The Eldest Gilbert (1-2) •DISCONTINUED•

162 Candles

I get out of bed and start writing in my journal when Elena walks in. "Come on we have to give our statment." I glare at her throwing my journal on my bed. I walk past her, hitting her with my shoulder. I get downstairs to see Jeremy coming to me. I brush past him knowing that I can't tell because of Damon. I go to my car when Jer runs and gets in mine. "Amelia what was that?" I look at the steering wheel knowing for a fact if I look at him i will start crying. "Nothing Jer just leave it alone." He nods his head and I drive to the police station. We pull up seeing that Stefan and Matt are all ready here. I get out of the car and walk past them looking to the ground. I hear Matt ask Jer, "Whats her problem?" I run inside and sit waiting to be called back. Jer sits on one side of me while Stefan goes to sit on the other I pull Matt down next to me. Matt looks confused but stays there. Stefan looks hurt and looks to Elena but she looks away. We get called in one by one until it was my turn. "Have a seat." I sit down looking at her. "Okay so how did you find out the Vicki left town?" "Jer told me." "Did she seem out of the ordinary to you?" I shake my head, "nope." She nods. "Do you believe that she left town?" I wanted to say no but I couldn't because of Damon. "Yes." "okay now can you stay here I need to talk to you about something." I nod my head and she goes out and tells them that they can leave. She shuts the door and says. "A vampire killed Logan." I let my mouth drop because I didn't know that. "Um okay wow. So what does this have to do with me?" "Well we want you to join the founders council." I think about it for a moment then decide, "I would love to. Just we can't tell Jer or Elena I don't want to drag them into this. And keep it on the low." She nods her head then her phone starts ringing. "Let him in." I look back to see Damon walk in with a box. I turn away angry. "Uh could you get the door for me?" She ask. "Yea sure." He closes the door and sees that i'm here. "So I understand from Mrs. Lockwood that your uncle is out of town?" I snort and she looks over at me. "Oh sorry its just I find it funny that his uncle left town after Logan. You know." She nods her head. "Um yes he is but I spoke with Zach. He filled me in and asked me if I could bring this to you." I hold in a chuckle. She takes the box and opens it and says, "Vervain." "Um sheriff. I have a question." She looks over at me and says. "Yea what is it?" "Um okay so vervain is a weakness and can make it where they can't control others but can it get rid of the other compulsions as well?" She thinks for a moment. "No I don't think it can why?" Damon holds his breath. "Because if you give it to your circle members but they have been compelled before the vampire could make them do something even after the compulsion." She thinks for a moment. "Your right." I smile and smirk at Damon. He ask. "I hope this is enough. Its all that we have for the moment." She hesitates, "it's a small circle that Amelia just joined." She looks at me and smiles. I look at Damon and can see he is trying not to cause a scene. "Really? Amelia I didn't know that." I look at him hard and say. "Thats because we broke up." He holds his breath in. "I think we are going about the facts wrong" He sits down. "Why do you say that." I ask, "could it be possible that they found a way to walk in the sun?" I hear Damon hold his breath. "Is that even possible?" She say, "We have gone over every other option. We have to think that they may be walking in the daylight."

I walk out of the meeting with Sheriff Forbes when Damon grabs my arm and pulls me into the woods. "What the fuck are you thinking Amelia telling her that the vampires can be walking around in the sun." I glare at him and he sighs. "Look..." "Stop. Now. Leave me alone." I walk out of the wood and go to my car.

I walk downstairs to see Stefan asking Elena, "Do you need a ride to the grill tonight?" "I do." They look up to see me standing at the edge of the stairs. "I don't want to drive so your taking me. I will be waiting by the car." I walk past them and go to the car and wait. He unlocks in and I get in. "Why are you here Amelia?" I look at him. "I'm trying to move on, Stefan and I want to get so drunk tonight that I can't walk so just leave me alone." I turn my head away. "I am sorry Amelia." He turns up the music. He pulls to a stop and we get out. We walk inside and he goes to talk to Matt while I go to the bar. Damon spots me and pulls me outside. I try to rip my arm from him bit he grabs it tighter. He looks into my eyes. "Don't move and don't make a sound." I stay still listening. "Okay so Amelia to get rid of our vampire problem you will stay with me until you see this girl. The cops will bring her outside and we will both kill her to be trusted. Go back inside until I tell you to kill." I walk back inside forgetting why I was outside. I see Elena and groan. I walk up to the bar and order 5 shots. I down them all Damon walks over to me. "Follow my lead." I nod my head. We sit down at the bar when a blonde girl comes over. "Okay these shots are a bribe. What are you really doing in Mystic Falls?" I chuckle at that. She looks over at me worried. "Did you compel her? Damon leave her alone." She goes to take me away but I stop her. "We dated. Like actually dated but he betrayed me so he is explaining to me why." He looks at me confused. He looks back at the blonde. "Have you tried the brittle? It wins awards." She looks annoyed. "Cut the crap." "Okay I have a diabolical master plan." She takes in a deep breath. "What is it?" I answer for him. "Well if he told you it wouldn't be very diabolical would it?" I smirk. Damon just looks at me confused while the blonde is getting annoyed by me. Damon taps my leg and we watch as the sheriff walks over and injects vervain into the blonde. Damon stands up faking being confused. "What are you doing" They walk out and Damon grabs me and slips past the officers. We go and hide watching them. She breaks free of the officers holding her. Sheriff Forbes starts shooting her seeing as it isnt working Damon hands me a steak and whispers. "Kill." I run up behind her stabbing her underneath the heart. She turns around and Damon stabs her right in the heart. She falls to the ground and I walk up to the Sheriff. "Are you okay?" "Thank yall. Get it in the car quickly." Me and Damon lift her and put her in the car.

Sheriff walks up to us. "Pretty handy with that stake." "Just reflexes." Damons says fake blushing. I roll my eyes and say, "Yea but since I read that journal started to practice with dummys." I lie. She walks away and I go out to the parking lot to see that Stefan left. "Amelia wait." I turn around to see Damon running at me. "Let me give you a ride." We get in the car. "Who was she?" "What?" "Who the fuck was she?" I demanded. "Stefans best friend." My head snaps over to him. "What the fuck Damon! You compelled me to kill his best friend. When the fuck will you leave me alone!" He goes to touch my shoulder but I pull away from him. He pulls up to his house. "Why am I here?" "Come inside we can talk there." I walk inside and start yelling, "Damon I hate you so fucking much. All I am is a fucking toy to you. You swore you wouldn't compel me anymore. You fucking swore!" He goes to grab me but I move. "No fuck you Damon. Fuck you. If you talk to me again I will fucking kill you." I turn and walk out tears running down my face. I slam the door behind me and go to walk home. I walk down the street when someone starts driving next to me. "Hey need a ride?" I look over to see a guy I haven't seen before. "Yea." He stops and I get in. I give him the directions to the house. "So who are you?" He looks at me. "Alaric. Alaric Saltzman. And you are?" "Amelia. Amelia Gilbert." "Oh so your my student helper." I look at him confused. "I'm the new history teacher." I nod my head and he pulls up to my house. "Thanks for the ride." "No problem." I walk inside going straight to my room. I lay down and fall asleep.
