Chapter 9 - "I wouldn't worry about it."

Mariposa had decided to stay with Jehovah again, since halfway through the night she could hear Chris and Thalia at it, and having super sensitive hearing didn't help one bit. So she grabbed a pair of clothes and left hers, just to end up sleeping at Jehovah's. He said he didn't mind, which was great for her as she could actually sleep somewhere without hearing things she didn't want to.

Though, they couldn't decide on who was sleeping on the sofa, so they resulted to sharing the bed, which Mariposa didn't mind, it was only when he appeared there unexpectedly that bothered her. Jehovah didn't mind either since he woke up to Mariposa cuddled into him slightly, it made him think of the old days when they used to be together. Not long after Jehovah left, Mariposa awoke and went straight into the shower as she could hear him making breakfast for the both of them again.

Mariposa got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around her body, and left the bathroom when the doorbell was rung frantically. "I'll get it." Mariposa said since she knew he was at the hob cooking and didn't want him burning his house down because he left the hob to answer the door.

She ran down the stairs and opened the door, with one hand on the door and the other holding the towel in place, to reveal Damon and Stefan Salvatore standing there. "Marie, whose house is this?" Damon questioned her. "Or have you moved? Chris and Thalia said you left last night because...well yeah."

"No, this isn't my house." She told them with a sheepish laugh. "It's Jehovah's."

"Jehovah?" Stefan repeated loudly. "You're not together, are you?"

"No, Stefan, we are not together." She said with a roll of her eyes. "We're just friends. Anyway, why are you here? I'm getting quite cold." The two gave her a deadpan look as they knew she couldn't get cold.

"Well, we've kinda, lost Elena." Damon told her.

"He lost Elena." Stefan added in for her.

"What do you mean you've 'lost Elena'?" Mariposa asked them. "She's a person, how do you loose a person, who was in the cell next to yours much less." She told Damon as Jehovah came behind her.

"They've lost Elena?" He asked her.

"It seems so." She told him. "Talk to them, and I'm gonna go get dressed." She told them before she left to go upstairs and get changed into the change of clothes she brought round last night.

The four of them were in Mariposa's car since it was the only one that could fit them all in since it was another Range Rover that Klaus had gifted to her, the number plate also had '666' on it again, which Jehovah found rather funny.

They all walked into the college and they spotted Aaron sitting down with earphones in his ears as he did some work. Damon and Mariposa sat on ether side of him, and Jehovah sat opposite him while Stefan waited for the guy to run. Damon and Mariposa both pulled out an earphone, and his gaze instantly landed on Mariposa. "Pop quiz." She told him.

"So, you're girlfriend's taken by a mad scientist." Damon said causing the boy to look over at him instead of her. "Now do you: 'A,' get a new girlfriend; 'B,' call the police; or 'C," kill someone close to that mad scientist?"

"I'd definitely go with option C." Mariposa commented from the other side of Damon as she crossed her legs.

"I agree." Jehovah added in as Aaron looked over at him, and he wiggled his fingers in greeting to the human boy with a smirk.

Aaron instantly got up and made a run for it, only for Stefan to stand right in front of him and stop him. "Sit." Stefan told him as he gestured to the sofa with his head, and Aaron looked over to see Damon patting the space between him and Mariposa.
