Maria is on her way from gym when she remember she has a history project to do with Elena

Maria:Hey! Is Elena home?
Damon:ah she's on her way,why what's up?
Maria:oh I came to pick her up,we have a history thing to do
Damon:can I get you a drink in the meantime?
Maria:ah a glass of water is fine
Damon:nonsense (gives her a glass of whiskey) drink up
Maria:(laughs) one drink.. (Takes the glass)
Damon stares at her for a while and then goes to get him another drink
Maria doesn't notice the staring...
Maria:oh I wanted to say thank you for the necklace,it's beautiful
Damon:you're most welcome Maria
Maria:Damon is something bothering you?
Damon:(shakes his head) you're very beautiful
Maria:(smiles) thank you Damon

Damon looks at Maria and then smiles at Elena
Damon:yeah she just needed a drink (laughs) the gym is tiring
Maria laughs awkwardly
Elena:well sweetie I'll just get my bag and then we can go
Maria:I'll come with you
Elena:don't be silly,Damon doesn't bite
Maria smiles awkwardly and walks to the door away from Damon

Klaus:Aleksandrina,What brings you here?
Maria:(rushes in) is Elijah here? I have a serious problem
Elijah:what is it?
Maria:is Rebekah here?
Kol:nope she just left
Maria:okay.. (Inhales) my worst nightmare has come alive!
Kol:you finally realized Klaus is the one you love and you don't know how to tell Stefan yeah?
Maria:you're funny
Kol laughs
Klaus:Kol stop it,what is love?
Maria:it's Damon..
Elijah:has he gone off the rails again?
Maria:(shakes her head) he told me he has feelings for me or in his words "I think I'm falling for you"
Klaus:I said this would happen
Kol gets $100 out and gives it to Klaus
Maria:you took a bet?!
Kol:sorry
Elijah:and you don't know what to do because you like him maybe?
Maria:what? No no I'm all for Stefan..I'm confused (pouts) I came here to get away from home
Elijah:okay sit,Kol make some tea
Kol nods and disappears into the kitchen
Klaus:do you want to talk about it?
Maria shakes her head
Elijah:she just came to clear her head..
Klaus nods

Elena:well I hope he's happy with this project,it took us at least 3 hours
Maria:he better be!
They laugh
Caroline:Maria are you okay,you look a bit distracted..
Maria:I'm good (sips water) I'm just really tired

Maria nods and then looks down at her books
Elena:hey..(whispers) are you sure you're okay?
Maria nods

Victoria:I'm stuffed
Eduardo:yeah remind me never to eat like that again!
Isaiah:I'm still hungry
Jeremy:you eat more than that so naturally I'm not even surprised
Isaiah:how's baby Sheila?
Victoria:I love how you say Sheila
Isaiah looks confused
Eduardo:she means the accent Zay
Isaiah:oh
They laugh
Jeremy:she's good,keeps me up at night but she's getting much better,sleeping through the night,waking up the same time as we do
Isaiah:you've basically trained her to sleep when you do and wake up when you do...
Jeremy nods

Damon:Elena?
Elena:yes Damon?
Damon:have you and Maria finished your project?
Elena:yes we have...
Stefan:I however have not,I'm against homework in general,she's coming to help me with mine
Damon:oh
Elena:that was an odd question though,are you okay Damon?
Damon:yes I'm always good baby
Elena laughs
Elena:when Ria gets here,tell her not to leave without seeing me first
Stefan:I think she's staying over tonight anyway
Elena:oh that's perfect then (kisses Damon's forehead) I'll see you later,I'm just going to Bonnie for a while
Maria walks in and takes a deep breath
Elena:oh good,you're staying over?
Maria nods and Elena hugs her
Elena:okay see you when I get back (kisses her cheek)
Maria smiles and it fades when she sees Damon looking at her
Stefan:Hi beautiful,need some help with your bags?
Maria:uh we can bring it in later
Stefan:I'll get it
Maria:Stef... okay then...
Damon:Hi...
Maria:Hi
Damon:how are you?
Maria:are we really going to have an awkward conversation,I haven't said anything if that's what you're thinking
Damon:(shakes head) it's good to see you (smiles) you're staying over tonight?
Maria:it would appear so...
Damon:I'll try my best to behave
Maria:Damon....
Stefan:I'll just leave these in my room,what do you want for dinner? I was thinking Chinese food?
Maria:that sounds good yes...(takes her jacket off)
Damon:I'll get that (he takes her jacket and stands so close,his lips inches away from her neck) you smell good
She stills and he smirks
He walks away and hangs the jacket up
Stefan:(kisses her) I'm glad you're staying over tonight (holds her) we should do this more often
Maria smiles and hugs him
Damon is still looking at her but this time his serious and she wants to run and hide
Damon:Stef will order the food,Maria do you mind helping me in the kitchen?
Maria:(looks at Stefan and smiles) uh no not at all Damon,lead the way (she kisses Stefan once more and follows Damon into the kitchen)
