They walked into the History classroom,  Caroline first which made Elena and Bonnie look at her, Elena waved the blonde over towards her usual seat but Caroline just looked behind her as Rai and Isa walked in. Elena furrowed her brow and frowned she didn't like that Caroline had ignored her.

Rebekah also looked up when her brother walked in and she grinned to herself seeing his arm wrapped around the pretty brunette girl. She may not know who she is but she did know that her brother cared about her a lot and that she was important to him.

Alaric looked at the new face, "all right class we have a new student today, please introduce yourself to the class."

Isa didn't make a move to move from Rai's side, and just smiled, "I am Isabella Swan, but you can call me Isa." That was all she said.

Alaric nodded at Isa "very nice, now have a seat and we'll begin the lesson."

Rai pulled her towards the back where Rebekah was sitting and Caroline followed her cousin sitting with her instead of Bonnie and Elena like she normally did, which made the doppelgänger frown slightly. She didn't know who this new girl was apart from her name or why Caroline was following her around all of a sudden plus the new girl was with a Mikaelson which meant in the doppelgänger's eyes that she couldn't be trusted.

Rai looked at his sister, "Bex meet Isa, and Isa meet Bex."

Rebekah smiled at the pretty brunette that she now knew the name of, "Hi, it's nice to meet you."

Isa returns the smile, "Hi, it's nice to meet you as well, I've actually heard a lot about you and its nice to finally be able to put a face to it."

Rebekah smirked, "oh really now?" she gave Rai a look, before looking back at Isa.

Isa nodded, "yeah Rai has told me a lot about you."

Rebekah just smiled at the brunette girl, "well that's interesting but Rai has also told me about you."

***

It was now lunch time and Caroline much to the confusion of Elena and Bonnie hadn't really spoken to them at all that day, she'd stuck close to Isa the whole day in what classes they shared anyway.

Isa had also gotten to know Rebekah a little better since they had the same schedule which meant that they had every class together, and they actually got along quite well, which made Rai happy because the two most important girls in his life got along his twin sister and his soulmate. But then again he knew Bekah would try and get along with Isa knowing who she was to him. But still it made him happy that they got along.

Bonnie tried to get Elena to come with her but the doppelgänger didn't want to be near the two originals so she refused, which Bonnie shrugged at and and went over to where Caroline was sitting with, Isa, Rai and Rebekah.

"Hey Care." the Bennett witch said as she approached the table.

the blonde vampire smiled at her friend, "Hi, Bonnie."

"Haven't really talked to you today, and was just wondering what was going on."

Caroline smiled again, "yeah sorry about that I've been showing Isa around, let me introduce you to her real quick." Caroline nodded to Isa, "Bonnie Bennett, meet my cousin Isabella Swan, and Isa meet Bonnie she's one of my best friends."

Isa smiled at the witch, "Hi, it's nice to meet you."

Bonnie smiled back, "nice to meet you as well."

Caroline smiled at the two, "so Bonnie you are welcome to join us if you want."

"I'd love to but I can't just leave Elena alone, she refused to come over her with me, so maybe another time?"

Rebekah made a face at the mention of the doppelgänger, which was noticed by Isa. "Yeah of course another time then.".Caroline answered before Bonnie walked back to the table that Elena was sitting at which was their usual table.

Isa looked at Rebekah, "not a fan of this Elena girl huh?"

Rebekah shrugged, "not really, she stabbed me in the back... literally and I'm known to hold a grudge so..."

Isa nodded at that "fair enough." they went back to eating their lunch and just making small talk.

After lunch was over the rest of the day went by pretty fast with nothing really important happening, Caroline continued to show Isa around, and Isa stuck to Rai's side practically the whole time unless they were in class, which she would sit next to him in.

Isa was finally starting to understand what having a real mate felt like, and that Bitchface would not have treated her the way he did if she truly was his mate as he claimed she was.

After the final bell rang dismissing the students from school, Rai wrapped his arm around Isa's shoulders pulling her into his side as they walked out of their class, they were meeting Caroline out front since she had a different class that period, and it was all the way on the opposite end of the school.

***

Caroline smiled as the couple approached her. "So Isa how was your first day as a whole?"

Isa smiled back at her cousin, "pretty good honestly, went a lot better than I expected."

Caroline squealed at that, "Yay! so I'm heading to the grill to catch up with Elena and Bonnie since I didn't really talk to them much today, you two are welcome to join if you want."

Isa looked at Rai, because she knew they were hanging out for a while. "could be fun but it will be later before we join you."

Caroline nodded accepting the answer, figuring the two were going to hang out for a while and do a little catching up of their own. "okay that's fine, I'll see you two later."

Rai pulled Isa into his side again as they walked towards his car. He was taking her to his little home away from home, the place he went to get away from his siblings if he wanted to be alone, only Kol and Rebekah knew where it was.

Rai wanted Isa all to himself for a bit anyway. He opened the car door for her and helped her into his car, before rounding the car and climbing into the driver's seat.

Isa as soon as he was in the car held her hand out wanting to hold his hand while they drove which he immediately complied to and she laced her fingers through his,.this was also something that bitchface never did with her. The most be would do was wrap his arm around her and that was it.

He only let go of her hand once they arrived it was a small little cozy house, it was very remote and private, he cut the car off and walked around to open the door for her.

"here we are, darling, my little home away from home, it's where I come when I want to be alone, and beside Rebekah and Kol you are the first person that I've brought here."

Isa smiled at him and kissed his cheek once she was out of the car, "it's cozy, I like it."
