So, I'm Caroline?

Chapter 28 - Werewolves and The Hybrid

Mystic Grill

Jules is here having a chat with Damon and Alaric, I'm assuming that Rose is at the Boarding House somewhere then and Klaus is hanging around spying. I haven't seen Elijah though, at the moment I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.

Then add in the fact that both Damon and Alaric are pissing off Jules right now, ugh, I suppose I should be happy that no Dinner Parties have taken place yet? Getting up from my booth I make my way towards them.

Putting my hands in my pocket I tilt my head and move in front of Damon slightly "Hello Jules" I say perkily as I hold out my hand to shake her.

"and who are you?" She asks irritably as she turns towards me on the stool while she stares me down.

"Oh, you don't know me." I say with a smile "but I know you."

Jules raises an eyebrow as she looks at me "Do you know where Mason is?"

I smile broadly and clap happily "I do, do you wanna see him? He's spending a little bit of time in a cave nearby today. Exploring and a bunch of that stuff."

"You're human." She says with a frown as she tilts her head.

"and you're a werewolf. Are we done pointing out the obvious or would you like a participation trophy first?" I ask her sarcastically.

"I'm not the human stupid enough to hang around with vampires and werewolves."

"I never once claimed that my intelligence was up to par now did I?" I ask her amused, it's not like I'm going to shout out that I'm a witch of some sort too. That'd just be stupid of me.

She doesn't say anything after that as she sits some money down on the counter and then walks out. Jules glances back at me once and then leaves the Grill. Alaric lets out a sigh and rubs his temples.

"Why do I get a feeling that she's going to be coming after us now?"

We glance at him and shrug, Damon replies with a huff "Why would she? We're wonderful."

I snort in amusement and try to hold back a chuckle of amusement before I burst into giggles, which I do anyways. Damon smirks and shakes his head at me.

Alaric rolls his eyes as he whacks Damon on the back of the head in irritation. "I doubt that she thinks that we're as wonderful as you think we are."

Damon clicks his tongue and rolls his eyes, then he pats Alaric on the back as I watch in amusement "That's because she's not cool like us Rick, it's jealousy."

Alaric glances at me, I snort in amusement as he begins to chuckle and shakes his head as we walk out of the Grill. I was walking to my car when Damon gently wraps his hand around my wrist, I turn towards him but keep my distance.

"I'll be Uh, going." Alaric says as he awkwardly leaves, I look at the ground a bit nervously.

It's hard to talk about this type of thing, we've kind of talked about it but we also ghosted over it and it's difficult. The time seems to quite pass slowly as we stand there a bit awkwardly or maybe I'm the only one standing around awkwardly.

"Maybe we should talk?" He suggests, his tone light and a bit nervous.

I bite my lip in thought "Not here though okay? This is a very . .public place."

Damon nods and lets go of my wrist. I'm guessing that he wouldn't want to have the conversation here either. "But we do need to talk Caroline."

While looking at the ground I rock on my heels a little and I try to hold back the feeling of anxiety. "I know, I know we need to. How about tonight okay?"
