The cheerleaders stood in their bathing suits, as Caroline ordered them around. "No friend discounts. No freebies. No pay ya laters. We are not running a charity here. No, we are not!" She announced. "No we are not..." Lexa replied awkwardly, before looking to Bonnie.
Sienna walked past Lexa and Bonnie, but not before giving Alexia a quick grin. "Lookin good, Gilbert." She said cockily, before she continued walking, heading over to Allira and Matt. Lexa and Bonnie blinked in surprise, before looking at one another. The Gilbert's cheeks flushed, whilst Bonnie laughed awkwardly. "Did Sienna Lockwood just flirt with me?" Lexa then blurted.
"Uh-uh, no. None of that tortured pining stuff." Sienna huffed, looking to Matt who was looking at Elena and Stefan. "I'm just observing." Matt insisted. "I don't know.. it looks like you're pining." Allira insisted, glancing at Matt.
Sienna rolled her eyes playfully, "Oh Matty, it's time we find you a new girl.. maybe I can help!" Sienna said, wiggling her eyebrows. Matt frowned, "Since when were you my wing woman?" He then asked. "Since I got sick of watching you sadly pine after Elena." Sienna declared childishly.
"Hey guys, maybe you should focus more on cleaning cars." Lexa suggested to Matt, Allira and Sienna, as the pair looked at her. "Caroline will rip our heads off this isn't successful." The Gilbert added with a sympathetic look.
"You are so right." Matt blurted, before scratching the back of his head. "Forbes doesn't scare me." Sienna announced, before Matt dragged her away to help him wash a car. "She will..." Allira sighed, sick of Sienna's fearless act.
Lexa turned around, as a car pulled in. "Oh. Tiki. this one's yours." She announced. Tiki turned to Alexia and crossed her arms. "Why do I always get the homely ones?" She scoffed, rudely. Tiki then turned to the driver, who had their window down. "Just to be clear, your car's a piece of shit. I mean, we can wash it, but it's still a piece of shit." She insisted.
Lexa frowned, not liking Tiki's attitude. The twin opened her mouth to say something, but didn't have the chance as Bonnie spoke up. "You don't have to be rude."
"Rude is uglying up the road with that junk." Tiki declared, as Lexa rolled her eyes in annoyance. Bonnie frowned, glaring at Tiki, before water began to splash on her. "What the hell!?" Tiki boomed, as she didnt know where it had come from.
"Was that you?" Lexa asked her best friend, in surprise. Bonnie's mouth fell open in surprise, "I think I did do that." She confessed, equally as surprised.

Elena found Caroline, sorting out money into a container. "Hey, we're out of towels and those shimmy things." Elena announced. Caroline stopped what she was doing and looked up at Elena, "I'll go get some more. Mind the money."
Caroline walked off, at a fast pace. She entered the dark school halls and walked down the end, to grab more towels. She started hearing her name being called again.
"Caroline."
The girl spun around in shock, realising there was nobody else in the hallway. "What the fuck!? Am I going insane!?" Caroline blurted, annoyed.
"Caroline, help me. Caroline. Help me."
There it was again.. but this time Caroline recognised who the voice belonged to.. as if they were trying to reach her.
"Help me."
It was, Damon.

After having an interesting conversation with Tiki's grandfather, Elena walked back over to her boyfriend, who was finishing washing a car, with the help of Lexa. "Caroline finally freed you, huh?" Stefan asked, surprised. "Uh, I don't know where she went." Elena confessed. "She abandoned me."
"Hey, I realized earlier, I had no idea that your family was from Italy." Elena laughed. "Really?" Lexa blurted, surprised. "Last name Salvatore didn't do it for you?" Stefan asked, with a chuckle.
"Right. Duh. Are there any other Salvatores in Mystic Falls?" Elena asked. Lexa then left the pair, as another car entered the cleaning perimeter, and the driver hadn't been attended to.
Sometime later, Lexa return and stood beside Elena suddenly, "Is that the news reporter guy?" She asked, looking at Logan, who was getting his car washed. Elena nodded, without turning to face her twin. "Yikes." She heard Lexa mutter.
"Hey Lexa, If anyone asks, you don't know where I went. I don't want Caroline to know that I left." She confessed, giving her twin a pleading look. "Alright, fine. But I don't trust this guy.." Lexa confessed quietly, eyeing Logan.
Elena rolled her eyes, feeling like her twin was being over dramatic, "I'll message you every now and then so you know I'm fine." She insisted. Lexa continued to eye Logan before she turned to her twin, "Alright Lena." She decided. Elena walked towards Logan, feeling like Lexa was being a bit ridiculous... The man seemed harmless.

Caroline entered the Boarding house and walked down into the cellar, where she found Damon locked away. "Caroline, help me. Caroline. Help me." He groaned through the doorway.
"Damon?!? Damon? Oh, my god! What is this? How did I know that you were here?" Caroline blurted, surprised and confused by this situation. "Because I wanted you to. Very, very badly. Let me out of here. Please." Damon begged the Forbes.
Caroline crossed her arms, "You bit me." She said. "You liked it. Remember?" Damon asked, trying to reassure her. "Why do I keep remembering the same things, but in different ways?" The blonde asked, frustrated.
"You remember what I want you to remember. And now that the vervain has passed out of your system, you won't remember what you're about to do."
"What am I about to do?"
"You're gonna open the door. You're gonna open the door, Caroline."
Caroline walked over to the door, and unlocked the latch, pushing it open. "No!" A voice screamed, as Zach, the Salvatore's uncle raced downstairs and tried to push the door closed. He then turns to Caroline and said, "Run!"
Caroline was quick on her heels as she turned around and sprinted, leaving the house.

"Sweeper duty." Tiki demanded, looking to Bonnie. "What?" The girl asked, raising an eyebrow. "We have to clean the pavement."
"It's a car wash. By definition, the pavement's clean." Bonnie replied as Tiki retorted, "But not dry."
"And I'm doing this why?" Bonnie asked. "Caroline bailed, so that leaves me in charge." Tiki decided, putting her hand on her hip before she turned around.
Bonnie glared, at Tiki... sick of her attitude. Suddenly, with her glare, she started a fire and Tiki's car began to burn.
"Bonnie!" Lexa squeaked, as she raced over to her best friend, followed by Stefan. "Bonnie! Bonnie! Hey!" She continued saying, shaking Bonnie out of her trance.
The brunette had a hold of Bonnie, she began to siphon magic from the girl before she caused the flames to disappear.
"What just happened?!" Bonnie asked, snapping out of her concentrated state. "You were in some kind of a trance." Stefan replied to her. "Did I do this?" Bonnie asked, still in surprise. "I think so, yeah." Stefan admitted.
"Bon bon, I just siphoned magic from you.." Lexa admitted. Bonnie's eyes widened in shock, "Nobody else saw, did they? Don't tell anybody. Please." She begged them. "Bon, you know I won't." Lexa insisted, keeping her eyes on Bonnie. "Me neither." Stefan confessed. "I need to speak to my Grams." Bonnie sighed.
