Kol's PoV

I paced through the living room of my house suddenly feeling nervous that my plan wasn't going to work. I was scared about proposing to Elena in front of everyone but I knew that I wanted to marry her again.

"You should stop pacing before you were a hole in the floor" I heard Elijah said.

"Well I have a lot on my mind" I said.

"What is it, you can always talk to me brother" Elijah said.

"I want to propose to Elena at dinner next week" I said and within seconds my little sister came running into the room.

"What is this I hear about wanting to propose to Elena?" Rebekah asked.

"It seems our dear brother wants to marry Elena again" Elijah said.

"Well it has been nearly 1,017 years since we got married and I thought it would be a nice anniversary gift" I said.

"Well then what is the problem?" Rebekah asked.

"I don't exactly know how too, would proposing during dinner be too much?" I asked.

"I think it would be beautiful and romantic" Rebekah said.

Elena's PoV

I meet with my friends after school at the Salvatore Boarding House. I was really happy they accepted me for who I was, but I was scared that it wouldn't last for long. I walked through the front door as soon as I arrived at the house and saw everyone sitting in the living rom waiting on me.

"What is this, an intervention or something?" I asked jokingly.

"Something along those lines" Damon said.

"Why, it's not like I have a problem or anything" I said.

"Well you did let an original compel you into believing their lies" Damon said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked hoping that this was not what I was thinking.

"Do you honestly think that you were born in the year 980 A.D.?" Damon asked.

"Yes I do, because I speak the truth" I said.

"Then how were you born in 1992?" Damon asked.

"Magic is a tricky thing, mess with it and there are always consequences" I said.

"That still doesn't explain anything" Damon said.

"Bonnie do you know how to summon a spirit?" I asked looking directly at her.

"I've never tried, but I have read about how to" Bonnie said.

"Try to contact you ancestor Ayanna she can help clear this mess" I said. It took about five minutes for the group to arrange themselves and for Bonnie to gather and set up candles.

"Alright let's get started" Bonnie said as she magically lit all the candles.

"Hello" A voice said from Bonnie's body.

"Hello Ayanna" I said.

"Elena dear it's been a while" Ayanna said.

"I have to thank you for getting the spirits to allow me to live again" I said.

"You shouldn't have been punished for something you never did" Ayanna said.

"I never understood why I was punished in the first place" I said.

"We can talk about that later dear, I believe I was called upon for another reason" Ayanna said.

"Right my friends here need some clarification on my history" I said.

"Alright then Mr. Salvatore I see that you don't believe miss Elena here" Ayanna said.

"How could she be an Original when I met Miranda when Elena was two" Damon said.

"I believe Elena has told the story already" Ayanna said.

"Yes but I still think it was a compulsion cover up" Damon said.

"I can assure you it is not, I remember when Elena was born seeing as I was there" Ayanna said.

"So it is all true then" Damon asked.

"As disappointed as you may be, yes it's all true" Ayanna said.

"Thank you for clearing it up" Damon said.

"Not a problem, just remember what Rebekah said was also true" Ayanna said.

"What do you mean?" Damon asked.

"Mess it up and you don't get a second chance" Ayanna said and disappeared.

"Did you get the answers you wanted?" I asked.

"Yes I just don't know what to believe anymore" Damon said.

"If you need more time that is alright, but you need to have a final decision by dinner" I said.

"I think I need space for a day or two" Damon said.

"Just a warning, if you don't show up for dinner the decision will be made for you and the outcome is unchangeable" I said and walked out of the house. I couldn't believe that Damon could be so selfish. I had honestly thought that after everything he could have changed. I needed to mess with his head so I called an old friend.

"Kathrine are you up for messing with a Salvatore?" I asked

"Depends what do you have in mind?" Katherine asked.

"Whatever you want within reason" I said.

"Lead him on and then crush his hopes?" Katherine asked.

"Go right ahead, it should be fun" I said.

"Alright see you tomorrow" Katherine said and hung up. I looked up and realized that I had arrived back at home. It was weird looking at the Gilbert house seeing as I haven't been here since before I died. I walked up the walk to the front door and knocked hoping the Jeremy would be home. A minute later the door opened to reveal my little brother.

"Elena what are you doing here?" Jeremy asked.

"I wanted to come home if that's okay with you" I said.

"Sure come on in" Jeremy said and moved aside so I could enter the house. I walked in and headed for the kitchen in the pursuit of food. A few minutes later I had set out enough food to feed a small army.

"What happened?" Jeremy asked walking into the kitchen noticing all the food.

"What do you mean?" I asked whole grabbing a plate and silver wear.

"You never eat this much, unless something went horribly wrong" Jeremy said.

"Just Damon and his antics" I said.

"This can't be good, Damon has never lead you to eat like this before" Jeremy said as I finished making a salad.

"I really want everything to go back to as close as the way it was before this" I said honestly.

"I can understand that you do, but if Damon doesn't want to accept you for who you are then is he even worth calling your friend?" Jeremy said making himself a sandwich.

"Maybe not but I don't know if I can still be friends with Stefan if I lose Damon" I said.

"Of course you can, if Damon loses you he would be the only one to blame" Jeremy said.

"Thanks Jer, that really helped" I said smiling.

"No problem 'Lena, why don't you tell my about your life a thousand years ago" Jeremy said. I told Jeremy about Tatia both when she was the sweetest person ever and then after her daughter was born and how she toyed with Niklaus and Elijah after we moved to Mystic falls, about meeting the Mikaelson family and how I was instantly drawn to Kol, about our wedding and about my three lovely daughters.

"Wow it sounds nothing like what were taught in school." Jeremy said.

"Well its one thing to live through it and another to teach watered down stories passed down through the years" I said.

"I see that" Jeremy said.

"Next question are the other Originals as bad as we've been lead to believe?" Jeremy asked.

"It depends, they can be the nicest people on the planet or they can seem like the Klaus you know seem mild" I said. We talked for about another hour before I decided it was time to head back to the manor.

"Thanks for this Jer, but I should get home" I said.

"Elena this is your home, you are more than welcome to stay" Jeremy said.

"I don't want to intrude" I said.

"Elena you have lived here for eighteen years, you could never intrude" Jeremy said.

"Alright I am gonna head up to my room" I said as I walked up stairs.

"Goodnight Elena" Jeremy said

"Night Jer" I said before I shut my door, just then my phone rang.

"What is it Kol?" I asked my husband as I answered the phone.

"Where are you, I'm worried" Kol said.

"I decided to stay home tonight" I said.

"A phone call would have been nice" Kol said.

"I just decided this, I was getting ready to call when you beat me to it" I said.

"Alright I'll talk to you tomorrow. Nik wants us all home to discuss dinner" Kol said.

"Ok be there after school" I said.

"Love you darling" Kol said.

"Love you too" I said and hung up the phone.
