I open the door to Rich's classroom, he has something urgent he needs to tell us. I look to see Stefan, Damon, and Elena. "I got your text." I say, sitting down at the desk Stefan is leaning on. "Sorry I'm late." I say before Ricin's begins speaking.
"I saw Isobel last night." He begins, I start to furrow my eyebrows. "Isobel is here? In Mystic Falls?" I ask. Ric nods. "What does she want?" I look at Elena, she seems uncomfortable. "She wants to meet me." Elena finally says.
"What about Jon Gilbert, are they working together?" I look at him confused. "Why would they be working together?" I ask Damon. "Because Jon has that dumb device that is important for some reason."
"Look, I didn't really ask any questions." Ric says, Damon gets all up in his face. "Did the words completely slip out of your mouth?" He shouts. "I was a little too distracted by my "dead" vampire wife to ask any questions!" Ric shouts back at Damon.
"All we know is that she wants to meet Elena." Stefan begins to say. "Ric is supposed to arrange a meeting."
"No. Absolutely not. Elena, you can't do this." I say to Elena. "I don't have a choice."
"She's threatening to go on a killing spree." Ricin's says, killing my speech about why this isn't a good idea.
"I wanna meet her, if I don't I know that I'll regret it." Elena confesses. I can't help but feel like this isn't gonna turn out well.
Stefan pulls out a seat for me to sit in it. I look at him, it's sweet, but I can do it myself.
"Thanks Stefan, but I can pull out my own seat." He smiles. "If you insist." After seating ourselves, we both look over at Elena, who's waiting for Isobel. "Don't seem on edge, we don't want Isobel to know we are watching them." Stefan tells me, I nod. Elena jumps every time there's a loud noise. Stefan looks up at me. "Don't be worried, Blake. Even if she whispers, I can hear everything she's saying." I laugh. "I know, Stefan. I'm not worried, I'm just... anxious." I consider saying something else, but a woman walks up and sits down at the table with Elena.
"She's there." I whisper to him. He nods. A woman walks up to us.
"Welcome to the Mystic Grill. Can I get you guys started off with a drink?" She asks.
"Um, we're still deciding." I say, the woman smiles at us and then walks away. I can'y help but just watch them. Elena looks over at us. "She knows we're watching them." Stefan says, I take a deep breath. "What do we do? Do we leave, or..." Stefan interrupts me. "I don't know," he grabs my hand. "but Blake, we're in this together." I grip his hand tight. "I know."
Elena attempts to get up, but Isobel grabs her arm, and forces her to sit back down. Stefan listens intently, and Elena seems a bit freaked out. I'm eager to find out what they're talking about. I wish I could hear them, like Stefan can. Isobel gets up, and leaves the grill. I run over to Elena and she hugs me.
"Are you okay?" I ask.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She says into my shoulder.
"So what did she say?"
"She wants the Gilbert Device." Elena says. "We have to steal it from Damon." She finishes. I look at Stefan, I can tell by the look on both his and Elena's faces that they're hiding something Isobel said from me. "Is that it?" I ask.
"Yeah, that's it." She lies.
Back at school, Stefan and I are helping paint the floats for Founder's Day. I move to get more paint our of the bucket, but I nudge it and get paint all over my shirt. Stefan looks over at me and begins to laugh.
"Dammit." I cuss under my breath. "I mean, it's just a shirt right?" Stefan says.
"My dad gave me this shirt." I say. Stefan's smile turns to a frown. I jump off the float and begin to head inside the school.
I open my locker, and take of my shirt. I grab a red sweatshirt and put it on. I close my locker to see Stefan. "Look, I'm sorry. I had no idea." I shrug. "It's fine." I hug him.
"We should get back to the float or else Caroline's gonna kill us." I turn around, but I hear a snapping noise. I glance behind me to see Stefan on the ground, and a familiar face. "Isobel?" She smiles at me.
"Hello, Blake. I'm gonna need you to come with me." I turn around, and begins to run, but she appears in front of me.
"Wrong choice." She says before slamming my head into the locker.
I wake up on a white couch. A man and a woman are dancing, and Isobel is sitting on a chair across the room from me. She looks up at me for her book. "You two. Leave." She says as the man and woman dancing leave the room.
"What am I doing here?" She smiles at me. "You are my leverage. I need the device from Elena and I need it now." She exclaims. I feel I pain on my wrist, and I look down to see marks.
"Did you feed on me?" I ask.
"No, but some of my friends did." I wipe my thumb over it, it's still fresh.
"How long have I been out for?"
"And hour or two." She says. She looks up at the clock. "You've awoken just in time, we should get going."
"Where are we going?"
"To get the device, of course."
Isobel's minion ties a rope tight around my wrist, and kicks me down onto my knees. I look around the park, no one. Isobel's minions swoosh away.
"They've got five minutes to get us the device, or else..." she trails off. "Or else what?" I ask, concerned. "Or else we'll have to kill you, Blake." I hear footsteps walk up the path, as Elena appears.
"Where's the device?" Isobel asks.
"First, you give me back my brother." Elena demands, Isobel laughs.
"He's not your brother, Elena." Isobel teases.
"Do you want your device or not?" Elena snaps. "Do you really think I cam alone?" She asks, as her minions reappear. "Do you really think I came alone?" Elena asks, as Stefan and Damon appear.
"For god sakes, here!" Isobel throws me over, Stefan catches me. "Blake, are you okay?" He asks. I nod, as Stefan tears the ropes off my wrists, and we hug.
"Get him out of here." Elena orders. Stefan whooshes me away.
Stefan pushes me up against the wall, he kisses me, and I kiss him back. Stefan picked me up, and kicks the door to his bedroom open, he puts me down and we both pull back. I unzip my sweatshirt and take it off.
"I was so worried about you, about what she'd do to you." Stefan says while unbuckling his belt. I help him take of his shirt. "I thought she was gonna kill you." He says. "Well I'm fine. So instead of worrying about everything that just happened, how about we take our minds of it." I announce before continuing to make out with Stefan. He pushes me down on the bed, and gets onto of me.
"Great idea." He begins kissing my neck, and pining my hands behind my head, he pulls back and looks up. "They fed on you?" He asks. I look up at my wrist.
"Yeah, but it's fine, I swear." I looks at my wrist, examining it. I take my other hand and pull his face into an embrace. "Stefan, right now we have more important things to focus on other than the fact that those freaks fed on me." I kiss him. "Let it go." He nods before making out with me once more.
