I almost forgot Rebekah was standing there. She was standing there looking at her fingernails waiting. She finally looked from them to me. She then said,
"Klaus wants me to keep an eye on you. He doesn't trust the Salvatore brothers. So, here I am. You better get used to my lovely face."
"Okay. Here is the thing you and your brothers are going to need to know. I trust Stefan and Damon with my life. We might not agree on everything but there is one thing we do agree on. Our friends, family, and this town means everything we will keep it save." I told her.
I could see Stefan grinning in agreement. I then closed my locker. I headed to my class. Stefan followed me. The day have been going by fast. It was lunch time. I went outside to eat today. I found everyone at our usual table.
"So, what is this deal of this trip?" Bonnie asked.
"Bonnie come on don't question it. It's a free trip. Let's just enjoy it." Caroline said to her.
"I am just saying. I don't get it. There has to be a reason." Bonnie said.
"There is. Elijah thinks I need to get away. He knows the only that is going to happen if you guys join me." I told her truthfully.
"But why does he think you need to get away?" Matt asked.
"I have no idea." I answered him.
I still want to know why Elijah thinks that I should get away for a bit. That is very weird. Is there something we don't know about and he does? I understand why Klaus wants Rebekah to keep an eye on me. He wants to make sure I keep up on my half of the deal.
The end of the day has finally come. I went out to see if Damon was here to pick Jeremy and I up. Caroline came over to me. I was waiting for Jeremy. He hasn't come out yet. Damon isn't here yet.
"Waiting for your brother?" Caroline asked me.
"Yeah. Also, waiting for Damon to come get us." I told her.
I know she is trying to work on this friendship again. But I will not trust her with everything. There is a few things I feel like I can't trust her that much right now.
"That's nice of him." She said.
"You ready?" I heard Damon say coming behind me. He put his arm around my shoulder. I looked over to him. Are you kidding me?
"Just waiting for Jeremy. He should be out soon." I told him.
We just stood there for a bit. Without saying anything. Then Jeremy came over with Matt. Right behind them was Rebekah. They came over to us. Jeremy wasn't fazed by Damon. Matt and Rebekah were looking at us weird.
"You ready to go Jeremy?" I asked him.
"Going to hang out with Matt." He told me.
"Okay. Just let me know if you are not coming home." I told him.
"Okay. See you later." Jeremy told me.
"Can we go now?" Damon asked me.
"Sure." I told him.
I said good bye to everyone. I then headed to his car. Damon still has his arm around my shoulder. I could just tell what my friends are thinking. But I know they should know better.
Damon took me right home. I really didn't have another plan. So, I was just going to work on some homework and a favorite hobby of mine. When we got to my place he turned the car off.
"I don't remember inviting you to join." I told him.
"You have with your eyes. But always you promised me that I get to see your talent." Damon told me.
"I told you maybe someday. I have a lot of homework to work on." I told him.
"Oh, come on Elena. Please." He said pleading with me.
He was trying to give me a winning smile. I then headed towards the house. He followed me. I didn't agree to show him my photography, but I didn't deny him either. It is just nice to have him around.
