Footsteps told Amber the vampires were back. She ran outside and saw them heading her way. She stood on her toes and looked for Stefan. When she noted him she noticed he was dragging someone with him, just like all vampires. Only difference was that the person Stefan dragged was alive and kicking. She struggled and slapped Stefan to get away. Amber ran towards him. “Why didn’t you bite her?” she asked. “Hello to you too” Stefan replied. He pushed Lauren in Ambers arms. “Here, she’s all yours” “You caught someone for me?” Amber asked slightly flattered. Stefan gave her a ‘no, not a chance in hell’ glance, because he knew what she was thinking. “Well, you couldn’t join us and I couldn’t let you starve, now could I?” he said. The other vampires walked around him, leaving a trace of blood. “Don’t worry, I already fed. Sure Klaus will understand I can’t carry two bodies” “Why not?” Amber asked. “You’re extremely strong, so you could’ve brought two people here” Stefan shrugged and walked passed her. Amber turned around and followed him. “I didn’t want to, okay?” Stefan said. Amber nodded. “Just because Klaus tells me to do something doesn’t mean I will” he continued. He stopped, and so did Amber. “What did Klaus do to you when you were alone with him?” he asked careful. Ambers eyes bulged. “Eh, nothing… He wanted to know some things” she said avoiding. Stefan grabbed her arm and forced her to look at him. “What things?” he asked insisting. “Amber, what did Klaus ask you?” Amber freed herself and shot Stefan an annoyed glance. “Let go of me, Stefan. What Klaus and I had to discuss is none of your business. Now back off” she snapped all hostile. Stefan took a step back. “Are you plotting with him? Have you forgotten about our plan?” he asked concerned. “I need to know I can trust you, I can’t do this alone”
Amber looked over Stefan’s shoulder. “I’m sorry, Stefan, I’m a little grumpy. Guess it’s the hunger” She looked at Stefan. “I’m still in, you can count on me”
“Good” Stefan said.
“Now, if you’ll excuse me,” Amber said, “my food’s trying to escape” and she raced away.

The waitress walked through the back door. She was taking a break. She felt two eyes on her and looked aside.
Cas was staring at her.
“Hi” she said. She walked to him. “You were acting strange earlier”
“I’m sorry” Cas mumbled. “You remind me of someone”
“Your girlfriend?” the waitress guessed.
Cas shook his head. “She wasn’t my girlfriend. She was my…”
“Sex buddy” the waitress helped. “I’m Lucy”
“I’m Cas” Cas said.
“Cas?” Lucy said intrigued. “That’s an uncommon name” She came closer to him and took his collar. She dragged him into one of the toilets and locked the door. She threw her arms around his neck and jumped in his arms. She kissed him and Cas forced her against the wall.
“Aaaahhh!” she exclaimed. She pushed Cas away and looked at him terrified.
“I’m sorry” Cas mumbled concerned.
“It’s okay” Lucy said, but Cas unlocked the door and ran away.

The next morning
Cas opened the door of the house and helped Daphne inside. He guided her to the sitting room and put her gently down on the couch.
“You know, I’ve been thinking” Daphne said. “With you around I don’t need a car. Makes things a lot cheaper”
“Can I get you something?” Cas asked.
Daphne shook her head. “You’re here. That’s enough for now”
Cas wasn’t used to that much gratitude and he’d have to adjust to it.
“Actually” Daphne started. “Could you give me the phone? I need to call the locksmith to tell him I won’t be needing his services after all. I gave Zoey her key back”
Cas smiled weak. “I’m glad you made it up with each other”

Cas kicked the door of their bedroom open. Daphne was sitting on top of Mitch.
“Daphne” Mitch said, looking at Cas.
“Don’t worry” Daphne said with a heavy voice. “That’s my husband. He knows I have my needs. It’s not my fault he’s incompetent”
Mitch pushed her off of him and searched for his clothes. Cas turned around and ran downstairs.
“What are you doing?” Daphne asked grumpy. “Come back in bed”
“Are you completely out of your mind?” Mitch exclaimed.
“Oh, please, you knew I was married” Daphne said.
“That was really low” Mitch said. “Get dressed. I’m done here. You go find someone else to consider your needs”
“Come on, don’t be like that” Daphne said.
They heard an enormous crack and they jumped.
“What the hell was that?” Mitch asked.
“Daphne” Mitch said, looking at Cas.
