Hello readers! Before we say anything we want to apologize for not updating in so long. We've been super busy, we just recently moved and have had mid terms to top it all off. We should be updating more regularly now, and we're even working on ideas for a new story so be prepared! Anyway, to respond to all your amazing reviews:
- Glad you liked it! Damon and Caroline's friendship will definitely continue to develop, we personally think those two are really fun to write! As for Kol and Bonnie their relationship is definitely interesting and we are major Konnie/Kennet fans so you'll be getting lot's more of them!
Hollywoodlove09- Klaroline is in a very complicated place right now, but it's safe to say they're far from over ;)
Guest- Katherine is certainly a complex character who has a habit of making trouble! Thanks for taking the time out to review!
chhavi- Glad your getting into the story! Hope you continue to enjoy!
Guest- Super sorry for the long break in updating! As we previously mentioned we've been super busy, but the updates should be coming more regularly now.
Luah 07- Thanks so much for reviewing and we are extremely happy that you are enjoying. Kol and Bonnie are certainly a beautiful pairing, Katherine, Damon, and Kol are also super entertaining and fun to write. Room situations will be talked about next chapter and are going to be very interesting so stay tuned!
Guest- Hey! Thanks for reviewing, and just in case you were confused Damon and Elena got back together in chapter 17. Of course their relationship hasn't been perfect but as of now they are still together! Lol, Klaus does act childish some times and he and Caroline do have a long road ahead of them... Care and Damon are really fun friends and you'll get to see Elena/Elijah's discovery this chapter!
freckled98- The living situations are surely going to bring out a lot of drama! Your Kol/Bonnie comment made us laugh, those two certainly do care about each other and there is a major attraction there. As for Caroline/Klaus and Rebekah/Ric both couples have a lot of tension to work out, but they'll get there one day! Klaus definitely needs some help managing his feelings and his break up with Caroline is taking a major toll on him. Damon and Caroline once again are a really fun friendship and we're glad so many people enjoy them, as for the Fault in Our Stars, if you haven't read it, I definitely recommend it!
xXbrymlXx- Hi Bryana! Glad to see you reviewing again, and we understand where you come from when it comes to the long and annoying process of logging in and whatnot. Care slapping Elijah was fun to write, and Klaus could certainly benefit from some anger management classes. Glad you're enjoying the story and,
WARNING ORIGINALS SPOILER ALERT AHEAD,
Yes! We do watch the originals and OMG Kol! That scene was so sad to watch and I felt terrible for Kol. Hoping they bring him back again with the original actor because we honestly prefer Nate. My only problem then would be Kol/Davina because I can't really get with those two and (obviously) we are major Konnie/Kennet fans. It's unlikely they will ever happen, but still we can dream! Once again, thanks for reading and reviewing!
tippy093- Ric and Damon's friendship in this story is a bit different then on the show, but even there I'm sure we can all agree that Alaric tends to lean towards Elena and what's best for her in most cases, so for the most part he probably figured if Elena had a problem with it she'd say something. Damon and Caroline is a great friendship, and we're super happy that everyone seems to like them so far. Klaroline does have a lot to work out, and you'll get to see that happen in the chapters to come! Bonnie is definitely going to have a hard time persisting that she hates Kol now, and you will get to find out what Elena/Elijah found in this chapter and the first night in the cabin will be next!
Guest- Glad you liked the chapter. Klaus can be a bit annoying but he's really just acting out because he's hurt.
Guest- Good to know you liked it! Damon and Caroline is super fun to write whether it be as friends or a potential couple, it's good to hear all the positive feedback about those two.
Guest- Damon isn't using Caroline for revenge really, he started being nice to her because of his guilt for the 'Carrie Incident' and now that they've been spending more time together they are beginning to develop a real friendship. Thanks for reviewing!
Guest- Sorry for the no update in a long time! It won't happen again!
Luah 07- Glad you loved it, and yes, Kol does have pretty bad luck. But it's okay, because he has Bonnie ;)
MzKnowitAll- Lol, we understand your pain! We (incase you are unsure about it there are two of us writing for this story) have had several arguments about this because I personally see white and Gold but my sister/co writer sees blue and black. Anyhow, thanks for sharing your thoughts and hope you enjoy!
Rutvi darshak- Glad you are enjoying! As for Katherine I think it's a mixture of both, she always has something up her sleeve!
freckled98- Thanks for enjoying the humor! This is certainly a fun bunch to write, and we definitely understand your furry about the dress!
Guest- Thanks for reviewing, Doesn't everybody love Kennet?
xXbrymlXx- Well it looks like I'm at the lost here! As previously mentioned, my sister/co author and I had a bit of a debate about this since I see white and gold and she sees blue and black. Personally, just glad this dress stuff is finally over.
That's everyone! We want to thank you guys for all being so amazing and reviewing! Your reviews are what motivate us to keep writing and we're super thankful. In other news, please, if you haven't already, check out our poll! Vote, and if you already have you can now view the results for a limited time only! Additionally, how many of you guys are caught up on TVD because OMG it's been so crazy! Won't spoil anything, just wanted to say we've been enjoying it which is good since we were starting to lose interest in season 6. Anyhow, this is an extra long chapter as an apology for no update, so enjoy,
Klaus
"Where exactly is this miraculous thing you two found while frolicking about in the attic?" I question as I climb up the ladder and join my brother and Elena.
"We weren't frolicking. We were looking for extra blankets and found this." Elijah explains moving over a sheet to reveal multiple books with covers that seem to be slowly wilting away.
I walk over closer and pick one up and after flipping through it find that it's one of my mother's spell books. "I thought mother only had one spell book left." I mummer as I pick up another.
