Stefan was free from Klaus' compulsion. With his new freedom he stole Klaus' family that were in coffins and hid them in the old witches house.Riley used a locator spell to find him before anyone else could and went to speak to him.
"Stefan?!" she called out. "Stefan." there was no reply
"I know you're here, I tracked you. Witches still favour other witches no matter if you are screwing over a hybrid."
-Riley-
"What are you doing here Riley?" Stefan asked making me turn sharply to face him "I have nothing to say to you."
"I doubt that to be there truth, now that your free from Klaus mind fuckery we can hold a decent conversation." I started messing with my hands "I presume you remember all that you got up to."
"You're asking about our kiss." he stated, I guess I was easy to read.
"All I want to know where we stand, clearly it meant nothing to you, you were under not giving a fuck of compulsion. And even then you still didn't say anything to Damon."
"Neither did you." he added and I nodded.
"I spent most of my time avoiding him, I mean I was drunk and high on a witches concoction. It...it meant nothing right." he was silent for a moment
"Right."
"Yeah, because you love Elena and I love Damon. Your compulsion to cause trouble and my insecurities were a bad mix. Just wanted to clear that up. Okay bye then." I quickly moved my way past him/
"Riley." I turned around "I'm sorry, for taking advantage of you."
"Think nothing more of it. Forgotten. Oh and my lips are sealed in more ways than one." I left him there and tried to leave what happened in the past
--3RD Person-
That was easier said than done, it was a battle of wills between Stefan and Klaus with everyone else caught in the middle. Elena asked Damon to compel Jeremy into going away to Denver to be away from Mystic Falls and felt guilty about it. Damon told her that Stefan saved Klaus to save him and the shortened version of the conversation between two brothers. Then stated that if he was going to feel guilty for something it should be that he kissed Elena which he did end up doing. What neither of them realised is that Riley saw the whole exchange between the two, as she was about to go and see Elena. She stopped short and and a little piece of her broke. Instead of saying something or making a scene. She simple turned back around and quickly walked away.

Stefan was sitting the witches house when Riley came storming in he stood up seeing her.
"Riley is everything okay?" he asked
"screw the right thing." she marched up to him and grabbed his neck bringing her into a kiss. Stefan was stunned for a moment. Now the Stefan thing to do would be to break the kiss and ask what was wrong. But Stefan didn't, Stefan kissed back and used his speed taking her up to the make shift bedroom and the two started to strip each other.
The next morning, Riley woke up to an empty bed. She slowly dressed herself and made her way downstairs. Stefan was waiting for her.
"Morning." she cleared her throat.
"Morning." he gave a small smile "I brought you breakfast." he slid the coffee and bran bag across the small table. She sat down across from him. "Wanna tell me last night was about?"
"You'll hate me." she mumbled
"I couldn't, Riley." he assured her as she had some of her coffee and then began to explain. Stefan just listened when she had finished Stefan stood up and she winced, but he offered her his hand, she stared at it confused for a moment but took it, he lead her back upstairs.
-------
Stefan and Riley began an affair, despite everything going on within Mystic Falls, they stole moments together. Riley had suggested a night out for everyone, just to hit pause and for a moment pretend that everything was normal.
"We shouldn't be partying, we have to find another way to stop Klaus." Elena huffed and Riley rolled her eyes.
"One night, one night the world is not ending and we're having fun, is that so hard? One fucking night Elena. Don't be such a fucking bitch." Riley snapped at her.
"Did you sneak in a couple of glasses before leaving the house?" Damon retorted "Leave her alone." Riley walked away.
"Harmless night of fun right." Stefan shrugged following her. Caroline and Bonnie shared a look with Elena. The night went on and things mostly loosened up. Damon watched as Stefan and Riley were laughing together.
"Still got a bee in your bonnet?" Damon wondered to Elena
"With everything that happened with the Mikaelsons, they're not exactly gonna leave it alone, especially what happened with Jeremy. I just don't think nows the time for a party." Elena huffed
"There is always time for a party." Damon replied and tuned back to everyone dancing. Do you love me came on and Damon heard a cheer, he noticed Riley raise her hands up in glee. "Well look at that St Stefan knows something other than brooding." Stefan was singing along as Riley swayed onto the dance floor. Stefan joined her and they started dancing really close, like Dirty Dancing close.
"He really has changed." Elena mumbled watching the two. Damon stood straighter as he watched his girlfriend dancing with his brother then breaking off to dance with the crowd then back to one another. Damon huffed out a breath and stormed over.
"Easy with the hands brother." he separated the two
"Damon seriously?" Riley retorted folding her arms "We're just dancing. Take a chill pill."
"A little too close for my liking." Damon snipped back
"Oh go suck a lemon, we're having fun. You remember fun...old man. Come, Stef." she pulled him to another part of the dance floor. Damon glared at the two, even though the song came to a finish, Riley ignored him for the rest of the night.
------
The following morning, Caroline was getting ready for the day, she went to wake up her sister and went in without knocking, there sleeping soundly was Riley and Stefan.
"What the hell?!" Caroline exclaimed, waking the two up. Riley's head lifted a little and groaned.
"Not now Caroline, I'm busy." Riley mumbled relaxing her head back onto Stefan's chest.
"Yeah with your boyfriends brother." Caroline snipped making Riley huff
"I'll just go." Stefan detangled himself to gather his things and leave the sisters alone. Riley got up to put on a t-shirt and some shorts before making her way into the kitchen, Caroline followed her.
"Your seriously not going to explain yourself?"
"Why would I?" Riley wondered
"Your cheating on Damon."
"Am I, Am I really or is it more of like this unspoken love square where everyone get's what and who they want?" Riley shrugged sitting down.
"You're officially insane"
"No, I just officially don't care about society rules. No one does. Look, I love both of them and both of them love me, but they also love Elena. Stefan recently has become sketchy on the subject but I know Damon does." she shrugged, Caroline sat next to her
"Your not making any sense."
"When Stefan was Team Klaus, we kissed. It felt amazing but being the good girlfriend I felt guilty and denied it ever happened. Stefan agreed. Then Damon kissed Elena all but professing his feelings, technically he doesn't know I saw it but why go through all the aggravation of lying and saying it didn't mean anything. In fact it inspired me to not deny my feelings for Stefan and Stefan agreed. I no longer see what the problem is, Stefan and I are discreet a lot more that Damon is with his feeling with Elena." she explained to her sister
"You have to tell him."
"No I don't and neither will you, what's going on is beneficial to everyone for now. Leave it be."
