I was driving to the address Klaus had given me to go to when my phone began to ring. I bit my lip while trying to find it without looking away from the road. Finally I found it, so I put it in speaker. "Hello?"
"Where the hell are you?" It was an angry Rebekah. "I've been looking all over for you."
"I'm actually out of town. I've been driving almost all night." I quickly looked down at my GPS and saw that I was almost there.
"Did you forget that the decade dance was today? I even got it changed to the twenties, remember?" I hear her yelling at someone in the background, so I patiently waited until she finished.
"I promise that I didn't forget. I'm just doing a small favor for your brother." I paused as I arrived and parked my car. "I'll be back in time for the dance."
She sighed dramatically. "Alight, but if you don't show, I am hunting you down." Without so much as a 'goodbye', she hung up.
With an amused smile, I got out of the car and looked at the house. Before I could fully take it in though, I feel arms around me, and suddenly I am inside.
With wide eyes, I turned around. "Warn me next time."
"Where is the fun in that?" It was Kol. "Maybe you should be more discreet in your stalking."
My mouth fell open in disbelief. "I am not stalking you!"
"There's no need to deny it, darling. It was only a matter of time with my devilishly handsome looks." He grinned at me.
I couldn't help but let out a snort. Of course, I did agree with him on the comment about his looks, but there was no way I would inflate his ego even more. "Right. You keep thinking that." He began to glare at me, which tempted me to grin cheekily at him. "For the record, I'm here because Klaus wanted me to check up on you to make sure you haven't gone on some massive killing spree."
He scowled. "I am not a child that needs to be monitored."
"Well, I had nothing else to do." I shrugged and walked passed him to sit on a couch.
"Unfortunately for you, darling, I happen to have plans." He walked to stand in front of me.
I raised an eyebrow. "Plans?"
"I happen to be meeting a young Jeremy Gilbert some time later this day. Before then I need to head out and feed, so I simply have no time for idle chit chat." He pulled me up and started to lead me towards the door.
I tilted my head. "Gilbert? Is he related to Elena?"
"He is her younger sibling." He looked as though he was becoming impatient.
Rolling my eyes, I lifted up the sleeve of my shirt on my arm and offered my wrist to him. "Here, so you'll have time for my questions that seem to annoy you so."
Without saying a word, Kol grabbed my arm, only to pull me towards him and remove my thin scarf. Without wasting any more time, he dove into my neck, and I felt the sharp pain of his fangs piercing me. It was a sensation I remembered from our time at the hotel, except he was a lot more rough.
Finally, he was done. While he was rougher, however, he did not take as much blood as before seeing as I wasn't as dizzy as before. Picking up my scarf, I wandered farther into the house to find some gauze before I lost anymore blood. When I did find it, Kol took it out of my hands and sat me back on the couch. He decided to patch me up himself. After he was done, we both relaxed.
I turned while I was putting my scarf back on until I was facing him. "So, tell me about this 'Jeremy Gilbert' person? And why are you even near him if he's Elena's little brother? Shouldn't he believe your family is the root of all evil or something?"
"He has no idea of who I am. The doppelganger apparently had one of her playthings compelled to come here and stay away from everything supernatural." He started to play with my hair.
I became confused. "Wait, then why are you even in contact with him? Don't tell me you wanted to make friends with him or something?"
Kol, while he didn't stop messing with my hair, scoffed."Of course not, darling. Dear old brother Klaus wants me to keep an eye on him for future plans to get people to do what he wants. How do you think he was able to convince Bonnie Bennett to unlink us all?"
I frowned when thinking about this. While I didn't exactly know Bonnie since we have only met once, I couldn't help but remember that we are family. That, and the fact that she hasn't been an ass to me unlike Damon and Stefan, made me not want her to be threatened like that.
Kol then stood up. "You might as well come along with me to meet up with him."
I stood up to follow him. "Where?"
"A small local restaurant that's nearby." My face lit up at the idea of food.
It took up only about ten minutes to walk until we saw a guy with dark brown hair and eyes and enough height for me to want to groan in frustration.
Kol called out to him. "Jeremy!"
