When The Hybrids Fall In Love.

High Tea With the Original

~~ISABELLA"S POV~~

I wake up to the sound of knocking, ugh Jenna.

"What do you want?" I rub my eyes, opening the door I see a caffeinated Jenna.

"Get dressed, you are coming with me" her highness orders, I don't even have the energy to argue. I quickly get ready for the day and make my way to kitchen in search for the only thing that can make me function: Coffee. 

"Mhhmm... this is good" Moaning happily as I take my first sip of the bittersweet goodness. Just as I start to enjoy my drink Jenna whisks me away with her.  I don't even remember sitting in the car, and yet as I fully open my eyes, we seem to have reached our destination. 

"Huh, where are we?" I think I know this place.

"God, someone could kidnap you and you wouldn't even know" Jenna looks at me shaking her head disapprovingly.      

I glare at her as hard as I could and mutter a 'meanie' under my breath and get out of the car.

Ahead of me, the Lockwood Mansion is filled with people, as I try to figure out the occasion, Jenna brings a formal dress from the car and hands it over to me. I am horrified as I connect the dots.

"No Absolutely no, nope" I shake my head.

"You were the one who wanted to meet Carol first thing in the morning" Jenna tried to reason with me. More likely to get me in the dress.

"Yeah meet, as in two individuals in a room discussing important matters, alone. Not meet, as in talking in open space Infront of dozens of strangers, faking smiles." I try to prove my point 

"Well, the 'dozens of strangers' whom you speak of are towns people, they are going to see you in town at some point, so better do it now." Oh heck, I can't win a losing battle. I sigh, snatching the dress from Jenna I go inside the house, knowing each and every room like the back of my hand.

There is a changing room on the first floor. I quickly slip into the room, without alerting a single supernatural downstairs and look at the dress. Its white. I'm not even surprised at this point, Jenna likes to dress me up in whites since as long as I can remember. She says it makes me look like an angel. Hah, jokes on her.

I accept my fate and wear the dress, nonetheless. Just when I finish there is a knock on the door, after taking my time I open the door which revels Carol.

"Oh my, look at you, you have grown up so much." Carol exclaims

I smile telling her to come in.

"Nice to meet you to Carol, after a long time" greeting her, I sit on the bed. Seeing that I have something to talk about she sits beside me, nodding for me to continue. I had kept in touch with the important people of town, which are; the secret society. Funny name  

" I want to know the progress of the thing I asked you to look for." Straight to point, I look her dead in the eye knowing very well she hasn't even started yet.

"Ah, you see with Richard's situation, I have been a little busy" excuses, excuses.

"He's dead and never coming back, right?" she nods, hesitating 

I smile, "What are you waiting for then?" 

"I will get started right after the party." she promises, and I hum. We go outside the room and Carol descends the stairs while I wait for my dramatic entrance.

~~THIRD PERSON POV~~

The Historical Society's Tea Party has commenced. Elijah and Carol are taking to each other as they sip their tea. When Damon Salvatore makes his appearance, w king in. 

Catching Carol's attention, she goes to welcome him. 

"Damon, what a pleasant surprise" the host and the Salvatore vampire hug, greeting each other.

Carol, then introduces Damon to the original. 

"Hi. Elijah, I want you to meet Damon Salvatore. His family is one of the founding families" Carol informs Elijah.

Damon looks at Elijah nodding in approval, he says extending his hand "Pleasure to meet you" Elijah mirrors the action

Just as they finish speaking, there is a crisp sound of heels clicking against the floor, and a beautiful brunette lady glides down the stairs.

As if someone has pressed the pause, everyone in the room fell quiet, looking at the late arrival. The gorgeous brunette walked with grace and poise. Her elegant dress perfectly outlining her exquisite figure. She was slim but not thin. Her stature confident. 

In her matching heels she walked towards the trio.

"I hope I'm not late" she said, not at all sorry. Her voice put everyone out of their trance.

Carol was the first to react, embracing the beauty, she welcomed her. 

"Let me introduce you to these fine gentlemen" Carol pointed towards Elijah, 

"This is Mr. Smith; he is here for research purposes" and then at the Oldest Salvatore "and this is Damon Salvatore " 

"Salvatore as in Elena's boyfriend?" the brunette questions knowing the answer well.

After getting the expected reaction of grimace from the Salvatore, she introduces herself.

"Hello Elijah, we meet again. And Mr. Salvatore, I'm Isabella Gilbert. Elena and Jermey's cousin" The lady smiles friendly.    

The original acknowledged "Isabella, it's good to see you too" he was genuinely happy to see her here. 

And the Salvatore just nodded his head, finally putting a face to the girl in Jeremy's stories. Although he couldn't help but feel as if they had met somewhere.

"Have we met before?" the Salvatore asked
