A/N: Here is the third chapter/episode. I hope you like it.

Friday Night Bites

Parker sat in her classroom starring out the window, there was about fifteen minutes before class actually started. She watched as Tyler threw a football at Stefan, obviously thinking it would hit him in the back of the head. Parker leaned back in her chair laughing at Tyler's dumbstruck face. After a couple more minutes Parker got ready for her class to come in and start the the middle of the day Parker had heard about Tanner getting 'Tannered' by Stefan. As soon as she had heard about it she high fived him as soon as he stepped foot into her classroom.

"You know, Stefan, the only other person to do that was me, right," Parker asked him while she passed out papers.

"Oh really? Over what, may I ask?" Stefan asked looking at her along with everyone else in the classroom.

"A lot of stuff actually, as much of a wild child as I was, and still am mind you, I read a lot of books. I also enjoyed history almost as much. Thus the reason I happen to be your English teacher today." Parker said before switching the subject of matter to the day's assignments.

At the end of the day, Parker, walked to the area that the cheerleaders practiced at; upon her arrival she realized that Caroline wasn't there yet. 'Where is that girl? She hasn't been here all day, not very Caroline like.' Then she saw her little sister and Bonnie, walking over to them she had ever girl there looking at her as she walked.

"Where is Caroline?" Parker asked looking down at the two girls both shrugging and looking around for the absent blonde.

"Not a clue, but hey will you cook dinner tonight? I asked Stefan and Bonnie to come over," Elena said looking up at her big sister with a pouty look on her face.

"Yeah we don't want to give Stefan food poisoning before he tries her amazing food." Bonnie said with a laugh before everyone turned to the parking lot as music blasted from a blue Camaro.

Parker watched as Damon parked the car and kissed Caroline goodbye before she got out of the car. Caroline was wearing a scarf as she walked with a smirk on her face to Elena. But Parker completely ignored her as she glared at Damon who smirked at Elena and then at her. But when he smirked at her she flipped him off with a smirk of her own; causing him to frown before he drove off.

"Ms. Forbes, you missed an entire day of school but still managed to show up for practice. Next time it happens, you will have a detention in my classroom." Parker said turning to the smirking blonde, causing her eyes to widen and her smirk to fall from her face.

"Yes Parker," Caroline said before going into cheer captain mode. Parker ignored her and walked to her car and getting in. In her passenger seat was a note neatly folded with a black ribbon tied to it. Cautiously she picked it up and read it:

Parker,

Zach told me about how you knew that Damon and I are vampires. I didn't want to bring it up in school while everyone was around; I wasn't sure if Elena knew about us, but now I realize she doesn't. Thank you for keeping my secret, talk to you tonight at dinner.

Stefan

Parker folded the note back up and put it in her purse before she pulled out of the parking lot and drove to her house. once home she took her work stuff to her room, she took out the note Stefan left her and put it in a box under her floor board in her closet. A little while later Elena came home and walked into her room as she was finishing up a sketch of Elena and Stefan from that morning.

"Hey, what you doing? Are you going to make dinner for me, or should I use left overs?" Elena asked plopping down on her sisters' bed causing Parker to smile.

"I'm drawing something for you, and yes I was planning on starting to cook as soon as I was done with this. Just give me a second." Parker said adding the finishing touches to her drawing before hand it to Elena who gasped at it.

"Oh my god, Park this is amazing," Elena said looking at her sister and then remembering something. "Hey, um I'm sorry about how me and Jenna have been snapping at you. We know how old you are, and I know you're my big sister. I'm going to stop with the entire medication thing. I know it's your choice."

"It's alright Elliot, now if you will excuse me. I have a dinner to make, I'm making lasagna." Parker said before getting up and running down the stairs starting to cook. At seven thirty Bonnie showed up, her and Elena walking into the kitchen to watch Parker Cook.

"Why didn't you major in Culinary? You are one of the best cooks I know." Bonnie said as Elena and her started getting stuff and setting the table.

