'My beautiful thought process, the last few days were odd at best. Once She-Wolf, Peaches and Stripper came back there was hell to pay. She-Wolf look like if Stripper didn't leave, she would probably kill him. Peaches is mad at mom...but before I get into that here is a recap...

Java and Yours Truly found STBD in his car looking for his ring...! Oh! STBD means, Soon-to-be-Dad, BTW, continuing on... he found it, and we talk about homework, extra credit, like I need more. HA!

And Mystic Falls Civil War Era in the 1800s. Oh fun...

On my cameras I saw Newbie and Judgy talking about Peaches and She-Wolf but Judgy got scare about something and left. Someone found one of my many traps and got glitter all over them, guess who it was, Puppy! Everyone was laughing but he didn't take it well. Too Bad.

During lunch She-Wolf called me and get this! Newbie has a twin, this is going to be fun! But I lied to my mom and I think everything is ok. I think. Hopefully.

After school Java and Pretty Girl were hanging out in the library to work on their extra credit. But Yours Truly and mom went to Mama Odie's, we saw Judgy ran out to her car speeding away. Looks like she's taking She-Wolf's lessons to heart now. Anyways Mama Odie and mom were talking about something important and Newbie was looking for Judgy, Mama Odie set him straight. Hell yeah! No one orders Mama Odie around!

We didn't stayed for dinner but promise to be back another time. Peaches came back and she and mom got into a fight and Peaches asked if she was adopted...Which she is, I found out two years ago, like I did accidentally with She-Wolf. And that's my recap. Well time for the pizza, yay! Bye!'


Mia, Sin and Jeremy were downstairs while Elena and Stefan were upstairs. The doorbell rings and Jeremy gets up to answer it but Mia put down her book and beats Jeremy to answering it. Jeremy goes back to sketching at the dining room table. Sin giggles at his annoyed face. A pizza delivery guy waits on the front porch.

"Hey. It's gonna be $22." He pulls pizza out of the pizza bag.

Mia yelled up the stairs, "Peaches, we need the money! Pizza's here! Hi. Here I'll put it on the table." She grabbed the pizza and places the pizza on the nearby table while Elena comes down the stairs, retrieving the money from her wallet.

"Hi. Um, keep the change." Elena hands the money to the pizza man who takes it.

"Thanks. And you have yourself a good night."

Elena smiles and shuts the door. While telling Mia to put the pizza on the dining table.

"Sweet! Let's feast!"


The next day during school. The bell rings signaling the end of class. Students get up from their desks and start to leave the classroom. Jeremy and Anna are packing up their stuff, when a paper is thrown down onto Jeremy desk by Mr. Saltzman.

Jeremy looks down at the paper and picks it up. A giant red "A" is marked on the paper. Jeremy smiles, stunned by his grade. Anna hugs him from behind in good sport.

"Surprised? It's a good essay. Your thoughts are clear, and your argument is well laid out. It's just, uh, you don't actually think there are vampires in Mystic Falls." Mr. Saltzman commented and asked as sits down behind his desk.

"No. I mean, I think statistically there's been more animal attacks, mysterious deaths, uh, people gone missing, more than any other place in the whole commonwealth of Virginia." Jeremy stated and Anna just smile in victory which he caught and light punch her.

"It's conjecture, but creative, which is why you got the "A." I just wouldn't get too, uh, caught up in the whole conspiracy theory of it all." Mr. Saltzman said.

"Ah, I won't." Jeremy gathers up his stuff, gets up, and starts to exit the room with Anna.

"Oh, uh, Jeremy, the source that you cited for the 1860s info, uh, Johnathan Gilbert...?" Jeremy stops and looks back at Mr. Saltzman.

"Oh, my ancestor's journal?"

"I'd really like to see that sometime."

"Really?"

"A first-person account of the Civil War? That's like, uh, porn for a history teacher."

Jeremy retrieves the journal from his backpack. "You think my essay's creative, wait till you get a load of this thing." Jeremy tosses the journal onto Mr. Saltzman's desk.

Mr. Saltzman picks it up carefully. "Thank you."

Jeremy nods and exits the room. Where Anna is waiting for him, but Jeremy missed the worry look from Anna.


Out in the front courtyard, Elena, Sin and Caroline are walking across the lawn together.

Caroline is observing the silver heart shaped necklace around her neck, which Elena just gave her. "It's so pretty. Thank you. God, it'll go with, like, everything. What's the occasion?"

