"If I help you then you need to help me."
Alec looks at me confused.
"Which is?"
"Promise to be on my side."
He looks almost offended that I even asked him that.
"Why wouldn't I be?" He asks. "I mean I know you broke up with me but, Aurora, I would never help someone try to kill you."
I admitted to Alec what really happened to Bonnie. And what's been happening. I didn't want his pity but he could genuinely help me.
I know he still loves me and I do too just not in the same way. I know he doesn't want to see me hurt.
"You're scared."
"I'm not scared." I say. "I just don't lose anyone else that I care about."
I'm not scared of battle. It's the whole reason my mother trained me to master my magic. I needed to be prepared for a war if it were to come for me.
However, I am scared of losing more people that I love. Even though Bonnie may technically be alive right now, it's not to say that she won't be killed again.
And Davina's death will haunt me for the rest of my life. I know it will. I could've prevented it had I actually paid attention to her instead of ignoring her.
Our last full conversation was about how I hated her. I didn't mean it, I just wanted to hurt her. Now that conversation haunts me.
"I gotta go.. Lizzie is waiting on me."
I walk outside. Lizzie is already in my car. I already considered Lizzie to be my sister. Having this time together has brought us even closer after being apart for years.
Davina's death brought us closer. She loved her as much as I did. We both lost family. And that's what Lizzie is. Family.
"How'd the talk go with Alec?"
I told her earlier that I was going to talk to him. He's been bugging me about the whole Derek thing and kind of let up after Davina's death.
I won't let her death bring me down more. It's changed my insight on some things. She told me now to be the villain they are wanting me to become. I'm gonna try not to.
"I told him I'd help him only if he helps me."
"And I'm guessing he agreed?"
She knows as well as I do that Alec still holds love for me. It's obvious. He'll get over it eventually.
"Yeah.."
"You know you can't shut Allison out."
My talk with Agatha opened my eyes. A Bardin and a Valet always make their way to one another in every lifetime. It's probably why she felt so familiar. Because I have met her in another life.
"I really can't. We literally share the same sister."
"Yeah, that's kind of weird. It's not like incest, right?"
"No because Scott is not directly related to Allison." I say. "And ew don't say that."
"I'm just asking. It's just weird they both share the same sister."
It is kind of weird but Scott and I aren't directly related to Allison. It's confusing and took a while to wrap my head around it.
Our mother had a child with Chris Argent. Which in itself is so fucking weird. So, technically we're not related to the Argents, it's only Olivia.
