So the only reason that this is up today, is because I didn't have internet connection for the day. I just wrote this chapter because I had nothing else to do.

The chapter starts with a flash back to what happened the night before, which is how the last chapter ends. I added some stuff to it, so you could see more into Chelsea's thoughts about what happened.

HayatoxAkemi: There is going to be more Klaus and Chelsea moments int he next chapter and addition to a jealous Damon :)

HoneyGee08: That would be a good idea, but I was going to have Chelsea be with Klaus at the time Caroline get's bit by Tyler. I won't say what else happend involving that, only because that's in the next chapter and I don't want to spoil it.

Psycho17: Chelsea wasn't going to admit her feelings for Klaus in front of Damon because (at that moment) Chelsea loved Damon. There might be some relataiation on Chelsea's end. I haven't exactly decided what, but it might envolve both Chelsea and Klaus.

I didn't have plans to put it up until tomorrow, but I guess it never hurts to be ahead of yourself :)

ENJOY!

Chelsea's POV

~Flashback~

I sped away from them, thinking I could run away from the pain. I felt hurt, betrayed, jealous, but most of all I felt hungry. On the road back to the boarding house there was a car. I stopped and observed. A man was changing a tire. The smell of something started to flow to me and up my nose. 'Blood' I thought before locking my eyes on the person.

"Do you need any help?" I asked the man after speeding behind him. He turned his head back towards me. 'Same hair and eyes' I thought as he looked at me. "I'm just about done, but thanks." He turned back around and finished changing his tire. I stayed, standing behind him, watching him. He got up and turned to me. "So, why are you out here all by yourself?" He asked.
"I'm hungry." Before he could even reply, my fangs descended and I bit into his neck. The blood flowed down my throat. I continued to drain him until his body fell limp onto the pavement. I looked at the body, slightly regret killing him, but I shook it off and sped away.

I walked into my bathroom, to wipe the blood off of my mouth. My eyes went to my necklace in the reflection. Damon had given it to me after I returned back, before I knew about my parent's. I ignored my thinking as I wet a rag and rubbed the blood off of my mouth.

I went into Damon's bedroom, took the necklace off, and placed it on Damon's bedside table before going downstairs.

I sat on the floor, looking into the fireplace. The bright flames danced and distracted me from my own thoughts. Every instinct was telling me that what I saw didn't matter, that it was going to happen eventually. They're right. It doesn't matter, but it doesn't mean it was going to happen.

I heard the door open but didn't bother to look away from the flames. The footsteps stopped.
"Chelsea." I heard Damon say. There was clear sadness in his voice. I didn't even budge or acknowledge him. He stepped closer to me.
"Go away Damon." I finally said to him. I didn't want to talk to him. I didn't need to talk to him.
"We need to talk." I still didn't take my eyes off the fire.
"What's there to talk about? You kissed Elena, end of story." I said easily hiding the hurt I felt.
"Just let me Explain." I decided to stand up and face Damon. Damon's eyes were filled with emotion, looking into mine. Every emotion of mine was pushed back, deep beneath the surface.
"What's there to explain? I mean, unless I'm missing something, it's obvious you were preoccupied." Damon stared in my eyes. He was clearly concerned, hurt, and worried. I started to walk past Damon, to go to my room. Damon grabbed me by the arm, turned me around and kissed me. He kissed me with everything he felt. I didn't care. "You've got some nerve." I said with a monotone. "I see you kiss Elena, and then you kiss me?" Damon's eyes filled with hurt. I pulled my arm out of his grip and walked up to my room.

I went straight to my room and onto the bed. My mind couldn't help but go over what I saw. Damon and Elena kissed. To be true, I knew it wasn't the first time. When Katherine first returned he had kissed Elena. He was drunk and Elena didn't care for him like that at the time. That didn't matter. This kiss, the one I saw, does matter. At least it did, why else would I have killed the innocent person on the road?

~End of flashback~

I took my time in the shower, letting the water flow down me. It's not like I was in a rush.

I walked out of the bathroom, with a robe around my body. There he was, leaning at the doorway.
"Good morning." Damon almost whispered to me. I didn't even look at him.
"'Morning." I said to him as I shifted through my drawers for clothes to wear.
"We are supposed to meet Bonnie at the witch house in ten minutes." He said to me.
"Relax, Damon. You don't want your hair to fall out." Damon stepped into the room, closer to me.
"Are you okay?"
"Why wouldn't I be?" I said before turning around to look at Damon. 'He's clearly trying to hold emotion back.' I thought. I could see through him though. His eyes were filled with sadness and concern, the same as last night. I looked behind Damon as I heard Stefan walk up behind him. He stood where Damon was leaning.
"Would you two hurry up? We have work to do. You know, Klaus isn't gonna spontaneously self-destruct." Damon turned to look at his brother and I flashed into the bathroom.
"Be with you in a minute." Damon said to Stefan. I could hear Stefan walk away. Knowing Damon, he turned his head back, only to notice that I wasn't there anymore.

