*Three Months Later*

Damon Salvatore was asleep on the black leather couch in the living room. He had been trying to work on a case he was put in charge of from the police station, but he was so damn tired that sleep captured him within minutes.

Yes, Damon Salvatore is a deputy. He's still quite shocked by it too. He decided to join the academy just because he knew he'd look attractive in a uniform (which he does,) but honestly, after graduating (and feeling quite proud that he actually finished something in his life,) and getting out into the field, he realized he enjoys it. He was a troubled teen himself, so he makes it his job to help teenagers who make mistakes learn from them before it's too late.

If you want to know what pulled Damon out of his dark years after his father died (murdered even,) just don't ask. He'll tell you eventually, if he wants you to know. Or if he even wants you to know what it is exactly he did. But I'll just tell you that it was his younger brother, Stefan. Their father died when Damon was seventeen and Stefan was fourteen. Damon was about to turn eighteen in a couple of weeks so Sheriff Forbes allowed Damon to become the official guardian of Stefan (since their mother left them soon after Stefan learned how to walk.) Damon made friends with Lorenzo Lawrence and Enzo was what you'd call the "wrong crowd." Not the type that did drugs or anything; although they did love drinking beer together, just not too dangerously, which is just kind of ironic considering the things they did. Robberies, vandalism, that kind of thing. Mystics Falls had a bunch of murders going around those years so Damon and Enzo got lucky they didn't get punished too badly (that is when they actually got caught). Just a lot of community service, like a lot. But after a few years of Damon throwing his future away (because he was going to get caught eventually) and Stefan couldn't take it anymore, Stefan finally decided to do something about it. Stefan was seventeen now, and he has always cared about his older brother, even if he didn't always show his love in return. He had a little help from his girlfriend Elena, because Damon always had a little soft spot for the brown-eyed beauty. They thankfully got through to him. Damon decided it was his turn to help his friend, but that was tougher because Enzo had been this way since he was fifteen. Every story doesn't have to have a happy ending, but this one does. Although Damon and Enzo aren't partners in crime anymore, they are partners fighting crime together.

Stefan is the more liked Salvatore brother, maybe because he's the nice one and always does the "right thing" or whatever. He's best friends with Lexi Branson, Caroline Forbes, and Klaus Mikaelson. He's also good friends with Bonnie, Bennett, Matt Donovan, Rebekah Mikaelson, Jeremy Gilbert, Katherine Pierce, and Elena Gilbert. Yes, Elena and Stefan are still friends after their nasty breakup. Okay, it wasn't that bad, but if after two years of dating your girlfriend dumped you because she had feelings for your brother, you'd feel pretty crappy right? But they were able to get past it and are now great friends. Another thing you should know about Stefan is that he's an alcoholic. He never did anything bad in high school, his friends even joked that he was the poster child for perfect behavior. But college, as well as his breakup with Elena, put a little stress on him. Okay, a lot of stress. It wasn't that he drank to dangerous lengths, just the smallest amounts was too much for him to handle. Indeed, this is how he met Lexi. He was passed out on the grass outside her dorm, and so she kicked him in the ribs. He thought she'd yell at him for being so careless, as he'd heard that she was the "Stefan Salvatore of Whitmore College." To his surprise, she was sympathetic, which was much worse in his opinion. He did not want anyone's pity. More to his surprise, she wanted to help him. On their journey to his sobriety, they became the best of friends. They tell each other everything, and are even in pre-med school together.

