Note: Sorry about the last chapter and the time to next post. I just wanted my work up because I knew that my computer was messing up.
June 5th
Mystic Falls
(Damon POV)
"Today's Friday. We are getting a break."
"No on Saturday we get a break Damon."
I rolled over and picked up the phone, dialling Bonnie's number. I don't remember why but it was important and she would help us with Mission: Mommy Come Back.
(Kol POV)
"Wake up. Today's Friday. First, take a bath." I got up and took a bath, washing my hair to prevent any further complaint from my brother. I dressed myself up in a grey shirt and black blue jeans. I sat down at the table, waiting. I grabbed my plate and some silverware. I waited for everyone to come in. I took Ty's drink, drank it, washed it and put in wine… or grape juice.
(Tyler POV)
I sat down at the table. Time to see what Kai's got. I smiled. I remember when I first met him. Wait… didn't I bite him the first time I met him? Um… Yes. I picked up my silverware and waited, Uncle Kol was already here.
When everyone else came in, Daddy started talking. Apparently the only place we were going was to some park… well it better have good sights, swings, and a pool or something. I ate my breakfast quickly and chugged my drink. Daddy shook his head.
"Don't do that again Tyler. You could choke."
"Yeah and I would come back or you'd help me… I mean Sorry Daddy."
"Good boy. I'll ignore your sass for now. Since we're all done with our breakfast, let's go. We won't be back for lunch so don't wait up. You'll have to do something for lunch yourselves. I've got the car packed up for our day at the park so go get something to swim in." I got up and got something to swim in, like he said.
I went back downstairs and sat in the car. Daddy was already there, waiting. I sat in the front with him and laid my head on his shoulder, waiting for the others. When Jeremy came out, I lifted my head and Kai and Kol came over followed by Stefan… Kai and Stefan were talking to each other?
(Jeremy POV)
We were at the Lake Oaks Park, I think it was, swinging. Klaus wasn't though. He was grilling burgers and fries. He'd brought a grill so he could stay close but not too close to us. He watched us and the food at the same time.
I watched Tyler trying to climb a tree but because it was so far bent back he kept sliding back down again. We were swinging near the lake and Kai was playing with his phone. Kol was trying to look something up about baseball. How wide the diamond had to be. I had told him it was a square field with four bases shaped like a diamond but he didn't believe me.
"Okay Jeremy..." He smacked me so hard I almost fell out of the swing. "You just HAD to be right. It is indeed a square field my friend. It's 90… feet. No wonder Nik won't let me play baseball in the house. There's not enough room. Well do you want to help me set up the diamond? We could play baseball."
"Building a diamond, coming from you, OBVIOUSLY indicates that we're going to play baseball. Yeah, why not? I wish. We don't have enough people for baseball."
"Actually, Nik isn't against using compulsion or asking others. Or we could make our own rules." He said, looking pointedly at Tyler. Tyler's a hybrid… I forgot he could compel me if he wanted to. Though I'm taking vervain.
"Make our own rules Kol. Kai would probably like to play baseball for the first time with someone besides himself."
"Hey, Jeremy. Leave him alone. Be nice and everything will be rice." I raised my brow at him. "I had no other rhyming word." I shook my head.
"Get that thing built please?" He nodded and got up before taking a stick and walking off. I watched him, waiting for him to come back and so we could begin the game. Maybe Kol brought the equipment. I certainly didn't.
(Kai POV)
I was skipping rocks across the water, trying to see how far I could make them go. It was going out farther and farther than the last ones. I already tried to get my magic back, maybe I had to wait. How did this cure thing even work? Damon had told me what he did to me but he didn't say how it was going to work. He'd revealed it to me when I'd finally pissed him off again and he was trying to get back at me… which ended up with me in the corner 'thinking' about why I was being an 'ass'.
I loved playing with Damon's mind. It was actually easier than I thought it'd be. The problem was Klaus Mikaelson. I needed to figure out how to mess with his mind or his emotions until he cracked and then I could play with him like I do Damon.
