The Eldest Gilbert (1-2) •DISCONTINUED•

The Night of the Comet

I wake up to hear Aunt Jenna ask if she should go hair up, or down. I go to get up but fall back down because I got dizzy. I yell to Aunt Jenna, "Hey I don't feel good. I'm staying home!" "Okay well i'm leaving and so is Elena so bye." I stay laying down until i hear the lock click from the door. I grab my phone to see a message from Damon. Good morning Amelia hope you have a good day at school. I text back not going to school dont feel to good. Well how bout i pick you up and we can hang out at my house. Okay.

I get up and put on my black sweatpants and my giant pink hoodie. I go to walk out of my room when I grab Damons jacket. I get down stairs and put my grey vans on. I walk outside and lock the door. I sit on the swing outside while waiting for Damon. I doze off when I feel someone pick me up and take me to their car. "Hey princess", he says while putting me in his car. "Hey bear." I mutter as I snuggle up to the seat. He chuckles at my reply. I doze off again until I feel the car stop. I get out and go over to Damons side. I lift my arms for him to pick me up. He scoffs but picks me up anyway. When we get inside we are stopped by his uncle, Zach. "Damon who is she and why have you brought her here?" He questions slightly moving to his phone. "I'm Amelia. I'm here because i'm sick and he wanted me to come over." I smile at Zach. He looks shocked at what I said when Damon just looks at me like I did something wrong. I lay my head on his shoulder. "Later Zach." Damon runs us to his room when he tosses me on his bed and lays by me. I curl up to him and lay my head on his chest. He starts to play with my hair. "So Damon how old are you?" "23" "okay now you ask a question." He gets quiet then ask. "Do you believe in vampires?" I stop playing with the hem of his shirt and look at him. "Yes Damon I do. I believe because I read my old relatives journal. His name was Jonathan Gilbert. Do you believe?" "Ahh yes I do princess. What is your opinion about them? What do you think of them?" I lay my head back on his chest and answer, "I believe that they aren't all bad. Like instead of feeding on people they could drink blood bags or if they love someone and that person loves them they drink from them. As long as they keep their humanity and don't hurt me I don't mind them. In fact I wish I could become one. What about you Damon?" He stays quiet with that and sits up. "Amelia I have something to tell you and please don't freak out." I sit up and look at him. "I won't freak out Damon just tell me. You can trust me." I smile. "I'm a vampire, Amelia." He shows me his eyes and fangs. I smile more and touch the black fangs under his eyes. "It's okay. I trust you." I lean into his chest and close my eyes. "So your not mad or scared?" He ask while we lay back down. "No Damon i'm not mad or scared because if you wanted to hurt me you wouldn't have saved me." "But if I saved you why do you reek of blood?" I sit up and turn away fast. "Amelia I just wan't to help. Trust me. You can tell me anything." I turn to look at him, tears running down my face. "It would be better to show you. Now this isn't a strip tease. What i'm about to show you no one has seen. Nkw keep in mind i've been doing this for over a year now." I get off of his bed and take off my hoodie. I hear him gasp at all of my scars. I take of my sweat pants and look at the floor embarrassed. I hear him get up and walk over to me. He lifts my face to look at him. I see tears streaming down his face. I go to whip them away when he kisses me. Its not to fast but it wasn't just a quick peck either. He pulls away and hands me my hoodie and says, "how bout we lay back down okay?" I smile and put my clothes back on. We lay back down. I start to doze off but before I completely fall asleep I hear him tell me, "everything will be okay."

I wake up to see Damon not in bed anymore. I get up and head downstairs to hear him talking to Elena. I sit on the bottom step and listen in. "I see why my brothers so smitten. Its about time. For a while there I never thought he'd get over the last one. Nearly destroyed him." "The last one?" "Yeah. Katherine, his girlfriend? Oh, you to haven't had the awkward exes conversation yet." "Nope." "Oops. Well, i'm sure it will come up now. Or maybe he didn't want to tell you because he didn't want you to think he was on the rebound. We all know how those relationships end." "You say it like every relationship is doomed to end." "I'm a fatalists. Hello, Stefan." I scoff and run up stairs. I think to myself "Of course he doesn't see this going anywhere just fucking great." I lay back down in his bed when I hear someone come upstairs. Stefan opens the door to see me laid out on the bed. "Damon! Hey Amelia look at me." I look at Stefan to see Damon behind him telling me to keep quiet that I know. "Hi Stefan what do you need." "Why are you here?" I sigh, "Damon promised me a fun time." I say with fake energy. Stefan grabs my arm and trys to pull up my sleeve when I hurry and move it away before he can see my scars. "Amelia show me were he bit you." He trys to grab my arm again when Damon pushes him against the wall. "Leave her alone brother." Damon sneers. He backs off of Stefan and pushes him out. Damon sighs and says, "Lets get you home." I shake my head and follow him out. I walk downstairs to see Stefan and Zach talking. We get outside to his car when I blurt out, "Do you see this going anywhere or do you see it going to doom?" He chuckles and replys with, " eavesdrop much? And I only told her that because its apart of my act." "Act?" I ask clueless. "The creepy older bad brother. Easy i"m trying to make my brothers life living hell." "Ohhh." I smile as he pulls to a stop. I give him a quick kiss and walk up to my house.

I wake up to someone going through Jeremy's room. I get up to see that Elena has his bong and Jenna rummaging through the rest of his stuff. "What the hell? Aunt Jenna really? Like you didn't do this stuff at his age. Your a hypocrite. I'm going to a friends house. Good bye. I pack my stuff and walk outside and get in my car when I head over to the Salvatore house. I bang on the door to Stefan answering. "You can't be here Amelia its not safe." I scoff at his words. "Let me see Damon. Damon!" I hear Damon rush down the stairs and push Stefan out of the way to let me in. I walk past Stefan when he grabs my arm. I turn around and punch him. "Stop grabbing me asshole." Damon snickers at the encounter. "Race you Damon" We run upstairs and fall onto his bed. "Hey Damon can I stay the night?" "Of course princess." I get up and walk over to Damons dresser and grab one of his shirts. I take off my pants because this shirt goes down to my thighs. I jump in bed and curl up to Damon. "Good night bear." "Good night princess."