"So did I, but it appears not." Elijah says before adding, "These books carry some spells I have never heard of. I was thinking that perhaps we might find a spell to unlink us from father so we can be rid of him for good."
"Stop it." Bonnie yells shoving Kol lightly and causing us all to turn to them as they make their way over to us.
I roll my eyes before stating, "When exactly is your wedding again?" to which Bonnie scoffs and Kol chuckles.
"Who's getting married?" Damon questions as he climbs up the ladder.
"Bonnie and Kol." Elena explains shooting a teasing look twoards her friend.
"Oh darn. I thought that Klaus and Stefan were finally going to tie the knot. I'm totally rooting for Klefan" He jokes as he brushes off his hands.
"Do you have a death wish?" I ask glaring at him.
"Relax. It's bad luck to kill your future brother in law." Damon responds with a wink.
Before I can say anything Katherine calls out, "What's going on up there!"
"Come up and see." Damon calls back before anyone else can respond.
"Do you know how hard it is to climb a ladder in heels!" She complains, the tone in her voice making it clear that she plans on staying where she is.
"That sounds like a you problem Kitty Kat." Damon decides after a minute.
She sighs loudly before yelling, "I'm going to go look for some Oreos. Or Matt. Whichever comes first."
"Please don't eat Matt." Bonnie comments as she flips through one of the books.
"I make no promises." Katherine says before the sound of her ridiculous heels clicking away fills the air.
"She better not eat Matt. I thought we made it clear that I had first dibs." Damon comments walking over to where we stand.
"Damon!" Elena yells hitting his shoulder playfully.
"I'm joking." He says with a light laugh.
"You're not funny." Bonnie says looking up from the spell books just long enough to shoot Damon a look.
"Well, compared to Kol, I can understand how it may not appear that way." He responds causing Bonnie to roll her eyes.
"There's three books" Elijah states simply to end all the bickering, "We should all look through them and see what we find" he hands a book to Bonnie, and one to me, keeping the last one for himself.
"I'll help Bonnie look!" Kol volunteers, snatching the book out of her hand causing Bonnie to glare at him and snatch it back in response.
"No" I decide immediately, "This is serious, I will not have you're flirting delaying our chances of finding a way to be rid of that monster, and that goes for both of you" I say shooting a look to Elijah who seemed prepared to start looking through his book with Elena.
"What do you suggest Niklaus?" Elijah responds.
"Kol look through with Damon, Elijah with Bonnie, and Elena and I" I decide after a moment.
"This isn't going to work Nik, Bonnie will be too distracted missing me" Kol argues.
"I've never been more happy to hear you say something" Bonnie mutters to me, throwing the book at Kol and grabbing Elijah's, heading down the ladder with it. "Come on Elijah"
"Someone's eager. Watch out Kol, I think you have some competition" Damon notes nudging Kol.
"Unlike you Damon, my girlfriend does not pride herself on hopping from brother to brother" Kol replies with a smirk shooting a look at Elena who rolls her eyes in response.
"I'm NOT your girlfriend!" Bonnie shouts from the floor below.
"Have fun Elijah" Kol smirks to which Elijah sighs before heading down stairs.
"Do I really have to be his partner" Damon whines.
"You sound like a Kindergartner" I reply with an eye roll.
"Which just so happens to be the brain level your brother functions on" he fires back and I shrug not completely disagreeing with him.
"Oh come on Damon, I'm sure we'll have loads of fun" Kol mutters hopping down stairs skipping the ladder part.
"Good luck" Elena says to Damon with a chuckle.
"You too" he responds shooting a look of disapproval at me before kissing Elena on the cheek and following Kol to who knows where.
"Alone at last" I say shooting Elena a smile. She seems a bit uncomfortable so I add, "I should probably apologize for earlier"
Surprisingly she laughs at this saying, "it's okay, I think I know what you were getting at"
"I have no idea what you're talking about" I reply innocently.
"Right, neither does Caroline" She says as if she's caught on to something.
I roll my eyes at this before saying, "I still don't know what you mean" to which she nods and mutters, "Sure"
"So we should probably get reading" she says opening up the large spell book which opens with a thud and a blast of dust.
"Or not" I suggest slamming the book shut and tossing it aside.
She raises an eyebrow at this action and asks, "Aren't you the one who was all for searching for the get rid of Mikael spell?"
"I've already read that" I explain simply, "All of mother's spell books were written when we were kids, I use to read them in my spare time. There's nothing useful, I just though Elijah and Kol deserve some work after all there indiscretions lately. Plus, I have something more interesting in mind"
"Really, like what?" she asks curiously
"Time for another art lesson"
Kol
"Done" I announce flipping the page before skimming the next one and turning it as well. "Done"
"You know the point of you reading one page and I reading the other is both pages get read" Damon points out annoyed as he leans back on the couch ignoring the spell book on the coffee table.
I shrug in response to his comment and say, "This is boring, I need some entertainment or my head is going to explode"
"Bonnie's upstairs" he says simply and I smirk at the response.
"Thanks mate, have fun reading" I decide before hoping off the couch and racing upstairs before he can reply. Almost immediatly I can hear Bonnie and Elijah talking softly in the room I recognize as Elijah's. I practically skip down the hall, throwing the door open causing both of them to jump slightly looking up at me. Bonnie immediatly meets my gaze with an eye roll.
"Elijah, you know you're suppose to leave the door open when you have girls up here" I say in a scolding manner.
Elijah sighs muttering, "Shouldn't you be reading Kol"
"Damon and I are taking turns because we understand the essence of team work" I explain simply dropping onto Elijah's bed carelessly.
