The Vampire Diaries TV Show Article: My Steroline problem

3

posted by PPPopopipop

If I'm reading the sings correctly, creators of TVD are leading Stefan& Caroline toward a romantic relationship. And I'm not sure if I like it. If you'd tell me two years ago I'll say something like that I'd think you're crazy. Steroline are perfection! I'm a total sucker for coupels based on friendship, with a long build up...(That's why I love DE in the first place:D) But...
I've shopping Stefan & Caroline since 2x02. During whole seaon 2 theye had amazing relation. Vunerable girl with big self-esteem problems became strong fighter with big Stefan's help. He, on the other hand, was fun with her! He wasn't thes gloomy, obsessivly-protective guy he was while being with Elena. With Caroline he was able to laugh, have fun, he didn't have to desperately try so hard anymore. I really loved their friendship & I was hoping for something more one day, but later season 3 happned.
In S3 they bearly had scenes together. Caroline switched from Matt to Tyler meanwhile, at the end of S3 Klus showed sudden & unexplainable interest in her & there was no place for her friendship with Stefan. I though - ok, writers let it go, therie close relation is over.
And than season 4 started - like season 3 never happend. After basically not talking to each other they became total bffs. I didn't know if I was happier to see them sharing screen again or pissed becasue their friendship was a manipulation - it wasn't a natural development thgough while series, it just was written-in whenever JP wanted it. But still, I was happy. And somewhere in the seconf half of S4 we were hinted that there might be something more. Their cute dance with Stefan caring Care over his shoulder, than another dacne with Care saying Stefan will fall for someone else without ever relizeing it & eventually Lexi's "She's cute"... We can imagine where it's heading....And for me it shouldn't be this way!
Fist of al,, Stefan after having a threesome with Kat & Damon, and than being constantly insecure about Elena's feelings for Damon deserves to be "the one". He could have an adorable, happy relationship with his best friend, if he was trully "the one" for her - it would be perfect.
But when it comes to Caroline, writes made thing really messy. We are still told how much she loves Tyler, that he's the love of her life. Still she has something with Klaus - she has him wrapped aroung his finger & she's not afraid to take adventage of that. (The scene when she came for a new dress to "look really hot"... Come on! It was cute, yes, it was. And I know there are tons of jokes about mothers-in-law, but this was the biggest joke ever - making sweet eyes to the murderer of your technically mother-in-law? The only family the "love of your life" had left? Caroline?! Did the writers even read what they scripted?!)
So Stefan would now became another guy standing a line for Caroline, who already supposly found true love & is flirting with someone elese meanwhile. For me - just NO.
If writers clear all those thing first, give them both enough time to let go of Elena & Tyler, stay constant with writing Steroline relationship, maybe I'll be happy to see them together one day, as I would be if Stefan dumped Elena for CAre at the end of S2;)
But right now I think it's a total fanservice, lack of good ideas for relations between characters & beggings for viewers. I might have been good 23 years ago. It may be good in the far future. But right now - I believe it's wrong.

ggdelena i don't know they could be cute together.

DelenaLove201_ Kinda like it, kinda don't. Maybe I'd like them together more if they had more character development, because I definitely love them in fanfics :)

cali_poptart They became best friends in season four because Caroline promised she'd be Stefans sober sponsor after Klaus made Stefan become a ripper. But I wasn't a fan of steroline in season 3 too but now I totally ship them

Jeremy was standing in front of Bonnies house. Caroline had told him about the party tonight and he planned on offering to escort Bonnie to it. Part of him said ‘Screw her, dude. She dumped you to hook up with Damon Salvatore, the dick that killed you’, but another, much louder part said: ‘You still love her and despite what she’s done you want to give her another chance. She would do the same for you’
But after knocking several times he understood his ex wasn’t home. He considered going back home, then figured it wouldn’t hurt if he just waited inside. And so he opened the door...

Matt banged on the door and Tyler stumbled out of bed.
“I’m coming!” he shouted. He walked to the front door and as soon as he opened he saw a fist aiming for his face. The next moment he lay on the ground, Matt standing over him.
“What the hell?” Tyler muttered, touching his nose.
“Stay away from Caroline” Matt said threatening.
“What the hell are you talking about?” Tyler said as he scribbled up and his nose was healing.
“She told me you were with her” Matt said shaking.
“Where?...Oh” Tyler started to understand. “Look, Matt, it’s not what you think. It’s not...

