A/N; I honestly wasn't going to update this today, mainly because I wasn't sure if I liked this chapter or not and I swore to myself I wouldn't make a story/chapter that I myself wouldn't read. But I felt like it was decent enough to upload, lol. I have like two more chapter's saved that need to be edited and looked over so don't worry about the not updating for months thing. I'm slightly stuck but that's more to do with the fact that writing the episodes while including my own writing is really fucking hard. If anyone is confused about why I didn't write the whole script/episode it's because the chapters would end up being much too long and this is really just Nova's POV. Btw does anyone find it ironic that Vanessa Morgan, the one I picked to represent Nova is going to be playing a bisexual character in 'Riverdale' because I do.
I'll go over this again later.
Enjoy!

Caroline slams the fliers down for the comet down in front of the three girls. Nova had drawn the picture of the comet passing over the town square a couple days ago; then all the girls spent almost an hour using the local library's printer before they all gathered at the Grill.
Later they have to pass out the fliers.
She's never going to allow Caroline to talk her into helping with her pet projects ever again; just the thought of trying to say no to a determined Caroline makes her want to burst of laughing.
They split the fliers into four piles, checking them over to make sure they're printed correctly. "I saw Stefan last night." Elena starts talking about everything they talked about, from their favorite novels to the comet that's heading their way.
"Well, we were talking to Grams, and she basically said that the comet is a sign of impending doom, the last time it passed over Mystic Falls a lot of people died; so much blood and carnage, it created a bed of paranormal activity," Bonnie says, after Elena finishes talking, her green eyes are a silent storm; she obviously hasn't cooled down from the argument.
"Yeah, and then you poured Grams another shot and she told you guys about the aliens." Caroline snarked, her bitch mode is real today.
"Bitch," Nova says without any real heat.
"Slut," Caroline shot back without missing a beat, before turning back to the amused Elena, "So then what."
"So then nothing," Elena replied, taking a sip of her water.
"You and Stefan talked all night, there was no sloppy first kiss or touchy feely of any kind?" Caroline was in disbelief.
"Nope, we didn't go there," Elena says firmly, her cheeks slightly red.
"Not even a long lingering hug?" Nova asks, putting in her two cents.
Elena shakes her head, huffing in amusement. "Not even a handshake? I mean, Elena, we are your friends, ok, you are supposed to share the smut." Caroline says looking towards Nova who nods her head a silent 'yes', "What Care said, share the smut, we want the dirty details." Nova teases, obviously trying not to burst out laughing.
Elena rolled her eyes at her friends,"We just talked for hours."
"Okay, what is with the blockage?" Caroline questioned Elena, before continuing, "Just jump his bones already, ok, it's easy, boy likes girl, girl likes boy, sex!"
Nova makes 'bow chicka wow wow' noises, making Bonnie hit her arm, both of them grinning in amusement. "Profound, both of you." Elena replied sarcastically, before waiting a moment and getting up.
"Where are you going?" Bonnie questions, her eyes curious.
"Caroline's right, it is easy, if I sit here long enough, I'll end up talking myself out of it instead of doing what I started the day saying what I was going to do." Elena replied before walking away dramatically.
"Do you think she forgot Bonnie drove her?" Nova said after a beat of silence, before yelping as she's yanked out of her chair and along with the brunette who apparently came back.
"You're driving me," Elena declares more than asks as they walk towards her parked car.
"May I ask why?"
"You're a good buffer if things go wrong,"
"I'm being reduced to relationship buffer, I feel so special." Sarcasm is practically dripping from her tone as they get into her car.
"Just drive."
"Okay, Boss."
"Hey..you aren't like, jump his bones the moment the door is open?" She asks the other girl as she parked in the driveway, who rolled her eyes before getting out of the vehicle. "I was being serious, as attractive as you both are, I don't want to watch you two going at it!" Nova shouts while rushing to get out the car and towards Elena, who still won't answer her very valid question.
