Elena was in her room cleaning it since her dad said it looked like Rebekah's closet threw up in there. She heard her phone begin to beep and being a teenager she ran to it."OMG! OMG! OMG! DADDY!" Elena shouted running out of her room leaving all Rebekah's clothes on her floor. "What is it Elena?" "I've got to got back to Mystic Falls!" "Since when are you so interested in such a small town? I thought you liked it here in the city." "I do, but Jeremy just invited me to the prom and I've never been to one so I wanted to go. Pretty please with lots of blood on top." Elena pleaded with her puppy dog eyes and bottom lip poking out. "How long will you be gone?" "I don't know, but Uncle Kol and Elijah can even come with me."

"Fine, but did you finish cleaning your room? "Yeah" Also tell me how did this Jeremy guy even invite you?" "Text message, duh! You know to be so old you're pretty slow on the technology updates." Elena said rolling her eyes. "And if you keep talking you'll be waiting another year until you go to a prom."

Elena went back to her room and picked up all the clothes she borrowed from her Aunt and sat them in the corner, then tapped her phone to bring it to life and typed in the code to get in. She went to her text messages and brought up Jeremy's earlier text then hit reply.

To Jeremy: I'll be there, meet me at the Grill tomorrow night around 9:00. ;P

Elena threw the phone in the middle of her bed and got her tablet off the desk and sat up against the headboard of the bed with the tablet leaning against her legs. She went to her G-mail account to check her e-mail, but her in-box was empty besides junk mail and spam mail.

"Elena!"

She heard her father's voice call from downstairs. She put her cellphone in her jeans back pocket then walked downstairs to see both her Uncles, Aunt and father sitting down. "Is there a reason we're having what I'm guessing is a family meeting?" "Nothing big Elena, I only informed Elijah, Kol and Rebekah about your little trip to Mystic Falls." Klaus answered.

"Is something wrong?"

"No! I'm actually excited about seeing how America has changed after being in a a box for over 200 years." Kol said with a dirty look at Klaus. "A lot brother." Rebekah said. "Please tell me though Elena why you picked these two pigs who don't have my fashion sense to go with you to prom." "They've been secluded from the world for centuries and deserve to see how it changed. I promise when the next prom comes we'll forget they even exist and go and have as much fun as possible."

"Ok." Rebekah said with a smile giving her niece a hug. "Good now come help me choose what to pack, I want every boy there to forget they have girlfriends."

"Excuse me love, but we never agreed on boys beside this Jeremy guy." Klaus said going in to protective father mode. "Daddy last time I was in Mystic Falls all boys could do was stare and I hated it. And now that I want it you say something?" "Yes I want my daughter to stay a virgin until at least her 2,000 birthday."

Both Rebekah and Elena started laughing. "I got some news for you father, I lost that last year." "You were in Mystic Falls last year." "Yes, I know where I was and who it was with." "Who The hell turned my little girl in to a women?" "Damon Salvatore. It was at the boardinghouse and a drunken mistake." Elena said remembering how good Damon was in bed.

"You knew about this?" Klaus asked in fury turning towards his sister. "Yes, but it's part of her growing up. Now get out and let us pack." Klaus was furious but left anyway.

"So how long are you staying?" Rebekah asked, but before Elena could answer she felt her phone start to vibrate in her pocket. She pulled it out to see another text from Jeremy.

From Jeremy: Glad you're coming! I can't wait to see you.

What about the time difference though? What if you don't get in Mystic Falls at 9:00?

To Jeremy: I can't wait to see you either, I'll just call you when I get there. I also have two extra people coming with me so if you've got some girl friends without dates I can hook them up.

From Jeremy: Sorry, everyone I know has a date. :(

"So he can't wait to see you?" "Aunt Rebekah!" "What, if you want to text then don't do it with a vampire in the room who has speed reading." "Lets just pick out some sexy clothing for me to wear while I'm there."

"I like this pink push up bra and panty set. How about you?" Rebekah asked." "Yeah and it will go good with this black blouse and some simple blue jeans." "If we just add some sexy bra and panties set with revealing clothes you'll have every guy following you to the airport when you start to come home, trying to come back with you."

"Rebekah as fun as that sounds I will just be there a few days, I only want a little drama." "That's fine as long as you don't were that red dress with those black heels I bought you." Rebekah said with a wink indicating Elena to wear it.

"Everything sounds fine just let me go make sure Kol and Elijah have packed." "And I'll take care of Nik." Elena knocked on Kol's door praying he had already packed. "Come in!"

