[From here.]

Oh my God no way!

[A pause. Calming down.]

Sorry. I really need to stop doing that.

[braveandstupid]

[laughs a bit]

You really have studied our town. Now I guess I know why.

[cockylittlewitch]

[She nods.]

Yep. Part of my training. My teacher was kind of a walking encyclopedia of magic. Really big on history.

[braveandstupid]

[nods again]

Well, I'm not a witch.

[there's a pause]

But I am a doppelganger.

[cockylittlewitch]

You're a--you mean, like...

[FREAKING OUT ON THE INSIDE.]

[braveandstupid]

Like ... the Petrova doppelganger? For the hybrid curse?

[has no idea that there are doppelgangers -- beyond the ones that are needed for spells]

[cockylittlewitch]

Oh my god. [Yeah, that one isn't so excited as it is...heartbroken. And kind of scared.

Elena will be hugged now.]

[braveandstupid]

[Elena will take all the hugging. Her arms curl up under Billie's shoulders, and she stays close, but still talks]

It's okay. I mean -- the curse was broken and Klaus is dead now, but ... that doesn't mean that I'm ever perfectly safe.

[especially when one of her ex-boyfriends is a little psychotic.]

[cockylittlewitch]

[This calls for tighter hugging.]

No, no, you're safe. I'll keep you safe.

[braveandstupid]

[and she believes it. she matches the tightness of the hug, leaning forward to rest her chin against Billie's shoulder]

I know.

[cockylittlewitch]

[She holds on for a while longer, scared that if she lets go that maybe Elena might disappear. Eventually, though, she's brave enough to pull back a little a rest her forehead against the other girl's.]

There is something, Elena.

[Because with this new info, it doesn't seem as awkward to admit it.]

[braveandstupid]

[she hasn't felt this close to someone in a long time, since Stefan, and there's a part of her that's scared to jump in like that again, Elena trusts Billie. She trusts her a lot.

She can't help the shy smile as she looks down though]

So it's not just me?

[cockylittlewitch]

[Billie smiles a little, too.]

It's not just you.

[braveandstupid]

[looks up with a smile and nods]

Good.

[cockylittlewitch]

[Billie slowly lifts a hand to Elena's face.]

[braveandstupid]

[leans into her hand a bit, before pushing up on her toes and leaning in to kiss her]

[cockylittlewitch]

[a soft hum as she pulls her closer and kisses back

this is so much better than pretty much all the other kisses she's had]

[braveandstupid]

[Elena agrees. In fact, she's going to wrap her arms around her and pull Billie in closer]

[cockylittlewitch]

[Hm. Sitting might make this a little more comfortable, so Billie is going to carefully back up toward her bed, pulling Elena along with her.]

[braveandstupid]

[Elena moves with her to the bed, doing her best to keep close]

[cockylittlewitch]

[When they make it to the bed, Billie sits, guiding Elena down with her.]

[braveandstupid]

[still following her lead, and once they're sitting, one hand comes up to cup Billie's face.]

[cockylittlewitch]

[Billie's hands go to her back as she leans deeper into the kiss.]

[braveandstupid]

[Elena just sinks into it, relaxing almost completely. She's missed being close to someone like that and she wants more of it, taking this as far as it goes]

[cockylittlewitch]

[Her hands eventually make their way up the back of her shirt.

Which is the point when her mind is trying to figure out where she should stop. She's getting close to the line she's not sure if she's ready to cross, she just...doesn't know where exactly that line is.]

[braveandstupid]

[Elena hums into the touch, one hand gripping her arm tightly.]

[cockylittlewitch]

[She breaks away to drag a few kisses along her neck before she dives back in.]

[braveandstupid]

[Elena dives in with her, one hand coming up to slide into her hair gently]

[cockylittlewitch]

[She doesn't stay in the kiss for long. She pulls back and rests her head against Elena's shoulder while she tries to catch her breath.]

[braveandstupid]

[closes her eyes as she stays close, her thumb brushing against Billie's cheek]

[cockylittlewitch]

I can't believe that just happened.

[braveandstupid]

[grins a bit]

In a good or bad way?

[cockylittlewitch]

A good way.

[braveandstupid]

Good.

[a beat as her hand finds Billie]

I haven't ... done this in a while.

[cockylittlewitch]

Me either.

[braveandstupid]

I know ...

[another pause]

We should probably take this slow.

[cockylittlewitch]

[nods]

Yeah, probably.

[braveandstupid]

Slow is ... usually the smart thing.

[cockylittlewitch]

Especially since I haven't--I mean...

[braveandstupid]

I haven't either.

[cockylittlewitch]

[a beat]

Maybe you should...

[get off her lap?]

[braveandstupid]

[glances down and then shifts back with a small sigh]

Right. Probably a good idea.

[cockylittlewitch]

[ Billie sighs too, but it's a very contented kind of sigh. ]

So, does this make us girlfriends or something?

[braveandstupid]

Maybe.

[glances over at her.]

Do you want to be?

[cockylittlewitch]

[ nervous giggles ]

I don't know. [ Billie licks her lips. ] Maybe we should just -- have a few dates first, before we get all...coupley. Ease into it. You know?

[braveandstupid]

Sure. Yeah, that makes sense.

[There's a beat.]

Do you want to have coffee later?

[cockylittlewitch]

Yeah. That'd be great.

[braveandstupid]

Great.

[She grins, before taking a step back.]

Then I will ... see you later.

[And off she goes to go back to the school thing.]