'Isn't that mean? You know, treating them like toys Kai?' asked the part of me that had been added by Luke forging with me. I rolled my eyes at the stupid question but part of me knew that, yes, it was wrong. I could just leave. They don't really want me around do they. Not when you see the things I see or do the things I do.
"Hey! Kai! Wanna play some baseball? Or Almost Baseball? At least that's what Kol's calling it." Tyler called, running over to me, NOT using his hybrid speed. Why not? Wouldn't it be faster, more efficient to use all your strength?
"Sure, but first, how do you play 'Almost Baseball'?"
"Well you play it by… I don't know but Kol made it up." I skipped one more rock before following him to Jeremy and Kol. "Uncle Kol, how do you play Almost Baseball again?"
"You play by, since Stefan was kind enough to join, everyone is on a base at all times and one is on the middle mound of dirt. Now to prevent any complaints about in-field or out-field, we are going to use foam baseball and bat so that you have to hit harder just to try to get us from getting the ball and NO ONE is allowed super speed. The runner, as you know, will run as fast as they can because even a foam ball can be caught. Now about ins and outs. If you get touched by the foam ball, you get back to the home base. If it happens three times, you still go back to home base BUT we will turn in anticlockwise way and when everyone has been on the home base, the person who's standing on the mound of dirt will take the place of the person on the home base. They get a turn to swing. To prevent any repeats for the people on the mound, after first round, they turn anticlockwise and then join the game, replacing the person on the home base. HARMFUL fouls will be dealt with by instant loss and you have to sing an embarrassing song and dance to it too. Anyone have any questions?"
"Are there points, how do we keep track of the points, and what do we win if we have the most points?" I asked.
"There are no points. There are runs. Whoever gets the most runs around the bases will win $500." He smiled as if proud of himself for knowing the answer.
"You have $500?" Tyler teased. Kol thought for a minute before his smile fell and he frowned.
"I don't have that money but I can and will take it from Nik. Rebekah does it all the time, why can't I?"
"Because Daddy would be upset with you? Because he wants you to be more respectful and ask him for the money. I mean really, when has he said NO to YOU?"
"A lot actually. You know I used to do that myself back in Mystic Falls when we were back in Mystic Falls. Nik's always been rich… also I can't wait to see Damon again." He smiled with mischief in his eyes. I laughed at him. It wasn't only me?
"Kol! Don't do anything you regret, like hitting him with that stupid bat of yours, wouldn't Klaus kill you for that?"
"Hm… Maybe I should ask him. I mean we all know how much he hates Damon. Right?"
"Not since Jeremy and I have been meeting again for visits. Damon loves sending Jeremy over here so he can have time with Elena." Tyler replied, using a tone with the name Elena. Not hate but something along the lines of poking the name at Kol. I'm confused did Elena do something to Kol?
"Not true Tyler. Damon loves Jeremy. He just knows that Jeremy likes you and he likes Elena. It's a win win. I'm betting Klaus would do the same. Why else is he spending, what, all his time with you guys? I'm usually hanging around him."
"Like back in Chicago right?" I asked. I'd read his duplicate books back in his apartment. I knew it was his because of the name Giuseppe Salvatore and back in Mystic Falls I had found records linking Stefan Salvatore with Giuseppe. Not that I'd tell him that.
"Chicago? Uh, yeah. We were together then and we're together now. Are we going to play this new game or not?" He asked. I shrugged. How am I supposed to know what they want to do? Bicker or play?
"YES! How do we decide who's where who's on the mound first?"
"Kol has the most experience with Baseball than you do so Kol is on the mound." Kol vamped up to his position and waited for us to decide who's where. I stood at base one, the base to the right of home base. Kol had drawn a semi circle around three of them. Everyone else got to their bases and we began the game.
