"DID you have to send her away?" Fallon turned to face her mother, the Head Witch, as she walked into the room. "Was her curse not enough?"

After Noreen had the curse placed upon her she was moved to another house, away from her ma and grandmother. Somewhere she was hidden away from Elijah and would never be in contact with him again. It pained Fallon enough that her daughter had her powers and voice taken from her but to be moved to another home, to be locked up like a prisoner, was distressing for her. She knew that it was only because she was the granddaughter of the Head Witch, that her life had been spared.

"It had to be done, Fallon." The Head Witch gave her daughter a grim look. "Noreen is to have no contact with him."

Fallon shook her head. "But to be sent away? That's not fair at all, mother!"

"Life is not fair!" The Head Witch snapped. "It's just the way things are. It's for her own good anyways, Fallon."

"I don't even know where she is! My own daughter!" Fallon threw her arms out. She stared at the Head Witch. "She is your granddaughter, mother."

"Which is why she is still alive!" The Head Witch stated. She shook her head. "But she has shamed this clan, this family. She can't go unpunished."

Fallon shook her head, frustrated with the entire situation. She had no idea where her daughter had been sent except that it was far from here. It was to keep her away from Elijah and he wouldn't be able to find her. And even if he did, he would have no way of getting in because he had not been invited.

She glanced at the Head Witch. "You don't think Elijah will come?"

The Head Witch sighed and shook her head. "No. I know he will come."

"He won't be happy." Fallon said.

"He'll feel guilty." The Head Witch said. "An emotion that Elijah is familiar with."

Fallon shook her head and slumped down in a chair beside the fireplace, tired and unbelieving that her mother had easily cast off her own granddaughter. All because she fell in love.


Just as Maggie and Damon were entering the Gilbert house, Elena had been coming from the kitchen. She gave Damon a glare while she gave Maggie a small smile.

Maggie watched as Damon walked into the kitchen. She looked back to Elena and offered a small smile to the girl. "Sorry about him." She mouthed.

Elena shook her head. "Don't apologize for him, Maggie. It's alright." She pulled her into a friendly hug. "I'm just glad you're here."

"Me too." She mouthed and gave her another smile.

"Oh my God!" Jenna had rounded the corner and joined the two girls. She gave Maggie a wide smile before she pulled her into a tight hug. "I haven't seen you in forever!"

Maggie pulled away, laughing silently, while Elena smiled. "Good to see you too." Maggie mouthed slowly.

"Ah, I can read lips." Jenna smiled. "You're the only reason why I allowed Damon here. It seems the only way I get to see you is if I put up with him."

"I'm sorry." Maggie frowned.

Jenna shook her head. "Don't worry about it, Maggie. Not your fault he's a total ass."

Maggie smiled, shaking her head. She had always liked Jenna because she didn't treat her or her mom like outsiders. She knew Maggie's mom from back during the school days and always talked about how green her eyes were, not failing to mention that Maggie had inherited those eyes. Maggie also had owned Jenna a lot because she had helped her take care of her mom after her mom had a really bad drinking incident.

Before going to join Elena, Maggie made her way into the kitchen, spotting Damon and Mason talking while doing shots. She shook her head already getting a bad feeling.

"Hey." Mason smiled at her.

Damon turned and offered her a smile himself. "Mason, this is Maggie."

She stood beside Damon and reached her hand out shaking Mason's, giving him a small smile.

"Maggie!"

Maggie turned around and smiled wide at the sight of Caroline cradling a bowl of chips tight to her chest. She turned back to Damon and Mason giving them each a smile before she walked over and joined Caroline.

She raised an eyebrow at her and Caroline shrugged. "What? Don't judge me."

Maggie held up her hands as she smiled and shook her head. Caroline smiled back at her as they both walked out and joined Elena on the porch. Caroline sat down in the chair beside her while Maggie leaned against the porch railing facing the two girls. Elena was bothered that Stefan hadn't called her back. Maggie offered a smile and a wave of her hand, as if telling her not to worry about it. Stefan was probably busy doing something else.

"He hates that you're a constant temptation." Caroline put another chip into her mouth.

Elena looked at her shocked. "He said that?"

Maggie frowned and gave Caroline a confused look. This wasn't something that Caroline would usually say. It was almost as if she were trying to make Elena feel guilty almost. Stefan would never say that thought aloud and she shook her head at Elena, trying to make her feel better. Maggie was just being hit numerously with bad feelings. She could just tell that something was off with Caroline but she didn't know what.

As Caroline walked inside to get food, Maggie watched her go, before she went to Elena's side. She knelt beside the girl and placed a comforting hand on her arm. She shook her head and looked into the girl's brown eyes.