Stefan ran into the hospital, Katherine in his arms. “Somebody help me! My girlfriend’s sick”
A doctor came running, while a nurse followed him with a stretcher. Stefan lay her down on it. “What happened?” the doctor said, while he rode the stretcher to an examination room. “She OD’d on some pills” “Do you know what pills? What kind?” the doctor continued. “Sleeping pills” Stefan hastily said. “I didn’t catch the name, though” He looked at the doctor. “She’ll be okay, right?”
“We’ll empty her stomach, but it’s important for us to know what pills she...

Elena opened her eyes and sat up. One thing was certain. This was not her room. Neither was it Damon’s. A picture of her and Stefan told her this was Stefan’s room. She got up and regretted it the moment she stood on her feet. Her head bounced, everything was blurry and she got so dizzy she had to sit down again. And on top of that her stomach was twisting around. Then she remembered the state she was in. This was just one of the symptoms…Wait, Caroline didn’t say anything about feeling nauseous.
“Hey, I cleaned your sheets” Damon said in the doorway. He noticed Elena’s pale face....

Kelsey’s body dropped on the floor and Damon appeared with her heart in his hand.
“You killed her” Stefan said.
“You’re welcome” Damon said.
“You shouldn’t have done that” Stefan said. “I deserved to die”
“You’re welcome” Damon repeated now pissed. Stefan’s ingratitude annoyed him immense. His ripper mood didn’t appeal to Damon, not anymore. But neither did he have to go back to his holier than the pope days.
“You always do this. You face a problem you can’t handle and so you eliminate the problem” Stefan said.
Damon lifted up the body and threw it over his...

After Damon had made that awkward phone call, he was the one being called. “Miss me already?” he said, thinking it was Caroline.
“Are you okay?” Alaric asked. Without awaiting an answer he continued. “How good are you with cars?”
“I can drive them quite well” Damon bragged.
“Yeah, I know, but not’s not what I meant” Ric said. “Remember I spent the night in prison?”
“Well, since I’m planning on telling the next generation of Saltzmans I couldn’t possibly forget” Damon smirked.
“I had to leave my car there, on the street” Alaric said. “And a tow truck brought...

She slammed the door open and went straight to the kitchen. Rachel looked up both shocked and excited. She wanted to walk to her, but Kelsey raised her hand. “Don’t come any closer” she said. “I just spent the most horrible and painful night of my life and I want to know why”
“Honey, I only know the big lines. I can’t tell you much” Rachel said. “Your father is coming home soon and he’ll be furious if he knows you’re here”
“Dad doesn’t have any right to be furious” Kelsey snapped. “He lied to me. He’s been keeping secrets from me”

Kelsey watched how Stefan and Katherine took off from behind a tree. It had been this close before she got busted. She came from behind her tree and walked further into the woods in the direction of the hotel Klaus had kept his prisoners. At first sight the place seemed to be deserted. She entered the hotel and covered her mouth. The bodies were lying there for a little longer than a month now.
“You get used to it”
Kelsey startled. She recognized Klaus’ voice.
“Don’t be rude” Klaus said. “Turn around. I can’t compel you, so I’ll have to trust on your manners”
Kelsey slowly...

A cold wind teased Kelsey’s naked body and she shivered. She slowly opened her eyes and looked around. There was nothing but leaves. Kelsey searched the ground with her hands and they touched something cold and solid. She slowly and fearful rotated her head. When she saw her sister’s body she gasped and covered her mouth. “Oh my God” she started crying as she crawled to Amber. “Amber, wake up. Please, honey, wake up” But Ambers eyes remained closed. “I’m so sorry, Amber. This is all my fault” she sobbed.
“Hey, you didn’t do all of it. I kicked some ass too”

Stefan looked up when he heard the door open. Damon and Katherine entered, but they were alone. “Where’s Elena”? Stefan asked, looking over Katherine and Damon’s head.
“She’s in the car with Caroline…and Bonnie” Katherine added grumpy. Stefan looked outside to see the car.
“The car that’s still on the road” Damon cleared up.
“Ah” Stefan said.
“Where did that treacherous bitch go?” Katherine tried to be neutral.
“You mean Amber?” Stefan said. “I don’t know. I thought she was right behind me, but I only turned around when I was here and by that time she was gone”...

Elena was tied onto a pillar in the center of the parking lot. Damon could see her from where he was standing. He could also see how werewolves and vampires were lurking from the dark. With the chance of being his heart ripped out he speeded to Elena who was still unconscious. He carefully tapped her face, to wake her. She slowly opened her eyes and when she realized it was Damon who had come to her rescue a little smile appeared on her face. “I knew you’d come” she said weak.
“Ssh” Damon said. “Don’t speak. I’ll get you safe”
“These ropes are really tight. It hurts” Elena...

