Hey guys! Woop first chapter, hope you like it :P review, favourite etc. Would mean a lot, feedback only makes you better right? Enjoy!

"Hey Care!" I shouted as I caught Caroline scurrying towards the school entrance. She turned around, with a blank, gormless expression on her face. Finally she saw me and a warm smile was evolving.
"Tyler, hey!" She exclaimed walking towards me still that comforting smile plastered on her face. Her eyes grew deep as she whispered. "How are you?"

I took a moment responding due to the sudden flush of memories from just two nights before. The night of my first transformation. I sighed, not even noticing I had stopped breathing. Caroline's face grew more so with concern than anything else, and so I replied.

"I'm still aching... but apart from that I'm good... Caroline?" I asked. She nodded as we began walking at a slow pace. "I just wanted to thank you, for everything the other night. I couldn't have done that without you" I was looking at the floor. It's not that I was uncomfortable, in fact I was more comfortable around Caroline than I had ever been with Matt, at the moment, it's just I didn't want her to be scared of me. I didn't want her to think that it was me who tried to rip her head of it was the monster that flooded my conscience and body. I saw her shrug in my brand new clearer vision.

I felt her smile radiating once again. "Don't worry about it. Like I said. I don't want you to be alone through this. I know how it feels having no one..." I was about to speak until we were interrupted.

"Hey Caroline... Tyler" Matt said. Sure it pissed me off that his greeting towards me was slightly bitter but I simply nodded.
"I'll give you guys a minute alone" I said unwillingly. Strangely I didn't want to leave her alone with him but what can you do huh?

CAROLINE'S POV.

Tyler left me and I felt my eyes grow slightly wild. I didn't want him to leave, I wanted him to stay just so Matt couldn't do anything stupid... like grovel?
"Uh hey Matt" I spoke friendly.
He laughed once then looked at the floor. "I couldn't help but notice how you and Tyler have been getting kinda close lately"

"well yeah. We have kinda become friends. Wierd right?"
"the weirdest... so you like, into him or?" He bashfully asked.
I playfully smacked him and exclaimed.

"What? we're friends Matt, like me and you?" I saw his face suddenly drop. Maybe I shouldn't have said that. Typical Caroline, says the things that shatters peoples hopes. Then again he had to hear it. I guess I was over him. Maybe not completey, but enough to know the reality of our situation. I could never be honest with him. I could never tell him what I was, therefore our relationship would be packed with lies.

I unexpectedly felt Matt's warm hand carefully holding my face. "I still believe in us..." the very words that he had said to Elena a year ago. Before I knew it, Matt's eyes had closed and his lips touched mine. My eyes remained open with shock and my lips froze, but he carried on. I caught the eyes of a wide-eyed Tyler who mirrored my emotions. Eventually, finally, Matt pulled back. He removed his hands from my face and took a huge step away from me. His face spoke more than anything. Humiliation, devastation, heartbreak, all three contained within his actions and expression.

"I'm... I'm sorry..." He whimpered and before I could reply he was rushing away.

TYLER'S POV.

She lifted her hands up to her lips and slowly began to unfreeze. I walked over to her, eyeballing Matt as I did. He glanced at me but was ashamed and so walked the opposite way of school. I assumed he would bunk school for the day and clear his head, but after this little stunt who knows what he will do, because the Matt who has just desperately kissed Caroline was not the Matt that I've known my whole life. Whilst blinking, breathing and stepping back into reality Caroline's eyes finally met mine.

"Wow" she said and so we began walking towards school again. I nodded. "I can't believe he's just done that" she giggled. I found it kind of cute how she was acting all stunned and not being all depressed about it. It made me respect her even more.

"I know right" was all I said. We were now surrounded by other students in the crazy corridor. She bid me goodbye as she had to go to her home room, but suggested we hang out after school before she left. "Sure, we'll hang out at my place... i-if that's ok?" I asked.

She giggled again, a shade a scarlet filtering her cheeks. "Thats fine! My house is b-o-r-i-n-g anyway" we smiled at each other for one faitful moment and suddenly she exclaimed "I really got to go, see you in History?" I nodded with a small yeah sure. We waved and before I knew it, Caroline's blond curls were springing among the heads of other pupils. I sighed and dragged my feet to my home room, seeing Jeremy Gilbert on the way. I nodded and I hesitated. Smile? no. Wave?

I just did the normal thing and nodded back. I couldn't just ignore him. We kind of had an understanding at last. I sighed. Fidgeting all day in my lessons pissed me off but I couldn't help it! The day felt like a drag. I couldn't wait until 6th period, when I'd see her again...
