"Thank you," Calista says to the driver of the car who opened my door for her.

San Francisco, a perfect place to hide from an Original. This city is always bustling so no one will even notice that she is here.

It's perfect.

"Miss Mikaelson?" The driver questions to get her attention. She hums in response and looks at the city in awe, "Would you like to take a trip to Los Angeles tonight?"

"Of course, Raphael," Calista responds and glances over at him. His espresso colored skin glistens in the sunshine from the sweat, "When do we leave?"

"Now, Miss Mikaelson," Raphael answers and reopens her door for her before getting into the drivers seat.

"If we were just gonna leave, why'd we get out in the first place?" She questions.

"I was tired of being in the car, but now I'm ready to drive," Raphael says as he turns up the radio in the car. She shakes her head with a grin on her face.

"What shall we do in Los Angeles?"

"Drink," Raphael answers with a grin causing her to roll her eyes, "Miss Mikaelson, we will simply enjoy our time while we can."

"Calista," She corrects him with a smile, "And I guess your right."

"When am I ever wrong?"

"Here we are, Miss Mikaelson," Raphael says as he stops the car. She peers out the window at the bar that looks quite beautiful. She sighs and grabs her door handle to let herself out.

"Meet you inside?"

He nods as Calista steps out of the car. The car drives off to go park as she walks up the pathway in her small heeled shoes. She pushes open the glass door open and she can feel eyes on her.

Her sleeveless white dress ends just above her knees and covers her whole chest. Calista's natural red hair is pulled into a tight bun and the bun contains the tight curls. She smooths her dress out with her white gloved hands before taking a seat at the bar.

She fiddles with the golden heart locket that's clasped around her neck.

"My, aren't you stunning," A raven haired man smirks as he sits down next to her. She glances over at him and rolls her eyes.

"My," She mocks with a grin, "Aren't you a flirt?"

"I pride myself with my good looks and charm," He responds with a wink and she chuckles and lets her necklace rest her chest once more.

"How about I buy you drink?" He offers.

Calista looks over at him with a polite smile, "I do not let men that I do not know their names buy me drinks."

"Damon," He says with a smirk, "Salvatore."

"Well, Mr Salvatore, I would love a drink," She responds and begins to play with locket around her neck again. It's a habit she has developed over the centuries.

"What might your name be?" Damon asks as he hands her a drink.

"Miss Mikaelson," Raphael says to get her attention, "Are you ready to go for a walk?"

"Miss Mikaelson," Damon repeats and she raises an eyebrow at him, "What's your first name?"

"Thank you for the drink, Mr Salvatore,"

"Wait," He says and grabs her wrist before she can walk away with Raphael, "Will I seen you again?"

"Possibly," She responds with a wink before linking her arm with Raphael's.

"I leave you alone for a couple of moments," Raphael starts causing her to roll her eyes as they walk down the street, "And men are already swooning over you."

"I must admit that man was extremely attractive," She admits with a smile, "But the ring on his finger suggested he was a vampire."

"So?" Raphael asks, "You're an Original."

"That's besides the point, Raphael!" She says as he opens her car door for her. Calista slides into the back seat and Raphael stands by the door.

"Miss Mikaelson," Raphael starts with a small frown, "You have been running for forty years, I think its time to enjoy life. I know you miss them and I know you miss him but you must move on. You must live your life while you can before it's too late, miss."

"I'll take it under consideration," She responds as he closes the door. She watches the stars as they make our way back to San Francisco.

Authors Note:

I know it's really short, but this is a little back story about Calista and Damon.

The next ones will be much longer.
