[A/N]: Here's the first chapter. Enjoy!

I'm sitting on the couch, eating a bowl of chocolate ice cream and watching America's Funniest Home Videos. Caroline walks into the living room and rolls her eyes while I chuckle at the cat trying to disentangle itself from the blinds.

"I can't believe you actually find that entertaining," she remarks.

I grin. "How can you not? This is quality entertainment."

Caroline sighs and grabs her purse. "I'm meeting Elena and Bonnie at the Grill. No inviting Kol over while I'm gone."

I pout. "But he's my bestie!"

Caroline glares at me. "He's also a murdering psycho. Just, behave."

Just before she closed the door, I hollered, "You know you love me!" I heard her laugh as the door shut.

As soon as she was gone, I picked up my phone and called the Mikaelson house. After the first ring, someone picked up.

"Hello, Jamie. What can I do for you?" I smiled at Klaus's light tone.

"You can give the phone to your little brother. And Caroline's at the Grill, if you're interested."

He chuckled. "Thanks for that bit of information." I heard him faintly call out, "Kol! Phone's for you!"

Not a moment later, he was on the phone. "Hey, Jay! What's up?"

I smiled. "Nothing much. Caroline's out and I'm watching AFV. Want to come over?"

He laughed. "I'll be there in a second," and with that he hung up. I clicked end just as the doorbell rang. I went over and opened it, letting Kol in. He automatically walked over to the couch and sat down on 'his end'.

Ever since I'd met him, Kol and I were best friends. We both had a sense of humor, but his was infinitely dirtier than mine. We both enjoyed being young and slightly immature, Kol more than me.

After an hour of laughing over people's stupidity, we turned off the TV and played Temple Run on my phone. We were really competitive, and he was currently trying to beat my high score. Out of the blue, he said, "You know, my brother's got a thing for you."

I looked at him curiously. "Which brother?"

He didn't even look up from the game. "Nik, of course."

I scoffed. "Klaus doesn't have a thing for me. He has the biggest crush on Care, though. You're confusing me with her."

His game ended, and he sighed in frustration. "This stupid game! And no, I haven't mixed you two up. He's never really fancied Caroline. You should hear him at home. 'Jamie has an archery competition tonight, does anyone want to go? Oh, Kol, how's Jamie?'."

I threw a pillow at him, and he easily dodged. "Oh, just quit it. No one would ever fancy me."

Kol tilted his head as he started a round of Angry Birds. "Why ever would you think that? You're pretty. If you weren't my best friend, I probably would have fed on you at least one time."

I lean over and smack him. He holds up his hands in mock surrender. 'Well, it's true. I wouldn't even guess how many times I've taken a bite from that one cheerleader, I think her name starts with a K."

I smack him again. "Dude! The council gives you guys bloodbags. And I'll let you guys take a bite if you need it."

He paused and looked at me. "You would?"

I nod. "Yeah, you guys are my friends. You wouldn't drain me dry. I'm much too hilarious," I joke.

We hang out in silence for a while, Kol playing on my phone. "I have to get me one of these," he mutters as he tries out Subway Surfer. I laugh. Who would've thought that a thousand-year-old vampire would become addicted to iPhone games? But that was Kol.
