A/N: I got nothing to say so here we go.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Twilight or The Vampire Diaries each belong to their respective parties. I'm just playing with them.


Chapter 8

Bella pov:

Once Klaus left to go make his hybrids my group, consisting of Damon, Stefan, Elena, Rebekah, and I, made our way back to the boarding house. That's when Damon let me have it.

"Isabella Marie Swan what the hell were you thinking? Klaus? Really? Do you have a death wish? First you have me putting up with cold ones, now the Original hybrid! I'm supposed to help you get better! Not lead you to an early grave. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you made it to where everyone made it out alive, but you made a deal with the devil!" Everyone was just watching as the drama unfolded.

"I did what I felt was necessary, Damon. He was going to take Stefan's choices away and probably kidnap Elena. It's not like things ended badly. I have the protection of the Original family and all he wanted was someone to stay by him and learn about my past. I don't regret my actions and I'll accept what ever punishment you feel is needed." I explain calmly. I then smile and say, "If it makes you feel better, I slapped Stefan in the face."

"You're just trying to make me go easy on you." Damon says with a smirk.

I walk up to Damon and whisper in his ear low enough no one else could hear, "Now that he's back, I can play pranks on him."

"Girl after my own heart. You're not off the hook though, and since you're still on house duties for the cold ones, I'm going to have to get creative." He has a mischievous look in his eyes. "Rebekah, you like shopping?"

"Shopping Damon? That sounds like a reward to me." Elena says sarcastically.

My eyes widen in horror. "You can't be serious. Please anything, but that. I'll scrub this place with a toothbrush and detail all the cars! I'll wait on you hand and foot. Just please, no shopping!" I begged while getting on my knees in front of him.

"Does that look like a reward Elena?" Damon asks with a smirk. "Or I could give you your birthday present early?"

"You didn't." I growl out as Damon and I enter a stare down.

"This is quite funny to observe." Rebekah muses.

"Oh, I did." He says and speeds out of the room for a second and comes back with a set of car keys, dangling them in my face. "I even got it restored to perfection. It's in the garage and no you can't pay me back or pay for the insurance for the next six months."

"You got her a car? I still don't see the punishment." Elena states.

I just growl and make my way to the living room, sit on the couch, fold my arms defiantly across my chest, and remain silent.

"Poor baby. Next time think before you speak." Damon says following me and proceeded to make himself a glass of bourbon. "Stefan, this is my goddaughter Bella and she's going to live with us for a while."

"Hello Bella. It's a pleasure to meet you and thank you for what you did for Elena and I." Stefan tells me.

"I didn't do it for you, but your welcome."

"Let's wait for the Major to get here before I go into details about Bella's situation." Damon said, addressing the group. The next two hours was filled with easy conversation. Well mostly easy, Damon showed me my new car. A black '69 Chevy Impala just like 'Baby' from Supernatural, my favorite TV show. He even set the trunk up with the false bottom and filled it with weapons just like the show. I loved it, but I'm still mad he won't let me pay him back.

Eventually there was a quick knock on the door and Damon got up at vampire speed to answer. I heard his deep southern draw all the way from the living room and it sent a shot of pain through my heart. "Salvatore?"

I got up and tentatively made my way to the door. "Jasper?" I turn the corner and there he is. Jasper Whitlock wearing jeans and a simple t-shirt with brown cowboy boots. I just smile and launch myself at him giving him the biggest hug I can manage. "I missed you." I can't believe he's here.

Jasper hugs me back and says, "I missed you too, Bella." Damon then moves to take me from Jasper which caused him to growl out, "I won't hurt her. Let me hug my sister."

"Last time she was with you, you were a bit snappy so forgive me for wanting to protect my goddaughter." Damon tells him.

Jasper just sighs and I can feel his self-loathing he is projecting and moves to let me go. I just squeeze him tighter and say "Stop it, Jasper. It wasn't your fault and I never blamed you. It was a setup anyways. There was nothing you could have done." I send him the brotherly love and acceptance I feel towards him.

Jasper pulls back and looks at me incredulously, "I'm glad you feel that way Bella, but what do you mean it was a setup?"

"Alice knew I didn't want to have the party and she would have seen me getting that papercut when she decided to wrap my present." I explain.

"That stupid insufferable little pixie!" he growls out. I grab him by the hand and drag him to the living room where we all sit down. "Why is Klaus Mikaelson of all people calling me here to protect you Bella?"

I just look down at my feet and whisper, "Victoria."

"I knew it! I told them, but nobody listens to the empath! Golden boy said there was no indication of Victoria being James's mate and everyone believes him!" Jasper shouts.

"I already took care of the one with the dreads so it's just her. The problem is we don't know what she's planning." Damon informs him then turns to me as I yawn. "Bella why don't you go to bed. You do have school tomorrow."

I kind of fidget in my seat and look at Jasper, "Can you keep the nightmares away?"

"Sure Darlin'. I'm not going anywhere, and I'll be here if you need me." Jasper says sincerely.

After that I make my way to my room, do my nightly routine and drift off into a dreamless sleep.
