Nina Dobrev held a mini Vampire Diaries reunion while skiing in Switzerland.

Who is Kayla Well and what role did she play in The Vampire Diaries?
Kayla Ewell is an American actress known for her roles on television as Caitlin Ramirez on CBS's long-running soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful, as Maureen Sampson on NBC's Freaks and Geeks, and as Vicki Donovan on The CW's The Vampire Diaries.
Ewell first appeared on the television series Freaks and Geeks in 2000, playing Maureen Sampson in the episode Carded and Discarded, directed by Judd Apatow. She starred on the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful from 2004–2005 and has guest-starred on the TV series The O.C., Boston Public, Veronica Mars, Close to Home, and Entourage. She had a role in the film Just My Luck, starring Lindsay Lohan, and in Material Girls, starring Hilary and Haylie Duff, in 2006. She also starred in Senior Skip Day.
Ewell co-starred in The CW television series, The Vampire Diaries for the first seven episodes in 2009. Ewell described her character, Vicki Donovan, to Star magazine as "A really slutty high school student", and "a troublemaker".
Vicki, Matt Donovan's older sister, was a troubled drug addict who was taken care of by Matt after their mother left them. She initially dated Tyler Lockwood but later broke up with him and started a relationship with Jeremy. Damon turned her into a vampire, and she was killed by Stefan. Caroline Forbes found her body, devastating Matt and Jeremy.
When Jeremy was brought back to life, he was able to see and communicate with Vicki. Vicki asks for Matt's help, and Matt engineers a near-death experience to see her. She promised Matt that the original witch could make her return whenever she wanted. However, Matt discovers that the original witch ordered Vicki to kill Elena in return. With the help of Bonnie, Matt makes Vicki return to the Other Side and shuts her out of his thoughts.
Vicki later returns in season five, to ask Jeremy and Bonnie to tell Matt to stop sleeping with Rebekah. She reappears on the Other Side when Liz Forbes kills Matt and is later pulled away from the Other Side in a similar way to Katherine.
Vicki returns in season eight and appears in Damon's mind when he has flashbacks of his attack upon her in the pilot episode. It is later revealed that Vicki managed to escape Hell alongside Katherine and her mother. Vicki went on a killing spree before going to the Mystic Falls Clock Tower to ring the bell and bring the hellfire to destroy Mystic Falls. Vicki is then reunited with her brother and father and completely breaks down.
She had wanted to get out of the torturous Hell by ringing the bell for Katherine, but her family inspired her to become the person she always wanted to be. She goes through with their plan to save Mystic Falls and kill Katherine. Vicki then finds peace in the afterlife with Tyler, where they continue to watch over Matt.
