« So, how's the 'Sleeping Beauty'? » I asked Jo, when she entered the room.
I arrived there ten minutes ago, greeted by the professor who was to be the toy in love with my sister. After what happened this afternoon with Lena, I had decided to leave her with Jo, and go home to recover a little more energy, leaving space to my sister, because of ... this strange situation.
When I arrived, Alaric had informed me of the state of Lena. He thought that I cared about her. He believed true, but I didn't say anything. Not that I cared about her condition, but Lena was the only source of entertainment that I had. Because of her, I didn't think about Bonnie, or what I made her endure, and Damon and his small band of friends.
« Good. She fainted, but she's fine, she sleeps. Anyway, let's do this. » Jo said, nervous.
« Me, our coven, and the prisons world, thank you. » I said, slightly relieved.
« What exactly is this other prison world ? » Alaric aksed.
« Place filled of creepy people like me, I'm sure. » I replied ironically to him. « Congrats. You save their miserable life of oblivion. » I said to my sister, sarcastic.
She looked at me, uncertain and stressed.
« Oh don't look so stressed. » I joked pricking her cheeks as I did to annoy her, as before.
She sighed and pulled away, still silent.
« You never liked being a witch anyway. » I continued to tease her.
« Shut up. » She said, tired of me.
She placed her hands on my cheeks, and everything began. I closed my eyes.
She recited a spell, and a current of air shook the room. I concentrated as best as I could, focused on her voice. A light illuminated us, who indicated the merge. And then, ten seconds later, everything stopped.
I felt everything. The magic in my veins, the feeling of superiority. I finally felt complete. I was no longer that abomination, which has no power. This guy who is without power. The stranger of the family. And the little click that I had seconds rather came to mind.
My sister was pregnant.I opened my eyes and sighed in satisfaction.
« It's done. » She said simply.
« Thank you. » I said back, satisfied. « And congratulation. » I smiled.
She looked at me, lost, not knowing what I was talking. I approached slowly from her ear, and confessed her this surprising news. I was slightly happy. But I didn't know why. Glad to get out of her life, and to have no more chances to see her again? Or happy for her ... Stupid Luke, and his human emotions.
I took her face slightly in section, and looked into her eyes.
« Have a good life, sissy. » I said, sincerely.
I stepped back, still staring. She stared back at me, silent, shocked. I took my jacket, watching Alaric in the eye corner, and headed for the office.
I opened the door and saw Lena, lying on a couch. She was curled up on herself, and frowned, asleep. I stood there, looking at her for several seconds. I had confessed that she was really cute. She was peaceful, but frightened. Maybe another dream.
I approached her silently and spread my jacket on her. I sighed and tried to carry her as gently as possible. She moaned, and waved when I lifted, but remained motionless. I held my breath, and, carrying her, began to direct me to the exit. I didn't paid attention to Jo and Alaric, and left the apartment, carrying the Sleeping Beauty.

« Why should we do that anyway? It's pathetic. » I sighed, clasping my hands behind my back.
« Because your mother asked us to do this. » My father replied by tapping at the door of our new neighbors. « We smile, said hello, presents ourself, and we come back at home. »
I smiled, and the door opened.
A girl stood before us. Brown, blue eyes, of about my age I think. She was quite pretty, and seemed nice. She smiled at us and said:
« Hi, can I do something for you? »
« Hello, we're your new neighbors. We just moved across the street. I'm Andrew Peterson, and this is my daughter, Lena. My wife wanted to bring you this pannier of pastries. She would have wanted to give it to you in person but she is very busy redecorating our living room. » My father said, smiling politely.
« It's really very nice. My name Josette, but call me Jo. My parents are not there, but I'm sure you will meet them soon. You want come in? » She said, taking the basket that handed her my father, smiling.
« I think I'll back to my wife and help her, but Lena, you can always stay. Learn some things about the town, university, and all that. » My father said, smiling at me.
Traitor. But he may be right?
« Sure, why not. » I finally said, smiling at Josette. « I'll be back for dinner, and told Mom not to come in my room. »
My father laughed and said goodbye to our neighbor before leaving. I turned to Josette, slightly embarrassed, and she smiled at me by making me come into her house.
The interior was decorated simply and beautifully. I noticed several portraits hanging at the entrance, of several people.
« That's a lot of portrait. » I said, observing each of them.
« We are a large family. At the top, these are my parents, Joshua and our dear mother, Tatiana. Then there is me and my twin brother, Malachai. I advise you to call him Kai, he doesn't really love his real name. Then there is my two brother Joey and Aaron, and my two sisters, Sarah and Helene. And here are the last two small, twins, Luke and Olivia. »
« Large family ? » I repeated, laughing. « If I am good, you are eight, and two sets of twins? »
« You're good. » A voice said.
I turned to the stairs, a little further to my right and saw a brown boy, blue eyes, dressed with a simple steevedore black and dark jeans, with boots. He was stylish ... and I must admit, really handsome. Leaning against a wall, he observed us, and finally look at me high and down, as to analyze me.
« We hadn't heard you, sorry. Lena, this is my twin, Kai. Brother, I present you our new neighbor, Lena Peterson, if not mistaken? » Josette said, placing a hand on my shoulder.
I nodded, still looking at her brother. He said nothing, always analyzing me. Finally, he shrugged as if he didn't care and went to a room on the ground floor, quiet. I didn't understand.
« Don't take it for you. We are a family rather ... we will say that we are not like the others. He's not always like that, I can assure you. » His sister sighed, with a little smile.
« No problem... So, any advice for a new one? »
I woke up suddenly. First of all, I saw slightly blurred. My head ached slightly, and when I tried to sit up, I fell back on a couch. I don't know where I was, I was completely lost. And the memories came back to me.
My face fell, and I sat up abruptly. My vision became clearer, and I felt a smell of... pancakes?
" Look who just woke up. " A voice said behind me.
I got up suddenly, my heart beating rapidly, and saw Kai, with a plate of pancakes and waffles. He smiled slightly, as if nothing had happened.
" Want some? "
What do you think? You liked it?
Have a wonderful weekend! ;)
Je vous aime, xo.
