Rosalie's outfit

🥀

"Here we are. Senior year." Caroline says mesmerised as they all look at the school

"Anyone else think this should feel slightly more empowering?" Bonnie asks

"Okay, so prank night was a bust. But we are accepting it and we're moving on." Caroline says.

"You're right. Why should I let the fact that my boyfriend is seeing ghost of his dead girlfriends hinder this experience?" Bonnie says as they walk

"Yes. And why should I let the fact my boyfriend was turned into a hybrid put a damper on an otherwise fabulous day?" Caroline says.

"And that my brother got compelled to have no humanity and that I could throw up at any moment with my anxiety and stress." Rosalie says and Elena stops and they turn around

"Today's our anniversary. Technically, Stefan and I met on the first day of school last year."

"Yeah, you win." Caroline says.

"Are you sure you want to be here?" Rosalie asks

"I have to be here, I have to put it all behind me. New year, new life." Elena says and they all walk into school.

"Hey." Rosalie says approaching Elena as she hangs up the phone

"Hey." Caroline then walks up to the pin board and pins a flyer for the back to school bonfire

"I forgot about the bonfire." Elena says approaching Caroline

"You two have to go. It's our first spirt squad event and it sets the bar up for the whole year." Caroline says.

"Relax Care Bear, we'll be there." Rosalie reassures

"Thank you. It's just that-" she gets cut off by Tyler kissing her

"I definitely need to throw up now." Rosalie says and gags.

"Happy first day." Tyler says and Elena looks at his shirt and sees a spot of something

"Is that blood?" She asks and Caroline shoves him into the toilets with the girls following

"What's going on?" He asks confused.

"Vampire 101: don't wear your breakfast to school." Caroline says and Elena checks the stalls

"Chill out, it was a blood bag." Tyler says

"From where?" Caroline asks

"Rebekah hooked me up." Tyler says.

"Rebekah? And what are you even talking to her for?" She asks

"Klaus told her to keep a watch on me, protect his new asset." Tyler says with a small smile

"His what? Why are you amused by this?"

"I'm his first successful hybrid, Caroline. Don't you think that's a tiny bit awesome?" He says Caroline scoffs

"Oh, wow, I cannot believe you just said that." She says

"So I'm gonna go." Elena says.

"Yeah, me too. Have fun with this." Rosalie says walking out the door.

Once they walk out Elena bumps into Stefan,

"Hello, Elena, Rosalie." He says

"What are you doing here?" Elena asks.

"What do you mean? I'm going back to school. Go Timberwolves." Stefan says

"What? Why?" Rosalie asks her brother

"Klaus wants me to keep an eye on you two. I'm just doing what I'm told." He says

"I'm gonna be late for class." And they start to walk but Stefan grabs Elena

"Class is this way." He says.

"Let go of me, Stefan." Elena tells him

"Elena, do you think I wanna be a senior for the hundredth time? No. But I don't have a choice in the matter, neither do you. Both of you." Stefan says.

"I said let go of me." Elena repeats

"Let her go." Ric says as he approaches them and Stefan takes his hand away and shoves him into the lockers

"Stefan, stop it." Elena says as people start to look at them.

"You're not gonna want to get in my way, okay, Ric? I will see you three in history. Hey that rhymes." He walks away.

🥀

"What the hell is he doing here?" Ric asks in his classroom

"Klaus compelled him to watch us." Rosalie answers

"Apparently we are on of Klaus' asserts now that my blood is the only way to create a hybrid and Rosalie... we still don't know." Elena continues.

"So now he's a bodyguard?" He asks

"I don't know what he is but he's definitely not Stefan." Elena says and the bell rings and everyone gets in their seats and Elena whispers something to Ric and Stefan walks in and goes to the seat beside Elena.

"You're in my seat." He says and the boy moves and he sits down smiles at Elena and Rosalie starts sketching something on the page with her pencil as Ric starts talking

"Welcome back, seniors. Let's turn our brains back on, starting with this county's original founders, The Native Americans." He goes to continue when a voice cuts him off.

"What about the Vikings?" Rebekah walking into the classroom and smiles at Rosalie

"Well, there's no evidence that Vikings explorers actually settled in the United States. Who are you?" Ric asks as she takes a seat in front of Elena.

"My name's Rebekah. I'm new and history is my favourite subject."

🥀

"So, you're staying at my house?" Rosalie asks Rebekah

"Yes." Rebekah says and Rosalie claps

"We are going to have so much fun." She says and they laugh.

"I'm gonna be at the bleachers to finish my sketch." Rosalie says and Rebekah nods and walks over to the cheer team as Rosalie walked to the bleachers, she sat down and took out her sketch which surprised her when she realised it wasn't a rose.

It was Klaus.

