Sharing secrets like crushes amongst friends is normal, one of the only normal things that could happen in Mystic falls... except when you confess to your friend that you have a crush on their girlfriend.

Sienna looked at Caroline, at a loss for words. She thought about when she had first gotten to know Lexa, how Lexa was pining over Caroline. They had feelings for eachother, but not at the same time.

"Oh my god-" Caroline blurted, covering her mouth. "Why did I just tell you that?! You are literally Lexa's girlfriend!" The blonde admitted as Sienna frowned. "I am.." She sighed. "But I'm also your friend."

Lexa was brushing her hair, as Jeremy was standing in the doorway, talking to his sister. "I can't believe Tyler Lockwood is a werewolf." He admitted. The girl shrugged, "We're not sure about that yet. The only thing we know for sure is that Mason Lockwood is." She insisted, obviously keeping her knowledge of Sienna, a secret.

"It should be enough easy for us to figure it out." Jeremy replied as Lexa frowned. "Jeremy... Elena and I said that we wouldn't keep things from you anymore. That doesn't mean that we want you involved in it." She sighed. "By definition of being in this family, I'm involved." The boy declared.

"This is dangerous, Jeremy. I would really prefer if you would stay out of it." The siphoner admitted as Jeremy sighed. "Alright. Just saying."

Caroline walked through the hallway, finding Liz carrying some boxes. "Are you off today?" The vampire asked. "The Historical Society Volunteer Picnic is today. You're the one who signed me up." Liz replied, with a smirk. "I know. I just assumed you'd bail." Caroline confessed. "No. I'm gonna spend the whole day with my daughter."

"You're gonna pretend to be a mother?"

Liz sighed, "I'll bring my gun if it gets rough. Come on, give me one day. I've been buried in work mode, I've barely seen you." She insisted. "Well be warned, I'm in a mood." Caroline replied, sass in her voice. "Goody for me."

After a pause Liz asked, "What was Lexa doing here so late last night?" Caroline looked confused, "Lexa wasn't...um...Elena was here!" She declared, realising that Liz must have seen Katherine. "She just needed to talk. Her and Stefan are going through a rough patch." Liz nodded before she asked, "Is everything okay with you?"

"I'm fine."

"It's just lately you seem different." Liz replied as Caroline frowned, "I'm not different, I'm fine."

"I know you think I don't notice these things but I do. What's going on with you?" Liz asked. Caroline huffed back, "You know there's pretending to be a mother and then there's reality. Let's not push our luck, okay?"

It was the Mystic Falls Historical Society Volunteer Day. Preparations were underway, as Carol Lockwood stood behind a podium to give a speech.

"This is all part of the historical society, continuing efforts to give back to the community. Thanks to the generous donation of the Fell family. We are now standing on the sight of our newest public park. Thank you to everyone who has shown up today to lend a helping hand. Thanks."

Sienna, who was watching from the audience, felt a tap on her shoulder. She spun around to see Mason. "Dad? Hi." She admitted, a puzzled look on her face as she didn't expect to see him there. "Hey Cece, can we talk?"

Moments later, the Lockwoods were away from the crowd, conversing privately. "Look Sienna, I don't want you near the Salvatores anymore. They're bad news, and I don't want you to get wrapped up in their drama." Mason insisted as Sienna raised an eyebrow, "You can't be serious." Mason sighed, "You know I am."

"You know you can't just pretend to be my father when you feel like it! You're either all in, or just not my Dad." Sienna huffed. Mason frowned, "But I am your father." He told her. "If you're my father, then why did you abandon me!?"

A silence fell upon them for a moment, as Mason sighed. "What?" The young Lockwood snapped. "There's something that I haven't told you." He admitted. "Well.. what is it?"

Mason avoided his daughter's gaze for a moment, before finally meeting her eyes. "You're.. not just a werewolf. You're also a guardian." The Lockwood confessed as Sienna raised an eyebrow, "A what?"

"A guardian is a protector, they're bonded to a particular person and their instincts are always to protect them." He explained before concluding with, "You're bonded to Tyler."

Sienna's mouth fell open, as she processed all of this. "You started to show signs of being a guardian at a young age, and couldn't stand being away from Tyler, so Carol and I decided that it would be better if you stayed with them, keeping you with Tyler."

Sienna nodded, understanding. "Why.. didn't you tell me this?? All of my life I have thought you hated me.." She trailed off. "I love you, Sienna. I was ecstatic when you came into my life.. but I knew keeping you with Ty, was for the best. I didn't realise that keeping this from you would affect you so much." Mason concluded.

"Is this why.. I can sense when Tyler is in danger? I thought I was just crazy.." Sienna admitted. "That is exactly why." Mason replied, his expression softening. The Lockwood girl sighed, visibly frustrated that Mason had hidden this information from her, her entire life.

"Look.. it's very rare, but you can form supernatural bonds with those you're incredibly close too. I'm worried you could form bonds with the wrong people." Mason added, as Sienna waited for him to go on. "Like the Salvatores... Like Lexa..."

This struck a nerve in Sienna. "You can try and subtly tell me that I should stay away from Lexa, but it's never going to happen. I love Lexa, Dad- she is the best thing that has happened to me!" Sienna blurted, before realising she had never told Lexa this, herself. "While Lexa is involved with the Salvatores, she is going to be the death of you, Cece." Mason declared, clearly worried.

Sienna just rolled her eyes, "You're being crazy." She decided, before turning around to leave.

Lexa, Elena and Caroline were talking while they walked towards a veranda, which they begin to paint.

"So suddenly, she's in the running for Mother of the Year just when I'm trying to avoid her the most. I'm babbling, you don't want to hear all this." Caroline trailed off. "Oh, no, sorry. Then what happened?" Elena asked. "Well, I was a bitch which is par for the course with us. So, how are things with you and Stefan? Anything?" She asked, as Lexa snorted at her bitch comment.

"No, not since the fight. He's been pushing me away because he thinks that Katherine might get jealous enough to hurt me. I just don't know how to change his mind." Elena sighed. Lexa frowned, unaware that Elena and Stefan weren't actually fighting. "You said that Katherine's dangerous. Maybe he's got a point." Caroline replied.

"She is dangerous..." Lexa confessed, as she thought back to the night Katherine attacked her. The Gilbert felt a shiver down her spine, before she grabbed onto Caroline's arm, in fear. Caroline looked at Lexa confused, so the brunette let go of her arm. The Forbes instead put her arm around Lexa, half embracing her.

"Yeah, I know that she's dangerous and I know that he's just trying to protect me but it feels like giving up and I just..." Elena sighed. "Just what?" Lexa asked.

As Elena painted, she looked at Stefan. The vampire looked back at her, as Caroline and Lexa noticed this. "Oh, oh. Longing looks are being exchanged." The siphoner observed. "I'm gonna go talk to him." Elena said, already getting up to walk over to the Salvatore. "No, Elena. I think it's a bad idea." Caroline blurted, but the brunette was already gone.

Damon approached Lexa and Caroline. "What's her problem?" He asked. "Don't worry about it." Caroline replied, sternly. "Why are you being such a bitch to your mom?" The Salvatore then asked. "Don't worry about it." Caroline said, again.

The trio then watched as Elena and Stefan broke out into argument. "Oh no.." Lexa sighed. "Relationships are about communication." Damon shrugged.

AUTHORS NOTE

So it's official, I'm working on a Legacies spin off for Cruel Summer!

But I am curious, if Caroline and Lexa were to have a daughter, what would you hope her personality would be like?
