Jessie's P.O.V

When I first returned to Mystic Falls after my long departure following my parents death, it was hard to look at the house I used to live in. But now, the knots I used to get in my stomach and the lump I used to get in my throat has gone. It doesn't mean I have forgotten my parents or how they died it just means I have learned to live with it. Enough to go back to see my big sister and little brother. I walked up the steps to the and knocked 3 times. Jeremy answered the door.

"Jessie, what are you doing home?" He laughed and tackled me into a hug.

"I thought it was time little brother. I missed you and Elena."

"Elena!" Jeremy shouted over his shoulder.

Elena came running down the stairs.

"What is it Jer? I'm tryi......" She stopped and looked at me.

She screamed loud enough to burst a vessel in her head.

"Oh my god. Jessie. I can't believe you're here. We missed you."

"I missed you guys too."

"Well don't just stand there, come in." Jeremy said moving aside for me to get into the house.

Two guys appeared at the bottom of the stairs.

"Elena, I thought we....." The tall, dark and handsome guy looked at me.

I smiled and he did the same.

"Damon, Stefan this is our sister Jessie." Elena said.

Damon walked towards me.

"Ah...the other Gilbert. I wondered when you would appear." He smirked.

"Stop Damon." The other guy said who I automatically assumed was Stefan by elimination.

"What? I'm just having a little fun. No harm, no foul." He winked.

Elena grabbed my arm and pulled me close to her side.

"Damon, leave her alone." She said sternly.

Damon was about to say something but I cut in.

"No honestly guys it's fine, he's not doing any harm." I said wanting him to tease me a little bit more but trying to hide it.

"I think I'll go upstairs to unpack." I said picking up my bags and heading for the stairs.

I walked into my room and it looked exactly the same as it did 3 years ago. I felt like someone was watching me. I turned round to find Damon standing in the doorway.

"I know what you are." I said.

"Good. Then you won't mind if I come in." He said slowly walking into the room and scanning it.

I watched him walk around the room finding it very hard not to be attracted to him. He caught me staring so I quickly turned away.

"Like what you see. Most people do." He smirked again.

"Are you kidding? I've seen better looking burritos than you." I lied.

"That's quite a strange comparison. Then again, all you Gilberts don't exactly fall into the normal category around here."

"What do you mean?"

"Well your sister is a vampire and your brother is a hunter, not exactly the most normal family on the street."

"What?" I said not waiting for a response.

"You're a vampire." I pointed to Elena when I reached the bottom of the stairs. I looked at Jeremy.

"And you're a hunter."

They both looked at Damon who had just appeared behind me.

"You told her!" Elena said sounding annoyed.

"You didn't." I said.

Her gaze returned to me.

"I was going to tell you once you were settled back in again."

"Don't you think finding this out is a little bit more important than trying to settle in." I shook my head and made my way back upstairs.

Elena tried to follow me but Damon stopped her.

"Let her cool off, trust me I know these things." He said.

Damon's P.O.V

I resisted the temptation to follow her. She looked at lot like Elena and Katherine but there's something different. I can't fall for another Gilbert I already had my heart broken by one when she agreed to go out with my brother but I think I like her.