Elena rung the doorbell but after a long moment of waiting, she pushed the unlocked door open, walking in hesitantly, Nova right behind her.
"Breaking and Entering, this is new, for you I mean," Nova remarks, looking around the entryway, Elena ignores her to call out slightly hesitantly, "Stefan... Stefan?"
They look around the boarding house in slight wonder, Elena's probably in awe because of the size and beauty of the home, but Nova is having a moment of déjà vu as she takes in the place that used to be on a television show.
She grew up in Mystic Falls, in this life, it was easier accepting where she was, what she is, and who she's friends with because this place had become her home and these people had become her family; it's still surreal, being here, especially with The Salvatore's coming to town.
A crow flies into the house, surprising her out of her thoughts.
The girl's move closer together sharing a slightly startled look.
They turn back; only to jump again as they see Damon Salvatore standing a little too close to the both of them, just staring at them. What is with these people and fucking staring, Nova thought.
"I...we're sorry for barging in, the door was open.." Elena trailed off when she turned to see the door firmly closed.
"Hey, aren't you that guy that eye fucked both me and Caroline last night?" Nova breaks to slightly awkward silence.
Elena looked between them, her eyes questioning.
Damon's who had been previously staring intensely at Elena looked towards Nova, he smirked charmingly. "I thought you looked familiar, do I get a name to go with the face?"
"Bennett. Nova Bennett." Nova answered, shifting beside Elena. Damon cocked his head as he digested the last name, his eyes lighting up with recognition.
"Nice to meet you, Nova," He said before looking back to Elena, "And you must be Elena, I'm Damon, Stefan's brother." Elena looks shocked at the revelation, while Nova kept her eyes on the vampire, she's not afraid of him, but she isn't stupid enough to let her guard down around him.
"He didn't tell me he had a brother."
"Technically he said, he had no sibling he talks to, it was very sly of him," Nova said purposely keeping herself relaxed. Elena shot her a 'not helping' look that she gets a lot; like once every hour a lot.
Damon smiled at both of them, it didn't really reach his eyes.
"Well, Stefan's not one to brag, please, come, I'm sure Stefan will be along any second." He responded leading them out of the entryway and into the living room with a light hand on both of their backs.
"Wow..this is your living room?" Elena looked around in amazement, Nova, however, was not interested in the living room, she yearned to go look in their library, later, she promised herself.
"Living room, parlor, Sotheby's auction, it's a little kitschy for my taste." He replied still staring it's a little creepy, maybe creepy isn't the word she's looking for; intense, that's a more fitting word.
"I see why my brother's so smitten, it's about time, for a while there I never thought he'd get over the last one, nearly destroyed him," Damon said to Elena; and Nova could practically taste the trouble he's trying to stir up.
Elena turned to the elder Salvatore tilting her head in question. "...The last one?"
"Yeah, Katherine, his girlfriend," He answered as though it was obvious, despite knowing she doesn't anything about Katherine.
"Oh, you two haven't had the awkward exes conversation yet." Damon his face said 'oh, my bad', but Nova knows he's enjoying stirring up the drama.
"Nope," Elena replied slightly awkwardly.
"Well, they've only known each other a few days, been together for less," Nova interrupted, making them turn to her, "I'm sure they'll get all that awkward stuff out of the way, now that you helped move it along." Nova grinned at Damon; okay, so it more like a baring of teeth than a grin, but whatever.
"True, very true, I'm happy to help," He replied with a smirk before turning towards Elena, "He probably didn't want to tell you because he didn't want you to think he was on the rebound, we all know how those relationships end."
"You say it like every relationship is doomed to end," Elena returned with a frown.
"I'm a fatalist," He responded, before cocking his head towards the door, "Hello, Stefan," Damon greeted his brother without turning, the girl's turn their heads towards where Stefan is standing, looking at Damon as though he was going to eat them.
Which was a very high possibility.
