Now And Then - Stefan Salvatore (currently editing)

1.59 Locked Up Stefan

City Jail.

Stefan was tied to a chair in the basement cell sleeping with his head bowed. I was sitting on the side looking at him. Lexi and Elena walked inside. 

Elena looked at him surprised.

Lexi "Klaus really did a number on him, huh?"

Elena "He compelled him to turn off his humanity."

Lexi " Well, we're just going to have to convince him to turn it back on. I have to warn you, it's not going to be pretty."

Elena nodded "I can handle it."

I rolled my eyes. 

She won't be able to handle it.

Lexi kicked Stefan's leg   " Wake up, sleepyhead."

Stefan slowly raised his head.

Lexi smiled " How you feelin'?"

He looked at the chair and the chains and struggled with the restraints " What is this? Let me out of here!"

Lexi" Shh. Inside voices, please. I'm trying to get inside your head."

Stefan looked at Elena " Elena. Get rid of her, please."

She shook her head " No."

He hasn't noticed me yet.

Lexi " First step, drying him out. Starve away the blood lust. Strip away the temptation."

Stefan shook his head "This isn't going to work, Lexi. You can't do this."

Lexi asked Elena " You heard the not pretty part?"

She nodded "I heard you."

Lexi leaned in front of him and looked him in the eyes.

Stefan asked confused  "What are you doing?"

He suddenly started to growl in pain " What are you doing, Lexi?!"

Lexi" Doing what I do best, sweetness. I'm saving your life."

Stefan went wild but the chains were stronger " I'm starving! I'm starving! I'm starving! Let me out! Let me out. Please let me out."

Elena asked confused "What's happening?"

Lexi" He's hallucinating. That's three months without any blood."

Stefan yelled " Let me out!"

Lexi" Now he's at nine months."

He was starting to look worse and worse. 

Lexi" Two years...Five."

Stefan chuckled " Did I ever tell you how glad I am that you're dead?"

Lexi " Oh. I missed you, too, friend."

Elena's phone rang. She walked out.

Stefan was sweaty and panting. 

I stood up and walked next to Lexi. 

Stefan fixed his eyes on me "I can't believe you agreed on this"

I shook my head, kinda amused  "i didn't agree on anything, Stefan. Your little girlfriend took matters into her own hands"

Stefan corrected me "Ex-girlfriend"

I fake grimaced in pain "ouch. Damn, Stefan, don't let her hear that."

Stefan "get me out of here"

Lexi " Don't listen to him. Shut him out."