I flashed to the witch house to avoid Damon.

"Bonnie." I said when I arrived in the basement. She turned to see me. "Need any help? Two witches are better than one." I said to her. She nodded her head and I walked closer to her. I walked next to her as she pointed in her grimiore.
"This is the spell that I'm doing." I nodded my head before looking to Bonnie.
"Seems simple enough." I said before we both started saying the spell. Bonnie stepped up to the coffin and tried to open it.
"Why won't you open?" Bonnie yelled in frustration.
"Maybe it just doesn't want to open." I suggested to Bonnie before the coffins disappeared. Bonnie looked at me and I put my finger to my lips, signaling her to be quiet. I sped through the house, but didn't find anyone, before returning to the basement. Bonnie and I looked at each other. My head shot behind me as I sensed something. I quickly turned around and pinned him against the wall, baring my fangs. 'No doubt one of Klaus's hybrids' I thought before he stuck a stake in my stomach. I fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Bonnie rushed next to me.
"Chelsea." She said with worry.
"He missed." I managed to say as I looked at the stake. Stefan and Damon rushed to me. Damon grouched down next to me. I pulled out the stake, threw it away, and looked at the wound as it healed itself. "This is one of my favorite shirts." I said as I stretched it out, getting a good look at the hole.
"You were almost killed and you're worried about the shirt?" Damon asked me with slight anger in his voice. I stood up, not answering him.
"Where is he?" I asked Stefan.
"Dead. Damon ripped his heart out."
"Well, I'm going to get a different shirt." I said, changing the subject. I looked at Damon for a moment before speeding out of there.

I slipped into the boarding house to change my shirt. 'Stupid hybrids' I thought before picking out a plain t-shirt. It wouldn't matter if I get staked while wearing this shirt. I made sure I had no dried blood left before speeding back to the witch house.

When I got there, Damon was hitting the hard-to-open-coffin with a shovel.
"You're wasting your time." Damon stopped and looked at me. "It won't open. " I stepped into the room. "If Bonnie and I can't get it open with magic, you're certainly not going to open it by hitting it with a shovel." Damon and I looked at each other. I could tell he wanted to talk about it, maybe to apologize, but he couldn't do that here without Stefan finding out he kissed Elena. My eyes moved from Damon to the coffin. Damon took a deep breath, to relax himself before he started talking.
"Klaus has 6 siblings. Rebekah is now with Klaus. There was one dead kid in the old world, one dead kid in the new world, which leaves Elijah and two others. Three," Damon looked at the coffins that we can open ", sleeping originals, four coffins. So who is in the locked box?"
"No idea." Stefan said to Damon. "But whatever is in here, Bonnie and Chelsea seem to think will help us kill Klaus. So the sooner we can get this open, the sooner we will know if their right." I smirked a little before Damon turned around.
"Oh you think spirits of a bunch of dead witches that can make the coffins invisible," He said looking at nothing, as if he were talking to the witches ", would have figured out how to open one." Nothing happened. "Fine, don't help."
"You know none of this is gonna do us any good if Klaus's hybrids find our hiding place." I said to Damon. He looked at me for a moment before his brother spoke.
"They need to go away."
"Oh yeah, that's a great idea Stefan. Why don't you just ask them to pack their bags and take a long rest while we are at it." I smirked at Damon's remark. He looked at me and smirked himself. "How about we keep the peace? Don't draw attention to the very thing we are trying to hide." Damon took a few steps closer to me.
"Well I'm not gonna play defense when we have what Klaus wants. He does what I say or we'll dump his family to the bottom of the ocean." Stefan said to Damon.
"And he kills you and everyone you know like, I don't know... me." Damon looked at me.
"No, he's bluffing. His family means more to him than anything else." I said to Damon.
"You sure about that?"
"Well I don't know Damon. I mean, I guess there's only one way to find out, right?"
"We'll just have to call his bluff." Stefan finished for me.
"The only way to call someone's bluff." Damon stepped closer to me, looking me straight in the eyes. "You have to be willing to lose everything if you're wrong." I looked into Damon's eyes, doing my best to keep my emotions buried. I turned around and walked outside of the house.

I stood outside, thinking. 'Am I really ready to lose everything if Klaus is bluffing?' I thought to myself. I already lost a lot. The ability to have a family, my parent's, one of my best friends, and not to mention my relationship. What else to I really have to lose? I took a deep breath before I felt a hand on my arm, turning me around.

