maryland | sometimes good intentions don't come across so well

It was a simple mission. With Klaus and the other Originals gone, Matt and Caroline could retrieve his friend and her ex from the wilderness of the Appalachian mountains. Matt had never been a vampire nor a hybrid, so he didn't know if Tyler could feel a sire bond being broken. But, Tyler was still radio silent and there was no way of reaching him. Sheriff Forbes pulled a string or two and Caroline and Matt had gotten a GPS location for Tyler's cell phone. The only choice that had to be made was whose vehicle would be taken. But, Matt had his two-seater truck so that was a no-brainer.

He hadn't spent any time with Caroline since her birthday surprise and even that hadn't ended well. First Stefan had knocked him out and then he had to bring Caroline back to her house after Tyler had bitten her. Why was he surprised. Nothing in Mystic Falls went off without hitch, why would a birthday in a graveyard?

Matt had offered to drive but this was Caroline and Caroline's car. This meant two things: she drove and she picked the music. He kept his mouth shut as Taylor Swift sat on repeat. At least she didn't just do one song. Maybe once they grabbed Tyler, they'd get a say.

Majority ruled?

Matt couldn't help his mixed feelings for his old friend but, he had to keep reminding himself that Tyler had been sired. All of a sudden, thanks to a spell he still didn't quite understand, (he'd been left out of that plan) that wasn't true any more. Maybe, thanks to that, he could get his friend back. And as a good will gesture, he was going to be accompany Caroline. He'd invited Elena but she was busy. Something about Mr. Saltzman. She said she'd fill him in later. No Elena usually meant no Jeremy (because he knew she'd kill him for taking Jeremy out of state) but that didn't matter because Jeremy was in Denver. That was weird. And it wasn't like they were going to invite a Salvatore.

So, it was just them, the road, and GPS coordinates.

Stefan didn't really care so much about Matt and Caroline. They were going to do what they were going to do. He takes a breath before nodding.

"I'll call Bonnie. And I'll go over to Elena's, see if the Gilbert journals are around."

Normally, Damon doesn't care about them but when they can actually be useful? They hightail it out of town. It's annoying.

"Good plan. Gilbert's always have skeletons." Then again, all founding families had good skeletons. "I'll let you know what I found out about Anna's besties."

He'd hang up but...

"Need me to pick anything up?"

He shakes his head. "Not that I can think of."

"Okay," he says. "Be home soon, little brother." And he finally hangs up to head on over to the Grill.