"I see you've began to pack." "Yeah well I couldn't wait. What time will the ship be leaving?" Elena gave him a apologetic look and wrapped her arms around him. "Oh Uncle Kol I'm so sorry for what Daddy did. He stopped you from learning about all the transportation ways and so much more." "What do you mean transportation ways?" Kol asked pulling away from Elena.

People no longer travel by ships unless they're going on a cruise which is basically a vacation on water." "So how will we get to Mystic Falls?" "Something called a plane two men invented it back in the early 1900's." "What does it do?" Kol asked confused.

"It flies Kol. It will fly from here in London to Richmond, Virginia then we must drive for about and hour to get to Mystic Falls." "That's a lot of work Elena." "Not really, lots of people do it everyday." "So when will I get to see this plane thing?"

"Well you wouldn't happen to know the time difference between Mystic Falls and here?" "Elena I've been free for a month, I'm not exactly caught up to date on everything. Why?" "Once I find out I can tell you when you can see your first plane." "Klaus should know go ask him." "Daddy isn't happy with me right now." "Why not?"

"Yes, Elena why not? Tell your uncle why I'm unhappy." Klaus said walking in the room. "I thought Rebekah was dealing with you." "She tried to explain that it was natural and something you would do regardless what I say. Then brought up how your mother was your same age when I took hers." "Ew! I could have gone the rest of my life without knowing you popped mom's cherry." Elena said grossed out.

"What are two talking about?" "Go on Elena tell him. Tell him what you did last year." Elena turned to face Kol a sadden expression. "Uncle Kol, last year I was sent away to Mystic Falls to live with Stefan and Damon Salvatore. While I was there I fell in love with Stefan, and we started dating. A month before that though I was drinking with Damon and we both had a little too much and ended up having a one night stand. We both agreed it was a mistake and never told anyone." Elena said leaving out the part her father was so angry about.

"It was only a one time thing Nik there isn't anything to be mad about." "Oh there is, she just left it out. Now Elena would you like to continue or should I just come out and tell him?"

"Damon took something that night of mine that I can never get back, but I never told him because I didn't want him to know." "A drunken night Elena?" Kol said now figuring out Elena gave her virginity up on a one night stand. "Uhg, I don't understand what the big deal is. The only person who understands me is Aunt Rebekah. Where is she?" Elena screamed storming out Kol's room. "Rebekah! Rebekah!"

"She's about to come up here screaming at me." Klaus told his brother. "Why?" "I snapped Bekah's neck when she just wouldn't shut up."

"Elijah have you seen Bekah?" Elena asked. "Not since the two of you went upstairs. "Somethings isn't right, she went to talk to Daddy and hasn't been seen since." "Try the den." Elena nodded and walked in the den to see her aunt laying on the floor.

"Rebekah! No, please wake up!" She started tapping her face but nothing happened. She then realized her father had snapped his on sister's neck.

"How dare you!" Elena shouted walking in Kol's room. "What?" "You snapped her neck, why do you have to be so mean to your family?" "She wouldn't stop talking Elena." "She was only trying to put you at ease with the virginity thing, but who cares now?" She said going to her room.

Elena decided she wasn't just going to sit there in her room and be angry she was going to do something about it. She took her phone out was about to find Jeremy's name in her contacts and call him when she remembered all the lurking ears in the house so she brought up a text message instead.

To Jeremy: Expect me to be there a little earlier than expected.

From Jeremy: How early, it's almost 10:00 here so do you mean like 5:00?

This boy obviously never listened in math class to those "if the train (A) leave at the train station at 8:00 going 60 mph and train (B) at 9:00 going 65 mph what time will train (A) arrive at its destination?" questions. Elena thought.

Jeremy was getting anxious waiting on Elena's reply, he hadn't expect her to even agree to go with him let along arrive days early. Then he heard a chirping letting him know Elena had replied.

From Elena: No silly! I'm not even on a plane but I'll be buying a ticket soon and be on my way to see you and everyone else.

He smiled at her reply. Jeremy couldn't wait to see everyone's face when they saw Elena Mikaelson with him. He looked in the mirror and saw his hair needed to be cut. He was going to wait until after prom, but now that Elena would be there tomorrow for all he knew. Jeremy got his shoes on and was out the door on his way to the salon to get his hair cut.

Elena was looking for the next flight out of London to Richmond online when she saw one would be leaving in 55 minutes. She grabbed her emergency cash from the top shelf in her closet and put it in her pocket.

