Stefan walked down the empty hall of the school and froze when he saw a dark figure leaning on a locker.

After a few seconds he heard, "Hello brother," Damon's familiar glint in his eyes and cocky grin made Stefan stiffen. Why was his brother here? At the same time he was here?

"What are you doing here?" Stefan asked.

"Oh you know, out and about. Mystic Falls…brings back memories," Damon answered.

"What are you doing at a high school?" Stefan asked.

"Well, excuse me but I think I was the one who came here first," Damon replied. "I wanted to check the school, make sure I don't get lost on my first day. We'll be classmates. Besides, I can ask you the same question. You do look a little older than seventeen," Damon cocked his head. "I think I look younger than you. So you'll be a senior and I'll be a junior."

"That's not the point," Stefan said, a little agitated. She had to be the reason why Damon was here. "I don't want…what happened…years ago to happen again. Between us."

"Why do you mean?" Damon's eyes narrowed a fraction.

"Like you haven't seen her yet," Stefan said.

"Lucky for you, I learn from my mistakes. What happened ages ago, I'm not going to repeat," Damon said. "I mean, the girl you're pining for looks a whole awful lot Katherine, doesn't she? Is that the only reason why you're even interested in her? That's pretty low, brother. She just happened to be here at the wrong place at the wrong time. I have no interest in her, brother. She's all yours." So Damon did see her. That made Stefan uneasy. Was Damon really over it? Why was he acting so cool and calm? Was he really not interested in the Katherine look alike?

"W-what?" Stefan asked in disbelief. Then why was Damon here? It made no sense. "You're not going to kill her? There's been killings here."

"And you think I have something to do with it," it wasn't a question. Damon stepped away from the locker and raised an eyebrow. Stefan still didn't get over the fact that Damon knew the Katherine look alike was here, and he learned from his mistakes? There had to be some hidden agenda. Especially when Damon was involved.

"Why yes, Damon, you would do those type of things," Stefan said.

"Nah, I like to hide my food. Getting the press involved is some nasty stuff," Damon said shrugging. "So now you know it's not me, but another vampire. Try again. What about you? How long has it been since you tasted…human blood? For all I know, you might have killed them."

"I didn't," Stefan defended himself.

"Whatever you say, brother," Damon waved as he walked out the exit. "See you tomorrow at school."
