I must have watched Bella's house all night and half the morning, waiting for that red trunk.

Jumping every time a car door slammed.

Where could she be?

Did she find out about Katherine?

Is working with Isobel?

Does she remember?

What does she remember?

Did she help them take Jeremy?

'Elena,' Jenna said as she and Alaric walked downstairs, 'have you been sitting up all night?'

'No,' I lied, stretching, 'I woke up early.'

'I'll get breakfast started.'

Jenna went into the kitchen, and Alaric sat next to me. 'Have they come home yet?'

'No.' I groaned, 'I can't believe she's been carrying pictures of my birth mother and the man who might be my birth father this whole time. How could she keep this from me?'

How could she be so inconsiderate?'
