Glancing over her shoulder, she wondered if anyone had heard him. "Maybe having this conversation here isn't the best idea." She suggested then turned back to face him, holding a hand out to help him up she suddenly realized that it wasn't that easy. Retracting her gesture she simply watched as he pulled himself up off the ground.

Assessing the palms of his hands Jeremy winced a bit. Several shards of glass were now trapped inside of his skin and they were bleeding. "Great." He grumbled before heading out to the bathroom across the hall. Bonnie followed. "Then where do you suppose we talk?" He whispered back to her.

Nibbling on her bottom lip she thought of a place they could escape to. "Um, just say you need some fresh air. We can walk around the neighborhood." They hadn't done that in forever, it would be nice to do. Even if she weren't exactly there with him.

Jeremy chuckled lightly. "And have all my neighbors think I'm crazy? Having a full on conversation with no one. Good idea Bon." She wanted to jokingly shove him but she couldn't, this whole spirit without a body thing really sucked.

"Use your cellphone as a decoy dummy." Sharing a silent moment together as he fished out the glass shards in the sink, a knock came at the open door. Turning around Jeremy found Damon with a look that asked for answers.

Glancing from Jeremy's surprised and suspicious face to his bloodied palms, Damon folded his arms. "So uh, what happened?" He looked over at him slightly inclining his chin upward.

"Fell into some broken glass in my room." Jeremy answered him abruptly. Bonnie shook her head as if too say that he'd blown his cover and Jeremy tried to ignore how adorable she looked.

Squinting his eyes Damon took a step in. "Broken glass? You fell?"

"Yeah," Jeremy decided not to look Damon in the eyes and focused back down on his hands. "I knocked a picture frame off my bookshelf. And kneeling down I lost my balance and fell over onto the glass. You don't believe me or something? Would you like to see the crime scene?" His voice was agitated and from past experience it was the only way to get Damon off your case.

Closing his eyes Damon smirked. "No, we just smelled blood from downstairs. Elena wanted me to make sure you weren't up here." He opened them once more and made a gesture to his wrist. They all—including Bonnie—knew what he was referring to.

"Well, I don't do that anymore. So you can go back downstairs, and continue to be my sister's doormat." Jeremy mumbled the last bit. Narrowing his eyes at the back of his head Damon took another step forward.

"Excuse me?" He questioned although he'd heard him loud and clear.

Giving up on the task of removing the shards Jeremy huffed then turned around to look Damon in the eyes. "Did I say anything untrue?" It was a bold move to make and Bonnie was both shocked and a little turned on. This side of Jeremy was a keeper, even if it got him killed. And then the thought of him dead quickly abolished all signs of intrigue.

"Okay Jeremy, that's enough." She warned him.

Sizing him up Damon finally relaxed, gripping him by the shoulder he frowned. "No, not really. Look I wouldn't speak on this otherwise but seeing as how we're in the same predicament." He began and they all knew what he meant. Bonnie was unsure if she wanted to stick around and listen to this, after all she was—well her physical body—the reason. "I would say that nice guys finish last, but I'm not that nice." He smiled wickedly.

"Then why do you keep trying to win her over?" Jeremy asked truly interested in his answer.

Pursing his lips for a moment while he thought about the question, Damon let go of him. "Because, without her, life would be pointless. And no amount of compelled bimbos would make a difference." With that Damon left the bathroom and Jeremy stared down at his hands. The blood had stopped flowing and he would need to bandage his hands after removing the last to large pieces.

"Whoa," Bonnie whispered. "Damon being emotional? That's a new one." She joked trying to lighten the mood but she failed miserably.

Not caring to look at her, Jeremy finished working on his hands. "Lets just head out."

Nodding she followed him down the stairs and stopped when he did as well in front of the others. Klaus and Analeese remained sitting next to each other while the others were spread out amongst the room. They'd walked in on them discussing their plans about the Mikeal problem.

"Jeremy, what happened to your hands?" Elena questioned, worry breaking through in her voice.

Raising a hand he reassured her he was fine. "Nothing, honestly, look I'm going for a walk. Calm me if you need anything." Glancing quickly at Damon before leaving Jeremy shuddered at the sight of Bonnie and Klaus.

"Its not me you know." She assured him, knowing what was wrong. "It's my psycho ancestor Analeese." She grumbled. As they headed down the walkway to the sidewalk Jeremy pulled his phone out of his pocket and pretended to dial in case someone was watching from the window.

Holding it to his ear he finally began to talk, "Analeese? Why would she do that?" He wanted to look at her but thought best not to until they'd made it all the way down the block and around the corner.

Blowing out a huge gust of air Bonnie squinted her eyes. "Because she's still in love with Klaus and she's an insane witch who wants to become immortal and isn't afraid to kill off every last Bennett witch to do so." Regardless of where they were Jeremy's jaw dropped as he stared at her.

"Wait, what? She can do that?" He felt so dumb holding his cellphone when he wasn't actually talking to anyone on it. Pressing her lips together into a thin tight line Bonnie shrugged her shoulders.

"When she was still alive she tried, and it killed her. Now everyone on the other side is afraid she's figured out how and will succeed while she's in my body."

Still with his mouth open Jeremy quickly processed it all. "That's insane, if she succeeds then you'll be dead or stuck on the other side and so will all the other Bennetts. And she's doing all of this because she loves Klaus?" It surprised her how quickly he'd caught on to it all, just another reason why she was in love with him she supposed. "Well its pretty obvious she has to be stopped but how is the question? If she was able to swap out your spirit with hers while she was dead then there's no telling how powerful she is now that she's—alive so to speak."