"Elena, Nova, I didn't know you two were coming over." Stefan doesn't take his eyes off his brother. Elena smiled slightly at Stefan moving closer to the younger Salvatore, as she replied, "I know, I should have called, I just…" She trailed off, looking at Nova for help.
"It was spur of the moment thing, we're sorry if we're bothering you." Nova finished for the other girl moving closer to Elena.
Damon waved them off, moving closer to them, it was a subtle threat that Stefan didn't miss if the glare that Stefan shot the raven haired vampire was anything to go by, "Oh, don't be silly, you're both welcome anytime." Damon said to the both of them before turning back to his brother, his eyes teasing. "Aren't they, Stefan?"
Damon continued not deterred when Stefan doesn't reply, "You know, I should break out the family photo albums or some home movies, but...I have to warn you, he wasn't always such a looker."
Nova tried not to giggle at that, she failed and turned it into an awkward cough when everyone- but Stefan, who's still glaring at Damon- stared at her.
"Thank you for stopping by, it was nice to see you both." Stefan practically kicks them out, Elena looked towards him, clearly taken back, but also ready to get the hell of dodge.
"Yeah, we should probably go, it was nice to meet you, Damon," Elena said, looking between the two brothers awkwardly. "It was nice to officially meet you, Damon, super awkward but nice," Nova added with a grin.
"Great meeting you both, really," Damon replied, ignoring Stefan's stare as he shook both of their hands with a small peck on the back of their hands. Such a gentlemen, Nova thought dryly while he shook her hand.
Nova and Elena walk towards the door, Stefan, however, is blocking the door, not breaking the glare he's sending his brother.
"Stefan?" Elena urges when he won't move. "We'd like to leave you two to finish your pissing match, the testosterone is slowly killing us," Nova said slowly to Stefan when he doesn't move, Elena shot her an exasperated look and she can practically feel the eldest Salvatore's amusement gaze.
She also doesn't care, because it made the brick wall named Stefan move.
The girls got the hell out of there and didn't speak until they got in the car. "What the hell was that?" Elena asked rhetorically.
Nova kept her eyes on the road, driving towards the Gilbert residence. "That was raging family issues, a mix of mommy issues, a whole lot of daddy issues and then the estranged brother issues, they both just look like they have a lot of issues," Nova replies truthfully to the perplexed Elena.
Elena shook her head with a frown,"Why didn't he tell me he had a brother?"
"Because you've only known him for two days, Lena," Nova replied, slightly exasperated. She get's people can fall in love in less time than that, but you can't expect a person to tell them their life story within a span of thirty-four hours. "People are like onions, you think that's the last layer but there's always another one."
"Onions really?" Elena huffed with a roll of her eyes, grinning slightly.
"Yup." Nova popped the 'p' with a wide grin.
"But you have to admit, he was hiding that he had a brother," Elena asked after a moment. Nova nods at that, humming, drumming her fingers on the wheel, "Yes, well, he probably didn't want you to meet the guy."
"It did look like that, didn't it? what do you think happened to make Stefan so..." Elena trailed off, struggling to find the words.
"Constipated?" Nova supplied helpfully, or at least she thought so, Elena's mild glare says that it was the opposite of helpful.
"Okay, how about tense?" Elena hummed in agreement. Nova shrugged, "Something obviously tore them apart, or maybe they never really got along, I don't know." Nova partially lied as Elena nodded in agreement.
After a moment of silence before her eyes curiously eyed her friend. "What?" Nova asked her eyes on the road, but she can see Elena looking at her from the of her eye.
"Eye-fucker?" Elena repeated in askance.
"Oh...that, well, the night Donovan got bitten, when Caroline, Bonnie and I went to get coffee, Care and I saw Damon there," Nova answered the question before parking on The Gilbert's street.
"And the eye-fucking part?" Elena questioned grinning slightly amused.
"Both Salvatore's are..intense, you have to admit that," Elena nodded in agreement, "He stared at us, and we stared back, therefore he eye-fucked us," Nova shrugged it off before continuing,"Do you want me to drive you to the town square?"
