Mia woke to the sound of a phone ringing. The sound was faint but to a vampire's hearing it was loud. Turning over on her side to reach for the end table she saw her phone with an incoming call from Rebekah. "Turn it off, people are sleeping over here" she heard Damon say softly.

She turned her head to see Damon at her side and Kol lying next to Damon. "Shut up Salvatore" Kol mumbled under his breath as he pulled the covers higher over his head. Mia held her hand over her mouth to cover up a laugh that was coming. She watched silently as Damon turned on his side, his arms snugly securing Kol in his hold. Neither of them knew what was happening.

Then Kol's eyes burst open and he rolled off the side of the bed. Now she couldn't resist laughing. Tears nearly rolled down her cheeks, tears of joy. Kol stood up from the floor in his underwear. "Not funny" he said with a frown which made him appear like a little sad boy. The look didn't suit him.

"Honey, get back in bed" Damon added onto the joke as if he didn't care that he came off looking like a gay dude. Kol ignored the comment and looked around the room, searching for his pants. He gave up the search. "Where the hell are my clothes?" he thought aloud and frustratingly.

"Jeez calm down. Just grab a pair from my closet" Damon suggested.

"No offense, Salvatore. But you don't exactly have the best sense of fashion"

"And I can't believe your wearing that brand of underwear, Mikaelson"

"Girls! Stop fighting and get dressed" Mia cut in.

Kol rolled his eyes and slipped on a pair of Damon's jeans and a long sleeve shirt and a pair of boots. Mia also couldn't find her clothes so she too was forced to wear Damon's clothes, settling into a button up long sleeve that barely covered her ass. "I look terrible" she complained.

"I think you look cute" Kol spoke and kissed her lightly on the cheek. And then Damon asked the question that was on all of their minds. "What happened last night?" he asked. None could give a reasonable answer.

"I don't even wanna know if we ended up sleeping together" Mia said. She was shocked once they walked downstairs and Damon still offered them a drink. She'd drunk enough last night. "Do you live on whiskey?" Kol asked.

"Finally you guys are awake. Heard a lot of noises last night" Stefan said, which half scared them. What kind of noises?

"I nearly called the cops with all the music and shouting. You must've had fun" Stefan added on.

Kol and Mia returned to the Mikaelson mansion, walking unsteadily and drunkenly. "There they are" they heard Klaus say from the sitting room where he sat slouched on the sofa with a drawing pad and pencil. Kol sat down beside him, his head rested on Klaus' shoulder.

"Oh brother what a talent you have" he said, being nosy and annoying as he saw Klaus' drawing of a rose. "Brother...I want you to draw me like one of your French girls...naked" Kol joked and Mia wasn't sure if he knew what he was saying. Klaus sighed.

"Get Mia to draw it, she's got as much talent as I do" Klaus said, turning the attention to her, and then Kol rushed to her with a puppy dog stare to convince her. "Not right now and I will not draw you naked" she said.

Damon was too cheerful and happy as he stepped out of the shower. He hummed a tune, Katy Perry's 'I kissed a girl'. After putting his clothes on he returned downstairs to pour himself a glass of whiskey. "You're in a good mood" Elena said as she closed the front door.

"Is that a terrible thing?" he asked.

"No it's good. I haven't seen you this happy in a while actually" she said.

"Well I have an excellent reason to be happy" he told her.

"What is that reason if you don't mind me asking?" she asked.

"Last night...I kind of...kissed Mia" he confessed.

"You remember that after the thirteen bottles of wine you guys emptied?" she asked.

"Small fractions of my memories are coming back bit by bit. I don't know about them though" he said.

He remembered faint events. The kiss, the beer pong, the vase which broke when Mia chucked it at Kol for asking her to lap dance.

"I wanna kiss her again" Damon said honestly.

"Are you crazy? She's with the Mikaelsons, an original who can kick your ass" she warned.

"Do I look like I care? Besides, you made out with Ripper Stefan who could've chomped you down" he said.

Hey can you meet me at the park- Damon sent her a text.

Sure be there in 10- she replied.

It was clod that night and Mia was glad she was dressed in a black trench coat that reached down to her knees and jeans and boots. She waited by the local park in the middle of Mystic Falls. She saw out in the distance that Damon was coming her way. "Took you long enough. Why did you call me out here?" she asked him.

