Camilla woke up with a quiet groan as she heard footsteps padding into the kitchen and saw Caroline
She sat up to see herself surrounded by Stefan, Elena, Matt, Tyler and Jeremy and followed after Caroline quietly
She walked into the kitchen quietly to hear Caroline say "So, what are you not writing?" to Damon
"Would you believe your mother entrusted me to eulogise her?" Damon told her
"That's nice, I guess." Caroline said as Camilla stood at the doorway not alerting them of her presence yet
"I think she was trying to teach me a lesson about my own mom. I was supposed to do the eulogy at her funeral, and I-" Damon started to say
"We don't have to share." Caroline said cutting him off
"Right. I just mean...today is pretty much going to be the worst day of my life. I'm not sure I need to start it off by bonding with you. No offence." Caroline said
"None taken." Damon assured her
"Great." Caroline said and walked out of the room
"Hey." Camilla said to Caroline as the blonde vampire saw her
"Hey." Caroline spoke quietly
"Today isn't the worst day of your life. Today and tomorrow, it's a cake walk. There'll be petiole around you day in and day out, like they're afraid to leave you alone. The worst day? That's next week. When there's nothing but quiet." Camilla said and Caroline looked down with tears in her eyes "But it gets easier. The longer they're gone the less it hurts and eventually when you think of them there's barely any pain left, just happy memories."

Camilla was walking out of the Salvatore house the next morning after being assigned her job by Caroline for her mother's funeral
Suddenly her phone rang and she groaned loudly
"Whoever it is better not have a death wish." Camilla said while unlocking her car
"It's me." Alaric answered
"Ric. Oh, sorry." Camilla apologised
"It's fine. I was actually calling because I need your help." Alaric told her
"Uh, I really can-" Camilla started to say
"I really need your help!" Alaric begged "Jo, she's sick and I don't know what to do."
"What do you expect me to do?" Camilla asked
"Whatever you girls do." Alaric said questionably
"Do you really think we sit in the bathroom and hold each other's hair back every time we're sick. Sorry to break it to you, that only happens when we're hung over." Camilla explained
