Elena, Caroline and some other people were standing bởi their lockers, getting ready to go home.
“How come Bonnie didn’t show?” Elena asked, diễn xuất careless. Caroline focused on her sách she was putting in her locker and avoided Elena’s stare. “I think she’s not ready for it yet” she đã đưa ý kiến uneasy.
“She’s not ready for it yet? Okay, that’s…completely understandable, được trao the things she’s been through” Elena replied sarcastic.
Caroline averted her head and looked at her best friend with a sad expression. “She’s not ready to face bạn guys. She’s not ready to see the reproaching in your eyes”
Elena raised her eyebrows. “Really? Because yesterday she didn’t seem to have a problem with that. She just walked into the Boarding House and confronted Damon. Can bạn imagine what it was like for him?” she đã đưa ý kiến mad.
Caroline shook her head. “I told her to stay away. I forbid her to go”

This isn’t like you. I understand your hate and your pain and I don’t approve of what Bonnie did to bạn and Damon. But this hate is going to kill you. bạn have to try to look passed it”
Elena bent her head, then looked up. “I know” she nodded. “Come on, let’s go home” and she linked her arm to Caroline’s. They had only made a few steps when Elena held hers. She stuck out her hand and sought balance against the lockers. “Elena, are bạn alright?” Caroline asked concerned. Elena nodded. “Yeah, I’m just…a bit dizzy”
“You want to see the school nurse first?” Caroline suggested.
“No, I don’t want to bother her now” Elena said. “She’s probably getting ready to leave and I don’t want to keep her here any longer than she has to”
Caroline rolled her eyes. “Well, the hospital then?”
Elena’s eyes widened. “Are bạn out of your mind? I’m a little dizzy, I’m not at the brink of death”
“Okay” Caroline đã đưa ý kiến with raised hands. “Suit yourself”