"You wouldn't understand team work if it hit you in your giant head" Bonnie mumbles causing me to grin.
"Challenge accepted Bonnie, why don't I join team Bonlijah to show you what a great team member I can be"
"Bonlijah?" She questions.
"I know, doesn't have the same ring to it as Konnie does, I guess our perfect couple name is part of the fate that we were meant to be together"
"You wish" she mutters with an eye roll that causes me to laugh.
"Everyday. So anything useful yet?" I say snatching the book out of their hands before either can object.
Bonnie seems annoyed by this but doesn't say so, "Not the kind of spell we're looking for but this book is amazing, there are some spells in here that I've never seen before" she admits.
I can't help but smile at the look of wonder on her face and think about how adorable it is that she gets so excited about all this witchy stuff. I had been quite the witch prodigy myself as a child, but those years were long gone and rarely thought of. Still, Bonnie Bennet always managed to get some sort of reaction from me.
"What kind of spells?" I question flipping through the book aimlessly. I land on a random page and look down saying with a smile as an idea rises in my mind, "Oh look, a Konnie spell!"
Bonnie gives me a 'you better be joking' look before snatching the book from me and placing it on the table in front of her. "This spell does not say Konnie anywhere in it!" she argues before reading out the spell name properly.
To this I chuckle muttering, "Whatever helps you sleep at night darling"
"That's how it's pronounced!" she argues repeating the name once again.
"Konnie" I argue with a hint of finality in my voice.
This of course infuriates her as hoped and she continues repeating the spell name louder and louder as if that will block out my continuous chants of Konnie. I notice out of the corner of my eye that Elijah now sits on the bed, sighing as if wondering about all the other things he could be doing at this moment. I don't let this distract me of course, persisting with my argument of Konnie until finally, Bonnie loses it, shouting the spell loudly with a hand gesture that shoots out a wave of power that is almost tangible. After a second Bonnie seems to realize what she's done and looks me up and down quickly.
"Are you okay?" she mutters and I nod in response. It's at this moment we turn to see Elijah who was thrown off his bed by the blast from the spell. I try to hold back my laughter at this and I notice Bonnie looks a bit too worried.
"Oh my god Elijah, I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" she asks quickly rushing over to help him up.
"I'm fine Bonnie, there's no issue" He responds brushing off his jacket as he stands up uneasily.
"You hear that Bonnie, he's fine" I say grabbing her arm to pull her away from Elijah who she stands far too close to for my liking.
"If you ask me he's more then fine" she respond looking at him wistfully.
I wonder if she notices the look of complete horror and disgust that passes over my face as I look between Bonnie who looks like a love sick school girl and Elijah who appears just as confused as I. It's in this moment that I recall what just happened and turn back to the spell book which still rests on the small table. And it is in that moment that I realize exactly what spell Bonnie just casted and ask whatever superior force there may be how I ended up with such bad luck.
Damon
"Caroline what on Earth are you doing?" I ask the blonde who stands in front of the room which I believe belongs to Klaus with her ear pressed to the door.
"Shh" she replies in return looking as if too focused on whatever conversation is going on inside to pay me any mind.
"Oh I get it! We don't want Kl-" I barely have enough time to finish my sentence before her hand is over my mouth and she glares at me mouthing, "Shut up".
I laugh slightly at this and she sighs before removing her hand and grabbing my arm, leading me to a room down the hall which will be used as mine and Katherine's temporary living arrangements. The moment the door shuts Caroline turns to me with a glare.
"What is wrong with you!" she immediately shouts.
I roll my eyes at this and take a seat on the bed next to my bag. I seemed to be the only one smart enough to take their things with them when we left the bus. "What's wrong with me? I don't know, you tell me James Bond. You do realize we're vampires, you don't have to listen through the door anymore" I point out.
She rolls her eyes but blushes slightly at the mistake, "Shut up" she mutters after a moment.
I chuckle in response before saying, "So, why were you spying on Klaus?"
"I was NOT spying on Klaus!" she argues defensively.
"Right, you just had your ear pressed up against his door to hear how well the sound waves travel through wood" I mutter sarcastically.
She groans before sighing and saying, "I just thought I heard a noise coming from in there and I wanted to see what it was"
"Really? A noise in a house full of people, obviously worth investigating"
She rolls her eyes again shoving me playfully before saying, "Whatever, don't believe me"
"Oh no, I totally do" I respond sarcastically, "So, what's Klaus doing anyway?"
"Painting. With Elena" she mutters not sounding too pleased about it. It should probably bother me too, but I trust Elena and I'm pretty sure Klaus is the last guy on Earth she'd ever cheat on me with. Klaus is far too obsessed with Caroline and Elena's morals are already stretched thin with her dating me.
"Jealous" I say teasingly.
"No" she argues a bit too quickly.
I laugh yet again saying, "How adorable, you're still in love with Klaus"
"Am not!" she argues, avoiding my gaze.
"Sure, and Bonnie doesn't like Kol"
"Do not compare me and Klaus to Bonnie and Kol!" she responds with a sigh and I laugh yet again at her expression, "Ugh! Why do I have the worst luck with guys?"
"Don't be so dramatic." I beckon, starting to unpack my clothes and tucking them into the nearby drawer.
"I'm not being dramatic! Every guy that I've dated has been a complete jerk or a psychopath!" She argues sitting down next to me with a very dramatic flair.
"Hey! That hurts." I say with fake dejection.
"Seriously, Damon!" She says causing me to drop the smirk.
