" Well . You don't have to be , if you don't wanna be . Alone , I mean . You can stop by my dorm room anytime . I'll be waiting . Gummy bears . Lots of gummy bears . " Grace did not know why she had said that . Because a part of her always thought she'd be waiting for him to come by ? He didn't seem like the guy that had hurt her . Whatever reason that was for , it wasn't good . Grace knew it just made her want to be closer to him . She looked away . Cheeks heating up . " You know what I mean . " That he was always welcome ? Did he ? Know that ?

why did he say it. embarrassing. logan didn't know how to act around her. she made him nervous ❝ oh um.. thank you? neither do you. i mean.. yeah. nobody has to be ❞ a nervous laugh escaped his lips ❝ you will be waiting? which number is it on your door? so i don't knock on the wrong door ❞ again ― this time he must remember the right number. she still lived in a dorm room. he wonders if she still lived with someone. logan had managed to find an apartment in dc, but could not move in yet. they needed to fix it first and in the meantime he lived at a motel ❝ you live there alone? of course, i'd love to come by and eat gummy bears, maybe watch a movie or two. yes, i know what you mean ❞

" Ah . I knew it was you . Camille O'Connell . And so , we meet again . " There were few people in the world that Aurora detested as much as she did , the woman in front of her . It was because of Camille that her brother had been trapped . Niklaus had chosen this insipid woman over her , plenty of times . The detestation had grown to hate . Aurora had woken up here , and there it was . Perhaps more towards her than towards the rest of the Mikaelsons . " I'm surprised to see that you don't have Niklaus holding your hand and guiding your through this new and mysterious realm . How did you manage to do it yourself , I wonder ? "

her eyes widened. it could not be. the woman she had dreamed about ❝ it's you !! ❞ she said, almost screaming, stepped back from aurora. didn't know her name or why she was dreaming about her ❝ LOOK , i have no idea who you are or how you know my name. but i feel like i have met you before, your face is familiar ❞ too familiar. was she the vampire who had turned her? ❝ i have no idea who niklaus is. nor do i know what you are talking about. why should i not manage to do it myself? i am capable of taking care of myself very well ❞

"Dopplegangers? Really? Holy shit, this is insane." Louise admitted, giving a nod. "Oh my gosh, when my brother and sister get here, we totally have to prank them. My brother is totally gullible at whatever we tell him."

❝ yeah! guess we are ❞ it was a lot to take in. could almost be like a sibling she never had. kiara covered her mouth and chuckled ❝ sounds really bad to prank someone. i am up for it. oh? is there anything i could do or say to trick him? i'm kiara, by the way, but please call me kie ❞

Roger smiled when he saw her again. Brianna. The woman with whom he had some sort of unexplainable connection. "Ye have a beautiful voice." He complimented when she pulled her headphones down. "It's good to see ye too, love. How are yer children?" He asked, sitting down next to her. He still had desire to be near her. It was as if the universe pulled them together. "Ye know... I've been dreaming about ye."

oh gosh, he heard her. brianna blushed and laughed nervously ❝ was not meant someone would hear it ❞ she told him with a smile ❝ not really, but thank you. i only sing for my little boy when i am trying to force him to sleep ❞ she explained ❝ they are good, thank you for asking. it's a bit much for them at school, i am telling them it's part of life. helping them a lot too with school work ❞ she wasn't sure why she told him. their last meeting had felt a bit awkward ❝ dreaming about me? WHY ? ❞

Ellen stepped into their townhome and closed the front door behind her. "Brian, are ye home? I have a surprise for ye." She called, making her way into the dining room where she saw him sitting with his laptop. She placed a large cake box on the table in front of him, filled with a dozen cupcakes. "I got ye cupcakes from that bakery ye like." She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. "What're ye lookin' at, mo chridhe?"

brian didn't get the time to answer, until she was in the dining room. he glanced up at her as soon as her arms were wrapped around his neck ❝ ye ken me too well, el ❞ he smiled. opened the box, took out a cupcake. she did know him well ❝ searchin' for other jobs. not easy. i do not know what i am good at. i have as well looked at classes, perhaps can i start to study ❞ he knew he could not quit his current job until he had a new one. well, maybe he could, but he did not want ellen to take care of the whole household.

