"Tonight wasn't so bad. I really had fun." I tell Brian.

"Well that makes one of us." he replies.

"Oh come on. Damon didn't really ruin it, we can still have fun." I say. He looks at me and I smirk. He lifts his head and roughly kisses me, making me lean back on the bed. We switch positions and I am on top of him, I take off my shirt and start kissing him again. I stop as Brian takes off his shirt, when he does I see Damon. I quickly get off of him in shock.

I wake up in the dark in my bed. I had just had a sex dream involving Brian and Damon, I seriously hope that Damon isn't getting involved in my life. I decide to get out of bed and take a shower, when I walk by my window I see a black crow.

"Shoo." I say waving my hands. It then flies away and I take my shower in peace.

"Ooh. Look at you. You look hot in your jersey." Elena says as she sees Stefan. Brian was right next to him, he smiles at me and I smile back.

"What happened? No more cheerleader?" Stefan asked. I walk up to Brian and take his hand and look back at Elena and Stefan.

"She's a quitter. Just like me." I say with a smile. Stefan looks at me in surprise. "I use to be a cheerleader until I decided to quit this year." I tell him. Stefan still looks surprised.

"No. You both aren't quitters. You suffered a great loss. You're not the same person. You should be looking ahead, starting over." Stefan pauses and looks at Brian.

"Stefan and I have something for you girls." Brian says.

"I hope this isn't too weird." Stefan says to Elena as he holds out a box. Brian also holds out a box.

I open the box and see a necklace. It was so adorable, I wonder if Brian got it when he was traveling around Europe.

"Oh my God, it's beautiful." Elena says holding up the necklace. I hold it up to my nose and smell it.

"It smells like a rose." I say. Elena looks confused and smells her necklace.

"It's an herb." Stefan says. I look back at Brian and hug him.

"Help me put it on?" I ask as I turn around. Brian put the necklace around me and once he's done I turn back around with a smile on my face. I take both of Brian's hands and look up at his dark brown eyes, they gleam into mine.

"And, uh, I wanted to thank you for pushing me to try out for the team. It feels really good." Stefan says looking at me. I give him a small smile and a nod. Then I turn back to Brian as he softly kisses my lips. I didn't know why, but I didn't want the soft Brian at this moment, I wanted the rough Brian from last night.

I pull away and say goodbye to Brian as he goes off to meet with the rest of his team.

Later that night it got crazy, my heart and head was pounding like crazy, it felt like I was at a club but with no music. I get to the front of the crowd and see Brian in between Stefan and Tyler, with his arms crossed. When Brian notices me he gives me a smile and I give him one in return. When he looks away and I look to the side of him and see Tyler staring at me. He tilts his head to the side asking if he could talk to me, I shake my head. Can't Tyler get a hint that I don't want to talk to him anymore.

"Let's be honest here, in the past we used to let other teams come into our town and roll right over us!" Mr. Tanner yells. Everyone starts to boo.

For some reason I look over to the football team and watch as Tyler walks away, I turn behind me and see Jeremy watching his every move. I quickly leave the crowd and make my way towards Jeremy who was drinking a beer.

"Jeremy, what are you doing?" I say quickly. Jeremy looks down at me with a glare.

"Nothing that involves you." he says.

"Jeremy whatever you are doing to piss off Tyler, it has to stop." I say. He tilts his head in anger.

"Hey, Ty. What's wrong?" Viki asks. I sigh to myself and turn around.

"Nothing." he looks at Jeremy. "Is that Jeremy?" he asks walking toward him. Viki jumps off the back of the trunk and ran towards him.

"No, Ty." she says. He easily pushes her out of the way. Once Tyler gets close to Jeremy, he stands in front of me and looks at Jeremy.

"Don't look so pissed." Tyler smirks. "Viki would rather hang out with me than you, and she's even a little tipsy."

Before I could do anything Jeremy roughly pushed me aside and I hit my head on the side of the trunk, after that everything felt fuzzy.

"Stop!" I say softly. I could feel I had blood on my head. I ignored that my head felt dizzy and I got up from the ground and saw that Tyler was on top of Jeremy, punching him. Out of the crowd I see Stefan running up to Tyler to stop him.

"He's down."

Tyler glares at Stefan before punching him in the stomach. Stefan doesn't flinch and Tyler is shocked. I slowly walk up to them and Stefan notices my head.

"Are you okay?" he asks. I nod.

"Jeremy no!" Elena yells from behind. Stefan pushes Tyler who bumps into me and we both fall to the ground. I look up and see Tyler on top of me and he looks into my eyes.

"Are you okay?" he asks. I push him off of me and see Elena runs over to Jeremy who had a broken glass bottle in his hands. I slowly get up and walk over to them both.