Next is the story of Elena Gilbert, the girl who was torn between two brothers, one good and one bad. Let's start from the beginning, shall we. Her parents, Miranda and Grayson Gilbert, drove off Wickery Bridge when she was sixteen. Her mother died instantly, and her father used his last moments to save his daughter. Elena always felt like it was her fault, she still does to this day. She has a younger brother named Jeremy, who she loves dearly and always tried to be the "best big sister ever." After her parents died, her maternal Aunt Jenna became hers' and Jeremy's legal guardian. Also soon after their deaths, Elena learned she was in fact adopted. Though, she doesn't fall far from the Gilbert family tree. Grayson had a younger brother John, who dated Isobel Flemming in high school. They're Elena's biological parents; they gave her up for adoption because they were both too young to take care of a child. Little did John know that his brother was the one to both deliver his child, and adopt her. He kept it a secret for seventeen years. Another thing, Elena wasn't the only baby; she had a twin, Katherine Pierce. They were separated at birth. Stefan was actually the one to reunite them; maybe that wasn't the smartest thing because they actually don't like each other, but accept the fact that they're sisters anyway. Elena dated Matt Donovan in Sophomore year, but she was never feeling it. Their mothers were best friends, so when his had a downfall, Matt and his sister Vicky spent most of their childhood with the Gilberts. Matt's that childhood friend you date because everyone thinks you'd look good together. She dumped him after her parents' death, and it devastated him, but they still love each other as best friends. She met Stefan in her Junior year, and they fell in love instantly. Their relationship was sweet, kind and gentle. She helped him get his older brother Damon back on the right track. Damon and Elena had a special bond since the moment they met, though no one- not even them, thought it'd become anything more than friendship. She tried to fight her feelings for him, and vice versa, but she couldn't. She broke up with Stefan shortly after she graduated high school. Her and Damon dated for two years, and when they went to Vegas one weekend, they did the most typical thing and eloped. They both wanted it, and things have worked out for them. As proof, it's five years later and they're as happy as ever with their three-year old son Christian Alexander.

"DADDY!" Christian squealed as he jumped onto the couch and attacked his father. Damon groaned as he opened his eyes, and saw bright blue eyes identical to his staring back at him. The only difference was that his son's eyes shone of innocence, while Damon's didn't.

Damon sat up and grabbed the little boy and tickled him.

"Daddy!" Christian whelped.

"This is what you get for waking Daddy up!" Damon grinned as he kissed his son's forehead. If there's one thing Damon loves more than Elena, it's their son. (And his Camaro is a pretty close second, but don't tell Elena.) Christian is a mini Damon in both looks and personality, but he still has the innocence and kindness that belongs to his mother.

"Okay that's enough, boys." The father and son duo turned to look at Elena, who was dressed all professional in a grey skirt, white dress shirt and a black blazer with her hair in a ponytail.

"Why are you dressed like that?" Damon raised an eyebrow.

"I have a meeting for the newspaper," she answered. Elena has always enjoyed writing ever since her mom bought her diaries when she was a kid. She's now writing a book based on her life, but alternated to fit the fictional genre. Publishers really enjoyed it, and now she's somewhat of a celebrity (small town girl making it big.)

"Mommy's a celebrity!" Christian said excitedly and clapped his chubby fingers together.

"Yes she is, Chris." Damon nudged his son's cheek with his nose. "Aren't we proud of Mommy?" Christian nodded.

"Thanks guys," Elena smiled. Her eyes widened as she remembered, "Oh! Chris honey, Uncle Jeremy is coming over with Emma."

"YAY!" Chris exclaimed, standing up to jump off the couch. He ran across the living room, up the stairs, and into his room to throw some clothes on.

Emma Gilbert is the five-year old daughter of Jeremy Gilbert and Bonnie Bennett. The couple had been together since Bonnie was eighteen and Jeremy was seventeen. They were twenty and nineteen when they got the surprise they were about to be parents. Their friends and family were supportive, so things worked out fine. Jeremy works as a construction worker, and Bonnie took some time off to be a mother but she's now back in college. She also has a part-time job as a bartender at The Grill (she's lucky that her best friend Matt was promoted to manager of The Grill.) Unfortunately, things didn't work out too well in Jeremy and Bonnie's relationship. They broke up about two years ago; nothing serious, just the fact that they're love was short-lived. They have joint custody of Emma- Bonnie has weekdays, and Jeremy has weekends, but they bend the rules more than half the time because of work and school schedules.

Bonnie Bennett is the best friend of Elena Gilbert and Caroline Forbes. She also grew up with Matt Donovan and Tyler Lockwood. Her parents are Rudy Hopkins and Abby Bennett, who divorced when she was nine. She promised Jeremy that they would never be like her parents, who are nothing but cruel to one another, and true to her word they're still great friends who just happen to have a child together. Bonnie was always close to her Grandmother Shelia, and was heartbroken when she died of a heart attack a few years back. Over a year after her break up with Jeremy, Bonnie met Kol Mikaelson. He was a professional baseball player, and kind of a jackass. But after she dropped all of her supplies and things on the ground, he helped pick them up. To both their surprise, a spark had ignited between them when their hands accidentally touched. She didn't know if she was ready to date again, but Kol showed her a side to him that she never thought would be there. She has a feeling that it was Emma who brought out that side to Kol, as they bonded right away.