(Kol POV)
We just finished playing Almost Baseball, which needs a better name, and we were trying to catch our breath. Lunch was going to be soon, that's how long we'd played that game. I rolled over onto my stomach, my arms and legs spread out. I brought my legs closer, and then sat up.
"Before we have lunch, you guys wanna play another game, a shorter game? Maybe tag or hide and go seek?" Jeremy groaned when I mentioned tag. I frowned before flipping him over into a sitting position.
"Kol!" He shouted, swiping at me but I dodged away from him before he could actually hit me. He sighed before thinking. "You're always ready to be on the move. No wonder I lost weight." I laughed, he was telling the truth after all. "Hide and go seek."
"Anyone else?"
"What happened?" Nik asked, looking at us.
"Nothing Nik. Don't worry. I'm watching them. You know, like you said right?" Nik nodded.
"Food is almost ready. I promise. Fries and burgers with chocolate shakes." He flashed a smile before disappearing back to the food and drinks apparently.
"Hide and Seek."
"Hide and Seek. Then Tag."
"Yeah. Hide and Seek."
"Hide and Seek it is then." I replied. "And then Tag. "Who wants to count?"
"I will." Kai replied, he got up and leaned against a tree and began to count. Wow. I thought he'd like to actually play. Oh well.
"Scatter!" I called, having always wanted to call that line. We ran away. I ran and climbed a tree, watching Kai as he looked for us. He found Tyler and Jeremy first before searching for Stefan and me. I waited, before jumping to a different tree. I would wait till he was close to me and then I'd pounce him. That wasn't the game but I wanted to do it that way. I saw Stefan come out and then I was the only one left.
When Kai was under my tree, I jumped him and he fell over… hitting his head. He stayed still for a second. Then he punched me in the jaw. I backed up and he sat up, rubbing his head. "Was that really necessary?"
"Hey, I didn't know it'd hurt you." He glared at me and went for another swing but Nik caught his arm.
"Hey. No fighting, remember? Lunch is ready. Come with me." Nik helped Kai up and led him to the picnic table. He didn't do anything but help Kai get food. I got up and followed my friends and Stefan who were following behind as well.
(Tyler POV)
"Consider that a warning Kai. I don't like it when fights break out amongst those I love." Kai laughed at him, shaking his head. Idiot. If I were him, I would have not laughed. I wouldn't want to risk making Daddy angry.
"Daddy? Did we really have shakes?"
"Yes, Ty Ty, I made them myself." He smiled at me before making me a plate and setting it in front of me. "Help me set the plates Stefan." He ordered. Stefan obeyed instantly. I got up to help but Daddy shook his head. "Ty how do you like chocolate shakes? You can try it right now. I've already prayed for the food so it's not poisonous." He laughed at his joke. Nothing he cooks is bad.
I picked up my burger and began to eat. I left my fries last and drank my shake before it wasn't cold anymore. Then Daddy gave me seconds, he gave everyone seconds. Then he pulled out the desserts. Ice cream and cake. I finished my seconds before he put a plate of ice cream and cake on a new plate in front of me. I looked at his plate and saw that he'd only just started eating his food. I finished my dessert slowly, eating half the cake and half the ice cream before combing the two.
"Do you want more Tyler?"
"No thank you Daddy." I looked at the others. The only one with food still left was Stefan.
"Go play. I want to talk to Stefan alone. Please." He added the please as an afterthought, funny that he was trying to be polite. It might be for Kai's sake though. Dad can actually be mean when shoved too hard. I knew that from the way he treated the other factions, and his power/strength was sometimes the only thing that kept him in power.
"Come on Tyler. Let's go play tag!" Kol chimed into my thoughts and dragged me away. I stumbled but he held me up and then continued to drag me away. I waved bye to Stefan and Daddy and they waved back at me. I turned to Kol and yanked my arm away.
(Jeremy POV)
"So who runs first?" I asked.
"Hmm. Let me think. Not Kai, and not me. Tyler? You? Did you start a game first?"