"No occasion. Just a little friend gift."

Elena, Sin and Caroline sit down at a table.

"Lesbian friend necklace? Cause we're freaky like that?" Caroline winks at Elena, sarcastically.

"Your friendship is important to me."

"Why are you being so mushy?" Sin asked while biting into her red juicy apple.

"Because Carolina been avoiding me, and I wanted you to know that whatever is going on with you and Matt, it's ok."

Caroline looked a little guilty but sad, "I was gonna talk to you about that. I was, but there's just not much to say. You know, we've hung out a couple times. That's it, but...I just feel like we've peeked as friends."

Elena nods.

Sin shrugs.

"But I know Matt met someone else, someone who doesn't even live in this town and she sounds wonderful. And this is weird. I shouldn't be talking to you about this. It's weird. It's weird, right?"

"Yes. Only because he's a brother to me. So please, spare me the details." Sin shivered in disgust, Caroline just laughed at her friend's dramatic moments.

"It's a little weird, but if it's what you and Matt want, then it's not about me." Elena said.

Sin raised an eyebrow said harshly, "But it's all about you. Matt might have a pen pal but he's not over you, and we all know it."

Caroline nodded in agreement.

"I'm with Stefan now. Matt understands that. He knows he has to move on." Elena unwraps her sandwich and Caroline looks at her, unconvinced.

Sin rolled her eyes and continued to eat her apple. But before she took another bite she had an idea.

"Hey, how would you guys feel about having your own pen pals?"

The girls gave Sin a confused look while Sin gave them a wolf like grin, teeth and all.


While everyone was worry about the dance, personal lives, and world domination. Mia just wanted a few laughs. Sin told Mia how Damon Salvatore's car ticked. So Mia somehow got her hands on hot pink and bright lime green paint, a small handmade bomb, a mini camera the size of a fly, and a remote. Mia still doesn't know what Damon did to Sin that made her very piss off. So in true Mia fashion and does one of her famous pranks on Damon's pride and joy he calls, a car.

Once Mia was done she took a picture and found a tree that was across the street it was hidden from street cameras but it had a perfect view of the car. As Mia was waiting, she didn't realize she had a witness.

"Come on, come on, get in, get in."

"Excuse me, Nipper." Mia look down and saw the handsomest man ever. "What would you mind telling me what your doing? Mumbling to yourself about... what I believe is a car."

Mia was slightly surprised but smile all the same, "I'm waiting for an egotistical, no good of a stripper and a creep to come out from that store and get in his car. And drive away."

"Yes but why?"

"What fun is that to spoil the surprise?" Mia saw Damon open his car door, "Speaking of which, just watch."

They both watch as Damon started his car and started driving once he got a good distances his car blue paint turn into a hot pink and bright lime green coat and so did the inside. But Damon hasn't noticed just yet.

"Did you...did you do that?!" The man try to hold in his laughed but failed.

Mia was laughing her head off and got louder once Damon started screaming and swearing about his car.

Mia nodded her head as best as she could. "Yes, yes I did."

"You have a talent. Nicely done."

"Why thank you!" Mia giggled but she didn't notice she was leaning forward and fell off the high tree branch. "Whoa!"

The man quickly caught her in his arms, "Whoa, easy there love, it's ok. I got you."

"Thank you." Mia smile and got a flashback the last time she fell from somewhere high off the ground, "My name's Mia, Mia Sommer."

The man smiled and it got bigger at the sound of the last name. "Well my dear Nipper," Mia laughed at the nickname, "My names Kol, Kol Smith."


Matt is sitting at the bar, filling out a job application. Sin walks over to him from the other side of the bar and places a tray of glasses down. Next to her helping is a cute young man who happens to know Matt.

"Matt Donovan. What do you know?"

"Ben McKittrick. What's up, man?

"Rough season, bud." Ben wiping down the glasses.

"Yeah. It's kind of hard to recover when you have to forfeit half your games.

"Join a different sport then." Sin said as she served another costumer.

Matt rolled his eyes but he has thought about joining either baseball or basketball.

"You gonna be workin' here?" Ben asked.

"Yep, followin' in your footsteps, minus the state championship." Nodded at the form.

"Well, we can't all be Football Gods."

"Oh get off your high horse." Sin scuffed and whips her hand towel at them.

Both football players ignore her.

"So what's the plan? Cook line?"

"Busboy. Since Sin here took waitress."