Jeremy Gilbert is the younger brother to Elena. You know the story of his parents, and of his relationship with Bonnie. He never really had friends, but when he started dating Bonnie, Matt and Tyler became his best friends. Kol's also a good friend of his too; and he's actually very supportive of Kol and Bonnie's relationship. Jeremy had an "emo" and "druggie" phase after his parents died, but he snapped out of it when he saw what happened to Vicky Donovan, who he was secretly dating at the time. He never went to college, but makes a pretty good amount of money for working as a construction worker.

Ring ring ring.

Jeremy sighed as he parked his car in front of the Salvatore Boarding House. He looked down at his phone and saw the word Katherine flash up on the screen. He rolled his eyes, wondering what she wanted.

Before he could answer, Emma started kicking his seat. "Dad, we're here! Let me out now!"

"Hold on, Emma. Aunt Katherine is calling me," he told his daughter.

"Oooh! Can I talk to her? Please," she gave her biggest puppy dog eyes.

"In a minute," he said. He picked up his phone and clicked answer. "Hey Katherine, I can't talk right now."

"Hello to you too, little Gilbert," Katherine's voice said, the sarcasm dripping through her words.

"What do you want? I'm dropping Emma off at Elena and Damon's for the day."

"I just wanted to talk to my favorite cousin." After the news that Katherine and Elena were twins- that they were actually Jeremy's biological cousins- Jeremy still considered Elena his sister, and Katherine became his cousin. It was strange at first, but they all got used to it over the past eight years.

"About?"

"I just wanted to know if maybe you and Elena could come out to lunch with me and Elijah this weekend? You can bring the little rugrats with you."

"I'll have to talk to Elena, but sure."

"Great! Elijah's siblings are coming too."

Jeremy thought now you tell me. But he answered, "Awesome. See you then."

"Byeee," Katherine sang.

"Wait!" Jeremy remembered before he hang up.

"What?"

"Emma wants to talk to you." Emma, hearing her name, ripped her seatbelt off and climbed into the passengers' seat of Jeremy's car.

"Gimme!" she squealed, reaching for the phone. Jeremy handed Emma the phone. "Auntie Kathy-rin!"

Katherine Pierce is the biological daughter of John Gilbert and Isobel Flemming, the twin sister of Elena Gilbert, and cousin of Jeremy Gilbert. Her and Elena were both adopted separately: Elena by Grayson and Miranda Gilbert, and Katherine by Peter and Susan Pierce. The couple had just gotten married, and wanted to adopt a child as they couldn't have one of their own. They took one look at Katherine and knew she was the child for them. The Pierces lived in Mystic Falls for a few years, but then Peter got a job in New York. Katherine found out she was adopted when she was eleven; she was snooping through papers in her parents' study when she came across adoption papers. She was upset with her parents for years- hated them even, but when her mother got breast cancer she decided to actually give her parents a chance once again. Her mother got chemo and thankfully survived the cancer. They moved back to Mystic Falls when Katherine was fifteen. She met Stefan and Damon Salvatore and instantly was attracted to them. Stefan was sixteen and perfect, and Damon was nineteen and a bad boy. She truly did care for them, but it's in her nature to toy with people's hearts. She's just that type of person that's selfish, arrogant, and vain. Finding out she was adopted, and her mother's cancer didn't help the situation. She does have a sweet side, but most of the time she's just faking it. At the age of seventeen, she wanted to find her birth parents, but before she could do some digging herself, Stefan- although hating her for what she did to him and his brother- introduced her to Elena Gilbert. For two years since Katherine moved back, no one had even thought to notice double running around. They lived on opposite ends of town and never had any of the same classes, but this town is really small you would have thought someone would notice. It only took the genius of Stefan to realize the truth, but even he thought Elena was Katherine when he met her. She wasn't the kindest to Elena at first, but she does love her sister in her own way. But the one person who has truly captured the essence of Katherine's heart is the one and only Elijah Mikaelson. She met him when she was nineteen, and at first hoped that he was another guy to play with. But he was such a gentleman, and so smart and charming and loyal and great in bed. Against her will, she fell in love. Once she realized she was in love, she didn't know what to do. She never felt anything like this before that it scared her. She broke up with him. But when he showed up to one of her modeling gigs (she studied both fashion designing and modeling while in college) with flowers and a whole big, romantic speech and the kiss of a lifetime, Katherine couldn't let him get away again. They dated for three years, and once she finished college and he landed a job at a law firm, he proposed. Katherine didn't want a short-term engagement. She wanted all the time in the world to plan the perfect wedding because underneath her cold exterior, lived a girl who dreamed of fairy tales. They married fourteen months later, and have been married for two years.