"Hey, man" He turned to look at me. "Hi, I'm Jeremy."
I smiled at him. "Evangeline, but I prefer Eva."
"Nice to meet you. Uh, Kol didn't say you were coming, though, so sorry if I seem a little surprised." He glanced at Kol as he said this.
"It's alright. Kol didn't exactly know either. I decided to surprise him." I gave a version of the truth.
Kol decided to speak up. "You both do realize I'm right here, right?" I stuck my tongue out at him playfully.
"Well, I'm going to find us somewhere to sit while you two order." I turned to Kol with a grin. "Order for me, yeah?" When he nodded I started to walk away.
As I was walking, I heard Jeremy make a comment to Kol. "Your girlfriend seems cool so far." I slightly smirked in amusement.
I was able to find a small booth towards the back that would fit about four people right away. I sat down and waited for the two to finish up at sit down. To pass the time I took out my phone and started playing Pokemon. I was so immersed in the game, that I didn't even notice when they sat across from me moments later.
"You do realize that there is food in front of you, right?" I jumped violently and dropped my phone from fright.
I looked to me left to see Kol smirking and holding my phone. I heard Jeremy laughing across from us. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!"
Instead of answering, he just grinned like a smug asshole and gave me back my phone. I pouted as I took it from him. After putting it away, I finally paid attention to the food. My eyes lit up once I saw the curly cheese fries, boneless wings, and a drink.
I smiled cheekily up at Kol. "You're forgiven."
Jeremy chuckled. "So, how did you two meet." He put some fries in his mouth.
I turned to look at Kol and saw that he had shoved his whole mouth with fries. I had to hold in a laugh as I answered Jeremy. "We almost bumped into each other. We were at a party."
He looked between us. "Did you two hit it off right away then?"
"I guess you could say that." I chuckled before I started eating as well.
Kol's phone then goes off alerting him of a call. He looked to see it was, and I saw that it said 'Nik' on it.
He stood up. "I have to take this. I'll be right back."
He went to walk out of the small restaurant as he answered it. I couldn't help but notice he has a nice looking behind but quickly averted my eyes as I blushed when I realized what I was doing. My gaze had lingered on him for too long. I looked back at Jeremy.
He was smiling. "So, where are you from?"
"The great city of Chicago." I thought back to my time before I moved to Mystic Falls.
"Wow, how is it over there?" He leaned forward in interest.
I became almost lost in my memories. "It's amazing. I love going downtown every now and then. Oh, especially in the winter! There's an ice skating rink right by the Big Bean."
Jeremy grinned. "I've actually drew the Big Bean before, actually. It was for an art project."
This made my eyes snap back to his. "You're an artist?"
He nodded. "It's a bit of a hobby at the moment."
"Who knows, maybe one day you'll have works in museums everywhere." I couldn't help but grin at him. For Elena's brother, he wasn't like her at all. It was refreshing.
It was then that Kol returned. "Unfortunately, I have to go run an errand for my brother." He turned to me. "You don't mind staying with Jeremy, and I'll meet you both at the batting cages?"
"I don't mind." I tilted my head at look towards Jeremy for his answer in this.
It took him a few seconds to realize why we were staring at him. "It's fine with me."
Kol nodded and tried to shove as much food in his mouth as possible. After he threw the containers in the trash and came back for his things, he ruffled my hair and left. I couldn't help but glare at him as I tried to fix it. Turning towards Jeremy, I see that his food was gone, so I decided to finish mine. Thankfully he waited patiently without complaining. Once I was done, we cleaned up our mess and walked out.
Apparently Kol and Jeremy had plans at the batting cages, so that's where Jeremy and me were waiting for Kol to finish whatever her had to do. I had went back to playing Pokemon on my phone. Eventually Jeremy started to look over my shoulder and suggest things to me as I played. After a while, I eventually grew bored of playing and decided to let Jeremy have a turn. I decided to look around for other means of entertainment instead.
I happened to see a vending machine in the distance and decided to buy a snack for later. "Hey, I'll be back. I kind of want a quick snack."
Jeremy was looking at the bats as he responded. "Alright."