"No hate, Your Majesty or you'll find a surprised in your food."

Matt held his hands in surrender and they laughed.

Down in the restaurant, Elena and Bonnie are having dinner at a table.

"I can't believe you're adopted. I never saw that coming."

"And it gets weirder. I looked at my birth certificate. It lists Miranda and Grayson Gilbert as my birthparents. None of it makes any sense."

"Which is why you should ask Jenna." Elena groans. "First of all, the Elena I know would always want the real truth, good or bad."

"And second of all?"

"You just found out your boyfriend is a" she whispers, "vampire, so unless your birthparents are aliens..." Elena laughs. "How bad could it be?"

"Ah, ok, look, I have to go to the store. My outfit for the dance is severely lacking accessories." Elena gets up.

"Ok, I'll pay the bill. And ask Mia, you know she good at that sort of thing."

"Ok. Bye." Elena leaves.

Bonnie gets up to pay.

At another table Mia and her new friend Kol were watching them. Well Kol is more interested in the witch then the doppelganger.

"Ok who is that?"

Mia pops her head to the side and said, "That's Bonnie, she's a friend. You two would look cute together. Foxy and Judgy? I like it." Mia turns her head back and forth.

Kol laughed a little and saw someone who look like trouble, "Isn't that the bloke who owns the car you-?"

"Yep. And Judgy is going to need saving."

"May I?" He smirked

She smirked back, "Make it a good show."

"Always do Nip." Kol winks at her, got up and went to the table where the lovely witch is at.

Back to Bonnie and the annoying creepy vampire.

"Bye." Bonnie starts to walk away from the table when Damon approaches her.

She stops and looks at him. "What do you want from me?"

"I think we need a fresh start."

"You tried to kill me."

"But I didn't, and if I wanted to, I would have. Does that not count for anything?"

"You know, I can start fires with my mind. Fires kill vampires, right?" Damon looks slightly concerned. "Just stay the hell away from me."

Kol walks over to Bonnie and Damon. "Mate, the beautiful lady here said go away and get the hell away from her, so you best do. Are you ok?" Bonnie look at the gorgeous man with the amazing accent and smile.

"We're fine-" Damon try to say but Kol cut him off while looking at Bonnie.

"I wasn't talkin' to you. Good bye."

Damon, controlling his urge to kill the new guy, grimaces, and walks away.

Kol moves to stand in front of Bonnie.

"Thank you." Bonnie said breathlessly.

"Anytime, Darling." Kol started to walk away but...

"Wait. What's your name?"

Kol look into her eyes, her eyes were a rare but beautiful mix of emerald and forest green giving her the look of one with nature.

"Kol, Little Witch."

"Excuse me?"

"I apologize, your eyes, they are beautiful and I'm completely hypnotize by them." Kol said bashfully. "I'm sorry, that was sappy."

Bonnie smiles. "No, I like it. And it wasn't sappy... it was perfect. I'm Bonnie."

They both smile at one another.


Sin, Matt and Caroline are outside in the schoolyard the next day, painting a banner for the dance.

"I've never seen you such a mess."

Caroline scoffs, smiling up at Matt, "Don't talk smack." Both blondes smirk

Caroline swipes the paintbrush on Matt's arm, leaving a giant smear of paint on him. Sin swipes her's on his face.

"I mean," Matt threateningly holds his paintbrush out at Caroline, who backs away, smiling. "I just thought that you told everyone else what to do. And you," Sin smiles innocently, "your just troublemaker." Matt got Sin back on her right cheek, luckily missing her hair.

Sin, Matt and Caroline go back to painting the banner after a good laugh.

"Well, I do that, too, but if you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself. You know, I just like that we're hanging out. Who knew-you and me?" Sin gave a cough, "And Sin."

"Well, who knew you could be fun?"

They smile at each other and continue to paint.

"So what are you wearing to this dumb dance, anyway? Should we color-coordinate?"

"Uh, I'm not goin'."

"Why not?"

"We gotta work, bussin' tables at the Grill, Care."

"Since when are you a busboy?"

"It's a job. You know, some of us have to work, Caroline. With our mom in and out, things are tight, so..."

Caroline looks up at Matt, "Well, I didn't mean it like that. I just meant that I didn't know you had a job."

"Well, I do. I gotta go." Matt puts down the paintbrush and leaves.

Caroline watches him walk away with a sad face. "Why do I always ruin it?"

