As Stefan opened the door to Damons bedroom he saw that Damon and Reya had taken up the same position on the left side of the bed that they had been in before Elijah and Klaus had come knocking on their door. He smiled climbed in on Damons right side and retook his own position form earlier.

Both Elijah and Klaus hesitated in the door for a few seconds until Damon indicated that they should join them on the bed. Elijah took the same position as Damon beside Stefan and pulled Klaus into a similar position that Reya was in, making Stefan feel protected in the middle of the cuddle pile.

"So, what are we watching?" Klaus asked as he stole a handful of popcorn from the bowl that had been placed in Stefans lap.

"Blade Trinity." Reya beamed at him. "Every seen it?"

"Not that I can remember. What is it about?" Klaus wondered while he accepted the mug of blood Damon held out to him.

"Vampires." Reya informed him with a devious smirk and started the movie.

When Jeremy laded in the new time, he stumbled but didn't fall, seemed like the more he time jumped the easier it would become. He looked around trying to find some way to tell where or when he was. Not finding anything of significance that could help him he decided to start walking towards sunset, leaving the sun at his back.

He had asked Niklaus to teach him how to navigate with help of the sun when they had been riding from the town. Now, if Jeremy remembered correctly, sunrise was to the east so at the moment he was walking west.

Jeremy had been walking for around an hour when he spotted a lake to his left and decided to take a bath. If his human, not so sensitive nose, could pick up how bad he smelled then the original vampires definitely could and he didn't want to make them sick. Could vampires even get sick?

As he got down to the water's edge, he stopped and took a deep breath. The best thing about being in the past, not counting the Mikaelson siblings, was the clean air.

Jeremy pulled out a pair of tight pair of cargo pants and a dark grey t-shirt, after which he found his towel and soap in the bottom of the bag which is just typical. Then he stripped out of his dirty and smelly clothes and jumped into the lake.

The water was nice and cool without being cold and Jeremy spent some time just swimming and enjoying the warm day. He slowly made his way to the shore and picked up the soap he had brought with him from the future. It was his favorite even though some might claim it smelled really girly, i.e. Tyler Lockwood. It smelled of lemongrass and verbena which reminded him of his mother.

When he had finished washing and taken another calming swim he got out and dried himself slowly, almost letting the warmth from the sun do most of the job. When he had pulled on his pants and bent down to grab his shirt, he heard giggles coming from behind him. He quickly turned around and saw two young woman around his age stand there blushing and giggling as they looked at him.

"Can I help you ladies?" Jeremy asked as he pulled on his shirt, not knowing that it made his muscles dance enticingly.

"Sorry sir we didn't mean to spy on you as you bathed." One of the women, the brunet, giggled.

"Never seen a shirtless man before?" Jeremy smiled kindly at them while packing his bag.

"Yes, we have but none that looked like you." The other one, who was almost strawberry blond, said than started to blush and hide her face at what she had blurted out.

Jeremy shouldered his bag and rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment. "That's very kind of you to say, but I need to be of."

"Oh, sorry we didn't mean to keep you." The brunet gushed.

"That's okay I'm just on my way to see some friends." Jeremy smiled and frowned. "You two wouldn't happen to know where I can find Elijah or Niklaus Mikaelson?"

"You know the Mikaelsons?" The strawberry blond gasped.

"He obviously does other vice he wouldn't ask for them by name." The brunet hissed at her friend, then she turned to Jeremy. "They live in the middle of our town; we can show you the way if you want?"

"That would be appreciated." Jeremy sighed in relief; he would soon see his friends again. He felt a little flutter in his stomach at the thought of seeing Elijah and Niklaus even if he had seen them a few hours ago. "I'm Jeremy by the way."

"My name is Rosalie and this is my sister Belladonna." The brunet, Rosalie, introduced herself and her sister.

"It's a pleasure to meet you both." Jeremy gave them a half bow.

"And you as well." They gave a curtesy back.