Wow! Do I remeber the fan reaction to her and one word to sum that up is NEGATIVE. Which I could see why with her constant running and making Delena fans mad about her hook up with Damon. But who isn't running on this show anymore?

I have to say that this character in MY OPINION had a lot of potential and I'm sad that the writers just made her another throw away character that they tended to do a lot in the second season. But anyway I did start to like her in the last couple episodes she was in, especially 2x12.

The acting was incredible and I have to admit she was sexy in a punkish way and a...

One week later…

Sunray illuminated Elena’s face. She was awake, but didn’t want to get out of bed yet. The past week had been quite hectic. After Stefan and Damon had brought her home from the hamburger place Damon had returned and taken care of tattoo-guy. Or that was what he had planned to. However, when he got back he told Stefan and Elena that there was good news and bad news.
“The good news is that he’s not dead. Yay you, Elena” Damon said throwing his fists in the air. “The bad news is that he’s probably a vampire and he’s gone” That was a bummer. He assured Elena he...

“I think we should go” Damon said, looking at the clock. It was eleven p.m. “Okay, I’ll just go refresh myself and then we can leave” Elena said. She got up and walked to a red door next to the desk. To get there she had to pass the table were tattoo-guy and companions were still sitting. She felt her heart beating faster and she got sweaty palms. But they didn’t look up and she reached the bathroom without a problem. When she closed the door behind her she dared to breathe again. There were two doors opposite of each other. One said men, the other women. She opened the women’s...

Damon lay on his bed, his eyes closed. He hadn’t woken up since Bonnies attack. Elena sat on the bed, tears rolling over her face. She didn’t understand any of this. Why was Stefan so mean to her? Why did someone do this to Damon? And why did she have all these different emotions? She knew she was seventeen, but she didn’t feel like that. She felt like a little kid. She wanted to be cuddled and cherished. She lay down and snuggled against Damon’s cold body. She weaved her fingers in his and lay her head on his chest. She felt him moving and looked up. He was awake.
“No, you need to...

Stefan’s eyes glided from Elena’s top to her naked legs. “You really had nothing else to wear?” he asked doubtful. Elena frowned her eyebrows and pouted. “What’s wrong with this?” she asked, looking at her clothes.
“Nothing” Stefan waved his hand. “It’s fine. You look great, Elena”
“Are you angry with me?” Elena asked careful.
“No, I’m not angry” Stefan said annoyed.
“Yes, you are” Elena said upset. She crossed her arms and pressed the door bell, refusing to look at Stefan.
Stefan walked next to her. “Elena, come on, don’t… be like this, okay? Look,...

Damon carried Elena over the doorstep, like a bride and kicked the door with his foot, in an attempt to shut Bonnie outside. However, she just in time stopped the door from locking and she entered the Gilbert house.
“I’ll take her to bed” Bonnie said authoritative. But Elena groaned sleepy and clung on Damon’s neck. Damon ignored Bonnie and carried Elena upstairs to her bedroom. He opened her door, walked her to her bed and gently lay her down.
Bonnie stood in the doorway, looking sharp at the bed. Damon sat at the end, taking off Elena’s shoes. He felt Bonnies stare piercing on him...

Katherine stared at him like it was the first time she saw him. Damon walked passed her and entered the Boarding House. “Nice to see you too, by the way” he said to a speechless Katherine. “I heard Bonnie brought my stuff back here” Katherine nodded, then realized Damon didn’t see her since he was standing with his back to her and mumbled: “Yeah, she did” She gathered herself together and walked towards Damon and stopped right in front of him. “Why are you here?” she asked suspicious. “I mean, not that you can’t, this is your house, but are you allowed to be here?

Amber looked outside her window. The house was surrounded by police cars and a police officer held a loudhailer in his hand. She automatically covered her hands when he shouted: “Amber Lindy! You’re surrounded, there’s no way you can escape! Walk outside with your hands behind your head!”
Yeah, sure, I’ll surrender for something I didn’t do, Amber thought while she put her finger in her ears. They ringed. She would’ve heard him perfectly fine without the speaker, but of course they couldn’t know that.
Amber took out her phone and dialed a number. It took a while before she reached...

“You should go see a doctor”
Elena and Damon were sitting at the kitchen table with the first aid kit in the center. Elena had tried to bandage Damon’s finger, but the bandage didn’t want to cooperate.
“I can’t go to a doctor, I’m a vampire” Damon said. “And it’s broken, a first aid kit is not going to help”
“But doesn’t it hurt?” Elena asked compassionate.
“It’s okay” Damon said. Bonnie had made the pain lighter, just like she did with the whole jinx, but of course she couldn’t take it away completely. For that she had to die and since he couldn’t kill...
