A New Life That May Include An Imortal Hybrid

Mystic Falls gets some new and old company

Elena was in the Salvatore mansion cleaning up things and anxiously awaiting her cousin Stiles who is supposed to be here any minute now. She was making the lemonade that Stiles loved after all his father died, taking in her cousin she loves, and trying to make his welcoming a happy one. She should have called Caroline she loves Stiles and welcome home, or to your new home in Stiles' place home parties. That's when she hears it, that rusty blue jeep that honestly needs a couple thousand dollars in repairs rolling up the driveway to the Salvatore mansion. Overly excited Elena runs out the door, at a human speed of course, jumping up and down waiting for Stiles to park. The very second he gets out she jumps into his arms and Stiles instantly hugs her back.

"Elena I'm happy to see you and all but what happened to the old place, and how did you afford this place, and ho...."

Cutting him off Elena simply says "It's a friends place, a good friends place, and enough about that how are you holding up. I know we didn't go to the funeral and for that I'm sorry but you know I would've come and got you."

"Elena it's fine and I'll eventually be fine, plus if you drove me how would I get baby down here." Smiling Stiles begins to speak again "So are you gonna show me around the new place or we gonna keep hugging till we sprout grey hair."

"Well if you put it that way, come on." So Elena shows stiles the main floor choosing to leave the dungeon down stairs out of the tour. As expected their are lots of ooo's and ahh's as she shows him the old house ending with the room her and Damon cleaned up for him to use and like all the other rooms it is big, dark, fancy, and has a bathroom attached to it. " I'll give you some time to settle down or unpack. I already called the highschool and you start next week, and yes you may be 18 and legally be old enough to make your own decisions but you will graduate high school and that is final, plus when you do come down stairs there is some of my not so famous lemonade waiting for you."

"Yeah I'll be down in a couple minutes I wanna un pack first, so I'll probobly be down in 10 15 minutes tops." Happy with her reply Elena smiles and leaves him to his room. Making a decision she feels is right she goes down to the vervain stash with plastic gloves and grabs a piece. Going back up stairs she grinds it into flakes and then puts it in the glass she reserves for him. Hearing the front door click open and closed she goes to see Damon at the door smiling she gives him a glass of lemonade that won't burn him from the inside she starts telling him about Stiles.

"Stiles just got here so behave, I mean it Damon he is family and he just lost his dad. I wasn't gonna turn him away, so he stays out of it understand."

"Stiles stays out of what, and you person must be Damon based on the jacket and she is already telling you not to be a hand full." Coming out of nowhere and scaring Elena, Stiles walks up to Damon and sticks out his hand, understanding the gesture Damon shakes back and says

"I think I'm gonna like you kid, lets get you a drink." Walking over to the bar Damon begins to pour himself and Stiles both glasses of a golden brown whiskey.

"Not until the welcome party at the grill later, for now Stiles you can have the lemonade I worked hours over just for you."

"Is that the same lemonade that you bought in powder form and you carelessly poured into a pitcher last night." Damon comments

"I'll have you know it's more than one power flavor so it enhances the flavor.."

"Elena it's fine just go get me a glass already you know I love it either way." Leaving to go in the kitchen Elena makes sure to get the right glass then gives it to Stiles. Taking a sip Stiles starts talking again "Good as always, but what are the grinds of leaves in it."

Panicking for a split second Elena composes her self "Oh that came in the container I think it's some herbal organic thing it's not important." That's when the door slams open especially loud this time with Caroline bursting through heading straight for Stiles and for the second time today the poor teen nearly falls from the stregnth of these girls and their hugs.