The vending machine wasn't too close to where we were, but I figured it didn't matter since we were just waiting and doing nothing anyway. When I got to it, I saw that almost half of the snacks were gone. Luckily, they had a few Reese's Cup, so I bought three of them. One was for myself, and I decided to be nice and get two more for Kol and Jeremy. Satisfied, I placed to snack in my sweater pocket and started walking back. As I was walking I was struggling to get the change and rest of my money into my wallet, however. I may have almost tripped a few times as well. As I got closer, I ended up hearing voices.
"Jer." From the sound of it, a female had joined us, but I couldn't place the familiarity of the voice.
Next I heard Jeremy. "Hey, what did you get?"
As I was about to answer him, I heard the same voice yell out. "Damon, it's Eva!"
Hearing the name, I quickly glanced up to see Elena next to Jeremy. Before I could do anything else, Damon pushed me into a cage with his hand squeezing my throat. I immediately began to claw at his arm.
"What are you doing?!" Jeremy yelled out.
Elena turned to him. "Jeremy, she works for Klaus!"
"What?"
Black dots began to appear in my vision as Damon's hand continued to block my airways. Before I could pass out, I decided to try my chances at a normal male's weakness and hope it worked against vampires as well. I kicked him as hard as I could between his legs.
Immediately, he fell to his knees, and I was let go. I fell to the ground coughing as I sucked in as much air as I could. I wasn't able to focus on anything else that was happening around me for a few minutes. By the time I began to calm down, Damon was already beginning to rise, so I frantically pulled out my vervain filled water gun and squirted him in the eyes.
As I stood up, I saw Elena trying to run towards me, but Kol made an appearance by shoving her back. Of course, Damon couldn't have this. Once he recovered again, he tried to attack Kol, but was hit with a wooden bat Kol had in his hands.
Kol grabbed an aluminum bat from the bat rack in replace for the broken wooden one. "You know, I'll never get use to aluminum. But hey, at least it won't break."
As he was about to hit him, Damon quickly picked up half of the broken wooden bat and stabbed him through the chest. As Kol fell to the ground, I instinctively let out a squeak and try to go towards his body to pull it out, only to be stabbed through my stomach myself. I stumbled, then fell to the floor face first.
Though I couldn't see him, I heard Jeremy yell. "Did you kill them?!"
"Her, maybe. Him, no, but it'll give us a head start. Okay, come on." After Damon spoke, it didn't take long for the world to go black.
When I finally regained consciousness, I saw that it was night. It took me a few moments to gain my bearings. Once I did, however, I wished that I didn't. At the slightest movement I made, my abdomen began bursting in pain. My lips were open in a silent cry as I pressed my hand to my wound. Tears filled my vision due to both the pain and frustration at only being able to lie in the ground. That's when I had remembered Kol. My mind was cleared enough for me to finally think of looking for him. I saw him a few ways from me with the piece of wood still sticking out of him. Sucking in a deep breath and bracing myself, I began my attempt at moving towards him. Every movement I made me want to scream and cry, but I tried my hardest to ignore those instincts. FInally, and a few agonizing moments, I was close enough to where I was able to grasp the edge ot the wooden piece. I stilled as I took sharp breaths. Then, I used up the rest of my strength and pulled as hard as I could. It didn't work. I almost screamed in frustration. Tightening my grip on the piece, I decided to use a different tactic and use my leg to push against his body while I pushed away from him. This time, I was able to remove the piece, but I had to hold in a scream as the action forced me to turn onto my back. All I could do then was wait.
When Kol does finally awaken, I'm fighting to keep my eyes open. During my wait, I had felt my body go cold, then numb. I had lost way too much blood. Even with this trouble in staying awake, however, I could clearly see that Kol was beyond furious. I saw him speed towards a lone jogger nearby and kill them in rage after drinking their blood. Finally, his rage seemed to have diminished enough to where he stills himself. By this point, I was unable to keep my eyes open any longer. While I could no longer see what was happening, I did feel him kneel on the ground next to me. The next thing I know, Kol places his wrist to my mouth and blood trickles down my throat. After the wound was closed, my eyes fluttered open and I groaned.
