Grace woke and sighed as she looked to see Damon was calling her. She declined the call. She hadn't been able to look at him since Elijah had told her that she would always be his.

She knew how she wanted to see him again. She wanted to feel him again. She groaned as all she could think about was Elijah running his hands over her body as he had his way with her.

Grace knew how she had to get her mind off of him. Knowing how he had all but wanted to kill her before. And she couldn't let his words get into her head again.

Before she had anymore impure thoughts, she got out of bed and grabbed a shirt from off the floor. She made her way downstairs and saw Isabella. "I need you to do me a favour," she said.

"I'm not free."

Isabella rolled her eyes and smiled. "I will compel you a bottle of tequila. I know it's your poison," she told her.

Grace nodded and smiled. "That will do. What is it?" She asked as she looked to her aunt.

"I have been roped into going to this event with the wolfs mother. And I need company," Isabella said.

"So you're bribing me into going to this event with you? You've been hanging out with Damon and Lily too much," Grace joked.

Isabella rolled her eyes. "Grace."

"Okay fine. But I am making no promises I won't attempt to get drunk. Even though I know it's downright impossible," Grace said.

Isabella shrugged and smiled. "That's fine by me. Let's go," she said as she looked to her.

Grace arrived at the Lockwood house. She saw Damon there. "Gracie. What are you doing here?" He asked as he walked over to her.

"I got roped into this by Bella. Why are you here?" Grace asked as she felt him pulling her against him. She didn't feel anything though.

Damon started nibbling on her neck. Grace pulled away. "Why are you here? Didn't think you'd be the type for this," she said.

Damon shrugged. "I thought I'd test daddy Gilbert is being truthful. Plus there is a chance meeting I need to have with an original named Elijah," he told her.

"Elijah? How do you know he's going to be here?" Grace asked.

Damon smirked, wanting to make her jealous. "A little tip off from my new girlfriend. Andie Star. From action news," he told her.

Grace raised her eyebrows. She looked to him. "Wow. I thought you couldn't get a girlfriend? That's why you came to me for an orgasm," she said with a shrug.

"Well I hadn't seen her naked. Seeing as you're not putting out for me," Damon said.

Grace rolled her eyes. She went to walk off. She turned back to Damon. "And with that comment, I won't put out for you again. So good look with Andie. Wait, is that what you've named your actual hand?" She asked.

"You're not funny."

"No. I'm fucking hilarious," Grace said as she walked off into the house.

Hoping she could manage to avoid Elijah. Knowing if she saw him, she would become putty in his hands. And it was the last thing she wanted.

Grace had always been weak when it came to Elijah. And she had no idea how to even stop it.

Isabella walked over to her best friend and smiled. "There you are. I thought you'd skipped out of coming," she said.

Grace shook her head. "No. I just got sidetracked by this asshole," she told her aunt while pointing to Damon. She turned to her. "Where's the actual drink?"