She opened her window got her suitcase and jumped out the window, her landing wasn't perfect but it was better tan what she thought it would be. Elena grabbed the keys to her car from her jacket pocket. "So long Daddy!" Elena said and hit the gas speeding out the driveway leaving skid marks on the road.

It would take less than thirty minutes to the airport to the normal forty-five minutes it took to get there with her driving normal speed. Elena's phone started to ring her Aunt's ring tone "Thrift Shop." Elena debated on answering, she might be mad. All well she would just tell her that she was boarding the plane and there was no way for her or any of her brothers to get to her.

"Hey Aunt Bekah!" "Not exactly my dear." Her father said in a voice she only heard him speak to people when he was extremely angry and ready to kill them. "where are you Elena?" "Boarding the plane." "Well then I guess you have a long lost twin because I see a girl who resembles you all the way down to the clothes." Klaus lied, seeing if Elena would actually tell him if she was on the plane.

Elena crushed the phone into millions of pieces in her hand then got her purse and suite case while looking around for her father. "That dirty little lier." Elena said to herself as she walked up to the receptionist. "Hello ma'am what can I do for you?" "Yeah I need a ticket for the next flight to Richmond, Virginia." The woman typed in somethings Elena could care less about the woman said. "What class?" "First class." "That will be $700.00." "Did you see me blink?" Elena asked annoyed. "Oh yes, I'm sorry."

Elena began to take her money out to pay when she thought why not keep the money and take a page from her father's book and just compel the women to give her the ticket for free."And this will be free won't it?" Elena asked compelling the woman. "Yes. Have a great trip!" Elena smiled and took her ticket then sat down and waited for her flight to be called.

"Thought you were on a plane." Elijah said sitting next to Elena. "Save your breath Elijah I'm not going back. "I'm on your side in this Elena." "What?" "They told me the story and I think it was dumb to be drunk but, it was your choice. You're old enough in both human and hybrid years." "Thank you Elijah. I'm still not going back though." "Yes you are. You ran away and Klaus wants you at the house to take your punishment." "Elijah, I'm part werewolf and I will bite you. And since it's me and not Daddy who bit you only I will be able to heal you, and I wouldn't, without a good reason."

"You truly are Klaus' daughter." Elena smiled at his comment and walked towards the door that lead to her flight. "Sorry but I've got a flight to catch, a dress to buy and a prom to dance at tell Daddy bye for me."

Elijah knew Klaus wouldn't be happy, but Elena could make her own decisions, good or bad.

Elena sat in her first class seat alone without anything to do since she had to bring only necessities so the suitcase wouldn't be to heavy and make her fall when she jumped out the window. "Everyone please buckle your seat belts we will be taking off soon." A woman's voice said over the intercom.

It was 4:00pm here in London and Elena realized she never found out the time difference between Mystic Falls and London. "Excuse me Mr. you wouldn't happen to know the time difference between here and Mystic Falls?" Elena asked the man in front of her. "I'm sorry, but no." "Damn." Elena muttered under hr breath.

Elena just watched out the window for the next eight hours not bothering to eat or even sleep. By the time the plane was half way there she started feeling guilty about how she and her dad left things. That feeling passed quickly once she remembered she was going to a prom.

"Alright everyone time to buckle up again, we'll be landing at our destination soon." The captain said. Elena buckled up and braced herself to see her Mystic Falls friends. As soon as the plane landed Elena got her carryon and went towards luggage pick up. She grabbed hers quckly and went towards a payphone. She put the coin in and dail her home number.

"Hello?"

"Hi Daddy."

"Well if it isn't my daughter little Miss. Runaway." Klaus said unhappy.

"Daddy please stop being angry with me."

"You climbed out your window Elena."

"I know, and I'm sorry."

"Just get back home soon." Klaus said.

"I will and I promise to make this up to you."

"It isn't me you've got got to make it up to. Kol is very sad he doesn't get to see America or a plane."

"He'll come here one day I'm sure, now I have to go. I love you, see you soon." Elena said hanging up the phone.

She smiled and shook her head as she walked away from the pay phone and to the rental car area.

"Excuse me, can I get one of the best cars you got." She said putting a $500.00 bill on the counter. "Uh, sure how does our silver 2013 Lexus EX sound?" "Perfect. Keys please." "Wait, do you want insurance on it?" "Nah. Just the keys." Elena said taking the keys from the man and going to get her new car for the week.

I thought everyone stopped reading this story so I was going to leave it at one chapter, but after being asked recently to update I thought I would continue it. Oh, and Jeremy actually makes an appearance and not text appearance in next chapter.
