Ariana walked along the pavement with her hand locked with Damon's, she had to go with him to the Mikaelsons house that night for a dinner, an attempt to achieve peace. She feared the idea of all four men sitting in one room however none would hurt her and she was attending to try and keep the peace.

"Will me being there help?" she questioned in worry. "I don't want to cause more trouble than there surely will already be."

"No, I am certain that you being there will only help. I'll take you home after we get something to drink in the grill, you can get ready and then I'll collect you at six and we'll be on our way. Don't worry, I have everything under control. I promise."

"You better. What should I wear? Are we going formal?"

"We are, but we're not going over board, smart casual, I'd say. Caroline's got it sorted. She's not too impressed with me taking you with me, she's worried you'll get hurt but at least you'll look amazing." he sighed and she giggled as they entered to mystic grill. She immediately knew it was busy due to the loud voices that met her ears.

" Stefan, just the man I wanted to bump in to." Damon spoke, directing Ariana to sit before beginning to chat with Stefan about the nights plan. Aria just sat and sipped a milkshake that matt had given her, waiting for Damon to take her home.

It was quarter to six in the evening and Ariana sat within the sitting room of the Gilbert House, waiting to be collected by Damon. Caroline had dressed her and she looked as brilliant as ever. Caroline had informed her that she wore a long sleeved dress with an almost tutu skirts, it was light pink with darker blue flowers and patterns. A ribbons circled the middle. Her hair was straightened down her back and she had a black hat but she would have to take that off inside so she wasn't sure why Caroline had bothered. Beneath her hat she had Dutch braided plaits that didn't go all the way down. It was in a half up and half down fashion.

"Little one" A voice spoke and she knew that Damon had appeared in front of her.

"Damon, don't just let yourself in." Elena stressed as she entered.

"I will if I want to."he replied ." come along Aria"

"Where are you taking my sister Damon?" the older doppelganger questioned, staring at the older Salvatore in his tuxedo as he took Ariana's hand and pulled her along behind him."

"Now that is none of your business, judgy."

"Damon!" she protested but by then, Ariana and Damon had left through the door. Ready for a date with the devil.
