"Your leg isn't broken and it would be better to keep that bandage on for a couple of days, but if you feel like you don't need it you can just take it off," the doctor said. Audrey had strained ankle and her thigh had a wound that had to be stitched. Her forehead had just a plaster on and she got some serious medication. The female doctor talked to her aunt on the side and Elena and Jeremy were with Audrey. She was sitting on some kind of doctor table and waved her feet in the air. No one of the siblings said anything. Audrey glanced Elena and Jeremy but didn't open her mouth.
Elena glared behind her and glanced out of the window that was on the room. She saw Stefan gesturing her to come over. First Elena looked at Audrey who seemed to be dragged in her own world, like always.
"I'm going to go outside. You two, talk," Elena said with a stir tone in her voice. Elena walked briskly to the door and opened it so, that there came just a tiny gap where she moved to the other room. Stefan looked brooding when Elena walked to him.
"Hey," she said and Stefan just nodded.
"You called," he said and rubbed his neck. Elena breathed and glanced behind her shoulder. Audrey was finally talking to Jeremy, the weight of that dropped down from her shoulder. She turned back to Stefan.
"Audrey was in a car crash the day after I found out about you being, you know," Elena didn't finish her sentence. She and Stefan were kind of on a break but this was about Audrey's life. She had no time for playing.
"I'm sure it's just nothing," Stefan said.
"Stefan when she was in the ambulance on her way here she said something about hitting a man on the road," Elena whisper yelled to him. The story caught now Stefan's fascination.
"What do you think it might be?" Elena continued questioning, "Damon?"
"No, I don't think so," Stefan said with a defending look.
"Well if it was then-"
"It wasn't, Elena. Leave it there?"
"Mystic Grill, huh?" Audrey said to Jenna who sighed and looked at the bar counter.
"When is the waitEr going to come?" Jenna sang and glanced at the man sitting on the counter. He drank something and turned to her.
"Jenna? You have been glancing my history teacher for a while now. Go talk to him," Audrey encouraged her aunt. She ran her hand through her strawberry blonde hair and glanced at Audrey one more time before leaving the table. Audrey chuckled silently and watched Jenna go to Alaric.
Audrey started to get up from the chair. She wanted to leave the Grill. Audrey limped towards the door.
"Isn't that rude. Ditching your aunt like that?" Damon slid before her. Audrey frowned and tried to move past him.
"Wow, what happened to you?" he questioned and moved back in front of Audrey. She sighed with a tiny burst of laughter.
"You brought me to my doorstep from the accident and you ask what happened to me?" Damon looked stunned after Audrey spat those words.
"Excuse me," Audrey whispered but Damon took a grip on her wrist. He took it and viewed the bracelet on it. He frowned.
"Stefan," he sighed.
"What?"
"Stefan, did he give this to you?"
"Yes?"
"Great," he sighed.
"What, Damon?" Audrey tried to go after him but her ankle didn't allow it.
"Nothing," he said and gestured for Audrey to turn back. Audrey lowered her look on the floor and frowned while she turned around to the door. She opened it and the sunlight shined straight into her eyes. She limped through the sidewalk and noticed a really nice car. She walked over to the black chevrolet and just admired the beauty of it. She almost had her eyes glued to the car.
"Can I help you?" a man questioned and as Audrey raised her look from the car, she noticed a man with dark hair.
"Is this yours?" she asked with a tiny smile. The man chuckled and shrugged his shoulders so the dark brown leather jacket. Another guy walked next to him with a weird look glaring at the other man.
"Dean?" the dark, kind of long haired man asked.
"Not now Sam," Dean said and smiled widely to Audrey.
"It's a 1967 Chevrolet Impala, right?" Audrey questioned with a tiny snicker.
"Yeah. You like cars?" Dean asked and deserved a tiny smack from Sam.
"Well, just the pretty ones," it caused a burst of laughter in Sam and Dean. Audrey looked at the two and a dark raven haired man walked past them to Audrey. It was Damon, surprise surprise. Damon first looked at Dean and Sam and then Audrey and after that, the car.
"Nice car," he uttered and glanced back at Audrey.
"I would like to talk to you," he said and it made Audrey raise her eyebrows. She looked at Damon from head to toe. "Alone."
"I don't really feel like talking to you," Audrey said and smirked widely. Damon rolled his eyes.
"Now don't be a brat," Damon said and grabbed Audrey tightly by the arm. Audrey looked at Damon with confused and angry eyes at the same time. Her brown eyes were flickering with anger.
"Let go of me," Audrey tried to shake his grip off but he was strong, too strong. She saw Dean and Sam step forward.
"Hey she doesn't want to talk to you, pal," Dean almost yelled and gestured Damon to let go. Damon looked at him amused. He was moving towards Dean but Audrey grabbed his jacket.
"Damon," she said and forced herself to stare straight into Damon's piercing eyes. He let go of her arm and just walked away, leaving Sam and Dean looking just as surprised as Audrey was. Damon's dark back was facing them as he walked away. Audrey moved her look to Dean and Sam.
"Sorry," she said with an apologetic look.
"What are you doing in Mystic Falls?" Audrey questioned and the question made Sam and Dean switch looks with an alternative meaning.
"Job," Sam finally let out.
"I don't suppose you're out to tell me what kind of job?"she got answered with a simple shake of head. Audrey nodded and studied their expressions for a while.
