A continuation of the previous ask
Has Stefan compelled Elena? It sounds kind of wild but maybe. Klaus seems to be in Elena's conscious mind more and more often? Lol. There is only so much self denial she herself is capable of . Also did Klaus frown when they brought up the fact that she had been in Chicago previously because he kind of wanted to show her the world. Is that why he agreed to have them both be brought over. I doubt Rebekah has much influence over him when he is so jealous of her for having what he desires and needs at this point he probably was just paranoid that Elena and Stefan will start an affair if left unattended. I mean history doesn't favor Elena's fidelity in those case in his eyes, I mean he left her alone with Tyler and Rebekah at different points in time and look how that turned out. It would KILL HIM if she and Stefan developed something like this. And the way he glances at Elena when Stefan brings up the fact that he had already taken everything from him. Like I am not kidding I melted into a puddle, just because of this one small gesture. 😅 no wonder my bookshelf is filled with dark romance. Like Klaus is a red flag but I am colorblind. Also Elena being a delusional pouty princess thinking that Klaus would always go back to Stefan and that he had never spoken affectionately to her like he does with his so called brother. LIKE GIRL HE IS JUST A DISTRACTION. YOU ARE THE REAL DEAL. And then Klaus and Stefan both sit in front of her and start talking about Damon . My heart literally cracked 💔 I can't imagine how much our protagonist has gone through. She is such a strong person for having survived it all. Almost all of us would Crack if we just have 1/10th of the trauma that she has. Isn't kinda wild that I am still rooting for Klena despite everything Klaus had put her through.
Also the cigarette scene leaves me wondering what he had been about to say to her before she cut him off. Maybe about Jeremy or mystic fall gang. Also the fact that Elena feels that she couldn't ask anyone about the gang us maybe false. Would Kalus answer her if she outright asked him about them? I mean he brought up the topic so he didn't intend to keep her in the dark.
Also the most important spoiler of the chapter I feel is the silver car after which Stefan accelerates and reaches Chicago very early on. 🤔 Who was driving that car. Was it Kol? Damon ? I legit googled which car Damon drove 😳 .
Also is Stefan lying to Elena. Like he obviously lied when he said that Klaus doesn't care to. However, what does this even mean , " Even your thoughts aren't yours. " And also the two instances where he seemed to be able to pick right off what Elena was thinking.
Also I like the little detail when Rebekah bites Elena and the wound does not heal which implies that she doesn't have any vampire blood in her system.
I feel like something is going to happen with the silver car. Rebekah's cryptic comment about The nostalgia of a farewell. I am very confused by these Easter eggs but I really don't think I am looking too much into it.
You know previously in one of your posts u mentioned that Klaus wasn't actually aware of the fact that Elena has feeling for Damon buy maybe he now suspect that that love is not as one-sided as he thought, hoped.
" She realizes all at once that Klaus is watching her. Watching her, while Stefan watches him."
" Because he is obsessive" " Guess who the object is? "
" Klaus doesn't so much as look at her the rest of the night."
Our girl is also suicidal again. I like that the mental health depection is so honest in this fic. Because the road to healing is so long even in the most optimal environment and Elena's environment just sucks. Also water seems to really define her . I mean she once almost died in the lake in mystic falls, had her first suicidal attempt in Mississippi, 2nd in the bathtub, and 3rd now in the pool. I think that pulled her put was Klaus, also there is probably an upside of being compelled by him, because she doesn't remember anything after it until she sees Rebekah which is very odd. Did Kol pull her ought of the water ? 💧 maybe 🤔. Whose body was at the bottom of the pool. A victim? Vampire.
Sorry If this is all over the place but that's how my thoughts are right now. Just wanted to share it.
well, as for what compulsions Elena may be under-- read and find out! but I would say the dreaminess of the chapter could also be read as a state of almost disassociation-- it's all very surreal to Elena to look back and see where she is now by comparison. But the compulsion topic-- and whether Klaus or Stefan or anyone else has controlled her thoughts lately-- was definitely a huge theme to the chapter.
