Happy Together- tvd (On Hold)

Chapter 6: Time Flies

One week in and I'm currently in the kitchen with Jenna and a friend of hers, Elijah, a "historian". "Jenna, could you grab the boxes?" Elijah asks.

"Of course," she says. "I'll be right back."

"So, Miss Gilbert. I hear you are just visiting?" He queries.

"Yup," I answer dryly.

He raises an eyebrow. "And where do you live?"

I scoff, "It's southern. That's as much info you're going to get right now. Also, you hurt Caroline, Bonnie, Jenna, Elena, or Jer and I will kill you."

He raises his hands, "We wouldn't want that, would we? Jenna told me you're a book lover, what are your favorites?"

Screw you, Jenna. "My favorites are mainly classics," I tell him, "Pride & Prejudice, Frankenstein, and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes."

"All good choices," he nods thoughtfully. He stops talking when we hear Elena coming downstairs.

"And by roped, I mean very excited to participate!" Nice save Jen. She closes the stair's door.

I'm so happy I get to see Elena's reaction. It's so funny.

I sigh and walk past them, heading up to my room. I put on blue boxer shorts and a dark grey tank top. I put one of my custom cassettes in my cassette player, pressing play. Teardrops On My Guitar starts to play.

"I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about. And she's got everythin' that I have to live without!" I sing the lyrics as I grab out my journal/scrapbook. I've had the pictures I've taken so far printed. Cutting some out and getting art supplies, I start to create two pages on my visit so far. I draw little hearts around the page.

I harmonize, "He says he's so in love, he finally got it right. I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night!"

I have pictures of me and Jenna, me and Tyler, me and Bonnie, me and Ollie, me and Jer, and some with multiple others.

Out of nowhere, Elijah whooshes into my room. I look up and turn down the music. "Yes?" I ask, going back to my scrapbooking.

"I would like to talk with you," he tells me.

I furrow my eyebrows, "Okay? Then talk."

"What do you enjoy doing in your free time?"

Heh? I answer anyways, "Take a look around my room, what do you think? Obviously music, painting, hanging out with friends, and reading."

He raises his eyebrows. "Yes, it would appear so," he responds. "Do you write music?" He sits in my desk chair.

"Yes, I'm currently working on an album," I tell him.

"I've got to be going, it was nice seeing you Miss Gilbert," he says politely.

I immediately call Care in the morning. "How did it go on the full moon? Are you okay? Is Ty okay?" I rush as soon as she answers.

"He got free from the restraints, but we're both okay. He just needs rest," she updates.

"You probably do too. Take care of yourself, Ollie."

"Okay. I gotta go, love you," she tells me.

"Love ya!"

She hangs up and I get out of bed. I shower and brush my teeth before getting dressed. I pick out a velvet lace -lined top, blue jeans, green converse, brown oval sunglasses, a brown leather jacket, a dragonfly necklace, some bangles, and a few rings. Because I like how my hair looks, I leave it down.