"Alright, alright. Caroline, 99.9% of guys out there are complete and utter jerks, and about 80% of them are also psychopaths. All you have to do is look for that tiny little percent of guys that are normal, sweet, sensitive heart throbs. Now, if you want me to be honest with you, you're never going to find one of those guys. So, what there's left to do is stay single for the rest of your vampire life, or get over it and find that one jerky psychopath that your head over heels in love with. And considering that you are, in fact, Caroline Forbes who can't walk around like a single loser, it's time for you to start preparing yourself for option two."
Caroline stares silently at the door as if regretting ever starting this conversation, but then she turns to me and says, "Since when did you become a philosopher?"
"Guess you just pick stuff up over the years." I reason with a shrug.
"Thanks. Although I would have preferred more of a 'You are such a strong, independent, woman and you don't need any guy in your life' type of speech." She says a joking tone in her voice.
"You, Caroline Forbes, are very greedy! The world isn't a wish granting factory!" I decide causing her to laugh. Before either of us can say anything, there's a loud knock on the door.
"Caroline! Damon! I need some help out here!"
Jeremy
"Jer, where's the fire extinguisher?" Jake asks.
"Rebekah's room?" I guess.
"Thanks" he responds rushing out of the room as quickly as he had come. Jake was one of the most popular juniors at school, typically he wouldn't be caught dead talking to me. That was before I decided to throw the best party of all time.
I sigh pushing through the crowd of crazy drunk teens and trying to block out the blasting music which hurts my ear drums. I manage to wiggle my way into the kitchen, which is thankfully not on fire, and grab a cup of punch that was spiked by someone who wasn't Alaric this time.
"Great party Jer!" A few more teens pass by patting me on the back and greeting me similarly and I just smile and nod in return.
"Jeremy Mate!"
I turn to see Enzo standing there looking as threatening as ever. He leans on the countertop and grabs the cup out of my hand downing it all in one shot. I smile nervously in response.
"Hey Man, didn't know you were coming tonight"
"Well you know me, always the life of the party" he says with an evil smile that reminds me of the kind you see on those evil villains with capes and waxed mustaches "Anyway, some of the rooms upstairs are locked. Wondering where I can find the key."
"Um.." I'm not sure how to respond considering Kol's only rule for throwing a party at his house was no going into bedrooms (except Rebekah's). "There's not really much up there"
"Did I ask what's up there?" He says in a tone that makes me think any answer will be wrong.
"Uh, why do you want the key?" I ask.
"Trying to win back some favor with Damon. I heard there's a New Mikaelson that he's not particularly fond of" he explains.
"Oh" is all I say, still not sure what to do. Before I can say anything else Enzo continues.
"Might I add, asking you was really only a formality. I could always just break the door down, along with a few other things"
I sigh in defeat, "Here" I say pulling the key out of my pocket and handing it to him. "Just be careful"
"Of course" and with that he's gone.
I exhale a breath I hadn't realized I'd been holding in. The room is mostly empty now except for me and a girl I instantly recognize.
"Hey Nadia" I greet.
She turns to look at me when she hears her name and gives me a smile that reminds me a little of her mothers. "Hi Jeremy, nice party"
"Thanks" I repond adding, "Having a good time?"
"For the most part. I've been texting Matt but he hasn't responded" she says holding up her phone, "I'm starting to worry"
"I haven't heard from Elena or Kol either, it's probably nothing" I admit, "Although, Rebekah is on that trip. She could kill Matt since he's her ex now, bury him in the woods and we'd never hear from him again"
We both laugh at this and Nadia replies, "I wouldn't put it past her, these Mikaelson's are crazy"
"There not all bad, Kol's pretty cool" I argue.
"Didn't he try to kill you the other day?" She questions.
"We had a slight disagreement, but if I cut off everyone who ever tried to kill me I'd be pretty lonely"
"Right, well he did let you throw this party. It's going pretty well so far" she notes. As if on cue it's at this moment I hear the scream.
"WHAT'S GOING ON HERE!"
"I have to go" I apologize rushing through the crowd to the front door where Mikael stands looking about ready to murder anyone and everyone.
"You!" He says his glare falling on me "What is going on" he growls.
I do my best to remain calm and remember what Kol told me to do in a situation like this. "Hello Mr. Mikaelson, this... This is a party"
"I can see that!" He shouts back, "Why is there a party going on in MY HOUSE" the music has stopped and everyone is completely silent, not even a trace of whispering.
'Just do what Kol said', I remind myself before nervously responding, "Klaus said we could have a party here"
"Niklaus" he spits out with complete hatred, "Where is he?"
"Salvatore house" I say without thinking.
"By the time I'm back you're all gone or I kill each and every one of you" he decides and without another glance he's out the door.
A deafening silence fills the room, but within another few seconds the music is back on and people are carrying on there conversations. Obviously they didn't take Mikael's threat too seriously, now I'm going to have to figure out how to get everyone to leave.
I'm brought out of my thoughts by my phone buzzing in my pocket. I pull it out uneasily and look down surprised by who it is. Tyler.
"Jeremy?"
"Hey Ty, what's up?" I repond, feeling guilty for not inviting him tonight. Caroline had placed an official shun on him for breaking up with her and I rather not cross Caroline Forbes when she's angry.
He ignores my pleasentries, "I can't get a hold of anyone, have you heard from Care or Elena?"
"No there on that trip" I reply.
He sighs in frustration, "Look Jer you have to get here now. I'm at the hospital.. It's bad. Nobody's picking up my calls but.. It's bad"
"Tyler what's wrong?" I ask starting to freak out.
"Alright, here's what happened..."