"Pen pal..."

"...Give me the number."

Sin smirks grabbed a pen and wrote the number on Caroline's forearm.


At the Grill, Mia spots Jeremy and Anna shooting pool and approaches them.

"Hey Java. Pretty Girl. How'd it go?"

"What?" Jeremy jumped when Mia popped out of nowhere.

"The paper." Mia giggled.

"Oh. I got an "A." Thanks for the articles. They really helped." He said to both girls.

"Its no problem. Well I'll see you guys at school bye."

"Later."

"Cool. So what'd he say about the vampires? Did he believe it?"

"I don't even know what believe in." Anna gave him a strange look. "Sorry. Anyways, I, uh-I gotta get goin'." Jeremy gets up and walks around the pool table. Anna follows him.

"Whoa, um...ok, we spent enough time together I know your little habits. What's really going on?"

"Uh, sorry." Anna just raised an eyebrow waiting. "Ok, I...Do you believe in vampires?"

"Yes, and I like being right. Come on Jeremy, tell me."

"If I tell you promise not to tell my sister?"

"I promise..."

Jeremy got close and whisper in her ear. Anna's eyes got a little wider.

"...I believe you."

Jeremy look so relieved that he told someone, "Well this is last minute and I'm stuck on punch duty at the school dance but would you like to go to the dance with me?"

Anna smiled, "I'm guessing your failing English too," Jeremy shrugged, "but yes I'll go to the dance with you."

"Great, dress 50s." Jeremy grabs his backpack and leaves.

Anna watches him go, looking pleased with herself.

"I will."


At Gilbert Residence, Mia is getting ready for the dance. She's wearing a beautiful light pink strapless dress with a see through, long sleeved, covered in leaves and flowers. Mia is standing in front of the mirror spinning around as the music played.

~I howled at the moon with friends

And then the sun came crashing in

Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh

But all the possibilities

No limits just epiphanies

Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh

I'm never gonna look back

Woah, never gonna give it up

No, just don't wake me now~

Mia dance around her room and got a text from her papa, telling her to have fun and he'll visit soon. Mia giggled and put the finally touches to her outfit.

Downstairs Jenna, dressed up in a cute '50s outfit, is cleaning up the living room. Elena walks in the room.

"I take it Mia's very happy."

"She and Sin, you should see Damon's car."

"I have. People are asking me if Mia did it, while she is the only one who could. There's no proof. Again. Oh and...I spoke to the insurance company. Car's totaled. You can keep using mine for now."

"So you're coming to the dance?"

Jenna smiling, "Alaric asked me to help chaperone." Jenna walks around the couch and leans against it. Elena, not looking at her, picks up an apple and is about to take a bite, but turns around and looks accusingly at Jenna.

"Why didn't you tell me, Jenna?"

Jenna looks slightly startled by this sudden change of topic. But sighed, "Your mom was gonna do it eventually. I never thought I'd have to."

"If my mom were here right now and I asked, she'd tell me the truth."

Jenna nodded and told her what she knew, "Your dad was about to leave the office one night when this girl showed up. She was sixteen, a runaway, and about to give birth. He delivered her baby, and he gave her a place to stay, but a few days later, she disappeared. And there you were. Your parents were trying so hard to have a baby. I-it just wasn't happening. All Miranda ever wanted was to be a mom."

"Well, why were my parents' names on the birth certificate?"

She shrugged "Your dad was a doctor, Elena. He took care of it. They didn't wanna lose you, so they kept it quiet, told as few people as possible, but if anyone ever wanted proof, they had documentation."

"What else do you know about her? The girl?"

"Just her name. Isobel."

After that uncomfortable conversation Jenna and Mia left to the dance. Elena told them Stefan was picking her up.

The '50s dance. The students of Mystic Falls are dressed in their best '50s getups and dancing to "This Magic Moment". Mia, Caroline and Bonnie are dancing together on the dance floor. Elena and Stefan, arms linked, walk into the dance, with Damon standing on the other side of Elena. They look around the dance floor for any sign of danger. Alaric spots Damon from the other side of the room and the smile falls from his face as he recognizes who Damon is. Suddenly, Jenna approaches Alaric.

"Alaric."

"Hey, look at you."

"I figured I'd stand out less if I dressed up."

"Heh heh. Liar."

"Ok, I'm a sucker for the decade dance. I went to school here, you know. They do the sixties and seventies, too, FYI." They laught, "But if you ask me they should the twenties, the girls are obsessed with the Jazz Era."