"Stefan loves you." She mouthed. "He loves being with you, Elena."

Elena smiled at the girl and nodded. "Thanks Maggie."

Maggie sat between Caroline and Ric on the couch as Mason sat bored in the chair. Jenna, who was a little on the drunk side, along with Caroline were guessing enthusiastically at Damon's clue. She didn't know how they had begun to play pictionary but she had become highly amused. But she could feel the tension between Mason and Damon, since Mason had guessed Dances With Wolves and had been correct. So far everything Damon had done involved wolves and Mason would always get it right. He wasn't being very subtle but then again, Damon never was.

Rising from the couch she sent Damon a glare before she joined Elena in the kitchen.

"Aunt Jenna is getting tipsy." Damon smirked, joining the two girls in the kitchen.

He placed his hand on Maggie's lower back, gave her a smirk, and kiss to the side of her head before he walked around the island counter to join Elena.

"Will you stop giving her alcohol." Elena sighed.

"Well I want her to like me." Damon said.

Maggie rolled her eyes. That was not the way to go in order to get someone to like him, especially Jenna. It just wasn't going to work with her because Jenna really hated him.

And then like a little kid in a candy store he spotted Jenna's mother's silver set of silverware. Elena, Maggie and him all shared a look. She looked at Damon and shook her head when she saw the smirk come to his face. This was not going to be good. Not at all.


Maggie was sitting at the table when Damon came over and placed the pie on the table, offering it to Mason first. Damon took the seat beside Maggie not bothering to hide the smirk on his face. She noticed the silver knife and watched Mason carefully. How was he going to avoid this one?

He decided to just grab a piece of pie with his hands. Well, Maggie thought, that's one way.

"Sorry, I'm an animal." Mason smirked.

He was right about that. Alaric then brought up the topic of him and Jenna during high school trying to find out more about that. Maggie just sat silent as always beside Damon, just listening to the conversation. She was just happened that no one had gotten hurt or that Damon hadn't been killed.

"Really? I always pegged you as a lone wolf." Damon smirked, taking a sip of his beer.

Maggie looked over at Ric who had the same look on his face before she turned her attention to Mason, but gave Damon a little kick in the leg, underneath the table. He just glanced at her and smiled before he turned back to Mason.

"Oh I'm sure I wasn't half the lady killer as you were." Mason retorted.

Her head snapped back to Damon and she held her breath for a minute. Maybe she had spoken too soon about no one being hurt and she just wanted the barbeque to be over in that moment.

Maggie felt so awkward being the only teenager there. Ric must have sensed her discomfort and smiled in her direction.

"So Maggie, I hope you don't mind, but I have a personal question." Ric said. "Why didn't you learn sign language?"

She was use to this question. Some people had asked her why she didn't learn it and in all honesty, she didn't have time to. Between school work and watching over her mom, she had her hands full. Plus she didn't mind texting people or writing or mouthing things to people. She had gotten by on that fine enough.

She had taken her notebook out and jotted down her answer, holding it up for Ric to read. "Didn't have time."

"Ah." Ric nodded.

"I'm not surprised." Mason said.

Maggie, along with the others, looked over at him. She looked at him confused.

"With your mom, it's not surprising you didn't have time." Mason said.

Her cheeks went warm and she looked down at the notebook on the table.

"Hey!" Jenna said. "Mason, come on."

Mason held up his hand and shook his head. "I'm not being mean or anything, I'm just saying. I remember how Colleen was."

"She has other ways of communicating." Damon stared at Mason. "Mags is a smart girl."

"Of course. She has you." Mason smirked, staring straight back at him. "She didn't even have to learn it because you're right there and could easily answer for her."

Maggie knew what Mason was doing. He was trying to egg Damon on and she reached under the table, grabbing his hand, and giving it a gentle squeeze. It was her way of telling him not to do anything.

"With her being a mute, you could say whatever you wanted her to say." Mason said.

"Mason!" Jenna snapped again.

Maggie squeezed Damon's hand again as he stared Mason down. She looked up at Jenna who was standing beside Ric and gave her a small smile. She was not going to be the reason as to why everyone was fighting. Plus she didn't want Jenna's barbeque to be ruined.

"She says what she wants, when she wants." Damon said. "God knows she's yelled at me on more than one occasion." He looked over at her and sent her a smile, while wrapping his arm around her shoulders.

Elena and Caroline had left and since Maggie didn't want to be inside the house with the others, she found herself sitting outside on the porch. She was sitting on the steps and had her knees pulled up to her chest. She rested her chin on top of her knees and stared at the ground in front of her.


"Hey."

Maggie turned her head and smiled as Ric joined her and sat down beside her. It was silent for a moment until he looked over at her and laughed softly.