"Nope. I'll let Tyler go first, maybe he'll catch you first?"
"No you go first."
"Tyler goes first, Jeremy will go first in our board games." He smiled at his 'intelligence'. Kol's definitely weird, but that's just the way I like him. I stood up and ran, they jolted and ran away too, Tyler started running a second later.
I ran, faster. I knew if they were actually trying though, I wouldn't have a chance, at least, not against Kol and Tyler. Especially Kol? I have no idea what's stronger, an Original or a Hybrid. I heard footsteps behind me after a minute and tried to run faster, turning left and the footsteps skidded to a halt before chasing back after me. I heard someone jump and looked back to see that Kol had saved me from Tyler. I laughed as Tyler came to a halt, staring at Kol.
I was pounced right when I thought I would touch the safe zone. I started laughing. "That was fun. Wanna do it again?"
"Yes. But I'm not it."
"I am!" Kol called.
We played tag for a while until Kai and I were out of breath. I sat down, listening to Kol play music, sometimes the playing the same song twice or five times. Right now he was breaking that record by playing the song "Lost Boy" for the sixth time.
"Come on, play something else, maybe more along the way of baseball."
"I already played that one, wanna listen to Yankee Doodle? What's the part about him putting a noodle in his hat?"
"No, no, no. He found a feather and called it macaroni." I smiled. "Gosh Kol, learn to listen will you? And sure why not? Play the song." He smiled back and then he played with his phone before he did indeed play the Yankee song. He played both types.
"Well it's not my fault that my ears decide what I hear and what I don't hear. I wouldn't blame you for it. Wanna play Frisbee?" I laughed.
"We don't have a dog, Kol." He looked pointedly at Tyler. I snickered before shaking my head. Then my own ears caught something that made me jump.
"Did it just say 'it made a sound like Father's gun'? No we can't use anyone like a dog, I won't treat you like a dog and I won't let you treat me like one either."
"I wasn't going to suggest you or me Jeremy, gosh. I have morals… I think." He laughed before going back to his phone.
"Then why would you suggest your own nephew?" He opened his mouth before closing it.
"… Shut up. Fine, I don't have any." He played a different song but Klaus came over, followed by Stefan.
"Get ready to go, Nik wants to leave now, it's near dinner time." We all groaned but got up anyway. We had Saturday and Sunday then we would have finished the week up. I sighed, then after three more weeks we'd be going back to Damon. Unlike Klaus, he was more strict and he didn't care what we did during the week or day unless we got in his way or something.
(Kai POV)
We were in the car, I was sitting in the back, listening to music while Klaus slowly drove the car home. Well slow like a human citizen would drive. I watched the people, humans, walking and some were exercising, or running.
I looked over to see Jeremy and Kol talking. Tyler was lolling off to sleep and Klaus and Stefan were talking to each other. I took out my phone and dialled up my sister, and just to freak her out about me having her number, I texted her.
'Hey Joe. I see you ;)'
That should be sufficient in creeping her out. Just a second later I got a reply. I had put my phone on silent earlier. I smiled at her reply. She didn't know it was me.
'Who is this?'
'Your secret admirer.;)' I don't know why but winking faces from mysterious people always creeped her out. I've known that since we were kids. She didn't reply back. I smiled. Maybe my work was accomplished. I'd at least scared her.
"We're home! Everyone out!" Stefan called. I quickly hid my phone, deleting the texts as well. I wouldn't have it traced back to me. 'You should really tell her it was you…' I rolled my eyes and jumped out of the car when Kol and Tyler were out.
"Good job, Niky. I thought I would have to call you and tell you to come home. Dinner's ready."
(Tyler POV)
I picked at my food, not really hungry. I'd had a big lunch. I couldn't really be hungry anyway. We just ate like a normal family. Daddy took my plate, excusing me for my behaviour himself and then just gave me a cup of blood to drink. I didn't want any problems so I just drank what he told me to. Besides, I was in front of him. He would see me reject it.
