him. "I love that you are so protective of her but you have to let her make mistakes every now and again. You can't protect her from everything."
"I can try."
"You can try." She assured. "But I don't want you to beat yourself up whenever the day comes that you can't save her."
"That day won't happen." He mumbled before kissing her. "Now shut up and get naked it's after ten." He said rolling them over so he was on top of her while Elena giggled at him.
