162 Candles~2

Mystic Grill
Elena is meeting Damon on the streets outside of the grill.
Elena:"Look dungeon boy I'm done being your little slave girl. You seriously hurt me, and I will be damned if you think..." Damon uses his compulsion on her. "Oh my god where have you been? It's really good to see you."
Damon:"Much better. You wanna throw a party here at the grill tonight?"
Elena:"Oh, why don't you do it?"
Damon:"Because then Stefan and his BFF won't come. I need a lot of people. Big crowd. Invite everyone."
Elena:"And why am I having this party?"
Damon:"Because you're gonna help me solve this town's little vampire problem. And I want my crystal back."
Elena:"But Bonnie has it."
Damon:"I know that. Get it from her."

Salvatore Boarding House
Lexi:"So this Nevaeh girl. She'll come around. I'm sure of it. Have you had sex yet?"
Stefan:"No."
Lexi:"Sex always works. I mean you'll rock her world so hard with your vamp sex, she'll be yours forever."
Stefan:"Yeah, but see, this isn't about sex or...or compulsion or any of our other tricks. She has to want to be with me on her own terms."
Lexi:"Wow. That sounded all mature and grown up."
Stefan:"I'm not getting any older."
Lexi opens her suitcase, picks up a blood bag and takes a sip. Stefan stares at her.
Lexi:"Want some?"
Stefan:"No. Thank you."
Lexi:"Relax I didn't kill anyone for it. This phlebotomist I went out with a few times, he's my supplier." She sees Stefan's expression. "Oh don't judge, ok? Listen I tried the animal diet; lasted about three weeks."
Stefan:"It doesn't matter. Cause if I started again...I just don't know if..."
Lexi:"You could stop."
Stefan:"Lexi, I'd never judge you."
Lexi:"I'm just jealous of your restraint. I have none. I delight in hedonism. Speaking of which, what are we doing tonight?"
Damon enters the room,"Funny you should ask."
Lexi:"I wasn't asking you."
Damon:"There's a party tonight at the grill. You'll love it. Banquettes, tacky wait staff, all of Stefan's friends."
Stefan:"Yeah, I don't want a birthday party."
Damon:"Well, it's not for you. It's a party party. No one's gonna know that it's your birthday. Elena's throwing it."
Stefan:"Damon, stay away from Elena."
Damon:"We're friends it's cool. It's important for the town to see us up and about like normal folk. We need to blend." He looks at Lexi's blood bag. "I prefer mine at 98.6." He leaves the room.
Lexi:"Let's go." She sees Stefan's expression. "Please?"

Gilbert Residence
Me and Bonnie was still in my bedroom, Elena left because she had got a call from someone.
Bonnie:"It's weird, huh? After all this time joking about being psychic. I really am a witch. You don't think I'm a freak, do you?"
Nevaeh:"No I don't think you're a freak, you are far from it. But I just don't understand though. If your Grams asked you to keep all of this a secret, why did you tell us?"
Bonnie:"You are one of my best friends. I can't keep a secret from you."
I felt a ping in my chest, because I'm keeping a secret from her, but it's for her own safety.

Salvatore Boarding House
Lexi is just getting out of the shower and she has a towel wrapped around her body.
Lexi:"I'm almost ready."
Stefan:"I can't believe you actually think that we should really go to this thing."
Lexi:"It's not like I'm asking you to run outside midday without your ring. I mean, seriously, it's a party."
Stefan:"A party that Damon wants us to go to, you know? So my question is why? I think that he's up to something."
Lexi:"Who cares? What can he possibly of all those people in a public place?"
Stefan:"He knows how to keep a low profile, believe me."
Lexi:"Okay so he'll behave. Come on. One day a year I get you, one day that you're not brooding and existing in your own head."
Stefan:"It's my birthday, yeah?"
Lexi:"It's my day. And that guy that jumped into the Trevi fountain and got drunk on the torch of the Statue of Liberty, that guy can take a break from all of his worrying for one night and go to a stupid party. So quit your whining,"She hits his butt,"and go get ready."
Stefan claps his hands together,"Fine."

I walked up to the front door of the boarding house and knocked.
Lexi:"It's open! Come in."
I was confused of who that was, I entered the house and I saw a girl in a towel.
Lexi saw me and recognized me as Isabela,"Oh my God! How...uh—Wh—...Who?"
Nevaeh:"I'm Nevaeh. Who are you?"
Lexi:"Lexi. A friend of Stefan's."
Nevaeh:"Is he here?"
Lexi:"He's in the shower. Do you want to wait?"
I scoffed,"No."
Lexi:"I'll tell him that you stopped by."
Nevaeh:"That's okay." I left the boarding house in shocked and got into my car.
