Third chappie! YAY! Enjoy and yet again I remind you to please review.
Stefan walked into the lounge, looking over to find Damon and Abigail sitting together. He stared at the both of them, who were in deep conversation about something. Damon would comment on something and Abigail would nod occasionally.
They both looked up when Stefan sat down. "So what seems to be the problem?"
Abigail began. "Katherine just gave us a little visit."
Stefan was shocked. "When? How? What happened?" His voice rose at every word. He began pacing again. "How could this have happened? How did she know you were here?"
"Do you really need me to answer that?" Abigail asked sarcastically. She got up from her seat next to Damon and stood in front of Stefan before he could take another step. "We will fix this." She smiled at him, trying to reassure him slightly.
"It's just she was here and I didn't even know it. I..."
Abigail cut him off. "Where's bite?"
Damon laughed at the comment. "Did I mention that I love this woman?"
"I thought you hated me?" Abigail grinned. "Now where is she?"
Stefan looked her in the eye then ran off to the garden.
"STEFAN!" Abigail called after but he was already gone. She sighed then followed after him.
"Wait for me." Damon got up, poured himself a drink, then after chugging it down ran after the both of them.
Stefan stood in the middle of the garden, where Elena sat on the ground below him, looking up at him while he spoke to her. Abigail was only a few feet behind but it was noticeable to Damon that she had done that on purpose. He knew that she wouldn't be able to be too close to Elena for a while. But at least she had been able to talk to him and after what had happened last time he knew that was a start. She would eventually be able to go back to the person she was when they had first met, even though he didn't like that person as much as the one she was now.
Stefan nodded to her to show that Elena was fine and Abigail turned and walked back towards Damon.
"Remember what it used to like?" She stopped beside him and crossed her arms. "We were all lovey dovey at one stage."
Damon grinned. He did remember what it had been like. It was something that he would never forget but it was something that he had ruined and he knew he would never fully forgiven himself for breaking Abigail's heart.
"But." Abigail continued. "I do believe you torn my heart out." She said it so calmly, without any emotion behind it. Damon looked over at her and she grabbed him by the neck before he could even move to block her.
"You got faster." He half chocked, half laughed as she pushed tighter on his windpipe. "You're hurting me...Abigail." He coughed.
"That's the point. Did you ever think about how it felt for me? You and Stefan ruined my life but you! You were the one who crushed me!" She pushed even tighter before letting go of her grip and throwing him to the ground.
Stefan heard the thump and came over. "What's going on here?" He stood in front of his brother, protectively, eyes on Abigail as she took a step back.
"Just remembering old times, that's all." Abigail smiled. She took another step back then ran back into the house, the door slamming behind her.
"What the hell was that about?" Stefan asked as he helped Damon up.
Damon rubbed at his throat. "Nothing, just remembering old times, like she said." He rubbed at his neck again. "Very painful old times! God! When did she get so strong?"
Stefan laughed at this. "She has always been strong but she must be feeding on human blood again."
"Well good thing I never stopped!" He went to chase after her but Stefan grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back.
"If you could patch things up with her then she might actually help." Stefan looked as if he was almost pleading.
"Sorry brother but I think she just showed she is a little past sorry."
Stefan glared at Damon.
"But...but? FINE! But it lies on your head." He raced off towards the house to find Abigail sitting in the lounge room. She had her head down and from what Damon could tell, she was actually crying.
"Abigail?" He whispered.
She glanced up and wiped the tears away from her face. "What do you want?"
"Well seeing you're such a bitch I don't know why I'm bothering with this!" He went to turn away.
"Always such the charmer." Abigail laughed.
He turned back and smiled at her. "And you're always going to be my psycho." He sat down next to her on the lounge and she laid her head on his shoulder.
"What I did was wrong. I wasn't thinking. I'm..."
"Don't worry you don't have to say the s word. I know you never will." She looked up at him, tears in her eyes. It was the most delicate and soft that Damon had ever seen her. "You did however dump me for my insane best friend."
Damon sighed. "I was obsessed with her."
"How do we know that you aren't anymore and that you won't help her if she bats an eyelash at you?"
"Because Katherine's a bitch, even more than you are."
Abigail smiled at that.
"Don't worry I learnt my lesson. She only came back for her Steffy anyway. She never loved me."
"Tried to tell you." Abigail sighed and fell back onto the lounge. Damon turned to face her. She was always so beautiful to him and she did remind him a bit of himself, which was a good thing. He leaned in to kiss her, his lips inches away from hers. Abigail stayed still, unsure of what to do but soon found herself leaning forward and kissing him back.
"I can't do this again." She pushed him back, unaware of her own strength and pushing him off the lounge and onto the other side of the room. Damon lay there, shocked. She got up from the lounge and went to walk away but Damon raced up beside her.
"Abigail..." He began but she cut him off.
"You know how this ends just as well as I do. Remember how we met? I am no better than Katherine." She seemed ashamed by the last part but tried to hide it.
"Abigail just because we meet because you dated Stefan doesn't mean you are anything like Katherine."
"BUT I AM!" She shouted through tears that now fell down her face. "How long were me and her best friends? How long did I kill people by her side? I've gone back to that Damon."
Damon grabbed her by the arm. "You mean you are helping Katherine again?" He asked.
"NO! I just...I'm back to the way I used to be."
Damon let go of his grip on her arm. "But that's the you I love Abigail."
She shook her head. "I can't do this right now." She left the house, slamming the door behind her. Stefan came in just as she left, Elena holding his hand.
"Where's Abigail?" He asked.
"She left. Fix your own shit next time!"
"I told you to fix it not make it worse!" Stefan let go of Elena's hand and walked towards Damon but Damon raced at him and pinned him up against the wall.
"Don't even talk to me about making things worse! AREN'T YOU THE MASTER OF THAT?" He shouted.
He released Stefan and went over to the drinks and poured himself one.
"DAMON!"
Damon threw his glass towards Stefan direction and went to leave but Stefan raced after him and grabbed him. "Damon!"
"Just let him go Stefan." Elena pleaded from behind. "Just let him go." Damon shook him off and left, slamming the door behind him also.
Stefan grabbed Elena in a hug. "I knew he would ruin this. He did the same thing last time."
"Just give him a chance." Elena said. "I think that she might be good for him."
"Or she'll make him worse." Stefan shook his head.
WOW! Three chapters in three days! I'm on a roll. Please review and thanks yet again.