"Oh. Can't wait. Can I get you a drink? I hear the punch is real boss." Alaric smiles and the two of them share a laugh. Alaric and Jenna walk off together.

Elena is standing by the punch bowl, nervously fidgeting with her earring. Mia, Caroline and Bonnie approach her.

"Having fun?"

"No, but this took about two hours, so I'm at least staying half of that." Caroline and Elena laugh.

Bonnie looks off into the distance. "What's Damon doing here?"

Elena and Caroline turn to look at Damon, who is standing with Stefan.

Elena turns back around. "He wanted to come. I promise. He'll behave."

Mia raised an eyebrow and asked, "So what is this, like, a threesome now, you and the Salvatore brothers?"

"No, but if I'm gonna be with Stefan, then I have to learn to tolerate Damon. It's not like I can kill him."

Sin walks from behide Caroline and scares the girls but Mia who laughs, "Now that's a beautiful thought."

"Hey, I thought you had work."

"I do, but the manager there likes me so much he said we can stay for a dance or two."

"We, She-Wolf?"

"We."

"Matt..."

Sin was wearing a tight black and white off the shoulder top, and black skinny jeans and white heels. Matt was wearing a white long sleeve shirt, classy black slacks with suspenders and a cheesy fedora.

"I'm glad you came." Caroline said.

"Me too. You guys look beautiful."

The girls thanked him and Sin really wanted to hurt the dark hair Salvatore, "So the Creep, I was thinking knock him off, put him in a coffin and bury him alive."

"Mmm. I'll help."

Sin, Caroline and Bonnie clink their glasses together. Elena looks down, trying hard not to smile at her friends' comments. Matt and Mia left to dance a little before dragging the rest of the girls to join them.

Alaric and Jenna walk across the dancefloor, punch cups in hand.

"I'm really starting to see a change in Jeremy. Finally."

"Uh, losing someone you love so suddenly, the, uh-the trauma and the grief there are some of the tougher things he'll face in life."

They stop in front of the projection screen and face each other.

"From someone who knows. I know I already asked but you have no idea what happened?"

"That's the hard part, not knowing."

"Well I know we can talk about her and just celebrate her life and that death is her next adventure but also live your life to the fullest."

"You are amazing but I'd be lying to you if I told you it didn't keep me up at night. Wondering why, by who."

"Maybe one day."

"Hope so." Alaric looks off into the distance. "I hope so. But I guess dancing with you is a start."

Alaric is shown to be looking at Damon, who is standing across the room, his arms folded over his chest. Alaric looks away and pulls Jenna into a dance. They laughed and have fun.

Bonnie and Sin left the dance floor and mingled around the punch bowl. Damon approaches them. "Hi, Bonnie. Wanna dance?"

"I'm out of here."

Bonnie and Sin look at him with disgust. Bonnie starts to walk away but Damon blocks her with his body. "Please give me another chance."

Bonnie doesn't respond and moves around Damon, walking away from him.

Sin glares at Damon. "Not a chance, Creep." Sin follows Bonnie.

"Hey Bonnie, I have to get to work."

"I'll come with."

"Great let's go get Matt and Caroline. "

Damon watches them leave. Stefan and Elena approach Damon.

"Where did they go?"

"I don't know."

"What did you say to them?"

"I was perfectly polite. Elena...Would you like to dance?"

"I would love to." Elena looks up at Stefan. "May I have this dance?"

Stefan lends her his arm and she takes it. Elena looks up Damon with a devilish smile. Damon rolls his eyes. Elena and Stefan go onto the dance floor. Stefan twirls Elena around and pulls her into him. Elena wraps her arms around his neck, smiling brightly, as they sway to the music.

Caroline and Matt are still on the dancefloor. Caroline still has her arms wrapped around Matt's neck and Matt has his hands placed on her hips. Matt spins Caroline around and pulls her back in.

"So where did you learn to dance?"

"Don't tell anyone but Sin taught me how. "

"Really, I knew she's a great dancer but she doesn't like to teach. "

"Yeah, I know but we made a bet with Mia."

"Ah, now I get it."

After the dance Sin, Bonnie, Caroline and Matt left the dance and went to the Grill.

Across the room, Jeremy is manning the punch bowl. Anna comes out of nowhere and walks up to him.

"Alright you better not laught at this dress."

