Arabella is rudely awoken by her eldest brother the next morning. Her head was fucking killing her. After rescuing Caroline she went home and drank herself into oblivion. So naturally she woke up with a massive headache, she didn't think is was possible for vampires to get headaches so she never worried about it before, but it appears they can

"Get up!" Damon shouted at her

She groaned and hid under her blanket "Fuck off"

Damon rolled his eyes, walked over to her bed and yanked the covers off her body, making her curl up into a ball and hid her face with her pillow "Come one, we have to go"

"Where?" she questioned, her voice muffled from her pillow

"Well I think it's time you introduced me to your dear husband"

Arabella sat up immediately and shook her head violently at her brother "No!" she refused "Please don't make me talk to him. I can't face him right now, Damon"

Damon sighed "Look, I know that you are conflicted with your feeling or whatever, but he's less likely to kill me of you're there"

"He wouldn't kill you anyway" she told him, falling back on her bed "He promised"

"Do you trust him to keep that promise"

Did she? Truth was she didn't know anymore

She had spent so long trusting every word he said, until one day, he lied, left her for 90 years and never tired to contact her again. So, does she really believe Elijah when he said he wouldn't hurt her brothers? Yes... ok maybe... maybe not

"I don't know anymore, Damon" she sighed and picked the bridge of her nose

"Exactly" he exclaimed "So if you're there then he can't kill me, cause then you'll kill him, right?"

"He can't be killed"

"Whatever" he rolled his eyes "You're coming, so get up and get dressed"

"Fine" she caved "but I'm not going sober, I hope you know that"

"Oh, I know"

When Arabella enters the Lockwook Mansion she feels a pair of eye on here, curious, she looks about the open space at the entrance of the house and soon locks eyes with none other than Elijah's

Carol is taking away to him but he isn't paying her any attention, instead his eyes are trained on Arabella's. It's like anytime she walks into a room Elijah's eyes find her immediately, he wasn't complaining, he would look at her beautiful face all day if he could

It kills him that he messed everything up with her, he has hated himself for it everyday for 90 years, but the damage was already done, there was nothing he could do except wait and hope that, someday, she could forgive him

Arabella had tried to convince herself that she hated him. For months after he left she tried so hard to hate him and after a while she convinced herself that she did

It wasn't until he showed up in Mystic Falls that she realised she never really hated him, it was just easier to say she hated him than to admit she was still in love with him

Before the siblings could move towards Elijah, they get intercepted by Jenna, also making Arabella look away from Elijah "Damon, Arabella, what are you doing here?"

They didn't get the chance to respond before Andie came over and gave Damon a quick kiss on the lips, making Jenna and Arabella look at them surprised

Arabella couldn't help but notice the scarf around her neck and she immediately knew what Damon was doing with the poor girl. She glared at her brother and he only shrugged in response
