If only, Damon Salvatore

030. WHEN IT COMES TO BAD PLANS, THIS ONE TAKES THE CAKE

Chapter thirty

"When it comes to bad plans, this one takes the cake."

Beatrix had gotten dressed for the day and was going to head off to school, but as she made it to the front door, the sound of a plate being put down on the table filled her ears, as she turned around, seeing her grandmother "no school today. Time for a history lesson." she shared, as Beatrix put her bag down by the door and began walking over to the dining room, she sat down and as she did, a plate eggs, bacon, sausage and toast were in front of her "so?" she asked, as her grandmother and mother sat down "what I tell you right now can not leave this table understood?" her grandmother asked them.

As Beatrix and her mother nodded, her grandmother let out a breath "so, you two remember those friends I was talking about when I said we can go to New Orleans and runaway?" she asked "yeah." Beatrix and her mother told her "well, those friends of mine happen to be the original family." her grandmother shared, as Beatrix's eyes went wide "what? So, you know Elijah?" she asked her "mm-hmm. And you recall how Damon when he was leaving was raving about him being dead?" Beatrix's grandmother asked her "yeah..he shoved a coatrack into his heart and he desiccated." Beatrix told her.

As her grandmother shrugged "well, he's not. So if you end up seeing him sometime in the future knocking on our very door, don't be surprised. Although I do hope you were nicer to him then the Salvatore boys?" she asked her, as Beatrix sighed "well I tried before and after he found out it was me and not actually Elena to make a deal with him, but Stefan and Damon showed up being heroes and even after that I tried again then Stefan shot him with stakes and then knocked him down the stairs where then Damon staked him so I don't know how that's gonna look on our end." she shared, shaking her head.

She stuck her fork in her sausage and she did, she furrowed her brows "but after Rose and Trevor told me about the sacrifice, I did recall that night grandma, where you told me the bedtime story of the king cursed by a witch to not be able to turn into a beast, and I was wondering is that.." she asked her, as her grandmother shook her head "no, not Elijah. Although don't get me wrong, he's terrifying, he taught me a lot on how to make deals and how to decide who to trust and how if they break that trust then you kill him, like we did to Mason. But, no, no, the story is about a real person but about his brother Klaus. I already knew someday he'd be coming after Elena after knowing how much he hated Katherine it only made my hatred for her grow, which is why she's in the tomb, spelled in and will only be let out when the time is right." she shared.

As Beatrix's mother raised her brows "you mean when Elijah or Klaus, let's you know?" she asked her, as Beatrix's grandmother nodded "precisely." she told her, biting into her toast.

The next day, Beatrix was going to leave for school but as she opened the door, Stefan was standing there as her eyes went wide "Stefan..uh, I was going to school." she told him "rain check school. I need you." Stefan told her, and when he did, Beatrix looked behind her and then back at him "please elaborate because it's been a really weird couple of days." she shared, as Stefan chuckled "walk with me." he told her, as Beatrix stepped out of the house, she shut the door behind her, as the two began walking down the driveway "so we went to talk to Katherine to get the stone, because according to Rose's friend Slater there's a way to destroy it." Stefan shared.

And as he did, Beatrix furrowed her brows "wow, so the women who ran off before she could be killed decided to come running back, huh? And now you two are trusting her word and some guy name Slater's on how the moonstone cane be destroyed?" she asked, as Stefan nodded "I know. I know it sounds crazy. But we have to try whatever we can to save Elena." he shared, as Beatrix held her arms out "then by all means tell me how you destroy it, enlighten me?" she asked him "by releasing it from the moonstone." Stefan told her, and when he did, Beatrix dropped her hands and turned looking at him "you can't believe that." she told him.