"You left quite the mess." I looked at him confused as I sat up, but then followed the trail of his eyesight and saw my blood scattered everywhere. I was horrified as the fact that I had almost died hit me.
I was so entranced with the scene, that I almost didn't notice Kol pulling me up until I was standing. To clear my mind, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. When I opened my eyes pack up, I was able to spot my phone on the ground, so I bent over and grabbed it. Luckily it wasn't damaged. Turning to Kol, I saw that he seemed to be texting someone on his phone. After he was done, he grabbed me and sped away.
When we stopped, we were standing in front of an old abandoned-looking house.
Kol turned towards me. "Now, just stay out of the way and wait for me at the back of the house."
"I'll be fine to go with you. I have this." I held up my water gun which was running low on ammo.
He scoffed. "Right because that worked out so well last time."
His comment made me glare. "It actually did since it stopped Damon from choking me."
"Fine. Just wait outside until I have dealt with her." He sighed loudly, and I nodded with a smug smile.
To pass the time I decided to look around the neighborhood, wondering why it seemed so empty. Eventually, I realized I had already looked at everything. I got bored of looking around at this point, so I just decided to wait patiently.
Finally, I saw Kol come back out. "Come on in, darling."
As we walked in, I couldn't help but feel horrified at how cluttered everything was. The house was a mess! I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't even bother to pay attention to Kol walking in front of me. It seems as though that everywhere I looked there was something occupying the space. Talk about extreme hoarding.
I silently followed him into a room before I froze. Impaled on the wall was a dead and greyed vampire, whom I assumed to be Mary as Kol was informing me on our way here. Though I knew he was going to kill her, I didn't expect for her to on display as she was. Both her decaying body and blood dripping onto the floor sickened me. Seeing as I hadn't seen many corpses in my life, especially one such as grotesque as this one, I couldn't help but feel physically ill.
I went to move away, or at least face somewhere else, Kol grabbed me from behind and held my head in place, forcing me to stay staring. I ignored the pain of his grip and squeezed my eyes shut. I also tried to struggle out of his grip, but he wouldn't budge. Tears rose behind my eyelids as I squeezed the arm that was wrapped around me.
"Don't look away. Then you'll never get used to it." He laughed lightly. "You'll have to when you're around my family as much as you are."
Partially because there was a part in me that knew he was right, and partially because I wanted to get this over with, I slowly reopened my eyes. A few tears that built up had escaped as I forced myself to try and relax. After what felt like hours, but was most likely only a few minutes, I began to feel less sick and almost completely relaxed. It also helped that Kol was extremely comfortable to lean against.
At that moment, we heard the door open. Kol quickly let go of me and went to sit behind the door on a chair. I bit my lip as I glanced around the room before deciding to just sit on the bed right next to him and turned the light off on my way there. As we waited in the dark, I could make out traces of voices that sounded like Elena's and Damon's, yet I could not understand what they were saying.
Eventually, Kol became impatient with waiting for them to make their way to us, so he knocked something to the ground to create a crash. I couldn't see what it was, but it sounded as though it was made of glass. Soon, the door was opened and Damon came into the room followed by Elena who is carrying a torch. As she moves it around the room, she catches a glimpse of Mary and settle is onto her body.
Damon was stunned. "Mary."
Kol chose then to turn the light back on. "Quite contrary." He then stood up and began to walk past them. "Shame about Mary, she used to be a blast. Don't quite know what happened. I fear all the time she spent with my family might have ruined her. She was a bit of an Original groupie."
"And were you her favorite?" Elena was being cautious with what she asked.
"You mean, did I turn her? I think I did. But no, wait, maybe it was Rebekah. There was also a Klaus period. And let's not forget the Elijah affair. I spoke to my brother, I know you're trying to find out who you descended from. Now you never will. So, where did we leave off?" Kol suddenly hit Damon with the baseball bat in his hands. Evan as Damon fell to the ground, Kol continued to hit him.
Damon was somehow able to yell through the pain. "Elena, get out of here!"
Elena did as he said and ran for the door, but decided to move in front of it. We weren't done with them yet exactly. I may have also smirked at her since I was having so much fun.
