It has been a week since Kol died. I haven't done much, then just lay in my bed and sleep. Or just watching tv. Rebekah, Jeremy, Bonnie, Damon, Stefan and Elena are looking for the cure with Shane. The only reason I hope they find it is for Rebekah, and for Care if she ever wants to take it. I don't care if Elena needs to stay a vampire for the rest of her life. I have no idea where Nik is, and Care left. I think it's time for me to leave the house. I haven't been outside since last week. Besides, I can use a change. 

I've bought some new clothes. Buying clothes is like therapy. I enter the hairdresser's. "Good afternoon, do you have an appointment?" The woman behind the counter asks. "Hi, no I don't have an appointment." "Ow, that's okay, we have enough space. Take a seat." She says pointing to a chair. "So what do you wanna do?" "I want to dye my hair." "Which colour?" "Dark brown." 

I get out of my car and grab the bags. I also bought some new make-up, and another pair of heels. I love it. I put my key in the lock and I open the door. I enter the living room, with my hand full of bags, where Nik and Care are having a conversation. "Hey Nik." I say as I put down the bags. "Aurora.." Care says. "You look.. different." She says. "Well I thought it was time for a change." "I see." She says. "Do you not like it?" "Oh no, I do, I was just surprised, that's all." She says and she makes eye contact with Nik.

 "Well I'm gonna go to my room, and I'm gonna unpack these bags." I say and I leave the living room with all my bags. As I enter my room I realize I forgot my jacket, and I go back downstairs. Just before I enter the living room, I overhear their conversation and I hide behind the door. "This is her way of suppressing her emotions." Care says. "Really? Maybe she just wanted to dye her hair." "I don't think so, it has to do with your brother." Care replies and I go back upstairs. I may not be a vampire, but I'm not deaf.

I'm in the fantasy forest, again. But honestly, I don't really care about finding out what I am right now. Although it's probably a good thing since it will keep my mind off the... situation. I walk the usual path until I arrive at the gazebo, why can't I just wake up there? Miss Antoinette is standing in the gazebo, waiting for me.

This is the first time I'm seeing her while I'm sleeping, the other times it was because I had passed out. "Hello dear, how are you." Stupid question. "Hi miss Antoinette." I decide not to answer the usual question. I mean, everyone asks that question but who actually wants to hear the answer? It's more like a formality.

"It's good to see you while you're not hurt or passed out." Miss Antoinette says and I smile. "Well, since you're just sleeping, and no one's waiting for you, we have a little bit more time. Time for your questions." Miss Antoinette says.

"What am I, or are we?" I ask. "Well that, my dear, is a rather interesting question. Centuries ago I was born, the first Beaufort. I couldn't use my magic, just like every other Beaufort." "Wait how can you be born, and be the first Beaufort?" I question in confusion. 

"Let me put it in a different way. I wasn't exactly born, I just appeared. It's difficult to explain. Anyway, I couldn't use my magic until my eighteenth birthday. I did realise I was a witch, since I grew up in a witchy town. For me it was difficult since I didn't have a me, I was the first Beaufort, so no one could explain. But there was also some knowledge I just got, since I was a baby."

"Okay that is confusing." I reply. "I was born with that knowledge, otherwise I would never find out what I was." "Well what were you, or better asked, what am I?" "You, Aurora, are an angel." "That is really sweet, but seriously, what am I?" I ask. "I am serious dear, you're an actual angel. Or actually, you were an angel."