Elena
"What type of circle is that?" Klaus questions staring very critically at the easel. I can't help but laugh as he acts as if my simple circle is an utter disgrace.
"The type that literally everyone draws." I finally say once I catch a hold of myself.
"No. No. No. No. No. No." He mummers as he takes the brush and draws a giant 'X' over my circle.
"Hey! I was going to turn that into a snowman!" I complain jokingly.
"Promise me that you will never paint something so horrible again." He says as he turns to a blank Canvas.
I nod, trying to keep my expression very serious but obviously failing.
"Come on. I want to see another circle. One that doesn't make me regret being alive." He says handing me the brush. I'm about to touch it to the easel when he grabs my hand, causing me to stop.
"You're too rough. The brush isn't just another object. Think of it as an extension of your arm." He explains, leading my hand gently towards the easel. I follow along as he guides me until the light blue streaks form a circle that looks exactly like the one I painted before, yet seems to make Klaus more content.
"Perfect. Although the lines could be a bit more symmetrical." He comments as I turn to face him.
"Its a circle!" I argue.
"I'm joking. I do that sometimes." He says breaking into a grin. I smile in response as I put the brush down.
I look at the few paintings that lay around. Some are unfinished or maybe they were meant to be that way.
"Why do you like painting so much?" I question as I admire one of the many drawings.
"Its a metaphor for control, an outlet for my anger. Calms me down. Helps me express myself." He says after a moment.
"I don't know. You seemed pretty stressed out over that circle. I think you have it all wrong and painting is what makes you so angry." I decide with a taunting smile.
"Getting angry only tends to happen when you're the one wielding the brush." He says matter of factely.
"I'm a beginner okay!" I say defensively causing him to chuckle.
"Well, at least you're not as bad as-" He starts but cuts himself off quickly. I look at him expectantly, but rather than finishing his sentence he picks up the brush and begins to put away the paint.
"As bad as who?" I question although I have a pretty good idea of who this mystery person is.
"Forget it. Hand me that." He say motioning towards the cup of paint splattered water. I grab it halfheartedly and walk over to him while wondering what exactly happened between him and Caroline besides the obvious.
"Elena watch-" He yells, but is cut off as I trip over some supplies causing the water to go flying all over Klaus.
My hand flies to my mouth in shock, and I'm not sure what to say. Luckily I don't have to say anything because Klaus returns the favor, throwing a cup of nearby bright blue paint all over me. Im too surprised to do anything and we both stand in silent for a moment as the paint falls down my face.
"You have a little something right there." Klaus finally says with a smile as he gestures to my face.
"I'm going to kill you!" I yell, my threat not really being taken seriously as Klaus laughs. "I am so serious right now!" I claim.
He continues to laugh seemingly finding this situation hilarious, until I grab a cup of Red paint and splash it in his face.
He stops laughing, and wipes the paint off his face with his hand before saying, "Oh, you're going to get it now!"
We both grab for whatever we can get our hands on and begin flinging paint at each other, laughing like maniacs while doing so.
At least until we hear the knock on the door.
Caroline
"Whats wrong?" Damon questions opening the door with me close behind.
Kol stands outside with Elijah and Bonnie. I notice that Kol has his hand wrapped tightly around Bonnie's wrist holing her in place, but my attention immediately goes to Elijah.
"Elijah. You look really nice today." I suddenly decide, pushing past Damon and walking over to him. I lay a hand on his shoulder and flash him a smile.
"Um.. Thank You Caroline." Elijah says, shooting a look towards Kol that I chose to ignore.
"Caroline?" Damon questions which I also chose to ignore. I focus all my attention on Elijah, and I suddenly can't help but think how mesmerizing his eyes are and how the whole suit thing is really hot.
I only take my eyes off him when Kol knocks loudly on the door that I recognize as the entrance to Klaus' room.
Within a few seconds the door opens to reveal Klaus standing there covered in multiple colors of...paint? He wears a smile that would normally spark something in me but does nothing at all right now. The only thoughts that cross through my mind are on Elijah. I watch as Klaus' eyes land on the two of us specifically on how close I'm standing and it doesn't make me want to back away like it normally would. I feel like there's something wrong, but couldn't care less. Not even as Elena comes out of the room with a towel that does nothing to remove all the paint she's covered it.
"Whats going on?" Klaus inquires, his eyes finally landing on Kol.
"That's exactly what I'm wondering" Damon comments his eyes studying Elena and Klaus with suspicion.
Klaus rolls his eyes at this and looks at Kol expectantly.
"Alright there was an incident." Kol says slowly, before adding, "Stop!" directed towards Bonnie who is trying to escape his grasps.
"What type of incident?" Damon questions his eyes still studying Elena who seems to be focused on Elijah. This bothers me.
"The kind that is going to anger about 50% of you." Kol decides.
"Oh really? And what about the other 50%?" Klaus asks seemingly amused at this.
"There going to be too busy fawning over Elijah for the next 24 hours." Kol explains causing Klaus and Damon to look even more confused.
"Bonnie by accidentally, that we know of, did a spell that causes pretty much all the girls that come in contact with Elijah to fall madly in love with him. So pretty much this is great for Elijah and horrible for the rest of us."
"I can assure you, I do not find this enjoyable" Elijah argues brushing away Elena when she tries to grab his hand. I narrow my eyes at her wondering why she always has to be so greedy.
"Alright well, how do you fix this?" Damon questions grabbing Elena and pulling her closer to him when she begins to complement Elijah on how cute his eyes are. I roll my eyes at her antics.
"I don't know what you guys are talking about, everything's fine! By the way Elijah, do you work out? 'Cause you look like you do" I note grabbing his arm and pushing Elena away in the process. I notice Klaus glare at the two of us but I ignore him as usual.
