Season 2: Daddy Issues

Rosalie coughs into her sleeve. She sniffles and exits the house. Rosalie fumbles with the key and locks the front door. She turns around and gasps. Tyler glares down at Rosalie. Rosalie laughs. Tyler's face never changes.

"Jeez, Tyler. You scared me. What're you doing here?" Her voice is hoarse. She's coming down with a cold.

"I need answers" Rosalie scrunches up her eyebrows. "What happened to my Uncle Mason?" Rosalie's eyes widen.

"W--What?" She stutters. Tyler steps closer to Rosalie. Rosalie steps backwards and bumps into the door.

"You heard me. He's dead, and I want you to tell me what happened" Tyler demands, glowering at the sick brunette.

"Tyler, please--"

"Then let me tell you, Rosalie. Your boyfriend and his brother killed him, because Stefan and Damon are vampires. Just like Caroline" Rosalie jaw drops.

"Who told you that?"

"Is it true?" Rosalie bites her lip.

"Tyler, listen to me--" Tyler clenches his jaw.

"Did you know he was dead this whole time? When I asked you about him and you lied straight through your teeth" Tyler grips Rosalie's forearms. Rosalie winces from hold.

"Tyler, I didn't have a choice! I'm sorry! I wanted to help him," Tyler stares at Rosalie's fearful face. "You don't understand how much I wanted to help him"

"I trusted you!" Tyler's eyes glow orange and yellow. Rosalie breathes faster. "Mason trusted you!"

"I know! I know he did, Tyler!" Rosalie shouts. "I didn't get a say in it. You even know the reasons why it happened" Tyler curses and releases Rosalie, walking out of sight. Rosalie rubs her face. Rosalie punches the door in frustration.

Rosalie coughs; slamming the car door shut. Her headache isn't lightening up anytime soon. She jogs up the stairs to the Salvatore Boarding house and goes inside.

"I went to go look for Isobel, and I got John instead. He said he could help us and we're desperate" Rosalie scrunches up her eyebrows. John? John Gilbert? Rosalie walks into the living room.

Stefan and Damon stare at Rosalie. Her outfit really isn't her. Usually, she's more dressy and girly. Today, she's extremely comfortable and exhausted. The circles underneath her eyes stating she hasn't been getting enough sleep. Her pale complexion is whiter than usual.

"Are you talking about John Gilbert?" Stefan nods. He flashes over to Rosalie and places his hand against her forehead.

"You're pretty warm, are you feeling okay?" Rosalie smiles.

"I'm okay, just a cold. Continue your argument" Stefan chuckles. Damon scoffs.

"It's not an argument. We're not that desperate, Stefan. He tried to murder Rosalie and I!" He reminds him. Rosalie bites her lip.

"Damon, Bonnie's new witch friend is working with Elijah, so we have to assume that the moonstone was never destroyed. Elena's putting all of her faith into some deal that she made with Elijah to keep everyone safe" Rosalie frowns.

"Stefan, you should trust him. He's a smart man" Stefan sighs.

"He isn't trustworthy, Rosalie. He wanted to kill you the last time"
