Falling In Love With Elijah Mikaelson

Chapter 11

I woke up and changed before I could go out the garage Jenna walked in and lectured me about being high and how I am being like Jeremy. I just pushed past her and made myself sushi.

"Jenna, this is my only way to forget a bastard so please, don't treat me like I am a child." I never looked up once while making my food. Jenna just walked over and we spoke about my problem.

Elena came in and asked if she was adopted, Jenna stayed silent. She was, my mother told me but warnes me to never tell a soul. I finished making the sushi and put them in a lunch box for tomorrow.

Stefan warned me about the other vampire in town. Great another one. I walked out the house after throwing my phone on the couch and heading to school. I was late, I slept in til lunch. I walked into Mr Saltzman's classroom and sat on a desk.

"Your late."

"Yep but I had problems so not my fault." I looked at the book in his hands, it was uncle's journal. "Before you read that can I ask you something?"

"Sure." He looked up and smiled at me but that soon faltered when my question was voiced.

"Vampires, are they real?"

"Isabelle, vampires don't exist."

"They do. So do the myths, like witches and sirens."

"Are you high?" He got up and walked over to me and made me look at him. I was but only a little.

"A little but what I said is true watch!" I grabbed a bottle of water and poured it over my hand. He quickly shut the door and took the bottle from me.

"You don't just show something like that to someone." I laughed before shaking my hand dry.

"I dry fast, it's alright. I just need some advice on vampires."

"Like?" He leaned on his desk as I looked down.

"How do you stop it, like your emotions like they do?"

"They turn it off, like a switch. Sirens should be able to do it too."

"I can't, I've been trying and failing, Mr. Saltzman. I just... I just hate it! I want my emotions off, help me please."

We spent all of lunch trying to turn off my emotions, eventually it worked and I thanked him before leaving. I went to class and waited for school to end. As it ends I go straight home, lie on the couch and stare into nothing.

Night fell and I went on a walk. I got to Mystic Grill and seen Elena getting in her car and a man watching her. I walked over and tapped his shoulder.

"Huh? Oh hi."

"Hey, stop staring at my cousin's car, creep." I folded my arms as he grabbed my arm and dragged me into the darkness. He pinned me and went to bit my neck. I didn't show any reaction.

"Aren't you scared?"

"Nah, just finding it funny a vampire is trying to bite something very useful. A siren-witch is rare and valuable, you could sell me but I must warn you." I grabbed their neck and flipped them over my shoulder and walked away. "I fight."

I went home and got changed into a short light blue dress, a black choker and my black heels. I done my make-up natural and heard a noise. I walked out the garage and seen Elena about to be eaten and Stefan saving her. It was the bastard from before.

I sat with Elena and Stefan on the couch while Damon walks about. Damon mentioned using Elena as bait to draw out the vampire at the dance. We all went and I stood in the corner while Damon, Elena and Stefan enjoyed themself. I snuck out and walked about the school. It was 80s or something themed. Not my style so I chose a loner option.

I kept silent, the only noise was from my heels hitting the ground. I went to the cafeteria and sat down, head on the table with eyes closed. I was relaxing my body, I go to parties but I don't dance. I just stay silent and watch. I felt something along my back so I sat up and looked around. Nothing.

I changed the way I was sitting, my back was against the table and I was sitting on a chair. I layed my head back and looked to the ceiling. It felt like a hand against my back, not an object. I closed my eyes and tried to relax again. I heard 2 people talk, something about looking like Katharine and having fun. Elena.

I got up and ran to the party room. I walked in and listened closely. I heard the conversation, Elena went through a door so I followed. That bastard followed her, I had to protect my sister. I saw him throw her about like a rag doll until she stabbed him with pencils, my emotions clicked back on within seconds.

I took my heels off and ran over to Elena and ripped the guy off her. Stefan and Damon joined and attacked the fuck out the guy. They tortured him while I grabbed my heels. I put them on and kept an eye out for anyone. I seen a girl peaking so I snuck away. I seen Alaric and waved.

"What are you doing out?"

"Parties aren't my thing, sorry Mr-"

"Call me, Alaric."

"Ok."

I walked away and saw Alaric talking to Damon, Damon compulsed him but it didn't work. He walked away and Alaric kept walking. I skipped over and poked his hand.

"Smart teach."

"You watched?"

"Like a child to a rainbow, you can't look away." I giggled as he took me back to the party before he left again. I walked in and over to the punch, I helped Jeremy serve for the rest of the night.

After the party, I walked home while the others drove. I wanted to be alone, when I reached the house I refused to go in. I went on a walk for the entire night before finally walking in the house and sleeping on the floor in the living room.