It's at this moment that Rebekah bursts out of her room shouting, "Oh my god you all will never believe what happens on the season 6 finale of Supernatural because let me tell you... Hi Elijah!"
"Oh no" Elijah mutters as his evil sister pushes past us all and pulls him into a hug. "Did I mention you look really good today? and everyday! Will you marry me? Your like the most amazing guy ever, I know I've met a lot! And your also my favorite brother, and your so cute! and I just love you sooo much!"
I glare at Rebekah while Elijah pats her on the back and tries to push her away from him. "Yes sister, perhaphs you should go back to your room and-"
"Yah, back off Rebekah!" Elena breaks in. I instantly decide I can not let her win.
"Oh please Satan, I think it's you who needs to back off. You already have Stefan and Damon and apparently Klaus, you can't have Elijah too!" I argue
Elena rolls her eyes, "I could say the same to you, Caroline" she replies spitefully.
"You're both right, which is why I should get Elijah" Bonnie reasons.
"No he's mine!" Rebekah argues.
"Anyone seen Matt?" We all turn to see Katherine walk upstairs looking down at her phone.
"Great more greedy doplegangers" I mutter.
Drew
I sigh to fill the silence of the big, empty, freezing cold bus which I sit in, completely alone. Why? Not sure. For some reason I felt like I had to leave the others and come here. And now, I felt like I couldn't leave.
I look out the bus window at the empty road. Not one car has passed by in what must have been hours. I was completely surrounded by woods and all I could think was why on Earth did I come here? On this bus, this trip?
I didn't know, but too restless to continue sitting down, I shoot out of my seat. I walk along the aisle of the bus and notice that everybody left there bags. I walk over to one in particular, a black duffle bag with different designs around it. I look around, as if anyone had actually found me, and after being sure the coast is clear I walk over to the bag and open it, searching through the materials. The first thing that pops out to me is a small leather book.
"ELENA'S DIARY" the cover reads. Hmmm, this could be interesting.
I sit down in the seat and throw the bag on the floor, resting my feet on top of it. "Dear Diary, today something amazing happened..."
Katherine
"Anyone seen Matt?" I ask. I put my phone away and look up to see all the guys staring at me expectantly. I notice Elena practically in Elijah's arms and roll my eyes. So she's claimed another victim.
"Katherine" Damon says still looking at me as if waiting for something.
"Yes, that is my name" I respond simply.
"How does Elijah look today?" Kol asks me nodding to his brother who is trying to push Rebekah away from him in a non rude manner.
"On a scale of one to ten? Stupid and in a suit" I respond.
At this Damon sighs and narrows his eyes at Kol, "Was this some stupid prank you got the girls in on?" he asks leaving me confused.
"Either that or Katherine just can't be considered a girl" Klaus mumbles.
"Is anyone going to tell me what's going on?" I ask.
"Well it's not a prank so is there anything you want to tell us Katernia?" Kol says, ignoring my question.
"Damon?" I say, knowing at the moment he's the one who's most likely to answer with the least amount of sarcasm.
"According to Kol, Bonnie accidentally cast some spell that makes every girl Elijah comes into contact with fall in love/lust with him" he explains.
At this I begin to laugh while I wait for the real explanation, until I realize just how close Elena is standing and how Caroline, Bonnie, and Rebekah can't take their eyes off him. This makes me laugh even more.
"Wow. That's funny. But you see I'm a girl and I am not whatsoever in love with Elijah, so obviously Bon Bon isn't as good of a witch as we thought she was. " I comment, looking over at Elijah and feeling no change at all. Still the same resentment as always.
"Or perhaps there's another reason." Elijah decides paying little mind to the girls fawning over him and focusing all of his attention on me.
"Like what?" I question annoyed that, as usual, he acts like he knows everything.
"Like maybe it doesn't work on people that are already in love with Elijah." Klaus intercepts with a smirk.
"I think the paint fumes are getting to your head, because I'm not in love with Elijah. Never was." I explain simply. I tell myself that this is true but I can't help but think that it may just be another one of the lies I've drilled into my head.
"Maybe she just hates Elijah so much that it's impossible for her to even think of loving him." Damon suggests, reminding me why he's my best friend.
"You know that may be it. I mean the hatred is pretty strong." I say with a smile.
"Shut up Katherine! You must be an idiot to hate someone so perfect!" Caroline yell jumping to Elijah's defense. I roll my eyes.
"This coming from the girl who once asked me if Hitler was the one who kill Martin Luther King Jr. " I fire back.
"Katerina, please." Elijah says with a sigh. Caroline lights up at the fact that he defends her and I roll my eyes again.
"Katerina Please! " I respond in a mocking tone, before turning to Kol.
"Good luck fixing this. I give it an hour before they start gashing each others eyes out to prove their love to Elijah Ta ta!" I say before heading to my room.
As I throw Damon's suitcase to the floor and lie down I can't help but think its going to be a long day.
Bonnie
"Elijah why are you so good looking? I think it's unfair to poor not as good looking people, like Klaus" Caroline says practically throwing herself at Elijah. How pathetic.
"Elijah was just blessed with good looks Caroline, unlike some people, for example Kol" I say trying to wiggle out of his grasps. He only holds on to me tighter and I glare at him in response.
"Don't listen to them Elijah, I think your way more better looking then they think you are! Why won't you love me!" Rebekah whines. How desperate.
"Rebekah please, your my sister" Elijah points out, detaching himself from her yet again. Surprisingly it's Damon that helps him, but not surprisingly the situation takes a very Damon turn.