"Well, if I ever need Damon to do something and he's being difficult, I'm coming to you." Ric said.

Maggie nods, knowing he was attempting to make her smile, and she appreciated him for it. But she wasn't really in the most amused mood. Ric shook his head. "You must be something really special if he loves you so much."

She looked at him. "He's always been there for me." She mouthed. "He's really not that bad."

Ric nodded. "That's good."

She was still sitting outside when it had become dark and Mason was leaving. She stood up, holding her bag to her side, as she looked at him carefully. All he did was give her a small smile.

"I'm sorry about all the stuff I said earlier." Mason said. "It wasn't directed toward you but rather toward Damon."

Maggie nodded, still eying him wearily, but she was soon pushed behind none other than Damon who had come to stand beside her, not looking happy. "Keep walking White Fang."

Mason just smirked before he left going to his truck. Maggie looked at Damon as he shrugged and she went inside to give Jenna a good bye hug as well as Ric. When they went to Damon's car, Maggie groaned inwardly.

"We're following Mason?" She asked him.

Damon looked back at her. "You're going into the Grill because you didn't eat anything at the barbeque and I know you're hungry. I'll join you after."

"What are you going to do to him, Damon?" She mouthed.

Damon shook his head. "Just have a little chat."

Maggie again just shook her head. Nothing was ever easy when it came to Damon and she just wanted to go home and curl up in her bed after taking a hot shower.

She was sitting beside Damon at the Grill and was happy that he had come in all in one piece. She had ordered a thing of fries and was eating them when she spotted Stefan and Elena both looking stressed and worried walked in. She frowned and watched as they argued with it ending with Elena walking out.

She felt bad for Elena and when she saw Stefan's face she frowned, feeling even worse but also that something wasn't right there. Seeing the smirk formed on Damon's face she punched him in the arm.

"Don't be mean." Maggie mouthed.

As they walked out of the Grill, Damon threw his arm around Maggie's shoulders, smiling at her. "Time to get you home to bed. You've had a long day."

Maggie smiled and nodded, agreeing with him. She laid her head against her chest, closing her eyes for a moment.

"Bad day?"

Her light green eyes snapped opened as Damon dropped his arm from her shoulders. She tensed as she stared at Katherine who was leaning casually against the wall. It amazed Maggie how much Elena really did look like Katherine, it was sort of frightening.

"Bad century." Damon said.

Katherine smirked and then moved her attention to Maggie. "Well, well, so you're the mute powerless witch."

Damon put his arm in front of Maggie as if to shield her from Katherine. "Leave her be, Katherine."

Katherine pushed off from the wall and rolled her eyes. "Relax Damon. I'm not dumb enough to hurt her. I'm not suicidal."

Maggie and Damon both looked at her confused. And then Katherine smirked and looked at Damon. "You're not the only one protective of your dear sweet Maggie."

But the comment was soon pushed to the side when Katherine and Damon began talking about werewolves and what not. Maggie didn't pay attention because she was too busy thinking about what she had said about her. Who else did she mean was protecting her?


When Maggie had finally returned back home she went up to her room and closed the door. She put her messenger bag on top of her bed before she sat down on it and took a moment to breathe. Today had been a long day and she didn't even want to try and figure out what Katherine had meant.

Not knowing why, but Maggie opened her bag up, and pulled her mom's journal out. She decided that she wanted to know more about her mom. About herself.

"You sent her away?"

The Head Witch didn't bother to turn away from the window that she was looking out. She knew that he would eventually come and she was not surprised.

"Yes. Somewhere safe." She answered and turned to look at the original vampire.

Elijah stared at her. "She's your own granddaughter, Maura."

"Noreen needed to be punished. She should have been killed for her crime but I spared her life because she is my blood." The Head Witch answered.

"Crime? Our love is a crime?" Elijah asked.

"Yes." The Head Witch said. "You're an abomination upon this Earth."

Elijah took a few steps forward, his dark brown eyes staring directly at the older woman in front of him. "I won't stop loving her. I'll find her and be with her again."

"I'm protecting my family." The Head Witch looked at him.

"I love her." Elijah said. "I don't care that she has no powers and that you've made her a mute. I love her still. We can be cursed together."

The Head Witch watched the vampire carefully and shook her head. "When she comes back, in the future, she won't remember you."

"Yes she will." Elijah said. "One does not forget a love like this."

"And if she doesn't?" The Head Witch asked.

He shook his head. "I won't forget her."

"You don't know how long it will take for her to be returned. It could be years, centuries, Elijah." She said.

"I'll wait for as long as I need to for her, Maura." Elijah said. "She was punished because of her love for me. Waiting centuries for her is the least I can do."