I think Klaus frowned when it was revealed Elena actually had been to Chicago because he reads it as a mistruth from her-- another lie he's caught her in. He's still sensitive on that topic when it comes to Elena.
Hmm I think Rebekah actually does still have influence with Klaus. Their history is so long. He can be unsatisfied by his present situation and still have special feelings reserved for Rebekah. He certainly still considers her his in a very particular way. And he agreed to bring Stefan which both he and Rebekah knew would mean bringing Elena because he's lonely. He probably did want Elena there too but couldn't bring himself to admit it. Or-- bringing Stefan gave him an excuse to summon her as well-- an excuse to himself.
I am so glad you're still on team klena after all this-- it's a slow burn from hell in this fic, but every relationship in some way reflects back on the main ship, you know? because there is a main ship
the colorbllind comment really cracked me up 😂
I think the thing about Elena not having anyone to ask about her loved ones in Mystic Falls is probably an example of unreliable narrator
the thing about Stefan saying things like "even your thoughts aren't yours" is that it's as true for her as it is for them-- they are ultimately both susceptible to and victim to the whims of the originals they live with -- it's a dark form of sympathy
and the Easter Eggs will make sense very soon. the nostalgia of a farewell indeed. 🥚
the end note is interesting-- I'm not sure she's even suicidal-- her compulsion to live would have kicked in if that were the case-- just-- sometimes she is drawn to dangerous situations and she doesn't even register how dangerous they are until she's well in it -- but I agree, her mental health is all over the place.
I think realistically she was under water for an extremely short period of time-- but she was in a weird place mentally and emotionally and got pulled out of the water before she could be under for too long-- like, she was overly passive and comfortable in the water, which is... typical.

Ch 1
Lost Gilbert and Forbes wolf
@tyrionsprincess29 Co author
Y/N Saltzman was in the car  with her dad. She was moving  home  after having a hard  time being away at boarding school so her dad took her out and enrolled her in Mystic Falls high school . She saw the sign welcome to Mystic Falls; she also knew that the town was no normal town . "I know you don't like moving around  but I promise you will get used to this town sweetheart ." Y/n sighs "It's not the moving around that bugs  me dad it's hiding the fact of why we move." Her dad sighs, tapping the steering wheel at his daughter's statement. "Look, I'm sorry that it has to be this way. But I am a vampire hunter." She rolled her eyes looking out the window mumbling. "I know that you trained me since I was 10 dad " Ric keeps driving  . "We will be staying here for a long time ok . I think that was what was making you feel left out in school "  
Meanwhile at the Forbes house Caroline was in her sisters room talking about the new girl coming to town . "So I hear a new student is moving to your school sis. What happened? " Caroline knew almost everything about a girl that hadn't even entered the town yet. ''She got kicked out of her old school, come on details girl." Caroline was the one person who had to know everyone in the town no matter what. "Well I just hope there isn't a party tonight...since I won't be able to go." Y/n's smile dropped mentioning that there was a full moon coming tonight. Caroline sat down with her sister laying her head on her shoulder sucking in a breath. "I'm sorry you have to turn like that. I can't imagine how painful that is for you." Y/n lifts her head up, shoving her sister off her shoulder playfully. "Okay this is getting too sad. Let's figure out what we're wearing to school." Caroline smiled at her sister trying to change the subject. She always hated talking about sad moments when they were growing up because the girls were in high school and had the whole world to explore. That was Caroline's dream for when they graduated. But Y/n only hoped that she could find a one of a kind love somewhere. 
Y/N was in her room puting the last box away when she heard someone walk inside she grabbed a wooden stack and was ready to attack  .  "Hey Ric you home ?" Said the voice he was looking around  when he heard a click and he froze. "Who are you vampire and how do you know my father ?" Ric walks in and gasps  "Oh crap Damon, I told you to text me " The vampire named Damon just shrugged his shoulders. "Sorry phone  died now, can you tell Buffy here to stand down?" Damon pointed his index finger at her standing in the doorway. "Oh sorry. Honey It's ok he's a friend of mine why don't you get your stuff for school " Y/N went to her room and got ready for school . 