"So how do you know the Mikaelsons?" Belladonna asked as they made their way back to town.

"Well I meet them a few years ago when their mother nursed me back to health after I had fallen pretty badly. Then Niklaus thought me how to hunt and Elijah how to skin and prepare an animal." Jeremy smiled as he remembered those times even though to him it had only been just shy of a month ago.

"Niklaus is so handsome." Rosalie sighed. "With his blond hair and blue eyes and his dimples."

"Sure, he's good looking but have you seen Elijah? Those intense brown eyes and the care he shows his younger siblings." Belladonna argued with a smile. "It just proves that he would make an amazing father."

Jeremy chuckled quietly but inside he felt a flare of jealousy but quickly pushed it down again.

"Oh, sorry you probably don't want to hear this about other men especially your friends." Rosalie giggled.

"Don't worry about it, I'm used to it." Jeremy laughed.

"Oh?" Belladonna had a curious smile on her face.

"First of from my sister and then of course Rebekah talks to me about boys because she could never talk about that with her brothers." Jeremy explained. He started to smile when he thought back to the first time Rebekah talked boys with him and he had agreed that the man she was looking at had a nice behind. The look of absolute shock on her face was a thing he wouldn't forget and then the delight that came after made his day.

"Rebekah? As in Rebekah Mikaelson?" Rosalie asked. "Talks boys with you?"

"Yes, she does." Jeremy smiled.

"She is considered one of the most beautiful women in town." Belladonna hummed with thinly vailed jealousy.

"Isn't she being courted by one of the warriors that showed us those demons?" Rosalie hinted slowly.

"Rosalie! Belladonna!" A man called out from the edge of town. "Where have you two been?"

"Father, we were just out picking flowers." Rosalie explained quickly with a few white lies. "We meet Jeremy on the road here and he asked for directions to town."

"You Jeremy?" The man asked Jeremy briskly.

"Yes, sir." Jeremy answered calmly.

"Where are you going, boy?" The man sneered with a glare.

"He knows the Mikaelsons, father." Rosalie told the man. "He wanted to know the way to get to their house."

"Follow this road and then take a left, it's the big house in the middle of town." The man directed him. "Now get out of here!"

"Thank you for your help ladies, sir." Jeremy bowed his head to them all the while thinking 'What a rude man.'

Jeremy slowly made his way through town, looking around at al the small shops and wondering what 'demons' Rosalie had talked about. As he turned left on the right street, he saw the house that the Mikaelsons were living in. With a smile he walked up to the door and knocked.

"Jeremy?!" Kol gasped as he opened the door.

XOXOXOX

It was almost midnight by the time Niklaus and Elijah started to leave. The movie day had been a success and they had all enjoyed just sitting around with friends, not having to worry about a knife in the back. Blood had been drunk, popcorn eaten and soda consumed.

Everyone had enjoyed Blade Trinity, even the vampires who had thrown popcorn at the screen when the movie version of their species had appeared. They had all been both fascinated and disgusted by the vampire pomeranian thing and agreed that the whole silver thing was ridiculous.

After Blade they had watched Resident Evil, Iron man and lastly Transformers. Both Stefan and Damon had fallen asleep and were now snuggling together as Reya silently lead Elijah and Niklaus to the door.

"Thank you for a very pleasant evening." Elijah smiled looking more relaxed than he had in years.

"You are very welcome." Reya beamed back, slightly hyper from all the soda she had consumed.

"Can I ask you a question?" Elijah asked kindly.

"You just did, dear brother." Niklaus smirked and dodged the hit aimed at his head from Elijah.

"Sure, ask away." Reya giggled.

"How do you know Jeremy?" Elijah had wanted to know since he had had lunch with Damon and Reya.

"He's my godbrother." Reya explained. "That makes him family."

"You don't consider the doppelgänger family?" Niklaus wanted to know.

"No, me and Elena have never gotten along even though I've tried to make friends with her." Reya shrugged like she didn't really care either way.

