She's caught her diary up as the doorbell rings. She hides her diary again, and Jeremy answers the door before she can reach it. She gives him a thankful look, and she realizes none of them have really talked with Alaric since before Klaus took over his body. He's carrying two plastic bags and Jenna is carrying another, right behind him.
"We come baring dinner. Chinese food." Jenna declares and Elena can't help but smile. It's so normal, it's what she wants out of tonight. It's like Family Night. She knows she doesn't have a normal life and two other people have shared her face, but she doesn't want drama. She wants family. As she helps Jenna figure out what belongs to who, she feels a rush of affection for her family, including Alaric. He and Jenna aren't married, but since they're soulmates, they might as well be.
They watch a movie after dinner, and Alaric leaves after that. He makes Jenna happy, Elena and Jeremy have noticed. They want her to be happy, and if Alaric makes her happy, they support them wholeheartedly. Jenna deserves that happiness.
She sits next to them on the couch and asks if they're okay with her relationship with Alaric, he is their history teacher. Could get weird.
She's giving them an out, and Jeremy speaks before Elena does.
"He makes you happy, Aunt Jenna. That's all we want." It's not as eloquent as Elena was planning for her explanation to be, but Jeremy's works just as well. Jenna beams and crushes them both in a hug.
