WHO: Salvatore Brothers WHERE: Stables WHEN: Week 7; Tuesday, afternoon WHAT: Stefan has been attempting to avoid, but it's pretty easy to find him. RATING: Low? STATUS: In progress
He'd been avoiding. Which was an age old tactic for those who didn't want to face things, like their brother, their master...their feelings. But Arik had kept his distance and Stefan hadn't heard a thing from Damon since his birthday dinner so he figured he was safe, at least for a little while. While Arik was away and his brother seemed to be occupied with Enzo, Stefan had sneaked away from the house for some fresh air, finding the only place he really wanted to wander to was to see his stallion, Mezzanotte. Even if he'd be easy to find.
Coming to the stables, Stefan passed by Damon's horse and went straight for his own. The beast let off a pleased sound at the sight of his master and immediately lowered his head, allowing the vampire to run his fingers through his hair. "Hey there," he greeted in return, finding immediately that his lips broke out into a grin. He found a brush nearby and feeling rather at peace, he began to groom the massive animal who was always agreeable for Stefan and Stefan alone.
For the first time in awhile, the vampire was happy and had completely forgotten about his problems. He didn't know how long it would stay that way, but it was nice for now.