Jeremy looks up and sees Anna wearing a red polka dot halter pin up dress.

"Wow, you look amazing."

"Thanks not to shabby yourself. "

"Well, Mia did the hair and threw a leatherman jacket at me."

"I shall thank her when I see her."

"You see who?" Mia popped out next to Jeremy, scaring the cup out of his hand.

"Jeezs, your like a horror movie pop up." Jeremy and Anna try to get their hearts back to normal.

"Thank you, thank you I aim to please."

"What are you doing here?" Anna asked the younger girl.

"Well She-Wolf and Duke have to go to work, so Queenie and Judgy went with them. Peaches is dancing with Newbie and Stripper is standing around like a creep."

"Thank you for that lovely update." Jeremy smiles at Anna. Mia bow and left them to their work.


Once Matt and Sin got back. They changed and started working, Matt got busy busing tables at the Grill. Sin was getting orders and serving food to people.

He looks up as Caroline and Bonnie enter, still in their '50s garb. Bonnie looks earnestly up at the bar.

"Let's sit up there."

Caroline stops and crosses her arms, teasing Bonnie. "Be a little more obvious, Bonnie." Caroline thought Bonnie was talking about the bartender.

"Don't rain on my hot-guy parade."

Without them noticing, Matt has come up behind them, carrying dirty dishes in a bin.

"What? It's just a drizzle. Ben McKittrick? Really?"

"Ben McKittrick? He's hot but not the one I'm looking at."

Caroline raised an eyebrow look at the bar again not seeing the guy Bonnie was interested in. "Really, who? He must be very hot if your not interested in the washed-up jock."

"Shut up." Bonnie blushed a little.

Matt, having paused to hear the conversation, looks down and walks past Caroline, who finally notices him.

"Hey."

Matt without looking at her, tonelessly, "What's up?"

Caroline's smile falters at his lack of enthusiasm of seeing her.

Caroline and Bonnie are sitting at a table. Bonnie stares at Kol, who's sitting at the bar and Caroline sulks.

"Tonight was so much better on paper."

"Ah, you're just feeling sorry for yourself. Go and talk to him. Be bold and fearless." Bonnie said.

Sin walk by bring them French fries and some advice. "Yeah, this coming from the girl who's been eye stalking the hot guy."

"You're right."

Bonnie boldly gets up and walks over to the bar. Caroline and Sin watches her, looking impressed.

Bonnie stops in front of the bar and speaks to Kol. "Hi."

"Twice in one day Little Witch. Lucky me." He smirked.

"I'm proving something to my friend."

"Oh, yeah? What's that?"

"That you don't have to sit around and wait for a guy to come up to you." Bonnie takes a sit next to him.

"Does that mean that you're asking me out on a date?" Kol grinned.

"Does that mean you want me to?" She replied shyly.

"Well, what did you have in mind?"

Bonnie hesitates, "Do you like karaoke?"

"No." Bonnie looks hopeless. "But I would really like to go on a date with you."

Kol leans closer towards Bonnie and smiles. Bonnie smiles back, flirtatiously.

Back at their table, Caroline watches with disdain. Matt walks past her table, but completely ignores Caroline.

"Seriously?"

Matt stops and looks at her. "Is that for me?"

"Do you see anyone else in the vicinity?"

"Do you need something?"

"Are you mad at me or something?"

"No, Care. I'm not mad. I..."

"Well, then why are you being so weird?"

"I'm not. I'm working."

"You're avoiding."

"No. I have a table to clean. You know, that's the kind of thing that washed-up jocks do to make a living."

Matt walks away. Caroline, realizing that he heard what she said earlier, sighs.

Sin was helping another table as she saw the interaction. She sighed knowing there wasn't much she could do but be there for her friend.


Back at the dance, Anna carries three stacks of paper cups over to Jeremy who takes them from her.

"You know, you don't have to help. You can go dance with Mia."

"Oh, I don't mind. It's fun. Beside Mia left to go changed the music and put a few pranks around the gym."

"Of course she is."

"So... is this our..."

"Our... what?."

"...nothing. Never mind. It's dumb."

"Our first date? No. But maybe Friday, you, me, horror movies, and dinner at me place?"

"It's a date."

Jeremy leans across the table towards Anna. Suddenly, Anna's eyes begin to change.

Jeremey confused, "Your eye."

Anna blinks and turns around. "Um, there's something in it. Forget it. I...I gotta go." Anna leaves in a hurry and Jeremy watches her go.

