Aalleeyah POV:
Well last night was… interesting. Having sex with Leo for the first time was… interesting. I'm not saying it was bad or anything it was just lacking something. I have no idea what but its something big. Something that should be there but just wasn't. Something I had with Damon. Sighing, I look to over at Leo. Sure, he's cute but I guess he's no blue eyed devil. God why cant I stop thinking about Damon? I don't love him anymore. I refuse to believe I do. I need to stop thinking about this.


Third person POV:
Getting out of the warm bed, Aalleeyah steps into the cold in the nude. Quickly grabbing Leo's discarded shirt, she puts it on before leaving the room. She walks into the empty kitchen and makes herself some coffee.
"Hey Leeyah" Jeremy greets as he enters
"What's up Jer?"
"Did Leo sleep over last night?" Jeremy wonders, looking at her attire
"Shut up" She rolls her eyes
"What are your plans for today?" She asks as she sips on her coffee
"Tyler and I are hanging out"
"Cool, I'm coming with you" Aalleeyah announces before going to walk towards the stairs
"What, why?"
"Because I feel like it" She simply answers before making her way to her bedroom where a sleeping Leo remains. Sighing, she starts to shake him
"Leo. You gotta get up" He slowly opens his eyes and lazily smiles when he sees her.
"Hey baby" He greets tiredly
"You gotta go, I got shit to do" She throws his shirt at him before changing herself.


Mystic Falls, outside.
Elena is taking a jog through out Mystic Falls. She checks her watch then turns around to head home when she sees a man running in her direction. She turns around again and jogs that way. The man continues to follow her. Elena, now feeling extremely paranoid, speeds up as she turns a corner. After a short time, she gives up and looks behind her and finds the man no longer following her. She sighs in relief and clams before looking back in front of her only to walk right into the man from before.
"Excuse me. Should have been watching where I was going." The man apologises
"Don't worry about it." Elena smiles kindly
"Have a nice day." He jogs off as Elena watches him


Mystic Grill
Elena and Bonne are seated at a table.
"I feel like I'm going crazy. Totally paranoid all the time." Elena confesses
"You have a right to be. Klaus is still out there and he knows you tried to kill him. " Bonnie sympathises
"Why hasn't he made a move? There has been no sign of him. Nothing. Just my slow spiral into insanity."
"Join the club. Every time I close my eyes, I have that nightmare. On repeat."
"The same dream?" "Yeah! Four coffins, Klaus is in one of them. It's weird."
"What if it´s not just some dream? What if it´s like... you know... witch dream?"
"It's just stress. I'll figure it out. And what about Stefan? Has there been any sign of him?"
"He betrayed us Bonnie. The Stefan that we know is gone." Elena sadly answers.
"What about Aalleeyah?"
"Haven't seen her, thank god."
"How is Damon handling it?" Bonnie wonders
"Damon is... Damon."


The Bar

"Oh, I give you a choice. Bloody Mary or Screw Driver. Brunch in a bottle. Come on Ric, I can´t drink all this by myself. I mean I can but then somebody's getting naked. Oh man I can't believe you're making me drink alone." Damon complains
"I'm busy." Alaric's sighs
"It's the eve of Klaus-ageddon. You´re doing homework?"
"This may come as a shock but I am not here to hang out with you. I´m here to see Jeremy. Who is an hour late for his shift."
"Kids today... Where are their values?"
"That's his mid-term paper. Copied it straight off the internet. Didn't even try to hide it." Alaric shows him the completely copied essay
"Ohh, somebody's getting grounded." Damon mocks as a girl walks past the two
"Did you say you are waiting for Jeremy—as in Jeremy Gilbert?" She questions
"Yeah."
"He was fired last week. "
"Oops."


The Woods

Jeremy, Aalleeyah and Tyler are together in the woods. Jeremy has a crossbow and is shooting cans down with it.
"Nice shot!" Tyler appreciates
"So what's the point of this again?" Jeremy asks
"The point is I'm pissed at Caroline and Bonnie dumped your ass and Aalleeyah… everyone hates you. The point is to get drunk and shoot stuff." Tyler shrugs while Aalleeyah glares at him then punches him in the shoulder
"Profound." Jeremy comments as he reloads the crossbow
"Alaric finds out I took this he is gonna use it on me." Jeremy informs
"So what's the deal with that? He is like your guardian now?"
"Sort of, yeah. I think he feels responsible for us. You know since Jenna left"
"Yeah, when is Jenna getting back?" Tyler questions. Aalleeyah suddenly feels guilty. She hasn't really talked to Jenna much since she left. She probably should text her soon
"Soon we hope. But I guess Alaric will do for now" Aalleeyah answers
"Do you like him?"
"Yeah. Yeah—I like him." Jeremy replies as he aims the crossbow but sees Tyler in the way.
"You wanna move out of the way?!"
"I'm a hybrid, Gilbert. You can't kill me unless you cut off my head or rip out my heart. And you're not gonna do it with that lame ass crossbow! Go ahead! Take a shot! Unless you don't think you can hit me." Tyler baits and Aalleeyah rolls her eyes at her ex-boyfriends immaturity. She watches Jeremy aim the crossbow and fire but before Tyler catches the arrow with a smug smirk.
"Calm down, you caught an arrow, not that big of a deal" Aalleeyah comments and Tyler's smirk drops.
"Anyway, you two children have fun playing with your little toys and I'm gonna head to the Grill to get drunk off my ass" She says then begins to walk off
"It's 10 in the morning" Jeremy argues
"Don't care" She yells back without turning to face them


