*I am really sorry for the slow updates. I'm trying my best but with school and personal shit, it's hard. Please don't give up on this story because I'm not! Thank you all for sticking with it and I hope you guys enjoy this chapter, I really think you will.*

"Here, drink this," Jeremy says as Bonnie begins to sit up after having passed out. He sits on his desk chair beside the bed while Alvina sits on the other side of Bonnie crisscrossed on the bed and Enzo leans against the wall. "Why would you overexert yourself like that? You scared the hell out of me," 

"It's nothing," Bonnie brushed off. "I just got tired,"

"That wasn't you taking a power nap, Bonnie," Jeremy couldn't help but snip. "You passed out, there was no waking you"

"I've been doing a lot of magic lately, it wears me down," Bonnie explained simply. Jeremy continues to give her a look. She rolls her eyes before continuing. "Witchcraft has its limits. If I push too hard, it pushes back," Jeremy glances at Alvina remembering her telling him something similar.

"You just have to get stronger," Alvina says gaining her attention. "You don't get stronger by jumping to the powerful spells. You have to build and build until spells like the one that just knocked you on your ass is so easy you barely have to lift a finger,"

"It seems impossible," Bonnie whispers looking at her. Alvina smiles slowly shaking her head.

"I've been alive for a long time, I promise you that this is not impossible," Alvina reassures reaching for her hand. "I told you I'd show you a thing or two, I'll keep my promise. I'll help you through this." Bonnie's smile starts out slow but begins to widen. "You're not alone in this Bonnie, I promise" Alvina whispers pulling the Bennett witch into a tight hug.

"Thank you," Bonnie whispers.

"We'll start when tensions aren't so high like right now," Alvina says knowing Bonnie is far too worried and concentrated on Elena to even thing about learning magic.

"Ok," Bonnie smiles nodding.

"Get some more sleep, Bon. I know you're still tired," Alvina says patting her arm before climbing off the bed. Bonnie nods laying back down. It wasn't until close to nightfall that Elena finally returned home. By then Enzo had gone to get blood leaving Jeremy and Alvina to themselves. They had left the bedroom and laid together on the couch in the living room.

"Elena?" Jeremy slides out from under Alvina and goes towards his sister. Elena smiles pulling him into a tight hug. Bonnie comes down from Jeremy's room and quickly embraces her best friend.

"Hey, let's go to bed," Alvina says grabbing Jeremy's hand once Elena disappeared to her own room. Jeremy nods following after her. When they get up to his room they see Enzo already laying on the bed with his hands behind his head. "Comfortable?" Enzo hums with a smirk.

"Be more so if you two would join," Enzo slowly opens his eyes.

"Don't mind if I do," Alvina pulls away from Jeremy. She takes her shoes off and trades her jeans for a pair of Jeremy's sweatpants. She climbs into bed and curls into Enzo's side. Enzo kisses the top of her head before glances at Jeremy, who has changed into his pajamas.

He looks towards the bed and notices the only empty spot is on the other side of Enzo. Swallowing his nervousness, Jeremy lays down beside him. Enzo sends him a small smile. The vampire wasn't expecting anything other than this but was pleased when Jeremy moved closer and rests his head on his shoulder. Enzo's arm snakes around him holding both of his mates close.

In the morning, Enzo wakes with Jeremy gone and Alvina sleeping with her head nuzzled in his neck. Enzo smiles holding his fairy closer to him. She sighs relaxing against in his embrace.

Listening, Enzo hears movement coming from the kitchen. He lays in bed for a moment longer before slipping away from Alvina. Before leaving the room he bends down and kisses her head.

Grinning, he sees Jeremy shuffling around the kitchen. He watches him for a moment before speeding up behind him. Jeremy instantly senses him as Enzo's chest brushes against his back.

"Good mor-" Enzo whispers before being taken off guard by Jeremy spinning around and planting their lips together. The surprise only lasts a moment before Enzo is pressing Jeremy against the counter.

Jeremy fought for dominance causing Enzo to smirk before the vampire easily gained control. Jeremy releases a small moan causing a wildfire of desire to course through Enzo.

Over a month Enzo has restrained himself, controlled himself, around Jeremy. Now, through one kiss, Enzo can feel his resolve break. In a heartbeat, Enzo lifts Jeremy onto the counter and slides between his legs. Jeremy grips the back of Enzo's hair leaning into his vampiric mate while Enzo rubs up and down Jeremy's thighs.

Desperately needing to breathe, Jeremy pulls back. Enzo growls, his fingers digging into Jeremy's skin. With Jeremy finally letting him in, he felt it 10x harder to control himself.

"Good morning, indeed" Enzo smirks. Jeremy blushes and turns his head but Enzo doesn't let him hide. "Don't get shy on me now,"

"Well, if this is how mornings are going to go, I might just turn into an early bird," Alvina says from behind them. Enzo turns his head towards her slightly. She walks up and hugs Enzo from behind, resting her chin on his shoulder. "That was hot," Alvina whispers nipping at Enzo's ear causing the vampire to growl.

"Ahem" Alvina spins around and sees Elena standing there looking extremely awkward and annoyed.

"Morning, Elena," Alvina says in the sweetest voice she could muster. Jeremy instantly hops off of the counter, his face beating red.

"Can you not do... anything like that with my brother?" Elena cringes. "Especially where everyone can see,"

"Can you not fawn over Stefan but stare at Damon? Especially so obviously," Alvina retorts without missing a beat. Elena instantly gives her a look which causes Enzo to growl warningly.

