With Vicky not bitten by Damon, her next day was quiet, she picked up Caroline early from Bonnie's and helped her blonde friend get ready for school. She had texted Matt to see how Vicky was doing and he told her that she was just hungover. Alexandra offered to help him look for a solution and told him that they would meet at school.

"So there was this guy last night," Caroline said as they walked through the school.

"Really?" Alexandra asked sarcastically, Caroline rolled her eyes at her.

"He was gorgeous, wicked blue eyes, dark hair and a leather jacket," Caroline continued.

Alexandra snorted, "I think you saw Cousin Damon, please stay away from him."

"Another cousin?"

"Stef's brother, I mean we all knew that sooner or later he'd be here, we were hoping on the later," Alexandra explained as they reached their lockers, "Please promise me that you won't hook up with Damon, Care, please."

"But why? He's really hot," Caroline said, Alexandra rolled her eyes.

"Cause he's currently a dick without feelings and you deserve someone better… like… uh… Like Mattie!" Alexandra suddenly said with a grin on her face before she grabbed Caroline's hand and dragged her through the school until she found Matt.

"Hey Alex, Caroline," Matt greeted them.

"Hi Mattie, you know Care, good, you're taking her on a date this afternoon after school, have fun," Alexandra said as she began walking away from them, grabbing Tyler who was walking towards Matt.

"What the fuck, Salvatore?" Tyler asked, Alexandra smiled at him.

"Matt is taking Care on a date while you and I drop Vicky off at this rehab center in Richmond ," she explained as they walked.

"Richmond?" Tyler asked, Alexandra nodded.

"I can afford to skip a school day, and you owe it to Vicky," Alexandra said as she walked to the parking lot, Tyler sighed but followed too.


Vicky had been a little reluctant to stay at the Rehab Center, but Alexandra promised that it was a gift from her and Tyler to Matt, Alexandra assured her that she wanted the best for her best friend and Tyler begrudgingly agreed too. They returned to Mystic Falls a couple of hours past lunch so they stopped at the Grill, they sat in the back to spy on Caroline and Matt who seemed to be having fun on their date.

"They look so cute, don't they look cute, Ty?" Alexandra asked as she ate a fry from Tyler's pile.

"Ah, I guess," Tyler told her as he continued to eat his burger, Alexandra looked at him confused.

"You don't happen to like Care, do you?" she asked slowly as she took another fry.

"I mean she's hot, but I'm happy for Matt, after Elena, he deserves this," Tyler said, Alexandra smiled at him.

She was about to say something to him when her phone rang, it was Stefan, she picked up.

"Yeah?"

"Do I want to know why you skipped school today?" he asked.

"Tyler and I were taking Vicky Donnovan to a Rehab Center in Richmond, we thought it would be a nice thing to do for Matt," she explained.

She heard Stefan sigh on the line, "If you want to do good around the world, you need to tell me, I worry about you Alexandra."

"Okay, I'm sorry, please don't tell dad," she said softly, Tyler smirked at her.

"I won't, if you promise not to do it again," he said.

"Deal, you're the best, Stef!" she said before she hung up, Tyler was still smirking at her, "Not a word, Lockwood."

"Hey, I'm not the one with the overprotective cousin," he said, Alexandra rolled her eyes at him and stole another fry.

"Anyway, Imma go home, the last thing I need is for Dad to find out," she said, Tyler nodded at her.

"You know, people are going to talk, they saw me leaving with you," Tyler said, Alexandra raised an eyebrow at him.

"Let them, besides are you really going to pass the chance to have the school think that you're sleeping with the hottest girl in town?" she asked with a smirk, Tyler blushed, "thought so, see you later Ty!"

She returned home and parked her car next to Damon's, she had to admit that her vampire relatives had style. As she was walking into the house, Elena Gilbert came out, Alexandra stopped in her tracks and frowned.

"Elena, hi," she said, the brunette looked spooked to see her.

"Alexandra, I, uh, I was, uh talking to Stefan, I met his brother too," she said awkwardly.

"Oh, okay, I mean, I'm a little jealous, I've invited you, Bonnie and Care over a few times and only Care has come cause you and Bonnie said that the house was creepy, but Stef's here and suddenly my house is a free for all?" Alexandra asked, slightly annoyed.

Elena had the decency to look apologetic, "I… uh… sorry, I just."

Alexandra's face broke into a grin, "just kidding Elena, god, you should have seen your face, it's okay."

Elena looked surprised and nodded, "I… uh… I'll see you tonight at the Comet?"

"Sure! Take care!"

Alexandra walked into the house, still laughing about her encounter with Elena when she came to face both Damon and Stefan in the parlor.

"Ugh, the testosterone is this house is killing me," she said, crossing her arms a smirk on her face.

"Alexandra," Stefan said as he turned to greet her.

"Uncle Stef, uncle Damon," she said as she walked into the parlor and plopped down on the nearest couch.

"You think you're funny?" Damon asked, looking at her.

She raised an eyebrow at him, "I think I'm adorable."

"I could kill you in the blink of an eye, little girl," Damon said as he towered over her, pinning her to the couch.

She looked up at him smiling, "then do it, just do it, uncle D, don't let your dreams be dreams."

Damon huffed irritatedly before he left the room, Alexandra smirked at winked at Stefan who was staring at her confused.

