Elena wasn't entirely sure what had happened. Things had been going well with Stefan. For the first time since her parents' deaths, she had started to feel alive again. The statement she'd been telling everyone, that she was alright, had finally been true. And then he disappeared. No messages, no texts, no communication of any sort. And she found herself slipping backwards. Her daily routine had become mechanized once more, even as she struggled to not be that girl. She didn't want to go to pieces because of a guy. She was stronger than that, wasn't she?
Forcing herself out of bed that morning, Elena had padded downstairs in her pajamas, putting some coffee on. She certainly needed it this morning. Watching it brew, she didn't even hear the footsteps behind her, lost in throught.