"No, but thanks for the offer, I think I'm just going to walk," Elena replied she's probably had enough of cars for today.
"Kay, see you tonight," Nova replied with a soft smile.
"See you tonight, thanks for driving me, Nova." Elena smiled at her friend before leaving the car.
"Not like I had much of choice." She mumbled in the empty vehicle. She waited until Elena got in the house safely before driving away towards home, the girls have to pass out fliers for the comet later, but she has enough time to relax before she has to pick up Caroline.
The first thing she did once she got home was kick off her shoes, the second thing she did was feed Merlin, the third was turn the TV on and grab a bowl of ice cream and collapse on the couch next to her cat.
She's halfway finished with 'Iron Man' and her bowl of ice cream when she can hear the front door opening, she petted Merlin feeding him the rest of the ice cream that melted because she got distracted by the awesomeness that's Tony Stark.
"If that's someone coming to kill me, could you wait for another hour, Iron Man's about to blow up some shit, I can't miss this, I promise you can kill me later." She said absently, not really concerned because she knows who it is, her eyes still on the TV.
Bonnie snorted in amusement before sitting next to her sister and laying her head on her sister's shoulder. "What if I had been a serial killer?" Bonnie asked in amusement as they both watched the movie.
"Then you'd be knocked out by my kick ass magical powers."
"And if that didn't work?"
"..I'd be dead."
"That's comforting."
Nova didn't respond just watching the movie after a moment of silence Bonnie spoke up, distracting her from the movie, "What happened at the Boarding house?"
Nova shrugged pulling Merlin away from the licked clean bowl with a sigh, "Stefan was short with us, I can't entirely blame him, considering his brother was there," She replied shocking Bonnie slightly, who shifted her head off Nova's shoulder before turning towards her sister. "Did he do anything?"
"You mean like try to eat us in the not so pleasant manner?" Nova asked rhetorically, slightly amused when Bonnie hit her lightly on the arm."No, he just subtly taunted Stefan with the fact he was near his beloved Elena for longer than five minutes."
Bonnie sighed in relief as Nova paused the movie before turning towards her sister, "You okay?" Nova asked softly.
Bonnie nodded her head in confirmation, "I'm fine, just on edge, I'm scared, yes, but I'm more frustrated with this waiting game, I hate doing nothing."
Their quiet for a moment as Bonnie calms down from her minor freak out, "We should go, Caroline will kill us if we're late." Bonnie said with a sigh.
"We should put a sign on her that says; beware, dangerous control freak lurking in distance," Nova joked after slipping on her shoes and walking out the home with Bonnie; she's still slightly worried about Merlin being home alone, in her old life the only reason she left the house was to go to her part-time job, and their father still hasn't gotten the cat flap installed.
Bonnie laughed at her joke hopping into her car, "I'll see you at the town square, Nova."
Nova waved before unlocking her car door and after checking her face in the mirror to make sure she doesn't have any ice cream on her face, she starts the car and drove towards The Forbes's home.
Parking on their street, she lightly pressing on the car horn, she barely had to wait for less than a minute before Caroline came out the door, two cardboards box in hand, Nova got out the car to pop the trunk.
"Hey!" Caroline greeted once she put the boxes in the trunk.
"Hey, yourself," Nova returned with a grin, before shutting the trunk, they got into the car, the music on low.
Once they were buckled in Caroline continued, "So...are you excited for the comet?" Caroline knows how nerdy her friend is, no matter how 'cool' people think she is; Nova still nerds out over stuff like this.
"Well, duh, it's been one-hundred and forty-five years since it's passed over, comets are basically cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, it's really small compared to the other stuff in space, but it's still probably as big as the town itself, and just think I'll probably be dead by the time the next one passes." Nova rambled excitedly as she pulled off the street, and drove towards the town square.
"Okay, Galileo, don't get too excited, we don't have any time for you to take care of it," Caroline cuts the girl off before she could rant even longer, making Nova huff in amusement, before Caroline continues, "Also, really morbid on the whole you being dead thing." Nova shrugged still smiling.
