CHARLIE WAS IN ONE OF THE MOST AWKWARD SITUATIONS OF HER LIFE. Caroline was talking to Meredith about her dad at the hospital, and Charlie and Elena had comes with her. However, since the blonde was gone, that left the two brunettes alone, neither of them wanting to say a word to the other because of the fight that happened on the night of Caroline's birthday. They just kept shooting each other weird glanced while they waited.

The Lockwood girl was still angry with her for acting like since she was only fifteen, she could not understand the older girl's decisions. Charlie may be younger, but she knew that people should have free will and be able to make decisions for themselves. Elena had no right to compel Jeremy away.

Caroline, luckily, came back pretty fast, and she had a confused and slightly surprised look on her face. The brunette girl glanced at Meredith who seemed pretty nice when she had spoken with her. It was a little weird how casually she mentioned the part about the vampire blood, and it made the Lockwood wonder where she got it from She kept walking down the hallway, and the other two joined her side. The Gilbert girl commented, "That was fast."

"Yeah, he's not here. He was already discharged," the Forbes girl informed them before turning to Elena since Alaric had been hanging out with Meredith a lot. Charlie furrowed her eyebrows, wondering why Bill did not call his daughter if he had been discharged. She was also expecting at least a text from him, wondering whether they were meeting up to turn again or if she was just going on her own. "And she seems perfectly nice by the way...a little intense, maybe, but I think it's sweet, you wanna make sure Alaric's not dating a total psycho."

"He's my family. I have to look out for him," Elena explained as Caroline reached her phone up to call her father. All of a sudden, she lowered the phone from her ear and had a blank look on her face. Charlie froze as well because she had a pretty good idea about what was happening based on what she was hearing. "What?" the human asked, noticing their confused and shocked expressions.

Charlie answered for her friend, this being the first time that she had spoken directly Elena since the party. "We hear it."

"Hear what?" the doppelganger questioned with her face scrunched up in confusion. The younger girl forgot sometimes that everybody else could not hear the same things that she and the other vampires could.
