AFTER BONNIE STORMED OUT OF THE KITCHEN, Harper quickly followed after her, plopping down on the couch in the living room next to her.

"She's frustrating, isn't she?" Harper spoke up first, glancing over at Bonnie, who let out a slight laugh.

"Yeah, immensely. I just don't understand why she won't at least try to believe me, you know?" Bonnie replied, turning her head to meet Harper's gaze.

"I get it. I think... In her own 'Caroline' sort of way, she is trying." Harper stated truthfully, although it was hard for her to say, considering her distaste for the blonde.

Caroline walked in a few moments later, playing with her hands, as if she were nervous to speak to Bonnie.

"Look, it's just not me." Caroline started to explain, sighing out softly as she looked down at both Harper and Bonnie. "Okay? I don't believe in the 'woo, woo'. But, if you do, then I'm in. That's all it takes for me to jump onboard. Because, believe it or not, I consider you two to be my best friends." She added, causing Harper and Bonnie to exchange glances, wondering if Caroline was genuine with her words.

Caroline sighed as she sat down beside them, holding the necklace out to Bonnie, which she slowly took, a small smile on her face.

"Elena, we're good now, you can come in!" Caroline called out to Elena, who quickly rounded the corner, a small grin apparent on her face. "There is just way too much drama in this room. So, what do you guys wanna do?" She asked, glancing in between all of them as she spoke. "Oh! I have an idea! Why don't we have a seance?" She suggested eagerly, causing Elena to raise her eyebrows slightly.

"I don't think thats a good idea." Bonnie warned, but Caroline was already up from her seat on the couch.

"Come on! Let's summon some spirits! This Emily chick has some serious explaining to do." Caroline tried to convince them, her hands on her hips as she spoke.

Unfortunately, that was the conversation that ended up with the four girls sitting in the dark in Elena's room, forming a circle around some lit candles as Bonnie wore the necklace.

"Bonnie, are you sure this is safe?" Harper asked cautiously as they all held hands, preparing for this so-called "seance".

"No, but we won't know unless we try." Bonnie replied truthfully, only making Harper's fears worsen.

"Shh! Be quiet and concentrate." Caroline demanded, letting out a small breath of air. "Okay, close your eyes. Now, take a deep breath. Bonnie, call to her." They all obeyed her demands, closing their eyes and taking a deep breath simultaneously.
