#overprotective!stefan

 Ultimately you were having an amazing day and you weren't going to let anything get in the way. You saw Stefan at his locker just down the hall and you made your way to him, balloons and teddy bears in your hands and gift bags. His face fell when he saw you approaching with so many gifts.

 "Hey!" You cheered and handed him his candy gram and balloon. He grinned and kissed you sweetly. "I love you." You smiled the biggest smile when he cupped your cheeks in his hands. 

 "Well thank you." He pecked your lips again and handed you a bracelet with a blue jewel placed in the center. "It's your favorite color, I thought of you when I saw it." It was the most beautiful bracelet you had ever saw. "I have more hold on." He reached into his locker and handed you a necklace with your birthstone in it. "It's a vervain necklace. It'll protect you from compulsion. And it's your birthstone." 

 You snapped the bracelet around your wrist and pulled your hair up for Stefan to clasp the necklace around your neck. "I love them. Thank you." You pecked his lips. 

 Stefan's smile faded when he noticed your bears and flowers. "Who gave you those?" He pointed to the bear and flowers. "Are these from other guys?" He started digging through the gifts and reading the tags. You had never saw Stefan get protective or jealous of anyone because he was usually so calm. 

"They're from people. I don't know all of them-" You explained. "But I know Bonnie, Caroline and Elena got some stuff for me. And Matt, but that's about it." You started to run your arm awkwardly. Stefan was digging through the gift bags and shaking his head.

 "So random guys just sent these to you? Are they bothering you?" He growled.* "No not at all, Stefan. Please, I just make friends with a lot of people. They didn't mean any harm-" You ran a hand through your hair. Stefan straightened his back and his eyes were dark. Not the playful leaf green anymore. It was a face you saw often with him. As his face morphed and he started shaking with anger, you pressed your hand to his shoulder. "Stefan your eyes. You're at school. Not here please." You begged. 

 As if he realized, Stefan rubbed his eyes and looked around casually before handing you your gift bags. "Yeah, uh sorry." He sniffled and finished packing things into his locker. "Uh so how about dinner tonight?" 

 "Yeah that sounds good. You just seem a little...on edge today. I didn't mean to upset you. I just make a lot of friends."

 "Don't worry about me, babe. It's just been a while since I've had a reason to...get weirded out over somebody trying to take your attention from me. It's no big deal." He shrugged his shoulders and slammed his locker shut.  

 You rubbed his shoulder. "Nobody's trying to take my attention from you. If you feel that way then we will make tonight amazing." 

 "That sounds promising. But I'm the vampire boyfriend who has anger issues." He grinned and took a gift bag from you and some balloons. "So that means I try to better myself, and I help my wonderful girlfriend carry her things to her next class." 

 So you just agreed with him since there is no changing his mind ever. You took his hand in yours and made your way to your next class. "As long as you get to put your hair up the way I like."