"So..what happened with the whole Stefan thing, they didn't bang each other while you were still in the room, right?" Caroline questioned after a beat of silence, Caroline apparently having the same thought process as Nova.
"Nothing, he ignored her while glaring at his brother the whole time we were there," Nova replied while parking next to the town square.
They got out the car and walked towards the town square, they could see Bonnie already there, so they started walking towards her. "What do you mean he ignored her, and what brother?" Caroline questioned while they walked.
"I mean he ignored her to glare at Damon Salvatore, the elusive older brother, you might know him as the eye-fucker from the Mystic Grill, after the back to school party," Nova replied, smiling at the shocked Caroline, who had stopped walking before she walked away towards Bonnie.
"Hey, don't leave me like that!" Caroline yelled at Nova's back, using her longer legs to catch up to the fast paced girl. "You're telling me eye-fucker is Stefan's brother, and eye-fucker's last name is Salvatore, why am I not surprised..."Caroline trailed off, as they reached an amused Bonnie.
"Eye-fucker?" Bonnie inquired, her eyes dancing in amusement.
"Damon Salvatore aka the one who eye-fucked both of us at the back to school party." Caroline clarified before turning back to Nova in a 'well continue' manner.
"Damon subtly, not subtly, acted like an asshole towards Stefan, while Stefan was so angry at Damon that he didn't even glance towards us," Nova replied while Elena walked towards them.
Elena looked at them questioningly so Nova clarified, "I was just telling them, about what happened, with The Salvatore's pissing match." Elena nodded, sighing at the reminder.
Caroline shoved fliers at both Nova and Elena, Bonnie already had hers in hand.
"I can't believe I'm saying this, and under normal circumstances, I wouldn't, but let's not talk about boys anymore, let's get to work ladies!" Caroline ordered, before strutting away, the girls shared an amused smile before Nova followed after the blonde.
"Since when does Caroline Forbes not want to talk about boys?" Nova teases as soon as she caught up to the blonde who already started passing out fliers.
Caroline rolled her eyes as she passed a flier to a passerby, "Since we had work to do, now pass out the fliers, Nova," Caroline reminded her, before raising her voice,"Tonight's the night of the comet, won't be around for another hundred years, would you like a program!?"
"Actually it's one hundred and forty-five years." Nova corrects absently while passing out a flier.
"Just pass the freaking fliers out."
"Yes, ma'am."
Twenty-minutes later Nova and Caroline had passed out all of their fliers, that's when she felt eyes watching her. Nova tilted her head slightly, eyes flickering over each person, till they met a certain blue-eyed vampire, she stared right back until Caroline nudged her.
"I'm going to go get the candles." The blonde says and left when Nova hesitantly handing her the keys, when she turned back he was gone.
Everyone in this town is such a fucking drama queen; including herself, Nova thought while rolling her eyes at the dramatics of Damon Salvatore.
The four girls met up in the middle and then they all handed out the candles. Caroline lit the first candle, before she lit someone else's, slowly everyone moved through the slightly crowded square lighting each other's candles until everyone's was holding a lit candle.
She could see Elena and Stefan talking before the girl storms off.
"Drama.." Caroline singsonged next to her, seeing the same thing Nova saw. Nova hummed in agreement, after a couple more minutes everyone blew out the candles, the high schoolers went towards the Mystic Grill, whilst the older crowd hung out around the town square or left.
They had just finished eating and were on their second order of soda's when Jeremy ran up to their booth with a worried expression on his face.
"Hey, has anyone seen Vicki?" Jeremy questioned the group of teenagers.
"You're her stalker, you tell us." Tyler retorted.
"I can't find her," Jeremy said worriedly, for once, ignoring the asshole.
But Tyler is apparently on a massive asshole roll and retorts with a, "She probably found somebody else to party with, sorry, pill pusher, I guess you've been replaced."