"Ok, ok," Jeremy instantly moves in front of his mates. "Elena, I'm gonna kiss who I want where I want. This is my home too. I don't like you making out with Stefan or even Matt when you two were together. Enzo is my boyfriend just like Alvina's my girlfriend, you're just gonna have to get used to it," Jeremy deadpans.

"Is that so, love?" Enzo smirks winking at Jeremy who instantly gets flustered.

"Yeah, I mean, erm... yeah," He mumbles rubbing the back of his neck. "If you're- If that's what you want,"

"For as long as you'll have me," Enzo winks at him.

"What about her?" Elena asks nodding towards Alvina waiting for Jeremy to say something about the statement she had said. Jeremy turns to his fairy before looking back to his sister.

"What about her?" Jeremy asks frowning his eyebrows. "I told you, she's my girlfriend," He says not picking up on what Elena wanted.

"Yeah, Elena, I'm his girlfriend," Alvina says walking up behind him. She hops onto his back causing him to quickly grab her thighs. She kisses his cheek before looking back at his sister mischievously. Elena sighs as Alvina continues to bait her into saying something, anything.

Without saying another word, Elena turns around and leaves the kitchen. Jeremy sets Alvina on the counter and turns towards her. Alvina smirks pulling him into a kiss, crossing her ankles around his waist.

"I know you love Elena but the only thing I love is pissing her off," Alvina whispers. Jeremy smirks laughing a bitch.

"Yeah, I'm starting to pick up on that," Jeremy whispers before kissing her again. Only when Alvina can sense Enzo becoming impatient does she release Jeremy. The moment he's out of her grip he's in Enzo's.

"Boyfriend, eh?" Enzo asks smirking down at him. "I like the sound of that,"

"So do I," Jeremy whispers before moving to kiss him again. Alvina smiles tenderly as she watches Enzo's muscles relax under Jeremy's touch. She knew how desperately he wanted Jeremy to give in, to accept him. While the suddenness had caught him off guard, Alvina could see that they're both extremely happy that they had pushed through some invisible barrier to be together.

"Skip school," Enzo whispers. "Both of you," Enzo says glancing at Alvina.

"You don't have to convince me, baby," Alvina says winking at him. 

"I doubt anyone's gonna miss me there," Jeremy shrugs.

"Let's go on an adventure!" Alvina says hopping off the counter. "A walk through the woods, I can show you my fairy form," She says to Enzo.

"I've seen it," Enzo points out.

"Yeah but I've never really shown you it," Alvina says. "You've never really seen me in my element,"

"It's beautiful," Jeremy tells him. "She's beautiful," He wink at her. Alvina grins bouncing in her spot.

"Well, looks like we have a plan for today," Enzo winks at the pair of them. "Get dressed, we'll leave when you're ready,"  The three of them are quick to get dressed and venture into the woods.

Alvina lead them, practically skipping a few feet in front of them. Enzo gripped Jeremy's hand keeping the boy close to him. They were only in the woods for a few minutes but they could both see how much happier Alvina is.

"Why don't you change forms now, babe?" Jeremy suggested knowing she was antsy to do so. She turns towards them before smiling in nodding. With a few spins, her true form comes to the surface. Alvina smiles in relief as the magic in her blood begins to flow more naturally and her connection to nature begins to ground her.

Enzo realized Alvina had been right. While he had seen her in her fairy form, he hadn't actually taken the time to see her. He stepped away from Jeremy and took in her appearance, memorizing everything about her. He had heard of fairies before but never actually seen one.

"You are so beautiful," Enzo whispers. "But even then, that feels like an understatement" Alvina blushes, her wings fluttering.

"Do you want to go for a fly?" Alvina asks excitedly. Jeremy instantly steps back.

"I'm good, Tink," Jeremy says instantly. Alvina smiles laughing a bit before looking at Enzo. He was about to decline but the hopeful and excited look on her face prevents him from doing so.

"Sure, love," Enzo caves. Her smile lights up her face.

"Trust me, you're going to love it," She says coming behind him. "We won't be gone long, Spaceman, sit tight,"

"Have fun," Jeremy says smirking at the pair of them. Enzo gives him a smile trying to hide his nerves but Jeremy sees right through it. He chuckles as Alvina suddenly takes off causing Enzo to shout in surprise.

"Holy shit!" Enzo shouts his eyes wider than the moon as Alvina weaves through the trees. "Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God," Enzo whispers.

"Relax! I've got you" Alvina giggles taking him higher. Enzo tenses and holds onto Alvina's arms as tightly as he could. "How about a different view?" 

"Alvina!" Enzo shouts as she takes him above the tree line.

"Relax, love, and look" She whispers to him. He forces himself to look. He looks around as she flies the pair of them above tree level but low enough to avoid being seen.

"Wow," He whispers enjoying the view until he looked down and began to tense again. "Ok, love, I think we should get back to Jeremy," Alvina chuckles and kisses the side of his head before flying back to Jeremy. She sets Enzo down and he stumbles slightly. Jeremy quickly moves in front of him. "Oh my God," Enzo mutters.

"I know," Jeremy smiles not letting him go even when Enzo found stability.

"So?" Alvina asks curiously.

"Well, definitely a different form of travel," Enzo commented. Alvina continues to look at him expectantly. He sighs caving in once more. "Yes, I will fly with you again but only every once and a while" Enzo explains quickly.

"Works for me," Alvina says grinning. She hardly noticed her wings picking her up a few inches from the ground in her excitement. "Come on, we have exploring to do," She says before venturing deeper into the woods with her two mates behind her.