After Katherine talked to Emma and Jeremy she hung up the phone. She turned around to face Elijah who was drinking his morning coffee.
"I invited Jeremy. He said he'll tell Elena."

Elijah looked up at her and gave her a small smile.
"I talked to my brothers and Rebekah. They're all free."

"Perfect," Katherine grinned. Her smile faltered when she thought, "Have you told your, you know."

Elijah sighed, his good mood obviously faltered. "My mom? Yeah, her flight is Saturday morning."

"Well, at least we didn't tell her in person. She doesn't deserve that," she said bitterly. Elijah had only told Katherine the story of his family the night before their wedding. All those times she had met Esther, she thought she was lovely. She didn't understand why Elijah and his siblings treated her so coldly, especially Klaus and Kol. Once she knew, she hated every bone in that woman's body. Sure, she wasn't as bad as Mikael. And Elijah wasn't the center of the abuse, emotionally or physically, but he did experience it too. Katherine never liked Klaus that much, but she felt sorrow for him. She immediately stopped because she knew he'd hate her for pitying him.

"Katherine?" Elijah rubbed her shoulder affectionately.

She shook out of her trance and looked up at him. "Sorry, what?"

"I asked if you needed a ride to work. Or is your car fixed yet?"

"Oh! No, that's okay. Caroline is picking me up. The car dealership is on the way to the doctor's office anyway."

Elijah chuckled and kissed the top of her forehead. "I have an important case today, so I'll see you tonight."

Before he could turn away, Katherine called out to him, "You call that a goodbye kiss?" She hooked her hands around his neck and brought his lips to hers. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. She backed them against the counter. Before things could escalate the way Katherine wanted them too, a car horn sounded from the driveway. Katherine pulled away and rolled her eyes, "Caroline Forbes. Always right on time."

Elijah chuckled and grabbed his briefcase. "I got to go," he kissed Katherine's cheek.

"Yeah, yeah. My husband: Mystic Falls' favorite and best looking lawyer. I'm so lucky to even get five minutes with him."

"Bye Katherine."

"Hey, don't forget to kick ass!" Her words were cut off by the sound of the front door closing. She sighed and grabbed her purse before following suit. She locked the front door behind her and saw Caroline sitting in her car. To her dismay, someone was already sitting in the passenger's seat. "You've got to be kidding me," Katherine whispered.

"Hey!" Caroline grinned and waved her hand. The person sitting next to her was her boyfriend of four years, and Katherine's brother-in-law Klaus.

"Why hello Katerina," Klaus smirked as Katherine climbed into the backseat, his British accent evident.

"Why do you always call me that?" Katherine asked, clearly annoyed by his presence.

"It's your European name, you know. And your ancestors come from Bulgaria, am I correct?"

"Elijah told you this to annoy me. Well, it works."

"Just doing my job."

Katherine turned to Caroline, "Exactly why is he here?" She turned to Klaus, "Why are you even here? Don't you have to get to doing- what is it you do anyway?"

"I have the day off," Klaus answered.
"He's an artist," Caroline said at the same time.

"I didn't know tortured artists who work from home even had sick days," Katherine retorted.

"I didn't realize we had to bring you to get your car."

"Guys, will you stop?" Caroline exclaimed. "Now shut up or I'll stop this car and you can both get out."

"Whatever," they both said.

"God, I feel like your mother," Caroline complained. "And I'm younger than both of you!"

"Love, don't give her openings to more jokes."

"Yeah, love," Katherine mocked.

Caroline sighed and knew this was going to be a long ride.