"Shut up, you fucking idiot," Nova said to Tyler, throwing her straw at him.
"Whoa, what's with the pill pusher?" Elena questioned, looking between Tyler and Jeremy before turning her brown eyes on Nova, who put her hands up in the don't shoot manner.
"Don't look at me, I'm staying firmly out of this drama."
Elena turned back to Tyler with a question in her eyes.
"Ask him," Tyler responded, looking at Jeremy with a smug look.
"You wanna do this right now?" Jeremy asked Tyler with a glare, while everyone else watched on.
"Are you dealing?" Elena interrupted the third pissing match Nova's seen in two days, the boys in this town are on a testosterone roll.
"She's never gonna go for you," Tyler taunted to Jeremy, confident, like the fucking idiot he is; and didn't Nova tell the asshole to shut up.
"She already did, over and over and over again," Jeremy shot back. Nova, Matt, and Elena grimace, mentally in pain from that image.
"You slept with Vicki Donovan?" Caroline looked shocked and a little amused before her eyes flickered to a slightly insulted Matt so she continued hurriedly, "I mean, Vicki Donovan slept with you?"
"There's no way." Tyler scoffed, his eyes disbelieving.
"And I didn't even have to force her into it." Jeremy retorted. "What the hell is he talking about, Ty?" Matt demanded to know, struggling not to punch Tyler without questioning him first.
Nova stared at Tyler with a vacant stare; if he did force himself on Vicki Donovan she'll have to castrate him. She might not like Vicki, at all, but forcing yourself on anyone, male or female, is just a huge fuck no in her book.
"Nothing, man, just ignore him, he's a punk," Tyler reassured his best friend, trying to ignore Nova's eerie glare. "You know what, how about all of you shut up and help me find my sister?" Matt got up, tired of everyone's fucking drama.
"We'll check the back," Bonnie said instantly, grabbing Caroline and Nova before getting the hell out of there.
They checked everywhere; Bonnie looked like she was going to try looking for the girl with magic but Nova did the whole talking without talking thing to tell her it wasn't needed at this moment.
They searched half heartedly for about thirty-minutes before heading back inside the Mystic Grill; Vicki had been found by then, so they sat at a table to rest.
"Ugh, it's just so much drama, ever notice how the druggies are the biggest attention whores?" Caroline sighed, while Nova nodded in agreement, whilst thinking that this current drama is going to look like a Black Friday compared to stuff that's coming.
"Yeah." Bonnie agreed, before looking up at an approaching Stefan.
"Excuse me, Hi." Stefan greeted with a small smile, making the girls smile, all three of them turning into goo.
"Hi.." The three girls echoed, trying to refrain from sighing out loud.
"Um, have you guys seen Elena?" Stefan asked the girls.
His eyes are so pretty, she should paint them later, Nova thought absently.
"I think she went home," Bonnie answered, breaking the other two girls out of their daze. When he looked like he was going to leave, his shoulder slumped in disappointment, Bonnie continued, taking pity on him despite the fact she's still wary. "I'm gonna give you Elena's cell number and her email, she is big on texting, and you can tell her...I said so." Bonnie said while writing Elena's cell number on a napkin before she handed it to him with a smile.
"Thank you," Stefan says gratefully, taking the napkin.
Bonnie has a minor psychic moment when their hands touched, her stare blanking out for a moment.
"You ok?" Stefan questioned, eyeing the Bennett in concern. "I'm fine, sorry." Bonnie lied with a strained smile.
"I'm fine, sorry." Bonnie lied with a strained smile.
Nova grabbed her twin's hand under the table, squeezing it reassuringly, knowing that despite the fact that 'the touch of death' doesn't bother her it might bother Bonnie.
"Yeah, they both kind of wig out, it's like their thing." Caroline tells Stefan in a slightly gossiping voice.
Stefan left a little while after that, probably to brood about the pros and cons of texting Elena.
