ENOCH TALKED ABOUT HIS FEELINGS so why the fuck hasn't his problems vanished? Isn't that what happens in the movies? So why the fuck is he still seeing shit? And why is his emotions still switching faster then Elena Gilbert's decision on the Salvatore brothers? He's okay for a week, then he's living on cloud nine for two, then he's depressed for three. It doesn't make any damn sense and Ingrid's about ready to send him to a therapist against his will. Enoch has tried to tell her that there's no way that it would do any good because of all the supernatural shit surrounding his life. What's he supposed to say, "When I was fourteen my brother had a mental break and tried to kill his siblings, even succeeded with a few, because he wanted to be the leader of our coven." That's a sure way to get thrown into an insane asylum. Ingrid just rolled her eyes when he said that.
"You better not ram me into a tree," Enoch said.
Ingrid scoffed, "Don't be so dramatic."
Enoch is being led through the woods with a blindfold on and he has no clue where this is going. They've been walking for a little bit and he's getting a little tired. Luckily Ingrid has decided that here's a good place to stop. Wherever here is.
"Okay. I'm gonna take your blindfold off in three, two, one!" She yanked it off and he opened his eyes to a bunch of people.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!" they all yelled with Caroline standing at the front.
Enoch smiled at everyone and then whispered, "Who are these people?"
"Random people ready to party," Ingrid replied. Before he could reply Caroline came running up to him.
She gave him a hug, "Happy Birthday, Enoch!"
"Thank you, Honey Bunches of Oats!" She gave him a weird look, but kept on smiling.
Enoch's leaning against a tree watching Ingrid talk to Rebekah, when someone grabs his hand and pulls him a little farther into the woods.
He looks at the assailant and smiles, "Hey Kitty Kat. What are you doing here?"
"I came to see my boy on his birthday," she replied, but he can tell she's hiding something. He's not gonna push though because it's none of his business.
"Hey," she says putting her arm around him and turning him to point at a boy, "Bet you can't get into his pants."
Enoch smirked, "You're on."

Needless to say Enoch did, in fact, get into his pants and Katherine owes him 20 bucks. She had to go though, so Enoch knows he's probably not going to get his money. Ingrid told him about her talk with Rebekah. It turns out Rebekah didn't sleep with Damon, Enoch wouldn't have blamed her if she did though because damn, and Rebekah wants to go to Homecoming with her. As friends or more it is unknown. Matt looked a little bummed because Tyler told him to ask her and now he has no one. Enoch felt bad and told him that they could hang out if he wanted and Matt agreed.
Which leads them here in Ingrid's bedroom listening to the weirdest playlist. One minute they're listening to Fergalicious and then the next they're listening to Lying is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off. At one point Northern Downpour came on and they had to turn it off because Enoch was getting emotional over Panic!'s split. They somehow finished getting ready though and they looked fucking fantastic. They were at the Grill so they could meet there respective dates. Only it's been 20 minutes and Rebekah hasn't shown up.
They are seated at a table and Matt said to Ingrid, "You know what? Order whatever you want, I'll pay for it."
"Thank you," she said with a smile.
Enoch leaned over to her when Matt was distracted and said, "I told you. He would treat you right." Ingrid chuckled softly.
They leave to go to the school and Rebekah still hasn't shown up. Ingrid looked closer and closer to tears. Enoch gets angrier and angrier. Matt looks awkwarder and awkwarder. The school is flooded when they get there and they find Caroline talking to Elena about it being relocated to Lockwood Manor.
"So which Salvatore is her date tonight?" Enoch asked.
"Neither. She's going solo," Caroline replied, looking a little upset about this.
Enoch had an idea, "Hey Matt. I know is probably really uncomfortable for you, so you can go be Elena's night in shining armor if you'd like."
Matt lit up and nodded, "Thank you," he said.
"Nah," Enoch said, swiping a hand through the air, "No problem." and with that Matt left.
"You guys are still coming to homecoming, right?" Caroline asked.
Enoch and Ingrid shared a look, "Umm. I don't know, Care," Enoch said.
"Please. You have to!" Caroline begged.
Enoch and Ingrid stared at each other for a minute silently talking about it before Enoch sighed, "Fine."
Caroline clapped, "Great!"

So as it turns out this is more of a Klaus' party then homecoming which Enoch is not complaining about because 1. Alcohol, 2. He gets to confront Klaus about Rebekah flaking. He doesn't get to down number two though because Ingrid won't let him. So they dance and drink and talk and drink and mope and did he mention drink? Then shit hits the fan when some dude named Mikael shows up and him and Klaus starts arguing.
As it turns out Elena isn't Elena it's Katherine, this is an elaborate scheme to kill Klaus. It doesn't work. Mikael, who is Klaus' dad, dies instead. It's a whole mess and Enoch has had way too much alcohol to process it. After it all calmed down Klaus sat on his step and stared at the body for a bit. Enoch decided to sit down next to him.
"How ya doing, buddy?" Enoch asked. Ingrid came up and sat on the other side.
Klaus chuckled, "As you saw I just killed my father. How do you think I'm doing?"
"Well?" Enoch asked, "He was trying to kill you so I don't think you're doing too badly."
"It's a bit more complicated then that, mate." They sat there for a while longer talking about things that didn't really matter to try and distract him. They don't know whether or not they succeeded, but they tried. And that's all that matters. Right?
AN: So I discovered a bit of a problem. When I was writing this I was looking at the days that they aired to try and get a feel on when they take place. This didn't work out to well because Enoch's birthday is October 27th which is why I wrote it when I did. I then found out that the episode for Caroline's birthday was aired in January but her birthday is October 10th. So that's a bit of an issue. So it probably doesn't even matter that much and you guys wouldn't have even noticed if i hadn't told you when his birthday was but I've come to the conclusion that enoch is a scorpio (ingrid's a pisces) so i wanted that to work. i'm sorry please act like this isn't fucked up. i don't wanna rewrite this whole chapter because i'm in a writing mood and i wanna keep writing but i know if i rewrite it im not going to continue writing and it's going to be forever until i publish another chapter.