"I completely understand what you mean." Freya remarked. "That's how I feel about Keelin. She's the love of my life." Even though it was hard being apart from her, it felt good to talk about her. It made their distance seem less. "I'm glad you two are happy, I don't think age matters with true love."

❝ i am glad to hear that. i don't think i have meet keelin. still have to meet the whole family. not sure if i will ever be ready for it. but maybe keelin i would not be afraid to meet ❞ he smiled ❝ i am sure she will come to the city too soon, or i hope so for you. no, i don't think it does either, even though some people might disagree ❞

"that could also be an option. but hey, keep showing off, be the best and they might change the captain position." if the coach sees someone working their ass off, it might pay off at some point. "i've never been captain or anything but i did come here on a scholarship and got put into the college team which was very different from what i was used to back home. and had to obviously show off my skills and work my ass off to earn a spot on the team." it wasn't easy as college level hockey was very different from high school. "well yeah. if he's not doing a good job, he should be told so. but that's just me. i'm just a pretty straightforward guy. or if you don't want to risk anything, could always point him in the right direction, kind of help him out a little." shrugging, he understood that not everyone would be so blunt. "always welcome to try out. any good on the ice?"

james brows raised ❝ of course. i never give up until i get what i want ❞ why should anyone? if you know you want something, you should try to go after your dreams. he had lost his captain position back home. but he still knew how to lead a team to victory. how to train new teammates too to get better ❝ on a scholarship? why was it different from what you were used to back home? ❞ it was a lot different than home. he had to get to know new people. see how they played. he watched every movement they did, in a case he one day could be captain ❝ who is the captain of the hockey team then? ❞ maybe had he heard of them too. he nodded at what dean said ❝ easy said than done. i am too, although right now am i only keeping my eye on everyone in the team, learn more about them. perhaps soon shall i talk to the coach about it ❞ what's the worse that can happen? he get kicked out of the team, maybe ❝ a bit. i bet i am not as good as you are, but i do know how to skate and keep my balance on the ice ❞

"I am indifferent at the moment," Heather admitted with a slight shrug. She didn't know how to feel, considering that before coming to DC, she was dead. Killed my her best friend and the fuck boy of a boyfriend that Veronica seemed so obsessed with. "Really? The same thing happened to me. Were you dead before coming here, too, or no?" Heather rolled her eyes. "ok, I'm so not in the mood for the positivity.."

❝ dead ?! ❞ he frowned. what did she meant by it. had she been dead before she arrived to washington dc? his eyes widened a little. not in the mood for positivity. got it. he shall not say any more positive things ❝ i was not dead. were you? how can they be back to life... the dead, i mean ❞

her head tilted to the side ❝ he didn't try to hurt you? i hope he hasn't ❞ she said. agreed with josie. he was, she didn't trust her brother anymore ❝ i don't trust him. i am scared of what he can or might do. it was once upon a time i could trust him. i heard some things, what he did to the whole family and to you and lizzie. it may never stop until he gets to all of us. well, he already did with almost the entire family and coven ❞

"Great!" Tara exclaimed, though perhaps a little too excited. "It's nice to meet you too- I mean." She brushed some hair behind her ear. "I'm a witch too, a real one. I had this club at my old school, and I started it here so I could meet more witches." She rambled.

❝ amazing ❞ avalyn smiled, bit on her lower lip to hear tara's words. she nodded ❝ oh, that is amazing. it is fun meeting other witches. you did? glad to hear. i was in a coven, a family coven, didn't really like it. too many rules we had to follow ❞ she was glad to be away from it ❝ how does it work here? in this coven or do you call it that? ❞

"i mean isn't washington, like, a semi common surname? maybe you are all extended family?" at this point ashley was just pulling excuses out of her ass. all she could do now was hope that one of them stuck or made sense enough to not question. it wasn't like she was the world's best liar or anything like that. ''anything i possible right? even the most whacky things on paper."