"We are with the FBI," Sam shook his head.
"Okay," Audrey whispered and looked at them from head to toe. Sure they were with the FBI. She just laughed and shook her head. Her phone buzzed and she dug it from her pocket. Elena.
"Sorry boys, it's my sister. It was nice meeting you," she said and turned on her heels while answering the phone.
"Hello," Audrey answered perky to the phone. A not so perky voice answered.
"We need to talk," Elena sounded worried.
"What's the matter?"
"Just come home," Elena said before shutting the phone.
"Okay?" she said to herself and stuffed the phone back deep in her pocket. What was up with Elena?
Jenna's mini cooper was parked in front of Audrey's house and as she walked past it she felt that something was wrong. As she walked inside of her house she saw Elena and Stefan sitting on a couch. She frowned and slammed the door so they would notice she had arrived. She waved her hands in the air and stared at them with a questioning look.
"Tell me. What do you want to talk about," she said and walked slowly to the living room.
"Do you still have your bracelet?" Elena asked and as she collapsed onto the couch she wiggled her wrist. She brought the bracelet to her nose and smelled it.
"Smells nice," Audrey smirked.. She almost knew what they were going to tell her. She eyed Stefan and Elena.
"What do you know?" Stefan asked and Audrey's smile turned into a frown.
"About what?" she questioned.
"About Damon and I," he said and Elena lowered her eyes. Stefan raised his other eyebrow and tilted his head slightly. Audrey had her mouth slightly opened and her body tensed up. She touched her bracelet and raised her stare into Stefan's eyes.
"You mean the bite marks on Caroline's neck, the picture of Katherine in 1864? What was all that?" she asked and Elena gasped. Stefan and her changed looks.
"How do you know about Katherine?" Elena looked at Audrey.
"I saw the picture," Audrey almost ignored Elena's look and stared at Stefan the whole time.
"So what are you?" she asked.
"A vampire."
"What? There is no such thing as vampires," Audrey laughed but when Elena and Stefan stayed quiet she got serious.
"I am a vampire and so is my brother and so was Katherine."
"Well, that is a real," she cleared her throat and got up from the couch, "I need to, uh, I need some air." Audrey walked out of the living room and heard Elena try to stop her but she just walked to the door, opened it, and walked out. It started to get dark and cold, and as Audrey walked down the sidewalk she saw all the happy homes full off light on her way to, where? Where the hell was she going? Audrey was surprised that no one came after her, in fact she kind of waited for Elena storm out of their house. The chilly air made her breathe fume in the air.
Her heels were making a silent echo as she walked by the sidewalk. Audrey moved her wavy hair behind her ear. She dug her left pocket and took out a small case of cigarettes. She pulled one out and placed it on her dry lips. Audrey's hands were shaking as she took her grey lighter out of her other pocket and light up the smoke. The smoke went inside her lungs easing her pain.
Breath shivering and gaze lowered she just walked. There was a bench close to the town center. She let her body collapse on it with the smoke in her mouth. Her vice was smoking. She had turned pot to cigarettes, not a good option, but she still needed something.
Audrey leaned on her knees and held her head with every few seconds she breathed in and out the smoke. It felt good to be alone just for a moment.
"Audrey," he startled her so badly that she dropped her smoke. She raised her gaze and noticed Stefan sitting on the bench.
"Really? Scaring innocent girls," Audrey glanced at him annoyed. Stefan looked at her, probably wondering how would she take all this.
"How are you handling this?" he asked with an raise of brows.
"You are a vampire," Audrey said and stared at Stefan.
"How do you think?"
"A lot better than Elena," he replied with a tiny smile. Audrey chuckled and looked at Stefan with a glance full of curiosity but then she remembered Caroline. The bite marks.
"Is Caroline a vampire?" she asked carefully.
"No."
"But there was bite wounds on her neck," Audrey frowned and shook her head as she talked.
"If I would want to turn you into a vampire I would need to feed you my blood and you would have to die with it in your system."
"Oh," she whispered, "so it's more complex in the real world."
"Yes."
"Why Damon couldn't use the mind control thing on me?"
"Because you have that bracelet. It has an herb called vervain, in it," he explained but the furrowed and glanced back at Audrey.
"When did he try to compel you?"
"Uhm, I don't-"
"Audrey," he sad firmly. Audrey raised her look back to Stefan, and something in him let her concentrate.
"The night when I was in the car crash. When I left your place."
"What did he say?"
"Something that I need to forget that he brought me from the crash place? I think," she stuttered. Stefan frowned and crossed his arms.
"What?"
"Nothing. You should go home. Come one, I'll take you," he grabbed Audrey by the shoulder and she felt wind blowing quickly through her hair and in seconds. The door of her home appeared in front of her. She looked around but didn't see Stefan anywhere. She smelled her breath and clothes. She smelled like smoke, Elena was going to yell at her. As she opened the door she saw Elena just walking down stairs.
"So?"
"Yes."
Elena got next to her and turned up her nose. She clearly sniffed the smoke.
"Audrey," she started.
"Please not now Elena. I am going to bed."
"You are a bad example for Jeremy."
"I am a bad example? Jeremy doesn't look up to me! He and I, we are alike, we understand each other," Audrey almost yelled, "that's why he listens to me."
Elena looked at her with her mouth open. She was trying to say something but Audrey's stand was strong.
"I'm going to bed. Good night, Elena."
