​​​​​​​Season 2: Bad Moon Rising

"Thank for coming, Ric" Damon closes the door behind Alaric. The two of them walk to the living room of the Salvatore house. curled up beside Stefan. Stefan isn't all to happy with how quick Rosalie was to forgive Damon, but after almost losing Damon, it scared her. "Can I get you something to drink? Coffee? Bourbon? Bourbon in your coffee?" Damon chuckles. Alaric crosses his arms.

"Elena mentioned you needed my help" Elena places her mug on the coffee table.

"Yeah, we were hoping you could help shed some light on the Lockwood family" Alaric scrunches up his eyebrows.

"Why would I know anything about the Lockwood's?" Damon sits down next Rosalie.

"Well, you wouldn't. But your dead--not dead vampire wife might" Rosalie rests her head on Stefan's shoulder.

"Isobel's research from when you guys were at Duke together" Elena explains.

"You said that she had spent years researching this town" Rosalie smiles small at Alaric.

"Do you think we could go there? Help us figure out what Tyler is or might be?" Alaric licks his lips.

"The other supernatural human she...researched was a lycanthrope" Rosalie sits up.

"A werewolf?" He nods. Damon shakes his head.

"Nope, nuh-ah. That's too Lon Chaney for me. I've been on this plant a hundred and sixty some odd years, if they exist, how come I've never seen one" He scoffs.

"Damon, think about it. What else could Tyler be? Alaric, could we go to Isobel's office? We don't want to risk anything" Elena sighs. Alaric nods.

"Great, road trip!" Damon smirks.

"Are you sure about this?" smiles. She folds a sweater and tucks into a bag.

"Yes, positive. I think it'll be interesting. Also, I think it'll help me find a way to calm Tyler down" Stefan looks down at the ground.

"Do you forgive him?" Rosalie pauses. She clutches her jeans to her chest.

"No, I don't. I don't think I ever will, but! I can briefly forget about it. He's trying to make it up. He's more gentle and friendlier with me now and seems like he doesn't want to screw up so I'm giving him a second chance" Stefan gets up off the bed and brings Rosalie in for a hug. "I wish you were coming with" Stefan kisses her head.

"Maybe we should wait a couple of days, huh? Wait until Caroline's less of a danger and then I can go with you?" Rosalie smiles. She looks up at Stefan. She caresses his face.

"Thank you for the concern, but we need to go. I'll be safe with Damon and Alaric. They're a fighting duo, despite the fact that they hate each other. Caroline is your top priority right now" Stefan smirks and quickly pins Rosalie to bed.

"You'll always be my first priority, Miss Phoenix" Stefan passionately kisses Rosalie, holding her lower thigh. Rosalie giggles and holds Stefan's cheeks.

A honk outside made the couple pull away. Stefan helps Rosalie off the bed. Stefan folds up the last pair of pants and tucks it into the bag. He zips it up and puts his arm through the strap. The two of them go outside to where Damon is leaning against the car.

"Are you ready Indiana Jones?" Damon smirks. He grabs Rosalie's bag from Stefan, Damon swings around the back to the trunk of Alaric's SUV, throwing Rosalie's bag inside.
