The Eldest Gilbert (1-2) •DISCONTINUED•

Fool Me Once

  I wake up to see Damon sleeping beside me. I sigh and push him off. He quickly stands up playfully glaring at me. "Why?" I smile getting up and grabbing clothes. "Because we have work to do." He nods his head sitting on my bed. I look at him and he gives me an innocent look. "What?" I roll my eyes. "Get out I need to get dressed." He smirks at me. "But its not like I haven't seen your body before." Rolling my eyes I grab a book from the dresser throwing it at Damon when he gets a phone call. He ignores it and turns around as I quickly put on an black crop top with dark blue skinny jeans. He turns back towards me with a look on his face that I can't read. I put on my boots and he ask. "Ready?" I nod my head following him out to his car. As he pulls away from my house his phone starts ringing again. Damon ignores it but it doesn't stop. I bang my head against the window. "Omg Damon who the hell is calling you? What do they want?" I groan annoyed. He turns into to his drive way and says, "Stefan is calling me, because the vampire Anna took her." He stops and looks at me. I shrug my shoulders. "Okay lets get to work." He nods his head as he opens the door and vamp speeds inside. I chuckle walking behind him when I get inside I see Damon sitting on the chair and Stefan in front of him. I close the door. "Whats going on?" I ask jumping on the couch. Damon turns to me rolling his eyes. "He lost Elena and wants me to find her." I laugh at Stefan while he pins me against the wall holding my throat. I watch as Damon vamp speeds over to get him to let go. He rips Stefan's arm off of me. I smile while rubbing my throat when he turns to Damon. "Why is she here?" Stefan asks annoyed. I answer for Damon. "Oh because I know better then to double cross Damon." Stefan turns to me pushing me to the wall. Damon comes to help me but i push him away. "Damon you were with Anna you must know where she is living. Please just tell me where I can find her." "Nope. You can go. Really." "You know all I can remember is hating you. There might have been a time where that was different, but your choices have erased every thing good about you, but I also know that you have just as much of a reason to hate me. This all began with me. Katherine got taken away from you because of me. And im sorry." I start laughing at Stefan while he apologizes. They both turn to me looking at me with a questioning look. "Oh im laughing at the fake apology he just saying what you want to hear. He doesn't care about you. He only cares about Elena. Now when your ready to find a way to save Katherine come get me." I walk outside, walking to Bonnie's. 

  I knock on the door to see Grandma Bennett. "Amelia, darling what brings you here?" I move side to side nervous. "I need Bonnie. Is she here?" She shakes her head. "But I know where you can find her, I did a location spell. Take my car and go to this address." I take both the keys and the paper. I go to her car driving to the motel. I burst open the door and window to see Elena and Bonnie. "Damn it Elena why are you here. I came for Bonnie." I feel someone behind me push me and I hit my head on the ground blacking out. 

  I open my eyes to see Damon standing over me. I go to sit up but pushed back down because of the pain. "What happen Amelia?" "I went to find Bonnie but found Elena with her and Stefan knocked me out. How I got here im not sure. Sorry about not being able to get Bonnie for you." I watch as he sits down, pushing the hair out of my face. "Its okay. You tried thats all that matters." I look up to see Elena walking in. I groan as Damon states. "I'm gonna have to change the locks." I grab Damon's hand and he helps me sit up, trying top ignore the pain. "Stage a jail break?" "Stefan." I laugh. "Actually Elena I was there first while Stefan knocked me out." She nods her head walking closer to Damon. "I convinced Bonnie to help you." He shakes his head. "I doubt that." "I'm not going to say that I'm sorry that we got the grimoire without you last night. because im not really." "Well at least your honest." I grab Damon making him look at me, "Don't fall for her tricks Damon." "I was protecting the people I love, Damon. But so were you in your own twisted way and as hard as it to figure we are all on the same side." I stand up ignoring the pain radiating through out my body. "No we aren't. You dont care who gets in the way you will double cross him again." Elena walks closer to Damon as I sway back and forth trying not to let the pain get to me. Elena pushes me backwards so i fall on the couch in pain. "In Atlanta why didn't you use your compulsion on me." I laugh at this. "How stupid can you be? Seriously no matter what he says its because you look like Katherine. Damon if you agree to work with them i cant and wont help you anymore." Looking at me I see Elena out of the corner of my eyes taking off her necklace. 