Mystic Grill

Elena's on the phone, leaving a voicemail from Jeremy while Damon shots darts.
"Jeremy, the minute that you get this call me!" Elena shouts and then hangs up
"Unbelievable!" She complains
"You are feisty when you are mad." Damon teases
"It's not that I'm mad. I'm just—I'm worried.
"But why? He lost his job at the Grill. He can survive, Elena."
"He is spiraling. Ever since Bonnie broke up with him, he is moody, he is not really talking to anyone."
"It's typical teenager." Damon argues
"Who's seeing ghosts and has lost everyone that he cares about."
"Not everyone. He still has you."
"You okay?"
"What makes you think I'm not OK?"
"Well, you're daydrunk. It's not exactly your most attractive look."
"Hmm- what is my most attractive look?" Damon wonders, wearing a sexy smirk as he approaches her
"Ah, ah- I'm not saying you have any attractive looks. I'm saying this is my least favourite one…" Elena defends
"Noted. See if I can make any improvements."
Klaus: Don't mind me." Klaus' voice interrupts their semi intimate moment. They look to the him and finds he is seated nearby. He then walks over to them
"Klaus." Elena reluctantly greets
"You gonna do this in the Grill? In front of everyone? It's a little beneath you, don't you think?" Damon says
"I don't know what you are talking about. I just came down to my local pub to grab a drink with a mate." Klaus answers as the jogger from this morning shows up behind him
"Get a round in, would you Tony?" Klaus smiles, looking at Elena's shocked face
"I'm surprised you stuck around town long enough for happy hour." Damon says
"My sister seems to be missing. Need to sort that out."
"Cute blonde bombshell, psycho. Shouldn't be too hard to find."
"Truth is I've grown to rather like your little town. Think I might fancy a home here. Oh I imagine you're wondering how does this is affect you. The answer is: not in the slightest. Unless I get what I want and everyone behaves themselves you can go on living your little lives however you choose. You have my word."
"What more could you possibly want?" Elena asks
"Well for starters, you can tell me where I might find Stefan."
"Stefan skipped town the second he saved your ass." Damon informs
"Well you see that is a shame. Your brother stole from me. I need him found so I can take back what's mine."
"That sounds like a Klaus and Stefan problem." Elena replies. Klaus makes a move toward Elena but Damon stands in front of her, protecting her
"Ha. Well this is me broadening the scope, sweetheart. " Klaus smirks before something behind them peaks his interest.
"Ah and there's the second thing I want" Klaus smirks looking in the direction of the door to the Grill. Damon and Elena look there and see Aalleeyah walk in. Damon barely holds back a growl as Klaus eyes her up and down like she's a piece of meat
"Hello Aalleeyah darling" Klaus greets but knows Aalleeyah can hear him. She looks up from her phone and looks at the group of three. She rolls her eyes before heading over there.
"Hey love, great job last night" Klaus winks, cockily when she reaches them. Aalleeyah looks ready to punch him in the face before opening her mouth
"Listen here you waste of life. The only reason I helped you last night was because your psycho father threatened to kill me. You used that against me. So don't think for one fucking moment that this makes me hate you any less then I already did. I'm not your friend. Im not on your team. I stick with my family and if you don't walk away right now from them, I will kill you right here in this restaurant and you know I will." She growls. Klaus makes a face, as if he is thinking it over, before smirking and walking off to the bar where Tony is.
"You know I can handle myself" Elena hisses and Aalleeyah faces her.
"Who said I was doing it for you? I just wanted a reason to smash him into one of these disgusting booths." Aalleeyah answers
"Sure you did." Elena rolls her eyes, "Look just because you stood up to him doesn't mean I forgive you"
"You think I want you're forgiveness? I don't give a shit what you think Elena. I mean, honestly, you're so defenceless that you barely even classify as a person. I think of you more as a cute little bunny rabbit" Aalleeyah smiles evilly.
"You are such a bitch" Elena glares at her before storming out of the Grill
"Love you too little sis" Aalleeyah calls out after her
"You really know how to scare people off don't you?" Damon questions.
"What? So you're talking to me now?" Aalleeyah retaliates.
"I never said I wasn't"
"Really? Well maybe I just assumed considering you screamed at me before running off" She scoffs
"Sorry" He shrugs, unapologetically
"No you're not" She turns around ready to walk off before turning back to him
"You know what? Don't pretend like you wouldn't have done the same thing. You and me, we're both as selfish as each other." She tells him before, she too, walks out of the Grill.
