~ I focused more on this chapter than I did for chapter 37 for my story Changes Within. I probably won't get that chapter up until after the finale... but we'll see.

~ Thank you to all that reviewed on the last chapter (: I hope we can try to keep getting a good amount of reviews on each chapter (: Hopefully they can be a little more helpful when it comes to what was in the chapter and what I could put into future chapters. Those reviews give me more inspiration for writing the chapters for this story.

~ There is some Klaus/Luna interaction along with Damon/Luna and some possible Stefan/Luna. I hope you like it (:

BloodMoonWanes: I would have put more, but I didn't have much inspiration to write the last chapter. I didn't really have any idea because all the chapters after Homecoming are not planned and I hoped that the readers would leave their ideas in the reviews.

SemiraBlake: I realized after reading your review... that Kluna might also be the couple name for the possible Kol/Luna in season 4... if I get there or not. Although that is something that I'm going to deal with when the time comes (: lol I love writing for Kluna because she doesn't want to give into Klaus... despite them both being hybrids

SexieJacinta: I would have updated sooner than this has been posted, there weren't really many helpful reviews on the last chapter. This story is mainly Luna/Klaus centered so what happens between Matt and Rebecca in the show will happen in the story. I won't be writing for them unless Luna is listening in or helping Rebecca get with him... it all depends on future chapters.

Anna.B: It wasn't really one of my favorites either, mainly because I know I could have done better. I wanted Luna to have a good friendship with Damon... which may get rocky as the story goes on. I originally came up with Luna as a character in a different story where she would be Tyler's sister... but I ended up writing this first.. lol I'm sort of glad I did. She is only a 'force for the good side' when she's not pissed off or angry. I like your idea where Klaus comes to her rescue after she gets stabbed/staked... but with what I wanted to put in this chapter... maybe not by Tyler. I'm not going to say who and I wasn't originally going to have a fight in it, but your idea made me want to... lol Maybe Klaus could say those things to Luna. I sort of want them to have a genuine moment before the ball because of your review (: When it comes with Kol... it will start off where they are drinking buddies with possible harmless flirting here and there, which would make Klaus jealous. With what I want to to with Season 4, Kol will sort of genuinely care for Luna... but it's sort of hard to say without spoiling how I want to end Season 3. I'm trying to think of a way to have Luna share dances with Kol and Klaus... and I don't know who else, if I have her dance with anyone else. Luna definitely is going to be stubborn when it comes to her possible feelings for Klaus... and I know there will be moments of weakness. We will have to see where they go (: Your review made me want to work on this chapter more because it was the most helpful one (like they are for Changes Within) (:

RosesMoon: Well, Rebecca is her friend... so she would be upset/angry about it. I actually didn't think about Luna talking about her mom's compulsion. Maybe in the next chapter... idk, it all depends on how it turns out when I write it. As for the kiss... that was another thing that I really haven't planned yet. I have it planned where they share dances. All can really say without spoiling the story is that by the end of season 3... you will know how Luna really feels about him... which hopefully I can continue into season 4.. because I have some good (in my mind) stuff planned (:

~ The beginning is a little choppy, but hopefully you won't mind.

ENJOY!

Luna's POV

When I woke up, I felt good. It was strange with what has been happening, but I decided to go with it. I slid out of my bed and looked in the closet before quickly picking out a red tank top and a pair of jeans. I tossed them onto the bed before going into the bathroom to take a shower.

I walked to the Grill, enjoying the nice weather. The sun was shining, there was a gentle breeze, it was just like a normal day. I was going to pretend it was a normal day, before I became a hybrid. A couple of times I stopped to take a deep breath, just to take in the sun and the fresh air.