 "Ask me if I'm lying?" Glaring at both of them I stop Damon before he has the chance to move. "I'm serious Damon. Don't fucking do it." Damon ignores me, walking over to Elena giving her the necklace back. "No animal will stop, by the way, no matter what I do." She sighed and replied, "Then we will deal with it." Groaning I go to walk out when I stop and turn around. "Damon, this was it. This was the last fucking straw. Have fun when everyone turns on you." Walking out of the house I slam the door feeling no emotion at all.  Walking away from the house I go home to talk yo Aunt Jenna. After walking for about an hour I finally get home. Walking inside I call out, "Aunt Jenna can we talk?" Coming downstairs she looks at me confused, "Yea, what's up Amelia?" I don't answer and walk into the living room with her following me. We sit on the couch when I finally speak up. "Well I was wondering if I could go and see an old friend of mine. I won't tell you who or where just incase someone tries to find me. Please Aunt Jenna I need to get away for a while and I will talk to Alaric about him sending me my work." She looks at me and sighs, "Fine only because you haven't been yourself since your parents I really hope that this helps you." Letting tears run down my face I hug her and whisper. "Thank you." She hugs back, pulling me away she smiles and wipes the tears from my eyes. "Your leaving?" I turn around to see Jer looking at me hurt. Running upstairs, I follow him. Walking into his room he looks at me hurt while tears run down his face. "So when were you going to tell me?" Sighing I sit on his bed. "Jer I need to get away for a bit and get better." Looking down, he finally looks up at me asking. "Is it because of me?" Shocked I stand up and hug him, letting him cry on my shoulder. "No. Of course not little bro. This has nothing to do with you okay." He hugs me back and I start crying to knowing that what I said is a lie because I can't face him knowing that Vicki died, vampires are real it hurts that's why I wrote everything in a journal, because he is nosy and I know he will read it. Pulling away I look at him and say, "Hey Jer I have to go talk to Alaric okay? Then I'm going to pack. I don't know when I will be back, but I promise I will come home. Please take care of everyone." He nods his head at me as I back away. Leaving his room I go back to Aunt Jenna, "Hey can you text Alaric and ask him to meet me at the Grill?" She smiles and nods her head as I walk outside, she stops me. "Here take my car." "Thanks." Smiling she throws me her keys. Getting in her car I drive to the Grill when I turn the radio on and the song, 'Numb by Linkin Park comes on. Smiling I turn it up. The song gets finished as I pull up to the grill. I get out of the car and walk into the grill when I spot Rick. Sighing I walk over to the booth and sit down. "So I need a favor. I'm leaving town for a while and I was wondering if you could please send me my assignments. Jenna is okay with it. And please watch Jer for me." "Of course Amelia, but can I ask why?" I shake my head. "You may have vervain but I can't take the chance of anyone finding me. I hope you understand." He nods "Yea I understand." I smile. "Okay well I have one more person to talk to. Good bye Rick." We stand up and he hugs me. "Take care." I nod and walk away going to my car to talk to Carol. Driving to the Forbes I turn the music down and sit in silence when I get a phone call. I answer it without looking. "Hello?" "Your leaving?" I curse under my breath. "Yes Stefan I'm leaving. No I will not tell you where." I hear him chuckle in the background. "Wow I never realized how pathetic you are. All because Damon is choosing Elena over you." Hanging up I throw my phone in the passenger seat and pull into the driveway. I get out of the car and knock on the door when Carol answers the door. "Oh good evening Amelia. What's up." I sigh. "Well I'm going out of town for a while. I need to get away for a bit. I hope you understand." She nods her head. "Of course take all the time you need. I think we will mange without you here." She chuckles. "Thank you and good bye." She smiles, "Good bye." I smile and walk back to the car and drive to Bonnie's grandmothers. I get there and she opens the door. "How can I help you?" "Is Bonnie here" She shakes her head. "No she left earlier I told her that she needs to rest." I nod and ask' "Where does Avery live?" She gasps. "Why child?" I step forward. "I'm leaving and I would like to meet up with her. I miss her." She frowns but nods for me to follow her. Going inside she grabs a piece of paper and writes something down on it. She hands it to me. "Don't give this to anyone. And good luck." I smile, "Thank you." I walk outside and jump into the car, speeding home to pack. I get home when Jenna says, "You can take my car, I will be getting yours and Elena's soon." I smile and run upstairs to pack. Getting my suitcase I pack my clothes, makeup, shoes and my vervain. Packing everything up I look at the paper Grams gave me. 1123 ave. H apartment # 936, Georgia. Smiling I stick it in my pocket and bring my stuff downstairs.

Putting everything up in the car I smile and jump into the car leaving all of this behind. On my way to see an old friend, Avery Bonnet.

I am greatly sorry for the big wait. I have been very, very busy with school. I hope that y'all understand. ~Ace