"Bonnie it was my minor, I majored in English. So what's this I hear about you being a witch?" Parker asked putting garlic bread in a bowl.

"Ok you explain this, last night I was watching 9-0 , commercial break comes on and I'm like, I bet it's that phone commercial. And sure enough it is." Bonnie said really getting hyped up.

"Oh come on, so what that commercial is like on a constant loop." Elena said laughing handing her a bowl.

"Ok fine, how about this? Today I'm obsessed with numbers. Three numbers, I keep seeing eight, 14, and 22. How weird is that?" Bonnie asked putting salad stuff in their bowls.

"Maybe we should play the lottery, Park would you play the lottery?" Elena asked sounding serious at first before laughing. "Have you talked to your grams?"

"No, she'll just say it's because I'm a witch." Bonnie said looking at Elena pouting, "I don't want to be a witch, do you?"

"I don't want to be a witch, how bout you Park?" Elena said turning to look at her sister who was pouring herself a glass of their dad's old scotch.

"Babe, my head is already so messed up. It would probably explode it I was a witch." Parker said causing both girls to laugh at her as she drank.

"Serving spoons, where are the serving spoons?" Elena said turning around looking for the spoons. 'lived here her entire life, doesn't know where we put serving spoons?'

"Middle drawer on your left." Bonnie said causing Parker to raise her eyebrow as Elena opened the drawer.

"Ok, so you've been in this kitchen like a thousand times." Elena said walking back to the counter.

"Yeah, that's it." Bonnie said as the doorbell rang. Elena started freaking a little before answering the door. "Birthday candles?" Bonnie opened the drawer with the candles in it.

"Well if you aren't a witch, then you sure are clairvoyant." Parker said causing Bonnie to turn to her with a questioning look.

"I took your grandmothers college classes Bobby." Parker said with a smirk before Stefan and Elena came into the room. "I've got some papers to grade yet, don't cause any trouble kiddies. I'll be back down in a couple minutes shouldn't take me long."

Up in her room Parker finished grading the papers; she grabbed her jacket before heading back down stairs to find them sitting in the living room. Damon and Caroline had joined them.

"You don't seem like the cheerleader type Elena." Damon said nobody having noticed Parker entering the room.

"Oh it's just because her parents died. She's just totally, going through a 'blah' phase." Caroline said before feeling a whack to the back of her head grabbing it and turning to see Parker standing there.

"Oh, did I hurt you? I'm so sorry; not really, don't forget I won't hesitate to throw you out the door, again." Parker said in a stern voice causing Caroline to shrink back into Damon. Parker then turned to Elena, "I'm going Sarah's house, don't wait up little sis."

"Ok, tell her I said hi." Elena said before mouthing a thank you to her sister when every one was looking at Parker.

Parker walked to her car before getting in and driving to her best friend's house and walking in without knocking. "Honey I'm home," Parker yelled walking into the kitchen to see her best friend starring at a box trying to read the instructions and cook at the same time.

"I don't have any measuring cups PG, how am I supposed to make mac and cheese without them?" Sarah said as her green eyes met Parker's brown eyes.

"Oh for the love of god Sarah move, I'll do it." Parker said before taking over the cooking of the boxed food. Sarah just walked to a chair and sat down watching her best friend cook. Her black and pink hair pulled back into a ponytail. Once Parker finished cooking she handed her the cooked food.

"PG, you are my life saver." Sarah said before eating her food.

"What would you do without me? So um I was just wondering, is that offer you gave me still standing?" Parker asked looking over at her friend who just smiled at her.

"You want to do it? You seriously want to move in, hell yeah my offer still stands." Sarah yelled jumping up and hugging her best friend.

"Sweet, but you can't tell anyone about it. I have to tell my family first, then we have to set my bedroom up and well yeah." Parker said both girls jumping up and down.

Two hours later Parker sat on her bed in her house, she could here her little sister gasp awake in her room down the hall. She just passed it off and continued with getting ready for bed. Coming out of her bathroom she took one of the pills Jeremy had given her before she lied down and went to bed.

