The Other Doppelganger

Chapter 28: How To Make Her Love Me

These next couple chapters will be written from Kol's POV.

"Wait how can I make her fall for me? She is in a comma, that kinda makes it hard to develop a romantic relationship." I stated.

Making Marie fall for me wasn't exactly on my top 10 things I wanted to do this week. Not even this year. Our relationship was strictly  making fun of each other.

"She can still hear everything you say. I suggest you tell her about yourself. Make her want to care for you. Remember though, all the stuff you tell her has to be true." The witch explained to me.

"Okay and how am I suppose to fall in love with her?"

Marie is cute and all, but she isn't exactly my type. I am into girls who don't constantly drive me crazy.

"Well does she keep a diary? If so read about her thoughts and feelings. Get to know her. I would read it aloud to her so she knows. Express your thoughts and emotions. But if you don't try it won't work." She further explained to me.

"Great we will get right on there. Now Kol be a mate and grab your love." Klaus teased.

I ignored the fact that I wanted to punch him and gently grabbed the unconscious girl.

"Well we should get started right away." Klaus told me when we got in the car.

"How is this going to work? I mean true love doesn't just happen in 2 days." I stated.

"You heard her Kol, you have to he open with the idea." Klaus stated.

"How? I mean we don't exactly he along." I stated.

"I would just listen to the witch, get to know the girl. Let her get to know you."

I could tell Klaus was trying to hold in his laughter. It was easy for him to laugh he wasn't being pushed into loving someone.

I had to try though. As much as my brother has literally stabbed me in the back he is the reason I am here. He is responsible for bringing me back. I owe him my life.

"Okay Klaus I will try to fall in love with her." I finally stated.

Maybe Marie wasn't as much as a brat as she seemed.

Once we were inside I carried Marie up into her room and sat her on the bed.

"Alright I will leave you two to it." Klaus said starting to walk out the door.

"Wait! Help me find her diary first." I told him.

It was a good thing Marie was unconscious because I knew she would be pissed if she found out I was about to read her diary.

I flipped to the first entry of her diary and started reading it out loud.

"Dear diary,
Today I figured out something, something that terrifies me. I am a doppelganger. That isn't all that bad, but it's what goes along with it. Apparently a powerful original vampire is going to want to find me to use my blood. At least that's what some guy who claimed to be a witch told me when he visited me at the orphanage. I want to believe he is crazy, but a part of me knows he is not. Some how I know he is telling me the truth. Today marks the day that my life is going to change. Today my life begins. A life full of fear. Fear that I don't want to have. I don't want a psycho vampire coming after me. I just want to be normal. Why can't I be normal?"

I thought through it and already I was impressed. This girl who seemed to not fear anything at one point feared it all. She used to know how vulnerable she was. She used to fear vampires. She used to want to be normal. This puzzled me.

"How did you go from so innocent and scared, to confident and strong?"

This made me want to keep reading.

I read countless more entry's about her journey from who she was and who she is. It was amazing. This girl has gone threw a lot more than I thought she had. She got kidnapped by a vampire who wanted to earn Klaus's respect and had to fight him off.

Apparently becoming a slayer isn't as easy as I thought. Its actually quite painful. She felt like all her blood was boiling to the point of evaporation. I assume that's the kind of pain she felt when my brother tried to find the loop hole. The training was painful also. The good vampires that helped her train didn't show mercy. They beat her up day after day until she finally was able to take them.

"I didn't know you have gone through all this. That's even before Klaus and I came into the picture. You are one strong girl."

It was weird I am so used to hating this girl, but now listening to her side of the story. It really put things in perspective. I understood why she never let anyone get to close. She had to protect them and protect herself.

Her diary stopped with talking about how annoying she thought I was. How much I got on her nerves. It made me smirk and feel accomplished.

"Okay now that I know your story I guess it's time to tell you mine."

I started when I was human how I was first turned into vampires. Then moved along till I got to the point of my death.

"Silas was a feared vampire for a reason I was only trying to help. They didn't listen though. Everyone only cared about sweet innocent Elena. Her and her brother killed me. I guess in their defense I was going to rip Jeremy's arm off."

I then told her about how I was brought back. My brother forced many witches to look through grimoirs until they found a spell that would bring me back.

"I am know indebted to Klaus. He brought me back. The other side is quite lonely." I explained to her.
