I walked through the door to History with Elena and Stefan since they dragged me along with them, and sat next to Stefan as he insisted. As I was taking my things out of my bag, I noticed that Elena looked as though she was about to cry. Following her gaze, I looked towards the black board and saw Mr. Saltzman's notes on it. At first I was confused, until I remembered they were close, and he was now dead according to Stefan.

Stefan sighed as he too saw the board. "It's the first time we've been back in Alaric's classroom…"

Elena slowly nodded. "First period, and I'm ready to bawl my eyes out."

I then saw Rebekah enter the classroom carrying flyers. "Morning, everyone."

"Morning, Bekah." Some random girl replied to her.

I could hear Elena mutter lowly. "Just like that, I'm no longer feeling sentimental."

"So, I'm throwing a little anti-curfew party at my new house. Starts at fifth period and goes 'til whenever. Spread the word."She handed out a couple of the flyers and turned to Elena."You're welcome to join, Elena, if you'd like to bury the hatchet."

She handed Elena a flyer, and Elena took it. "It's a pretty enormous hatchet."

Rebekah rolled her eyes. "Well, I'm feeling generous of spirit."

"New house, huh? Did your brother finally kick you out?" Despite not on speaking terms with Rebekah at the moment, I still slightly glared at Elena for the remark.

Rebekah glared as well."He didn't kick me out, I left."

"So, you left the only person on earth that actually likes you?"I cleared my throat obnoxiously, but Elena just gave me a hard stare as if telling me to stay out of it.

Rebekah looked at Stefan. "Well, your boyfriend liked me once."Stefan looked up at her, clearly not happy to be dragged into it the conversation. "Actually, a lot more than once."

Rebekah smirked, while Elena looked furious, but ever the peacemaker, Stefan spoke up. "Why are you still in town, Rebekah? Don't you have anywhere else to go?"

"Well, history's my favorite class. Actually, where is Mr. Saltzman...?" She paused dramatically and smiled, causing Elena's rage to intensify. "Oh, that's right, I killed him."

Elena lost her temper at that point and threw her pencil at Rebekah, who caught it. Almost too quick to see, Rebekah threw it back at Elena with a flick of her wrist, which caused it to impale Elena in the shoulder. As they glared at each other, Elena removed the pencil from her shoulder, got up, then left before anyone else in class could notice what just happened. Stefan followed right after her, leaving me alone with Rebekah.

Instead of leaving, Rebekah held out a flyer to me as well. "Here."

I didn't take it."You know, the last time I talked to you, you made it clear that you were oh so very angry at me."

"I know. I'm sorry alright. Just please come."Frowning, she left the flyer on my desk and went out into the hallway.

Not fully understanding why, I made my way to the hunter's trailer per Damon's request after he called me. Opening the door and walking into the trailer, I saw Damon inside standing very still.

I leaned against the door."Why did you ask me to come here?"

He didn't bother turning around. "Come in. Close the door."

When I walked further in and closed the door, I finally noticed he had arrows in him that were attached to what looked like explosives. "Tell me that is not a bomb."

"Okay. It's a kitten. It's an adorable, exploding kitten." His voice was sarcastic.

I couldn't help but freak out. "How the hell did you get yourself into this?! And why didn't you just call Stefan instead?!"

"Because I'm proud, and stubborn, and... oh, look! You're already here." I looked at him like he was insane."Come on, you're not gonna get hurt. All I need you to do is cut out the arrow. I'd do it myself, but if I move…"Damon gently touched the string attached to the arrow buried in his back.

"Don't touch that you idiot!"Damon pulled his hand away and made a soft 'kaboom' noise to demonstrate his point. "Okay!"

I grabbed a knife lying on the table nearby and moved behind Damon. Grimacing, I put the point of the knife next to the entry point of the arrow going through Damon's back.

A few moments after, Damon broke the silence. "So, how was your day today?"

I figured it was a great distraction from the sight in front of me. "Rebekah showed up to antagonize Elena. Also to invite people to her party. Oh, the hunter was also there apparently."

He turned his head to look at me. "By the way, did I ever tell you that I found out Ethan had a room in the house?"

