‘’She’s not so murderous because she has a date with Elijah today. Not sure why shes going for him.. but shes happy and not trying to kill something for fun. So I’ll go along with it for now’’ Stefan stated witha shrug. ‘’As for the sleeping… i get it. .that feeling of being ‘safe’ but not safe at the same time. Happens a lot when you move to ne palces… or when you think someting bad will happen bt it never does’’ he stated ‘’one thing that i. Find that help.. is reading.. you get lost ina. Book, and it slowly helps get tired. Even vampires need o sleep sometimes. I can give you some books you can rad to help. If youd like. Sometimes taking our mind off your surroundings helps’’ stefan said gently and witha gentle smile before Kendra came back down with outfits ‘’okay i need help. I need omehting hat say s ‘it’s just a lunch date no biggie’ but also says ‘I’m here, im hot and take this off’ sooo. Which one says that, one…two… or three?’’ She siad a sshe held up three outfits that she had picked out the night before.

Zara looked at Stefan and thought about what he said "I haven't had a place to feel safe in nearly six hundred years. I doubt I'll sleep peacefully anytime soon" she somewhat muttered. "You know, there are more fun ways to tire oneself out without books" she teased with a mischievous smirk at him just before Kendra came into the room. Zara turned in her seat and looked at the options that Kendra had selected or was trying to pick from. "Three is over elegant, two has no shape, one is classy but not overdoing it either, plus red looks better on you than the other two" she remarked.

‘’Ugh! Finally! You dont know how great ut is to have another girl aorund! Ooohh!1 youre the best1’’ Kendra siad happily and hugged Zara and kissed her cheek before running off. Stefan snorted a bit at he look on Zara’s face ‘’you’ll get use to her. .i promise .. took me and dmaon a bit but eventually as we grew up we died get use to ehr antics’’ he stated and chuckled a bit. ‘’So I was gonna go into town to the bookshop today. Did you wanna come and you can check out some stores? See if there’s anything you like or may need?’’ He asked Zara before putting his stuff away and lokoing at her. Meanwhile Kendra got ready upstairs, she got a text from Elijah telling her he’d be there soon as he ahd a surprise for ehr before lunch happened. So now she was extra excited to know wat he had planned for them.

Zara blinked a little when Kendra hugged her and then the girl ran off to change. "Well she is an odd one, not that i haven't met those before just not usually living with them" she remarked as she went back to eating her yogurt and after a few bites she was finished it. Zara put the bowl in the sink with some water in it so nothing stuck to the dish as she heard Stefan speak again and she turned around. "You...want to go out...in public....with me?" She asked him surprised as she literally pointed at herself too. Meanwhile Elijah had showered and gotten dressed into a clean suit before picking up a black rental car downtown, he then got some of Kendra's favorite flowers and headed to the Salvatore boarding house. Once he parked out front, he got out, holding the flowers behind his back as he knocked on the front door.

Stefan rose a brow t Zara and chuckled ‘’yeah/ of course i do. Why wouldnt i?’’ He asked and chuckled ‘’it’s not like i have any reason to not go out in public with you. I dont overly care what people think. And neither should you. Besides if anyone tries ot mess with you. Ill be right there with you to fend then off’’ he stated and smiled softly at her ‘’go get dressed, we’ll make a day of it.. and grab lunch somehwere , do some shopping, and we cna even get to know eahc other mroe now that we’re lviing with each other. Besides. There isnt much else ot do around ehre today. So staying inside isnt to appealing o me’’ stefan said and shrugged before hearing the door. And then hearing kendra’svoice. ‘’I got it! I got it!’’ Kendra yelled out as she came downstairs. Fully dressed. She paused at the dor for a second to make sure she looked perfect before opening them. Nothing the flowers she smiled widely ‘’oh my gosh! Lillies! You remembered?! Awe thank you!’’ She siad happily as she took them and looked at the assortment of lilies ‘’come in, let me put these in some water and then we cna go’’ she siad and led him to the kitchen where she grabbed a vase. Once she was set,she siad bye to Zara and her brother ‘’dont stay out to late1’’ Stefan teased and Kendra shot him a look before leaving with Elijah.

Zara sighed with an embarrassed smile at Stefan "Im sorry, this is alot to get used to. People who see me usually run in fear, if they know who I am. If not they still avoid me because they think I'm a freak" she explained as stood there. "I'll be ready soon" she added with a smile, it had been a long time since she's actually smiled even. Zara was heading upstairs just as Kendra came flying down the stairs and she dodged out of the way, snickering slightly at the vampire's excitement. Elijah was standing outside with the flowers behind his back as he waited for Kendra. He smiled as he saw her when she answered the door and he gently took the flowers from behind his back and held them out to her. "Of course I did" he teased at her. Elijah stepped over the threshold of the door as Kendra went to the kitchen to put the lilies in water. When Kendra returned, Elijah held out his arm to her as they left and he closed the door behind them, he had a black merecedes parked out front and being the gentleman that he is, opened the door for her. Meanwhile Zara didn't take long to get changed into what she had stuffed in her school bag, her usual combat boots along with her ensemble and her hair brushed and pulled around her shoulders. "Alright well I'm ready when you are" she teased at Stefan with a smirk.