"What the hell Ric you never told me you had a daughter. " Ric puts up his daughter's weapon in the drawer. "She was at boarding school and you guys never asked" Damon scratches his head still seeing Elena in this room somehow. "So why is she here now and why does she look like Elena ?" Ric sighs remembering  the promise he made years ago . 
"Don't worry about that, ok its not your problem " . Damon  scoffs  "what is it that your hiding from us ?"  Ric looks at his friend . "In time I will tell you but for now you must trust me " .  Ric leaves with his daughter. As they headed to school she asked in shock.  "So your friends are with vampires  even though you hunt them?" Ric nervously laughs rubbing the back of his neck with his freehand. "Yeah that's a long story". Damon however wasn't  ltoo sure about rics daughter  so he made a stop at the police station. 
At the station Liz saw Damon in her office. "What's wrong Damon?" Damon leans on her desk crossing his arms. "I need a big favor Liz " She sighs, already having to cover up missing blood bags because of vampires. "What is it?" She sits down looking at her trusted friend. "Turns out Alaric has a daughter that he didn't tell anyone about. I need You to look into it." Liz pressed her fingers to her forehead. "That's an invasion of privacy.." Damon simply replied.  "I know but his daughter looks like Elena." Liz pushed her chair back, getting to her feet opening the door of her office. "I can't do that Damon. Not unless she commits a crime. Now please leave. I have work to do."  Damon leaves the room thinking of a different way to find out just who this girl is.
Comments really appreciated ❤️

So much is going on in this ch, there is so many characters - I hope it still has a coherent flow - 😅
Thanks for reading. 😀😘
Tag_@miguelsbrat
♤♡◇♧
Niklaus, or better known as Klaus to his family and friends, just taken a cab to take him to the Mikaelson residence.
He still wasn't sure if he made the right decision to return home after so many years abroad, where he had built a very good reputation and established himself as a prominent young architect making his firm The Wolf Group, as they called themselves, one of the very best. He left it to be run by his partner, Marcel Gerard.
It was one morning after he spoke to Miguel that he made the abrupt decision to take a sabatical year and spend time with the family. Actually, to be precise, with his siblings, as his relationship with his parents was not a good one.
***
Meanwhile
In Rebekah's office, she was looking at the photographs that were to go in the next issue.
"Get me Damon" she said to her assistant Vicki.
"Anything else?" Vicki asked.
"No. I'll be working till late, so you can go. Thanks" Rebekah said.
The eldest of them was Finn, who tragically died in a car crash, at the age 20. Niklaus was their second child. He was three years old when they adopted Miguel.
Rebekah chose to work hard to prove to her father that she can get the fashion magazine up and running and make a huge success of it when she took over. So, at work she was known as the shrew, some of her co-workers would refer to her as a blood-sucker at times. The Mikaelson family was regarded as the most ambitious when business was concerned. Their parents taught their children to be excellent, to strive to excel. To be the best. And they made them proud.
After, Kol, Rebekah and finally Henrik followed.
Miguel fell in love and chose to go to live in San Diego to work after he married. And as his wife died, instead of returning to New York, he chose to go to Mexico City. As for Klaus, after finishing his studies decided to travel the world, finally settling in Europe starting to work as an architect in a small firm.
The Mikaelsons were a big family.
But lately, work was all she had on her mind.
Damon got to her office in a little while, and as he entered the first thing she said was-
"We are professionals and personal stuff should never affect the work-still- I am going to say this, because Elena is my friend and I love her dearly - you're an asshole! If you weren't so damned good at what you do I would kick you to the curb."
"That's not bad. I kind of thought you would dagger me!" Damon said.
"Let's get to work. Look at those", she now showed what she didn't like about those photos and asked for a new photo session with the next month's cover person.
