   In any other condition, Bodie would have scolded Henry for drinking to the extent that he did, but he restrained himself from doing so, knowing that it was one of the few times that Henry finally got to wind down as a whole without either himself or Will around. And honestly, Bodie was happy for Henry to at least have friends even if he asked Henry to have them. It meant everything to him in knowing that Henry had friends as a whole even though he knew that the only reason why he did was because of him—but even still, Henry had friends that wasn't him.

   He left Henry to sleep in, knowing that Henry needed sleep. Though, before Bodie left, he placed multiple blood bags by Henry's bedside table just in case he woke up needing it. After that, he left to go out into the town of Mystic Falls, knowing that all that he was going to do was judge the living fuck out of the modernity of the town, knowing full well that it was bound to happen.

   He walked his way into the town centre, making his way to the Mystic Grill. He knew that it was far too early for day drinking, but he needed something to do with himself. He'd been saying to Henry for a while that he was buying things for their house—which he had been, but he was getting bored of it. He could have compelled people to do it for him, but he chose against it, mainly because he had a feeling that the people within the town knew of the existence of vampires and were probably drugged with vervain.

   Anyway, going to the Grill was somewhere where he hoped that he wouldn't have to stress too much about anything. Of course, he knew that there was a chance that something would come up, which he was half expecting, but he just wanted some form of peace. He opened the door to the Grill, walking in, and the first thing that he took notice of was Tatia and Katerina's doppelganger sitting in a booth with some other guy that he was sure was called Tyler. He remembered Henry talking about him.

   "A lot of us like to keep to ourselves for the full moon," Tyler was saying to Elena. Bodie moved for the bar, though kept listening. "Chain ourselves up," Tyler continued, "but there are some werewolves that like to gather in places where they don't have to do that, where they can enjoy it."

   "What kind of places?" Elena asked.

   "Mountains, state parks, deserts, that kind of stuff," Tyler responded.

   "Anywhere in Tennessee?" Elena questioned.

   "Yeah, here," Tyler responded, "give me your phone. I'll try to pull up a map."

   "Thanks for this," Elena said after a moment.

   Bodie, now with a drink in hand, came towards the pair of them. Tyler was arching his neck down to Elena's phone, though looked up when Bodie came up to their table. "You know, if you want to talk about werewolf issues, ones that lead to Klaus—I presume, I wouldn't mind taking you to where he could be."