"Is he out?" she mouthed at him, Stefan nodded at her, she laughed, "he wants people to fear him, I won't give him the opportunity."

"Damon's dangerous, Alexandra," Stefan warned.

"I am dangerous too, uncle Stef," she said standing, she opened her jacket to reveal a wooden stake, "and a little paranoid."

"Oh," Stefan said sounding surprised, she smiled at him kindly.

"I might be dumb sometimes, but I'm not stupid," she said, Stefan laughed, "Are you coming to see the Comet tonight? Elena will probably want to see you."

"Are you going?" he asked, she nodded, "With who?"

"Tyler, I guess, Care is probably going with Matt, so it will be me and Tyler," she said.

"Do you like Tyler?" Stefan asked, Alexandra raised an eyebrow at him.

"He's my best friend, uncle Stef, of course I like him."


Alexandra walked around the Townsquare alone, she had left Tyler with Matt and Caroline who seemed to be getting along extremely well. She had seen Elena blow off Stefan and she was determined to find him when she was wooshed from the street. She held onto the person that was holding her as most likely Damon held her by the edge of the building.

"Uncle Damon, if you're going to kill me you can do it quick, your theatrics are boring me," she said as she let go of his arm, he tightened his hold on her.

"You are truly not scared of me?" he asked baffled.

"Why would I? You're a dick, yes, but you're family, uncle Stef told me a lot about you while I was growing up, how you were a cool brother to him while he was growing up and a bunch of sappy things, and I honestly thought that you'd be cool to meet, but you're just a dick, so disappointment of the year, I guess," she said.

Damon seemed to consider her words and stepped away from the edge, holding her at arm's length from him, it seemed that he was looking at her for the first time in her life.

"You look a little like Stefan around the eyes," he said tilting her face with his hand, "But there's some resemblance to me too, mostly the hair and the attitude too, I guess."

"Hurray," Alexandra said sarcastically, Damon smirked.

"I might keep you," he said.

"That's creepy," she answered.

"Damon? What are you doing?" asked Stefan as he joined them on the roof.

"Family bonding time," Alexandra answered for Damon.

"On a roof?" Stefan asked skeptically.

"He was deciding whether to kill me or not, I'm waiting," Alexandra answered as if they had been talking about the weather.

"Damon," Stefan said cautiously.

Damon seemed to think his options before he handed Alexandra to Stefan and disappeared from the roof, the two Salvatores exchanged confused glances before Stefan got them down.

"Uh, thanks Stef, do you think I can stay with Care tonight?" she asked, Stefan looked at her and nodded, "Help me look for her?"

They found Caroline close to her car, Alexandra walked up to her and pulled her into a hug informing the blonde of the impending sleepover.

"Do you need me to get you anything tomorrow before school?" Stefan asked, Alexandra nodded.

"I keep an emergency bag under my bed," she said, Stefan nodded before he left the two girls.

The girls drove to Caroline's house in between jokes, they got inside and closed the doors before heading to Caroline's room. Alexandra was complaining about the testosterone in her home, Caroline laughed as they shared a tub of ice cream. The next morning at school was too normal, Alexandra stuck close to Caroline and the two had fun, and even Elena joined them for Cheerleading practice.

After the practice Alexandra was expecting a quiet night at home, but Damon barged into her room and told her to change her clothes, she sighed but did as she was told. Damon stopped by a supermarket and bought a cake, Alexandra grumbling something about stupid vampires under her breath, he smiled at her and took notice of her necklace.

"I've seen that before," he said, Alexandra glared at him.

"Uncle Stef likes to give me stuff, he bought me my car and has taken me to disney world twice, which is why he's currently my favorite," she said, arms crossed.

Damon smirked at her, "I know what you've been doing with that blonde friend of yours."

"Good, you were supposed to," she deadpanned.

"Cheer up Alex, you're going to see your friends tonight," he said.

"You're insufferable, Uncle Damon," she said, looking away from him.

"Why do you always have to say uncle Damon?"

"Cause I have manners?" she said, Damon snorted, "Hey, I do, you've been mean to me, so you don't get the full scope of my manners."

"And I will spend the rest of your life apologizing," he said cheekily, she rolled her eyes at him.

They arrived to the Gilbert Residence and were invited inside, much to Stefan's charging.


The next day was tiring, much to Alexandra's luck, although she had seen that Stefan had gifted Elena a bracelet, probably infused with vervain. She sighed as she realized that Tanner was going to die, which was good, the guy was a dick, so she shrugged before grabbing Caroline's arm and spending the day with the blonde and Bonnie while Elena was with Stefan.

"It must be weird to you," Bonnie said as they ate chips in the cafeteria.

"Huh?"

"Your cousin and Elena," Bonnie said, Alexandra shrugged.

"Stef is a big guy, he knows what he does, I wish the same could apply to Damon," she mumbled.

"He seems nosey," Bonnie said, Alexandra snorted.

"Preach it sister," she said before grabbing another chip.

Night came too soon to Alexandra tastes, she got ready for her game in her cheering uniform and spotted Stefan with the football team, she winked at him before she followed Caroline and the rest of the cheerleaders. Fortunately the game was cancelled when Tanner got killed so Alexandra got to go home early.