"How was today Tyler?" Uncle Elijah asked. I looked up at him.
"Today was so awesome. We played so many games, even a game made up out of the blue by Kol. It was a four man baseball game. Then Daddy gave us shakes, fries, and burgers. With dessert. Cake and ice cream. Then Kol and Kai kind of had a fight but it was solved and then we came back home." He smiled at me. I smiled back.
"Was this game by Kol fun? Or interesting?" Aunt Rebekah asked. I looked at her.
"Yeah, it was interesting. Instead of using the real thing, Kol had us use foam bat and ball. I would have preferred football but baseball's okay too. At least with football you don't have to improvise."
"Yes you do!" Uncle Kol replied, practically screaming it. I didn't reply because I knew better. That would start a fight. Which would maybe or maybe not give me a warning but I wasn't really willing to risk it.
"So I guess you guys enjoyed your time?" Genevieve asked. I nodded, they nodded too.
"Get ready for bed. Tomorrow will be fun for you guys. I promise. Tomorrow's Saturday." Daddy said. I sighed but got up. I went to my room to take a bath and wash my hair, I couldn't remember if I'd done that already. "Also wash your hair. All of you. From all the rough housing you did, it needs it." I snickered at Jeremy's reaction. He groaned.
(Kol POV)
We were sitting in the room we had played in yesterday… or the room we were supposed to play in. I looked at them. "What game should we play?"
"I know." Rebekah said, running in with cups and orange juice. I rolled my eyes at her.
"Really? You're not part of this group right now sister, I'm sorry."
"I begged Niky to let me say what games you guys play… I gave up having or getting or taking money from him for the rest of the month." She sighed.
"Wow. So you must be desperate then huh?" She glared at me for a second before shaking her head. I smiled. "So what games are they?"
"Those games are 'What If…', 'Never Have I Ever', and 'Truth or Dare'. Which is why I brought drinks. I would have brought an alcoholic beverage but Niky said if I went there then I'd have to answer to him. The nerve of him, right?" I nodded in reply.
"Tyler. What if… you get to choose one person that must kiss someone on the bottom cheek BUT you must text 'Wanna have sex' to your latest one-night stand?"
"Sure. I don't have any one night stands Kol."
"Fine. Jeremy. You get $50 from me, BUT you have to take 5 shots of the orange juice?"
"Sure. That's like over the top for you. It's a bad bargain if you're paying me to drink orange juice." He drank and then handed out his hand. I frowned and handed him half the money I'd stolen from Nik. Shh! He doesn't need to know.
"Kai. You get to choose who has to talk about what their last sex encounter was like BUT so must you. Unless you've never had sex. Are you still a virgin?"
"Yes, I'm still a virgin. No, I don't want to hear about that. Unless you wanna call up Joe and see what her last sex with Ric was like." I spat my tongue out in a disgusted way.
"Ew. No. Drink." He did and then he spoke up.
"Kol. What if you get $10000 for free if you say yes BUT if you say NO then your best friend gets $20000. You can NEVER tell them where or why they got it from."
"I'm just gonna say No because then we have more money!" I smiled, then drank some orange juice… which was already half full.
"Tyler. What if Google offers you 25% of their company for free BUT if you say no then you get 25% of Facebook."
"Yes. Because people use Google more than anything else right?"
"Jeremy. What if you find true love and have a chance to get together with that person BUT it is one of your closest friends current lover?" Jeremy hesitated.
"I don't think that's worth saying yes to. So." He took a drink of the orange juice.
"Tyler. What if your father wins $50000 on a lottery ticket you gave him BUT he won't share any of it with you."
"Why should I care? He's freaking rich. Yes. Jeremy! What if you get together with the love of your dreams and live a fulfilling and happy life BUT you both die within 40 years."
"Guys, I already have a girlfriend. Her name's Bonnie Bennett remember? No. I'm already happy." I clapped when I realized that there was an awkward silence. He drank some more orange juice.
