Ezekiel was summoned to the Salvatore Boarding house days later.

"You called, I came,"he said as he pushed open the door to the boarding house at Stefan's request.

Nobody answered him as he walked in, looking around for any signs of the people who were home. His ears perked at sounds and he entered the dining room, blurring to Elena's side and shoving Vicki away from her.

"Watch where you put your hands,"he folded his arms as Elena coughed and gasped for air.

He glared at Vicki who gazed at him with challenging eyes.

"Whatever,"Vicki rolled her eyes and walked away.

"You are very bold in a house full of vampires,"he turned to Elena.

"Stefan was here,"she said and regained her composure.

"Well, where is he?"he questioned.

"What happened?"Stefan walked into the dining room and set the cup down, nearing Elena.

"Out of anyone Damon could've turned, he picked that stoner bitch? She gets on my nerves all the time,"Ezekiel groaned and grabbed the cup.

He brought it up to his nose and scrunched it.

"What is this? Rabbit? Deer?"he shook his head.

"I was teaching her to control her urges, like I did,"Stefan explained.

"She's too... impulsive and it's heightened. Think of Damon but way less controlled,"Ezekiel said.

"This,"he brought the cup up to their eye level.

"Isn't going to work. She'll lose control and I didn't kill your brother, so what makes you think I wanna be killing Matt's big sister?"

"I can't be here, I need some air,"Elena shook her head and walked out of the room.

Stefan heaved out a sigh.

"How is she handling it?"Ezekiel questioned and turned to the door slamming shut.

"It's still a lot for her,"Stefan folded his arms.

"Yeah... I see the way she looks at me now,"he shook his head.

"I'm gonna go check on her."

He headed for the door and Ezekiel was left alone.

"Vicki?"he called out.

He continued to stroll around the house and stopped at framed pictures of the three siblings.

"Whatchu looking at?"Damon leaned against the wall with his arms folded.

"You have a sister,"Ezekiel said and pointed to a picture.

"Yeah, haven't seen her around in awhile,"Damon shrugged.

"Ella loves traveling. You can never find her in one place, it was... Good for her,"he nodded and grabbed the picture.

"We're fine here. You should go."

"Putting you and Stefan together doesn't seem like a good idea with a newbie vampire running around your house,"Ezekiel frowned and turned to him.

"She'll be fine, it's still daylight,"Damon waved him off.

"You owe me a new bike,"Ezekiel said.

"Do I?"Damon frowned as his lips curled into a grin.

"I have no idea,"he shrugged and walked away whistling an old tune.

Ezekiel returned back into his little apartment and let out a sigh as his body crashed down onto the comfort of his bed.

His eyes opened at the sound of the doorbell.
