Stefan sighed and bit and nodded ‘’okay.. so shes not.. exactly… thrilled… but she has forgiven you.. i know she has.. over the last few weeks shes made progress in accepting whats hapepned, forgiving those who did her harm… who..made ehr feel.. like she was. Pawn to be thrown away… when Tyler elft it got bad…dark bad.. but she ahs gotten better.. she has said shes not… fond.. of you.. but that hse will accept you no matter hat because you make me happy and because my. Love for you runs eep and that wont chnage…she knows she cant. Change anything.. so shes working on forgiving everything and one and accepting people into her lfie, even if they are not her fave kind of people’’ stefan admitted ‘’but she is really trying.. a couple days ago,she siad if you ever came back and needed a place to stay. That shed offer her home up to you. She does want to work things out… she sjust… guarded’’ stefan siad gently as he looked at Erika with a gentle but serious look. He knew Emily disliked the mikaelsons hevaily.. but she was trying to start over and not lvie in the past.

’’aahhh.. actually.. shes already gone throguh the denial stage’’ Jeremy said ‘’yyeeaahhh that was a bad week’’ matt said ‘’see, two weeks after you elft… she.. spiraled… she made herslef belive you didn’t leave.. that shed wake up and youd be there…her denial was bad.. of course that spiraled into blaming Erika.. and Klaus and all of them for you leaving… and it got bad… then she found tht group we were telling you abou, and she told stefan about it, and since then she’s been happier, healthier, lighter… shes working on it.. but.. there are bad days.. like when damon and elena interupted her and Stefan’s third picnic, se uh… well she almost kileld damon.. took a couple days ot calm her down. Actually the leader of the group, Louis, came down after stefan asked him to and he got her to calm down…it was hectic’’ matt epxlained ‘’but.. she’s doing better.. she focusing hat energy on finding a college that suits her.. she wnats multiple degrees… she working  couple jobs.. keeping busy.. shes doing good and now that there back. Hopefully she’ll level out better’’ jeremy epxlained an dhsrugged. 

‘’Hey man, no ones saying that.. its just… Emily’s… way…more fragile nowadays…’’ matt stated and jeremy snorted ‘’mor like clinically insane.. then again, shes alwyas been a bit nutty. And im allwoed ot say that.. ‘’ jeremy stated as he leaned against the counter top opposite of Tyler while matt sat next to him. Jeremy was about to say somethign else when Hayley came in with a little girl ‘’hey is there someone aorund here who can check on her? She said shes not feeling very well and i have.. nooo clue what to do’’ Hayley said ‘’I can call Em. Shes been into all this witchy herbal medicine stuff lately. She can probably figure out whats hapepning’’ jeremy siad ‘’would that be okay? I just dont want any of the younger kids getting sick.. we’ve travelled so far already…’’ Hayley ‘’ no worries i got it’’ Jere siad and called Emily ‘’hey sis… we need some help over here… im uh.. at Tyler’s…yeha yeah, look theres a sick kid here can you come over now and help?‘’ Jere siad as they talked. Next thing they knew Emily was there ‘’of course i can help. Thats what5 im here for’’ Emily siad and looked at the young girl ‘’hi there darling.. i hear youre not feeling well… mind if i check on you?” She aksed sweetly and the girl nodded ‘’let’s take her to the bathroom upstairs. A little more private’’ she sad and Hayley and te girl follwoed Emily. 

Stefan sighed and nodded. ‘’I get why you ahd ot go. I was never upset over that part… i was a bit.. sad that you did go.. but i understood why.. why you had to. And i knew when you were ready youd come back. Or tell me you wouldnt come back. Either way i was okay with either outcome’’  stefan said gently ‘’and frankly.. i think you staying with Emily..might actually help.. both of you.. you have unresolved issues, on both ends. And dont say you dont. You can read minds sure, but i can read you like an open book.i know you have issues with her too… maybe.. for the sake of peace.. you both need to be under the same roof and wrk things out. At least for a little bit.. theres a guest room int he boarding hosue that need some serious work before anyone can live in it. Soooo maybe while i get that ready for you. .you can sta with Emily and jeremy… work on things… and ill rp on the spare room fro you to live in afterwards’’ he siad gently as he looked at her.. ‘’look you are my life… i love you.. but.. i also hold love for Emily too.. shes my best firend.. my little sister… and i want the two of you to get along.. you dont have to be friends.. or anything but.. id like it if you could at least get along well enough that its not weird or in a way where i dont feel guilty for hanging out with Emily when you two arent on good terms… can you.. at the very least.. try? Just a little bit? For me?’’ Stefan explained and asked gently 

‘’The call shouldn’t have taken long. She said it was a first interview, basic stuff, thee’s like two other interviews she ahs to do with Yale, her alst one will be in person’’ jeremy said as they chatted, a few of the male hybrids fromt h pack came over and started tlaking to matt and jeremy too. And after sometime, Hayley Emily Aden the little girl came back down ‘’gotta say Ty, this girl do yours. Is pretty awesome. And i dont say that about everyone’’ Hayley said ‘’she made my yu kids go away!’’t he girl said before running off to go play ‘’she had a small fever and some tummies issues, little bit of chamomile and ginger fixed it right up’’ Emily siad with a shrug ‘’thank you for helping her’’ one of the older males said before they left ‘’how was your interview?’’ Matt asked ‘’ugh… sooo boring.. Ithink Yale is out… i know its only the first of three interviews but my god… ‘’ she said and chuckled before taking out her phone and crossing out yale form her top six list.

