Jeremy was walking outside. After his meeting with Veronica he didn’t want to go straight home. He told Alaric he’d go see Bonnie and since Ric would definitely check his alibi he was now on his way to Caroline’s.
When he was almost there he saw there was light burning upstairs. A window swung open and a guy, who Jeremy didn’t recognize, climbed over the edge and climbed downstairs using the pipes. He landed on his feet, but then lost his balance.
For a moment Jeremy considered helping the guy, but then decided to stay put. The guy scribbled up and walked away.
Jeremy pulled out his phone and dialed Bonnie’s number.
“Jeremy, what are you doing? Do you know what time it is?” Bonnie mumbled sleepy.
“Do you know there was a guy in the house?” Jeremy asked quickly.
“Of course, that’s Keith. He came by for a nightly visit” Bonnie answered. “It’s a habit”
“Oh” Jeremy said sheepish. “Well…could you open the door?”
“No” Bonnie said. “Caroline’s mom expects me to be a good girl. If she thinks I’m inviting boys in her daughter’s room, I’m screwed. If you want to talk, we can talk tomorrow, at school”
And before Jeremy could answer, Bonnie had hung up.

I could kick myself. Why the hell had I done it? Like the stupid thing was any use to me anyway. Of course I knew why I had done it: boredom and a source of entertainment. These two things were precisely the reason why I had done many of the things I had done in my 1000 years of existence.
Now I was running from werewolves. You could say I was on their "most wanted list" which was definitely not a good thing. Werewolves hunted in packs and are a very loyal species. It was impossible to know how much of them were after me. Of course I was no stranger to being on the run which is why I never really had any real relationships. Before this…well that was a very long story indeed…
