Rose Petals (Discontinued)

Chapter Twenty-Six

Season 2: Memory Lane

"Ah! No touching Mr. Salvatore" Katherine playfully warns. "Those are the rules" Stefan scoffs.

"I thought you didn't believe in rules" Stefan points out; raising his hand up, his palm facing Katherine. Katherine mimics Stefan and the two walk in a circle. "My brother's still upset that you chose me to escort you"

"Well, Damon needs to concede that his younger brother is a better dancer" Katherine flirts. Katherine and Stefan put up their other hand up and spin. "Oh, looks like he found someone to occupy his time?" Stefan looks to see who his brother is with.

Stefan frowns when he sees a modern day Rosalie speaking with his flirtatious brother. Damon smiles, looking her up and down. Damon holds his hand out to Rosalie and she gladly takes it. The two walk to the doors outside. Rosalie glances back innocently.

"Rosalie!" Stefan calls, running after her. Damon and Rosalie walk outside, the door shutting behind them "No, Rosalie!" Stefan rushes to the door, pounding on it. "Rosalie!" Stefan pushes the door open and white light blinds him but he continues to run.

He runs into the grill, modern clothing. He looks around confused. He could hear Rosalie's sweet laugh. Stefan sees Rosalie holding a pool stick. She holds it out towards Stefan.

"It's your turn" She smiles. "Not that you'll win or anything" Rosalie shrugs cockily. Stefan smirks and starts walking to Rosalie when Damon cuts in front of him.

"Be prepared to lose" Damon sings. Damon places his glass of bourbon down and takes Rosalie's chin in between his fingers, kissing Rosalie tenderly on the lips. "Alright?" He whispers against her lips. Rosalie smiles lovingly up at Damon. Damon goes behind Rosalie and takes the pool stick, making it seem he was teaching her how to play.

"It hurts, doesn't it?" Stefan faces Katherine who's still in a victorian styled dress from the dance. Katherine frowns. Damon kisses Rosalie's temple and she giggles. Damon hits the ball into the socket smoothly. "Now you know how I feel," Katherine caresses Stefan's face, he couldn't look away. He couldn't stand seeing Rosalie and Damon together. "Don't fight it, Stefan. You loved me once," Katherine rests her forehead against Stefan's. "You can love me again"

Stefan looks back over to his girlfriend. She cups Damon's face. Damon smiles down at her and kisses her sweetly. Stefan steps forward. Katherine grabs his arm. Damon loops his arm around Rosalie's waist, pulling her closer. Stefan fidgets.

"I love you, Stefan. We'll be together again" He flashes back to the party, back in his old clothing. "I promise" Katherine whispers; slowly kissing Stefan. She smiles at him when she pulls away and rests her head in the crook his neck.

Stefan gasps awake; thankfully seeing his girlfriend curled up beside him, her head on his chest. Their legs tangled together. Stefan sighs; closing his eyes. She's always a deep sleeper, if there was a tornado, she'd most likely sleep through it. She cuddles up closer on his chest. Stefan smiles down at her,; brushing her brown hair away from her pale face. It was only a dream.

"You have to admit, I am getting better at the whole dream controlling thing?" Stefan gently lays Rosalie's upper body on the bed and then runs over to Katherine, grasping her throat.

"Get the hell out" Katherine pushes his hand away.

"It was easy to get inside of your head. Have you completely forsaken your nature? For that girl?" Stefan leaps at Katherine and she shoves him into desk. Rosalie stirs in her sleep. "Are we really going to do this again? We both know I could rip you to shreds and do my nails at the same time" Katherine states confidently.