When I got to the Grill, I ordered the biggest burger on the menu. It was also one of the greasiest ones, but it made me feel normal.
"Here's your refill." Matt said as he brought me a filled cup of soda.
"Thanks." I said before taking a big bite into my burger. As I chewed it, Klaus slid into the other side of the booth. "Are you stalking me now?" I asked after I swallowed.
"Or is it you stalking me?" He asked and I just rolled my eyes. I noticed that he was reaching for one of my fries, but I slapped his hand away. "Did you know that my sister was laying daggered in the basement of the Salvatores?" He asked after a few moments, which made me surprised. 'So that's what Damon was hiding' I thought.
"I would have undaggered her if she was." I honestly said to him. "She's my friend." He reached for one of my fries and I slapped his hand away again. "Get your own food. Don't take mine."
"I was wondering if you might accompany me." He said as I took dipped a few fries into the ketchup on my plate. "There is a fundraiser tonight and I'm in need of a date." I held the urge to roll my eyes.
"You want me to be your date?" I asked, trying not to be too rude. I shook my head and looked down at my food. There was a part of me that wanted to go on a date with him... but I couldn't ignore the pain he has caused me. "Can I get a box?" I asked the waitress who was passing by. She nodded her head and walked back towards the bar. 'I'll just eat the rest later' I thought before taking a sip from my soda while hoping Klaus would just go away. "Why?" I asked Klaus, which made him look at me with some confusion.
"Why what love?"
"Why ask me to be your date?"
"Because I fancy you." I swear that my heart stopped beating for a minute when he gave a small smile. I took a deep breath and tried to control my heartbeat.
"After everything you've done?" I asked, trying to be distant. His smile dropped.
"I gave you your mother."
"And that's supposed to make up for everything?" I asked just as the waitress came back with a box for my food. I gave her a nod before I started to put my food in it. After I got all the food in the box, I put some money on the table to pay for the meal. "Thanks for giving me my mom." I said before I got up with my food and walked away from him.

When I got outside, I leaned against the outside of the Grill. I closed my eyes and let out a sigh. 'I can't like him' I thought. 'Not after everything' It made sense to me that I would feel a connection to him because of us both being hybrids, but I didn't want to have those feelings about him. I opened my eyes and adjusted to the sun in my eyes before walking away from the Grill.

When I got to the boarding house, I ate the rest of my food. I didn't want anyone else to eat it, so I practically ate as fast as I could. After I was done, I ended up walking into Damon's room. I started to read one of the books that was sitting on the floor near his bed. If he didn't like it, he couldn't really stop me. The shopping I did my first day in Mystic Falls was mainly for clothes, makeup and other things... not really for books. I could have used the laptop Rebecca got me to read something online, but I preferred reading from a book that was in my hands.
"What are you doing on my bed?" Damon asked as he stepped into his room.
"Reading." I said without looking away from the book. "I don't have any books of my own anymore and I didn't want to buy a book." Damon stepped up to me and took the book from my hand. "Hey. You could have waited until I finished the chapter."
"I don't like it when people read my books."
"Then don't leave them out in the open." I said before taking the book back from him.
"We do have a library downstairs." He said as I continued to read from where I left off.
"I know."
"Why aren't you reading in there?" I shrugged.
"Didn't feel like it."
"Well, when you finish MY book, I want to take you somewhere."
"You mean like a date?" I asked with a smirk. "What will Elena say?"
"Not a date. I don't want you alone in my house."
"Thanks for the trust." I sarcastically said to him. "As long as I don't run into Klaus again, I'll be fine." Damon didn't say anything as he walked into his bathroom. I had a feeling that Damon was going to take me to the fundraiser that Klaus had asked me to go to. I just hoped that I wouldn't run into him there.

