╬ first bite

[ Like his brother, Stefan can read. But unlike his brother he does not take any of this at face value. He is not happy. In fact, he sounds downright testy. ]

The name Paradisa is Greek in origin. It means garden or orchard. It’s fitting, ending up here. Oh, and Katherine, if this is your elaborate way of influencing my mind, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. Elena and I may not be together but I will never love you again. You will never understand mine or anybody’s idea of paradise. You only serve yourself and if Damon didn’t entomb you I will find you and do it myself.

This isn’t funny, Katherine!

If in fact, this is not a fabrication of my mind and I just yelled everything to complete strangers as it says I would’ve, I apologize. And if I am talking to myself…

I see that he's - [ sigh. ]

I'm sorry, but I don't.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

What's the last thing you remember before arriving here?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

[ Close to the vest. ]

I was on the Lockwood property. There was a masquerade.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

I didn't come to Mystic Falls until after you two locked Katherine up in the tomb.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

You know about Katherine? [ so both she and Caroline are from after him. he'll try something... ] Klaus?

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

Yes and...yes. I'm the one who originally informed you Salvatores about Klaus and Elijah.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Elijah. [ another name he'll file away ] You know my name, I feel like I'm at a disadvantage. I'm repeating myself. [ note to self. never publicly do this again. ]

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

I'm Rose. I suppose you could call me an ally.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

That's not very encouraging.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

What? You want me to tell you that we're all bosom buddies? I mean, I was on your side, the pro-protect Elena side. What more can you want?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Protect her from Katherine? [ a beat ] From Klaus.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

Katherine is no threat to me. Protecting her from Klaus and Elijah was the main threat.

[Sigh]

Is someone going to fill you in on everything?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Caroline is on her way.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

Good, she can play teacher.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Rose. [ or whatever. ]

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

Lexi always spoke so highly of you.

[She chuckles]

Look, I'll tell you what I told Damon. You can trust me. Here in this place, we should all stick together.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

You knew Lexi?

[ A smile. ]

I'll keep that in mind. We'll be in touch.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

She's a friend.

[Pause]

Why did you put her in past tense?

[No one has bothered to tell her that Damon killed Lexi]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

[ he gets quiet. ]

She's dead.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

[There's an even longer pause and a long inhale of breath...but no exhale]

How? When? Things were going so good for her last time we ran into each other.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

[ he has no reason to drag Damon through the mud ]

The town council realized vampires were back in town. They pinned deaths on Lexi.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

[Good cover. She's already in a foul mood with Damon. If she new he'd killed Lexi, she would be out for blood]

I don't understand how they knew what she was. She's smart, she knows not to blow her cover.

[She sounds very upset]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

She didn't. They were...clever.

[my-bff-trevor.livejournal.com]

I need...some time to myself.

[Is that a tear drop on her journal?]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry.
