"Telling someone the truth
is a loving act."
Mal Pancoast

The vampire makes pancakes for breakfast while the girls get dressed.

While both girls adorn green coats and black ankle boots, Bri wears ripped black skinny jeans, and a blue vest layered on top of a tighter black one, her hair loose, and Skylar wears black t-shirt tucked into blue high-waisted jeans, her hair up in a bun.

Before they part ways, Damon comments, "Once again, you two are dressed both the same, and completely different."

"Good fashion sense isn't limited to one person," Skylar immediately quips, Bri bursting into laughter as the vampire rolls his eyes in response, although a smirk makes its way onto his face.

"Okay," Bri starts, looking at Damon, "Please look after Skylar."
Turning to look at the teen, she continues, "Please keep Damon in line; and don't be afraid of the vampires you'll be meeting. Two of them are good vampires, and one of them is good when it comes to me."

Damon nods his head in an exaggerated manner, Bri sending him a quick glare before she continues, "Have a good day, you two. I'll see you later."

Giving the pair a quick hug, Damon stops her before she can leave.

"Be careful," he says, the phrase becoming a habit.
The banshee smiles at the vampire, kissing him on the cheek as normal before responding, "Of course."

Skylar watches the interaction, noticing the adoration in Damon's eyes, and the tenderness in Bri's.

As soon as she and Damon climb into his car, Skylar comments, "You're whipped. You two are adorable though."

Rolling his eyes, the raven haired vampire pulls away from the banshee's house, and Bri drives off to the Gilbert house with a smile on her face.

A beat of silence passes between Bri and Jenna, the latter glancing between her cup of coffee and Bri, while Bri absorbs the woman's rant.

"So," Bri starts, pausing for a moment before continuing, "you think Ric is keeping things from you?"

"Yes," Jenna immediately responds, sighing before adding, "No... Maybe... I don't know. It's just- I've got John whispering things in my ear, and he's planted doubt."

Bri sighs, deciding to be honest with her friend, "Jenna... There are, unfortunately, some things going on that you aren't aware of; and while I don't want to break anyone's trust by telling secrets that aren't mine to tell, but I will tell you this:
"The world you live in is brimming with secrets of a different kind- the supernatural kind."

Jenna stares at Bri for a moment, and scoffs, "Supernatural? Are you kidding me?"

Before she can continue, Bri interjects, "I wish I was, but I'm not. And I can prove it to you because I'm part of the supernatural world."
