Matt Donovan formed a quick bond with Stefan Salvatore. Feeling appreciative of him saving Elena's life, he welcomed him into the school. Tyler and Stefan quickly noted his athleticism and encouraged him to join the football team. When Tyler and Matt came to the Boarding House to work on their History project, Matt was excited to learn Stefan was also into making model cars. As the two blondes built the models, Tyler utilized his artistic skills to design them. As Elena entered her acceptance phase of grief and Matt no longer believed himself in love with her, Matt was able to rejoin the closeness of his childhood friends. Life was wonderfully mundane.
Finally with enough vervain to harvest, Alice crafted necklaces and bracelets for the remaining humans in her life. After revealing to her aunts that vampires had returned to Mystic Falls and were seeking Elena, they sat down as a family to inform Bonnie. With Bonnie in the know, Alice explained the purpose of vervain and had her gift the jewelry to Caroline, Elena, Jeremy, and Miranda. Tori gifted one to Matt, while the human Salvatores had already been taken care of the second Damon and Stefan returned to town. Damon was not happy to be advised to start consuming small amounts on a daily basis, while Stefan did it without hesitation.
The days passed quickly. Jeremy had begun showing remarkable talent in art, and with Alice's encouragement, he began taking a weekend class at Whittemore College to improve his artwork. While on Campus, he came across Gia. After sharing a cup of coffee, they became formerly aqaunited. Instead of being intimidated, Jeremy was impressed that a girl his age was already in College. Coming from the same town, he started carpooling with Gia to get to Art Class. Over a few weeks, he developed a crush on her, while Gia continued seeing him as an innocent little kid.
As the ordinary things went on, danger was still at the front of the group's mind. Even with everyone on the lookout for Noah and Anna, they had not yet been located. Luckily, The Founder's Ball was pleasantly uneventful. Alice was escorted by Damon, Hayley by Tyler, Gia by Jeremy, and Tori by Stefan. Meanwhile Matt, Caroline, Bonnie, and Elena attended as a group. The only thing of note was the Mayor performing an inquisition of Damon upon learning he was his daughter's date. With this, it became more well known by the townspeople that Alice was indeed his illegitimate child.
Another month passed with no sign of vampiric threats. The teenagers attended a Halloween Party as Damon and Alice inflated balloons to surprise Stefan the following morning. Having reconciled a decade prior, Lexi had informed Damon she would be arriving in town before sunrise to celebrate her best friend's birthday. Not wanting to rouse the guests of the Boarding House, Alice consented to Lexi spending the day at her house. After stuffing the 162 balloons into trash bags, Alice and Damon made their way to her home to wait for Lexi's arrival. Around 1am, Hayley stumbled home from the party, gave Alice a kiss on the cheek, and wondered to her bed. Knowing she was home safe, Alice and Damon fell asleep on the couch.
At 5:30am, the pair woke from their short slumber to the doorbell ringing. Together, they rose to greet the guest. As Damon opened the door, Alice grabbed a jewelry box from her curio cabinet and held it firmly in her hand.
"Hi! Welcome, come in." Alice smiled at the blonde. Lexi raised her eyebrows at the easy welcome as she walked through the threshold.
"You must be Alice." Lexi smiled at her host. "Nobody warned me you'd be taller than me." She joked.
"Yeah, I get that a lot. I'm the same height as most guys around here, it intrigues people."
"Well you totally own it." Lexi complimented. "Not to sound picky, but its an hour until sunrise and you have a lot of windows..."
"Yes! I actually have a gift for you!" Alice interrupted her before handing her the jewelry box. Lexi looked at it with surprise. "You may not be aware, but my ancestor is the one that made Stefan and Damon their daylight rings. Knowing how loyal you've been to Stefan and forgiving to Damon, I made these for you and your boyfriend." Alice explained as Lexi opened the box to reveal matching lapis lazuli rings.
"Oh my god! These are real?!" Lexi exclaimed.
"Yup! 60 more minutes and you'll be able to spend as much time in the sun as you want without so much as a sunburn."
"You're amazing!" Lexi cheered as she engulfed Alice in a hug.
After Lexi calmed down, she poured her a glass of bourbon and began explaining dopplegangers and the Original Family.
"Wow. Give me Katherine and I'd beat that bitche's ass, but the Originals? Yikes. There's a big difference between 150 years older and 650." Lexi replied.
"Fortunately, for now, the only vamps in town could easily be taken down by you. Do you think after today you could help us find them and put an end to their obsessions?"
"Little Katherine Followers? Absolutely."
---
As the sun rose, Lexi stuck her hand out to the rays flowing in through the windows. With a smile, she admired the way her skin remained impervious to the natural light. Smirking, she turned to the door and opened it wide as she bathed in sunlight for the first time in three and a half centuries.
"You ready to surprise Stefan?" Alice inquired.
"Definitely."