"Kol. What if you get a chance to win $100,000 by hitting anywhere on the dart board from 5 feet BUT if you miss you will never be loved again."
"I'm a freaking Original. I can do that. Yes."
"Kai. Sauron is real if you say Yes. BUT Voldemort is real if you say No."
"Okay. No." Kai took a shot of orange juice.
"I should have known you'd go with that one."
"Kol what if a god or deity is proven beyond any disbelief to actually exist BUT it's not the god or deity you believe in. Also would you be mad?" Jeremy asked.
"Hmm. I don't know how to answer that question or if it is even a question." I complained, slamming my face in the floor, beginning to laugh.
"Sometimes I wonder if you're even sane Kol." Jeremy replied, laughing too.
"Yes, why not. I mean all Gods are one and the same. No I wouldn't be mad. It'd make people know what to believe in and they'd be doing their best to be good people instead of bad people because some Gods are stricter than others."
"Wow. Kai what if you got rich and famous BUT paparazzi eagerly followed you around every day."
"YES!"
"Tyler what if you had the perfect tan all year round BUT your toes never tanned."
"No. I don't want a tan. I don't even know what a perfect tan is." Tyler drank what was left, which wasn't much. Rebekah returned with strawberry milk.
"Never Have I Ever. Now. Um Nik said you guys only have 30 minutes to finish up your games."
"Awww. Oh well I guess we can keeping playing games. What have you brought this time?"
"I brought apple cider, the non alcoholic type." I sighed, pretending to be upset about not being allowed to drink in a game of 'Never Have I Ever'.
"Never Have I Ever dated a girl." Kai replied. Tyler, Jeremy, and I drank. Ew, disgusting.
"Well never have I killed someo-..." Jer paused. I smirked at him. We're all guilty of murder to the first degree. I said it aloud and Jeremy groaned and we all drank.
"Never Have I Ever fell in love with a witch." Tyler decreed. Jeremy and I drank.
"Never Have I Ever… gone to school and actually gotten a grade for something." I called. Kai, Tyler, and Jeremy all took a drink. "However I HAVE been to a school. Just never done any classes of the grading calibre."
"Never Have I Ever obeyed orders at first given." Kai smiled. I drank, as did Jeremy and Tyler. I was ashamed to have done so.
"Never Have I ever… had a threesome." I drank, the only one to do so.
"I think to make it more interesting, we should give names or say when because we're not drinking and there's only four of us. Never Have I Ever been so drunk I couldn't remember where I lived." Another one where we all drank.
"You're supposed to say what you've never done. Not give yourself away otherwise it'd be 'Never Have I Not'. Never Have I Ever been in a real love triangle." Tyler drank. Oh, yeah. I think Nik kind of stole Tyler's girl.
"Never Have I Ever been cheated on." I pointed at Kai after taking my drink.
"Not fair, you've never been in love with someone. Never Have I Ever… I'm running out of things I HAVEN'T done… Never Have I Ever been suspended from school." Tyler and Jeremy drank. I smiled. Jeremy, had he been drinking, would be drunk by now.
"Never Have I Ever been KICKED out of school." He smirked at Jeremy and, grudgingly, Jeremy took a drink.
"Never Have I Ever gotten arrested for drinking." I drank, laughing at giving myself away. "What happened? How'd you get out?"
"… Nik. That's all I'm saying!"
"But that's only a name."
"That's all I'm saying!"
"Okay."
"Never Have I Ever been punished by Nik. HA! Take that… someone. Besides me." I pretended to blush and drank my cup.
"Never Have I Ever black-mailed someone." Jer replied. I sighed, filled my cup again, and had another sip. Tyler and Kai also drank.
"Never Have I Ever been caught having sex at school." Tyler drank, spitting his tongue out after so long of drinking the same thing.
"Never Have I Ever not tortured my sister." I rolled my eyes, Jeremy drank. Then I heard Nik call.
"Fifteen minutes!" I sighed.