I read as much as the book as I could before Damon basically dragged me out of the house. He picked up Alaric before we actually got to the fundraiser. I hoped that I wouldn't bump into Klaus, even though I knew that I would.
"I thought Stefan saved your life." Alaric said as we walked closer to the building.
"He did." Damon said.
"And now he is willing to risk it just to see how far he can push Klaus?" I curiously asked.
"It seems so." Damon said to me.
"So is his humanity on or off?" Alaric asked him.
"I think there is another option at play, a dimmer switch, which is a huge problem."
"Why?" Alaric asked Damon.
"Because I can't predict how far he is willing to go until someone gets killed."
"So, suddenly you care who lives or dies?"
"I have a small list." Damon said.
"Talk about a humanity dimmer switch."
"Screw you!" Damon said to Alaric, which made me chuckle a little.
"Can't a Council meeting ever just be a Council meeting?"
"You didn't have to come along." I said to Alaric.
"Neither did you." Alaric said to me. I glanced at him through the corner of my eye.
"I couldn't stay inside all day." I said, not mentioning that I didn't think that Damon trusted me enough to let me stay inside the rest of the day. I would rather deal with that than always be reminded of Klaus.

I was able to find myself a drink. Damon wanted to talk with Alaric and I didn't mind. I wanted some time to myself, even if my mind might wander to Klaus. I wanted to have one normal day where I didn't bump into him, but I had a feeling that it wouldn't happen. 'Maybe I should leave' I thought to myself. 'I could start over somewhere' I thought before I noticed Damon step up to me.
"So I have two stalkers now?" I asked him.
"I can't resist a pretty face." Damon said with a small smirk.
"Well, that's a step up from before." I said as I took a sip from my drink. I was about to say something else, but I heard a voice. "Oh, no." I said out loud when I saw Klaus. He was talking to someone and I knew Damon had seen him.

I noticed Damon started to walk towards Klaus and I decided to follow, just because I could.
"Look at what the cat dragged in." Damon said, which made Klaus looked at us. "Nice vest."
"Thank you very much, good to see you, Damon." Klaus said before looking at me. "Somehow I'd knew you'd come." He said before looking back at Damon. I just ignored him and took a sip from my glass. "Carol and I were discussing about whether you would be the other big benefactor."
"What do you say Damon?" Carol asked Damon. "Klaus has made a very generous pledge. You know how we're chomping at the bit to begin the renovation."
"Carol, don't take this the wrong way, but do you realize that you've been kissing the ass of an immortal hybrid who ruined your son's life?" 'So she's Tyler's mom' I thought before Klaus spoke.
"Oh, come now. Some would say that I saved him from all that nasty full moon business." I couldn't help but momentarily think back to all the times that I had to turn. I had to go through turning about 18 times. It was the most painful experiences I ever had. When I started to think about it, I couldn't help but think I never had to turn again, if I didn't want to. 'Because of him' I thought as my eyes went to Klaus before he started to speak again. "I've never had to go through it myself more than twice, to be honest, but still, I'm very sympathetic." Even though Klaus was saying it to Carol, he had glanced at me. I tried to keep a plain expression while I internally smiled a little.
"Klaus has promised to protect Tyler, Damon. And our town." Carol said, which brought me out of my thoughts.
"From who? His hybrids are the one the town needs protection from."
"Well, I'd have no use for them if your brother would kindly return my family." I felt a little anger bubble up when Klaus basically said that he was 'using' the hybrids.
"Not gonna happen." Damon said to Klaus and Klaus looked at me for a second before he looked back at Damon.
"That's what I thought, which is why I've come to an agreement with the Mayor." Klaus glanced towards Carol. "You and the Council stay out of my hair, I stay out of yours. Your town gets protected, my hybrids get left alone and everybody will be happy. All you have to do is to get Stefan to stop decapitating my friends." I couldn't help but look at Damon. 'Stefan's been killing hybrids?' I couldn't help but ask myself. There was a moment when I wondered why Damon didn't tell me, but I knew he didn't really trust me enough to tell me.
"Please Damon, just get your brother under control, or the Council will be forced to take action against him." Carol said to Klaus.
"You've gotta be kidding me!" Damon said as I drank the rest of my glass.
"Oh come on mate, give peace a chance." Klaus said and I fought the urge to roll my eyes.
"Is there a bathroom here?" I asked Carol and she gave a small nod.
"Upstairs." She said and I gave her a small smile.
"Thanks." I said before walking away. I could feel Klaus's eyes on me, but I didn't turn to face him.