Nedra chuckled gently and smiled as she got intot he car ‘’such a gentleman’’ she teased and thanked Elijah before sitting inside.once they were good to go,they drove off and away fromt he Salvatore residence. ‘’You know..for the first time in a very long time. Im actually excited about going on a date with someone’’ she siad gently with a genuine look on her face. She hadnt been on a genuine date in a very long time. At least the last 30years. She wasnt interested in anyone for more than. Couple months at a time.. but now that she had her lost memories ack, and she was with o eone she genuinely cared for.. that bubbly excited feeling came back to her and she did not want to let it go.
Stefan looked over at Zara when she came back down and smiled ‘’alright lets go then’’ he said and grabbed his keys tp his special car he kept hidden away. ‘’Follow me’’he said leading her to the garage and opened it up, reveling his baby. He loved this car and didn’t drive it much as it was a classic car. ‘’You look good by the way. ‘’ he complimented before opening the passenger door for Zara and helping her in. Stefan took a minute to open he garage door by had as it wasnt an automated one like th eother garage that damon and Kendra used. He drove them out of the garage before he closed it up again. After a minute,they drove away fromt he house ‘’so. Anyplace you wanna go first? Clothing stores?decor places? I know a few around town from having Kendra help me with my room and vies versa’’ stefan siad as they drove downt he street. It was a pretty nice day out so he didn’t want to stay inside all day.

Elijah drove off and smiled over at Kendra when she spoke "Ironic, so am I" he gently teased at her. With Klaus still in the wind, Elijah was on guard but taking time to enjoy life too, and he definitely was going to with Kendra in it again. "You were like this once before, do you recall? Back in New Orleans, not long after we met and I asked you to dinner for our first date. I remember how excited and giddy you were, you always seemed that way it just...increased" Elijah reminded her with a smile and soon they pulled up to a nice restaurant, nothing over the top fancy as it was Mystic Falls anyways.
Zara smiled at Stefan and followed him to the garage, her eyes widened a little bit. "You still have one of these!?" Zara exclaimed and saw the look on Stefan's face. "Hey, I was around long before cars were invented, so when they came around it peaked my interest" she said with a shrug. Zara looked over the car a moment "1965 Porche 365C right? Four speed manual, 4 cylinder, 95 horsepower at 4200 rpm, 92 pound foot of torque at 4200 rpm, engine displacement of 1582cc" she commented as she walked along the passenger side before getting in. Zara noticed that it had been updated too but kept as much in its original form as possible. As Stefan drove away, Zara shrugged at his question "Ive never had my own room since I was human, so I don't even know the first thing about decor. You pick and I'll go okay? Never been shopping, well i usually just compel others to do it for me or get me what I need so..."

Kendra blushed a bit at the memory ‘’yeah i remember that dinner.. one fot he sat nights of my life to be honest with you. Rebekah helped pick out what id wear…sh said to me that she was thrilled to finally see you happy ‘’ Kendra siad gently. Before tkaing Elijah’s free hand with hers. ‘’Sorry fro the giddiness.. its kinda apart of this thing i have… im overly obsessed with death.. killing things… so on.. the excitement is kinda apart of that and it never seems to go away. Everything about me since becoming a vampire is heightened so much that…it kinda gets to be to much.. damon and stefan found a way to help surpress it, but every so often something will shine throguh ‘’ Kendra rambled and bit and took a breath to calm herself down.. she had remind herself a few times to knock it off and ac like a normal person…
stefan couldnt help but chuckle at Zara when she expressed excitement over the car ‘’wen i first saw his car.. something about it.. spok to me.. ive ahd this since it came out. Over the years ive had to modify it but ive kept it in near mint condition,few upgrades here and there but I know a small shop in France tha deals woith these kind of. ‘Vintage’ cars and the aprts to go with them.’’ He siad gently and smield. He did truly love this car. It was something he had that was just for him. And no one else. He never even let Kendra in it. But then again she did have her pwn vintage car ‘’you should see Kendra’s vintage car. Shes slightly obsessed with keeping it one hundred percent original in every way.’’ He siad an dchuckled. ‘’As for the room thing…. I think i kow. A toe that you might like. Kendra showed it to me when i was looking for a new desk. ‘’ Texan siad and took Zara to a vintage shop that the town had, iit had clothing, decor,books and a lot fo other cool things.

Elijah smiled at what Kendra said about his sister "Yes, she never understood why I stuck around our brother who hated us being happy, or so it seemed. You see, Niklaus was paranoid that if we were happy with others, we would leave him, and he'd be alone, fear of abandonment" Elijah explained. "Liking death is in our nature Kendra, as vampires we thrive on the hunt, not just the blood that keeps us from mummifying into corpses over a long span of time" he added.
Zara looked over at Stefan and smiled at him, the second or third time today which wasn't normal for her. If she had smiled in the past it was an evil one, not genuine like now. "Hey like I said wherever you want to go I'll go. You've been here longer than me. I found the high school when I first arrived that's as far as I got until you and your family invited me to your home. Which I appreciate by the way" Zara added.
