Elijah nodded at Erika’s suggestion for the art room ‘’sounds good to me. But, keep it quiet. We dont need anyone else seeing what you are. It could lead. To mroe complications than needed. ‘’ Elijah siad ‘’oh don't worry brother, thats what im here for. Even if shes mad at me’’ Rebekah’s said and chuckled with a cheeky look on ehr face ‘’very well. I’ll be in touch. If Niklaus tells you anything please inform me right away’’ Elijah said before leaving and letting Erika do what she needed to do to get on Emily’s. Good side.
Meanwhile Emily sighed as hey pulled up to the class. ‘’It’s fine Ty, you dont have to help out… the art club is pretty big, we should be able to fix. Everything up. The art auction will have to be postponed though. They destroyed all of the art work for it. And we dont have enough to replace it all. Plus with that jackassesz parents to replace stuff, we should be able to get it all done in a couple days’’ she siad with ahsrug as they walked into the school, the halls were empty since everyone was in class, she sighed and went down tot eh art room, as she walked intot she saw the new girl and the repaired room ‘’wha-…? H-how?… when did… who did?’’ Emily asked, at a loss for words as she saw the room and the restored art work… ‘’what… hapepned in herE? How.. how!?just how!?’’ She aksed as she looked aorund.

Erika smiled at Elijah and nodded as he left. "Now, we have second period across the hall so let me-" Rebekah began. "Actually, if you don't mind covering for me, I'm going to the art club" she said. "Right now?" Rebekah asked. "Yes, the sooner I accomplish what I need to, Emily sees me in there, the sooner I get into the Gilberts good graces" she said. Rebekah sighed and led her niece to the art room before going to cover for Erika and then going to class. Erika used brown paper to cover the windows so no one else saw her using her magic while she got to work.
Tyler sighed "Yeah but Carter was my responsibility too Em, and I know how much this means to you. Money from his parents isn't going to repair the personal art work those club kids did either. Not that I'm any good but still" he said. Once they got to the school, Tyler walked Emily to the art room and saw the brown paper covering the windows and he opened the door, his eyes widened seeing it looked like it was never touched. Erika spun around hearing Emily and Tyler come in and smiled. "Well you're welcome" she began. "The who, was me, the how, also me" she added chipperly. "But how did you do all this in an hour? These are the original art pieces Carter destroyed" Tyler asked/remarked. "Well you both know of Klaus, he isn't the only hybrid in the Mikaelson family tree, just the nastier one" she said with a wiggle of her fingers in the air, the hanging pictures lightly moved. "You're a witch, like Bonnie?" Tyler asked. "Yes, and I'm also a vampire, I was turned a year after my father was, but being a siphoner witch I maintained my magic, and like my Uncle Nik, the only thing besides being hybrids that I share with him, is my love of art" Erika explained.

Emily was gobsmacked, she moved over to one of her art pieces that had been completely torn apart, it was a portrait of her parents.. she took a moment before breaking into tears ‘’ i thought it was completely gone’’ she said softly, Emily wasn't one to cry, the only time she did was when she learned her parents were dead, after that.. she hadn't cried at. All… she set the painting down and moved to the new girl. ‘’I so dont care that youre a mikaelson right now’’ she siad gently and hugged her. ‘’Thank you so much for this… you have no idea what this means to me’’ Emily siad and sighed a bit before letting her go ‘’I’m Emily Gilbert by the way, this is Tyler Lockwood. Welcome to Mystic Falls. And welcome to being my new fave person right now.. sorry Ty… ‘’ she siad and chuckled a bit as Tyler bumper ehr shoulder ‘’would you like to come over tonight? I have dinner plans with Tyler after school, but my aunt Jenna wants to do a sex in the city marathon tonight. Why dont you join us? We can get to know each other a bit’’ Emily offered before someone walked in ‘’hey!’’ Stefan said as he came over an dlooked aorund ‘’wow. What happened in here?’’ He asked ‘’Uhm… our new friend here got it done with some.. magical help’’ she said gently and stefan nodded ‘’ah.. i see.. well in that case.. i wont pry.. but.. this is amazing..’’ stefan siad gently with a smile and nod in the new girls direction ‘’this is stefan by the way. A good friend of mine’’ she said ot Erika and smiled ‘’i never got your name by the way’’ stefan mentioned as he looked at her with a soft smile on his face.

