Author's note: okay first of all I just finished Shadow and Bone and I am not okay. I am here to say Darklina supremacy and that's it. (Shockingly I am obsessed with the Darkling, see a pattern with Kai?)

Jennifer's pov

Two weeks have passed since Bonnie and Damon came back to the real world.
To say they were upset with my relationship with Kai it would be an understatement.
Bonnie barely talked to me.
I tried to make small talk and find ways to spend time with her but she would make excuses.

It was hard not having my best friend by my side. Then again I couldn't blame her. Nor Damon.
Kai was the reason they were stuck in that place and God knows I would react the same if I was her...
Damon was very angry too. He called me a various sets of names but he eventually just settled with just constantly making sure to remind me how bad of a decision that was.

But each day I spent with Kai it felt like I have made the right choice. These past few weeks had been the best of my life. We did so many things together. Kai tried to make up for all the time he had lost in the prison world. We saw tons of movies, tv shows (including supernatural which Kai had become obsessed with).
We shared music, well Kai did because everything I showed him seemed to horrify him.

He also spent a lot of time at my dorm. My roommate,Samantha, was the sweetest person ever. She assured me she had no problem and would even sleep over with another mutual friend so we could have some privacy.

Today was one of those lazy days where I didn't have much to do.
Christmas break was almost over and with all that had been happening I was behind my classes.

I stared at the same page for at least thirty minutes. Usually I would be thrilled to read about Baroque since it was my favorite period but my mind didn't seem to be able to focus.
In two days it was Liz and Ric's wedding.
Of course I would be there I was a bridesmaid. But I was worried about everyone's attitude towards me.
I would never blame them but I couldn't live the rest of my life feeling guilty.
Even the thought of meeting Liv made me want to throw up.

She hated me so much just like her father did.
Liz was surprisingly more understanding. She told me she didn't approve but even she couldn't deny all the progress Kai had made. He was a completely different person.
He was patient, more thoughtful and even secretly excited he would become an uncle, even though he never admitted it.

I knew the more he felt he could let his walls down and feel safe he would become a better person. He just needed the right treatment.

He had said he would be at the wedding with Liz's pass and well Alaric's acceptance of his wife decision.

A knock on the door stopped my train of thoughts.
I set the book on the bed and went to answer.

"Well look who is still trying to study" Kai said immediately after I opened the door.

I rolled my eyes and let him inside after giving him a small kiss.
"It's going perfect. I have been reading the same page for half an hour."

I settled on the bed and made some room for him.

Kai seemed like he had grew up fast these past weeks.
He looked so much older than when I met him. Granted he was stuck at 22 for a long time so I guess now he just starting growing old faster.
Not that I complained. He had completely lost his boyish look.

"Just take a break it's going nowhere, baby." Kai said as he sat on the bed, taking the book in his hands and examining it.

"Could you do some magic and put all the information in my head." I asked in a sweet voice, knowing even if he could do it, he wouldn't.

"Of course I can. I am a coven leader. But you will do it on yourself." He winked.

I grunted loudly and buried my face on the pillow.

"Don't be a child. I know you can do it. Just stop worrying about all the million other things and you will focus.'

I lifted my head off the pillow and stared at him.
"Since when you are the logical in this relationship?"

Kai seemed to be thinking about it for a while then shrugged. " I am older.

I rolled my eyes at his comment. Technically he is my 40 year old boyfriend and he hates it when I mention it.
"Look who is using his real age in his advantage."

"I am trying to enjoy being young as much as I can. I already look so much older." He looked a little sad admitting it.

"Well a lot hotter." I grinned.

Kai chuckled and gave me a small kiss.
I grabbed the back of his head and pushed him closer, deepening the kiss and moaning into his mouth.

He didn't need a lot of persuasion.
He pushed me to the bed and his right hand went under my ass, pinching it a little too hard.

I tried to take off his shirt but he stopped me.
"Unfortunately as much I would love to pin you down and have you as many hours as you can handle I have to go."

He pushed himself off the bed and stood up.

"Why? " I asked, not trying to hide the disappointment on my voice.

"Your friends have apparently found another prison world which could potentially have the cure. Bonnie asked me to help them." He responded.

My eye brows knitted together in confusion. Bonnie and the rest of them despise Kai. Why would they ask for his help. They have made it clear they don't trust him.

"They asked you to help them?" I blurted out.

"Believe me I am as confused as you are but I didn't want to decline. Plus you have to study." He was almost at the door but with a few steps he closed the space between us and gave me one more kiss.

"I'll call you when I am done, deal?"

"As long as you fulfill the promise you made earlier." I purred.

Kai grinned again which made my stomach flip.

"You know I will." He winked at me and went out of the door.