After I was done in the bathroom, I just took a deep breath and looked at myself in the mirror. I liked in Mystic Falls and if it wasn't for Klaus, I would want to stay. 'Maybe I can just avoid him' I thought, even though I knew it probably wouldn't work. 'You'll get through it' I thought to myself before I walked out of the bathroom.

I was about to turn towards the stairs before I was stabbed in my side. I looked at my side before looking up and I saw Stefan. He pulled the knife from my side and was about to stab me again before I broke his wrist. It didn't seem to take any effect because he was able to quickly snap my neck.

I slowly started to open my eyes and remembered what happened. My hand went to where Stefan stabbed me, but it was already healed. I felt my neck and my mind flashed back to when Klaus snapped my neck. 'I should be okay' I thought to myself before slowly getting up. There was no one around, but I could still hear people downstairs. I looked down at where Stefan stabbed me and even though I was wearing a red tank top, you could still see the blood stain. 'Stefan is going to get some revenge from me' I thought before moving the sides of my jacket to the middle to try and cover up the stain.

I looked around and let out a sigh before walking down the stairs.
"Luna." I looked behind me and saw Klaus. "I was looking for you." He took my by surprise.
"I was just leaving." I said before I started to walk out the door.
"What happened?" He asked as he followed me out.
"Nothing." I said before he stopped me. Klaus slowly moved my jacket and looked at the stain on my tank top.
"That doesn't look like nothing love."
"I'm fine." I said as I moved my jacket back over the stain. "I can take care of myself." I started to walk away again, but Tyler came up to us.
"You need to heal Caroline." He said to Klaus, which made me stop.
"I don't see why I should mate." Klaus said with some evilness in his voice. "You were the one to bite her."
"You bit Caroline?" I asked Tyler with some surprise.
"It was an accident." He said to me with some panic in her voice. "Please, help her." Tyler said when he turned back to Klaus.
"You're the only one that can heal her." I said to Klaus, not wanting Caroline to die. He looked from Tyler to me. I barely knew Caroline, but I didn't want her to die. When Klaus didn't say anything, I walked away. I wasn't going to try and convince him to heal her when I didn't think he would.

After I got to the boarding house, I decided to take a shower to get rid of the feeling of dried blood. I put a pair of white sweatpants on and a light green Tshirt before laying on my bed. My revenge against Stefan could wait until morning, especially since I was tired and hoping that Caroline was okay. Images of Klaus flashed in my head the more tired I got. I tried to think of him less as I slowly drifted off to sleep.

~ There was a Kluna scene that I wanted to put into this chapter, but I might be able to put it in the next one instead... depending on what you guys would like to see. I think either way, I might put it in because it will be referenced in 'Dangerous Liaisons'.
~ There will also be more Stefan/Luna scenes... hopefully one in the next chapter.

~ Although I appreciate the amount of reviews on the last chapter compared to the Homecoming chapter, I would like it if you could maybe leave some reviews on what I could do with the events of the chapters concerning Luna. I have no ideas so your ideas would help and help with inspiration.
~ Let's try to reach 60 plus reviews before the next chapter(:

~ I am going to try and get more action in and more Kluna (Klaus+Luna) scenes... hopefully at least one a chapter... more if I can.
~ Also, ideas for what I can do with Luna in the next episode 'The Ties That Bind' and the episode 'Bringing Out The Dead' would be helpful. I sort of know what I'm doing for 'Dangerous Liaisons' and 'All My Children'. And after that... well, we'll just wait until that time comes. Your ideas help me get the chapters out faster (:

~ I ended up making a facebook page for my fanfiction. I was debating about it for a while but I eventually gave into it. It will be able to have quicker updates/news on how chapters are coming along. I think it will be able to create a bit more interaction with you guys with what goes on in chapters. The link is on my profile on here if you want to check it out. I will also (hopefully) have sneak-peak chapters for stories that I'm working on but are not posted on here.

R&R 'till the next update