❝ yes. it isn't very common, is it? or maybe it is. hmm, you could be right ❞ they could be, although it still didn't know what she shall believe in anymore ❝ i am guessing it does. i don't like this at all. i feel more confused than i have ever been. it really does feel like i would know all of this and my brain doesn't let me remember ❞

a deep and troubling sigh escaped her as she tried to find a sense of calm in that moment. "fine. but i do not like the fact that we do not have a solution." it came with a pout. perhaps a bit of attitude that came with being the youngest sibling of a large family. "i am trying not to give up hope, brother. i truly am trying to fit in this world with what we have been taught, but... i just worry is all. i do not like the gut feeling i have. but you are right, i perhaps need to try and hold on a bit tighter to the positives."

❝ i do not like it either. perhaps you could say things only you know. you do know our sister better than i do. i barely have been at home to get to know all of you that well ❞ he knew his brothers more. maybe because they hung out more, talked more too ❝ yes, try to. i understand. if you need any help trying to understand this world, do not hesitate to ask me? i am certain you can ask penelope as well if there's any questions. she is family too after all and very easy to talk to. she might maybe have more answers than i do on how you can help eloise to remember ❞

(¸.• ♛ → she smiled at him and nodded, taking his hand to began leading the way now next to him. "that's totally fine, i'm glad that you are doing something you like so i get that. but i've been doing okay, i've spending some time with my mom, studying as well so just that. how about you? i mean, how are your classes? i know you say there are a lot of things but you like it, right?" she asked looking at him. "i'm not going to lecture you about that but remember this is not like high school, we need to do this more responsible i guess."

❝ yep ❞ marcus smiled. he was too ❝ i think i have to thank my mom for that. for buying me the coloring pencils and all that back home. it helped a lot, even though i don't always want to admit it ❞ nodded when she talked about what she had been up to ❝ that is good, i am glad to hear. how is she doing? does she like it here? and how are the studies going? ❞ he didn't know her mom very well. got a feeling she might not like him much, maybe could he be wrong ❝ i do like them. as long as people aren't idiots. there's a guy in the class who is really annoying. i tried to help him once and he stabbed me in the back ❞ his eyes rolled. he tried not to say a word to the person anymore. only glared at him or mumbled things whenever he was near by ❝ i know, i know. it's difficult being a young adult than a teenager. to take care of yourself, pay bills, and so on. but i guess we can't let our parents take care of us our whole life, right? ❞ he chuckled.

(¸.• ♛ → the raven haired woman looked at him, she truly wonders when he was going to remember, she really does miss him. "i try to." she says with a teasing tone now, at least they were able to talk like this, he wasn't pushing her away so that was good, she was thankful about this. "i haven't really seen that but i might, that sounds silly. i can't really imagine but i guess it could be funny to watch that." all the movies that simon used to recommend her in the past were actually pretty good, of course. "you think? i'm glad you do." at least maybe the connection was there. "you do music? that's great, i hope i can hear you one day. yes, besides being shadowhunter full time, i work in the white house as security." it was a simple way to put it.

simon smiled when he heard she said she might watch the movies ❝ we should see them together some day ❞ he said, without thinking. the words just came out of his mouth. he had to remind himself they just met, several times ❝ yes, you are ❞ he blushed, looked down on the table. wow, did he just blush? that's embarrassing. he hoped she didn't see it. when he glanced up, he chuckled ❝ i do. oh! then we have to decide a time when you are free from all your work. sounds as you are really busy. you free all day today? we have been sitting here a few hours now, i am sure you'd walk away if you needed to be somewhere. or are you being polite and trying to help me with my memories? ❞ he rambled, another chuckle escaped his lips after realizing he talked too much.
