Elena and Elijah had just finished training. It was Monday morning, they woke up really early so they could train before she went off to school.


Rebekah: There two you are.

She had been looking for them.

Elijah: What's wrong?

Elena: Is everything ok?

Rebekah: No, Its not. You need to get your Salvatores in check.

Elena and Elijah frowned.

Elena: What did they do? And their not my mine.

Klaus: They came over thinking you were compelled and needed saving.

Kol: Apparently they don't like you being a Mikaelson.

Klaus: Yes, Damon tried to attack us while Stefan looked around for you, but all he got was a tour and a broken brother to take home.

Rebekah: For once I'm glad you two trained in the woods.

Elena: I'll get them in check alright.

Elijah: Rebekah, can you stick with Elena at school? I'll pick you two up, in case they try something again.

Rebekah: You don't even have to ask.

And you didn't. Elena was like a sister to her now, even if she wasn't ready to admit yet.

Kol: And I'll stay safe. I know how much you all would miss me.

He smirked. Elena rolled her eyes.

Rebekah: Sob off Kol.


Elena and Rebekah got to school.

Rebekah: Alright we're here. Before we get out, Elijah said to stay together no matter what.

Elena: Its a good thing we have every class together. Bonnie can help. Bonnie can use her powers to stop them. Caroline too.

They got out and went to find Caroline and Bonnie, they told them what happened this morning.

Caroline: They WHAT?!

Rebekah: They plan on trying to take Elena away from us.

Elena: Have you seen Stefan?

Bonnie: Yeah I saw him at his locker .

Elena: I'm gonna call the boys at home, Damon might try and go back and do something.

Elena called Elijah to tell him they all need to stay together in case Damon tries something, even if they can't die.

Rebekah: I say we attack them and compel them to bloody stop and be done with it already.

Elena nodded.

Elena: I agree, I'm texting them all right now, I'll include that too.

Caroline: Good. Now lets go to class.


Later at lunch.

Rebekah: We made it through the morning classes without something happening.

Elena: I just can't believe they tried anything. I told them I'm fine, and yet they think I'm compelled.

Bonnie: Like why would someone as big and bad as the Mikaelsons need to compel for a new addition to their family? What would that do for them?

Stefan: I don't know, Rebekah, why don't you tell us.

They all rolled their eyes.

Rebekah: Sob off Stefan. We're not hurting Elena, she's with us of her own free will. She like family to us, and we don't hurt family, we protect family.

Elena smiled at Rebekah.

Stefan: And she's family just because she saved you all from dying?

Rebekah: It's more than that.

Elena: It is?

Rebekah: Yes it is. I've noticed she brightens up the room. She makes my family happy and brings us together, especially Elijah, I never seen him so happy with anyone. All that and she's only been with us for a week.

Elena: Why Stefan?

Stefan: Why what?

Elena: It's been a week since I told you and Damon everything and you guys attacked my home, my family.

She paused to look and smile at Rebekah who returned her smile.

Elena: To try and take me. I know I haven't been with them for long and yet we consider each other family, but are you and Damon really going to take me away from that? After everything I've been through. I know we started out hating each other but things have changed. I would like it very much if you and Damon would my friends and support me. Please.

Rebekah: She did come to you two first.

Stefan: I'll think about, and let you know. Can't say the same for Damon, but I'll back off. Sorry Elena.

And with that he gave a small smile and walked away. Elena took a deep breath.

Caroline: Well. That went easier than I expected.

Bonnie: Sometimes you need a good speech.

Rebekah: Or a reminder of what you could loose.


Later after school was over. Rebekah and Elena headed to Elena's car, to see Elijah leaning on her car.

Elijah: Rebekah, Elena.

Rebekah: Brother.

Elena: I thought I told you to stay put with your brothers.

Elijah: I did, up until Kol got tired of waiting to see if the Salvatores would do anything, so he went to Damon and compelled him right before he was about to take vervain before paying your school a little visit.

Elena: And here I thought we would have to wait till we got home for that.

She said as she looked over to Rebekah.

Rebekah: Can't say I don't disagree.

They all got the car and drove home. On their way, Elena told Elijah what happened at lunch.


Kol: Le-Le! I knew you missed, just couldn't stay away from me could you?

Elena rolled her eye.

Elena: First, my name isn't Le-Le. Second, I live here now, or did you forget that? Just because you have a month, doesn't mean you have to use it.

With that she walked off towards her room, turning once she got up the stairs.

Elena: Oh, and Kol? Next time I tell you to do something, do it.

Kol: Yes, sorry Le-Le.

She shook her and left, Elijah smirked at her retreating form. Kol turned towards Elijah.

Kol: She's quite the keeper, Eli. She has the Mikaelson fire in her. How about making her one?

Elijah: We haven't been together that long, and she's still in high school. But I do agree, she does has the Mikaelson fire in her.

Kol: That doesn't mean you can't propose after she graduates school.

Elijah: Kol.

He warned in a calm voice.

Kol: Alright! Fine.

He threw his hands up in surrender and walked off. Elijah shook his head, that might not be the last time he brings it up.


AN: I know this one is short, but I kept getting writer's block on this chapter. But I promise to make the next one longer. I'm thinking about bringing a bad guy in for the next chapter or two, not sure who.
