_____________
Y/N was a witch , a few years younger than Elena and one of Jeremy's frinds. Y/N didn't like to practice and tried her best to stay out of it instead of the middle of it. None of her friends however believed that she could protect herself and they kept treating her like a procelan doll. She understood why her friends were being so over protective , specially with everything they've had to deal with over the years - vampires , witches , hybrids , original vampires , travellers ... and now Kai. Damon was a little freaked out when he learned Kai had got out and since Kai was a siphon and didn't have his own magic , everyone were afraid if he finds out about Y/N , he'd go after her , siphon her magic and kill her. Over the past few days Damon had been over to her house in Grove Hill more than a few times , trying to get her to stay home and to tell her how dangerous Kai is.
"I am not afraid of him , Damon !" she nearly screamed for what seemed the 100th time this week.
"I know you are not , but he is dangerous ... So for now , stay at home. Don't invite anyone in. You will be safe there." Damon said , his tone making it clear it was not up for discussion.
Y/N sighed and sat on the stairs. "Fine. I'll stay here." she gave up , "But I won't be a prisoner in my own home. I still have school..and honestly if I get stuck between four walls for more than a few days , things will get ugly and Kai will be the least of your problems."
Damon sighed. Y/N was strong and stubborn as Hell , sometimes he forgot about it and just saw a young fragile girl who needs protection.
"OK , Y/N ... " he gave up. "I'll have Caroline come pick you up in the morning , take you to school and then someone will go pick you up after ... ..."
Y/N smiled and hugged Damon.
"Thank you... for being the big brother I never had." , then she turned around and walked inside , leaving Damon alone on the porch.
A few days passed ...
Caroline came to pick her up , drove her to Grove Hill High School and then took her back home every day. She was a fun person to be around. On the way to school they'd blast music in the car loudly , singing along then go get some coffee. Even tho Caroline had a lot to deal with at the moment , she always found time for fun things to do with Y/N.On the fifth morning things turned horribly wrong.
Y/N woke up , got ready for school and waited for the doorbell to ring. When that happened that morning and she opened the door , it wasn't Caroline who was standing in the doorframe.
"Nice house." the boy said. He was tall , chiseled jaw with brown hair and blue eyes. For a moment she felt her knees go weak but recovered fast.
"Who are you ?" Y/N asked confused. The boy standing in front of her was a complete stranger , yet he acted as if they had known each other for years.
"Oh , sorry... Manners. Hi , I'm Kai." he said outstretching his hand to shake hers.
So this is Kai , Y/N thought to herself. He was hot and didn't look that dangerous at all.
Kai kept starring at her.
"Aren't you going to invite me in ?" he said.
"I'm Y/N , and no." Y/N said plainly , grabbing her backpack and going outside , locking the door behind her. "I am late for school. I assume you are not here to walk me there ... are you ?" she asked curious.
"Not really." Kai said , a smirk showing on his face. "I actually came to see who it is everyone is ready to do anything to protect." he said , walking with her down the street. "I assume you are not a vampire ? You are a human."
Y/N stopped abruptly and turned to face him.
"Look , Kai. I know the others are scared of you for some reason. Honestly ... to me you seem like a nice guy." she said , pausing for a minute. "Whatever dissagreement or whatever you have with Damon or Bonnie or whoever .... leave me out of this. It's my senior year. I have enough to worry about as it is."
Kai looked surprised and amused at this girl. Something about her ... she wasn't like the rest of them. He couldn't understand why the Salvatores were so over protective , she looked fragile but ... clearly wasn't.
"OK." he simply said to her after a few minutes. "Can I walk you to school then ?"
Y/N looked at him , then looked down the street. There was no sight of Caroline and she was going to be late.
Y/N took out her phone and typed in a text message to Caroline :
'Hey , Care. I'm not feeling well today , think I might be coming down with something. I'll be OK. Call you later.' and clicked sent.
Kai was looking amused.
"Did you just lie to Caroline ?" he asked , laughing. "I'll admit , I didn't see that coming."
"Maybe..." Y/N said , trailing off. "If you want to walk me to school today , we had to be alone ... or else who knows what would've happened." Y/N smiled and started walking down the street leaving Kai a few steps behind her completely taken off guard. A moment later Kai ran up for a second to catch up with her.
That same afternoon when Y/N's classes were over and she walked outside , she saw him again. Kai was sitting on one of the benches in the school front yard. Y/N sighed and walked towards him.
