A/N: Disclaimer: I do not in any way or form own The Vampire Diaries, I just like to play in their sandbox every now and then.
JulietteHeart: I love reading your messages, they make me smile. I love Lexi too! But how would I bring her back? On that point, have you seen the tv series Midnight Texas? In that show the actress who plays Lexi plays an assassin and is very badass.
Tristana702: Caroline is going to be awesome as she is one of my favorite characters in the show and I think she deserves better than being used and thrown away by Elena as usual, so her with Kol could work really well.

"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.

Jeremy was pulled in to a hug by Kol as he heard the running footsteps coming closer. Him and Kol had a friendship based on pranking Kols family and murder. Then you might think 'But Jeremy hasn't killed anyone.' And you would be correct, Jeremy has never taken a human life (yet), but he has helped Kol pick his victims and come up with ideas of how to get the information he wanted.
Ever since Jeremy got adopted as a little brother by Damon, he had started to see the world differently. As long as the people he cared about where safe he didn't really care what happened to the rest. That might make some people class him as dark or evil but Jeremy really didn't care.
"Jeremy!" Jeremy was pulled from Kol, who shouted 'Hey!', and suddenly had a face full of blond hair.
"Rebekah!" Jeremy called back just as happily.
Rebekah then took Jeremys hand and led him into the house. "Do you want anything to eat or drink?"
"A glass of water would be nice but I can wait until dinner time for food." Jeremy smiled as he was pushed down on the couch in front of an open fireplace and Rebekah took the seat beside him while Kol went to get water.
"How long has it been for you this time?" Jeremy asked as Kol come in with a glass of water and
"Fifty-two years." Kol replied with a shrug. "That's tons better than two hundred years."
"For me it has only been a couple of hours." Jeremy smiled. "But I still missed all of you."
"We missed you to." Rebekah hugged him again. "Who else will talk boys with me?"
"From what I heard you are being courted by a warrior from out of town." Jeremy smirked at her. "That means you can't look at other boys anymore."
"Tell me about him?" Jeremy asked when Rebekah blushed and Kol faked gaged.
"His name is Alexander and he is the most handsome man I have ever meet." Rebekah gushed. "He is tall and strong and he has the most amazing eyes."
"He is also a vampire hunter." Kol remined Rebekah with a groan. "And when he finds out he's going to kill you or at least try!"
"That doesn't matter." Rebekah defended herself. "He loves me and I can teach him that not all vampires are as murderous and savage as you!"
"Both of you stop it!" Jeremy interrupted before they could start a screaming match. "Kol Rebekah obviously loves this man and is happy with him, try not to ruin it for her."
Rebekah smirked and stuck her tongue at Kol until Jeremy turned to her. "And Rebekah, Kol is your older brother, he is trying look out for you as best he can and if what Kol says is true and Alexander is a vampire hunter he has the right idea to be cautious."
Neither Rebekah or Kol said anything but they looked apologetically at each other.
"Where is Elijah and Niklaus? Have you two run away from home in a fit of teenage rebellion?" Jeremy teased but his insides where knotting themselves together in worry that he wouldn't get to see them, completely forgetting that the spell bound him to Niklaus.
"They are looking into ways of breaking the curse placed on Nik without the use of a doppelgänger." Kol told him with a small smile.
"Anyway, enough about us, I want to know about you." Rebekah sat up straighter and looked at Jeremy.
"What do you want to know?" Jeremy asked, getting comfortable on the couch.
"Do you have a lover in the future?"
"If not, are you at least attracted to someone?"
"What do you do for fun?"
"What is your favorite memory?"
"Who's your favorite person in the future?"
"Where were you born?"
"Are you a virgin?"
Rebekah and Kol quickly fired of questions at him until Kol asked the last one and Rebekah got red in the face and called out "Kol!"
"If you want me to answer that you should probably stop firing questions at me." Jeremy laughed at them.
"Sorry." The siblings chorused.
"To answer your questions: No, I do not have a lover in the future. And I might be attracted to someone." Here Jeremy almost said someons but managed to stop himself and he smiled bashfully and blushed trying not to think about Elijahs eyes or Niklaus dimples. "For fun I like to draw and paint when I have the time. My favorite memory is when my godsister and I made a birthday cake for my mother. Favorite person in the future is a tie between my godsister and Damon. I was born in Mystic Falls. And I am a virgin when it comes to men but not women."
"What is a 'godsister'?" Rebekah asked slowly.
"It starts with having a godfather or godmother, what that means is that if my parents would die my godparent would gain custody of me until I become eighteen. Reyas, my godsister, father was my godfather and my father was her godfather so Reya decided that it made me her godbrother." Jeremy tried to explain as best as he could.
"I think I understand what you mean." Kol murmured as Rebekah nodded.
What the three teenagers in the living room didn't know was that both Elijah and Niklaus had returned at the end of Jeremys speech. The both of them shared a look when they heard that Jeremy was untouched by men. They communicated silently with their eyes agreeing that they needed to talk to Jeremy about being theirs and soon.
XOXOXOX
Damon slowly untangled himself from Reya and Stefan and got out of bed. As he looked back, he couldn't help but smile, Reya had wrapped herself protectively around Stefan as if she was protecting him from anything and everything. He felt his chest fill with warmth and his heart beat a little bit faster.