I didn't bother looking at him since I wanted to stay focused. "No, but I found out this morning. Apparently, my mom had an envelope that contained letters from them. I wish I had found them before. It would have saved me a lot of time to just read about I'm not a human, I'm related to Bonnie but not a witch, and I'm apparently a faerie."

"You mean like Tinkerbell?" He scoffed

I scowled."No, not Tinkerbell. Not to mention it was spelled like F-A-E-R-I-E."

While I continued cutting around the arrow, Damon picked up something.

"So, Mayor Young. Nice, crazy guy. He wrote a letter about sacrifice and war brewing in Mystic Falls."He held up a letter for me to read, so I paused in what I was doing to skim over it as I saw it was from Pastor Young to April.

"What does he mean, 'a greater evil is coming'?" I continued to use the knife to dig around the arrow in Damon's back.

He shrugged gently, causing me to glare at the back of my head."Beats me."

Damon's phone then started to ring. When he looked at it, though, he ignored the call. I notice it had said Elena when he looked at it, but didn't bother saying anything about it and continued working on freeing him.

I ended up getting annoyed of the silence. "How did you get stuck on hunter duty?"

"Stefan had a Physics test." He spoke sarcastically, and possible bitter as well.

I couldn't stop myself from smiling sympathetically. "You are a good brother. Bad multi-great uncle, but good brother."

"I'm the bad brother. And are you really still holding that against me?" He scoffed.

"You're strung up to a bomb while Stefan plays vampire with the girl who broke your heart. But, you're doing a very good job of acting like it doesn't suck."I paused and made a face."And you do realize you almost killed me right?"

"But I didn't."He turned his head and grinned at me.

I finally finished prying out the arrow as much as I could to allow Damon to remove it without the bomb exploding. "Okay, I think that should be good."

Damon then yanked out the arrow and dropped it onto the table. After, we both left the trailer, and I drove Damon back to the boarding house in my car. When we got there, he picked up a bottle of Bourbon and went upstairs. I went straight to my room.

While in my room, I sat on my bed and contemplated whether or not I was going to go to Rebekah's party. If I go, it would mean that I choose to forgive her, or at least willing to hear her out. If I don't, then it shows that I won't. After a few more minutes of thinking, I glanced at my closet in thought.

When I got to Rebekah's house, I saw a whole bunch of students outside and drinking from a keg. All in all, everyone seemed to have been having a great time. As I walked around, I saw Elena and Stefan near Rebekah. I got closer, but they didn't notice me.

With a smirk, Elena looked at Rebekah and walked over to the keg that people were drinking from. Curious, I watched as Elena placed her hands on the sides of the keg and did a handstand, causing someone to stick a beer hose in her mouth. My lips turned up in an amused smile as everyone around her started chanting, "Chug! Chug! Chug!". After a few moments, Elena stopped drinking, came back down to the ground, and wiped the excess beer from her lips.

"Now I'm ready to go." Elena smiled as Stefan handed her bag to her, and they walked away together.

Looking back at Rebekah when Elena and Stefan had left, I noticed that she was looking as though she was become dizzy, which worried me despite knowing she was practically impossible to kill. When she walked back into her house and into a bathroom, I followed right after.

She became horrified to see darkened veins pulsing throughout her face."What the hell?" She then saw my face staring at her through the mirror.

"My thoughts exactly."I walked closer to her. "We should get you somewhere isolated before someone sees you."

Nodding, Rebekah lead me to her room and closed the door behind us. In a daze, she sat at a desk and looked at her arm where her blood vessels were also darkening.

I sat on her bed. "You don't look so good."

"Whatever it is, it's not the white oak stake, so it can't kill me."She got up and sat next to me. "I was hoping you would come."

"I'm not going to stop being your friend just because of one stupid argument. I just had to let my anger go first."She smiled at me."I'll be back. I want to see if this is happening to other people as well."

I got up and left the room, making sure I closed the door. I walked around to see if anyone else was like Rebekah, but realised that this was most likely supernatural. Since I couldn't find anyone else who wasn't human at the party, I gave up looking. When I was about to go back to Rebekah, April walked up to me.