Stefan chuckled and shook his head ‘’yes.. i know it sounds crazy. But yes.. i want yu two o get along at the very least’’ he siad nd chuckled. ‘’When it comes to that time, I’ll be more than happy to let you into my room.. or rather.. our.. room’’ he siad and chuckled before the waitress bought their stuff.  ‘’And just so you know… with elena living there, her and damon can get into some pretty loud fights… so be prepared to hear damon yelling a lot…’’ stefan siad and chuckled a bit ‘’hey!’’ A voice came befor ebonnie and caroline popped up ‘’holy crap youre back! Since when!?’’ Care asked, as she looked at stefan ‘’like an hour ago. Tylers back to with this wolf pack’’ stefan said ‘’wow.. i guess we were wrong’’ Bonnie siad and caroline rolled her eyes ‘’it was 50/50 he’d come back. Specially after everything that hapepned, I’ll be surprised if he actually stays’’ caroline siad ‘’okay tone it down… he didnt mean to make her sad with him leaving. He stayed in touch’’ Bonnie defended ‘’that is true’’ stefan siad as he took a bite of his burger ‘’like barley!  He didnt see how absolutely tor up Em was after he left or the week after! Or even last week! And he barely siad goodbye anyways!’’ Caroline stated as they sat down ‘’you’ll have to forgive care, shes still mad at Tyler.’’ Bonnie siad to Erika with a look. 

‘’I’m meant to pick one thing?’’ Emily asked an dlooked at the three males ‘’yes! How many things did you pick at each school!?’’ jeremy asked ‘’I dont know.. like.. several things at each.. I couldn’t make up my mind…’’ she stated and shrugged ‘’jeez em.. how exactly do you pla to do several major classes? At once?’’ Matt asked ‘’I’m a vampire witch hybrid..trust me.. i can handle it.. most of it is centered aorund art, architecture, archaeology… history.. art history.. things like tat.. like this one college in Egypt, i could basically do all of the classes and earn multiple degrees…’’ she stated ‘’Egypt? That far away? Why so far?’’ Jeremy askedcarefully, hi and Matt’s eyes glancing at Tyler for his expression. Emily shrugged a bit ebfore answering ‘’cause it’s Egypt. So why not? Plus ive applied ot like..every ther majorly huge college around the world.. gotta keep te options open ya know?’’ She siad and shrugged before her phone dinged, she grabbed it and opened an email ‘’spekaing of Egypt…’’ she stated an dlooked at they want me to come out there for my interview next week’’ she siad and looked at the others ‘’so soon?’’ Matt asked ‘’form what the email siad,  they had some cancelations.. so some space opened up. Could be a good opportunity to go and see if its the right fit for m’’ she siad an dput her phone away… 

‘’I was not mopey’’ stefan defended ‘’true.. you were the most miserable vampire in the history of vampires… we thought he was gonna stake himself if you didnt come back soon.. he wnated to go find you… buuuttt damon pointed out that if eh did that that you mgiht feel…. Weird.. about it.. since you needed space and all’’ caroline stated and shrugged ‘’honestly, both stefan and Emily were pretty miserable with out you and ty around.. but em’s gotten ehrself into this college obsession now… shes applied to every major college aorund the world’’ Bonnie siad and stefan nodded ‘’yeha gonna have to back that up… it seems like she cat get. Outta here fast enough. .which is surprising since she never wants to be without Tyler…’’ stefan siad ‘’it’s like ehr wires are crossed or something.. she wnats ot be with Tyler, but at the same time she wnats to runaway form here as ast as she can… but then at the same time as that shes also wanting to stay and owrk more on her magic and make sure jeremy stays ont he good path and bla bla bla..  its like se cant make up her mind rightnow’’ Careoline siad nad sighed ‘’what she needs is ot slow down…’’ Stean added as they sat tehre. 

’You can throw that around all you want. Doesn’t mean shit round here anymore’’ Bonnie said and caroline whacked her arm ‘’Bonnie!’’care. Siad and stefan chuckled ‘’what!? Its true! We got vampire,s wolves, hybrids and witches… being an ‘original’doesnt man nothing when you got all the supernatrual characters roaming aorund town! This palc eis a hot bed f crap like us.’’ Bonnie stated and shrugged. ‘’She has a point.. art this point.. inthis town./.we’re your average veryday people… ‘’ stefan teased and laughed befre his phone beeped and he answered it ‘’hello?…oh hey Louis… yeah Em’s good now..,. No no break downs… oh yeah? Yeah for sure come on down. Alright see you in a few dyas.. bye’’ stefan said and hung up ‘’who was that?’’care asked as she stole a French fry of his ‘’you remember that leader, Louis,  fo the self help group for vampires aorund the world? The one that came here and helped Emily? He’s passing through Virginia and wnats to come see how Emily’s doing. Hell be here in a couple days.. which means..Erica.. you can finally meet. Him’’’ stefan epxlained and smiled before texting Emily the good news. Caroline and Bonnie shared a unhappy and not so pleasent look with each other before Stefan noticed.

A text to Tyler syaing the three of them we’re gonna leave and go get some food at the grill.matt drove the over sinc ehad come in his truck ‘’so youre really thinking about elaving huh? What about Tyler?’’ Jeremy asked ‘’look, i love ty.. i do.. hes my other half.. and yeha.. when he elft it sucked.. .but i gotta get over that. Like Louis siad, i cant let other effect my mood, or. How i live.. if i wanna go to college in freaking Africa.. or… Timbuktu, then im gonna do it.. im half vampire.. i got all the time in the world to be with Tyler.. right now.. I wanna do something forme’’ she ex,ained before looking at her phone ‘’shut up!!!’’ She siad and texted stefan back ‘’what’s going on?’’ Matt asked ‘’Louis, our self help spiritual group leader, is gonna visit for a couple days!
