"YOU KNOW, I definitely liked this decade but this music is a huge no," I commented as I took in the decorated gym. I leaned closer to Jeremy, allowing him to wrap his arm around my waist. 

"I don't know, I kind of like it," Jeremy laughed. "it's energetic." He did a small dance as we stepped onto the dance floor, causing a laugh to erupt from my mouth. Suddenly, the music changed into a slow dance.

"Well, I guess we got here at the perfect time," I commented as his hands fell to grip my waist.

"I'd say so," Jeremy said as he pulled me close, my hands moving to rest on his shoulders. We fell silent for a moment, my eyes flickering around the room as I took in the scene. It was nice to be close to Jeremy, to feel his large, warm hands resting on me. Quite honestly, it was nice.

"Do you know what Elena said to me after we finished setting up earlier?" Jeremy asked suddenly, cutting into the silence. 

"What?" I asked, turning my head to look at him. My eyes met his again, a content smile toying at my lips.

"She tried to tell me that I was forbidden from seeing you because you're a Mikaelson and your family only brings misery and terror wherever they go," Jeremy said and I let the smile fall from my lips, a frown replacing it.

"Do you ever think that maybe she's right?"

"No," Jeremy said instantly. "Not at all. I just...wish she'd stop trying to get me to break up with you. I always tell her no, of course, but I was wondering if she'd said anything to you?"

I thought for a moment before shaking my head. "No, she hasn't said anything." 

"That's good," Jeremy nodded, tipping his head down to press a kiss to my forehead. "I told her not to say anything to you unless she wanted to have some issues."

"Wow, my overprotective boyfriend is protecting me from his sister," I teased, a light laugh being shared between us before Jeremy's eyes rested on something over my shoulder. He stayed staring at whatever it was for a moment, before moving his hands from my waste and grabbing my hand.

"Come with me," Jeremy said quietly, tugging me towards the double doors leading to the inside of the school.

"Where are we going?" I asked, allowing him to weave through people, me following close behind me.

"Elena went out this door with Stefan and Damon," Jeremy told me, grunting as he bumped into someone. "Sorry. Uh-" Jeremy froze as the man turned around, giving a glimpse of Bonnie, who was dancing with him. "Hey, Bonnie." My eyes darted between the two as I questioned if anything was still going on. Bonnie awkwardly stared at him for a moment before glancing down at his hand.

"Why are you still wearing your ring?" Bonnie asked worriedly. "Didn't Elena tell you?"

"Yeah, yeah. I know all about Alaric," Jeremy confirmed with a nod. "If my sister stops hanging out with vampires, I'll take it off."