***
Elsewhere
Bonnie and Caroline met Elena for some good old retail therapy. The best remedy when trying to kinda mend a broken heart. A change in style, hair was Caroline's suggestion. Also, they all had already received an electronic invitation to the Mikaelson cocktail night. And they need great dresses for the occasion.
Elena kept quiet about her unusual meeting in the cafe.
*
In the Upper East Side, Miguel met his son at his new school. Cris as he and all his family and friends called him didn't want to go to a private school, and so Miguel enrolled him in the public school recommended by Rebekah.
Cristobal, looked a lot like his mother, very savvy, goodhearted teenager, who knew exactly what he wanted in his life. He was very close his father. The death of Emily, cut them both and glued them even more together. Sometimes Cristobal took more care of his father, than the other way around. Mostly because Miguel was very dedicated to his work.
There were certain things he still needed to do regarding the transfer, and he now dealt with all that.
"There something different about you dad" he said to him when they got out of the school.
"In what way?" Miguel looked surprised at his son.
"I don't know.  But- different! You have a happy face."
"I have a happy face?"
"Yes. Usually it's - just serious." Cristobal said as he opened the car door.
Miguel looked at the watch and he had promised their housekeeper Senora Vega that they would be on time for the evening dinner. "Come on, we are late."
And there was a certain truth, he felt different. The woman Elena that he had met in the cafe was not getting out of his head. He had not felt a tingle in his heart for a woman for a very long time.
***
Greenich Village
Elena returned home later that evening and looked at the dress she chose for the cocktail party. Then at her new hairstyle, running her hands through them, inhaling deeply.
"Stop it!" she said to herself in the mirror, "stop thinking about him. Don't need anyone right now. Good-he looked so good in the three-piece suit- too good. "I am going crazy- what's wrong with me?!"
This man was not even her type. She prefered guys in jeans, with a badboy vibe about them. 'Mike' was completely the opposite. What was happening to her. Rebound thoughts. Totally crazy. Sliding the dress safely into the small closet, she went to the living room and put one of her mix playlists on.
Taking her laptop, she made hetself comfortable on the sofa. It was time to do some work. Lena's Cookie website needed updating. Browsing through the photos of her recent cookie creations made her stumble on a few she had done for her friend Yemaya's birthday. Though she was from Brasil, she was very much into mexican art and so she had requested mexican sugar cookies for her birthday fiesta.
Tumblr media
Thinking of 'Mike', she looked up a recipe from her notes.
Me enamoré de ti, jamás lo imaginaba
Que algun día yo, de amor iba a vivir
***
A couple of blocks away
"Move in with me" he blurted out inbetween kisses and half way to bed disregarding supper.
"Enough of work." Bonnie said closing Kol's laptop nestling comfortably on his lap, pulling him into a kiss.
Kol finished writing the draft of his last research paper.  Bonnie sneaked up on at him with a trey of food and wine.
"Who is joking? Move in with me. I'm serious. I want you here - all the time. It's crazy paying for two apartments, sleeping ovet here- there."
"Ok," Bonnie said,"yeah, let's be practical"
"This is not about being practical," Kol drew his fingers up her cheeks, looking at her dreamily, "I really want you here with me all the time."
"When you look at me that way, I could never say no."
"You drive me crazy" Kol smiled, "At times I can't believe you are real - and you are with me"
"Shut up and kiss me" Bonnie pressed her forfinger on his lips.
She was a person so very open hearted, giving and so loving. He met her accidently, so he thought, as he waited for Rebekah to meet him for lunch at the bar. He didn't know that the Rebekah and the others set Bonnie and he up on a blind date. He complained to Rebekah that he had no luck in the love department and that he had enough of dates that led to nowhere.
He kissed her, and he took that as a 'yes'.
***
Stefan met his fellow journalist Yemaya for a last minute check before he gave in his article for print.
"Stop joking"
"Want to grab a drink?" he asked casually.