From the corner of my eye, I saw Kol walk towards us. "According to my brother, you're off limits. Please don't test me." Elena made a move to shove past me, so I shoved her to the ground.
Damon, being Damon, got up and rushed towards me in anger. "Don't touch her."
Kol came to my rescue by throwing Damon off of me. "Oh dear, we've hit a nerve. Relax, darling, I just want us to be even. You snapped my neck, you killed my brother, and then you humiliated me." He began to hit Damon with the bat repeatedly. "There, now we're even."
As Damon seemed to go unconscious, Kol grabbed me and speed us both away.
Kol walked passed me as we walked into his house and sat on an armchair. "You know, I'm curious how a tiny little thing like you became associated with my brother."
I glared at his back as I walked towards the couch. "I became friends with Rebekah. After she was daggered, he came back to Mystic Falls and killed your father. At the time I had no idea what happened to Rebekah, but Klaus ended up compelling me to try and find out where the coffins where you and your siblings were. The night you were undaggered was the night he took off the compulsion, actually."
"And just like that, you just help my brother?" He raised an eyebrow.
"I figured it was smarter to work with him, rather that against him" I shrugged. "Not to mention you and your siblings are too bad. Well, to me at least."
"You truly are an interesting one aren't you." He grinned at me as my cheeks started to heat up.
I pursed my lips. "You already said that, you know."
He just stared. "I know."
Suddenly, my phone chimed, signaling that I had a text. I looked and saw that it was from Rebekah. It was a reminder for the decade dance the next night. At the thought of it, I groaned and threw myself backwards on the couch to where I was laying on it.
Kol looked at me in amusement. "What seems to be the problem now?"
I lifted myself up until I was leaning back instead of laying down to be able to look at him. "Your sister demands that I am back at Mystic Falls for the 1920s decade dance tomorrow."
"And the problem is?" He looked confused now. Now, I wasn't going to tell him this, but it made him look adorably cute.
I pouted in dramatic despair. "It means that I have to be there early enough to get ready of course. It makes me exhausted just thinking about how it's going to take me forever to get ready."
Kol smirked in response and came over to me. "Then let's get your mind off of that shall we."
He went onto the couch on his knees and slowly began to leans over me until I was flat on my back. Well, at least it felt slow to me with the tension in the room rising. As he hovers over me, I distinctly notice one of his hands supporting himself to the right of my head, and his other on my left hip. Looking at him, I felt myself blushing, and I subconsciously licks my lips. Kol then pushed his lips against mine. It was almost at though the room had heated up. My desire had spiked from just his lips on mine. It as almost instinctual to kiss back. All thoughts flew from my mind as Kol's hands roamed my body. I gasp in pleasure as a hand found its way to my chest which opened the way for our tongues to intertwine. Fully in the moment, I started to roam my hands over his chest. I led one of my hands to rest on his arm, and the other hand in his hair to pull him closer to me. Breaking the kiss, Kol smirked at me and began leaving kisses down my neck until stopping at the base of it. Him sucking hard on that spot, along with the fact that he had wrapped one of my legs around him and grounded his hips to mine, caused me to moan out. I could feel him grin against my skin. He quickly started kissing me again.
Suddenly, the door flew open, startling me enough to pull away. Looking towards the doorway, I saw that it was Elijah. My face began to burn with embarrassment at being caught like this.
"I should go." I stand from the couch and gather my things without looking at either of them.
"Perhaps you should escort Miss Evangeline out, Kol?" Elijah sounded amused.
I looked to see that Kol was glaring at Elijah with what seemed to be annoyance. I wasn't sure if it was from interrupting, or his suggestion. To my surprise, Kol does as he says, however. He came up to me and started to lead me towards the door with his hand resting on my lower back. Once we got outside, he took his hand off and walked next to me. We were at my car in a matter of seconds.
I thought for a moment and turned to face him. "You know what, I'm expecting you at the dance as well."
Kol leaned down until his face was near mine. "What just happened doesn't mean we are dating, darling. You won't be seeing me there."