During their walk to school today , she had gotten to know him better. Y/N saw something in him , she couldn't quite figure out what it was but it made her think that maybe there is good in him and eventually that good could balance out the bad , if he was given a chance.
Y/N sat next to him on the bench , looking straight ahead.
"Did you stay here this whole time ? " she asked , turning to face him.
Kai turned around and smiled at her. It wasn't his usual arrogant smile. There was none of that now.
"I had forgotten what school feels like." was all he said. "It's so funny how everyone is running around campus... or sitting somewhere with their noses stuck in a textbook." He laughed. His laugh making her laugh.
"Come on " she said. "I want to show you something."
They walked for a while , reaching the cemetery. Going straight throught it and into the forest. Kai didn't say a word to her , but she could feel his eyes burning into her back. After about 30 minutes of walking in silece he finally spoke.
"Where are we going?"
Y/N turned around to face him , "Just a little bit further. Can't you hear it?"
"Hear what ?" he asked curious.
"The waterfall." Y/N smiled and took his hand. Kai looked at her confused but just shrugged his shoulders and went along with it.
Y/N couldn't explain it but a part of her was starting to trust him already. He had had a chance to hurt her earlier and he hadn't. It was curiousity that brought him to her door that morning... and now she was curious about him.* * *A few days later Y/N called in sick again. Kai had shown up early in the morning at her door.
"Why are they so over protective of you?" Kai asked her. He kept wondering about that. There had to be a reason why they'd all go through so much trouble to keep her off his radar.
Y/N hesitated for a moment. A part of her was scared what Kai might do if he found out.
"Do you want some breakfast ? " she changed the subject and headed to the kitchen. Kai following her closely behind. "Eggs or pancakes?" Y/N asked.
Kai studied her for a moment , resting against the kitchen's door frame.
"How about ... I make breakfast and you answer my question." he said , moving to the stolve.
"Fine." Y/N said , a loud sigh following before she continued. "I know Jeremy. You know , Elena's little brother. We were kind of a ... thing." she lied.
Kai glanced at her for a moment before speaking.
"Crinkle." he said.
"What ?" she asked confused.
"When you lie , you always get a crinkle." he said simply.
Y/N was actually amazed he had picked up on her tells so fast. They had barely spent a few days together.
"No , I don't." Y/N lied again.
"There it is again ..." Kai said a smirk on his face, nearly done with the pancake dough. "I could've killed you the moment I met you a few days ago. I could've killed you about a dozen times since. Including 15 minutes ago when I walked inside." he said , already starting to make the pancakes.
Y/N shifted uncomfortable in her seat. That was true , she couldn't been dead the moment he had stepped through the door. She spent the next few minutes watching Kai flipping pancakes in the air.
"Why won't you tell me? It can't be that bad." Kai said , flipping another pancake in the air , the pancake landing perfectly in her plate.
"I'll tell you. ... when you are done flipping the pancakes. It's distracting." she said indiferently.Nearly five minutes later Kai had flipped the last pancake and they were about to have breakfast together. He sat next to her , looking at her expectantly while pouring maple syrp all over and eating his pancakes.
"Those are really good." Y/N said. "You have some pretty awesome pancake skills ... I like that."
"Quit stalling." he said suddenly serious.
There was something in his eyes , he was starting to get impatient.
"Fine. I'm stalling." Y/N said pausing for a moment before leaning in closer to him. "I am a witch." she whispered.
Kai's eyes widened in a surprise and he reached to grab her wrist. His hand glowing red where he was touching her skin. Y/N flinched a little but didn't try to escape or push him away. A second later he let go off her hand. Kai laughed for a moment.
"Yes , I am a witch.... but I don't practice." Y/N said taking another bite of her pancakes. "They were afraid you might siphon my magic and / or kill me."
Kai studied her face. She wasn't lying but there was something else that surprised him.
"Why aren't you running away?" he asked. "It was so easily for me to grab your wrist and siphon your magic ... what makes you think I won't do that again?"
"Because ..." she said ".. unlike the rest of them , I don't hate you. In truth ... I actually kind of like you." Y/N said refusing to meet his eyes. "You are actually a fun company. Plus if you want my magic - go ahead , I don't use it much anyways."
Kai grabbed her wrist again , not siphoning just to make her look at him.
"If it makes you feel any better... I don't hate you either. If I did , we wouldn't be having pancakes right now.