"Just one!" she stressed out, "Last night I had one too many"
"Wow- in the middle of the week ?!"he teased her as he knew her rule not to drink during the week.
"We took Elena out to kick her shoes off. She was really down."
"I heard," Stefan said, "I cannot make excuses for my brother, he is not bad-but he makes hell of mistakes."
"All the time!" Yemaya added.
"Yeah, but I am not really into the Damon- Elena talk. Actually, I need a date for a cocktail party?!"
"You got invited too?!" Yemaya was surprised.
"Maybe it was some mistake, but it came from Mikael's official e-mail!" Stefan said.
"Yes. I would like to be your date!" Yemaya accepted happily.
"Good!"- Stefan smiled, and  now waited for her to finish off what she was doing.
 ***
Days went by in a flash, and everyone had mostly work on their mind. Well, not everyone. Elena had something else on her mind, or rather someone else.
The Mikaelson cocktail party started to be the thing everyone started to talk about.
Esther and Rebekah were deeply immersed in the event. Everything had to be perfect.
Esther had invited all her family for a family brunch the day before.
Kol, Miguel and Cristobal arrived an hour before the meal. Cristobal immediately went with Henrik, who was two years older than him and that was a bit strange as he was in actual fact his uncle.
"What is not weird with this family" Cristobal said looking at Henrik wide-eyed.
"I kind of have to get to know Klaus and Miguel- they look too serious" Henrik said.
"Dad can be fun-he just doesn't like to show it much!" Cristobal explained. "Show me the last vynils you’ve bought."
"Come on" Henrik said gesturing to follow him to his room.
*
Rebekah walked in the living room all chirpy, "Gossiped much?!"
"No. Why would you think so?" Klaus said. "Then you have changed- you always had something smart to say about me"
"I did hear already comments about what a dragon you are at work, " Klaus teased, "it's only fashion, but I guess it has to be run with military precision. Father must be very proud!"
"There-you see" Rebekah looked at Miguel, who wanted to stay out of it.
"I hear you have new friends," Klaus said,"kicked the old snobby ones to the curb, I hear"
"I am sick of her snoby friends- yes-I have managed to make proper friends, and if you behave, maybe I will introduce them to you!" Rebekah shot back at her brother tapping him on the shoulder.
Esther walked into the Salon and there was gladness in her heart. All her children were there, and that was a rare occasion in the last years.
Her husband now joined them and they sat down for a very different brunch they all were used to. It was warm, chatty and quite lively.
Esther was counting her blessings, though her heart was not entirely at ease.
***
The next day, the pre-cocktail buzz was already in full flow with both the hosts as well as their invites.
Caroline talked to Elena over the phone about the cocktail party and Klaus.
"He looks really good," Caroline said, "you should check his site- he has done some amazing stuff."
"Caroline, you are telling me that I get into things head over heals like instantly. Rebekah is great, but he is a Mikaelson. Do you really want to get involved with one of them?"
"Elena, I know what you're thinking. Too close to home. Could mess up a great friendship if things go bad"
"Not thinking anything. Ok. I got to go. See you later"
"I will pick you up," Caroline said, "oh, I went back and changed the dress. I am wearing the blue dress - right- Jess is hear to do my hair. I will see you soon."
"Ok." Elena put the phone down.
Elena went to do her hair and make up herself. She was good in anything creative. She decided to wave it a bit and pin one side. She was going for a more natural look, and yet looking glam.
Simplicity has always been her motto. And yet, everything she did never looked simple. From her range of cookies to her relationships. 
The door bell went and Elena was surprised to see Yemaya at the door. She had already been ready and dressed.
"Hey- Sorry. I just had to come" the woman stormed in.
Elena could see that her friend was all flustered. Something major must have happened for her to be coming and not calling.
Elena now waited to hear her spill the beans.
"Ok -I am going to say it- huh- I slept with Stefan. We went for a drink and it was just one drink -and we talked and he drove me home and then we kissed and then we kissed some more and- you know the rest."