"What the hell Jer!" Elena yells at him.

"Lift your head, you're bleeding." I say putting my hands on his head. He takes my hands and pushes them away, I bit my lip as I can feel the tears start to spill.

"I'm fine!" he yells. Elena look at me in shock, then she looks back at Jeremy.

"Yeah, you smell fine." Elena says.

"Just stop it." Jeremy says hitting my shoulder as he walks away. A tear goes down my face as he hits my shoulder. Elena looks at me and I ignore her look and look at Stefan, she runs to him.

Before I could walk to Stefan, Brian runs up to me and hugs me which makes me get a little dizzy.

"Are you alright?" he asks concerned. I sniff and whip away my tear and nod.

"It's almost kick off time, I just wanted to make sure you were okay." he says looking at my bloody head. I fake a smile and kiss him softly.

I was walking back to Elena's car when I was interrupted by Tyler who came from behind and stood in front of me. I was so close to him, I could smell the alcohol on him.

"Just leave me alone Tyler." I say walking around him.

"We need to talk." he says catching up to me.

"There's nothing to talk about Tyler. You tell me you're in love with me when I'm dating Brian, who is your best friend. But you also love Viki." I say. Tyler stops me again and puts his hands on my shoulder.

"No you have to understand I only love you." he says. I leans in quickly to kiss me, but I push him back, he grabs my arms, I try to get out of his grasp but he's to strong.

"Stop Tyler! Let go of me!" I yell.

When I finally get out of his grasp I quickly run to find Elena's car. While looking back I run into something hard. I look up and see Damon holding my sides with wide eyes. Damon looks up and see Tyler.

"You know I really don't like you Salvatores." Tyler growls.

"Nice try." Damon says as I move aside. Damon then punches Tyler in the face. Tyler quickly gets up to punch him back, but Damon grabs his fist. "Leave and go get sobered up." Damon demands. Tyler glares at him before walking back to the game. Damon turns tome.

"You okay?" he asks. I pause and smile with a nod.

"Thanks." I say. He shrugs with a smile. "What are you doing here?" I ask realizing that he's not with Caroline.

He leans in and whispers, "I'm hiding from Caroline."

I lean and whisper back, "And why is that?"

"I needed a break. She talks more than I can listen." Damon shrugs.

"Well that could be a sign." I say.

"Well she's awfully young."

"Not much younger than you." I quickly point out.

Damon chuckled, "I don't see us going anywhere in the near future. She would drive me crazy."

"Caroline does have some really annoying traits, but we've been best friends since first grade and that means something to me." I glare at Damon.

"Dully noted. Sorry if I make you uncomfortable. That's not my intention." Damon smiles.

"Yes it is or else you wouldn't put an alternate meaning behind everything you say." I say in an annoyed tone.

"You're right, I do have other intentions." Damon admits. "But so do you."

"Excuse me?"

"You want me." Damon says.

"What!" I say in shock. I have no idea why he would think that.

"I get to you. You find yourself drawn to me. You think about me when you don't want to think about me, I bet you even dream about me." Damon smirks. I'm shocked so I don't say anything. Damon looks into my eyes and his pupils dilate. "And right now you want to kiss me." he smirks and starts to lean in, but I slap him.

"What the hell?! Are you insane, I have a boyfriend. I know you have issues with your brother, but I don't want to be apart of it. Let's get one thing straight here, I'm not Katherine." I say and walk away.

Damon's POV

After I killed Stefan's coach I watched Sophie's every move. She isn't at all what I thought was Katherine, she cares about everyone before herself and doesn't draw attention to herself. When she arrives home I stand on the sidewalk looking up at her window room, waiting for her to go to bed.

Once the light turns off I wait a few minutes to make sure she is really asleep, then I quickly make my way to her room. I look at her in her bed as she lay under the covers so peacefully. I look at the blue journal on her bed, I know I shouldn't read it, but I do anyway.

'Dear Diary,

Today was the most craziest day. Tyler wants to be with me and Damon has this crazy idea that I like him. I have to admit he is very attractive, but Brian is the one I love and nothing will change that.

Besides my love life I feel like I have a good relationship with Stefan, but still not with Jeremy, I just hope he will understand everything when I tell him the truth.

S.'

I close her journal and lay it back on her bed and look at her and gently reach out and stroke the right side of her face and tuck a piece of hair behind her ear. I see the dry blood on top of her head that was now turning into a bruise, if Jeremy doesn't get his attitude straight, I will make him.

She stirs and I quickly leave. I look up at her window from the sidewalk and smirk, but quickly shake it off. She doesn't love me like Katherine did, but then again, she's not Katherine.

I can't fall in love with Tessa.
