[  ....  ]          he  couldn't  deny  that  he  was  thrilled  to  see  her  again  after  disappearing.  he  wasn't  quite  sure  if  she  would  say  the  same  about  him.  she'll  get  over  it  ...  right?

                ❝  you're  not  still  mad  at  me,  are  you  ?  don't  think  too  hard  about  it,  not  everything  is  about  you.  ❞

blame @safestkittykatintown + @lycancursed for creating the worst ripper since stefan salvatore.

continued from here with @lycancursed. / jackie matlin & stefan salvatore.

[  ....  ]             stefan  was  well  aware  of  how  terrible  he  had  treated  many  people  while  his  humanity  was  switched  off.  jackie  wasn't  far  down  that  list.  he  had  used  her,  ignored  her,  treated  her  like  dirt  as  if  he  didn't  care  about  her  but,  the  fact  of  the  matter  is,  he  did  care.  there  was  a  reason,  even  during  his  ripper  phase,  that  he  continuously  would  fall  back  on  her.  if  he  hadn't  thought  about  her  or  cared  about  her,  he  would've  acted  like  she  never  existed.  now,  here  he  was  again,  humanity  finally  flipped  back  on  after  all  the  chaos  he  caused  in  the  name  of  revenge  against  klaus.  he  didn't  succeed,  not  in  the  glorious  way  he  would've  wanted,  but  the  realization  had  hit  him  when  he  was  at  his  lowest  point;  he  would  never  get  that  satisfaction  he  was  desperately  craving.

there  were  plenty  of  people  he  needed  to  make  amends  with  and  jackie  was  at  the  top  of  his  list.  that's  why  he  was  here  at  her  doorstep,  hoping  she'd  give  him  the  chance  to  at  least  explain  himself  and  apologize  for  his  horrid  behavior.  his  brows  had  raised  in  astonishment  when  she  invited  him  in.  he  had  expected  her  to  kick  him  to  the  curb  or,  at  the  very  least,  slap  him  across  his  face.  so,  this  was  a  pleasant  surprise.  he  offers  a  half-smile  before  stepping  past  her  threshold,  his  hands  stuffed  in  his  pockets  as  he  glanced  around  then  back  at  her.  he  took  in  a  breath,  ❝  in  a  nutshell  ...  ❞  he  began,  ❝  i'm  sorry,  jackie.  i  know  sorry  isn't  going  to  cut  it  but,  i  am.  and  i  need  your  help.  at  least  for  tonight.  i  know  i  have  no  right  to  ask  but  i  promise  to  make  it  up  to  you.  whatever  you  need.  ❞

[  ....  ]              damn,  he  forgot  just  how  sassy  and  spicy  @lycancursed  was.  that  was  definitely  something  he  had  missed  about  her  personality.  she  could  always  easily  entertain  him,  even  in  his  most  bored  states.  he  shakes  his  head  in  disbelief,  a  faux  expression  of  being  offended  by  her  accusatory  words.  one  hand  is  on  his  chest  gestured  dramatically,  mouth  agape,   ❝   you  hurt  me  with  your  words,  jackie   ❞   he  stated  with  a  soft  gasp.  a  grin  instantly  replaces  his  expression  and  a  quiet  chuckle  escapes  his  lips.  he  loved  pushing  her  buttons.

his  brows  raised  in  surprise  at  her  next  words,   ❝   you  know,  if  i  cared,  that  would've  hurt  my  feelings   ❞   he  replied  and  then  'booped'  her  nose  with  his  index  finger,  scooting  closer  to  her  just  to  spite  her.   ❝   i  have  some  ...  unfinished  business.  figured  i'd  swing  by  here  and  let  you  know  i'm  back.  also  hoping  you'd  keep  it  to  yourself   —   at  least  for  now.   ❞

she lets out a childish, and frankly, bratty huff. how arrogant can he be? he slides in next to her so nonchalantly. as if he had earned the place next to her, owned it. then has the audacity to touch her game. if he were anyone else - she just might have made him eat a few of those buttons, or at least tried to. at least he gets a few points for the adorable comment.

❛❛ as adorable as i am. you an' i both know you did not miss me, steffy pie. you missed having someone that entertains you while you are livin' your best ripper life. other than klaus, of course. you miss that little tingle i can give you. the type'a tingles you deprive yourself of while acting like a choir boy on bunny blood.❜❜ she isn't mad at this, simply pointing out something she believes. ❛❛ which jus' happens to be, as you so eloquently put it, the 'wolfie girl' so. why are you back in town now ? an don't say because of me. that's not enough t'be back. you have a hard on for me, not in love. so spare me the false narratives, hm ? ❜❜

[  ....  ]                   stefan  couldn't  deny  that  he  was  amused  by  her  cocky  attitude.  two  can  play  at  that  game,  and  that's  why  stefan  always  enjoyed  the  banter  between  them.  he  wondered  if  he  would  feel  the  same  if  his  humanity  was  on  ...  probably  not.  a  chuckle  escapes  his  lips  as  he  approached  her  and  took  it  upon  himself  to  plop  right  next  to  her  with  a  bounce.  he  scoots  until  his  thigh  was  pressed  against  hers,  and  he  slinks  his  arm  across  the  back  of  the  couch  behind  her  head.   ❝   you  forgot  how  funny  i  am  ?  i'm  hurt,  wolfie  girl   ❞   he  pouted  sarcastically  and  starts  pressing  random  buttons  on  her  switch.  he  shook  his  head,   ❝   but  what  if  i'm  here  because  i  particularly  missed  you  ?  unlike  a  rude  someone  in  this  room,  i  didn't  forget  how  adorable  you  are   ❞   he  teased  back. @lycancursed.

she looks up from her game of animal crossing, brow arched. perhaps, she was, ever so slightly miffed. though, she has mostly gotten over it. and by the time the last words have left the rippers mouth, she has forgotten it. snorting in a sound of amusement. ❛❛oh eat my shorts. - i forgot how funny you were,❜❜ she comments. ❛❛ i don't think everything 'bout me, steffy pie. you almost sound like you're projecting. why don't you find someone t'sink your teeth into. then get back to me. ❜❜
