He puts his arm around Elizabeth. Everyone is done eating so he pays the bill. Now, they've gone over to the bar area and are shooting pool and drinking.

Elizabeth: "What is with Stefan? Is he your stalker or something? Every time I turn around he is up your ass."

Damon starts laughing.

Damon: "I forgot how incredibly cute humans are when they're drunk. Anyway, no he's not a stalker. He's more like a dirty diaper. He's always on my ass and full of shit. He's trying to warn my about someone trying to kill me. Oooh, I always have someone trying to kill me. Problem is they end up dead before they even get a good head start on me. I'm good like that."

He winks and finishes his drink. Now he's bent over the pool table taking his turn.

Jessica: "Wow. The fictitious Stefan Salvatore exists. That brings so much more promise to you and your cheery outlook on things."

Damon: "Ouch. That really hurt. There is nothing wrong with my outlook on things. I just don't sugar coat anything. If you want to hook up with Stefan, be my guest. I'm not a match maker so you'll have to run into him on your own. No double dating here. I don't know why you'd want to hook up with Bob the Buzz kill anyway."

Jessica: "Maybe it's because I am curious about the less vicious and more personable brother. I see nothing wrong with his chivalry."

Damon: "Wait. He's like a fungus. He grows on you and eventually eats you up from the inside. Then before you know it, you're dead from boredom. I told him that my rogue had a child and he told me not to tell the daughter I knew the mother. How the hell is that supposed to work?"

Elizabeth: "Well, let's see this from the daughter's point of view. Some dude she's known a little less then 6 months is claiming to be a vampire. He also claims he turned her mother into a vampire because he didn't want her baby to die. So, in some backward attempt to save your life, he killed your mom. Now, he's standing before you acting like your best friend and trying to convince you that your part vampire because she had vampire blood in her system when she died. Therefore, kill you and giving you the blood to live. Sound a bit weird to you?"

Damon stops and looks like he's seriously thinking about what she just said.

Damon: "Well, now that you put it like that, it does sound weird. But, it's exactly what happened and I wouldn't bullshit you about what happened to your mom or why Gran might not have said anything. Mom didn't want Gran to know she was even a vampire. So, she wouldn't mention the fact that her granddaughter had vampire tendencies as well."

Elizabeth: "You also assume that the daughter is just going to accept what you say. Who's to say she doesn't have some of her own ideas about whom she is and why she was kept a secret for so long."

Damon: "She does. She has many ideas. The first idea she shared was that she was part vampire and had been researching it for awhile. I just confirmed that I was the maker and she had my blood in her heir. Now, we're bonded. The only way we could bond closer is if I fed you my blood and made you a vampire."

Elizabeth: "Ok. I'm not ready for that step. I like being human with human friends and family. I'd be all alone out there in the world as a vampire. That doesn't appeal to me one bit. Besides, what's it like to live forever anyway?"

Damon: "It's wonderful. I've seen so many changes in this world we live in. I've watched the South go from a segregated war zone into a booming farming community. I've watched the North go from a bunch of red necks who thought slavery was awesome to an accepting society that takes care of all kinds of people. Now, the whole homosexual side of the human relationship kind of freaks me out to be honest with you. But, we've been doing it for years. Blood is blood no matter who it comes from. The women are just faster then they were back in the good ol' days and the men are a little cruder. That part could be improved on, but I'm not one to dwell on years passed. This is the 21st century and we mind as well have a good time with it."

Elizabeth: "Ok. I'll give you the history lesson may be a little cool. The whole being extremely strong and extremely fast could come in handy and the mind reading thing may be awesome too. I'll give you that, but it sounds lonely."

Damon: "You're a vampire. You live off of killing people and sucking blood. Who do you think wants to be friends with someone who regularly does those things? Not to mention it's illegal in the human realm. You befriend a vampire and he kills someone around you, you become an accessory and the vampire becomes a statistic."

Jessica: "So, that whole keeping your existence a secret thing is true."

Damon: "Yes. Never hunt in front of another human and if one catches you, they're dessert basically."

Jessica makes a face and shivers.

Jessica: "Talk about drastic measures."

Elizabeth: "So, why are their others out there trying to kill you?"

Damon: "Well, let's see I probably ate one of their girlfriends. I don't know. I'd have to get inside someone's head who was working for them and I'd have to know who they are. At this point, it's just some bullshit that Stefan and Elena are cooking up over the e mail wires. I have no clue what's going on."

Elizabeth: "And why would these unfriendly types want anything to do with me?"

Damon: "Number one, you know too much and they would kill Jessica for knowing what she knows too. They don't care about Google search and all that crap. They're old school and want none of this to get out. Second, you're fascinating. If one of those old school types gets a hold of you, it's going to be like Dr. Jeckel and Mr. Hyde. One is going to want to take you apart and figure out how you tick inside and the other is going to want to see what happens when you full on change. It's just like you said trying to make sense of something that shouldn't exist in the first place."

Elizabeth: "Wonderful. I'm the new experimental toy. That's just great. Can I please go back to be a human and living a normal life? This whole half breed thing is really starting to annoy the hell out of me. I don't think I can handle any more surprises tonight. What about this Vervain that you said protects against them?"

Damon: "I'll find you both some tonight. You'll need it to ward off any kind of compelling from them."

Jessica: "Oh goodie. I get to hang my life on witch craft. This ought to be super fun. Good think I'm drunk."

Meanwhile, the night goes on and the happy trio gets drunk and finishes playing pool. Damon leads the girls back to his house.
