Último anu; senior year

"AHHHHH! What the fuck! What the fuck! What the actual fuck," I exclaimed. "Cameron," Liz said sternly and my eyes widened. "Did I say that-- Ya know I am so-- lying. Anyway..." I said. I looked around and I was back at my house. Or Liz's house. Bonnie, Caroline, and Tyler were here.

"Oh hey you made-- What the hell is this," I said referring to the thing on my neck. "Cam, uh, I need you to calm down," Bonnie said carefully. "Why do I need to calm down? Are you guys finally going to tell me what you've been hiding from me all this time," I asked smiling. "That and some other things," Bonnie said then Caroline rushed in front of her.

"So Klaus bit you because it's apart of this old crazy ass werewolf mating ritual. But Katherine told us that so we don't know what to believe. On the side part when you killed Dana your werewolf curse was triggered and we also found out that you're also a witch. So like a hybrid of some sorts. The weird thing about it is your eyes didn't change the same color as Tyler's-- ya know that black with gold speck-- it was white with like purple somewhere in there," Caroline explained super fast.

"What Caroline was trying to say is that--"

"Oh no. I understood. So I'm guessing Tyler's here to help me. And this bandage on my neck is to heal it," I said. "No. It's actually to keep it from killing you or hurting you. The more you are away from Klaus the more it hurt and potentially leads to your death. This is a bandage to keep it from hurt while he left. And, yeah, Tyler's going to help you," Bonnie explained. "Rewind. Mating ritual! What the fuck is a mating ritual," I yelled.

"Cameron," Liz said again. "Sorry Liz," I whispered. "I'm going to let Caroline take this one again," Bonnie said. "So the mating ritual. Around, like, Klaus's time they had a mating ritual. Where there was a moon goddess who picked who you mated with. Bonkers! Anyway, so they find their mate through smell, mark them, sex them, and then marriage. Pretty easy. I know it would make my life a bit easier," Carolien said again super fast.

"Thanks to these bandages that's not happening," I said and hopped out of bed. "Where are you going," Liz and Caroline asked. "To school," I said simply.

<~>

"Here we are. Senior year," Caroline said as the four of us stood in front of the school. "Anyone else thinks this should feel slightly more empowering," Bonnie said. "Well, I, for one are overflowing with power so no," I said.

"Ok, so prank night was a bust, but we are accepting it a moving on," Caroline said and we started walking towards the school entrance. "You're right. I mean, why should I let the fact that my boyfriend is seeing the ghost of his dead girlfriends hinder this experience," Bonnie said. "Yes. And why should I let the fact that my boyfriend was turned into a hybrid put a damper on an otherwise fabulous day," Caroline said then looked at me. "Oh. I'm not doing this... Fine. I'm not gonna let the fact that I'm basically betrothed to a 1000-year-old scarred hybrid," I huffed.

"Today's our anniversary. Technically, Stefan and I met on the first day of school last year," Elena said sadly. "I guess that's bad too," I shrugged and Caroline hit my shoulder. I didn't know such an action could make me growl. "Yeah. You win," Caroline said.

"Are you sure you wanna be here," Bonnie asked. "I have to be here. I have to put it behind me. New year. New life," Elena said. "New problems with no solutions," I added. Elena walked away as Caroline gave me a stern look. "Stop with the negativity," she complained. "It's in my program," I shrugged and walked up with Elena.

I walked to class with Bonnie since our first couple of classes were together. "So what? It's not cool to talk to junior anymore," Jeremy said coming from behind us. "It was never cool, loser," I said putting an L on my forehead.