"Don't listen to him Beks, he's just playing hard to get" Damon says before pushing her back at Elijah, causing him to glare at Damon.
I narrow my eyes at Damon, "Oh my god Damon! Stop being so annoying you're just jealous of Elijah!" I point out.
He chuckles as if this is funny, "Oh please, what does Elijah have that I should be jealous of"
"Elijah's perfect and you're well, not" Caroline jumps in.
"Ouch Blondie, that hurts" he replies with an eye roll.
"Well the truth can be painful" she fires back.
"And pain demands to be felt" he replies nodding. Caroline looks on the verge of smiling before shaking her head and turning back to Elijah.
"That was't funny Damon! Elijah's the only funny person here!" She argues.
"Oh yes Elijah's just a suit full of fun and jokes" Kol responds sarcastically.
I turn to him with a glare, "Shut up Kol! I don't care how cute you are, Elijah's cuter!" I step in.
"Wait a second, did you just call me cute?" He asks with a smirk playing on his lips.
Did I call him cute? No, I don't think so. Elijah's the only cute one here.
"Shut up!" I respond simply ignoring his next comment and turning back to Elijah. He along with Damon are holding back Caroline who is attempting to attack Klaus.
"TAKE IT BACK!" she shouts kicking as she tries to escape Elijah's grasp. She must be crazy to run away from Elijah.
"Sorry luv, I don't think I will" Klaus replies smugly.
"Wait, what did Klaus say about Elijah?" I inquire glaring up at the hybrid.
"Klaus said that he's better looking then Elijah" Caroline seethes.
I gasp in shock, "Oh my god you jerk! Im going to kill you!"
"I'll help!" Elena says nodding. Before she can take a step forward Damon grabs her by the waist and pulls her away from Klaus, and of course Kol still has me captive.
"Oh! If Niklaus murders them all in self defense do I win Elijah by default?" Rebekah asks hopefully.
"No, definitely not!" I argue, the urge to kill Klaus lessening at this horrible thought.
This doesn't stop Caroline though, she manages to escape Elijah's grasp and makes a move to attack Klaus. Of course, Klaus is prepared and instantly moves out of her way, grabbing her and pinning her back to the wall. He grabs both her arms and holds them back and chuckles as she continues her escape attempts.
"Calm down luv" he suggests.
Caroline looks him up and down and stops fighting. The two meet each others gaze and I notice they both start leaning in. Meer seconds before Klaus' lips touch hers Caroline steps on his foot violently and kicks him in the leg before pushing him away. I laugh at this and Caroline smiles victoriously.
"That's what you get for insulting my man!" she decides glaring at Klaus who stands up looking about ready to kill someone.
"Hey Elijah's mine!" Elena argues.
"No he's mine!" Rebekah insists.
"I'm okay as long as he's not Bonnie's" Kol says and I glare at him furiously.
"Too bad, because Elijah is mine! I'd do anything for him" I say looking at Elijah dreamily.
Just then Elijah's face lights up as if he's had an idea. "Bonnie's right" he announces, "I am hers, which is why I need you to do something for me Bonnie"
I can't believe my luck as I finally manage to escape Kol and run into Elijah's arms. I notice Care and Elena look devastated, while Kol looks a mixture of Angry and confused, and Rebekah looks ready to murder me. I'm not scared though, Elijah will protect me.
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll do anything for you Elijah!" I assure him.
"Excellent, So is it possible you can reverse this spell so these other girls leave me alone and we can be together forever?" he says.
I smile eagerly, "Why didn't you just say so?" I say. I already know the spell he's talking about and I saw the reversal spell in the book. I easily recite it by memory, and then all of the sudden something crazy happens and everything goes black.
Mikael
"I'm going to kill him"
The thought runs through my head for the millionth time this night, the infinite time in my life. As I park in the Salvatore's driveway and exit my car, the door almost falls off it's hinges with how hard I slam it shut. I march over to the door and heavily pound my fist against the expensive wood.
"Niklaus, come out you coward!" I demand.
There is silence for about a moment before the door bursts open to reveal a blonde girl. I don't recognize her from the group of people, (I refrain from saying friends because Niklaus doesn't have any), my children usually spend their time with. I narrow my eyes at her, considering she was in the same house Niklaus is supposedly in she is officially deemed a threat.
"Can I help you?" she asks in a displeased tone.
"Who are you?" I question.
"Lexi" she answers simply, "Who are you?"
"Mikael" I spit out, my anger not having subsided, "Where's Niklaus?"
"Niklaus?" she questions.
"Yes! Niklaus, Klaus, whatever you choose to call that disgrace" I elaborate growing impatient.
"Your going to have to be more specific then that. Niklaus..." she says obviously waiting for further answer. I glare at her heavily as she leans against the door frame as if getting comfortable.
"Mikaelson" I seethe.
"Oh! That Klaus. Nope, haven't seen him, and I'm pretty sure he's not here" she says before adding, "Have you seen Stefan?"
"Stefan?" I question. I know who she's talking about but the fact that Niklaus isn't here and her attitude about this situation is making me angry and annoyed, "Stefan who?"
"How many Stefan's do you know?" she replies with an eye roll.
"How many Niklaus' do you know!?" I fire back.
"Eight" she responds smugly with a shrug.
I groan in annoyance, "No, I do not know where Stefan is"
"Then your useless" she notes, pushing past me to exit the house. I am too shocked by her disrespect to say anything.
"Where's the Mystic Falls gang when you need them" I hear her mutter before hopping into the red Porsche parked next to my car. "Let me know if you see Stefan" she decides before speeding away in an instant. I glare at the fleeting figure of her car as one more thought passes through my mind.