"But Nik-"
"Kai! Truth or Dare?"
"Dare."
"Whistle as loudly as you can." He began a song, whistling it for a whole minute.
"Kol, truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"What is the best part of your day?"
"Aw you care. The best part is me… with all of you."
"Tyler, truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"Do the robot dance." Ty rolled his eyes but accomplished his dare. I smirked at him, clapping for him.
"Jeremy, truth or dare."
"Truth."
"What is the roughest neighbourhood you have ever visited?"
"I don't know. Kol had me do too much travelling and exercising."
"Kai."
"Truth."
"iPhone or Android?"
"Either one."
"Kol."
"Dare."
"Name all your current and past enemies… nope. Name one of each."
"Okay. Past enemies are Mikael Mikaelson. Current enemies are… um. No one."
"Tyler."
"Truth."
"Who is the most dramatic person you know?"
"Elena, Bonnie, or Caroline."
"Jeremy."
"Dare."
"Call up a fast food restaurant and ask to make reservations."
"No. No thank you."
"Then drink." He drank, with a disgusted look on his face.
"Maybe I should ask Nik for eggnog? Kai."
"Dare."
"Share a drinking story."
"How about once when Joe and I were kids, we snuck out of the house to a bar, and having had been given money from one of our family members, I bought us some booze and unluckily that person's lover was there, saw us and took us home where we were scolded, or at least Joe was. I was sent to my room to go do something else. They took the rest of the money from me."
"Wow. Okay, Kol."
"Dare."
"Order a pizza in a foreign accent. You can cancel after placing the order." I picked up my phone, dialled the closest pizza place, ordered five pepperoni, five hamburger, and five different combos. I didn't cancel it, I gave them our address and then waited.
"Tyler."
"Truth."
"Have you ever been in an emergency van?"
"Yeah. I have. More than once."
"Jeremy."
"Truth."
"Have you ever been kicked out of a club or a bar? If yes, explain."
"No, that I can remember."
"Kai."
"Dare."
"Break your glass." Rebekah snatched it away before he could.
"Kol."
"Dare."
"Suck on your fingers seductively." I obeyed, laughing while I did so.
"Tyler."
"Dare."
"Lick Rebekah's ear."
"No. Nik wouldn't be pleased."
"I forfeit."
"Jeremy."
"Dare."
"Kiss every one of Rebekah's fingers." Jeremy did it, though very cautiously.
"Kai."
"Dare."
"Undo your zipper for the rest of the game." He laughed, easily pulling his zipper down.
"Your fly is open." I joked, we laughed at the stupid joke.
"Kol."
"Dare."
"I dare you to tell me how many women you've seen naked."
"Hey, that's not fair. I've seen like 200 women naked? Since, you know. I'm an Original."
"Tyler."
"Dare."
"Spin a bottle and kiss whomever it lands on."
"Nope." He drank some of the cider.
"Jeremy."
"Truth."
"Who was the last person to see you naked?"
"Bonnie."
"Kai."
"Truth."
"If you could be any part on Rebekah what would you be?"
"Her hair." He laughed. "It's so powerful and majestic."
"Whatever Kai. Kol."
"Dare."
"I dare you to slap yourself." I stood up and walked over to the mirror.
"You lookin' at me? You lookin' at me? Stop lookin' at me." I swung my palm out to smash it against the mirror's cheek but missed, on purpose and slapped myself. I gawked at the mirror and began to 'cry'. "You hit me!" I ran over and sat back down, smiling.
"Kol, you're insane."
"Tyler."
"Truth."
"What is your preferred sex position?" Tyler coughed before shaking his head, taking a drink.
"Next time I'll choose Dare."
"Jeremy."
"Truth."
"What fantasy do you wish will come true soon?"
"My girlfriend Bonnie meets my best 'mate' Kol, and they become fast friends." I clapped and whistled for him, Kai joined in and Rebekah smiled.