Bonnie frowned, "I know—that's why you have to convince the others that I'm not really who I say I am." As they continued to walk Jeremy was mindful of who all stood close by. An old man sat on his porch reading the newspaper. Two little girls played in the front yard with their dolls. He didn't want to say the wrong thing in front of anyone. And surely talking about proving to his vampire friends that a girl who they love is actually a very old spirit plotting to become immortal was the wrong thing.

"Firstly, I highly doubt they'll believe me especially when its coming from me. And secondly, can we go to the cemetery or something so I can just talk to you and not use this?" He held out his cellphone. Nodding her head they crossed the intersection and headed for Mystic Falls' Cemetery. Not too many people hung out there just a couple of stoners occasionally it was a pretty good place too look like you were going insane. People would just chalk it up to you talking to a loved one.

Bonnie could feel something pulling her in a different direction, it was like someone was calling out to her. "Jer, give me a second." She held out a finger and before he could protest she was gone. She popped up at town square where Anna stood in front of the old bar that had burned down back on Founders Day with her in it. "How very morbid," Bonnie greeted her dryly.

Turning to face her Anna's eyes were puffy as if she were crying. Bonnie had no idea you could do that on the other side. "Did he hear you? Did you make contact? Is he still angry at me? I've been trying to get a hold of him ever since he made me leave."

Folding her arms Bonnie stared at her unmoving. "From the girl who said she understood that they were just friends—you seem a little too upset."

Rolling her puffy eyes Anna shook her head. "Aside from my mother, I have no one to talk to. I am, was fine with just being Jeremy's friend. I worked my ass off to be his friend again." She stated matter-of-factly and Bonnie felt a ping of sympathy.

Loosening up a bit she sighed silently. "Yeah I got his attention. I was just with him, I actually have to go. I'll tell him to let you back in." Anna smiled gratefully at her and then Jeremy stood before her once more, this time in the cemetery. "Sorry about that."

Raising an eyebrow Jeremy sat on a bench staring up at her. "Where'd you go?"

Figuring she should keep her word Bonnie rolled her eyes. "That was Anna, she wanted to know if it worked."

"Oh," it was all he said back.

Judging his tone, Bonnie knew he didn't want to talk about her but she had no choice. "You can release her from banishment land. She was only trying to help me get to you. Surprisingly. Although I'm still not sure if I like the idea of you two still talking."

Jeremy smiled at her, he loved her being jealous. "You can't make that call you're with Klaus." He teased even though it was sort of true.

Looking down into his puppy dog like brown eyes she felt her heart skip a beat. "No I'm not," the words escaped from her lips before she could put a proper leash on them. She watched as his expression changed to a delightful shock. "Analeese is with Klaus—" she cleaned up and watched as his lips twitched to a somewhat frown. "I'm here with you." She finally ended with that, wanting to kick herself in the ass. Good going she mentally noted as she couldn't verbalize it in front of him.

"Right," he began slowly. "So, how am I supposed to out Analeese to everyone else?" Bonnie was thankful of his subject change and she hoped she didn't show it too much on her face.

Concentrating on the spot next to him, she tried to make herself weighted. Then finally she tested out her new found gift and sat down successfully. She noted the impressed look on his face and could only feel smug about herself. "Memories." She exclaimed.

"What about 'em?" He asked, unable to follow along.

"Bring up as many memories that we shared, that Caroline, Elena, Stefan even Damon and I shared! She won't have any recollection of them. It'll throw her for a loop, and if you do it while someone else is around—" she trailed off watching as he caught on.

"They'll realize something is wrong. And I won't look like the crazy ex-boyfriend that much." He smiled his goofy smile. "Very smart."

Grinning she stared at him. "Thanks." They shared another silent moment together, gazing into each others eyes. "Oh!" She started as she suddenly remembered something. "You have to keep a close eye on her. Follow her around even."

Jeremy didn't like the sound of this especially after that menacing glare Klaus gave him earlier today. To follow her around meant possibly setting Klaus off and ultimately dying. "Why?" He asked tentatively.

"To see if she's preparing for the spell that will make her immortal. I mean obviously I'll keep an eye on her as well. But it's not like I can actually stop or even cripple the process." Bonnie ran a hand through her hair.

Furrowing his brow Jeremy didn't like the sound of this. "I'm sure Klaus will be conjoined at your hip, I won't have to do it." He also didn't like the idea of Klaus being with Bonnie twenty-four seven, getting to hold her hand, kiss her lips or worse. But then he realized it wouldn't actually be Bonnie, but nevertheless he didn't like it.

"Jeremy." She warned him sternly.

"Alright, alright I'll watch you—er, her like a hawk. You happy?" He asked a little peeved.

"You have no idea." She replied sweetly and he couldn't stay mad at her. "I should probably go check in with Grams." Jeremy's eyebrows raised at the name.

"How's she doing?" He asked cautiously unsure of what its been like for her grandmother on the other side.

Bonnie stifled a laugh. "Great actually, she's like on some witchy board or something. I'll see you back at the house?"

"Without a doubt." Jeremy smiled happy to hear about her grandmother and the fact that she'd be with him later no matter what state she was in.

"See ya Jer."

"Later Bon." His smiled sweetly just before her location changed.