"I'm gonna kill Niklaus"
Klaus
"Oh my god get off me!" Bonnie shouts, pushing Elijah away from her. Her and the other girls appeared to black out for a few seconds after Bonnie completed her spell.
"Alright luv?" I ask Caroline who I was kneeling down next to. I extend a hand to help her up and she accepts it but glares at me.
"I'm fine, not that you should care" she responds and I shake my head wondering how for even a second she could think I didn't care about her.
"What happened to us?" Elena asks as Damon helps her up.
"Bonnie's spell made you all fall in love with Elijah" Damon explains.
"This was not my fault!" Bonnie argues.
"Wait, let me guess" I start with a smirk
"Kol's fault" we all chorus, minus Elena and Caroline who look at their friend sympathetically.
"I hate you all" Bonnie mutters before walking into one of the bedrooms and slamming the door closed. A piercing silence falls over the room as everyone seems to be contemplating what to say or do next.
I finally speak up, turning to Elena and saying, "If you would like to shower, I can point you over to the bathroom."
Elena looks down at her paint covered body and laughs lightly before responding, "Um..sure."
I grab her hand and lead her through the house quickly, pushing past the door that leads to the master bedroom which I've taken residence during most of our visits which had seemed to stop over the years. I cross the room and open the door that leads to the better one of the two bathrooms in the cabin.
"Right through here." I explain pointing her over. She smiles back at me before walking into the bathroom.
"Wow, you Mikealsons even have a luxurious bathroom" She comments jokingly taking in the room. I chuckle at this comment, and walk over to a nearby closet pulling a spare towel out and handing it to her.
"Thanks." She says graciously accepting it.
"Alright, I'll leave you to it then. I'll find some clothes for you in the meantime." I say as I exit the bathroom. As I close the door behind me, I'm startled to see Caroline sitting on the bed.
I look towards the bathroom door, before walking over to her and raising an eyebrow.
"Can we talk?" She says after a minute not meeting my eyes but rather staring solely on the painting that hangs near a large dresser in the corner of the room.
"What's there to talk about?" I ask calmly. As I inquire this, millions of things that the two of us should discuss brush through my mind. I turn my back to her as I go through the drawers of the dressers searching for a shirt.
"Are you really going to make me say it?" She questions pausing at the sound of water running.
"Caroline. There is nothing to talk about. Now I would appreciate it if you let me be." I snap turning to face her. She returns my glare with fire in her eyes.
"No. Not until you tell me what you're doing with Elena. I know you. This is all just some huge plot that's going to end with her hurt." She finally says getting up and crossing the room till there is only a few inches separating us.
"I'm simply teaching Elena to paint. Nothing more." I smirk before adding, "Well at least for now."
She rolls her eyes and sighs, her hands tightning into fist in frustration.
"I swear Klaus you hurt her, and I will hurt you." She says her voice cold as ice. It reminds me of the main reason I fell in love with her to begin with. She refused to back down, despite the obvious strength I held over her.
"Oh really. Now I'm scared." I respond sarcastically, laughing lightly as I do so.
"I'm serious!" she yells shoving me with as much force as she can muster. I barely move an inch despite all her effort just proving how much stronger I am. Yet being persistent as she is, she tries again. This time I grab her wrist and throw her onto the bed.
"Caroline I highly suggest you leave now." I state threateningly.
She looks up at me her eyes wide and the look of disgust on her face hurts me much more than even a stake to the heart could.
"Or what? You'll kill me." She questions not daring to break eye contact. Her voice is almost taunting as if challenging me to try.
Before I can respond, the bathroom door opens and Elena steps out, a towel wrapped tightly around her. She quickly notices the situation and looks between me and Caroline.
"Am I interupting something here?" she asks, worry seeping into her voice.
"Lucky for you we just finished. He's all yours." Caroline declares, an obviously fake smile plastered on her face. She gets up and pushes past me exiting the room and slamming the door closed behind her. Elena looks at me seemingly very confused.
"I'm going to go get you those clothes." I say before heading out the room.
Caroline Forbes is going to be the death of me.
Damon
I flip through the pages of one of the spell books that was tossed aside. Most of the spells mean nothing at all to me, but considering the spell Bonnie was just able to cast, some could be interesting.
Just then the door bursts open and Caroline storms in slamming it shut behind her before quickly crossing the room and sitting next to me.
"Agh!" She yells, burying her face in a nearby pillow.
"What happened?" I question. The last I had seen of her was about 15 minutes ago when she declared she was going to go talk to Klaus.
"I hate him Damon! I hate him so much!" She shouts looking up. I now see the tears that fill her eyes.
I sigh and pull her closer gently saying, "Do you want to talk about it?".
"Not really." She mutters looking down again.
"Whatever Klaus said, it doesn't matter Caroline. He's an idiot." I assure her.
"Aren't you worried about him and Elena?" She questions finally meeting my eyes.
"I already spoke to Elena about it, and she seems to think that it's better to have Klaus as a friend than as an enemy. She believes that he isn't as horrible as everyone thinks." I explain recalling this conversation. She sighs shaking her head at this.
"Do you want me to talk to Klaus?" I ask after a minute of silence.
"No. That's only going to make things worst." She quickly responds looking at me like I'm crazy for even suggesting this.
"Are you sure?" I inquire figuring that it wouldn't be the worst idea for me to make it clear to Klaus that Elena will be his friend and nothing more.
Before she can respond a voice that can only be Bonnie Bennet radiates through the room.
"Oh My God Kol! Look what you did!"