When they got to the front door Reya put on a pair of running shoes and pulled of her oversized t-shirt leaving her in yoga pants and a sports bra.

"Where are you going?" Niklaus blurted out when she followed them through the door and locked it behind her.

"I need to run of the energy from the soda other vice I won't be able to sleep." Reya smiled and took off towards the woods. As she was leaving, they could see what looked like scars on her back, they shimmered and then they were gone and if they hadn't been vampires, they wouldn't even had seen them at all.

She turned and waved at them. "Thanks for the movie day, I hope we can do something else together some other time." And then she was gone.

"I like her." Niklaus decided with a shrug as they made their way to Elijah's apartment.

"Yeah she seems like a kind but protective person." Elijah agreed, then he smiled. "Did you see the way Damon looked at her?"

"Yes, he is so on his way of falling in love with her and she is completely oblivious to it." Niklaus snickered.

They walked in silence for a while, neither of them feeling any stress or worry.

XOXOXOX

Reya jogged her way through the forest slowly, just basking in the tranquility and quiet. She had had really fun with the Salvatore and Mikaelson brothers and wondered if this was what is was like to have friends. Reya had never really had friends due to the fact that most people found her odd, weird or just insane.

She had always believed that the supernatural existed which made many laugh and scoff at her. Jeremy was one of the very few who hadn't made fun of her for her believes, he even helped her research into it, even if he wasn't old enough to actually understand any of it in the beginning. And while Reya was around six years older than Jeremy and she saw him as a little brother, he was still her best friend.

Reya was seventeen when she found out that she was right about the supernatural. She had been running through the wood in the middle of the night, running at night helped her sleep, but what she hadn't thought about as she went for her run was that it had been a full moon. During her run a werewolf had come out of nowhere and attacked her. She had been infinitely lucky that a coven of witches had been doing a spell close by and heard her scream.

Reya had woken up two days later in one of the witches' house, her back on fire while the witches did their best to heal her from the werewolf inflicted wounds. In the end they managed to heal her but she was stuck with the scars; the bite mark on her left hip and the claw marks that started at the top of her right shoulder and ended at her left hip, just a few centimeters over the bite mark.

She had never been ashamed of her scars, they showed that she survived, but it got annoying after a while when everybody asked about them so Reya had asked one of the witches for help in hiding them. Anya had created an armband in pure silver, to help bind the magic and make it more powerful, to work as a misdirection. A misdirection was a weaker, bastardized version of a glamor spell.

She shook herself out of her reminiscing and turned her way back towards the boarding house. When she got in, she took a quick shower and put on her pajamas, a pair of Jeremys athletic shorts and an old top. Reya made her way to Damons bedroom to sleep with Stefan and Damon but when she looked at them, they looked so peaceful and she didn't want to disturb them.

Reya turned to leave when she heard a quiet whisper of her name. Damon was looking at her with sleepy blue eyes and messy hair and warmth filled her chest for some reason. He indicated for her to come to bed and she slowly made her way over.

"Where were you?" Damon whispered as not to wake Stefan.

"I had to run off my sugar high." Reya had an embarrassed smile on her face.

As Reya carefully climbed into bed when Damon lifted the covers, she felt like a weight had lifted from her shoulders the moment she touched Damon and Stefan. Before she had time to contemplate that she was falling asleep, her face buried in Damons neck while most of her body was laying on Stefan.

While the three laid there sleeping in a cuddle pile they didn't notice the identical marks start to appear on their bodies in different places. Stefans appeared on the left side of his chest, right over his heart, Damons mark appeared on the right side of his lower stomach, in the V of his hipbone and lastly Reyas appeared quite high up on her inner right thigh.

A/N: Another chapter, yay!

It is now decided that Damon and Reya are going to be together, yay :)

And by the looks of it, Elijah and Niklaus is planning to share Jeremy as long as Jeremy is okay with that, but then comes the question who I should pair Kol and Rebekah with?

Until next time

XOXO