"Damon." I said as I looked into his eyes.
"Chelsea, I need to apologize." He said to me with sorrow in his eyes. "I didn't mean for her to kiss me. It wasn't something I was expecting. I love you Chelsea."
"I know she kissed you, I saw it remember?" Damon started to brush some of my hair behind my ear. "That doesn't change anything." Damon looked at me with sadness in his eyes. I hate it when he's sad, but it's his own fault. Or at least, that's what I'm telling myself. "You love me and yet you let her kiss you. So unless you were drunk, I don't see a reasonable explaination." I held his hand that pushed my hair behind my ear.
"Will you ever forgive me?"
"I don't know Damon." I said, avoiding his eyes.
"I won't give up on you." I looked up at Damon. "Not until we are together again." I looked in his eyes. 'He's telling the truth' I thought before hearing Stefan's footsteps behind him. I let go of his hand, realizing that I was still holding it. Stefan started to walk away from us. I took a deep breath before following him, not looking back at Damon.

I followed Stefan to one of the biggest houses in Mystic Falls. We were silent as we walked inside. Stefan leaned against the wall while I stood still, near him.

Klaus took a couple of steps before raising his head to us.
"I'm surprise you're still in town. I gave you your freedom, you could have gone anywhere." Klaus said, looking at Stefan.
"I live here Klaus." Stefan replied.
"Well if we're playing this game, then, I was here first." I chuckled a little, which made Klaus look to me.
"You know, I don't like your hybrids." I took a couple of steps closer to Klaus. "Especially the ones that stake me in the stomach." His eyes slightly widened.
"Yeah, well I kind of like having them around." Klaus stepped closer to me. "Tell me what one staked you and I'll take care of it "
"A little too late for that. He's already dead." I said to Klaus before he turned his head behind me to Stefan.
"You know, I'm hurt. I hoped that when I free you, we pick where we left off." Stefan walked up to me and Klaus. "But here you are, guzzling vervain like the rest of them, I'm sure." Klaus raised his glass. "So much for friendship." He took a drink from it.
"Friends don't strip friends of their free will." Klaus looked at me.
"Okay, granted, that was a little extreme, but I get a little moody. Just ask my siblings." Klaus looked at Stefan. "Speaking of whom, isn't it time you handed them over?"
"Get your hybrids out of Mystic Falls and maybe we'll consider it." I said to Klaus with a slight smirk.
"You see, if you continue to threaten me, I'm gonna be forced to retaliate. Kill people. And it will get messy again." A small evil smile appeared on Klaus's face.
"Do whatever you want, we don't really care." Stefan said.
"You know what? Maybe we do. Maybe we care so much, that we'll drop Elijah in the Arctic." I said for Stefan.
"Well, maybe I'll be willing to lose one brother if it meant killing yours." He threatened Stefan. 'That's right.' I thought. 'He's doesn't know about mine.'
"Try me, let's find out." Stefan and Klaus were staring each other down, waiting for the other to do something.
"Is everything ok?" Mindy asked as she walked into the room. 'I remember her' I thought.
"Everything is fine, Mindy." Klaus said, looking at her before looking between me and Stefan. "Stefan and Chelsea were just leaving after failing to make their point." Stefan looked at me and I took a step back. I knew what he was going to do. In the blink of an eye, Stefan grabbed a tool off the nearby work bench, and used it to chop off Mindy's head. Klaus let out a light gasp as Mindy's body and head fell to the ground.
"Well, one down." I said to Klaus.
"You may want to send the rest of them away before it gets messy, again." Stefan tossed the tool back onto the table, turned around and left.

"Now it's just the two of us." Klaus said to me.
"Really? One of your hybrids just got killed, and you're already trying to flirt with me?"
"Well, I couldn't while Stefan was here." Klaus set down his cup. "And I certainly couldn't do it yesterday where your boyfriend could get jealous."
"Oh, you don't know?" I asked Klaus. "You're going to like this." Klaus looked at me with slight confusion. "Damon and I aren't together anymore." A smile started to form on his face. "So I guess now you could flirt all you want." I said before turning away from Klaus.
"What about tonight then?" I stopped and turned to him. "At the fundraiser. You could be my date." I couldn't help but squint my eyes at him.
"Maybe." I said to him before leaving.

So, is it a good chapter for being internetless? I was actually surprised that I got this chapter done in a day. I hope you guys like it.

If you have an idea on how Chelsea could get back at Damon, if she were to, please share it. Also, I'm still thinking of a way to maybe get Chelsea bit by a Hybrid. You're idea's are appreciated if you don't mind sharing.

*Spoiler Alert*
There is a Klaus and Chelsea moment near the end of the next chapter.

R&R 'till the next update
