The eldest Gilbert is back from the city, staying with her sister and brother Elena and Jeremy.
♡
I own nothing but the character Laura Gilbert, all rights go to all the amazing people who work on 'The Vampire Diaries'.
"Yeah yeah just reminiscing about all the times with mom and dad"
"Maybe one time we should go to the lake house with Jeremy, you and I without all the drama and supernatural"
"We should but I don't know if - Stefan needs help with dinner"
"Elena Gilbert, I know you can't cook and Stefan is doing all the cooking"
Laughing could be heard in the background from Stefan.
"Laura goodbye"
"Bye"
Laura hangs up and walks to the kitchen to see Jenna trying to bake a cake. She lifts it out of the oven, smoke following behind but quickly moves away to wash some dishes, waiting for the cake to cool down as the brunette examines the very burnt cake. "Um Jenna, is this chocolate cake?".
"No it's lemon cake" Jenna says turning around and gasping "How did I not see that". Jenna sighs loudly, annoyed with herself and her baking skills.
"Can you get Jeremy to pick up a cake for me?" Jenna says, still staring at the cake in disappointment. "Yep" Laura pulls out her phone but looks at Jenna. "Hey don't worry, Elena can't bake a cake either". Jenna's mouth curls into a smile. "You and your mom got the baking skills".
Can you pick up a cake for us and where are you? Love you - Laura
Yep, At the Grill, Be home soon with a cake - Jeremy
"Jeremy is getting a cake and I better go get ready for this dinner party".
Jenna nods, throwing the burnt lemon cake away while a certain annoying Uncle walks in. "Dinner party huh?".
"You always weren't skilled with baking". "And you always aren't skilled with good qualities" Jenna fires back.
John rolls his eyes before turning to Laura "Who invited you to the dinner party full of vampires and why are you going?".
"Damon and because I don't have anything else to do besides drink at the Grill or talk to you".
"What's wrong with that". Laura glares at her uncle before going upstairs to change into something fancy for the dinner party.

Jenna calls from the bottom of the stairs "Time to go Laura". The brunette checks her outfit in the mirror before walking down the stairs to her Aunt. "Ready". They hop in the car and head to the Salvatore House.
"I was showing Elijah around town and he asked about you". Laura frowns, wondering why the original would want to ask about her.
-
Laura and her aunt walk into the house when Andie, Damon's girlfriend opens the door with a smile. "Jenna, Laura" She greets.
Andie and Jenna walk into the library, talking about all sorts of thing but Laura walks around the house admiring artworks and decorations. "Admiring the lovely architecture?". She looks up to meet beautiful hazel brown eyes.
"Elijah isn't it?" Laura says with a smile. "And you would be Laura". She nods and continues to walk along the hallway while Elijah follows. "Seems you have an interest in architecture and artworks".
"Mmhm" The brunette mumbles.
The original is about to say more but Damon stumbles upon them. "Anybody invite John?" They both shake their heads causing Damon to roll his eyes. "He invited himself then and by the way Dinner will be ready soon, Andie said to join her in the dining room.
Damon rushes off to another room with a determined look on his eyes, Laura takes notice but Elijah seems carefree. "May I?" Elijah holds his arm out for the brunette to take. "Sure" She links her arm with his.
Laura looks up at him with curiosity while he just smiles down at her.
Laura and the original enter the dining room, sitting at their seats across from each other while Alaric has a uneasy look. "You okay?" The brunette mouths to him which receives a reluctant nod as Damon walks in with a smirk.
The dinner is pleasant with chatter and nice food but every so often Alaric would glance at Damon then Elijah causing Laura to have a weird feeling in her stomach. Jenna is on her right and Damon on her left at the head of the table.
"The gentlemen should take their drinks in the study" Andie says, standing up.
"I have to say the food was almost as wonderful as the company" Elijah says, directing it to Andie but glancing at Laura quickly. "I like you" Andie flirtatiously replies, waiting for the men to go to the study.
Jenna hands plates to John, and her and Alaric have a disagreement over something. Laura walks to catch up with her Aunt but smiles at Alaric to reassure him.
"Jenna?"
"I don't want to talk about it Laura". The brunette nods with a frown.
Jenna grabs the cake out of the fridge while Laura checks on the pudding that Andie was making. "Sorry, guys, dessert is taking longer than I thought. I usually just unwrap food" Jenna shouts out to the others. The pudding still needs a couple more minutes.
As Laura and Jenna work on dessert, the conversation continues to flow in the dining room. "What I'd like to know, Elijah, is how do you intend on killing Klaus?"
"Gentlemen, there's a few things we should probably get clear right now. I allow you to live solely to keep an eye on Elena. I allow Elena to remain in her house living her life with her friends as she does as a courtesy. If you become a liability, I'll take her away from you and you'll never see her again" Damon rolls his eyes at the original as Andie walks back in, notebook in hand and sits down.
"Okay. My first question is when you got here to Mystic-" Alaric stabs Elijah with the dagger from behind. He lets out a scream before veins cover his whole body. Damon looks at Alaric with surprise but John and Andie have a horrified look on their faces.
Alaric pulls the dagger out and places it on the table. Now, get rid of him before Jenna comes back with dessert".
"All right"
Jenna and Laura don't hear any of this commotion but something else happened to the eldest Gilbert.
Jenna smiles before pulling the pudding out and serving it on plates for Laura to carry out to the dining table. "It looks amazing, I need to ask her to bake for me". The brunette sighs before trying to balance some plates to carry to the other room but something seems to stop her abruptly, dropping the plates causing them to crash into the floor. "Laura?" Jenna walks towards her.
