Ally Gilbert (1)

Ally's POV

"Alessia hurry up, or I will just come in," Jeremy called pounding his fists on my bedroom door once again.

This was the third time this morning that he had done this and I still hadn't budged from where I was in my room. To be honest the first time he knocked I went back to sleep, the second time I actually got up and got ready, now at the third time I was ready.

"Don't get your knickers in a twist Jer, I'm ready," I chuckled opening my door to see my younger brother.

He technically wasn't my brother but we were brought up as siblings even though we were actually cousins.

"Finally," He sighed, "Now come on we need to get to the Salvatore's."

I knew Damon and Stefan were vampires, and I also knew they were in love with my doppelganger. Well technically I'm her doppelganger but who likes technicalities.

Sadly the two men decided I would be the perfect replacement for the girl that tore apart their relationship. Truthfully I forgave them for it, I guess if the love of my life left, I would want someone to take the pain away. The only problem was I never personally liked Stefan, not because he used me he just could never be himself- a vampire.

Vampires are a predatory species and, I fear them, but Stefan wants to be anyone but himself, and that's not a person I want as a friend. Damon on the other hand was ever so tolerable.

The Salvatore boarding house wasn't too far from where Jeremy and I lived, and it was a nice day, so we decided to walk there. When we arrived there we just let ourselves in seen as they didn't care and wouldn't hurt us. Well at least they wouldn't hurt me, but they would happily hurt Jeremy.

"Hey," I shouted as Jeremy closed the door behind us.

We walked down the corridor to the living room where the two Salvatore's, Alaric, Caroline, Bonnie, Tyler and Matt were sat around obviously showing how late we were. Usually I was here first as the others were usually invited around after me, and most of the time I'd drag Jeremy with me.

Taking a seat in the room, Damon smirked at me in his usual way. Both of the Salvatore's liked me but Damon attempted to get my affections at every chance he got. This included him trying to get my attention all of the time, which meant he smirked at me a lot too.

"So why are we actually here?" I questioned.

"The originals are here in town as we know and they are throwing a ball tonight and we're all going to it," Damon stated.

I rolled my eyes. This was a new one, whenever there was a party of some sort he'd try to talk me out of it not drag me there.

"Am I allowed to go?" I asked.

Everyone knew what I meant. Damon had a tendency to be too over protective and force me to stay at home so I wouldn't be hurt. Sadly I never listened to him, and I never got hurt badly. I could stand up for myself and I didn't need an egotistical vampire to be my body guard.

"Course not," He sniggered.

Of course, he'd say that. I saw it coming as he hated me being a normal teenager but I'd find my way around it.

"Damon, the more you tell me not to go to this ball, the more I want to go. And why can't I go, Elijah would want to see me, and Klaus wouldn't dare hurt me and nor would Rebekah. Then there are just the other two brothers, and I'm sure Klaus has them in check," I smirked.

For the next five minutes Damon ranted on about the dangers of me going before he gave in and spent the ten minutes afterwards ranting on about the precautions we would have to take to keep me safe. To be honest I wasn't listening resulting in Jeremy having to elbow me in the side so I listened.

It was boring as I didn't like the concept of everyone risking their selves for me. If the originals wanted me dead then I would be; there is no point in trying to put it off.

I wasn't suicidal or anything of the sort but I believe there was a reason for everything, and I wasn't going to get in the way of that.

"So Ally do you understand what you need to do?" Damon questioned.

"Nope, but if I have to be with one of you two for the whole night or I see you at every corner I will kill myself. Just let me be a teenager and enjoy my life with my friends and not creepy vampire stalkers," I smiled innocently.

For the rest of our time there we talked about the originals and the ball before I decided it was time to take Jeremy home so we could get ready for the ball. The others were going home as well so they could get ready at the same time as us.

The walk home was quite quick and when we got there we began to get ready. I had one of my 'Mothers' ball gowns that I could wear tonight. It was a dark green, fairly thin dress with a black pattern on the top half and a black piece of fabric underneath that could be seen in the front. I really liked it even though I wasn't very girly but it was my Mother's and she loved it.

When I left my room ready for the ball tonight I went to the living room to see Jeremy and Alaric stood there discussing how to tie their bow ties.

"Would you like some help?" I chuckled walking over to them.

"Please," They smiled together.

I started with Jeremy's tying it properly before going over to Alaric and tying his up. I smiled at the two men who looked very good in their suits.

"There you go," I smiled back.

"Thank you Ally, you look beautiful," Alaric said with a soft and warm smile on his face.

After Jenna died Alaric tried his best to be a guardian to us. It wasn't as if he owed it to us to move in and care for us, but more we owed it to him. He didn't need to do anything to actually care for us but we gave him the opportunity to have company and we loved him like family.

We did the final touches to our outfits before Alaric drove the three of us to the Mikaelson's mansion. Obviously I had met Elijah, Klaus and Rebekah but I had never met the two other brothers that had only recently been un-neutralized.

When we reached the mansion I smiled at the two men before making my way into the building ahead of them.
