I'm in the school parking lot with Elena and we see Stefan pull up in his red car, and gets out wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket, and takes his sunglasses off as we walk over to him. "Nice car." She says, smiling at him and he smiles back at us. "Thought it was a waste to leave it in the garage." He says and they share a kiss. "I didn't know you were coming back today." I say. "You know, I woke up this morning and I was feeling great and I figured it was time for me to get back into things." He says. "Does that mean you're okay now, with all the cravings?" Elena asks. "Yeah, I mean the worst part is over so.. now all I want to do is just spend as much time with you as possible. And maybe videogames or something with Adam." He says and I give a small laugh. "Do I look like Jeremy?" I ask and they both laugh. "I'm okay with you spending time with me." She says and they share another kiss. "And me. Except I'm not kissing you." I say and smile at him. "Hey, thank you for helping me get through-- the rough patch. Both of you." He says. "You're welcome. We're gonna be late." I say. "Ok, uh, you know what? I'll catch up with you, I'm gonna grab my stuff. I'll be right behind you guys." He says. "Ok." Elena says and we walk off into the school.

I'm in history class with Elena and the other students as we see Stefan walk in and Alaric behind him, and they both walk to their desks. "Okay, this week we're gonna set outside our regular curriculum for a lesson in local history as we approach Founders' Day. Apparently the community leaders feels it's more important than World War two. But hey, what do I know?" Alaric asks and we see Bonnie walk in and close the door behind her with her left hand. "Sorry I'm late." She says. "Well, it looks like we will be at full occupancy today. Welcome home, Bonnie." Alaric says and Bonnie goes to her seat.

I'm in the school Cafetiria as Carol Lockwood is teaching us how to dance for the Miss Mystic Falls and they've signed me up as a backup in case one of the escorts gets sick, and so is Tyler. "Honor your partner." Carol says and we bow or kirsty at our partner. "Stay focus, right hand around." She says and we all raise our right hand, and start dancing around each other as 'Blue Danube' turns on. "Flirt with your eyes." She says and Tyler and I squint at each other. "Left hand around." She says and everyone switches hands. "This is ridiculous." Elena and I say at the same time as her and I are next to each other. "Both hands." Carol says and we raise both hands. "You're only saying that because you don't know how to do it." Stefan says. "Sorry only one of us knows how to dance professionally." Elena says. "Ouch." Tyler says and the four of us all laugh, and Stefan spins her and dips her. "No! No! There's no touching during this part. It's about the simple intimacy of the near touch." Carol says, walking over to them and they get back into position, and she walks over to Amber. "Very nice, Amber." She says. "Thank you, Mrs. Lockwood." Amber says. "If you ask me, the 'near touch' is overrated." Stefan says. "I can't believe you made out with Matt's mother." I say to Tyler. "Yeah, I was drunk. And a dick. And now my mother has made me join part in this whole equality part of the whole dance thing to show that this town supports the LGBT Community." He says. "So that's her plan." I say and roll my eyes and he chuckles. "Is that a bad thing? Would you prefer me to be brooding and tortured?" Stefan asks. "Hey, I'm not complaining." Elena says and moves closer, and he holds his hands up in self defense. "Oh, no touching." He says and she playfully points an accusing finger at him with her right index finger.

I'm walking out of the Cafetiria with Elena and Stefan and we walk over to see Bonnie and Caroline. "Bonnie. Hey." Elena says. "Hey. How are you?" Stefan asks and there's a small pause. "I begged Bonnie to fill in for Matt, he had to work today." Caroline says and we look at her, and nod. "Bonnie, do you have a minute?" Elena asks. "We only have thirty minutes for rehearsal." Bonnie says. "It'll only take a minute. Please?" Elena asks and I follow her and Bonnie out of the room. "Bonnie, you have to tell us or at least me what's wrong." Elena says. "It's not worth talking about." Bonnie says. "What do you mean not worth it? You barely said ten words to me and Elena and you won't even look at Stefan. Is that what it is? Is it Stefan?" I ask and she sighs. "Listen. Elena, Adam, I can't just pretend that everything's okay. Everything my Grams did was to protect us from those vampires in the tomb. And now they're out which means she died for nothing." She says. "I'm so sorry, Bonnie." Elena says and Bonnie nods. "What can I do to make it better?" Elena asks. "That's just did, there's nothing you can do. I blame him, Elena, Adam, him and Damon and I'm not gonna put you in a situation, Elena, where you have to choose sides. I'm just having a hard time with it, okay?" She asks.
