The past few days have been oddly normal for Linkin. His dad wasn't hitting him, Tyler has actually been learning in there two hour study sessions. Caroline some how had gotten his number and had been messaging him.

Avoiding Bonnie and Stefan had gotten easier since he had gotten his car from his dad. Linkin couldn't help feel guilty for staying away from the Bennett's, it hurt alot but he wouldn't give his father the excuse to go after them.

Vicky had gone missing apparently which led to a call from a really upset Jeremy. Now he's at the front door of the Gilbert's ringing the door bell.

"Linkin?" Elena asked confused opening the front door hlaf glairing. Bonnie had told her that he had been ignoring her calls and messages making her worried an upset. So elena herself was anoyed with the lockwood.

"Jeremy called me." He said going to walk in but elena just stayed infront of him.

"Sorry, nows not a good time." She said in an annoyed like tone.

Jeremy came down the stairs hearing the door bell seeing his friend infront of his sister. "Link." He greeted.

"Did you call him?" Elena asked.

"Yair I did so let him in." Jeremy said pulling the door fully open an out of his sisters grasp.

Elena just huffed before walking off up to her room.

"What did you do to piss her off?" Jeremy asked.

"Who knows." Linkin sighed before following Jeremy to the living room where they both took a seat.

"I should probably start with saying sorry." Jeremy said looking at the scab line on Linkins face.

"It's fine Jer."

"No. It was stupid. I was stupid."

"You were drunk, I'm not upset about it."

"Thats still no excuse." Jeremy argued. "I really am sorry."

"I know you are Jer." Linkin said seeing Jeremys eyes start to water. "At least it'll look cool when it scars." He added.

Jeremy snorted a laugh. "Please don't do that." He said still looking away.

"Don't what?" Link asked.

"Make me feel better." He said.

"Jeremy. We may not talk as much now but we made a promise rember." Linkin said.

Jeremy's eyes widened suprised that he still remembered.

"No matter the day, no matter the problem. We fight for eachother and always believe in one another." Linkin recited there vow from when they were little with a fond smile. He held out his hand with hope.

Jeremy finally turned to look at his friend and a tear fell down his face as he rached out taking links hand and squeezed. Linkin pulled Jeremy forwards and into a hug letting him cry into his shoulder.

What neither biy heard or saw was Elena standing at the threshold of the room. She could see Jer crying and even though she was mad at Linkin for hurting Bonnie. She was happy to see Jeremy start to open up again. Elena quietly left the house with a new hope that she might get her 9ld brother back and would finally have some normality back in her life.