"Hey, have you seen Elena." She smiled at me.

I nodded. "Yeah, she left with Stefan not too long ago."

She looked down in disappointment. "Oh."

"Yeah, uhh, well I gotta go."I walked back to Rebekah's room.

When I got inside, I saw Rebekah blink, almost in a trance, and look around the room confused. She seemed both relieved and terrified.

"What happened?" I slowly walked towards her after I closed the door.

She shook her head. "Just a hallucination."

"Are you okay?" I became worried.

"Of course." She laid on the bed and patted the spot next to her.

Smiling slightly, I crawled onto the bed and laid on my back. Almost right after, she grabbed my hand and squeezed it.

After a few moments she spoke up. "I'm sorry about Kol leaving."

I furrowed my eyebrows. "Why are you sorry?"

"I know you liked him, and for some time I believed the same could be said for him. From what I understand, there was even something between the two of you." She turned her head to face me, so I did the same. "So, I'm sorry that Kol left."

I smiled sadly at her. "I knew what I was getting into when I started… whatever that was with Kol. I guess you could call it a sort of friendship with side benefits. Well, it doesn't matter anymore I guess, but thank you."

"I am curious, though. How did whatever you had with my brother even start?" She raised an eyebrow. "I only know what you told me about it the day I asked you to watch Sage."

"He was… interesting. Fun. Surprisingly kind even." I bit my lip. "Well, when we were at D.C. we stayed in a hotel, found what I needed, then fell asleep. Though we had separate beds, however, Kol pulled me onto his bed for some reason. I was too tired, so I didn't bother moving. He was gone by the time morning came.

"The next time I was him is when Klaus asked me to go and see if he made a mess in Denver or not. It was after everything with my mother started, so I just agreed. When I got there he explained what he was doing there after I wouldn't stop asking, then took me with him to see Jeremy. That was the day Damon almost killed me. I mean he would have if it hadn't been for Kol's blood, but yeah. Anyways…"

She interrupted me. "Wait, Kol gave you his blood?"

"Yeah." I was confused.

Her eyes widened in surprise. "So you just asked him, and he just gave it to you?"

I shook my head slightly. "I didn't ask him at all. What's the big deal? I mean, it wasn't the first time."

"Kol doesn't just go around giving his blood freely, Eva." She stared at me. "What were the other times?"

"I just figured he did it since I was friends with you." I shrugged. "And, well, the first time was at the hotel in D.C. I let him drink from me, but he took too much, so he gave me some of his blood to help. Denver was the second time."

Rebekah sat up. "Wait, how many times have you given him your blood exactly."

I sat up as well. "The first was the night you were all undaggered, but you knew about that. The second was in D.C., which I just told you about. The third and last was in Denver."

"I'm surprised he hasn't killed you. Well, just continue on with your story then. You left off with Kol saving your life." She laid back down, pulling me along with her.

I got comfortable. "Right. Well, after throwing Damon and Elena off the trail of who sire their line, we went back to the house Kol was staying in at the time. At the house we… talked. Then somehow we ended up making out on a couch which didn't go too far since Elijah walked in on us."

She started to laugh. "Oh, poor Elijah."

When she stopped, I continued. "So, after that, I left. The next time I saw him after that was at the dance. We danced, he got stuck at the school, I went out with Jeremy and Matt to face your mother, then Kol kissed me again before leaving. The next day, I called him from my house, and he came over. We, uh, almost had sex before Klaus called and needed him. That's how I ended up with all of those marks all over my chest. After that I was taken prisoner by Mr. Saltzman. The rest you know."

There was a long gap of silence before Rebekah finally spoke up. "You almost slept with my brother?"

I looked at her and saw that she looked weirded out. I couldn't help but laugh. Suddenly, the door opened, causing me to slowly stop. April hesitantly came in, then knocked on the door.

"Hey."April picked up some empty cups from the ground and threw them in a garbage can she was carrying."Way to bail on your own party."

"I just. I needed a minute. Did everyone leave?" Rebekah got off the bed.

