“What’s going on here?”
y/n rolled her eyes.
“They’re groceries, Damon. I know you’re old, but I would honestly think you would recognize food.”
“No need to be sassy about it.” He grabbed a box and showed it to her. “Though I don’t think hair dye is edible, even for vampires.”
“What’s the big deal?”
“I’m just curious! Why did you buy hair dye?”
“Can’t a girl experiment with a new hair color?”
“Sure, I guess so, but I’m just confused as to why.”
“Do I need a reason, Damon?”
“What’s going on here?” Stefan asked, stepping into the kitchen.
“Mind telling Damon to lay off?” y/n replied, going back to putting the groceries away.
“What did you do now?”
“Wait, since when is this my fault?” Damon questioned. “I was just curious as to why our dear sister purchased hair dye while she was at the store.”
“It’s her choice, Damon.”
“You’re not at all curious? She has amazing hair! Why does she want to dye it?”
“Artistic choice?” y/n said, frustration evident in her voice. “Boredom? Having the exact same hair for a hundred years? Looking the same for a hundred years?” She glared at the older Salvatore from over her shoulder. “I don’t age, and I’m getting sick of looking at the same face every single day. I want something new and different.”
“We’re supposed to be blending in, trying to act normal, remember?”
“Yeah because you’ve done a great job of that, Damon.
Damon rolled his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest.
“So you think a bright new hair color is going to do it for you?”
“It’s at least a start,” she growled.
y/n forcefully shut the fridge, shoving her way past Damon to get out of the room. She sped to her bedroom, needing to get away. She ran a hand through her hair out of frustration.
She had been living with the Salvatores for years. They referred to each other as siblings, but the truth was that Stefan and his friend Lexie had helped her out when she first transitioned and had allowed her to travel with them. That meant she also had many interactions with Damon. Eventually, they came up with the story that she was their sister. And she loved living with them - she wouldn’t trade them for anything - but sometimes they had a habit of being overbearing.
y/n sensitive ears picked up approaching footsteps, and while she couldn’t see them, she could tell who was approaching. y/n turned around and walked into Stefan’s waiting arms. Out of the two brothers, y/n always got along better with Stefan.
“Why is he such a dick sometimes?” y/n muttered, making Stefan chuckle.
“Because he’s Damon.”
y/n shook her head a little before sighing.
“I’m tired of hiding.”
“I know. We’ll figure something out for you, y/n.”
“Don’t bother.” The two pulled away. Damon waved his phone a little at them. “I just called Caroline. She should be by soon with the necessary stuff to help you out.” He tossed y/n the box of dye she had purchased. “I expect to see a picture when it’s done.”
