The Devil's Doppelg?nger

LUX-LUCY'S PENTHOUSE

The elevator door slides open and Elena walks into the penthouse, she looks around hearing the faint sounds of moaning coming from the bedroom. Lucy walks out tying a robe around her body

Elena looks behind her seeing four naked girls laying in the bed, a feeling of jealousy flows through her veins. 

Lucy: What can I do for you today, darling? Enjoy you little chat with Katerina?

Elena: I wanted to know the truth and I got it. It's not just me that's in danger. It's Caroline and it's Tyler and it's Bonnie. They're all part of breaking the curse. I can't blame anyone else anymore because it's not because you came into town. That's not why everyone that I love is in danger. It's because of me, everything is because of me.

Lucy cups her face in her hands, rubbing her thumbs across her cheeks

Lucy: I won't let anything happen to you. I won't let you die. Do you trust me?

Elena nods her head

Elena: Yes. I trust you, Lucy. More then you know.

Lucy kisses her three times on the forehead before walking past her approaching the bar and pours herself a glass of whiskey.

Elena: Uh, w-what's going on in there?

She points to the bedroom

Lucy: Just having a good old fashioned orgy. You could always.......take your clothes off and join in on the fun

She raises the glass to her lips taking a drink. A light blush appears across Elena's cheeks, she looks away.

Lucy: You gonna wish me happy Birthday?

Elena: The Devil doesn't have a birthday. Do you?

Lucy: I do now. I burned my wings. I feel reborn. I had my re birthday party. 

Elena chuckles

Elena: Re born? As who?

Lucy: Whoever the hell I want to be. It's exciting, isn't it? To new beginnings. Happy birthday to me

She takes another swig of her whiskey. 

Elena: Now that I think of it, I brought you something

She reaches into her duffel bag pulling out a Mason jar filled with a green liquid. 

Elena: Whiskey with a pickle juice chaser

She walks up to the bar, grabbing two shot glasses and pours the liquid into the glasses. 

Elena: It's kinda a Gilbert family tradition. 

Lucy: Lovely! How can I refuse? 

Elena holds up the two glasses handing one to Lucy who takes it. They clink their glasses together and downs the shots in one gulp. 

Lucy: Ahh! Ooh!

Elena: It's not bad, is it?

Lucy: Blimy! Let's find Lilith. She should try this bizarre thing. She loves a salty aftertaste. 

Elena: Oh I can't stay. I still need to go to school. Some of us have a life

Lucy: Oh come on. The party is nowhere near over. It's only beginning, darling. 

Elena: Happy birthday, Lucy. 

She wraps her arms around her neck embracing her tightly. Lucy wraps her arms around holding onto her as tight as she can. Elena pulls away and kisses her on the cheek before she walks back towards the elevator.
