Just because they broke up doesn't mean Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder get to stop seeing each other.

The "Vampire Diaries" co-stars are working on their show, and according to reports, things are awkward on set for the two. Somerhalder has moved on after his breakup with Dobrev. He is dating Nikki Reed.

There's rumors that it doesn't look as though it will get better between the two. They are supposedly not even speaking. There's even reports that Dobrev wants to leave the show following this season because of how tense it is on set.

Adding to the awkwardness is that Somerhalder keeps talking about Reed, and he seems much more affectionate with Reed than he was with Dobrev.

Somerhalder and Reed recently adopted a kitten.

"Went to the animal shelter today to give some love to the babies living in cages and don't have homes and ended up adopting the little girl!" she said about the kitten. "What should we name her?"

Reed and Somerhalder were first linked in July after being seen at a farmers market together, notes E! News.

In September, a source said that the two were "crazy for each other" and that their romance was still going strong.

And the "Vampire Diaries" star even defended Reed against critics.

In a lengthy Instagram comment, he explained that he wouldn't stand for mean comments about Reed.

"You HATE NIKKI REED? Really? Do you know her?" he said. "Hmmmm, I'm not sure that you do. Look on her Instagram feed or twitter and all you will see is a compassionate and beautiful human being. Please put your negative energy elsewhere. You don't even know the person you're talking about."

He also told people to do a little research on Reed before they spoke about her. He added that she was someone who was making a difference in the world.
