When they got to Elena's house, they ordered Chinese takeout, and when they were eating, they chatted and goofed off like they always did. Then, when everyone was through eating, Aimee went to
take a shower so she'd feel clean and get some stuff cleared out of her head.
She stood in the shower letting her muscles relax under the hot water. She thought about Klaus and
wondered why he was stalking her. What could he possibly want from her? She was just a normal
human girl. She had no powers, no fangs of any kind. She didn't even think she was the most beautiful
girl in the world. She was a normal, nice-looking twenty-two year old woman. It got to the point where
she was so confused about all of this, she started to get angry. She steadied herself against the wall in
front of her. She started breathing heavy, her hands turning into balled fists. Next thing she knew, she
was looking at darkness.
When she woke up she was in the guest room with everyone surrounding her.
"What happened to me?" She asked looking around.
"You were passed out in the shower in a pool of your own blood. If I hadn't got there in time and healed
you with my blood you'd be dead now." Damon said with a serious look on his face. Bonnie started to
say something, but Aimee interrupted her by yelling at Damon.
"Oh my God Damon! I was naked!" He rolled his eyes.
"Really Aimee? I wasn't paying attention to your body parts; I was trying to save your life." Aimee
forgot about what he could've seen and turned to Bonnie.
"Sorry Bonnie. You were saying?"
"Do you get bloody noses normally?" Bonnie asked, probably relieved to change back to the subject at
hand.
"No, I've never had a bloody nose before in my life. I don't even remember getting the bloody nose in
the first place." She answered. "What's happening to me?"
"I think I know what's going on." Bonnie said.
"What? You think she's a witch or something?" Damon said sarcastically, rolling his eyes.
"Yes; that's exactly what I think." She was obviously serious and didn't think Damon's joke was very
funny.
"This could work to our advantage." Damon stated. "Klaus probably doesn't even know Aimee's a
witch." Aimee was still in shock at the fact that Bonnie thought she was a witch; She was barely
registering what everyone was saying.
"I can't be a witch." Aimee said. They were completely ignoring her, talking about Klaus's plans. She was
starting to get agitated. "Hello? I'm still here." They still ignored her. "Listen to me!" Aimee yelled. All
of a sudden, every light upstairs shattered. The only light was the glowing of the embers in the fireplace.
Everyone went quiet and looked at her. After her little outburst and the heat from her anger went away
Aimee asked, "was that me?" Bonnie nodded.
"Aimee, its gonna be okay. I know it's a lot to process. I went through the same thing, and I can help
you. Why don't you just try to get some sleep and we'll work on it in the morning?"
"Okay." Everyone told her goodnight and left except for Damon. When he got up to leave she told him
to stay. He smiled.
"I was just turning off the light." He crawled in bed beside Aimee and wrapped her up in his protecting
arms, and she finally went to sleep.