Mia somehow got to the highest point in the gym, watching everyone who's down below. She saw Elena and Stefan are swaying on the dancefloor and talking. Elena suddenly pokes Stefan in the chest. Mia giggled and thought the music was too slow and so the music starts to pick up by Mia's hand. Stefan looks up at the speakers, realizing he will have to dance faster. Elena smiles broadly, grabs Stefan's hands and starts to twist her hips, but Stefan remains still. Stefan shakes his head. Elena nods persistently. Stefan shakes his head again. Elena groans and starts to walk off the dancefloor, but Stefan grabs her by the arm and twirls her back towards him. He picks Elena up and dips her on one side and then the other, holding her in the dip for a moment. Elena smiles up at him, surprised. Stefan straightens them back up and places Elena on the floor, grabs her face in his hands, and kisses her with intense passion.

Mia looks away from the couple after awhile some students started to leave and Mia got down from the ceiling and walk up the Elena and Stefan who were watching others dance.

Back out on the dancefloor, Damon has found a girl to dance with. He gropes her bottom and they glide across the dancefloor. Elena watches from the punch bowl with Stefan. She laughs and looks up at Stefan.

"Should I call security because I'm pretty sure that's illegal." Mia looks bored.

"You really can't take him anywhere, can you?" Elena giggled.

"Uh, no."

Elena looks across the floor and sees the man in his hoodie. She turns back to Stefan and Mia.

"Hey Mia, why don't you go find Jenna. I want to speak to Stefan in private."

Mia looks suspicious but shrugged and left. Elena and Stefen went vampire hunting so to speak. But they didn't realize that this was the moment when everything went down hill for a special girl.

Mia thought it was time to go home and told Jenna who agree. As they got home Mia left the adults to talk.

Alaric and Jenna walk up the stairs of the front porch and stop outside the front door. Jenna hands Alaric his letter men jacket which she had slung over her shoulder.

"Thank you. I needed that."

"Well, thank you for-for coming. I...I really appreciate it. You made the evening much more...Well, you made it, period."

"I'm glad I could help."

"And thank you for putting up with all that wife talk. I...I gotta stop doin' that. It doesn't bode well for dating."

"Is that what this was, a date?"

"No, definitely not a date."

"Oh."

"But Friday...You, me, and dinner and a movie, that could be a date. How about it?"

Jenna smiles, "Works for me." Alaric laughs in relief, "Uh, you can talk about your wife all you want. It's gonna take time to heal. We should just be ourselves."

"Still, I think I'll keep the Isobel talk to a minimum."

"Isobel?"

"Yeah. That was her name."

"Where was Isobel from?"

"Virginia. I mean, not too- -not too far from here, actually."

Jenna looks at Alaric as if something has clicked into place.

Upstairs Mia changed into pjs and started writing.

'Hello my lovely book that I write in... The dance was fun, music could have been better and so could have the company. After all Stripper made most of the girls leave, She-Wolf and Duke had work and who knows what's going on with Peaches and Newbie. I mean they're downstairs right now snug as a bug. Always Mr. S asked mom on a date which she said yes finally. She-Wolf just texted me saying she and Duke just got off work and heading home. Judgy and Joker are going on a date, Duke and Queenie decided to be friends cause it wouldn't work out plus they had fun just being friends for once. Java and Pretty Girl...don't know what's going on there but she'll tell me in the morning. Well I believe that is it. Oh Stripper, his car is a neon mess, his jacket was clean and now pink again. Oh that was fun. Well goodnight. And see ya next time.'

Mia smile and put away the book. She look at the photo nearby and with a click of a button she was asleep with soft piano music in the background.


Kol went back to the Grill after dropping Bonnie home. Across the street, someone watches him. Kol walks out and starts to walk down the street. Behind him, Rebekah stands at the corner, her eyes become red and veiny and she vamp speeds at him, opening her mouth to bite him. Kol quickly turns around and grabs Rebekah, pushing her against a wall. Kol is revealed to also be a vampire.

"Well, well, well look who we have here. Hello my twin sister."

Rebekah smiles and pushes Kol off and hugs him as they haven't seen one other for awhile.

"Kol... It's good to see you. What are you doing here? I thought you were in Greece or somewhere."

"I was, but a friend called and I couldn't resist."

They laugh and walk down the street together.

"Well let's give this town a Mikealsons welcome shall we."
