"the bond."
Larisa was good at avoiding people when she wanted to be. During one of her and Caroline's rare friend fights, Larisa managed to avoid the girl for a week straight, until they both eventually stopped being stubborn and apologized. After what happened at the dinner party, Larisa had been avoiding both of the Salvatore brothers, along with Elena and her brother. She wasn't ready to hear what they had to say or act like she never said anything at all, which she assumed they were going to do.
"I suck." Larisa rose a brow at Caroline's words, as the blonde joined the Lisbon girl at her locker. "The one thing I'm good at is talking, and when it comes to Matt, I can't even do that anymore."
"Things still weird between you two?" Larisa guessed.
"Big time. Caroline confirmed, giving a small nod. "He wants me to tell him how I feel, or leave him alone. I don't know what I'm supposed to do, Ris. I like Matt, so much, but I'm trying to protect him too."
"But he doesn't know that." The witch reminded her softly. "He's confused, Care."
"I know." The blonde sighed, resting her head back against the lockers. "At least I can use girls' night tonight to take my mind off of it."
"I've forgotten about that," Larisa admitted, closing her locker and leaning back against it. "I might not join in. I'm not really in the mood."
"No way," Caroline warned her firmly, quickly shaking her head at the idea. "You need this just as much as I do. So, you're joining in, and I'll play buffer between you and Elena if you want. But there is no way in hell you're ditching tonight, okay?"
Larisa's lips twitched up in amusement, before raising her hands in defeat. "Alright, okay." She gave in.
Linking their arms together, the two began to make their way down the hallway for their next class, when Larisa spotted Alaric waving to her. He nodded inside his classroom, clearly gesturing for her to join him, and she sighed. Muttering goodbye to Caroline, she made her way into the familiar history classroom, closing the door behind her. She rolled her eyes when she turned to see her brother, along with Elena, but didn't say anything to them, perching on the desk furthest from them.
Leo stood up and went straight to his sister, he couldn't even talk to her at their home as she had put a spell on her room, preventing the other twin from entering. Elena followed behind him, he slammed his hands on her desk, making the girl look up at him with a cold stare. "What the hell are you doing? I'm trying to talk to you and you've been avoiding me!" he yelled in frustration as the doppelganger put a hand over his shoulder trying to calm him down.
