The Gilbert Boy

Chapter 38

~Jeremy point of view~

Matt, Tori and I were at school when April young, pastor young's daughter came up to us.

"Hey Jeremy, Hey Matt." She said.

"April? Is that you?" Matt ask.

"Yeah it's me Matt."

"What are you doing here?" I ask her.

"Well I'm sure you heard about the explosion at my dad's cattle ranch."

"Wait what!" Tori said kinda loud April look at her "Oh sorry." she kinda hide behind me.

I grab Tori waist and pull her to me "what she mean is no we haven't heard this terrible news." I said.

"Who is she?" Said April.

"April this is my girlfriend Tori, Tori this is April she was a good friend of our before she went boarding school." I said.

"Nice to meet you April" said Tori.

"Nice to meet you too. You and Jeremy make a cute couple." April said making Tori blush a little.

I kiss Tori on her check and said "I know right. But anyway are you staying in town for now on?"

"Yes in fact I came here to register so I should go and do that. See you guys later."

(After school)

We were at the salvatore's house when Tyler suddenly show up bleeding from his chest. He plopped himself on the couch. Tori sat next to him.

Tori started to pull out the wooden bullets from his chest. "So what the hell happened to you?"

"I don't know this guy name Connor show up to my house, I shake his hand and the glove burn my skin."

"It must have wolfband on the glove." I said

"So this connor guy must be a really good hunter." Tori said while pulling out another bullet. "These bullet have weird marking on them."

She gave me a bullet and I showed it to Stefan. "This kind of marking can be deadly to even an original vampire."

"So this guy is some serious shit." Tori said

"Seem so, did you get all the bullet out." Tyler ask her.

"Yeah you should Probably go take a shower tho." Tori replied.

"Thank you."

~Elena point of view~

Matt and I were setting up for the memorial service St the church. I saw April, I use to babysit her all the time. I tired to comfort her but the sensation of her pulse made me run to the bathroom and puke. Blood puke was all over the bathroom and my dress. I called Damon to bring me a clean dress. Someone knock on the boor I was freaking out and trying to clean the bathroom as fast as I can.

"Elena it's Damon, I got your clean dress."

I open the door slightly and toke the dress."Thank you." I saw a strange man looking at us I guess he was the other guy knocking on the door "Oh sorry I spilt something on my dress and had to Change."

"Oh it's quite alright." He then walk away for some reason.

After I put on the clean dress Damon and I went outside. He gave me a blood bag but I couldn't stomach that either.

"What's happening?"

"It must be because of your doppelganger blood. You need to drank human blood from the vain."

The memorial mass started. The mayor invited April to say a few words but she didn't show up. I got up and took her place. When I start to speak, I smelled blood and started to fang out. Stefan took me away from the podium and stayed close to me. All the vampire smelled the blood but Damon told us not to turn around we were been watch. I couldn't control myself, I was so hungry. Matt offer his blood to stabilize me during the funeral. I only drank a little because I didn't want to hurt Matt.

Suddenly Tyler goes up to the podium and the hunter shoot him but barley misses his heart. Carolina ran up to help him. The mayor called an ambulance for Tyler. Damon chased after Connor and Tori ran upstairs to help April who was stab in the stomach. Tori did a healing spell on April and quickly step away because she was hungry like me. Jeremy took her home and I went to help April. Carolina though this was a good time to teach me how to compel someone. I compel April to forget all about connor and been stab in the stomach.

(At the grill)

Once I gave Tori a blood bag she was Fine.

"How long have you been without blood?" I ask her.

"A couple of days.." she replied.

"Why? You know your weak with it."

"Because I forgot about it Okay.."

"Don't forget about it again. I can't lose you." I Kiss her lips.

"You won't lose me Jeremy."

We went to the grill to see Matt but we also saw Connor. Tori grab my arm tightly but I told her that I would protect her. Connor was at the bar and he noticed the bite marks on matt neck and he can up with some excuse. I noticed a tattoo that seem unfinished going up his arm. I tired to show Tori but she said she didn't see anything on his arm.

Later Matt had a little gathering for everyone we lose the past couple of months. Which was super depressing but it felt like a weight lifted off our shoulders.