PAGE BREAK

The next day Parker walked through the throng of teens as she made her way around making sure nobody got into trouble. That's when she saw Stefan and Elena kiss making her smile, her smile disappeared when she saw Caroline walk up to Elena. Deciding to just leave her sister to it she walked away. Soon she came upon Mr. Tanner writing something on his clipboard.

"Do you ever not look serious or constipated?" Parker asked walking up to him causing him to laugh, "Oh my god, has hell frozen over? Coach Tanner just laughed."

"Let me guess, you would rather be playing football on the field today? Or even cheer again." Tanner said looking at her.

"Hey not my fault I play football better than most those little boys out there. Too bad I joined cheerleading because the other schools teams didn't like getting their asses handed to them by a little girl." Parker said laughing at the memories.

"Good day Parker, I have stuff to do." He said walking away as Elena walked up to her giving her a look.

"Call the presses; did Parker Gilbert just flirt with Mr. Tanner? Careful sis, people might start believing those rumors from when you went to high school." Elena said with a laugh as Parker pushed her away.

That night as Parker walked out of the crowd looking for Jeremy she saw Tyler Starting to pound on her little brother, as Vicki tried to get him to stop. She ran over to them as a crowd started to gather. Stefan was walking over as well having heard the fight.

"Tyler stop it this instant." Parker said through her teeth as she ran over. Tyler didn't stop and just kept hitting Jeremy. Stefan stepped forward to grab Tyler, but before he could Parker walked up to him and flipped him on the ground away from her brother. "Enough," Parker Almost growled as Tyler stood up as Jeremy lunged at him with the bottle, Stefan Stepping in front of them.

"Jeremy, put your head up you're bleeding," Elena said running to Jeremy.

"I'm Fine," Jeremy said pushing Elena away.

"Yeah you smell fine," Elena replied pushing the issue.

"Just stop, ok?" Jeremy said walking away.

Parker rolled her eyes at her little sister as Elena noticed Stefan's hand. Instead of paying attention to them she ran after Jeremy as he walked away. Once by the bleacher's she caught up to him and grabbed his arm.

"Come on not you to," Jeremy said turning to her.

"I'm not going to yell at you, kids a dick. I'm not going to argue with you over how I feel about Vicki, but I am going to help you get cleaned up. Come with me you're bleeding." Parker said walking to her car, fully knowing her brother would follow her. Once to the car she pulled out her mini-first aid kit.

"How come you're the only one that doesn't try to make me talk? Doesn't try and get me to stop." Jeremy asked her as she cleaned the blood from his face.

"Because Jer, I'm not stupid, I know exactly why you got into the drugs. They think I've moved on from mom and dad's death, but the thing is Jeremy. I haven't, I drink to numb the pain. After they died, remember I didn't touch any alcohol until after the funeral. Then I was hammered for a week straight." Parker said scoffing at her foolishness.

"What made you stop?" Jeremy asked sitting on the trunk of her car.

"That's the funny thing Jer, I didn't. I just realized that, it only numbed how I felt. Drinking didn't take away my pain, just numbed it for a little while." Parker said putting the kit away and sitting next to him. "Mom always told me I was going to grow up and have a family. She said I would get married and have a son and daughter. She had my life mapped out perfectly for me, saying she was going to be there with me, very step of the way."

Jeremy smiled looking at her before saying, "Yeah and she said that dad would have the mayor and some of his other friends come over just to scare any guy that tried to date you. I miss them, Parker."

"I know bro, I miss them to," Parker said putting her arm around her brother and leaning her head on his shoulder.

A/N: So how did you guys like it, I know it almost seems weird the way I ended it, but now you see her soft side. Something you should know about her, is she doesn't show it often. Next chapter She will tell her siblings and aunt Jenna about her moving in with her best friend (Take a guess at how I decided her name). Thank you so much for reading.