🥀

"I'm home!" Rosalie calls into her house and turns to see a pile of dead girls in the living room

"In the kitchen!" Damon calls and Rosalie scurries to the kitchen

"Why has our living room turned into a graveyard?" Rosalie asks.

"Stefan happened. I thought you saw it before you went to school?" Damon asks

"Nope, Stefan was away when I went to school. Thankfully." She says and then furrows her brows.

"Fuck, I'm such a bad sister. Who says shit like that. What the fuck is wrong with me? I'm treating him like he's a monster he can't help his situation, I should be supporting him." Rosalie rants.

"Rosalie Lily Salvatore!" Damon calls and Rosalie abruptly stops,

"There is nothing wrong with you. You believe there's hope in people and that's just your nature, Stefan's humanity is off and you haven't dealt with that so it's okay to feel negativity about it." He says and hugs Rosalie.

"Thanks." She mumbles.

Rosalie mostly presses down negative emotions and never express it but eventually it comes to the surface.

It's just a matter of when.

🥀

The Scooby Doo gang except Bonnie were in a class room discussing what they should so with Stefan,

"Rosalie and I will lure Stefan away from the fire, when he's distracted-" Elena says

"I'll shoot him." Alaric finishes.

"Can't Bonnie just juju him or something?" Damon asks

"I'm trying to keep Bonnie out of this, I don't trust Stefan won't hurt her." Elena answers and then she turns to Caroline

"Caroline, are you covered?" She asks.

"Yes, I will make sure the old Forbes jail cell is prepped and ready." Caroline says

"Kinky." Rosalie coughs

"You're forgetting a key player here. Rebekah. Wherever Stefan goes, a blonde ponytail tends to follow." Damon tells Elena.

"Which is why it's your job to keep her away." Elena says

"How? She's an Original. Last time I checked, we're out of daggers." Damon says

"So then preoccupy her with your charm." She tells him

"Might have better luck finding a dagger." Ric says and Rosalie puts her hand up.

"Wait, I wanna flirt with Rebekah." Rosalie says with a pout but before anyone can say anything Tyler walks in.

"Sorry I'm late. What's going on?" He asks

"We need you to raid your mom's vervain supply enough to keep Stefan down for a while." Elena says

"You can't do that to Stefan." Tyler says and everyone looks at him.

"Why not? Trust me, Tyler, it's in his best interest." Elena says

"Yeah." Caroline says

"But it's not in Klaus'." He says.

"But Klaus is the bad guy, Tyler. Why are you acting like some freaky hybrid slave-minion?" Caroline asks

"Uh-oh." Damon says

"What?" Ric and Rosalie ask.

"Klaus made me who I am, Caroline. I owe him everything." Tyler says

"Oh, boy." Damon says

"Okay, can we cool it on the commentary, please?" Caroline says.

"What is going on?" Elena asks and Damon picks up a vervain dart

"I'm just gonna go." Tyler says and Damon speeds to him and insects the vervain dart in his back making fall unconscious

"What are you doing?" Caroline asks walking to Tyler.

"He's been sired." Damon says

"What?" Rosalie asks

"Sired. He feels loyal to Klaus because Klaus' blood created him." Damon explains.

"Loyal how?" Elena asks

"He'll seek acceptance fro his master, it's really rare. Maybe not so much in hybrids." Damon explains further

"So, how do I fix him?" Caroline asks

"Get a new boyfriend." Damon says and Rosalie raises her hand again.

"You could date me."

🥀

"Bekah!" Rosalie squeals holding a cup of alcohol as she runs to Klaus' sister and hugs her

"Wow, you are so drunk right now." Rebekah says and then hands Rosalie a cup

"Drink this." She says and Rosalie chugs it.

"That was great what is it?" Rosalie asks

"Water." Rebekah says and Rosalie gasps.

"You bitch."

🥀

"Rosalie, how can you run in those heels." Rebekah asks as Rosalie ran away from her on the football pitch

"It's easy." Rosalie giggled

"Right we've been doing this for god knows how many hours, we are going home." Rebekah says.

"No." Rosalie pouts and Rebekah grabs her hands and Rosalie spins around and laughs.

🥀

Klaus was in Portland and was ready to go to bed when he gets a phone call from Rosalie and obviously he answers it

"Love..." He trails off confused

"Nikkie!" Rosalie squeals from the other side of the phone.

"Love...have you been drinking?" Klaus asks

"Oh, my god, Rebekah made me drink water while making me think it was that spicy juice. Also when are you coming back?" Rosalie asks

"Why? Has something happened?" Klaus asks.

"No...I just miss you." Rosalie confesses in her drunk state

"Rosalie, you're drunk." Klaus says.

"So?" Rosalie asks

"You won't remember this in the when you wake up." He says.

"Yeah, you are probably right but I don't care. I just wanted to say that I miss you and goodnight." Rosalie says

"Well, goodnight, love." Klaus says and Rosalie laughs.

"Goodnight Nikkie."