"That's so romantic Jeremy." Jeremy blushed.
"Enough of that." I replied, helping Jer.
"Five minutes!"
"One more round. Kai."
"Dare."
"Throw a glass of water on Tyler. You decide how much water to put in." Kai threw it at Tyler but he vamped away from the spot immediately.
"Kol."
"Dare."
"Describe how you would commit the perfect murder."
"Get Nik to do it or I would find a perfect victim, follow them, learn their schedule, then meet them in their face, then I would kill them when another of their friends is over at the house and get that friend blamed for it. Not telling how I'd do any of it for real though because Elijah and Nik could be listening in on us."
"Tyler."
"Dare."
"You are a tree huger. Hug something made of wood." Tyler hugged the wardrobe, then sat back down.
"Jeremy."
"Truth."
"Are women with short hair hot?"
"I don't really think I know anyone with short hair. But sure."
"Bed time." Nik said, opening the door to see us. "Anything you children need before bed?"
"Bathroom."
"Hug."
"Kiss." I replied, smiling at my little joke.
"No." Kai got up and left, yawning as he went. I glared at him for a second for after he yawned, I yawned too. Nik gave Tyler a hug and me a kiss. I smiled and slumped into him. He smiled, giving me a hug as well. I returned the hug, because I wanted to and because I didn't want to seem like a jerk.
(Jeremy POV)
I'd just finished using the restroom and got in the third bunk, Kol wanted to sleep on the bottom, and Kai was on top. I got underneath Tyler, covered myself up and laid my head on my pillow and closed my eyes.
(Damon POV)
We were sitting at the table again. Lily was actually kind of going along with this. She was enjoying herself… how could Elena and Bonnie kind of know better than me? 'Because you don't care for her. You're not doing this for yourself.' That was some fucked up truth. I didn't care.
"Lily, can you please pass the salt." Elena asked.
I had just sat down and stared straight at Lily the whole time. "Damon, eat something please." Elena whispered. I picked up my fork and picked up some of… what were we eating anyway? I looked down at my plate. We were having green beans with mashed potatoes, steak with gravy, and also on my plate was parsley. Lily moved and I stared back up at her. She was wiping her mouth clean of the mashed potatoes.
I looked down at my plate and picked up my knife and began to eat my dinner. "How was your day Mrs. Salvatore?" Bonnie asked.
"Please, call me Lily. My day has been quite wonderful. This house is wonderful, it's not the one I remember but it's still a great place to live."
"What was your old house like?"
"It was most delightful." I rolled my eyes and finished my plate before collecting the empty plates and cups and washing them. So I wouldn't have to listen to her pretending to be polite. I opened the fridge and took out my cup of blood and slowly drank it. The slower I was, the slower I'd have to see her again.
I washed the cup and went back to the dining room to see that they'd left. I went to the living room where they were watching TV. I sat down between Lily and Elena and watched the TV as well. It was a while before Lily spoke up again. It was 10:00.
"I'm feeling quite tired. Is there a room I can take?"
"No, you're going back in the cell."
"Yes! There is. Bonnie, the room remember?" Bonnie got up and walked Lily to the room they'd set up for her. They'd gone shopping and then returned with clothes, things for her new 'room' and shoes.
"See Damon? None of that stake was needed. She's great company. Tomorrow I plan on trying to have a tea time at noon. And I would like you..." She got up and sat on my lap, wrapping her arms around my neck. "… to join us." She kissed me. I kissed her bottom lip.
She smiled at me, I couldn't resist so I smiled back at her. "So you want me to join 'tea time'?"
"Yes. Please Damon?"
"Fine."
"Maybe we can take her to a place to swim or something? Since it's summer?"
"I'll think about it. I mean, what would Stefan say if we lost her?"
"Your blood and Bonnie could fix that Damon." She said helpfully. Even though she wasn't being helpful.
"I'm going to bed if I have to deal with Lily outside the house and tea time." I kissed her and led her to my bed.