Elena didn't understand what was so bad about it. He and Yemaya were work collegues. And that is exactly now what was Yemaya's concern.
"I said I would never get involved with someone I work with."
"Shall I guess what you told him in the morning?! Exactly that?! Right?"
Yemaya nodded. 
***
In the Mikaelson Mansion, Esther Mikaelson was going through the list with her personal party organizer for the afternoon cocktail party the family was hosting for an exlusive charity event for the hospital Miguel and Kol worked for. Just one look from her said volumes when she was displeased with something. When her favourite sister died in the car crash, everyone thought that she would retreat and never come back, as she did go away for a year to grieve and be by herself. The grief changed something in her, she became a recluse, but adopting Miguel, brought her back to life. As he now walked out into the garden, greeting her with a small kiss on the cheek.
"How are you, querida madre?"
"Very well - even better now that you and Cristobal are here." Esther replied.
"This looks beautiful. Thank you for doing this."
"Darling, it is nothing. It's my pleasure. Where is Cristobal?"
"With Henrik" Miguel said and now greeted Kol and Bonnie.
Kol then went on to introduce Bonnie to Klaus and Miguel. Rebekah quickly snatched Bonnie away from the men.
"So, I'm hearing wedding bells from the distance!" Klaus teased Kol.
"Unlike you, I actually want one woman for myself!" Kol threw back at him.
"You haven't changed at all!" Klaus said. "I will leave you two to discuss whatever medical thing you will discuss"
"Bonnie" Miguel started, " she seems to be lovely!"
"What about you? Are you never going to find someone again?” Kol asked his brother.
"I don't know," Miguel said, "maybe"
"What does that mean? Have you met somebody?" Kol continued with the quizzing. "Dr Ruben has set her eyes on you. She's been asking me if you were dating anyone?"
"Please don't play the matchmaker." Miguel warned.
"Don't worry -"
Cris and Henrik came up to them and Kol now turned to them, quizzing them about the band they were forming.
The guest started arriving and Cris now observed how Esther and Mikael, together with Rebekah glided among the guests and how masterfully they played the hosts.
Damon and Stefan arrived together. Krystal made a solo appearance. 
Elena, Yemaya and Caroline entered like a grand trio.
Rebekah was there like a shot and greeted her friends.
"Who invited Krystal?" Caroline shot at Rebekah straight out seeing the woman mingling with some of the guests.
"Father's office - she is the best model and it's about business -if you thought that this was a family thing only, then you are mistaken -come on -let me introduce you to Miguel and Klaus."
Elena's heart dropped when she heard the name, but when she actually saw that it was the man she had met in the cafe, her heart started beating uncontrollably. She tried to keep her composure as Rebekah officially now introduced them.
"Hello" Miguel said, curling a smile at the brunette.
"Hello" Elena muttered and smiled back at him, “I thought your name is Mike?!”
"Uhm - it's Miguel - when we were kids Rebekah would call me Mikey - uhm - I don’t know why I introduced myself using my childhood nickname - just felt like - I suppose being back in New York”
"Oh, you've met?" Rebekah said slightly wide-eyed.
"Yes- a few days ago" Miguel said, his eyes still fixed on Elena.
Se pinta de colores toda mi alma
Con esa dulce luz de tu mirada
Y al verte sonreír, vuelvo a tener fe
Elena nodded, confirming it was so, looking at her friend and then at the suave looking cardiologist.
The waitress with champagne cocktails approached them and Miguel now took the glasses and offered one to her.
"Strawberry Bellini! I think you will like it." Miguel said to the brunette.
"Thank you!" Elena took the glass. She was at ease now. His charm just enveloped her and she didn't care anymore that she had seen Damon and Krystal at the party.
Not standing far from them, Caroline already chatted with Klaus as if they knew eachother forever. He offered her a Mimosa cocktail. 
"You are looking in the direction of that brunette like she had done something to you so disgracefully" Klaus commented since Caroline looked at Krystal off and on.