Here's the story of Caroline Forbes because I bet you're all just dying to know. She's the daughter of Bill and Elizabeth Forbes. Caroline always had a close relationship with her father, which is why she was devastated when her parents divorced when she was seven and her father moved out of town. She totally accepted the fact that her dad was gay, but she just missed him. He tried to come back to town as much as possible, but as Caroline got older it became less frequent. Liz was the Sheriff, but she never had the best relationship with her daughter. But after the Gilberts died, Caroline realized how much she really did love her mother and vowed to be a better daughter. Caroline never did anything scandalous, but she did sneak out a lot and date all the wrong guys just to get a rise out of her mother. Once she stopped and actually communicated with her mother, their relationship got much better. Caroline's best friends are Elena, Bonnie and Stefan. Her first real boyfriend was Matt who she dated in Junior year but they both realized it was both puppy love. Caroline's first love was Tyler Lockwood. They dated for about two years in high school and one in college before Tyler proposed. I wouldn't say Caroline pressured him but she did hint it once or twice. The engagement only lasted about nine months before things took a bad turn. They started to fight all the time, and they eventually got to a point where they didn't even want to make up. Tyler thought Caroline was neurotic and a control freak, which she was. Caroline started to not trust Tyler, with lots of things. After the breakup, Tyler moved away. Matt and Jeremy are the only ones that speak to him. The breakup was hard on Caroline too. She promised herself she wouldn't rush into another relationship. And she didn't. That was until Stefan introduced herself to Klaus. She didn't think anything of him at first, but he was interested in her and made that very clear. They became good friends though, and I guess the love grew as time went on. It was those relationships that starts slowly before erupting so hard and fast, at least it was for her. Yes, the pair fight a lot too, but it's different from how it was with Tyler. This time around, they want to make up. And Klaus finds Caroline's perky personality cute and a turn-on not a turn-off. Caroline is in premed school with Stefan and his friend Lexi Branson.

"Thanks for the ride," Katherine said once Caroline stopped outside the car dealership.

"No problem," Caroline smiled. Katherine nodded at Klaus before getting into her car. She started the ignition and started to drive away, Caroline right behind her.

"I still don't understand what my brother sees in that girl," Klaus wondered out loud.

"Hey, be nice."

"You know that's not how I roll."

"How exactly do you roll?" Caroline laughed. Klaus just smiled. He loved her laugh, it was his favorite sound in the world. He also loved how he was the only one who could get her to laugh like that. She was also the only one to make him smile so brightly since his childhood. "Nevermind, don't answer that.. Do you need me to drop you off somewhere?"

"Eh, I think I'll come with you to class."

"Oh no, you're not."

"I want to talk to my buddy Stefan, thank you."

"Then call him," Caroline rolled her eyes as she stopped for a red light. "I don't really think Stefan has a life, so I'm sure his phone is always on."

"He has a life. Just not an interesting one."

Caroline shook her head and laughed. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a car park next to hers. The road was four lanes, so two cars can be facing each direction. She looked to her left and gasped. Her eyes widened when she recognized who was in the car and she quickly turned her head the other way.

"What is it, love?"

"Oh, nothing. I just have a neck cramp," she lied. Klaus just raised his eyebrow. "Just... don't look in the car next to us."

Klaus glanced over her shoulder and nodded, all humor leaving his features.

"Tyler Lockwood."

Caroline sighed and rested her forehead on her hands, but the motion caused the horn to beep.

"Crap!" Caroline swore as she slowly glanced at Tyler's car. He had just noticed her and Klaus with a shocked expression. His face also showed he was a little hurt. Caroline gave a shy smile and waved. He nodded in greeting.

"Care, the light is green." Caroline stepped on the gas and sped away before a second glance at Tyler.

Caroline didn't know what to think. What was he doing back? Five years ago, he packed up and skipped town. The only people who talk to him are his parents, Matt and Jeremy. Tyler ignored all Caroline's attempts at communication. She thought he hated her, not like he had any reason too. She never hated him. Not even for breaking her heart. She was upset, yes. But she still wanted to talk. He just fell off the face of the earth for her.

Now, what made him want to come back?

Phew, this was a long chapter. Just want to give a heads up, the chapters will be somewhat around this length so it'll take me a while to write them, unless I know what I'm writing, which I didn't for this chapter. But I hope you guys liked it! We heard everyone else's stories! I forgot about Jenna and Alaric, but don't worry. I'll get to them. And what do you guys think about Tyler being back? Should he be a bad guy or a good guy? I personally love Tyler (although he is my least favorite compared to pretty much everyone else) so I want to see him become friends with Caroline again. Aaanddd I suck at endings lol so that was bad, sorry.

Katherine and Elijah are inviting their siblings over for lunch to tell them something. What do you think it is? And does anybody have any other storylines they'd like to see? Again, I can be persuaded to write about anything, just ask.

(A/N: Enzo doesn't have a last name so I made one myself.)