I rolled my eyes at him. "If I am going to be tortured by Rebekah the whole night, then I am taking you down with me." With that, I got into my car, stuck my tongue out at him, then drove away.
It was the night of the dance, and I was off to the side and looking for Rebekah. I hadn't seen her the whole day. Even when I woke up, all I saw was a simply beautiful flapper styled dress already set up for me to wear with a matching headband and pair of shoes. Of course, she happened to slip in some fancy black silk gloves as well. The dress was a shiny emerald green and had a thin black and emerald lace headband. It was paired with simple black pumps. Without Rebekah to help me like we had planned, I had to bring up a YouTube tutorial video on how to do my hair. Luckily, it turned out perfectly.
While looking around the room again, I saw Kol walk towards me in a suit and slicked hair.
I glanced back at the dance floor. "I thought you said you wouldn't come?"
"Shut it." I smirked up at him.
"Well, since you're here: we're dancing." I turned to him, grabbed his hand, and started dragging him to where everyone else were.
My mind went back to Rebekah as we danced. "Have you seen Rebekah anywhere, by the way? She's the one who was looking forwards to this like crazy, but I haven't seen her anywhere."
Kol looked around. "There are many people here. She's probably somewhere you can't see. She'll find you eventually."
"I guess you're right." I couldn't help but still frown.
He smirked of course. "I know I am."
I then bit my lip and decided to ask a question that I've been dying to ask. "I'm curious, what was it like living through the different time periods?"
He started to look slightly bitter. "Quite confusing considering the plentiful amount of times Klaus decided to leave me daggered in a box."
I was shocked. "How many times did he dagger you?!"
"Too many to keep track of." He frown as he looked away from me.
"That's horrible." I frowned and shook my head slightly. "What about when you weren't a vampire?"
Kol looked back towards me. "What about it?"
I tilted my head. "What was it like?"
"I lived in a village surrounded by werewolves. Every full moon we had to hide away from them in fear of being killed. The rest of the times were filled with hunting and surviving. Of course there was also the magic." He grinned.
I looked up at him confused. "Magic?"
"I was the first of my sibling to tap into it. A bit of a child prodigy if you will." He smirked and paused in order to spin me. "I loved it. There was a certain rush and excitement in it. But then it was all gone when I became a vampire. I went through a bit of a dark period. I ended up spending my time with witches sometime after. Traveling with them and learning all about magic that I could."
I paused as I stared at him. "You miss it."
"Yes, though I prefer who I am now, to who I was then." There was something in his eyes I couldn't identify as he said this.
"Kol, if I were a witch, would you help me?" I bit my lip.
There was a long pause. I almost thought my question wouldn't be answered, until I heard him speak. "Of course."
After a few more dances, I decided that I needed a break since my feet began to hurt from the heels. While we weren't able to find seats, I decided that leaning against Kol was good enough. It was then that I caught a glimpse of Stefan heading towards one of the exits suspiciously.
"What is he up to." I mumble to myself.
"Who?" I glanced up at Kol.
"Stefan. He looks awfully suspicious." I bit my lip as my curiosity grew. "I'm too curious for my own good, I swear."
"Well then, let's follow him." Kol began to pull me along with him.
He walks up behind Klaus who's standing in front of some salt line. What he said shocked me. "Your mother is back."
I interrupted them and stepped forward making them turn toward our direction. "Wait, what?"
Klaus seem surprised to see Kol. "Ah, Eva. Don't you look stunning. Fancy seeing you here Kol."
Stefan didn't look happy. "Seriously, Eva, you're with Kol?"
"Says the one with the brother that almost killed me." I snapped back at him.
Based on his shocked expression, I could see that Elena, Jeremy, and Damon must have left that piece of information out. "What?"
Klaus ignored him. "It seems that Mother dearest has returned from the dead and trapped us all in the school."
"She also has Elena." Stefan of course had to mention her. "Everyone is meeting in a classroom, come on."
I looked at Kol who shrugged, and we began to follow along with Klaus. Once we got inside, I saw Bonnie chanting some spell with Damon, Jeremy, and some other guy standing idly around her. Jeremy looked surprised to see us. I couldn't stop myself from glaring at Damon.