Tyler joking scoffed at Emily when she said the new girl was her now favorite person. "First Salvatore, then me, now her, jeez Em make up your mind" Tyler teased as he bumped her shoulder. Erika let out a small oof when Emily hugged her, but Erika somewhat hugged her back. Erika smiled brightly at Emily and wiped her tears away "Its very nice to meet you Emily, and I'm glad I could do it. I'm Erika" she said with a small chuckle. "Sure I'd love to, I've seen a few episodes but not many" she agreed. Erika paused when she heard Stefan's voice, she had to act the part on this one, she hated lying to people, but she had to be very close lipped right now. Erika held out a hand to Stefan "Its nice to meet you Stefan. I'm Erika, Erika Mikaelson" she said.

Emily smield gently and chuckled at Tyler, ‘’well its nice ot meet you Erika, hopefully you dont try to kill elena and Emily’’. Stefan said and Emily smacked him ‘’rude! Not every mikaelson wants to break a curse you know’’ Emily siad and stefan laughed ‘’true. ‘’ stefan siad and Emily. Rolled her eyes ‘’ignore him, hes a pest smetimes’’ she siad to Erika as stefan fake offence ‘’that hurts.. and here i thoguht we. We’re friends.. .so. Mean’’ stefan said and Emily rolled her eyes again ‘’whatever!’’ She satted and sighed. ‘’You doing okay though?’’ He asked mroe seriously ‘’well im not in toruble for anything and that jackass who will not be named, is being sent to military school.. and the art room is now all fixed.. so. Yeah.. im okay. Now.. maybe i can get throguh this day without wanting to kill soeone else’’ she said and shrugged, stefan shared a look of ‘yeah right’ with Tyler ‘’so. Erika, whats your class schedule like?’’ Emily asked as she grabbed ehr bag and the four of them left the newly fixed art room just as the bell rang again.

Erika lowered her hand to her side and laughed a bit at what Stefan said and Emily's teasing to him. "Actually Emily's right. I have no intention to kill anyone, perhaps my Uncle if it comes to it. Actually, speaking of the other one. Elijah asked me to ensure you and Elena stay safe, as he promised. As a hybrid myself, I intend to help him honor that promise" Erika told them. "So is this what the art room was about?" Tyler asked. "Yes and no. Im not very good with meeting new people, and seeing as Emily flipped me off this morning I hoped fixing this would help, but it wasn't my only directive Tyler. I may help my family keep you lot safe, but I won't hide behind it either" she explained. Though the way Stefan acted...reminded Erika of good times they had back in the twenties. She wished she could tell even Emily about it, but she knew she couldn't or she'd have to compel the girl, and she was probably on vervain if she knew about the Salvatore's. "Yeah he's really toast, his parents were absolutely pissed" Tyler said with a laugh. Erika blinked out of her reverie as Emily spoke to her and grabbed her binder. "Well I have history first, I'm supposed to have English, third I have....math. fourth period is lunch, fifth is biology and lastly I have accounting" she told her.

‘’Oh sweet1 you got all my classes today! Well minus math, im in AP math, but we got the same ones for the rest fo the day after math. Tyler’s in your math class though. To be honest.. math..not his strong suit’’ Emily siad and teased a bit, she laughed as Tyler picked her up and threw her over his shoulder while walking infront of Erika and stefan ‘’dont mind them. They do this often. You’ll get use to Tyler randomly grabbing her and kidnapping her’’ stefan siad to Erika as he caught Emily’s bag from falling. ‘’Tyler lockwood! You put me down now or so help me i will rip off your head!’’ She siad and laughed, though to be fair, she totally loved being held by Tyler, not that she’d ever admit it out loud. Stefan chuckled and shook his head as they walked off to math, Emily’s ap math was just a couple doors before the math clas shim, Tyler and Erika were in. ‘’oh! Hey Erika! When it’s lunch I’ll give you my address for tonight’s marathon. You dont gotta bring anything, knowing Jenna she’ll have loads of food there ready to go. Just wear comfy clothes and brings something for tomrorow, you can sleep over tonight too’’ she siad before Tyler set her down and stefan gave her her bag. ‘’ come on, ill bring you to math, let the lovebirds have their little moment’’ stefan siad an dteased, only to be flipped off by Emily.

