TVD drabble: "taking a hiatus"
Author: that_treason
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Elena/Caroline/Bonnie
Prompt: "taking a hiatus" for tvd_ot3 weekly drabble challenge
This is an older prompt (from January 9th) but after some writer's block I finally got an idea in my head that I liked enough to scribble out. This is a continuation of my drabble for "joy" where Elena, Caroline, and Bonnie were drunk in Damon's bathroom while the boys are away in New Orleans. In that little drabble, I replaced the judgey conversation with drunken experimentation. It just sortof happened then, spur of the moment, off-top-of-my-head without a lot of planning or consideration -- and this one happened much the same way. I wanted something funny and joyful after what happened last episode -- drunken Caroline seemed like a good idea.
There's a note stuck to the door of the boardinghouse when they pull around in the driveway. Stefan pulls his phone out to check for missed messages; Damon speeds ahead to get a look at it. The handwriting is clearly Caroline's but it's a scrawled mess that's hard to make out in places.

Dearest Stefan, Damon, Tyler, Matt, Jeremy, and Shane,
For the purposes of ensuring our mental/emotional/spiritual health,
we are officially taking a break from all of you and Mystic Fallss'es'
entire Supernatural Drama Trap of Dooooom.
Even as you read this, we are fleeing town. Maybe the
county or the state too, we're not even sure yet. Elena keeps poking
me and telling me not to be so specific so fine. The point is we are
sooooo very out of here.
This is for now. We'll be back. And for serious Tyler, don't start
making eyes at people, I'll know. Honestly, I don't know if Elena cares
about what man-slut Damon does. Honestly, she's probably cool
with whatever. Ok, now I'm not sure, she's elbowing me a lot. I
said 'honestly' too much in this paragraph.
Anyway! Now that I'm thinking about it, it's probably wrong of me
to tell Tyler not to make eyes at people since the three of us have
been making hands at each other all night. Drunken-spirit-tea'd hands,
but still.
So maybe we'll just check into a hotel and feel each other up more.
Maybe we're starting that whole college experimentation thing early.
Or maybe this is a vampire thing and we're just acting according
to our nature. Doesn't explain Bonnie though. Now they're both
hitting me, whatever.
looooooove Caroline&Elena&Bonnie
(ps. that 'love' up there is not for man-slut Damon. except for maybe
from Elena. maybe. oww.)

The brothers glance at each other. Damon shakes his head and Stefan sighs a little. They head inside, not even bothering to pull down the note. The door slams shut behind them.