April nodded. "Yeah, deputies weren't actually super-happy about the anti-curfew party."

I sat up, but didn't bother getting off the bed. "Why are you still here?"

"Um, honestly? Picking up trash is a hell of a lot better than sitting at home alone thinking about the family you no longer have." She smiled bitterly.

Rebekah got up and walked towards April. "Hey, uh, if you want, I could... I could help you look into what happened with the fire at your farmhouse."

She became confused. "What are you going to be able to do that I can't?"

"You'd be surprised." Rebekah smiled at her.

Touched by Rebekah's kindness, April nodded. I smiled at the scene.

Hours later, I was back in the Salvatore Boarding House. While in my room, I was trying to take off the necklace I had on.

"Do you need help with that?" I jumped as Stefan's voice called to me from my door.

I laughed. "Yeah, I just can't seem to undo the clasp."

I lifted up my hair for him as he moved to stand directly behind me. "So, uh, you made up with Rebekah."

"I did. Is something wrong with that?"Stefan finally got the necklace off and places it in the jewelry box that was on my dresser.

"I just don't want anything to happen to you. Trouble likes to follow her family." He moved in front of me. "Plus, she killed Elena, Eva. If she had to choose between you or her family, she would do the same."

I bit my lip and looked away guiltily."Stefan, it's not that she really wanted to truly kill Elena. She was just… upset at the moment."

Stefan looked confused for a moment, but then his eyes widened when he took in my expression. "Please tell me you didn't have anything to do with Elena's death."

"I didn't know she was going to try and kill her. I just thought that since Elena's life was connected to Mr. Saltzman's, then maybe they could find a way to bring her back." I looked back up at Stefan and saw how upset he was. "I suggested finding a spell that would make sure she would come back, or even maybe turning her into a vampire. When Rebekah went to kill her that night, though, she didn't know about the blood in her system."

"How could you do that, Eva?!" I flinched and stepped away from him. "Elena never wanted to be a vampire! How could you ruin her life like that?"

I became angry. "I never told Rebekah to run her and Matt off that bridge! I didn't tell her to kill Elena either, I just suggested she find a way to bring her back." Stefan suddenly winced."And she should be grateful that she isn't dead instead of whining and crying about being a vampire. If she didn't want to be one so badly then she should have chose to die."

As I spoke, Stefan clutched his head in pain and started sweating. Then, he snapped and sped towards me, taking me out of my room and pinning me to the railing of the staircase. I screamed and pushed his face to try and get him off, despite knowing how superior his strength was compared to soon as I touched him, however, my hands started burning his skin, and he began screaming. Suddenly, he was ripped off of me, and I almost fell over the railing from becoming unbalanced. Luckily, I was grabbed. Looking up, I saw that it was Damon who helped me.

Damon moved me behind him. "Stefan, what the hell are you doing?"

"She's the reason Elena's a vampire, Damon! And she started doing something to me." He was glaring at me.

"I heard everything, Stefan. It's not exactly her fault that Rebekah twisted it into something else." Damon turned to me and furrowed his eyebrows. "And what did you do to him?"

"I don't know." I frowned.

"Stefan, go to your room or something. Shoo."Glancing at Damon, Stefan glared at me one more time before leaving with a huff. Damon then turned to me and grabbed my shoulders. "Go change into your pyjamas and grab whatever you need to sleep."

I looked up at him in confusion. "Why?"

He sighed. "You're sleeping in my room with me for safety measures. Not that I really care, but Stefan won't exactly forgive himself if he does something to you."

"Fine." I frowned but went into my room.

Quickly, I changed into her pyjamas and walked back out. I closes the door behind me and started following Damon to his room. Once inside, I saw that he had a large bed and became almost jealous of him because of it. While I was looking around, Damon left to the bathroom to change. When he walked out, he laid down on one side of the bed.

"Well?" He was looking at me expectantly.

I blinked. "Oh, right, sorry."

I climbed onto the other side of the bed and went under the covers.

"Hey, Damon?" I closed my eyes and got comfortable.

He sighed. "What?"

"Thank you." I mumbled out then fell asleep.