Erika smiled at Emily glad to have someone that would take to her other than her aunt she could learn from. "Well maybe between the two of us we can teach him a thing or two" she teased making Tyler give her a look. "Okay that's ir" he said and threw Emily over his shoulder, hauling her down the hallway towards their next classes. Erika chuckled and shook her head "Yeah I noticed he did that this morning too. Not that she really argued" she joked. When Emily mentioned Jenna and food, Erika smiled politely. "Okay, I'll be sure to feed before I come over anyways. Oh here-" she began and took out a small piece of paper and wrote down her number on three spots, ripping them apart and handing one to each of them. "Not just for this, I mean, let me know what time and text me your address. But if anyone from my family, especially Nik happens to appear. Tell me immediately so I can inform Elijah" she told them. Tyler teasing scoffed at Stefan's remark as Erika joined him "Thanks" she said. Tyler grabbed Emily and pulled her over towards her class "better get in there before I throw you around again" he teased at her.

Emily rolled her eyes a bit and smirked ‘’Im begining to think you like ‘throwing me aorund’. A little to much Lockwood’’ she stated and teased. ‘’Not that. Im complaining’’ she said with a wink before kissing his cheek ‘’see ya later Ty’’ she said ina flirty tone before wlaking into her AP math class. She could faintly hear Tyler groaning as he left, which made her snicker abit, she was usually pretty flirty with Tyler, but she figure her feelings were pretty one sided so at this point she was just having fun with tthe flirting.
by the time lunch rolled aorund Stefan was highly bored of school. Which sully hapepned, but either way he was gonan stick aorund till school ended, he told Erika she could walk with him and hang out with his group oof friends for lunch, they met up with matt and Bonnie and stefan introduced them to Erika befor ethey all went outside to find a table. For lunch, since it was nice, they decided lunch outside was the better option once they got their food. Caroline and Elena soon met them outside and sat down, saying hi to terika and having stefan introduce them. Then Emily and Tyler met up with them, and as usual Emily sat on Tyler lap, if she wasnt sitting on his, she sat on her sisters or caroline,s it was her thing to do with them. ‘’Hey Em what are you doing Saturday?’’ Caroline ‘’as far as i know. Nothing. Why?’’ She asked ‘’can you come help me clean out my. Closet? My dad sent a bunch of stuff last week and i havent gotten to it’’ she asked ‘’sure but im stealing stuff just so you know. Erika, you should join, actually why not have elena and Bonnie joint o, we can make it a girls day’’ she suggested ‘’oh my god! Yes! ‘’ Caroline siad happily, and stefan smiled seeing how excited the blonde got. ‘’So Erika,where you from? And why move to this crap hole?’’ Matt asked and Bonnie whacked him ‘’what!? I gotta ask’’ matt laughed out.

By the time lunch rolled around, Tyler was over the day, he'd had football practice in the morning, he played three varsity sports and school wasn't exactly one of them. Tyler got in line and grabbed some lunch before he went and sat at their usual table outside, Matt already holding it down for them as usual. Emily as expected sat on his lap, so he turned sideways a little so he could still eat and see his food. Erika enjoyed her classes, though she noticed Rebekah taking notice that Erika and Emily were talking, she simply texted her aunt that her idea worked and left it at that. When lunch came around she met up with Stefan and a couple others he introduced her to before they went outside, though she didn't take much for food since she didn't exactly need it. Erika looked at Emily and Caroline and shrugged "Yeah I don't see why not" she said simply. When Matt spoke to her, Tyler laughed "Dude! Way to just drop a bomb on the new girl jeez" he joked. Erika chuckled and shook her head "Its okay" she told Tyler and looked at Stefan "Does he know" she whispered, enough for his vampire hearing to pick up on it. "Actually I have family here, that's why" she said, unsure if Matt knew like the Gilbert twins did.