He made his way to the shower, turn the heat of the water up and stepped in. He absolutely loved showering in hot almost scalding water. After a while of just enjoying the heat he took his shower gel, put in on a sponge and started to scrub his well-defined body. As Damon dragged the sponge over his right hipbone, he felt a weird tingle rase up his body. When he did it again and felt the same thing, he looked down.
"What the fuck?" Damon hissed quietly at the sight of the tattoo like mark he had there.
The symbol was around five centimeters in diameter. It looked almost like a triskelion but with a slight difference, while it was black in the middle the three points were different colors. One was green, almost the exact shade of Stefans eyes, the other was a piercing blue, matching his own eyes and the last point was a mix between blue and purple that looked like Reyas eyes.
Damon quickly finished his shower and got out to get dressed. He put on a pair of black boxers and a dark blue button up silk shirt, but decided to wait to put on pants so he could talk to Stefan and Reya about the mark. When he got back to his room both of them were still asleep on his bed.
"Rise and shine, we have things to talk about!" Damon said loudly and threw a pillow at them.
"To early." Reya groaned and buried her face in Stefans back.
"Your hair is tickling my neck." Stefan giggled and squirmed away from her.
As Reya sat up and rubbed her eyes, Damon and Stefan started to laugh. "What?"
"You have the most epic bed head." Stefan laughed.
She just stuck her tongue out at him, then she froze looking puzzled. "Since when do you have a chest tattoo?"
"I don't." Stefan uttered slowly.
"I think it has something to do with the bond." Damon ventured as he made his way closer to them. Then he pulled down the waist of his boxer enough to show off the mark. "I have one too."
Stefan went over to the mirror and studied his mark then he turned and studied Damons. "They are identical!"
"Does that mean I have one too?" Reya hesitantly asked.
"I think so." Stefan hummed. "Can you see it?"
"I don't see anything that wasn't there before." Reya looked at her body. "Can you see it on my back?"
Stefan and Damon both started at her back as she turned around, they could make out the scars, sort of, but no new marks.
"You don't have it on your back." Damon admitted after they had looked closely.
"I have an idea, wait here." Reya walked into the bathroom and closed the door. She came out ten minutes later in only her shirt and panties, having left Jeremys shorts on the counter.
"Here it is." Reya put her right foot on the bed and indicated towards her inner thigh.
Damon swallowed the lump that formed in his throat and had to stop himself from walking over to her and falling to his knees to worship at her feet. His mouth watered just thinking about it. He quickly shook his head and tuned back into the conversation.
"Is it weird that I'm not really bothered about any of this happening to us?" Stefan asked as he sat down on the bed again.
"I feel the same actually." Reya agreed. "It feels right, somehow."
"How about we just keep living our life as we have been and if we notice something about the bond, we talk about it then." Damon offered with a shrug.
"Sounds good to me." Stefan concurred and Reya nodded.
"How about we all take something quick to eat and then we take a road trip to Georgia to spend the weekend just relaxing and doing some shopping?" Reya asked, feeling like she needed to get out of town for a little while, not knowing that the feeling actually originated from Stefan.
"I'll drive." Damon declared and put on his pants.
Around thirty minutes later Damon was leaning against his car waiting for Stefan and Reya. Stefan arrived first caring a snack bag and a thermos. He hesitantly held out the thermos towards Damon with an embarrassed look.
Damon smiled softly and bit into his wrist, then letting his blood drop into the thermos. Stefan smiled back and screwed on the cork when Damon was done and slowly started to turn the thermos upside down to mix Damons blood with the animal blood.
"Thank you." Stefan breathed out and leaned against him.
"No problem, little brother." Damon leaned back into Stefan.
"Sorry for the delay." Reya cam walking out of the house in a tight pair of soft black pants and dark green top while pulling on a hoddie that was two times too big for her.
"I've got to ask, what's with the too big shirts and hoddies?" Damon asked slowly. "Yesterday you wore a t-shirt that was way too big for you and now the hoddie."
"Oh, well the shirt from yesterday used to belong to my dad, they are my comfort shirts." Reya admitted with an awkward smile. "And the hoddie is technically Jeremys but he hasn't asked for it back and I tend to 'forget' to ask if he wants it back." Then she shrugged. "I just really like shirts that are too big for me, they make me feel safe for some reason."
"Well, my closet is open for you if you want." Damon smiled and quickly pushed away the possessive feeling he got at the thought of Reya in his shirts.
"Mine to." Stefan offered as he slowly sipped from his thermos.
"Thank you." Reya beamed and hugged them. "Now, let's go. I call shotgun!"
Reya rushed over and jumped in the car with a laugh. Stefan chuckled and got in the back seat while Damon smiled fondly and got in the driver side.
"What are you doing?" Damon asked Reya as he started the car.
"I'm installing an AUX." Reya replied and put a small black device in the lighter socket.
"And why are you doing that?" Damon questioned slowly.
"So I can connect my phone to the car so we can listen to Spotify." Reya fiddled with her phone. "We need some road trip music."
At the last word Livin' On A Prayer by Bon Jovi started to play from the speakers. By the time they pulled out on the road all three of them were singing along to the music happily.
A/N: The End, well at least of the chapter :D
I know that Spotify and aux might not have existed back when season two of The Vampire Diaries aired but just go with it, okay?
It is now decided that Damon and Reya are going to be together, yay :)
Tristana702 came up with a great idea for a paring for Kol. What do you guys think of Kol/Caroline?
And I know I've asked before but how do you all want me to handle Finn?
Until Next Time
XOXO