"Uh, hi. I'm Jessie." The other guy that was standing near them spoke to us as we entered.
I figured he must be new considering how polite he's being, so I smiled at him. "Eva."
I was the only one who bothered replying. Several moments of silence, save for Bonnie's chanting, followed after.
Jamie decided to speak up. "She does this all the time, right?" He sounded nervous.
No one answered him. Instead, Klaus decided to speak in anger. "What's taking so long?! All boundary spells have a loop hole."
Suddenly Matt entered the classroom. "People are walking right out of the dance, past the barrier."
"Matt and I can leave, we can stop Esther ourselves. We just gotta find out where she is." Jeremy's idea wasn't actually too bad.
Of course, Stefan didn't think so. "It's suicide, Jeremy."
I scoffed. "As if we have any other plans." I looked towards Matt and Jeremy. "I'm going with."
Kol decided to speak up at that moment. "And what is a tiny little thing like you going to do?" I turned to glare at him.
"He does have a point." Stefan was chuckling.
I looked at both of them. "Keep it up, and I'll stab you both."
Suddenly, Klaus grabbed Jamie by the throat and started to strangle him. "Suicide would be disappointing me! Now work your magic, witch, or I'll start killing people you fancy."
Bonnie screamed. "Let him go!"
"Not until you get us out of here." Klaus was becoming more angry as time went by.
Stefan decided to interfere. "Ah, don't be stupid, Klaus. Bonnie doesn't give a damn about us. The only reason she's helping us right now is to save Caroline and Tyler. You start killing the people she cares about, she'll tell us all to go to hell." Luckily, Klaus listened and let go of Jamie.
The tensions within the classroom were getting thicker with each passing moment. I huffed in annoyance and decided to go back to the dance for now, but not before telling them to come and get me when things get started.
Once I got back, I headed straight towards the drinks. Once there I quickly poured myself a cupfull.
"There's alcohol in that, you know." I heard Kol walk up next to me.
"Good." I glanced at him and started to drink it.
As we were positioned outside of the Salvatore tomb, I decided to snap a particularly large branch by stepping on it to speed things up. When Esther walked out, Matt and I were pointing guns at her, while Jeremy had a crossbow.
Matt yelled at her. "Don't move!"
"Where's Elena?" I rolled my eyes at Jeremy's question.
Elena came outside and yelled. "Jeremy!"
Jeremey kept focus on Esther. "Let her go."
"How foolish of you, to risk your lives in defense of those who will kill you. Especially you, Eva. But if that is your choice." Esther did something witchy, and somehow Jeremy, Matt, and I turned our weapons on each other. Mine was pointed at Matt, Matt's at Jeremy, and Jeremy's at me.
Jeremy turned frantic. "Matt! Eva, drop your gun!"
I snapped at him in annoyance. "I can't! I'm not controlling it!"
"Esther stop it!" Elena yelled.
I closed my eyes for a short moment in annoyance of Elena. The next thing I see is Esther falling over dead with Mr. Saltzman behind her with a knife. "Oh my god. Where's my ring? Tell me what happened."
With that over with, I stopped paying attention to them and began looking at the gun that was given me. With a glance to see if anyone was looking, I decided to keep it and put it into my bag. I then started walking away.
"Stealing? How scandalous." I jumped as Kol appeared before me.
I glared at him as I held my hand to my chest as though to will my heart to calm down. "It's not like they don't have plenty more. Plus, it might work better than my simple vervain filled water gun."
All I received was a smirk before I was quickly grabbed. The next thing I knew, we were back at the school. I had gotten used to Kol doing this without my permission, so I didn't even bother to glare at him anymore, I was grateful even since I didn't want to have to walk back in the heels I was wearing. Instead, I started to walk towards my car.
Once there, I turned to him. Before I could say anything, Kol pushed me against my car and began to kiss me. I quickly responded by pulling him closer with one hand in his hair and my other clinging to his shirt. After what felt like a few minutes, I pulled away in my need for air as I was quite literally breathless. Stepping away from me, Kol smirked at my state, winked, then sped away.
