Night of the Party

"Hey, you mind if we leave a little early? I told this girl Anna I'll give her a lift," Stefan asked Kol as he applied gel to his hair.

"No worries, Darling," Kol grinned. "I am happy to be getting out tonight. Estel is happy, all is well. Even bloody Bex is happy and that almost never happens anymore."

Stefan agreed, "Yeah, I'm glad she is free to go to the party. I heard some talk that the girls were going to try to sneak her out."

Kol winced, "Sneak? Ah, that would have been a bad idea. Elijah lives to suss out plots like that, but I suppose he is a little distracted with Hayley and Moses."

"And Aaron," Stefan added. "He's really taken that kid under his wing."

Kol cackled, "He is vexed with me because I told Estel how Elijah tanned his hide before bed. I thought it was kind of amusing, but he didn't think so. Apparently, it was his first whacking ever. Can you imagine? A lad that age never having gotten a proper hiding?"

Stefan laughed, "Kol, it's the times now. I think it is a sign of, I don't know, the new times to bring up children in this fashion. They say it doesn't mean they don't get disciplined, but..."

"It seems that way, eh? Aaron doesn't seem like a bad lad, just naive and sheltered. What I wouldn't give to be able to do witchcraft like he can...," Kol mused.

"Really? You would give up your indestructible body and immortality just to be able to do magic?" Stefan asked in shock.

"Aye, to be alive again. Feel my heart beating from fear or excitement...when magic courses through your body, you feel the energy, like nature and all just going through you. It is the ultimate high," Kol confided, "Not unlike driving really, really fast! I love the car, mate."

"Just remember, it has pitifully bad brakes for a car that powerful so don't wreck it with any mortals in the car," Stefan reminded him.

"I'm not wrecking it at all. Remember, I still need to get my bloody license. You know when motor cars first started, there was none of this license nonsense," Kol ruminated.

Stefan nodded, "Yeah, I was around then, too. Let's go. We have to swing by the Grill."

Zhu Residence

Later

Anna hated sharing the house her mother compelled for them with vampires like Frederick and Bethanne. Harper was nice and polite, but would rat her out to her mother in a second if he thought she was deceiving her for a second. Lucky Pearl was busy dealing with Frederick. She had warned all of them not to feed off of Miss Samantha Gibbons. They needed her alive as their land lady and also to keep more powerful vampires out. Yet Frederick had disobeyed and Pearl caught him drinking from Miss Gibbons when she got back from town. Ironically, Pearl had been robbing the hospital blood bank supplies while Frederick was feasting on Miss Gibbons.

"Frederick, I am going to have to punish you," Pearl said sternly. She took a fair-sized wooden spatula out of the kitchen drawer and put it on the counter. Frederick's normally swarthy complexion turned ashen. Was Pearl going to stab him? Stake him in the heart?