Bonnie shortly left after Stefan did, to go makeup with Grams, and soon after that Nova drove Caroline home, making sure the blonde got in her house safely before driving home herself.
She's currently feeling very angsty, things have changed, Damon didn't go after her blonde friend, and that's a good thing, but now she doesn't know if he's currently feeding on some poor soul or stalking her instead of Caroline.
Or what if he's at Caroline's house right now and she was stupid enough to think he'd just stay away because she drew his attention to her instead, he could be hurting her right about now and she'd never know until it was too late and seven hells is she stupid how-
Nova slammed her car door, lost in thought, she startled slightly, seeing the elder Salvatore behind her when she turned around, before forcing herself to relax against her car door.
"...Vampire."
"Witch."
Nova folded her arms, looking completely at ease despite the fact she's running a list of pain inflicting spells in her head. "Any reason you're stalking me?"
Damon smirked charmingly, which would have normally made her a pile of goo if it wasn't for the fact if she let her guard down he could get a chance to snap her neck if he decides he doesn't find her amusing anymore. "What? I can't check in with the town's local Glinda the Good Witch?" Damon asked holding his hand to his chest, mockingly offended, when he see's his charm isn't affecting her, he closed the small distance between them.
"I'd prefer to be a Willow Rosenburg or a Hermione Granger, thank you very much," Nova replied keeping her eyes on the still smirking vampire that's curiously eyeing her. "Let's cut to the chase, you want something, what is it?"
"What, you're not going to try any witchy woo woo and warn me away from hurting your loved ones?" Damon questioned snarkily, with a raised eyebrow.
"I could.. if that's what you're into, but I think it's pretty obvious that I don't want you to hurt anyone I love," Nova snarked right back.
"You are either very stupid or very naive for not being afraid of someone who could kill you without blinking." Damon eyed her curiously while tilting his head in a way reminiscent to a raven, listening to her calm heartbeat.
"I'm neither, but if you ask my friends they'll tell you I'm a little crazy," Nova responded with mild humor before getting close enough to him to slowly slide away from him.
She started walking backwards towards the backyard, never taking her eyes off him. "And where are you going?" He asked turning towards her.
"Me?" Nova points to herself, leaning on the closed white picket fence that leads to the backyard. "I'm going to watch the comet I've been waiting to see for a while, and you," She pointed at the vampire, "You're going to join and tell me what you want."
"And why on earth would I do that?" Damon chuckled and despite the fact she knows this could get ugly fast, the sound of it sent pleasant shivers down her spine.
"Because if I'm going to help you, I need to know what I'm doing," Nova states, waiting for him to join her, she swears if she misses the comet because of this fucker she's going to be pissed.
Damon eyed her suspiciously, still not moving, why is he not moving, Nova thought impatiently. "You'd help me, just like that?" Damon questioned disbelievingly, apparently not believing her.
"Well...I would need compensation, and if I'm helping you, you can't kill or hurt the people I care about, but other than that, why not?" Nova shrugged, shifting impatiently.
She doesn't really mind, it's not going to hurt anyone getting him into the tomb, this time at least; it'd get more people hurt ignoring him. Nova reckons she can't have a vampire with his 'switch flipped' running around, and him finding out Katherine's more of a bitch then he realized will make him face the emotions he abandoned.
Nova's not completely sold on the emotion 'switch', it honestly sounds like what she does when she can't handle the world, only on a slightly larger scale; and Supernatural Beings seem to just do everything on a larger scale.
"So are you coming or what?" She opened the black iron gate, slipping into the backyard without waiting for his reply.
Her father either must be asleep or left for work again because the house lights are off. She got a text from Bonnie earlier about staying with Grams for the night, she's happy that they made up; they probably won't be too happy with her when they hear about what she's doing.
But she made a promise to herself to help everyone who she can; even the ones who seem like they don't deserve help.
Nova pulled her hair from her top bun, slipped her shoes off and laid back in the green grass, looking up at the starry skies; waiting for the comet and for Damon.