He responded quickly by holding her face in his hands, pressing his lips against hers. She let him kiss her for a few seconds or so until she broke the intimacy between them. She placed a hand on his chest to spread some distance between them, taking a few steps back. "What are you doing, Damon? You can't do that I'm with Kol you know that" she told him.

"I care about you and I know you care about me too. Last night we kissed and it felt nice" he stated. She didn't remember anything from the previous night, especially the kiss.

"Of course I care about you. We're family" she told him and patted his shoulder.

"There's a but coming isn't there?" he asked.

"But I love Kol. We can't ever go there. I'm sorry Damon" she told him.

She walked away as fast as possible and returned to her car. She didn't dare look back at Damon, fearing she would hurt not just him but herself. She didn't want to say that it felt right; kissing Damon. But if she played both Kol and Damon she'd end up in Elena's position and she didn't want to do that.

"Where've you been?" Kol asked her once she entered his bedroom. The two of them became accustomed to sharing a bedroom from time to time. They even had a bedroom schedule posted on the wall nearest to the door. Mia took off her jacket and her remaining clothes until she was only in her underwear. She wandered over to the dresser and slipped on one of the nightgowns from her personal clothing stash that she kept there. "I went to talk to Damon" she answered.

He came up behind her. Usually him sneaking up on her would scare her but she was used to it by now. He had his hands on her hips as he gently kissed the back on her neck. She arched her head to the side and he then moved his mouth to the side of her neck, kissing there for a moment before nipping her skin and a drop of blood fell on his tongue before the wound healed.

She turned around to face him. He kissed her hardly giving her time to speak. And they stayed there until Kol grabbed the hem of the nightgown and he pulled it off over her head. What was the point of wearing pyjamas? He lifted her up into his arms and carried her over to the bed.

He kissed her all over from stomach to neck, to cheek to mouth. He seemed to be in a good mood. "Did I ever tell you how much I love you?" he asked, breaking the kiss between them. "Many times, Kol" she spoke in a quiet tone.

"Are you alright?" he asked her.

"I'm fine" she said but he wasn't convinced.

"What's happened?" he asked again. "You can tell me. I'll understand"

She knew she shouldn't tell him but lying to him was worse.

"Damon kissed me. And I kissed him back" she told Kol.

He didn't reply. He was silent but she could tell that the happiness was gone from his face. He was no longer in the mood.

"I understand if you're angry. I don't know how it happened" she said.

"I do...Damon kissed you. That makes him responsible" he said.

He ignored her gaze on him as he put on his shoes and a jacket. She watched wearily as he picked up a baseball bat which was resting in the corner of the room.

"What's that for?" she asked.

"I planned on joining the baseball team. I'd have a killer home run hit. But now I think I'll use it to beat the crap out of Damon" he said, not even bothering to hide his anger from her. Kol couldn't take it out on her, but he sure as hell could take it out on the Salvatore.

Kol arrived at the boarding house. He didn't bother knocking he simply twisted the door knob until the lock broke and the door opened. He saw Damon sitting by the fireplace. "Hey my original buddy" Damon said. Kol was by Damon in seconds, slamming the bat into his face.

Luckily the aluminium didn't break or bend. He was only getting started. "No offense. But we're not buds, not anymore" Kol snapped at him. "She told me. You kissed her. And as boyfriend that kind of pisses me off...just a little" Kol said, this time bringing the bat down onto Damon's back and onto his spine.

Damon grunted in pain and couldn't pick himself up from the floor as Kol hit him again and again. "Relax darling, I just want us to be even. You kissed my girlfriend" Kol stated.

"Yeah and she kissed me back. Doesn't that say something here" Damon said. And Kol hit him again.

"Shut up, buddy. If you so much as touch her again I will hurt you" Kol gave a single warning before dropping the bat at his feet and exiting the Salvatore house.

Mia sat on Kol's bed and waited for him to return. He didn't. And then her phone rang and she answered it.

"Kol?" she asked.

"Yeah it's me" he said.

"Where are you?" she asked.

"I'm not coming home, not for a while" Kol said.

"Is this because of Damon? It was one kiss it meant nothing" she stated.

"I think we need some time apart. You need to decide what you want and when you know, I'll come back. I love you" he said.

"I love you too" she said.

And with her goodbye he ended the call, and the tears started streaming down her face.
